Hi.. would like to check, which software you guys using for NTFS for Mac?

Paragon or Tuxera, or any other software? i would like to purchase for my Macbook. Thanks in Advance.

Wow pretty shitty repair from Mac City 1 utama.
Received my rMBP last week after sending in for repair. Less than a week received it back after they found:
1) SSD Card Port failed (Replaced I/O board)
2) System Error (Advice to reformat hard disk)

So after 2 days of using my returned rMBP, the SAME PROBLEM happened again!
Here are some nice pretty colourful pics to share...







So i did a diagnostic test and got this, which i'm sure is not the reason for the colourful screens, but still... battery problems after 5 months?? FFS



Sent back my rMBP to Mac City for repair and wasn't too happy. The counter staff wasn't that friendly and insisted previously there was a system error which requires a reformat and i didn't allow them to reformat hence the problem. RIGHT, like i'd pay them RM150 just to reformat when i could do it myself.

Just called them again on the status and i was told that my Logic Board had problems and they just ordered a replacement which will take a week.
Seriously? They didn't detect that during the 1st service? What kind of sloppy diagnostic service did they conduct the first time?

Not happy with Apple so far... had been using Dell notebooks for more than a decade and all my notebooks last me at least 4 years without any issues while a 5 month old rMBP is giving me crap..

hello guys. new macbook pro user here! after 16 years of using Windows platform, now i made a jump to give Mac OS a try.

so far, im getting a good experience with this sexy thing. from the very start of booting my macbook, i already amazed with its speed. damn weh 3 seconds to get into login. not gonna happen in Windows platform. haha

Casual usage like web browsing, watching movies, listening to music while doing my work, are quite smooth. Later I will try how this macbook handle development tools and adobe stuff like android studio, localhost, photoshop, AI, etc.

as a new macbook user, there are couple of things that i want to know:

1. is it safe if I installed cracked apps? (appdn.net, cmacapps.com, macbed.com)
2. Do I need any antivirus software installed on my macbook?
3. Is it a must to install utility, optimizer apps like cleanmymac?
4. should i buy applecare? is it worth it?

I have googled those questions. just want to know opinions from you guys too. thanks.

2. no need antivirus software for osx
4.please buy applecare if you have extra budget.

Mac City repair is total shite but we don't have much choices. You could try The Good Guys at Centrepoint.

i recommend you send it to northpoint midvalley they have very good service.

my friend send his to them for fix screen coating problem, they even replace speaker as well after they finish diagnostic test and found out speaker has problem also.

Question number 1 and 3? haha

is there any specific period of time for buying the applecare? my friends said that you can only buy the applecare for your macbook while it still under the 1-year warranty. If out of warranty, you cannot apply the applecare on your macbook. can you confirm on this?

thanks.

1 & 3 need wait pro to answer. as i also just jump to macbook

you have to active before first year warranty expire

hahaha alright we wait until pro come check in. wahh geng! what make you change to Mac OS?

hahahaa just to try something new. i have 1 macbook and 1 hp probook

But they are not under authorised apple service center right?

Thanks for the info, pray to God I won't have to send in for another service after this or I'll raise hell with Apple support to replace a new rMBP...

hahaha if they replace for a new i dont mind go and send for few more times

i always sceptical about repair quality of this mac city..

If u deal with apple care online directly it will be ok, but deal with dealer, good luck.

?? I've been in contact with Apple care online and they keep telling me to go to the authorised service center close to me, namely 1utama mac city.

Serious? That's the repair procedure? Ic.

My friend also called apple care line they ask him to go authorized reseller

Yea I complained and the "friendly helpful" guy was telling me the consumer law is different in diff country...

We need to get together and lodge a formal complaint against Mac City. Get Apple to drop them as an AASP because they're doing such a piss poor job.
