QUOTE(tinkerbel @ Nov 7 2016, 06:56 PM) Is your AppStore USA based? I'm not sure about this. QUOTE(dreamthief @ Nov 7 2016, 09:23 PM) AppStore Malaysia is using USD by default. Nothing you can do to change that. Only a few countries will have their own currency listed in AppStore. I see, I thought they'd show different currencies for different countries.

Hmm.. someone mentioned that it's shown in USD; I don't think so but I am not 100% sure - in fact, I think he could be wrong. Can't check also because I am tied to the US store.

Doesn't matter actually.
But I just realised that a clean installed macOS does not comes with iWork.
Any suggestion on this? Cause buying the Pages/KeyNote/Numbers suite need US$60

imranYes of course! You just have to get it formatted the right way. FAT32 would allow it to be used on Windows & MacOS westlife2 more weeks? Have they charged your credit card yet? Mine got charged yesterday so I am keeping fingers crossed that it means it's been processed for shipping but otherwise on paper, I still have another 6 weeks to wait *egad*

Apple is issuing an authorization check. It's like how you go to hotel, reservation by swiping credit card but no actual charge yet. When Apple does the credit card charge, it will follow by invoice.

The amount has already been charged to my credit card. As I had received the SMS from Citibank on my purchase. When I logged in to check my credit balance. The amount charged was already minused off from my available balance. But the transaction was not shown under the unbilled or pending transaction. It will only be shown when Apple has confirmed the amount when they ship the item.

QUOTE(calvincty @ Nov 7 2016, 09:54 PM) Just got a 13" macbook pro 2016 base line without touch bar from Japan Apple Store today, the speaker is amazing and the keyboard is much more better than what I'm expected. To be honest, I even type faster and more accurate than existing mid-2012 non-retina MacBook Pro. Been using it with max scaled resolution and working great, doesn't installed some really "pro" software on it but setup-ed my daily apps for documents and programming task. Nothing to complain so far, I'm happy with what I've spent  How is your new macbook pro keyboard vs the 2016 macbook?

QUOTE(tinkerbel @ Nov 10 2016, 10:49 AM) Hmm... login using the original iTunes Account and it should be there (provided you have it in the first place) after some research on the internet, I believe the iWork only comes free if I'm the first to purchase the mac, hence login into the mac would tie the ownership to my apple ID. a clean format of the mac would not have iWork installed, sigh...
