  • Black boot screen and startup manager on mid 2014 rMBP after upgrading to Yosemite

    After upgrading to Yosemite I'm experiencing black booting process. Moreover, I noticed that the startup manager, which we access by holding the option key, has the black background too. I didn't like the Yosemite, so I downgraded back to Mavericks, but I still have the startup manager with the black background and the initial screen during the startup sound is black too, and after that the grey screen with the Apple logo comes up, which is typical for Mavericks. I want my startup manager to have the grey background as before. And also, before there was the grey screen during the startup sound, not the black one. How to revert all this to the previous state? I'm experiencing all this on my rMBP, 13-inch, mid-2014.
    I want to revert because after downgrading back to Mavericks my rMBP started freezing terribly, especially on youtube, ebay and app store. And it's not just the web browsing, it's freezing when navigating in finder too. I know there are many experienced users here, so I hope that somebody can help me with this. Before upgrading to Yosemite my machine was running flawlessly.

    nobody?

  • Mid-2014 rMBP Display Issue

    Last week, bought mid-2014 base model rMPB 13.3. Display was warm yellowish with greenish tint. Compared with store models, which all had cool blue. Replacement had same issue, so I asked for refund. Display looked worse than my late 2010 base model 13" MBA. Want to stay with Apple, but am concerned that all, if not most, of the mid-2014s have this defect. Can anyone corroborate?

    Anybody???

  • Mid 2014 IMAC with orginal Partion only being 400gb.

    I have a 1tb hardrive how can I restore the hard drive to factory settings and just have 1 partion at 1tb?
    I have gone through the disk utility and just have 1 partition at 1tb but it wont let me. 

    Hi DevilDoc123,
    It sounds like you have 2 partitions of which you want to delete one, and enlarge the other to regain all the space under a single partition. You will need to delete the second partition first, then you will be able to resize the other. These steps from the Disk Utility Help should assist you in that:
    Partition a disk - Disk Utility Help
    To enlarge a partition, you must delete the partition that comes after it on the disk, then move the end point of the partition you want to enlarge into the freed space. You can’t enlarge the last partition on a disk.
    WARNING: When you delete a partition, all data on it is erased. Be sure to back up your disk's databefore you begin.
    Select the disk in the sidebar that contains the partition you want to enlarge, then click Partition.
    In the Partition Layout list, select the partition beneath the partition you want to enlarge, then click Delete .
    The partition is immediately erased, leaving the space it formerly occupied available.
    Resize the partition by doing one of the following:
    Drag the dividers between the partitions in the Partition Layout list.
    Select a partition in the Partition Layout list, then enter a value in the Size field.
    Click Apply.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

    Last night I came across an image persistence issue that seems to plague most rMBP users that have been supplied with an LG Panel.
    I'd like to confirm that this issue is still present in Apple's most recent iteration of the Macbook Pro (Mid 2014). I purchased this 13" rMBP just under a month ago, I was hoping to improve my productivity with this purchase only to find it has hindered it further. I work with illustrator and photoshop, sometimes both at the same time. I've noticed switching between applications that there seems to be a faint silhouette of the illustrator window. When I first noticed this issue I told myself "There's no way that's burn-in, this is clearly not a plasma display and it's 2014" After a prompt restart, the faint silhouette was still there and all I could feel was frustration and complete regret after making such an expensive purchase. The feeling I had at the Apple store was similar to when I purchased my Canon 5D, you save up all this money and expect a premium product. Only this time around, I'm not quite as joyful about my purchase. The faint silhouette overlays my photos, and can be a problematic during post production. Although the silhouette may only be visible for minutes at a time before it completely disappears, this has caused me to walk away from my Mac. Which is something I have been trying to avoid, and it was working until last night.
    My question is, has LG made any changes to their most recent production of Retina displays?
    Do 13" rMBPs come with Samsung displays?
    What are my options outside of the 14-day return window?
    I'd like to avoid repair, one time I brought in my iPad and the genius was practically sliding and dropping my iPad on the genius bar. I know that Apple tries to set the bar when it comes to personal computing, and in some cases customer service. So, is it wrong of me to expect quality from a premium manufacturer?
    Thank you.

    No, I did not misread, it died in 4 hours and 20 mins.
    That sounds better. You confused me with:
    ...only 4:49 minutes remaining.
    My science-major mind saw that as 4 minutes 49 seconds.
    Still, you should get more runtime. Here is another Apple article that helps with battery life and heating issues:
    Runaway applications can shorten battery runtime, affect performance, and increase heat and fan activity - Apple Support
    The article was written before OS 10.9 and 10.10, so you need to make a change in Step 3 for 10.10. To make the required change from "My Processes" to All Processes," you now need to use Activity Monitor's "View" menu:
    Another thing that is not clear in the article is that you will not get good results if you run the test immediately after a restart. Use the computer normally for about a day so that any runaway processes are activated, quit any apps you launched, then run the test.

  • Bootcamp Installation rMBP Mid 2014 Chaos

    I am trying to install Bootcamp on my friends mid-2014 13" rMBP without success.
    So far we have spent 2 nights and 6 hours working on this.  I am convinced there are problems with Apple's Bootcamp Utility and/or firmware.
    After successfully creating the USB installer drive, and partitioning the mac, we cannot boot from the USB drive.
    I am an advanced user and have tried everything, including different ISO's, PRAM resets, booting from the CD with Superdrive, the whole deal.
    What's disappointing is that I'm helping my mate out who is new to the Mac, he still occasionally needs Windows and this was a major feature that led him to switch.  It doesn't make Apple look good.  Obviously, from reading the forums, this is a common and well known issue with the last two generations of rMBP.
    We are currently deployed overseas and don't have access to an Apple Store or genius.
    I know these are user-forums, but I assume Apple does monitor these from time to time, they would be stupid not to.
    Any ideas?

  • Windows 8.1 on 13" rMBP Mid 2014 unusable. Slow, choppy audio/video

    I've installed Windows 8.1 Pro on my new 13" rMBP Mid 2014 and it runs terribly slow. The mouse movement is choppy and I can't even listen to music, which is horrible. The computer often as if it's running at 100% capacity - even though it's almost idle. If I click a link or press a button the audio track skips and does so randomly, too. On OSX it runs at least 10 times as well/flawless. I saw that some people said Retina laptops are slower with Windows because of the screen, but I'm not even using the Retina screen. I am on a external monitor with a disabled screen.
    Check out this DPC Latency Report:
    Troubleshooting attempts:
    - I've checked if there's an update for the audio drivers available and just reinstalled the current one.
    - I've reinstalled the newest Boot Camp Support Software.
    - My OSX version (the one before Yosemite) is fully updated.
    - I've disabled many devices in the device manager (network, audio, sound, etc) to see if it's a faulty driver, but couldn't find it.
    Do you also have similar problems with Windows 8.1 on the newest MBP? What can I do to fix this?
    Thanks

    On an older 13" 2012 MBP with Intel HD4K. (and an SSD - if there are no paging/swapping issues otherwise), it shows

  • Macbook Pro 15" Retina Mid 2014 MOUSE/TRACKPAD LAG. PLEASE HELP!!

    Hello,
    I just bought a new Macbook Pro OSX Yosemite this week. Retina, 15 inch, Mid 2014. 2.2 GHz i7. 16GB RAM. 256 GB HD. I've been noticing a lag when I use the trackpad and the bluetooth mighty mouse. It seems to happen completely randomly. If I don't use my computer for a long time and then start to use it again it sometimes lags for a second and then works, and then lags again, and on and on...
    Sometimes the lags are 2 seconds long and sometimes they're less than 1 second long. It seems my mouse, trackpad AND keyboard are all affected by this problem. I'm pretty upset, seeing as how I paid over 2 grand for this computer. Does anybody have ANY idea at all what is causing this AND what I can do about it?? I'm not a huge computer guy.
    The problem doesn't seem big enough to get a whole new computer. It seems like an Apple technician could fix this in 2 seconds. Wouldn't you agree? Please help. Thanks

    I have similar problems with a much older system (a late 2008 MacBook Pro). In my case, the  problems with BlueTooth peripheral (mainly the Magic Mouse) are almost always associated with TimeMachine back-ups. This is a well known problem in the sense that I have seen posts about it going back to 2011, but I have never seen any specific solutions offered.

  • What are the default apps that come with a macbook pro Mid 2014

    Hi all,
    so what happened is that I forgot my password (the computer's) and I did erase all and came back on the factory reset. All is fine so far, but I am missing a lot of my apps - I sure did chat with apple and they made something so that I can get my Pages and etc back, but seems like I am missing a lot. I will show a screen shot to see the current situation. I use MacPro Mid 2014, from apple online store.

    If you suspect something is missing, describe what you think it may be. The programs in your screenshot appear to be the correct ones.

  • Triple monitors with Macbook Pro Mid-2014

    Despite having three video ports (two Mini DisplayPorts and one HDMI) I can't get three monitors (HP EliteDisplay E231, 1920 x 1080) to work with my brand new Mid 2014 MacBook Pro 15-inch 2.2GHz with the Intel Iris Pro video controller. I've seen videos on youtube of people successfully connecting three monitors to older 2013 MBPs. What am I doing wrong?
    I don't understand what the issue is, the Intel Iris Pro can address over 1GB of memory, that's more than enough to drive 6.2 million pixels, and the thunderbolt 2 ports are 20 Gbit/s each!
    Multi Stream Transport seems to be broken in Mac OS X. I've also looked at USB 3.0 Video Adapters, but there are no Thunderbolt to USB hubs, and it appears that Apple broke all the drivers for DisplayLink adapters. I've even tried a Matrox triplehead2go dp edition, but even that doesn't work correctly, the matrox controller software won't let me drive all three monitors at 1920x1080.
    I have an HP EliteBook 9470m with an Intel HD 4000 that has no problems driving these three monitors.
    Seriously, what the ****? All I want is three monitors to work.

    Yes that is exactly the configuration I used, these are the cables I purchased from amazon:
    StarTech.com 6 ft Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort 1.2 Adapter Cable M/M - DisplayPort 4k with HBR2 support

  • MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014)preview messing with PSD file

    MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014)
    2.5 GHz Intel Core i7
    v: 10.10.1
    after turning my PSD painting upside down using preview, preview modifies the PSD document and flattens all my layers.
    now I lost all my layers in my painting!
    Why does preview mess around with PSD documents? Please fix this!

    Hi David.  I don't have as modern a Macbook Pro as you, mine is a 2012 model, but perhaps I can help.  I often find that my SD card will not load when I first insert it.  I have to remove it and then put it into the slot again firmly.
    You also haven't posted any information about the SD card.  What size is it, do you know how it is formatted, has it worked in that same mac previously, where did it come from, does it currently work in another device (such as your camera)?  This sort of information will help to narrow down the problem.
    If you post some more information I'm sure people will try to help you.  In the meantime, if you look at your post again you should see "More Like This" at the bottom of the page and you may find an answer in some of those related posts.
    Hope that helps.

  • Graphics/artifacting issues with new mid-2014 15" MacBookPro Retina

    I'm having graphics issues with my new 15" mid-2014 2.8 MacBookPro Retina.  It came with Yosemite.  I keep get glitchy
    artifacting when using Premiere Pro and After Effects (CC 2014), obviously, but then even just while using Finder when AE and PP are closed.
    I've read about it with earlier models, but nothing about the new ones.
    I turned off the Automatic Graphics Switching in Energy Saver and just updated my CUDA NVIDIA driver.  It's still a problem.  Any ideas on what to do next?
    Thanks in advance.

    Remove CUDA and see whether there's an improvement.
    To remove CUDA, triple-click anywhere in the first line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Frameworks/CUDA.framework

    /System/Library/StartupItems/CUDA
    /usr/local/cuda
    Right-click or control-click the line and select

    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Continue with the remaining lines. Some of the items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file couldn't be found. After moving all the above items to the Trash, restart the computer and empty the Trash. Don't try to empty the Trash until you have restarted.
    If you haven't already done so, back up all data before making any changes.

  • No Trackpad / Keyboard on Windows 7 Installation on mid-2014 15" Retina MacBook Pro

    Hello,
    Although there is a similar thread regarding this  --  this applies to a newly released mid-2014 15" Retina MacBook Pro and the solution posted in the original thread does not work for this newer model.
    I am attempting to install Windows 7 Professional 64-bit on a mid-2014 15" Retina MacBook Pro.  (Running Mavericks 10.9.5)  I Have both an original Windows 7 Install DVD and a downloaded ISO file as well.
    PLEASE NOTE:  That because I have need for multiple partitions on the SSD drive, I am not able to use Boot Camp Assistant to do the actual install.  I have accomplished this a number of times in the past without any issues during or after the install.  I have an MS-DOS(FAT) partition ready to go.
    When I restart from the Windows 7 install DVD I get to the "Choose Language" screen and I have no trackpad or keyboard.  A wired USB Mouse does not work either
    I am not able to create an install USB drive for this model because Boot Camp Assistant gets to the "Download the latest Windows support software from Apple" task it gives an error message "Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server"  (NOTE: Using Boot Camp Assistant to ONLY "Download the latest Windows support software from Apple" as I get the same error message when attempting to do that.
    It is my understanding based on the Apple article   http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634  that I need to download the driver software directly from Apple with the link they provide.  I DID successfully download the Windows support software from Apple following the instructions in that article.  However, I am not aware of any way to include that downloaded software when using Boot Camp Assistant to create a USB install drive.
    I tried the trick with the USB drive as explained in apple article  http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4599  but even with a freshly formatted MS-DOS(FAT) USB drive in the USB port on the left of the MacBook Pro and the Apple USB Optical Drive plugged into the USB port on the right side of the MacBook Pro, I still have no Trackpad or keyboard when I get to the first screen of the Windows installation.
    I spent the last two days searching posts here and in general and only end up more baffled than before . . .
    I am as positive as possible that the USB drives I am using are USB 2 and NOT USB 3.  Although I guess that does not matter if I can't use Boot Camp Assistant to create a Windows installer that includes the Windows drivers for the MacBook Pro Hardware . . .
    Some of the posts suggest that the Windows drivers from Apple need to be included on a USB install drive created with Boot Camp Assistant.  That appears to be impossible at the moment if the Software Update Server does not contain them.  I am confused as to why the are available directly from Apple  http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1721 but they are not available when using Boot Camp Assistant????
    Am I missing something???  Is this just a matter of waiting for Apple to add the necessary drivers to the Software Update server???  (It has only been two months since this MacBook Pro was released)
    Has anyone successfully installed Windows 7 Professional 64-bit on a mid-2014 MacBook Pro running Mavericks???
    Any guidance would be greatly appreciated . . .

    1. I have tried copying the Keyboard/Trackpad/Mouse drivers to the $WinPEDriver$ directory with mixed success on a 2012 MBP.
    2. My experience is based on a 2013 rMBP. You may be able to use an Apple USB Keypad/Mouse to better success.
    3. See http://www.macworld.com/article/2460820/macbook-pro-mid-2014-review-minor-update -offers-slightly-better-cpu-performance.html for HW differences between the two machines.
    4. If you have access to a 2013 rMBP, I can suggest trying to build the USB on that and working with the USB to see if you can make it install Windows. the rMBP 2014 and rMBP 2013 have the same HW, except some CPU changes. You can also try building the USB at the nearest Apple store, if possible.
    5. There is a section in AutoUnattend.xml, which is supposed to install all drivers in $WinPEDriver$ (see this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2686316 )
