I just bought a new apple MacBook Pro with retina and it has froze on me twice today. Anybody know why this is happening?

I just bought myself a brand new apple MacBook Pro yesterday. Today while using it it has froze on me twice for no apparent reason. Does anyone know why this is happening?

Or have it replaced. Unless you've added a bunch of strange stuff, this shouldn't happen to a brand new one. Let your local Apple Store get you going with a MBP that works perfectly.

I bought a new 13 macbook pro with 4gb and would like to get aperture 3.4.3. Will it require too much ram for my computer? Thanks

I just bought a macbook pro 13" with 4gb and would like to get aperture on it. Will aperture require too much ram for my computer? Thanks for any support.

I just bought a macbook pro 13" with 4gb
I have been using Aperture on such a system, and it was o.k. with Snowleopard and moderately sized images. After I upgraded to Lion and started to user larger image files - 30 MB tiffs, I saw the occasional beachball spinning. You should be prepared to quit other applications that will hog the RAM (like Safari), when working with Aperture on Lion or Mt. Lion with only 4 GB. If you can, follow Frank Caggiano's recommendation and upgrade to 8GB. It will make a large difference.

Resetting User Password in Lion, Mountain Lion & Mavericks
Boot into your Recovery Partition by hold down the Command and R keys whilst booting.
When the Recovery screen appears, go to the Utilities menu and open Terminal.
In Terminal, type:
resetpassword
...a small app will open and allow you to choose the user for whom you want to change the password. If you are the admin, be certain that you choose your admin user. Type in your new password twice and give yourself a good hint. Click OK (or Done or whatever) and reboot, enjoying the use of your new, hopefully memorable, password.
Good luck,
Clinton

Hi I have just bought a new Mac Book Pro 15" Retina display with 256 SSD and 8G RAM. I had my info transferred form my Previous Mac Book Pro late 2011 to this machine. When trying to download Mavericks it says it cannot be loaded onto this machine? Strange as I have just downloaded Pages, Numbers and Keynote...free? Thanks and Regards

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You already have got OS X Mavericks installed (the Keynote, Pages and Numbers versions available in the Mac App Store are only compatible with OS X Mavericks).
You have got a Late 2013 MacBook Pro, which uses a special OS X Mavericks version that is not available in the Mac App Store. This is the reason why the Mac App Store is not compatible with OS X Mavericks even if you are using it. This will be fixed in OS X 10.9.1, when your Mac uses the same Mavericks version as all other Macs.
Until then, you can reinstall OS X through OS X Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718

It's available in the App Store as a digital download. You do not need a disc to install software.

I have the new macbook pro with retina and I am trying to back up with wd passport for mac and is telling me it is going to take 7days

I have the new macbook pro with retina and I am trying to back it up, with wd passport for mac and is telling me it is going to take 7days. Any Ideas? Im afraid that means there is something wrong with my hard drive. I have verified the disk and it says everthing is ok.

It seems to be a common problem that those drives don't perform well, at least not with Time Machine.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
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, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Enter the word "Starting" (without the quotes) in the String Matching text field. You should now see log messages with the words "Starting * backup," where * represents any of the words "automatic," "manual," or "standard." Note the timestamp of the last such message. Clear the text field and scroll back in the log to that time. Post the messages timestamped from then until the end of the backup, or the end of the log if that's not clear.
Post the log text, please, not a screenshot. If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don't post many repetitions of the same message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into a message.
Some personal information, such as the names of your files, may be included — edit that out, too, but don’t remove the context.

Why do I lose my text layer in AE when gpu ray trace rendereing? Macbook pro with retina and latest

why do I lose my text layer in AE when gpu ray trace rendereing? Macbook Pro with Retina and latest AE update.
Any new text layers disapear also as soon as the 3d box is checked. Solid layers do likewise. The text is available in fast draft mode but is not present in a final render.
Adussting the number of "rays" makes no difference.
No one else seems to be having this problem with ther macbook pro with retina ( on internet).
What silly mistake am I making???????????
If I start the project in CPU ray trace all is fine. If after the problem develops in GPU I change back to CPU I DONT get them back!!!!!
I just reset the AE preferences - no help.

I have a new Mac Book Pro with Retina, and Keynote crash almoset every time i use it?

I have a new Mac Book Pro with Retina, and Keynote crashes almoset every time i use it? I have the newest update.
Could you please help me? I have a lot of Keynote shows, and I have to use it now!!
I have saved a crash report, if you need it.

Apple will not write back to you. Telephone using the Apple Care phone number appropriate for your country and ask for a refund, if that is what you want to do.
I use Keynote everday, it does exactly what it says it will do, that is if your NOT using Mountain LIon.
There are many applications available
I have used MS PowerPoint professionally for many years on both Windows and Mac, I can assure you it can do everything that Keynote can do and very much more.
Which software you choose depends on who you are and who you are presenting to.
for interactive presentations look at:
PowerPoint
Adobe Flash
Adobe Director
Camtasia
Dreamweaver (an HTML application)
for simple photo slide shows:
iPhoto
iMovie
Picasa
Photomagico
Adobe Lightroom

Upgrade apple Macbook pro with retina

Hi, i alredy know that the ram and the flash storage are soldered to the board in the new macbook pro with retina display but i just wondering if i go to an apple store could they send my macbook pro to apple and upgrade the ram and the flash storage and then send me back??? I alredy bought it an it cost me a lot but now i have the money to upgrade the ram and flash storage can i do it that way??

I'd rather suggest: Call Apple or take an appointment and walk into he store. They can't just turn you back. Apple can give you an upgrade even though the RAM in soldered in. They do it for the iPad all the time, tap hey simply take your unit and give you anothe and you pay e difference. They use stock that is different from the retail packages nd may run out from time to time but I don't believe you are stock with it. At the worst, you may pays bit more than the initial upgrade cost and be sure to backup before you go.

I bought a macbook pro in boston on October 25th, can I exchange it for the Macbook pro with retina. It has not been turned on - only the box has been opened.

I've never turned on my new macbook pro but I want to exchange it for the new Macbook pro with retina display. Is this possible. I have the receipt. Box was opened.

No - you have 14 days from date of purchase to exchange or get a refund. That should have been on your receipt somewhere.
I'm afraid that you're just going to have to sell your computer, somehow, and put that money towards a new one.
Why in the world did you buy what you didn't want?

I just bought a new 13" Macbook Pro. Why is it mid 2012 model?

I just bought a brand new Macbook Pro. Why isn't it a mid 2014 model?

If your new MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012) is the model without Retina display,
you likely have the correct model information per the mid-2012 designator; since
the model is still in production. The Retina models have seen update or refresh
since mid-2012, and so have a different build date; but not non-Retina model that
has an optical drive. Since the non-retina MB/Pro 13" has an optical drive, the
media on DVD includes an earlier OS X version, & software, plus hardware test.
•Some of general specs MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012) are as follows:

You could check http://everymac.com for other product specs and also look
into the MacBook/Pro Apple Store online product page to match spec info.
Looks like you did get the correct model for the year, check model identifier
and series build info against other databases. Apple has additional info.
If instead, you intended to get a Retina MB/Pro model, then you may have an issue.
Good luck & happy computing!

I have just bought a new mac book pro with lion. I have a Ibook g4 with the latest 10.4 and I can't get the migration assistant to work the pro still says to update the g4 machine and I have used the latest update.

I can't seam to get the migration to work between my g4 running 10.4 with all the upgrades including migration assistant 1.0.6 to talk to my new Pro.
The pro tells me to upgrade the g4's migration assistant and that has been done as much as I can find.

Hi 'baltwo'
Thank you for your link, I already had been on this particular website this afternoon. they only discuss problems in the application and nothing about how the MS Office application installation does disturb Mac OS.
Or have I missed a special comment there?
In any case many thanks, trioloGo

Car charger available for new 13" macbook pro with retina display?

There are none for any MBP that Apple sells or endorses. I have seen some available, but none that I am willing to take a risk with.
Ciao.
