Logic board failure Mac Pro 3 months old

I have a 3 months old Mac Book Pro 15 inch 516 g upper computer in line with Apple Care that is supposed to last me years and years to come.  In the night when you're done, I usually store it with 5% battery left.  Come out a few days later, and instead to get the Apple Logo 'Need to plug into the screen', I get this:

Then I connect my Mac and everything goes back to normal.  When I saw this, I tried POOP my pants and threw up my dinner upward.

So obviously, I went back to simply Mac where I bought, showed them the video and they said probably will not Board their diagnoses are down to return until next week so forth and so.

I am extremely worried to have my new Mac being opened upwards and have parts replaced on an old computer on 96 day.  I called the Apple Support, they are not a substitute for a brand new computer.  I called a store that is two hours, they refused a request for replacement.

If at this point, I guess I'm looking at 3 options and I need the best advice.

1. consider at my local Mac simply who I am very suspicious about.  I was in the back of their store, and it is not the cleanest.  In addition, they do not have great turn around time.  Someone has simply Mac works on a MacBook Pro before?

2 ride 2 hours, at the Apple store, make them fix I hope same day otherwise they reship (hopefully) or have pity on me and give me a new mac (what are the odds?)

3. send it by mail?  Proving that he has problems in this way would be difficult because it takes leave the battery to 1% until it had its issues.  I have pictures and video even though evidence.  Also very wary about this option, we have expelled all new iPhone my husband 6plus and Fedex broke the entire screen and Apple refused to fix what was wrong with the microphone and then cover the repair of the screen.  After 3 hours of quite striking, they he replaced however.

I called the Apple Support, they are not a substitute for a brand new computer.  I called a store that is two hours, they refused a request for replacement.

It is the policy - you have only 14 days for return or Exchange, otherwise warranty repairs.

Take in a test of "Apple Service Diagnostics" and ask specifically for the VST (video systems Test)

  • MacBook Pro 13,3 "retina Logic Board failure?

    I bought my MacBook Pro 13,3 "Retina display nine in early 2014 before going to College.  This is the most expensive item that I have ever owned I always made sure to take the greatest care in the use and handling.  About a week ago, I went to turn it on and a prohibitive symbol appeared on the screen (a white circle with a slash) and after that, it was completely cut off.  I took it to a (MicroCenter) renamed repair store and they said it was a failure of the logic board and would cost nearly $700 to fix.  Everyone knows this Council logical fault problem?

    I am extremely disappointed by Apple because I thought of them as the cream of the cream with advanced technology "State-of-the-art".  I expect this device to last until the end of my academic career to a minimum and the fact that it's broken in less than two years is absolutely unacceptable. I did some googling and I saw a trial about the logic board failures in 15 '' MacBook Apple of 2011-13 and had published a complementary repair program.  I hope they do the same with my case.

    Again, someone else has their logic board fail randomly?

    Thanks in advance.

    Welcome to Apple Support communities

    Sorry to hear that. I suggest you take a look at the forums of MacBook Pro to find cases similar to yours and check if there is a systemic problem or if you just had bad luck. Obviously it will not be a legal action if this problem is reduced to a few users, but there's a chance if this is stated as a failure of the design.

    About your problem, it looks more like a problem of flash storage rather than a failure of the logic board, but retina MacBooks Pro have most of their parts soldered to the logic board, so, any repair is quite expensive. Finally, if you live in a European country, remember that your Mac has got a 2-year statutory warranty, then you may qualify for a free repair.

  • Replaced logic board

    December 2015 new display iMac with the retina 5 k, 4 GHz Intel Core i7, 16 GB 1867 MHz DDR3. The problem started when I opened a photo in preview or Photoshop. The screen was decided in 2 different colors and have to restart. I couldn't open a pic in the preview and work in Photoshop.

    During this time, my camera was working fine and I used video Skype without problem. Then in January, I sent the new iMac to an Apple dealer to solve this problem, and they changed the logic board. It took 4 months to be repaired, he I just for 2 weeks now, preview works fine and photoshop as well BUT I realize that the camera to the iMac does not and the microphone internal as well.

    I have 2 questions.

    1 - How the camera and the internal microphone can be fix

    2. when they replaced the logic board, I lost my serial number not available.

    Really need help.

    Where are you from?

    You do not have a real Apple Store to take your iMac to any type of repairs?

    You take your iMac to a new Center Apple authorised dealers/repairers and it took them almost 5 months to repair/replace a logic board in your new iMac?

    If a new iMac, your statements read as if they were NOT in the very competent repair center for me.

    I would have set up an adjustment NOT seen my iMac nine 5 months and fry it with, however, other problems.

    Why, no real Apple don't Store to take your iMac to.

    Is this repair center labeled as an authorized Apple dealer/service center or is it some computer shop electronics/generic, simply stating that they can fix Macs. Doesn't seem to be a very competent repair center, at all! IMO.

    I think you need to, once more, it bring for repair as the repair center has not done something right (AFTER 5 MONTHS!).

    If you have any actual Apple store, you can drive to, I bring in for repair and explain what has happened with this new iMac, so far.

    Better yet, you can call Apple directly at 1-800-MYAPPLE and speak with the service the customer of what happened with your new iMac purchase and see what they can do for you.

    Your iMac should NOT have this kind of questions after a month and still problems after waiting 5 MONTHS for the logic of BIG boxes replaecment after just a MONTH of USE?

    Contact Apple directly, first.

    This iMac should NOT have all these difficulties.

    See if they would replace your iMac and the plug by another new unit model.

    If this does not happen, and they offer to continue to fix, then make sure that very soon that you pay and save extended AppleCare that gives your new iMac two additional years of warranty repair.

    Good luck!

  • Can I use my 5K iMac as a monitor for the Mac Pro?

    I'm so curious because I really need speed for Final Cut, but for the Mac Pro, you must separately buy things (monitors, keyboards, mouse). For the iMac, it is included, but he really loves * that the Mac Pro has this old crush which is very pixelated to 82ppi, compared to the iMac not expensive 21.5 "without Retina display, it is equal to 102ppi. My iMac 27 "is 5K also, and the iMac is 218ppi. I want a high resolution to get the best view possible, but I can't in the Mac Pro. I would like also to the screen have a built-in webcam and speakers similarly.

    Only through the screen which two computers sharing work normally.

  • Mac Pro, Flash Storage, Dropbox, and external storage Solutions

    I am considering a Mac Pro to a computer in the enterprise. I hope someone can give an overview and experience with the dilemma of using a computer with a small amount of storage on board, dropbox and external storage devices.

    Background:

    Mac Pro storage on board - The Mac Pro has limited onboard storage. It comes with a 256 k flash memory and is apparently expandable to 512 or 1 TB. But, I can not even know where to buy the storage upgrade. For some reason, it seems even to be available for purchase on Apple's site. I can't understand how much it costs or where to buy it. I found a link showing how to install it, but that's all.

    Dropbox - Dropbox is an important part of the company, or at least my business. The tricky thing is that Dropbox doesn't seem to work very well if this does not work on an operating system main hard drive. I tried once on a Mac Mini Server, and it does not work well. I read on the Dropbox site that it doesn't work so well. The small amount of storage on board available for the Mac Pro means that it is necessary to use an external drive, which is fine with me, with the exception of the question of Dropbox. Is anyone here from an experience with this problem.

    External storage - the question here is as stated above. How to get an external drive on a Mac Pro, the operating system is not installed on, to work properly. I know that most people could read this and suggest to go to the website of Dropbox support for more information. I was able to do that and have nothing. Looking for Mac people who could potentially experience.

    In short, how the hell you upgrade Mac Pro flash storage... where do you get, and how much it costs?  And second, anyone experience using Dropbox on a Mac Pro, where the Dropbox folder is not located on the operating system drive.

    Thanks for any help that can be provided.

    -Apple does not sell to replace internal storage.

    -You can often find storage on eBay and other places. However, isn't that all in storage for some MacBook Pro model will work in the Mac Pro is much slower. One way to tell is that the MacBook you do not have a heatsink on them while the Mac Pro.

    -You can buy external storage Thunderbolt. To access only a disc both an external case USB 3/disc is about as fast as Thunderbolt. Can get pregnant using the portable 2 1/2 standard SSD

    -I did not all the posts here for the use of DB on an external drive.

  • Should I replace logic board or cable hard drive? MacBook Pro 13 mid 2012

    Hello guys I suffer for the last two weeks of my Macbook Pro would be grateful if you help me.

    Summary:

    A few months ago my mac has been slow and when I restart or stop it would take a minute or two, what has not happened in 2012-2014. In 2015, I decided to upgrade my SSHD HDD - Seagate 1 TB (that I'd need more space and a better performance). After that the upgrade of SSHD everything went well, my mac has been rapid, the battery has now 8 hours of battery life (440 + cycles). Overall it was a great experience! However during the night my frozen Mac even the mouse cursor, so I closed my Mac and it set in motion this time he showed me an icon of the slash. I disassembled my Mac and handed the stock HARD drive. This time, he showed the white screen without the disks. I tried several boards of various sites and one from the tip which has been WORKED safe mode! When I restarted, he returned to square one... I used the same trick but it didn't work. Now I see that a white screen on both discs, sometimes the issue icon flashes. Just for you find the hard disk turns but does not recognize... Although she acknowledged on my other Mac.

    I just remembered something just before this incident happened, I was cleaning up my Macbook with a small wet towel size (including the liquid soup inside) and then I cleaned the screen, the trackpad and keyboard (some liquid went inside the thing black screen and some of them inside the edges of the trackpad) but I them rinsed quickly. After 2 days, the slash screen appeared, and that's how it started.

    I removed the battery to see if there is any corrosion or something unusual about this, I also checked the trackpad, and it wasn't any dry liquid or dust, etc.

    Get to the point:

    Currently, I use my Mac through an external SSHD and everything works fine, but I want to stop using this method and thus solve the problem.

    Issues related to the:

    What exactly is the problem? Is my logic damaged Board and keep my HARD drive to recognize?

    Do you think that my card is fine, but I just need to replace the cable from the hard drive (821-1480) to a new?

    What happens if the hard disk thing stuck on the logic board or is damaged?

    Please help me and I'm sure that others are also facing a similar question. Another note, why some users claiming that their disk cable hard is to failure after replacing several times?


    We do not know "What exactly is the problem?". Get out your computer to an authorized for assessment service center. I suspect that you have caused water damage when the water and soup entered into your computer. Be prepared for a fix expensive since the water, not the soup ir and electronic works well together.

  • Is it worth to replace a macbook pro with an old mac pro?

    I have a 13 "macbook pro mid 2012, core i5 2.5 ghz and 4 GB of RAM

    I plan to replace an old mac pro with intel xeon 3 GHz dual core or quad (maybe from 2009 or 2010) and slowly upgrade by adding more RAM, sound card, and video, etc. (I won't change the logic board)

    Computer will be used for the games, but especially for a music with logic studio Pro X (requires OS X El Capitan)

    It's worth?

    OK, now you have 2013MBP 13 inches, and you said topic you will use the computer to do some professional work as a music studio (btw, I somehow like music studio, but I could can't work on that to this life) and games.

    and now your account to replace it with a Mac Pro, which is a desktop computer, I have to say that they are in any other product, and you are already thinking on this subject, which means that you don't have to wear it around right? So, personally, I recommend the CHANGE! There?

    as you say you only have two choices, keep the macbook pro 13 "or replace with the older generation of the Mac Pro, I would say 13-inch MacBook Pro can almost do anything even the latest generation! since low-votage and integrated dual-core process just crappy graph, I don't really think its meet your needs (Audio Studio, game)

    So for you its might be interesting to replace it, but you may need to do the following to make the old gen Mac Pro more "usable".

    -Add the Ram, I remember its only accepts DDR2 ram (I think, not really sure, I have never had one of that), but get at least 16 GB of this and will be allowed to use the same sound only DDR2, you need measure the cost dedicated to Rams

    -Add the USB3.0 card. I didn't say more on this right? USB2 is somehow too crappy for now, if you need measure the cost of the USB3.0 card.

    -Probably to replace the hard drive, its massively improve loading speed if you have a fusion drive or an SSD, its depends on your own needs, if you want to do, then you need measure the cost of training you want to buy.

    -Replace the graphics card, its origin have something called AMD X 3100 or wat, really, remember its all just too old even glance at her age. and return at the time its totally new, it is not the series of cards that have the intention of game. According to the info you provided, you have need a map rendering and 3D design professional, but a card game, then you may need to replace it with more recently built AMD or Nvidia graphics card in game, try watching the series Geforce and Rasomething. and theres something that should be mentioned is the old Mac Pro motherboard, is somewhat different with PC on hardware support, so that the graphics card must take in charge the Mac EFI boot or something else. I do not see the HD7970 and the GTX7? 0 mac edition, which works perfectly after replacement, but also of boys randomly announcement that they got the PC normal edition of some cards and put it on the Mac Pro, its can't stand not EFI of Mac Pro type so that they can not see a shit only on the screen while the Startup logo should show, but once finished go , its works perfectly. That's what I've heard, I'm bloody tired and sleepy now (PLUS8 GMT) hope so I made an explanation clear outta giant paragraph. But anyway, because they have tested PC edition graphics card also works on Mac, theres a huge amount of graphics card, you can buy and before you buy, if your not sure if this does not work on Mac, just borrow one of it and test it just outside, or directly, so search for Mac guaranteed Mac-compatitable by manufacturing , you need measure the cost of this.

    -Possibly a map HiFi sound taking in charge waves and digital output since your doing audio studio, the price increases a breakfast unique price you can buy a car outta that, then choose the one you want and measure the cost.

    -the processor might be still allowed to use and the current level of normal performance, so you can just keep it, but if you want to update, of course, a position which cost.

    -The time you go to research / purchase parts/physically change/test this baby. as goes XD.

    That's essentially all you need to do if you decide to replace your MacBook Pro 13 "with the Mac Pro, the major concern is the cost of parts, other that neither that complex, just to the top, find open port, insertion/replacement material, FACT, USB3 card possible to require a driver, but all you have to do is click NEXT.

    OK, good luck pal and if you blow up your House all by improving the Mac Pro, don't tell anyone I gave you these suggestions ok? XDXD

  • MacBook pro late 2011 glitches after logic board replacement

    Hi all!

    I end 2011 macbook pro in April 2015, I got free logic board replacement because of glitches of gpu (http://www.apple.com/support/macbookpro-videoissues/) but now I'm having the same problem again. my macbook showing pink lines on startup apple logo and does not start.

    Can I replace my logic board again (it will be 2nd time) this program?

    Depending on which country you are (United States I guess) you should actually be covered under various consumer protection regulations and must now insist on a replacement machine. This defect is a manufacturing defect and that you already had a repair that did not set you have the legal right to a replacement. That said I should advise that Apple do not tend to stick to their legal obligations in this case (I know I have a macbook 13-inch pro who had questions on the first day and despite extensive repairs Apple still refuse to replace - although clearly indicated their own conditions of sale & the law here) He should have).  On another front repairs performed on any product should work properly for a "reasonable" period Again the definition depends on what country you are but in Europe, which is usually recognized only 6 years old at best. Good luck!
