I use a macbook pro retina.  I use a 32 in. monitor and use it full screen. I size the screen manually.  Since i upgraded to maverick, I have to resize the screen each time I change windows.Before the upgrade the screen stayed where I put it.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click  Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually 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. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • My macbook pro retina deleted my multiple preferred networks. Is there a way to retrieve them?

    For some reason my multiple preferred networks, including relatives wi-fi networks, all of a sudden disappeared, along with mine under the network tab. Is there a way to retrieve them? Or do I have to wait until I am in those places and have to redo it all?
    Thanks.

    App data is stored in two places, on your phone, & as part of your phone's backup. If you restore your phone from your most recent backup, and follow this by syncing your content back to your phone, this will restore whatever app data was in your backup, back to your phone. Do not sync before doing this or you'll remove the app data from your backup.

    Unfortunately, that is not possible. The computer only can "output" your display image, it cannot "input" an image from an external computer and display it on your MacBook's retina display.

    Have you been trying to download from the app store? Did you get a message?
    As a suggestion, you might go to an Apple store (genius bar appointment) for help. As far as I know, there should be no charge.

  • HT3964 noisey dvd drive when using with macbook pro retina?

    I bought a new macbook pro retina 15" and used the apple external dvd drive to watch a movie and the drive was extremely loud and vibratory - to thr point of nearly not able to hear the movie. I then tried the same drive with the the same dvd with a macbook air and it did not have this issue. Anyone know how to solve the sound issue when using the dvd drive with a macbook pro retina 15"?  Thank you.

    Thank you - it is the DVD driver I purchased over a year ago with a Mac book air - I wondered whether they have since updated the DVD driver and therefore wondered about compatibility. I also wondered whether it had to do with the fact that I was on battery power when this happened any further thoughts appreciated.

  • Setup Mac Pro using my Macbook Pro Retina Display

    I received a new Mac Pro 3.2 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon and I would like to set it up using my Macbook Pro (07/12) Retina setup.  What is the best way to do this?  The Macbook Pro only has Thunderbolt and USB ports.  The Mac Pro has Firewire, USB, and ethernet ports.

    Both Macs can be connected to the Internet as well?
    If you can use Ethernet cables, the migration will go fairly quickly. over WiFi, plan on it taking many hours.
    Do you have Time Machine Backups? look at this article whether you do or not:

  • Hello, I'm using a Macbook Pro Retina 13 inch Late 2013. Is the HDMI output revision 2.0 or 1.4a? Thank you all!

    Just as the header states, Is the HDMI output on my macbook pro retina 13 inch the 2.0 version or the 1.4a version? Thank you!

    I'm asking this because, hdmi 2.0 allows 4K output at 60hz (right?) versus 30hz for HDMI 1.4a. I might connect another 4K display to my mac in the forseable future.

  • I recently updated my MacBook Pro and now it says I need to restart every time I turn the computer on.  It is on a grey screen.

    I have not used my MacBook Pro for a few months and when I started it up did all the microsoft and system updates.  Now it will not turn on and it goes to a grey page that state "You need to restart you computer. Hold down the Power button untilmitmturns off, then press the Power button again." I have done this several times and keep arriving at the same page. 

    OK, then there is little else to do other than to reinstall OS X.
    Make sure you removed everything connected to the MBP including any USB devices.
    If your Mac came with a System Install DVD, then insert it and hold the c key while starting your Mac. This will boot from the DVD instead of your internal disk.
    If you find the grey screen reappears then it may not have restarted from the disc, so try again. You have to get past this step to do anything. If you can't, the problem may be a dirty or damaged DVD or an inoperative optical drive.
    When it gets to the Mac OS C Utilities screen, select Disk Utility and repair your hard disk. Record any errors that it finds, since your problem may be due to a failed hard disk. If that is the case, the failure will probably arise again.
    Then, reinstall OS X. Reinstalling is non-destructive to your user accounts or data.
    If your Mac is running Lion, or Mountain Lion, you can boot OS X Recovery and perform all the above without a disc.

  • Did you MacBook Pro Retina performance improve significantly with Mavericks 10.9.5?

    My MacBook Pro Retina (Early 2013) is one of the unfortunate ones that suffered from extreme scroll lag and performance slowdowns.
    Beginning day one, I've had to employ workarounds such as using gfxCardStatus to force Discrete mode or to use a non-HiDPI resolution to reduce the symptoms.
    To my surprise, when I upgraded to Mavericks 10.9.5, nearly all my issues have been resolved. I'm back using high resolution modes without a single bit of slowdown. Scroll lag is also minimal or entirely gone. The last issue I have is with the Applications dock folder and the 'folder' viewing mode still producing severe lag, but I can live with that as I use Alfred to launch my applications anyway.
    Has anybody seen noticeable improvements like me? I queried others on MacRumors, but didn't get much feedback.

    Adobe Application Manager was the culprit. For some reason with the XI install, Adobe Application Manager would not launch. I was able to resolve by deleting all
    ~/Library/Preferences/ associated with older versions of Adobe and by cleaning out ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Acrobat

  • Why is iTunes not letting me watch HD movies using my Macbook Pro Retina?

    Please tell me this is a bug...if not this is quite utterly the most ******** thing ever.
    I have a brand new MBP-R. I was trying to purchase an HD movie using iTunes and I keep getting a message stating that HD content cannot be played back on this computer stopping me from purchasing it and instead only alowing an SD version. I tried another post's suggestion to try changing the resolution to scaled; however, that didn't work. Any other ideas?

  • Need Canon MP600 Driver for Macbook Pro Retina running OS10.9.1 Mavericks, Any Suggestions?

    The Canon website says the MP600 printer is not supported after OS10.7 but they do not offer any advice on alternatives.  I really need the basic print functions to print things such as web pages and documents and being able to use the scanner too would be nice. Other features I can live without. The printer is connected directly to the Macbook using USB.  Any suggestions on using drivers already loaded as standard on my Mac or generics that I can find online would be appreciated.

  • I'm using a Macbook Pro Retina. I'm connected using a wifi and FaceTime works perfectly. But if I open Safari(or Chrome, or Firefox or any other brower) it said: you're not connected to the internet. I've also an iPhone that works fine on the same wifi.

    Could it be  because I'm using the same IP address over 2 devices? How can I set them differently?
    Thank you very much.
