MacBook Pro :: 2012 With Retina Display Won't Recognize External Hard Drive
Jun 20, 2012I have 2 Macbook Pro's, a 2009 and this brand new one I got today. My external hard drive is a 1 TB clickfree. It has worked for months on my old Mac but when I plug it into my new mac it doesn't even show up in finder or disk utility. I tried the USB ports with another device and they work fine. So it isn't a hard ware issue. The cables are USB 3.0. The external hard drive model number is HD2037N3.I have tried taking everything off (huge pain) and reformatting the drive and still it doesn't recognize it! how I can get my Mac to recognize it?

MacBook Pro :: Retina (Mid 2012) Display Doesn't Work Occasionally / Random Restarts
Sep 4, 2014I have some issue with my 2012 Macbook Pro Retina. The screen intermittently decides to just not work. Sometimes on startup i hear the start up noise but the screen doesn't turn on. I am able to remote into the computer when the screen doesn't work. I can't seem to find any rhyme or reason as to when it works and when it doesn't. I've reset the PRAM and SMC sometimes that will bring the screen back sometimes not. Â

MacBook Pro :: Retina Display Refresh - Open A New Window, Not Everything Shows Up?
Jun 20, 2012My MacBook Pro Retina Display laptop is having display refresh issues. hard to explain whats going on, but its basicly lagging. When I open a new window, not everything shows up, sometimes only a button will show up. If the whole window does show up and I try to move it, the frame will be ghosted where every I move it. The only way I found to fix this is to restart the computer.Â
Its completely updated
I tried turning off the automatic graphics switching

MacBook Pro :: Wifi Very Slow On 2012 Retina?
Jul 4, 2012i just got my 2012 Retina MBP and i absolutely love it. there's one problem though. wifi is EXTREMELY slow.
we have a campus-wide 802.11n network, all my other devices work flawlessly.
can i somehow force my MBP NOT to use the 5 GHz band but to stay at 2.4 GHz? I believe i somewhere read that this could fix the problem. ethernet via thunderbolt works as supposed.

MacBook Pro :: 2012 Retina Screen Getting Scrambled?
Sep 4, 2014I've been using my MacBook Pro 2012 Retina with an external monitor lately with the lid closed. Today I tried open the lid without having the external monitor connected and that worked fine for a few minutes. But then the screen got "scrambled".... It's hard to explain but it seems that some pixels are dragged vertically. See attached image. Doesn't seem to stop doing this. If I restart the computer it might look OK for a few seconds, but then it will start looking like this again. If I shut down the computer and wait a while until I turn it back on, it will stay OK longer, but will eventually start getting "scrambled" again.Â
Just as I was writing this question, using my external monitor, the scramble effect stopped and my MacBook screen returned to normal. Not sure how long it's going to last and I would still like to know more about this.Â
My MacBook is also really hot right above the F3-F7 keys.Â

MacBook Pro :: Retina Mid 2012 - Powers Off While Sleeping
Aug 29, 2014I have a recently-purchased MBP Retina 15 inch from Mid 2012.Â
Every time that I put my laptop laptop to sleep while it is on battery, it sleeps fine for about an hour. After an hour or so, I hear the boot sound come from the laptop. When I open the screen at that point, the laptop is powered off. I have to power up the laptop. The laptop is not in hibernate mode, but has actually shut down (pressing other keys on the keyboard doesn't wake it up, I have to use the power button). Â
Applications start back up when I log in, however for example VMWare has rudely powered off (so I lose the state of my virtual machines), and any terminal programs that I was running (even if I just had a document open in 'vi') are also terminated.Â
I wonder, what causes this behavior? Is my system defective in some way, or is there an OS tweak in Mavericks to stop the computer from rudely powering off/force quitting all open apps in the process?Â
I've read that OS X now likes to hibernate laptops after an hour, but clearly hibernation isn't what's happening here.Â

MacBook Pro :: How Do Softwares That Aren't Retina Compatible Look On Retina Display
Jun 12, 2012How do software that aren't retina compatible yet look on the MBP Retina Display? From my own experience as a developer when using regular sized images and resolutions on the iPhone 4, they come out as blurry. I was thinking perhaps the same thing will occur if the software isn't retina compatible? I e 2x in GUI size and scaled down?

MacBook Pro :: External Display Is Not Waking / Retina Display Flashes Through Different Screen Views
Sep 4, 2014My external display (HP w2207) seems to conflict with my MacBook Pro (15 inch Retina display, early 2013) since I upgraded MacBook OS to 10.9.4.The external display works at initial boot of Mac but does not work after OS sleeps and I attempt to awaken, and while the external display is not waking, the Retina display flashes through different screen views, which only partially reflect my normal screen, or do not reflect my normal screen at all.Â

MacBook :: Putting Display To Sleep On New With Retina Display?
Jun 16, 2012I'm used to using the keystrokes control-shift-eject to put the display to sleep without activating the screensaver or putting the whole computer to sleep.Â
Since the new Macbook Pro with Retina Display lacks an eject key, the best I have been able to do is set a hot corner. I don't like this as much -- especially since it is possible to trigger the hot corner without intending to.

MacBook Pro :: Getting The Flickering Display - Mid-2012?
Jun 29, 2012There are random black horizontal lines, constantly on the screen.When I leave the setting of 1280x800 (default), the defects disappear, only small distortions, which makes me think that the error can be corrected via software update. As the Lion was on 10.7.3, I upgraded to 10.7.4 to see if improved. But the errors persists.At the end of the video, the lines are most striking, becoming impossible to work.Â

MacBook Pro :: Mid 2012 Pro External VGA Display Corrupt?
Jun 14, 2012I received my shiny new 13" macbook pro today and bought a mini displayport to vga connector from a local store. Unofrtunately my external display of choice shows some strange images when connected. It shows the desktop but divided into several shifted. Can't really describe it but i would say the screen is 1000 pixels wide it show them in the following order:-
100;300-600;800-1000;800-1000;800-1000;Â

MacBook Pro :: Retina Display - Is 8GB Good Enough
Jun 14, 2012I can't imagine why I would need any more than 8GB since I'm not a professional photographer or video editor or whatever, so I'm planning on going with the base model. Smart idea? The only reason I'm even considering getting the 16GB is because the RAM isn't upgradable and I'm somewhat scared I might regret not getting the 16GB when the computer's a bit older and 16GB start to become the standard amount of RAM- if that ever happens?

Will the "retina-ready" apps look just fine on the retina and enormous on the external?
View 1 Replies View RelatedMagsafe 2 For Retina Display Macbook Pro
Jun 15, 2012I've had two different MacBook Pro's since 2006.I went through 4 magsafe power adapters as the cable coming straight off the connector always began to permanently bend at the magsafe connection point such that I didn't trust it from an electrical safety point of view (after seeing one arc at that point a time or two).Then when I bought what would be my 5th power adapter, much to my positive surprise, Apple had done a redesign that had the cable coming out at a right angle with repect to the way the older ones had the cable come out.They also beefed up how the cable comes out of the magsafe end.Now I see a picture of the 85W power adapter for the new Retina display macbook pro I am planning to buy soon. And it looks like they've reverted to the old "wire straight out from the connector" approach.
That would be a significant step backward for me as where I have to plug in my mac (to the right of where I sit) having a straight cable coming out from the left of the mac is just going to cause me to start wasting power adapters again.Might I be able to continue to use the 85W power adapter I currently have on my 17 inch 2009 macbook pro? And it's not the original power adapter but one I bought maybe in 2011 or so.I love this one where the cable leaves in the direction heading out away from the top of the mac rather than the ones that came out straight to the left.And the picture of the new one appears to come out straight to the left again.And what do you even call the power adapter I have that I bought in about 2011 where the cable comes out at a right angle to the magsafe connector itself?

MacBook Pro :: Retina Display Burn-in?
Jun 16, 2012I first noticed this after my MBP [Retina] had gone to sleep, but: when returning to the login screen (since I have it set to require a password whenever the computer is idle long enough) I noticed what appeared to a very faint ghosting primarily noticeable on darker backgrounds. After messing around with it a bit, there seems to be a fairly consistent in-display ghosting that occurs without much time at all; I was able to leave my screen on (a little above half-brightness) for about 10-15 minutes and the ghosted "burn" would be of the screen I left it on (which I deliberately reconfigured so that everything would be a new position). Is this a normal thing that I just have to get used to? It's not really noticeable at all in standard use.
