MacBook Pro 2014 - failure of the graphics card for the 2nd time in 2 years - no guarantee

Hi all

end of 2014, I bought a new 13 inch Retina Display MacBook Pro mid 2014 model (A1502, EMC2875). A few months later, the graphics card has failed - no obvious reason. Apple replaced. Now, the graphics card has not yet. Still, the mac worked perfectly well (no overheating of the noise, nothing) and all of a sudden - no understandable reason or external actions, the graphics card has failed. Unfortunately, I do not have a guarantee of more. At least, I can access my documents by connecting two Macs, so I hope that the material is not affected.

My model (1502) apparently only has a single integrated graphics processor.

My questions:

  • After some research, I discovered that Apple used to have these problems with the 2011 edition. They have implemented a replacement program. Does anyone know sth on this subject?
  • What graphics card would you recommend? How much such a graphics card? Where could I buy a cheap?

Of course, I don't want to reuse the same type - guess I don't have to explain how @* #&! I'm after two times the same problem within two years after the purchase of a brand new MacBook Pro...

I would appreciate any recommendations and links!

Best regards

Rahel

-As you say, your Mac model uses the graphics processor integrated in the CPU chip. So, there are ios no replacement possible. The CPU is soldered to the logic board

-The problem with the 2011 MacBook Pro was with the discreet Nvidia, not the graphics unit integrated in the CPU graphics unit.

-When you went to an Apple store just says the genius of APple?

This is the Office Mac Pro forum. I asked that your post be moved to the MacBook Pro laptop.

  • After the upgrade of the House 7 to 7 Pro the Toshiba support site shows the bad graphics card for L775D.

    Original title: Graphics Adapter Gone.

    After the upgrade of the House 7 to 7 Pro the Toshiba support site shows the bad graphics card for my L775D. I have an AMD Radeon 6250 built in card and when you search AMD support site, it does not show my video card. I did a search automatically and empty came also.

    I also had a problem with a file. TVALZ_O Sys when I search because she is on board I came with 3 files which no I can do something with. The system will accept all available Windows updates and continues do not install 3 updates of security. This a Quad Core A6 Vision 1.4 GB processor any help would be greatly appreciated as I formatted and reinstalled until I'm blue in the face.

    Hello Stephen,

    The file that TVALZ_O seems to be linked to Toshiba ACPI and it seems THAT BIOS should be updated.

    Since you are facing many problems after the upgrade to Windows 7 Professional, it seems you may need to check the latest updates of the Toshiba BIOS.

    Important: Change the BIOS (Basic input output system) / Semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    You have to get in contact with the support Toshiba BIOS update and to get help.

    Hope the helps of information. Let us know if you need help with Windows related issues. We will be happy to help you.

  • You just bought a macbook pro retina. Why the resolution of the camera is terrible?

    You just bought a macbook pro retina. Why the resolution of the camera is terrible? Is there a solution?

    The facetime camera is only 720 p, which is 0.92 megapixel. Same 1080 p is only 2.07mp.

    It's really designed only for video calls, if you really want to make HiRes video on the internet.

  • Restored HD from a Time Machine backup of my old iMac (stolen) from my new MacBook Pro.  Not all the files have been restored.

    My iMac 27 "(2011) so my wife 13 '' MacBook Pro (2011) were recently stolen after our House was robbed.  My wife got a new MacBook Pro and I restored it successfully its data (selected "backup restore Time Machine" during the installation of its new MacBook Pro).  However, I also got a new 15 "MacBook Pro in lieu of the iMac 27".  I have, once again, selected "Restore from Time Machine backup" (selected the iMac as the backup source) when installing my new MacBook Pro.  When it was finally over, I told Time Machine to inherit from the backup.  Unfortunately, none of the files in the My Documents folder or the photos in my photo library have been restored.  Was it a bad idea to try to use the backup of the iMac as a source for the MacBook Pro (both running El Capitan)?

    is it possible that your documents are stored on another drive which was not part of the backup plan? or is the HD in the big enough MBP to inherent the old backup.

    If you open the time machine with the original backup disc, you should be able to browse the content

    If the files are found, you can restore by right-clicking (or CTRL + left mouse)

  • My Macbook Pro does not recognize the Apple USB superdrive

    My Macbook pro doesn't recognize the superdrive.

    I don't know exactly what is the cause, but everything was fine before certain events.

    Upgrade to El Capitan

    Upgrading to Parallels desktop 11

    Upgrade to Windows 10

    As I said before these changes everything was fine. Another problem I face is a lot of cuts of my wifi connection and I have to disconnect and reconnect the wifi.

    If anyone has any idea I would be grateful to have the explanation

    Thank you very much

    The Superdrive Apple USB attracts more than the maximum power allowed. It can be awkward on some MacBook Pro. But the question probably for your configuration is Windows has reserved the player himself, and the side Mac cannot use until Windows releases, or you do a restart.

    I have a MacBook Pro (mid-2012) with the audio jack single. Why not recognize it when I plug a microphone inside?

    I use a splitter cable, and have verified meter that it is properly connected.  Also the microphone that I try to use the works when connected to a separate Recorder device, so I know who works very well.

    The audio output on a 2012 port does not support the audio input.  You will need to use the USB ports for audio input.  This will require an appropriate hardware and software.

    Ciao.
