  I have the 128 GB of Macbook Pro retina early 2015 model. I bought my macbook, the year last January 2015. I am just now having problem with my mac. When I'm trying to boot my laptop it shows the flashing question mark and it does not start after that. For a while it worked, but after the update the laptop is never again.

  After reading all the articles related to this issue and even after trying it the entire process for the departure of mac. I'm not able to start.

  I tried all the normal recovery process in the process of recovery of the internet, but still it does not work for me. When I select the disk utility in the dialog box, the drive does not appear here, so I can't erase and start to reinstall the operating system.

  What should I do now? I was looking for OEM SSD, but it's very expensive. with this prize money of (here in INDIA RS - 50 k) I can get the Macbook Air.

  If please guide me on how to start the mac or what do I do next?

  Thank you.

  We have no way of knowing exactly what you have tried that doesn't work unless you tell us. A flashing question mark boot means that your Mac is unable to locate a startup disk to boot from.

  If you haven't tried... start your Mac holding the key Option. That should launch the boot window manager have been, you can select the startup disk, and then click on restart.

  If this does not help, you will need to take the Mac for the service.

• MacBook Pro retina 2015 randomly freezes when try to watch the video

  Hi all

  I bought a MacBook Pro Retina early 2015 model and is currently under OS X 10.11.4. From day one, it has been an inconsistent issue where my Mac everything would freeze whenever I try to play a video. This moved not always so I thought that this was a small issue that would have been fixed with an update. Soon enough, earlier today, it's the same thing, whole frozen Mac (trackpad is more clicks, keyboard is unresponsive and screen is frozen) when I tried to play a video on FaceBook. I have tried to disable flash, use Chrome or other browsers, did a new install of OS X El Capitan and OS X Yosemite, but it did nothing.

  Any possible suggestions as to what is happening? I was going to take in inspection under the guarantee, but want to make sure before doing so because it is so inconsistent and happens randomly.

  Thank you.

  The problem may be caused by a bug in OS X, triggered by "Flash Player."

  If Flash is installed and that you did not already, please update to the latest version by opening the Flash Player pane in system preferences and selecting the updates tab.

  If Flash is already up to date, or if the update does not resolve the problem, open Safari preferences window and select the Security tab uncheck the box marked

  Enable Plug-ins

  See if there is an improvement.

  You can watch videos on YouTube and other sites without using Flash by installing the extension "ClickToFlash" or "ClickToPlugin' Safari. This isn't an endorsement. You should always do your own research to determine the safety and effectiveness of any third-party software before using it.

• 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

• 13 "Macbook Pro retina heats up on the bridge and google maps satellite

  Hello!

  I have a 13 "Macbook Pro retina

  I noticed that when using google satellite view maps (no matter if in Safari or another browser) my Mac begins to quickly heat up to 102 degrees Celsius (I use https://www.seense.com/menubarstats/ to measure the speed of the CPU temp and fan, but even without any application, you can easily feel the high temp and hear the blowing fan) the fan also starts to blow at maximum speed. When I left the site everything returns to normal.

  Same thing happens when I discover the overpass in Maps.app. When I left the temperature goes down to normal.

  I can compare the situation with my MacBook Air a years more and I have none of these problems in this regard. Strange that both Mac have only the Integrated GPU. No idea what may cause heat upward? Dealing with the satellite or view 3d demanding for rMBP but not for the older MBA buildings? Both on the latest version of the model

  Thank you!

  Hello there, villovsky.

  Looks like you see increases in temperature and fan problems when using particularly intense applications on your MacBook Pro. The following Knowledge Base article offers up to large initial measures for troubleshooting:

  Reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac.

  2. Put your Mac to sleep choosing sleep from the Apple menu. After that he went to sleep, to wake up the computer.
  3. Restart your Mac by selecting restart from the Apple menu.
  4. Stop your Mac by choosing stop from the Apple menu.
  5. If your Mac does not, forcing the Mac to stop by pressing and holding the button for 10 seconds. You will lose any unsaved in all open applications work.

  If you are using a Mac laptop, which is the power or battery issues:

  1. Unplug the adapter from your Mac and the electrical outlet for a few seconds, then plug it back.
  2. Stop your Mac.
  3. Remove and reinsert the battery, if it is removable battery.
  4. Restart your Mac.

  If the problem is still not resolved, you may need to reset the SMC. See indicators and the steps below.

• How can I upgrade (where to buy) the SSD storage for my macbook pro retina 15 "?

  I currently have 256GB on my mac, which is far from enough. as far as I know, the macbook pro get a SSD sata-m and I would buy more. I can buy it on the Apple site?

  Apple does not sell any upgrade to the MacBook Pro retina. If you want to upgrade the internal memory, the connector is not standard m-SATA so your options are limited. One of the few places improvements are available is MacSales.com, who is a seller very good reputation (I bought many improvements to them):

  On this page, you'll see also that they sell a pen, so that you can use the drive out you of your Mac as an external drive.

  My mother just bought a Macbook Air from 2012 and she a 45W Magsafe A1436 with her charger. I would like to know if it is OK to use it with my Macbook Pro retina 2015.

  If you google Magsafe A1436, you will find some results saying it's a Magsafe 2 charger. Does this mean that I can use?

  Yes it will work. But be aware that it will slow down the macbook a little, the power is not the same. And battery charge rate will be slower as well.

• MacBook pro retina 2015 heating

  Hello

  I recently bought a macbook pro retina 2015 a few months back. I noticed it's really hot when I do normal navigation and just check my mail. The idle temperature resembles 42 degrees celsius, even though the temperature is 30 degrees. I tried a SMC reset yesterday, but it's still pretty hot, its really annoying. Someone else knows this or get some faulty hardware?

  I can my thermal data using the trial version of TG Pro... I am running El capitan.

  Here is what the data looks like when I use youtube and experience to download google chrome.

  

  If you use the video, which can be a lot of resources, the temperatures are not offline.  The temperature are certainly far from "fatal".

  Ciao.
