Is there a Mac for Dummies support line?

Filed under: New Mac Users — Tags: — Care Expert @ 3:53 am January 29, 2013

Users who are totally new to the world of Mac® computers may be a lot of things, but one thing they are most certainly not are dummies. Mac for beginners users can understandably have a difficult time using their new hardware and software at first, especially if they’ve just completed migrating over from the Microsoft Windows operating system.

Because of this, it is important for new Mac users to realize that there is a better way to get Mac support than by searching for a “Mac for Dummies” book.

Should you call Apple Help desk or someone else?

Filed under: Tech Support for Mac — Tags: — Care Expert @ 3:20 am January 23, 2013

One of the many things that Apple® is known for is first-rate customer service. Apple provides a variety of different avenues for customers to get support including online, telephone and in-person options. That top quality support, however, doesn’t come cheap. While technicians at an Apple Store location can certainly help Mac® for beginner users solve basic problems in a couple of seconds, any issues that is more intensive than a general knowledge question will often require a lot of time – and money.

Third party support is classified as any support for Apple products that isn’t provided by Apple themselves. (more…)



Mac for Beginners: Should you Trust Third Party Mac Tech Support?

Filed under: Tech Support for Mac — Tags: — Care Expert @ 5:16 am January 21, 2013

Is third party Mac® tech support really a good option for Mac for beginners–or for anybody? It is if you can find the right option. But the “right option” is different for different people. How do you know what’s best for you?

There are some people who go “100% Official” all the way. These people will only call the official Mac tech support line, or go to an Apple® Store, when they have any problems or questions.

There’s nothing wrong with this…for them. But most of us don’t want to spend almost $50 per incident with the “official” Apple tech support (and even those who have the money, often think this price is steep). (more…)



Are you looking for Apple Chat Support?

Filed under: New Mac Users,Tech Support for Mac — Tags: , — Care Expert @ 8:20 am January 19, 2013

Sometimes a computer-related problem can be too difficult to fix on your own but not complicated enough to warrant spending money to have an expert technician come out to your home. Likewise, the issue may not be serious enough to even warrant spending minutes or even hours on hold to wait for a telephone support specialist. When those types of computer issues arise, one great avenue for troubleshooting is Apple® chat support.

Just because chat support for Apple products is a convenient way to fix issues doesn’t mean that it is a technology that is widely supported. Many third party services do not offer chat support of any kind. (more…)



Mac for Beginners: Are You Tired of Searching for Free Help?

Filed under: New Mac Users — Care Expert @ 2:25 am January 18, 2013

Free, good help for Apple® computers can be difficult to find when it comes to Mac® for beginners. In fact, you may have noticed that it is pretty much impossible!

It’s not surprising that so many people look for free help online for their Apple products (especially when it comes to Mac for beginners). The operating system is new to us, and more than a little confusing at times. The hardware looks different and just plain is different than what we’re used to from our PCs.

And to top it all off, the official Apple Mac tech support costs nearly $50 for a single incident of support–as if we didn’t pay enough for our Mac computers to begin with! (more…)



Do you need help with Mac Computers?

Filed under: New Mac Users — Care Expert @ 3:33 am January 17, 2013

Setting up a new computer in your home can be both an exciting and stressful time. Each new computer will have its own special quirks, which is something that is especially true if you’re migrating to an entirely new operating system. The fundamentals of the Windows operating system and Mac OS X® may be the same, for example, but they are drastically different in almost every other way that you can imagine. Because of this, it is totally natural for new users to have a difficult time in the first few days, weeks and even months after bringing a new machine into their homes.

StartOnMac technical support services were specifically designed to help new Mac® users make both a quick and easy transition from their old Windows-based personal computers to their new Mac computer. The help with Mac services offered by StartOnMac can be separated into two distinct categories. (more…)

Filed under: New Mac Users — Care Expert @ 2:12 am January 10, 2013
