• help my macbook pro retina 13inch started itself and turned off while in the case

  as the title, my Macbook pro retina (bought in 2014) is transformed and then turn off 5 minutes later while in his case today, I only noticed after reviewing the event log and seeing a start and stop.  How can this happen? the Mac was definitely off not asleep and I did not put a timer.

  It is unusual for a Mac to act this way, but this is not the first time that I heard about what's going on.

  It looks like a problem SMC and is easily fixed by a reset see here reset management system (SCM) controller on your Mac - Apple Support this will most likely solve the problem.

  If this isn't the case, then it could be a simple sticky switch?

  A visit to a Genius Bar is perhaps a good idea if the SMC reset does not work for you, and a new OSX installation did not help.

• 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!

• MacBook air water damage recovery of data flash storage of air from macbook to macbook pro retina

  Last week, I spilled water on my macbook air that extinguishes immediately after that.
  It's been a week that I let it dry without attempting to start.

  Unfortunetaly, I did have a backup for 2 weeks, (of course bad luck should come at the wrong time), and I really need to get my data from the flash ssd drive.

  I thought to transfer the player of Flash ssd of the macbook air to a macbook pro retina and retrieve the data since the macbook pro retina by making a backup. Would this work? This would not damage the macbook pro retina?

  I have a macbook air early 2014, the macbook pro retina is also the same year.

  Thank you very much for your answers.

  Best regards.

  You'd better using an external enclosure of the MacBook Air SSD rather than MacBook Pro.

  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.

• 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

• MacBook Pro retina slider made trails on screen

  I have a brand new 15 "Macbook Pro retina and intermittently when he wants the cursor will trail across the screen. If you get on the slopes with the cursor, it erases the. Very strange. I tried to take screenshots of this phenomenon, but they do not appear in the screenshots and they also disappear after taking the screenshot. It is difficult to recreate, but it seems sometimes when I start Lightroom CC or change the resolution to "scale", it happens. I could talk to one of the 'genius' and he said it was a known software problem, but I can't find hide or hair of it anywhere on the internet. I'd hate to have to consider and be without it, if it's something as simple as a software problem that I'm able to find me the solution. I have erased HD and did a 'clean' of El Capitan install already, since I don't have much on this machine to restore. No help, it still occurs at random. Thank you advance.

• my macbook pro retina display will not download large files

  I had this problem happen to me twice before involving 1gig zipped files or files unzipped pretending to be finished in the download bar. It shows for example 309,5 309,5, the loading bar does not disappear. I try to click on it and it tells me "this son is still downloading. So I get in my downloads folder, click on the contents of opened, I look for the file and click on it like that, it gives me the possibility of reactivation of the zip folder, I do this, then it gives me an error message saying "files are not completed. (I give him hours and hours to 'finish loading' and then try again)

  Then... This has been recently. The first file I wanted to download was the Creative Design Premium Adobe (I waited half a day until the next day for this download click again on it) that is given to me directly in the downloads section of the adobe.com site. I need to reinstall the software due to an unknown error (YOSEMITE LIKELY) anyway... I start downloading, it ends - but not really. Something is happening. So I try it on Chrome, same problem. So I try it on a PC - made. No worries.

  So far I have not seen this question arise with someone else.

• MacBook Pro does not stop.

  My MacBook Pro will be stop or restart.

  Hello, Steve840!

  Thank you for joining the communities Support from Apple! Looks like you have a problem closing the Mac. I know how it is important to be able to stop and restart the computer as well. Here are a few troubleshooting steps that you can try. Go through each of them at a time and see what step fixes the problem:

  • Try to determine if a particular application is the source of the problem. If an application always crashes when you stop and cancels the process then update or remove and reinstall the application. There could be a message that is displayed by saying that an app has cancelled the restart or shutdown. Read this article toForce an app to close on your Mac.
  • Perform a software update (open the App Store, then click on updates > update all).
  • Update any software that you have installed outside of the App Store. In general, open the app and choose Help > update > update software.
  • Make sure you have FileVault disabled (System Preferences > Privacy & Security > FileVault > turn off FileVault).
  • Open disk utility. Choose the main hard drive and click on check the disc. If there is no problem, click Repair disk.
  • Follow these steps to reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac. This removes the startup items and conduct audits to see if something in the background can cause the problem. Don't forget that you can always press and hold the power button on the MacBook, until it stops to completely power off to restart.
  • Follow these steps on How to reset the NVRAM on your Mac.
