• Screen freezes randomly (Macbook Pro retina 13 inches early 2015)

  MacBook Pro (retina, 13 inches, early 2015)

  OS X Version of El Capitan 10.11.4

  Processor: Intel Core i5 at 2.9 GHz

  Memory: 8 GB 1867 MHz DDR3

  Graphics card: Intel Graphics Iris 6100 1536 MB

  
  

  I bought this MacBook on the Apple store online a year ago, and I must say it has been a very reliable machine up to now. It starts way faster that any laptop I have ever used before.

  However, recently to update my OS on the 10.11.4 version, my screen freezes randomly. The keyboard and trackpad are both unresponsive.  Closing the cover does nothing either, since the macbook won't sleep normally as it would be. The only solution I had was to hold down the power button to force it to close.  This has been extremely frustrating and made me lose valuable data too.  I ran the Diagnostics of Apple and the only error seems to be the battery issue. It has been said, however, that it should not affect the performance of the computer.

  
  

  If someone has encountered this problem, great tips, thank you would be much appreciated!
  

  
  

  Hey, I bought the same macbook 6 months ago, the macbook had several recurring problems, graphic and audio glitches, what happened was, sometimes (for watching movies, or playing games) the screen went black with a red line on the left side of the screen, then after 2-3 seconds screen is returned to normal, and then there was a glitch-audio distortion that attaches after 10 seconds - 1 min.

  I have tried to solve this problem, because to the 4months, 2 authorized repair shops are rendered as well an apple store, they told me that the tests have said everything was perfect, they failed to reproduce this problem, and that is probably a software problem, it wasn't, because I did everything to eliminate the risk that this was a clean install os software problem to use different browsers, readers different flash etc.

  About a month and a half my macbook froze for the first time exactly like yours, frozen screen, slider became unresponsive, caps lock light insensitive, trackpad locked (didn t click), closing the screen was always on the apple logo. I did exactly what you were doing, forced to shutdown by pressing the power button.

  I was furious, thinking that this is an escalation of the hardware failure and he was in awe of this next step is to "die".

  The next time he "froze" again, I went to the apple store nearby with the macbook in a frozen state and demanded that they fix it, I insisted the guy writes it down and describe the exact condition of the macbook was when I took it to them, and he said that they will run tests and see When I tell him that it is the "millionth" time test you my macbook, he said, that even if the tests show nothing they will replace the logic board, we signed a "service record" who says that they will replace the logic board and the battery and for the first time that I was happy they will finally fix.

  I was wrong, they called me a week later and say we took some tests and everything is ok, it was the last straw, I did not pick up the macbook and said that I will not pick up unless they fix it.

  Next day I went to the store and made a big fuzz, saying: I have contacted the Ombudsman, and I'll still take legal action if they didn't fixed it the next day.

  Next day I went and they had replaced the logic board so the top-case with battery.

  The reason I say this is, their support at least in my case, it was terrible to the point that I preferred to throw the macbook in the trash and never look back, you can't really imagine how long it took me to convince to repair or replace, for 4months I was on the phone or online chat and was flowing like a ball from one to the other.

  If you are still under warranty, go directly to the apple store and request a fix, when I say request, do not be polite, don't bite on phrases like "we will do everything, so you won't have to come back again," go aggressive mode, because at least in my case, be polite did not help, the best thing would be, when it freezes again not turn off it take it straight to the apple store.

  Another thing is, I had a battery problem when running the diagnostics, whenever I gave it to them they said oh "battery is ok, sometimes the tests fail," my argument? If the tests fail how do you rely on them...

  Go and demand, it is their responsibility to fix, 3 and a half months being polite is not done, I'm aggressive and stares at me in 1 week.

  Good luck

• Use the iPad pro as a second screen on a Macbook Pro 2009 with OSX running on it.

  Hello
  I am to buy an iPad Pro and I would like to know if there is a chance that it might be connected as a second monitor on a Macbook Pro 2009 running Mac OS x Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
  Thanks in advance for your help.

  M.

  Hello

  You cannot connect them with wires. You can, however, all these 2 combinations of applications, use using your wifi home network:

  http://Lifehacker.com/the-best-second-screen-app-for-iPad-1706351639

  http://getidisplay.com/

  However, they all need two OS 10.9 (Mavericks) or later, which means that the configuration is not possible under Snow leopard.

  Your Macbook Pro supports the latest OS X (El capitan), you can update, although it will significantly slow down your computer as well unless you add an SSD.

  See you soon,.

• Fuzzy screen of retina MacBook Pro problem

  Hello

  My MacBook Pro (retina, mid-2012) recently had this issue on the screen:

  

  Searched the Internet for similar cases, I think that this problem with the anti glare coating will get compensation as stated on https://www.apple.com/support/macbookpro-videoissues/

  But when I bring my Macbook to the Apple authorized service provider in my area, they said I have to wait this blurred more and more problem to be replaced. Can I help for this to feel really annoying because they appear to the center of the screen?

  There is a test VST of pass/fail for the problem that is described in the link you posted.  This test has been run?  If so, what were the results?  If the test was not performed, it should be.

  Ciao.

• Black Ops 3 on Macbook Pro

  So I recently bought black ops 3 for my Macbook Pro 15 inch retina display, and the thing is, sometimes it works sometimes it is not, as once I have played several zombies matches without any problems, but now I can't even stay on key options for a few seconds before it crashes.

  I tried to get help from the steam, but people keep insisting that it is because I have the game on your laptop.

  We played this game on their front mac that can help me with this problem?

  Data sheet:

  Processor: Intel Core i7-4770HQ CPU @ 2.20 GHz

  RAM: 16.0 GB

  System type: 64-bit OS, 64-bit processor

  Graphics card: Intel Pro Iris 1536 MB

  MacBook Pro (retina, 15 inch, mid-2015)

  If the developers of the game say you that your MBP is insufficient to start the game, which is probably true and you get a more powerful computer to play the game on.

  Incidentally do not post the same problem twice. There is no that confuse everyone. I suggested that guests remove your duplicate message.

• Black screen after hibernation - Satellite Pro A120 mode

  I have the following on my A120 problem:

  My Satellite Pro A 120 with professional vista crashes after I close the lid.
  The current settings in the power management standby is extended when the lid is closed, but I also tried with the sleep settings.

  After I opened my top once again, black screen appears and restart windows.
  Vista offers a solution online after the accident, but nothing appears as a result of the audit.

  Someone had this problem?
  I would appreciate any kind of advice.

  Hello

  I see you are using Vista on this laptop.
  This laptop has been pre-installed with Windows XP. Am I wrong?

  It would be very interesting to know if the same thing happens with the OS pre-installed Toshiba. Please check this!

  That say these issues can be caused by wrong or not entirely compatible graphics driver or lack of MS patches/fixes.

  I recommend checking out the various graphics and update the operating system drivers to the last State

  Best regards

• Crack of 1 pixel screen MacBook Pro early 2015

  Hi all

  I own a MacBook Pro of the 2015 at the beginning and I recently discovered a problem with the retina display (so-called "gorilla glass").

  I only have the MacBook since January this year, and I have recently discovered a small hole about 1 pixel wide screen. It seems that the screen is cracked and I see directly in the hole of the next layer of the screen. At first, I thought it was just some dust and I tried to clean it up, but it did not help.

  I did some research and saw that people also had similar problems and sudently woke up seeing these annoying small cracks on the screen.

  Here are some videos and pictures of what it looks like:

  https://goo.GL/photos/LthBkUrM9eWDs5qM8

  What I'm curious to know, is if this applies to the guarantee and if I can send it to apple so that they can change my screen.

  I understand that it looks like it was an accident made by me, but it's not.

  I can still use the MacBook, but that little crack is so boring, it's like a distraction.

  Anyone apple support can help me with this? The nature of my question is eligible for the guarantee of apple?

  You better Genius Bar appointment to show the screen of your MacBook Pro and ask if she applies for warranty.

  I think you should pay for the cost of replacement LCD, however.

• How can I update my processing power/RAM on my MacBook Pro 2013?

  Let me preface this by saying I know almost nothing about computers so please excuse my terminology.

  I have a screen Retina 13 '' MacBook Pro that I bought in 2014 (I think it was the 2013 model). At the time, I didn't need a lot of storage so I bought the less option (8 GB perhaps?). Recently, I changed into a main associated design and have been downloading a lot of different programs. With full download Adobe Creative Suite I have been using SketchUp, Rhino and AutoCAD to name a few.

  My projects often require me to work in Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and Rhino at the same time but when I do so my computer is extremely slow and sometimes one or more programs unexpectedly closes.

  Given all this information, what are my options to improve the speed and reliability of my MacBook?

  Your options are limited. You cannot upgrade RAM or CPU. Theoretically, you could install more storage, but I don't think that's worth it. Given the software that depend on you, I sell the MBP and buy something bigger and faster (not necessarily a Mac).

• Strange intermittent problem with macbook pro

  Hey there ppl.

  So, I have a Macbook Pro (15-inch, mid-2014, retina), processor i7 2.2 GHz, 16 GB of memory. Running OS X El Capitan.

  My problem is a strange, because it is only intermittently. ID say like 10-15% of the time. But its very frustrating and annoying when it does and because I am working on my computer (poker), it's also costing me. in any case, the problem usually occurs after I've been using the computer for 1, 5-3 hours or more. Usually ill be playing poker online, listen to spotify and use of the internet for stuff randomly. Everything will be fine and then suddenly ill notice that my mouse cursor will be suddenly shot through the screen occasionally. as ill be goes well with the cursor but it'll jump to the left, a couple of inches or more. Also bad note that some of my habit of 'clicks' record, so ill use the calculator for example and badly want to press 543 and maybe 5 records, but when I go to click on the 4 it does not work, and ill have to like wait a second, then click New to register the click.

  Also, if im typing something, as in poker, I have sometimes to take note of the way in which an opponent has played a helping hand or whatever, a letter or a space press custom register, so ill be typing a phrase and the space bar is and I'll have to press the key once the couple , then a letter will not register, etc.. Sound very disorienting and made it difficult to continue the task IM because it does not smoothly because of the LAG, unregistered, mouse jumping, etc.

  IM really not sure of what the root of the problem and what it is. Ive has run the malware anti-malware bytes, but that has not solved the problem. Usually when that happens ill try to restart the computer, or stop and return back but generally the problem persists. Then, after some time, maybe 20 to 45 minutes or so, when I try to use the computer it works normally with any of these problems.

  Very bizzare. Any help or insight is appreciated, let me know if you need more information

  Good afternoon brandonfrommililani,.

  Thanks for letting us know about the problem you are having with your cursor jumps erratically on the screen of your MacBook Pro.  The resources below provides some initial troubleshooting steps, you can try at this address.  I suppose that you work with the trackpad on your MacBook Pro.  In addition to the steps suggested below, try to connect a wired mouse to your computer to exclude Wireless interference.

  If your pointer is nervous when you use a trackpad, Magic Mouse or Magic Trackpad

  Best,
