MacBook Pro Retina EFI Update 1.0 taking a long time
Does the MacBook Pro Retina EFI Update 1.0 take a long time - mine is just saying "Waiting..." after 20 minutes. Updating from the App Store. Thanks
hi, i wasnt able to find the EFI update in my App store. My computer is also MBPro Retina Mid 2012.
would you mind telling me your boot rom version after you successfully installed this EFI updated? (Anyone?)
mine is:
Boot ROM Version: MBP101.00EE.B02
Although i dont remember installing this EFI update. After I installed 10.8.2, i was only able to see the iphoto update, and
after that, nothing. Until now, there's no update from App Store.

Macbook Pro Retina EFI update 1.2 doesn't clear from software update list after installing
I've had this problem for a few weeks.
I install the update via the App Store, the system restarts, but afterwards I get a notice from the App Store that the same update needs to be installed. If I look further down the list of installed items it does record the update as being installed, but I'm not sure if it was really installed.
Note: I have tried to install the update manually w/o the App Store, but I still get a notice from the App Store after restart that the update needs installing.
This isn't huge deal, but it's kind of annoying that I'm not sure if the update was installed or not, and frankly, my OCD kicks in whenever I see that this update is still not clearing from the list of items to be installed.
By the way, the update has to do with the nvidia card not losing performance after the computer wakes up.
Thank youHi there
However, I spoke to Apple and was given the following advice:

MacBook Pro Retina SMC Update 1.1 Won't Install
Hi Everybody. I am having a really annoying problem with my rMBP. I have the update labaled: "MacBook Pro Retina SMC Update 1.1" Available in my Mac AppStore app. After I click update, I get a prompt letting me know that the laptop needs to be plugged in, I hit ok. It downloads (very small file) and asks me to Restart or hit "Not Now". I click restart, the system reboots into a updating page where a status bar quickly completes. The laptop restarts again back to OSX. I open up the appstore and goto the updates page and what do I see? 1 available update: MacBook Pro Retina SMC Update 1.1, like I never did anything to begin with.
My system info is:
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: MacBookPro10,1
Processor Name: Intel Core i7
Processor Speed: 2.6 GHz
Number of Processors: 1
Total Number of Cores: 4
L2 Cache (per Core): 256 KB
L3 Cache: 6 MB
Memory: 8 GB
Boot ROM Version: MBP101.00EE.B02
SMC Version (system): 2.3f32
Serial Number (system): xxx
Hardware UUID: xxx
Please help this is really annoying.I had the same problem. Tried all the proposed fixes. Nothing worked. This solved my problem:
1. Install a fresh copy of mountain lion on an extern disk
2. Startup from that disk
3. Update to 10.8.3.
4. Restart
5. Open app store, go to updates. You should see the SMC 1.1. update.
6. Click update
7. Restart
Once the update installed (fan will go quickly to max speed during startup) switch back to your internal disk and start up. Now the SMC 1.1. update shouldn't show up in the app store/upadtes. -

MacBook Pro Retina 2013 will freeze if waked from long sleep if left with open lid
Hello!
Have a strange problem.
My new MacBook Pro Retina 13 will not wake from sleep state if left with open lid for a long period of time. (8-12 hours)
Ship happens ONLY in this case and only if left with open lid.
Screen lights up, I see a user window with password invitation - but no mouse pointer is present and keyboard doesn't respond and the apple on the backside of the lid is light up even if I close the lid.
TimeCapsule backups are creted during sleep state, no other malfunctions detected during use - laptop funtions normally from any side except this problemSolved.

No DVDs after MacBook Pro firmware EFI update?
I am no longer able to play video DVDs after updating to the recent MacBook Pro EFI Firmware update 1.2. The odd thing is that DVD Player says "Supported disk not available", the disks do not show up in the Finder, but Disk Utility shows the disks. This also happens to the one Windows game DVD I have on hand. My Civ IV DVD shows up in the Finder as per normal.
Does anyone know what the heck is going on? Or, alternatively, does anyone know how I can actually get ahold of Apple support? They have the single most unfriendly support system ever; I can't even find a support request form.Just got off the phone with Apple support.
They will not help me unless I buy a $300 AppleCare plan or pay $50 for a one-time incident.
I do not understand how they can charge for a software issue that they caused. Then the support personnel has the gall to tell me that the only way that Apple will hear about this problem is if I go through official support channels (ie set up an incident account with him). I am a student. I do not have $50 lying around unless I fast for a week.
Anyone with an AppleCare plan active who can report this problem? Alternatively, is there any possible way to get this reported to Apple, since as far as I'm concerned it's a serious issue with their firmware update that needs to get fixed stat, without paying for the privilege?
What a screwed up system. Apple effectively tells me that I need to install an update that breaks functionality on my computer and then refuses to even hear about it. I have received far better support (and via email, too) from Microsoft without them so much as bringing up the matter of payment.
Sometimes I wonder why I'm loyal to Apple at all. I love their products, but times like this make me hate the company with a passion. -
Where can I get the Boot Disk for my macbook pro? Downloading OSX Lion is taking too long
I got a macbook pro that was owned by someone for a few days before. I tried to restore to factory setting but now downloading OSX Lion is taking forever with my internet connection. Can anyone help me find a boot Disk to speed up the process?
Apple no longer sells a Lion installation USB flash drive (they did at one time). SO you'll just have to wait for the download to complete. It's best to 'hard-wire' the download - not over wifi but with an Ethernet cable connected directly to your router. That will gain you some speed.
You could also try taking your MBP to a friend's home where they may have a faster Internet service. My download speed is 22+Mbps with my cable company - you may have a friend or neighbor who has something similar? Of course, you are always at the mercy of Apple's servers - sometimes they're just overloaded and a download that should take 20 minutes can take up to an hour and one-half.
Good luck,

At my desk I usually plug 2 external monitor (one via HDMI, one via Display port) and an external APPLE USB keyboard and BT touchpad.
Most of the time I unplug the HDMI cable the built-in keyboard and touchpad stop working.
This is very annoying issue because I have to force a shutdown to fix that.
Only sometimes it got fixed by plugging back the HDMI cable.
I already patched with MacBook Pro Retina EFI Update v1.3 and Issue persists.
Is there anyone else with the same issue?
Any idea on how to fix it?Have you done an SMC reset lately? Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
May or may not work. -
Macbook pro Retina Photoshop ONLY graphic artifacts
I have a macbook pro Retina Mid 2012 for work. And every time I use photoshop, and move the cursor around I see very annoying graphical artifacts on the left and top of the screen. This looks like a driver issue one might expect on a PC. I can't take a screen shot of it, since it goes away when I try to do that.. of course. but attached below is a mockup of what it basically looks like. (I cannot upgrade to maverick due to not workig with software we need at the office)
This ONLY happens in Photoshop. and has been happeneing ever since the laptop was first purchased. Has anyone else seen something like this? Is there a driver update to fix it? etc...There are so many apps that use the NVIDIA GPU... download gfxCardStatus and install it so that you can get a handle on apps that use the GPU processor (Chrome, any Creative Suite app, etc.).
If the problem only occurs when using the discrete GPU in PS then it's either a hardware fault or a PS fault - you'll know if other apps that use the NVIDIA chip display the same anomalies.

Despite EFI update, Trackpad unresponsive on MacBook Pro Retina (Late 2013)
Tonight (Nov 11), my trackpad stopped working completely on my MacBook Pro Retina (Late 2013 - OS X 10.9). It does not seem to notice anything (clicks, movement, scrolling, etc.). Also my keyboard has stopped working once.
I have the Macbook Pro EFI Firmware Update (Version 1.3), which was apparently installed as of November 8th. I've read that it is supposed to fix the problem, which is odd because the issue did not start for me until after I had the update. Would be grateful for some help. Thank you.
(Currently, I'm using my Logitech Cordless Click Optical Mouse as a replacement.)I also have experienced the same problem even though I have installed the update.
I have asked Apple to ring me for a discussion today, however, not sure what can be done if the fix doesn't do what its supposed to do.
Happy days (my first Macbook pro) not so happy!!!
I would be grateful for any thoughts as to how I can prevent the lockups

Facetime and iMessage on Macbook Pro Retina display slow after Yosemite 10.10.3 Update
Hi
I recently updated my Macbook Pro Retina display to Yosemite 10.10.3 update. I see that the Facetime and iMessage has become relatively very slow. Like for example when someone calls on my phone it takes like more than 15 seconds + to show up on my macbook. Earlier it used to be like instant!
I started seeing this problem on Yosemite 10.10.3 update only. Also the same is the story with iMessage. When I get an SMS or an iMessage from my friends it takes like a good 30 seconds + to show up on my macbook pro.
Just for your information, this is the version of macbook i am using
MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013)
2.4 GHz Intel Core i5
8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
251GB Flash storage
As Suggested by someone I also tried RESETTING my computer's PRAM. That didn't seem to help either. Can anyone help. If it is a genuine bug in Apple Yosemite, I'd like to file a bug in the community.
Regards
ShreyasHi Barney,

So I bought the new Macbook Pro Retina 15" and restored from my Macbook Pro 13". Everything is good except that when I go to AppStore to update other Apps it says I need the latest 10.8.2 update but that doesnt' even show up. Is there some new update coming out soon that will resolve my problem?
If the 10.8.3 comes out and I can't update it from the AppStore, then I'll try your original method you wrote "
Boot to the Recovery HD partition, Command+r at startup, and select Reinstall Mac OS"
But with that method, do I keep everything or will I lose everything? If it keeps it, I can do that right now then.
Thanks!!!
