mavericks is free, don't want that?

anyway, go to App Store, hold down Option key and click on Mountain Lion purchase button to download the dmg.

your mba 2013 comes default with ML right? it should be shown in your purchase tab

I have already erase the os partition of the mba, don't have access to app store. Yes the mba comes default with ml.

On my rmbp, i can't download maverick. it prompt this is not available for your machine.

Was on live chat with apple last night, but the steps they advised are blocked by singnet proxy.

Hi all, I've having some problems with my magic mouse. The arrow doesn't move. I replaced new batteries and clean the mouse but it still doesn't work. I can click and scroll up and down though. Anyone had the same issues before?

try on another system? if cannot means spoil liao
within warranty just bring down to service centre n get it changed
but sometimes magic mouse stock v low also. need to come back. so i suggest call up (if they pick up call) n then frm there see go which outlet exchanged. only the ones at wheelock , 313 the co will be able to do exchange on the spot if they have stock. another co (can't rem the name now) is put there, wait for new stock comes n exchanged.

i actually changed mine because of the button issue, the old one i have is longer metal part so i can off/on easily but new sets r shorter on/off button. managed to finally get one i like at 313. the only 1 also. (btw orchard now dengue red alert)

Can't move the cursor. Guess the lens is spoiled. But I didn't even drop it.
My other USB mouse also spoil at the same time, keeps double clicking.

I used to see this selling in the local apple stores. The technology behind the device is quite universal actually, it converts the signal into digital which is then displayed on the computer. I'm using Slingbox with Starhub currently, it works the same way but its intended for remote viewing.

Mac Wireless Keyboard pairing request

I have a question to ask about apple wireless keyboard.
I am able to detect my wireless keyboard (discoverable mode) in my bluetooth icon but whenever I tried typing the keys upon pairing request, nothing shows up (no response).
I notice the green light had double blinks each time the green light flashes.
Batteries were new.
I bought this keyboard not long ago and I hope it's not faulty.

Does anyone face the same problem as me or is it a common issues face by people using apple wireless keyboards? Thanks!
