Are the referbished macbook pro brand new?

They are used but thoroughly checked by Apple to make sure they are in 100% working order before sale.
Lots of them are actually un-used but certain rules say Apple have to sell them as refurbished.
Many of them are returns, meaning they have been used for less than 14 days (to be eligible to return a purchased Apple product, you have to have purchased it less than 14 days ago).

MACbook Pro brand new, froze up on me. I get a login screen then.... Gray?

Can someone please help me. I have a brand new MACbook pro and I tried transferring my PC data. But now my Mac is froze up. I get a login screen then gray........

Hold down the Shift key on Restart, right after the startup tone.
That will boot into Safe Mode, which will run some disk checks and clear out some caches. If it boots, then restart normally and see what happens.

I've never transferred from a PC, so I don't know what Migration Assistant would have done. I can't imagine it would have transferred anything over that would do any damage to the system.

2 monitors on 13" Macbook Pro (brand new)

I'm buying a Macbook Pro next week (April 15, 2014), and I want to use it as a desktop and attach 2 HDMI monitors and Apple USB keyboard (with keypad).
Knowledge base article kb/ht5918 ("Mac Pro (Late 2013): Using multiple displays") is not clear about how to do this. Some options that might work
Option 1:
MiniDisplayPort=>HDMI connector on MiniDisplay Port
USB 3.0=>HDMI connector on USB 3.0 port
Option 2:
MiniDisplayPort to HDMI connector on MiniDisplay Port
MiniDisplayPort to HDMI connector on Thunderbolt Port
Chat sale support said Option 2 would work, but I have not seen it on the web.
Question 1: Will these options work and which is better?
Question 2: Is there a better option not mentioned above? (cost is not critical)
Question 3: Are high speed HDMI cables required?

Thanks, Clinton.
The display resolution of the displays I'm considering (LG 24EA53V-P or LG MP5656HQ-P) are both 1920 X 1080.
Question 1: Would I be better off with DVI-D connections or HDMI?
Question 2: Do you have suggestions for 24" monitors for email, word processing, programming, monitors that that are not discontinued?

Images look lousy on retinal display macbook pro brand new

Just bought a new 15 inch MacBook Pro with retinal display. My images look awful in Photoshop CC and Bridge. Apparently there are no updates that I don't already have. Any suggestions?

“Lousy” and “awful” aren’t very technical terms. Perhaps a screenshot and some actual details of what you don’t like.

Kernel Panic on MacBook Pro, brand new.

HI!
I have done a lot of research on the kernel panic. It happens on Safari, and I have done all I think I can do based on what I have read on these forums. (PRAM, reinstall OS, repair permissions, ditch safari prefs, etc)
Another odd thing is that it only happens when my 24 inch cinema display is plugged in.
Here is the part that seems to be the most important.
This is the part that is consistent in every crash...

--- I HAVE replaced the OS and it happened again.
Safari issue? Plug in issue? Flash issue? Like I said, it's only when I am browsing, and it happens .
Could it be a RAM or hardware issue? Something with the display?
Anyone?
THANKS!!!

I have the exact same problem. New full-loaded 17" MBP, fully updated OSX, and Safari causes a kernel panic about once PER DAY! It's driving me crazy. I've reinstalled Safari, zapped PRAM, updated flash, all to no avail. Here's the kernel panic log:

Are the Apple Macbook pro affected by the heart bleed bug

Is MacBookPro affected by the Heart Bleed bug?

No. No Apple product is affected.
Servers that you may communicate with may be affected though, regardless of the devices you use to connect to them. There isn't anything you can do about that, other than to not use them. That essentially means isolating yourself from the Internet entirely, until such time millions of servers all over the planet are updated to address the vulnerability. No one can guarantee if or when that will ever happen, and by that time some other bug will have been discovered.

The speaker of my brand new mac book pro are not working and I cannot plug in the earphones, the hole looks smaller than the pin or with an obstruction. anybody can help? thanks

Hi talero,
Contact AppleCare or bring it into an Apple Store or AASP.

I have a very old (by computer standards) MacBook Pro, and a newer one. I've been using the old one mostly for iTunes, into which I have only CD entries. For a long time, years, the old MacBook pro ceased entering the song titles. This is very time consuming for me, so I finally investigated a bit further.
I discovered how to enter the track titles onto my newer MacBook Pro, and was so pleased! But when I tried to do the same with the other laptop, it failed.
What I did, basically, was what the Apple Help suggested--choose iTunes General Preferences, etc.etc. And yes, I did upgrade the old laptop to the newest iTunes version.
Am I just wasting my time here? Is there some reason why an older Mac Pro will not do what the newer one will, with regard to iTunes?
My older laptop is a 2.6 GHz Core Duo; it has 36 GB of "memory available." The newer one a 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7. It has 284 GB of memory available.
Both are using the same version of Snow Leopard--10.6.8.

I recently bought the newest macbook pro with only 120 GB of disk space I need to upgrade and was wondering if this would work with my computer 500GB New Sata 2.5" hard drive?

I bought the newest macbook pro 13" with only 120 GB of space. I quickly used all of the space up and need a lot more. I was wondering if this disk is compatible with the model i have.
500GB New Sata 2.5" hard drive

Your best practical option is buying a 1TB external HD for $65
The "low" capacity of the SSD on the Air and entry level Retina are meant to be working platforms for these computers.
Meaning ALL your programs and your working data (stuff you use at least every week).
To try to use either the Air or Retina as a storage platform of any king (lots of pics, music, movies etc.) is both not indicated or practical.
external storage, quality too, is absurdly cheap right now.
You asked:
These are very expensive theres no way that an hdd drive would be compatible with my Mac?
yes, a superslim external HD.
see this: only 7mm thick
http://www.amazon.com/Toshiba-Canvio-Portable-External-Drive/dp/B009F1CXI2/ref=s r_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1377642728&sr=1-1&keywords=toshiba+slim+500gb
Or better still this HUGE HD, which is very small, very reliable and very cheap:
2 Terabytes, 2.5" and only $119

I just replaced the hard drive on my macbook pro, reformatted new hard drive and copied over a backup from time machine now I have a kernel panic message (you must restart) - what do I do now?

i just replaced the hard drive on my macbook pro, reformatted new hard drive, installed a back up from time machine and now have kernel panic ( you must restart your computer) what do I need to do?

If you're able to boot, launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
Select the most recent panic log under System Diagnostic Reports. Post the contents – the text, please, not a screenshot. For privacy’s sake, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header and body of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don't post "shutdownStall" or "hang" reports.
If you can't boot in the usual way, try a safe boot. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
During startup, you’ll see a progress bar, and then the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all.

I have just purchased the latest macbook pro 13 retina (late 2013). I want to connect to a Dell U2713H Monitor. As the new macbook doesn't have a cd slot, I am unable to install the monitor drivers etc. Where can I download the drivers?

Thanks for your prompt reply. I'm not sure how to connect to the monitor as the only ports available on this model mac are Thunderbolt. The mini display to display cable supplied doesn't seem to work out of the TB port. Do I need to use a Thunderbolt cable + an adaptor?

Looking for new laptop what are the differences between pro and air? Besides size. Does the air preform like the pro?

Looking for new laptop what are the differences between pro and air? Besides size. Does the air preform like the pro?

The NEW macbook Pro and Air are EXTREMELY close in form factor
The newest macbook Pro is essentially a larger macbook Air with Retina display and options for speed in increasing prices up to an independent graphics and quad core processor.
both Air and new Pro now have PCIe SSD and permanent RAM.
The Air is the lightweight portable form factor, fast to boot and shut down, but with longer battery life than any of the macbook pro in 13"
Now the new macbook Pro and macbook Air are extremely close in form factor and nature.
both have 802ac wifi
both have permanent RAM, no superdrive
both are slim profiles and SSD
The only real differences now are (in the most expensive Pros) faster processors and quadcore processors and top end model autonomous graphics.
....and of course the retina display
both are now "very good for travel"
Other than features the form factor of the Air and Pro are VERY close now,....so now its merely a matter of features and price more than anything.
You need an external HD regardless of what you get for backups etc. Drop into an Apple store and handle both and make your choice based on features, such as Retina or non-retina, .... both at a distance now look like the same computer.
The Pro weighs more, ....but nowhere near what it used to just a month ago on the older macbook Pros
The NEW macbook Pro is a different creature entirely than the older macbook Pro, .....the new Pro is thicker than the Air, but id frankly call the NEWEST Pro a "macbook Air with Retina display" , or
Maybe a “macbook Air PRO with Retina display”
Instead of Air VS Pro now,.....its really a smooth transition from Air to pro without comparing say, 2 different creatures, now its like contrasting a horse from a race horse.
Either one in 8gig of RAM (preferably)... the 4gig upgrade costs very little, the I7 you will notice only 15% faster on heavy applications over the I5, and NOTHING on most APPS.....I5 has longer battery life.
As you see below, the non-Retina 13" AIR is 82% of the Macbook with Retina display in resolution
there is no magical number of pixels per inch that automatically equates to Retina quality.
http://www.cultofmac.com/168509/why-you-might-be-disappointed-by-the-resolution- of-those-new-retina-display-macs-feature/
A huge internal SSD isnt a game changer for anything, you need an external HD anyway
what you WONT READ on Apple.com etc. is that the larger SSD are MUCH FASTER due to SSD density
"The 512GB Samsung SSD found in our 13-inch model offers roughly a 400MB/s increase in write speeds over the 128GB SanDisk/Marvell SSD"

How can I tell the differences between the new MacBook Pro with retina display and the old MacBook Pro with retina display by looking

I'm just wondering the differences between the new MacBook Pro with retina display which was just released in October 2013 and the old MacBook Pro with retina display.

Thank you for the reply! As you said they looked exactly the same, so I'm not able to tell the differences just by looking, right? I'm thinking to buy a new 13-inch MacBook Pro with retina display, but I'm not buying the MacBook in Apple Store, I'm buying it in other shops, how can know whether they are not selling me the old model of MacBook Pro with retina display?

What is the difference between the new 13" MacBook Pros and the previous version of the 13" MacBook Pro? I purchased an "old" one from Best Buy the day before the announcement of the new models.

See the specs:
Compare Notebooks - Apple Store (U.S.)
Compare with your model. If you are within 14 days of purchase you can exchange for the new model for the difference in price, if any. Be sure to have all the original packaging and your receipt.

Are the referbished macbook pro brand new?
