Help: What is causing these whirring sounds! The MacBook Pro 13, retina display. Bought December 2014.

Help: What is causing those whirring sounds that started today! I have a MacBook Pro 13 ", the retina display. I bought my MBP on 28/12/2014; is today 23/12/2015, so I'm in a one year warranty. I ran a diagnostic equipment this morning and she said my battery needed replacement, but I can't imagine a battery would create a whirring sound. Thoughts/ideas? Thank you!

PS - Apple needs better/more emoticons, IMO.

If the said hardware diagnostic test the batteries need maintenance, I suggest that you call your Apple store to make an appointment to have them check the battery. When you bring it ask them about whirring sounds.

  • I think to buy a new MacBook to replace my MacBook pro mid-2010, which still runs but becomes slow.  They say the current MacBook pro without retina display (which I don't think I need) is an old system and may be obsolete soon - true?

    I'm buying a new MacBook to replace my mid-2010 MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel core 2 duo, 4 GB of memory, which always runs, but becomes slow.   I don't think I need retina display (if I have a lot of photos and films on the subject), but I was told that the MacBook Pro without screen retina was an old system that Apple could not support much longer. Is this true?

    Apple only can answer such a question, and the terms of use for these forums discourage us discuss what Apple plans to do.

    I too have a MBP 2010.  I installed an SSD and that increased performance.  Consider that as an option.

    You may experience other problems that slows down your MBP.  Before commit you the important cash for a new MBP, examine the potential software problems that may be responsible for the poor performance.  With the SSD, my 2010 works better than the day he came out of the box.

  • gauge the battery to the boot screen and battery on report menu conflicting Details about the level of the battery. The gauge from the battery to the Starter incorrectly displays the low battery level that prevent the macbook pro battery retina start

    gauge the battery to the boot screen and battery on report menu conflicting Details about the level of the battery. The gauge from the battery to the Starter incorrectly displays the low battery level that prevent the start of the battery. This happens on macbook pro retina 13 inches

    When I try to startup macbook pro retina in battery mode, it will fail to start showing low battery level and an indicator to recharge the battery. It does not start on battery. When I then connect via the power cable at startup (and check the battery level), monitor of battery in the menu bar indicates that the battery is charged to the top.

    It gets really frustrating and remove my ability to use the macbook pro retina as a truly portable device...

    Appreciate any help on this

  • 2015 the Macbook Pro 13 Retina El Capitan freezes randomly

    Hello

    I have a Macbook Pro 13 2015 with the Retina display. I plug in December. It has the most recent update of El Capitan (OSX 10.11.4). I have 91.8 GB of free space on the SSD drive. Around a month ago, freezes bad has started to happen. Frost occur generally when I'm browsing Safari, I do not know if it has nothing to do with YouTube videos, but maybe it's interesting to note that I usually have a tab open in Safari that's YouTube when it happens (but not always). Today, I already had 2 freezes, before one arrived, I read an article and it happened (a YouTube tab was open in Safari, however, the video did not play for the moment when frost arrived). The second time, watched a YouTube video, and freezing that happened when I clicked on the time bar to make the video at a specific time. Frost usually occurs when I interact with something like that, opening of a new video in YouTube (such as clicking a recommendation of video on the right panel), or interact with the video itself. Note, after I restarted the computer, the previous video is one which opens in Safari, if frost has occurred during playback of the video which freezes just after I started playing.

    However, it is not only Safari which can cause freezing. There was a specific case, when I looked at the images in the Photos app. There were many of them, and I pressed the arrow left and right to navigate through them. Then he suddenly freezes the whole system, couldn't get out of the application or anything. Such a freeze is really bad, I can't interact with the computer somehow, the mouse cursor freezes, time freezes in the status bar, no Cmd + space for Spotlight, no physical reaction buttons whatsoever. Only option is to wait a few minutes (in order to clearly identify the process before and during the system failure in the newspaper), and then press and hold the power button until the machine stops.

    I thought first of all it is a software problem, I did a complete reinstallation of the system (formatted the SSD drive, downloaded Yosemite, then upgraded to El Capitan, once again). I had 2 weeks of calm, but today it happened again (2 times so far). I share the newspaper of queries system log: all messages. The last frost that happened at 13:31, and I waited until 13:37 to restart the computer. If I'm not able to detect the problem, I think I'll try to return this product, because I think that it is unacceptable for a machine that costly to freeze the whole system and lost unsaved process in Word or whatever it is.

    Thank you for your help,

  • How to mirror the MacBook Pro w/retina to HDTV via HDMI

    The Mac and the TV are connected, but what I get on the TV is simply on my desktop, it does not appear even the desktop icons that I recorded on my desktop and when I open the program it will not display those.  Any help on what to change to fix this would be appreciated.  Thanks Mike

    what I get on the TV is simply my office

    Then characteristic "Extended desktop" works as expected.

    System Preferences > monitors > reorganize

    ... show you how views are supposed to be placed on your bench. If this is not true, you can drag the icon associated with each view to organize. The mouse moves freely across the border between the displays and can drag a window with it. The implementation of extended desktop is so good that if you drop a window so that the half on each of the two screens, this scrolling window scrolls both portions of "the right way".

    If what you really WANT is mirrored, you need only check the box, however - screen resolutions can change something that both can achieve if you do this, so the results can be less than optimal.

  • Did not use the MacBook Pro 15 "retina mid 2015 in a month

    Hey guys,.

    The title says it all, does not use my top of the line macbook pro retina 15 "with amd r9 370 x in a month and im afraid if this miight have damaged the battery.

    the last time that I used it the battery was 100% until I stopped him.

    Thank you guys. BTW, the cycle of the battery I have is 6

    Apple recommends that the computer has on a charge of 50% and the computer turn off (not asleep) when it is unused for a long period of time. I don't think the fact that you left it with a load of 100% is going to be a big problem. But if you let him sleep in now the computer have exhausted the battery and put the computer into hibernation. You may need to load for a short period until he starts if this is the case.

  • The Macbook Pro 13 "is good for making movies

    Hi all

    I would like to know wheter or not the MacBook Pro 13 "is strong enoughfor film making, I want to use movie making applications and all... I aspire to edit videos short and simple I will upload later on social media. I saw the presentation of the MacBook Pro on the Apple site and I noticed that when talking about the film to do things, they only mention the 15 "... and I had a few doubght.

    To say, I want to buy the MacBook Pro 13 "retina, i7, 16 GB, ssd 550 with a 256 GB of storage.

    Thank you for your help.

    It depends on this kind of filmmaking. Model 15-inch more expensive is the only one with an independent graphics card and will be able to manage better than all other models rendering tasks. If your movie is CGI intensive, you can consider the 15-inch model. If your film is essentially practical, 13 inches could possibly do with simplest post-editing and CGI, but may take longer. If you make a great movie, you can also consider a larger storage capacity as videos tend to take place. View a comparison of the two products on the Apple website here.

  • What is the macbook pro last?

    Hello, I am a student and I bought my first Macbook Pro 3 weeks.

    I love it and was not able to get my hands on it since!

    So today when I came home and was about to check my e-mail, it happened suddenly empty!

    Black! I tried to reboot several times with different combinations, but not of chance that he will not go beyond the login screen.

    I got help from Apple and could activate in Safeboot but always lights in normal mode.

    I'm really upset because I was SO careful with her. He did not leave my room, I have same press as light as possible and put my mousepad touch click so I don't have to support as much...

    As I said though, I used it a lot, a lot of videos, making notes, websites, etc. etc. I don't turn a lot of nights and close the form.

    Y at - it advice or habits that I could make to my macbook it's bad for her?

    And how much time the macbook pro durent usually? I have 13 inch Retina display with mid-range ram and processor, so it was not the cheapest, it was one of the more expensive down 13 inches.

    I'm so afraid now because I'm a student and the death of my macbook on me in the future near or frequently (I only had it for 3 weeks) he's going to make things really difficult. So according to the pleading of your experience, I hope to upgrade to Apple Care or what not. They give you a replacement if it should be fixed?

    I was hoping that it will last at least 5 years, would be a great expectation?

    Thanks in advance for your advice!

    It's just a mistake software, Terminal at all. So we know what you have in running which is the cause and for this we need a report. Download Etrecheck, run the report and post it here, you can do in Mode safe

    There is no general problem going to EL Capitan on your Mac.

    Some applications may require updating.

    Some devices like printer may require the updated drivers. For some readers of devices not being updated are available.
