Hi, I have a latest Macbook Pro Retina. I connect its hdmi port to a DisportPort of HP Compaq LA2205wg external monitor, but no signal at all. Could anybody help me

I could be *very* wrong but did not know you could output from HDMI into displayport consistently with no issues.
Try a mDP to DP cable like this (the mDP end will go directly into the thunderbolt port of your laptop)

I have the latest Macbook Pro retina and I am having trouble getting it to mirror from my Apple TV to the actual TV

I have the latest Macbook Pro retina and I have looked on line for ways to hook it up to Apple TV, but all ways have failed to do so. However, I can easily access Apple TV through my Iphone 4s.
~ When I turn on Apple TV and Airplay and connect only the Macbook Screen goes into the mirror tv format. Nothing shows up at all on the TV.

Awesome, thanks everyone for your brilliant ideas in regards to trouble shooting this issue.

2 monitors on MacBook Pro (Retina) using Thunderbolt and HDMI ports?

I would like to buy a MacBook Pro with a Retina display. I want to attach 2 external monitors and Ethernet. I need to use one Thunderbolt port to attach to my (wired) ethernet.
Can I attach 2 monitors to a MacBook Pro (Retina) using
1) a mini display port to DVI adapter
2) a HDMI to DVI adapter?

Yes, it is possible to run 3 monitors at once on the Retina MacBook Pro (2 connected over Thunderbolt and one over HDMI).
Displays used in picture below:
Retina on laptop @ “best for Retina”
iMac used as a display @ 2560 x 1440 via Thunderbolt
iMac used as a display @ 2560 x 1440 via Thunderbolt/DisplayPort
LG monitor @ 1920 x 1200 via HDMI
Hope this answers your question.

I have bought a Macbook Pro Retina, and the iPhoto which comes with it, has a different iPhoto Book menu. I cannot see how to put text at the bottom of the pages of photographs, instead of the default place in the middle. Is there a way to do this?

There are different templates for iPhoto books and they differ from version of iPhoto to iPhoto, so explore the other options.

I cannot get my Macbook Pro retina to connect to my BT Home hub.

Hi,
I cannot get my Macbook Pro Retina to connect to my BT homehub either wirelessly or through ethernet using the thunderbolt adaptor. I know that this is a problem with my IP address as in Network Settings it tells me that
'Thunderbolt Ethernet has a self-assigned IP address and will not be able to connect to the Internet.'
I know that my internet connection is fine as I can plug the ethernet cable back into my PC and it works fine. Also, my phone and ipad connect wirelessly just fine.
Bt have told me to contact Apple, but I can't get hold of Apple till tomorrow.
Amyone know how to overcome this?
I did also find my IP address and enter it manually, at which point netwrok settings showed my ethernet connection as green and connected, but it still wasn't working.
Thanks

Same for wifi. I have put in my IP address manually for the wifi network and it has gone green and connects to the hub, but gives me an exclamation mark on the wifi bar and still doesnt connect to the internet.
I am writing this whilst connected to the internet on the same laptop but connected to BTFON which is a really slow public network I have access to as a BT customer.

Macbook pro retina 13 late 2013, usb ports are intermittent with iPhone

Macbook pro retina 13 late 2013, usb ports are intermittent with iPhone
when i connect my iPhone 5 to the laptop it keeps connecting and disconnecting, I've had this problem since owning the macbook. change of cables makes no difference neither does which port i use.
is there any advice anyone could give me?
many thanks.

Hello there Jake,
It sounds like your phone is acting like you are connecting and disconnecing it over and over again even with another USB cable. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article to help you determine what the issue might be.
iTunes: Resolve USB-related alerts
See if the cable connection at the device or computer has come loose or unplugged.
Unplug the cable you're using to connect your iOS device from the USB port on your computer, and then reconnect it. Then unplug it from your iOS device, and reconnect it.
Remove any third-party battery packs or cases from the device and ensure that the USB cable is connected directly to the port on the device.
If your Lightning or 30-pin cable is connected to a keyboard, display or USB hub, try plugging it directly into a USB port on the computer instead.
Close any virtualization apps (such as Parallels or VMWare).
These apps may interfere with your computer's ability to communicate over USB if they aren't properly configured, or up to date. If this resolves the issue, contact the developer of the app to see if an update is available.
Restart your computer.
Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
If your iOS device displays the Connect to iTunes screen, reset your device and then restore it.
If you're using an accessory or third-party cable to connect your device, try using an Apple cable with the device instead.
Update to the latest version of iTunes if you haven't already.
Disconnect other USB devices from your computer, except for your keyboard and mouse. Then, reconnect your iOS device. If the issue is resolved, reconnect the other USB devices one at a time. Make sure your iOS device is still recognized by the computer after adding back each device.
If one of these steps resolves the issue, but it comes back later, make sure you haven't changed how the device is connected. For example, check to see if you plugged the device into a specific accessory, or used a specific cable that reintroduced the issue.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

TS3850 What if ingesting from DV tape to FC X using the Macbook Pro Retina which lacks a firewire port

What if ingesting from DV tape to FC X using the Macbook Pro Retina which lacks a firewire port

I have used it quite a bit for connecting to external drives, etc. with no problems. Have not done a tape ingest as we don't have tape based cameras to work with any more. It appears to emulate a FW800 port perfectly.

How to connect MacBook Pro 17" Mountain Lion with HDMI port on TV, Panasonic TC-P55ST50

Any experience with cables for connecting MacBook Pro 17" Mountain Lion with HDMI port on TV, Panasonic TC-P55ST50 (or similar)?

It depend upon the model (age) of you MBP. If you have a Thunderbolt or minidisplay port, then you will need a minidisplay/HDMI adapter.
eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/CBLMDPHDMI/
Or you can get an all in one:

If you have an older mac with a DVI port, you will need something like this:

Note that audio is supported via HDMI for MBPs 2010 and later. Earlier ones require tapping the audio output port.

Can I use Final Cut Studio 2 on the latest macbook pro retina display?

I'm planning on buying the 15" macbook pro retina display and was given Final cut studio 2 from a friend as he woudn`t use it.
is it possible to install this program on the computer at all and successfully use it or can i upgrade to the newest version?

Studio 2? FCP 6? No. Sorry, won't even install. It's 8 year old software...and Apple no longer supports it.
The latest version, FCP-X...costs $299. There is no upgrade cost. But once you buy it, every single update after that is free...given the history of past updates. Note...it's very different from FCP 6. Completely different app.

Macbook Pro Retina not working with HDMI

I have a Mac Book Pro Retina that will not work using the HDMI port. I have tried with two Monitors and difference cable and the issue happens on both. I connected one via a Display Port to VGA and it works fine.
I'd like to use the HDMI port. I am running Mountain Lion 10.8.4 (Latest Version).
I have tried deleting the pref panes as outlined in ofther links. Aslo reset pram without sucess.
Is anyone using a Macbook Pro Retina with builtin HDMI port sucessfully with 10.8.4?
If you are using HDMI with Display port let me know if I should get an adpater to test.

Hi walkerheather,
It sounds like you've already done most of the pertinent steps here:
Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1573
I would recommend going through once and trying anything you may have missed in the section "No video or no signal, image distortion, 'snow,' or flickering" and then follow these steps from the very bottom:
If you tried all of these steps for your display and the video issues persist, contact Apple technical support or take your Apple computer to the nearest Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) for diagnosis. If you plan to visit an Apple Retail Store, make a reservation at the Genius Bar using http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/ (available in some countries only).
Note: Diagnostic fees may apply for issues not covered under warranty or the AppleCare Protection Plan (APP).
Take care,
