Is it just me or the macbook air has a problem with backlight? it's very very bright compare to my mbp 13.3 but it seems like the left part of the screen receive a lot more light than the bottom right of the screen. I notice that on the mbp pro but its worse on the mba. I have a rev2 1.86 with a 9400. In this review (in spanish) they check the brightness levels on the screen, and there is a difference between center and bottom right corner (340cd/m2 vs 215cd/m2)

I did a search and could only find information about the last rendition of mbps, and I see they had problems with bleeding along the bottom part of the screen. I just got my umbp a week ago, but I've been so busy finding a place to live for grad school that I haven't had the chance to use it. I looked at it in the dark yesterday, and I'm super anal. I saw a small amount of backlight bleeding on the bottom left corner of the screen, perhaps half an inch on the left side of the screen, just in one area (not along the entire left side).I wish I could take a picture, but my digital camera is nowhere to be found. Is a small amount of backlight bleeding acceptable, or should I exchange for a new umbp?

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy Mac Pro arrived today and of the six or so times I've restarted this has happened three times:
I get the normal grey Apple logo screen then as it switches to the login screen the screen goes black. The monitor doesn't go into sleep mode, it thinks its getting a signal. If I hit the power button and put the Mac to sleep then wake it up the login screen appears.
I have recently migrated to an SSD as the system drive.
I am now finding the an "EFI available" and "Google Earth Available" notifications are blocking upper right corner of my
screen. I cant close them or remove them.

MacBookPro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.4)
With the new Quicktime, the control bar on the bottom of the screen blocks part of the video.

Today while browsing an excel spreadsheet he says part of the screen turned black, then the monitor shut off, then the monitor came back on but not video. Mean while the fans started spinning out of control. Now when he tries to turn it on, he gets power, but all that happens is the fans spinning faster and faster and faster until he turns it off. No video or anything. Just speeding fans. He fears the CPUs died since they control the fans. Any suggestions? He also says the fans were spinning unusually fast these last few days.

Now is that both input and output? If its not input then i would need one of those fast track things im guessing.
I have both input and output on my hackintosh which I can use to record my electric guitar on GarageBand.
I hope I don't have to buy a fast track as not sure how it would run over a USB hub.
how to connect my macbook air to my electric guitar because i would like to record with my mac but i need your help to do it.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI was an owner of a white macbook for just over a year until the motherboard decided to give up the ghost... So I eventually bought myself a new 13" Macbook Pro. Everything was going just beautifully, until I realised when I was charging it, I had this weird electrical current going through all the aluminum.First of all the first two things that came to mind was. What's the computer and most importantly MY health going to be like if its exposed to all this! Anyway. I read a few threads, and they were talking about the "Grounding" problem. Luckily I got my old macbook charger out and plugged it in.. The problem went! So I was then thinking on where in the charger lied the problem? So I took the cable part from the Megasafe to the socket from my macbook, and then put it into my macbook pro Megasafe... and everything worked brilliantly! I'm no genius, however if you guys feel that tingly electrical/static current going through you're MBP, go and buy yourself a new cable. However as Apple is so popular, I'm sure if you try one of you're friends (As they will undoubtably have one) and see if it is that the problem. In anycase, I'm very happy with my Macbook Pro Apple make some awesome products. Bill Gates should just pack up and go fishing if you ask me. He can never compete with Me old mate Steve

Has anyone had this before and how can `i go about solving this problem?
I have the cable that connects my guitar to my mac, but I do not know how to get garageband to recognise that the instrument is connected.

I´m planing to buy a macbook pro retina display, and I am wondering if I can connect my electric guitar to it since it doesn´t have an audio line in, only a headphone port?

I recently traveled to Europe with a MacBook Pro, and plugged it into the outlet with a travel converter. My understanding is that the brick on the magsafe cable works as a transformer and it is safe to plug into a European outlet. I've never had a problem with other laptops.
Everything worked fine with the machine, except I could always feel an "electric" sensation through my hands when touching the aluminum case. This was especially apparent when running my fingers across the top -- it was as if I could feel an electric current running through the case.
This seemed harmless, and I ran the computer without fail during my time abroad. My question is out of curiosity -- is this sensation normal? What exactly is it?
I took the plunge and got a MBP 13 (5,5) in October. Its all going well except for the same problem that recurs.
The problem is that when plugged in via magsafe i recieve a mild tingling throughout the shell. This first happened a week after I got it but I solved it by using the long lead instead of the smaller plug. But now even the longer lead which is supposed to remove the issue still gives me the same vibration/electric shock feeling. Its NOT minor, I feel it when its plugged in and it hurts! I get a headache when it does this.
The screen saver that this produces are beautiful but is it safe? It works via your computer communicating with hundreds of computers around the world?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've linked my guitar up to GarageBand and am trying to get a setting which sounds metal like, but at the same time sounds clear and i'm failing. It produces a good sound but its so full of noise its unbelievable.
The guitar has no noise when its on a setting which doesn't have distortion/fuzz or gain on it, but then i don't have a metal sound.
Does anyone have any idea how i can make such a setting?
Picked this up from the Apple Store in London a few day ago and I've been having some trouble getting my electric guitar to work with my mbp.
When I plug everything up and try and play it records through the mic on the mbp and not through the pickups.
In system pref>sound>input I have line out selected along with the volume all they way to the write.
What am I missing here?
My mouse wire (or cable, or whatever..) is kind of messed up with the wire showing on the connection to the mouse and basically in the middle of the wire towards the USB connection to the CPU. It's the Apple mouse.. will I get an electric shock if I touch it while it's on? It's kind of sounds funny that I'd touch it but you know ..
I have electrical tape I don't know if that's necessary.
Guys, I have touched on my iMac 27 on the USB cable and I have got an electric current passing over me. My feet were naked. When I got my shoes back the problem gone. Is this normal? Is it safe for my iMac and external devices?

I don't know if this is something to be worried about but I notice that when the tip of the display port cord ( from the ACD ) touches the metal frame of my MacBook Pro there is a tiny blue arch of electricity visible. Well, I just bumped that cord into the frame of the MBP and as soon as that happened the computer completely shut off, it just went to a black screen and turned back on when I connected it via AC outlet. When the computer started back up the clock was messed up ( 2008 date ) and it had forgotten all of my WIFI passwords.
I was just wondering why this happens?
The plastic part connecting the screen and the keyboard in my MBP has a crack! i don't know were it comes from, i have never droped it or mishandled my computer in any way. Will a repair be covered by the warranty?

I have an electric guitar plugged into the instrument input of an Apogee Duet recording interface.
If I add a "real instrument" track, then I can select the input channel in the "track info" pane in GB. Works fine, I can hear the guitar. But I can't access the various guitar effects and models.
To do that I create an "electric guitar" track instead. However, when I do that, I don't see any option to select the input channel in the track info pane.
And I don't hear any sound. Apple help just says I should "select the input channel in the track info pane" but I don't see it there, like it is for a "real instrument"...
what's going on?
I just made the transition from PC and bought a MBP Santa Rosa 2.2Ghz Duo with 2 keys(the cursor down and right) that do not work. Presumably the entire keyboard needs replacement. Does anyone know if 922-8035 the same as 922-7183? Several sites advertise them together, and others individually. The reason this is important is the price discrepancy, plus I want to get a Russian (Cyrillic) keyboard and there is a good one listed as 922-7183 but I want to make sure it is the same as 922-8035.
