Now you are getting posts in this thread 'ya ... i've had problems at some point as well'. The grass is not greener on the other side.

It's all going to be fixed. I'm certain you're already on this, but I would be keeping VERY close contact with the on-line store you ordered it from. In fact, nicely breathing down their necks at all times would be order. A brand new one is required...anything less wouldn't be sufficient (IMO). I have all MAC (Macbook Pro, screens, etc, which I bought at the store, not on line) and I've been very happy with their products and service. Never had problems so far (knock wood - tap on head LOL). I’m so sorry Jodi! It’s all going to be fixed.

Computer issues can be a nightmare ESPECIALLY to photographers since we depend so heavily on them for our lively hood. I have 3 external hard drives connected to my hp for my photos and biz documents. No matter what brand you have, it seems like they all have problems at one time or another. I hope that this is all resolved quickly for you. I also wanted to say that maybe that one particular Apple store was a problem, and hopefully a call to the company's customer service will solve the issue. Good luck. So sorry to hear this, Jodi.

I have been a mac user for three years and have had my MAD moments with Apple, but I have no desire to go back to a pc. The MP is my powerhorse too! I would recommend getting your biz images in Aperture or Lightroom - well suited to workflow for professionals. ....hang in there!! What a horrible experience.
