Trying to restoring a late 2013 macbook pro from a 2010 macbook pro

Hi I have problems with my 13"retina macbook pro from late 2013.There is something on it that makes it 4 times slower in boot up than the other two one from 2009 and 20010 all are running 10.9.5, so I thought I would clone one of them that has all the programs I need on it .
Having cloned it with ccc to a external hard disc and testing to see that it boots, witch it dose in the machine it was cloned on, but when I tried to boot from it on the retina it will not.
Any one who could shed some light on why this is so would be very welcome.
Thanks

anything that shipped with a 2.5" form factor SATA Hard Drive can be upgraded to an Apple or aftermarket 2.5" form factor SATA "SSD-in-a-can".
the early SSD-only MacBook Air models shipped with a "stick" form factor SSD-ONLY in a special SATA socket. No room for a 2.5" form factor Hard drive. OWC and perhaps some others developed some aftermarket "drives" that are compatible.
I think it is only the 2013 models MacBook Air and MacBook Pro and Mac Pro (that do not have a 2.5" hard drive option) that made the leap to the "stick" form factor with a PCIe connection with a different special connector.
These PCIe SSDs are really fast, possibly on the order of 800 MBytes/sec. Compare to a 7200RPM Hard drive's 125 M Bytes/sec burst.

Is there a way to digitize audio using the headphone input on the 15-inch (late 2013) Macbook Pro with Retina display?

I'd like to digitize audio from a minidisc player into my 15-inch (late 2013) Macbook Pro with retina display, but can't see a way to change the internal mic input. I understand that previous MacBooks allowed the headphone jack to double as a mic input, but mine doesn't seem capable of switching. I've tried using a mini to mini cable, with no luck, and also tried using a headset splitter adapter (3.5 mm 4-pin to 2x3-pin 3.5 mm headset splitter adapter from Amazon) because I read that that would allow me to plug in headphones and input audio. But in both cases, the only "input" available in my sound preferences is the built-in internal microphone. Am I missing something? Is there a way to digitize audio through the headphone jack?

Not likely. headphone jacks are usually output only devices unless specifically stated to support input, and even then, it may not be audio input that they support, but merely control input for volume and such.
You can get a USB audio input instead. i.e:

Help! My Canon MG5520 printer is apparently not connected to my late 2013 MacBook Pro!

Help! My Canon MG5520 printer is apparently not connected to my late 2013 MacBook Pro! I have had this printer a few months and everything has been working fine until today. I did I have to turn my wifi router on and off this morning, so I think that might be it. I'm not extremely tech savy, so if anyone could lend a hand, I would appreciate it!! I've tried unplugging it, turning it on and off again, quitting it my from laptop, nothing works. Do I need to reconnect it to the wifi? How do I do this? I turns on fine and doesn't give my any error messages, it'st just my laptop that says it isn't connected. Sorry if this is a stupid question.

Thanks for providing complete information. It seems like you've ruled out faulty docking cable, bad USB port, and software issue on the new Mac. And since the shuffle still works fine on the older Mac, it's not a problem on the shuffle.
Some things to try...
Connect the MacBook to its power adapter, so that it's not running the battery power. If any other USB devices are connected, try connecting the shuffle as the only device, to a direct USB port on the MacBook.
If you can keep it connected for long enough, go to the shuffle's Settings screen in iTunes and set it to Enable disk use (and Apply). This will keep the shuffle's disk mounted continuously, instead of iTunes unmounting the shuffle's disk when not syncing.
If you happen to have an old USB 2.0 hub that has its own power supply, connect the shuffle through the hub to see if that make any difference. The new Macs have USB 3.0, so if that's the cause, maybe a USB 2.0 hub in between can act as a "buffer" and make it work.

I need a recommendation for a 24" monitor for my late 2013 MacBook Pro

I need a recommendation for a 24" professional photography monitor for my late 2013 MacBook Pro. I am looking for a monitor that plays well with my 13" late 2013 Macbook pro. I tryed the Dell U2413 and found after the fact that it did not work well with my Macbook pro. Read up on the Asus PA 249Q, It also seems to have problems with my Macbook Pro. Apple display is larger than i want. Looking for recommendations for compatable IPS monitor for use with Aperture. buget is $300 to $800.
Anybody happy with thiers?
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mavericks (10.9), Aperture 3.5.1

Any monitor will work. Decide what specs work best for your needs and get that monitor.

Why my safari browser is not opening pdf files?I'm currently using the lat 2013 macbook pro with os mavericks and all my software is uptodate?

Why my safari browser is not opening pdf files?I'm currently using the lat 2013 macbook pro with os mavericks and all my software is uptodate?

Back up all data.
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected. Otherwise do as follows.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Downgrade late 2013 Macbook Pro to Mountain Lion

Hello,
I've seen a few threads on this and the consensus seems to be that it can't/shouldn't be done. Some of us are in situations in corporate environments where we can't upgrade so please don't post here to tell me I can't/shouldn't downgrade. I started this thread in the hopes that with enough people working on it we can figure out a way to make it work.
I can get my 10.8.5 image to boot my late 2013 Macbook Pro by replacing /System/Library/CoreServices/PlatformSupport.plist with a PlatformSupport.plist from the original 10.9 install. It seems stable however I don't get any sound. No input or output devices show up in System Information --> Audio --> devices. I've tried replacing AudioAUUC.kext and AppleHDA.kext with ones from a 10.9 machine but that doesn't help.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to get the sound working?

Hello tor.support
Did you ever get a solutin for this?
I just spent £1700 on a new MBP to find my audio soundscard does not support Mavericks - normally not such a big deal as I work with computers and thought it would be a simple downgrade to Lion.
Really dont want to take the machine back to apple, but I cant wait for Zoom (audio manufacturer) to get their software updated. It's been 8 months. I need a system that works.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you

How to install system on late 2013 macbook pro retina ?

Hmmm .... I need help.
I deployed a 10.9.1 from a new MBA image to the new 15" MBPr .... not a good idea. It won't boot because of the special build that the late 2013 requires.
So the original recovery HD is gone, so can't go that route. Now I need help badly. How to get the darn thing to bootup .... or how to start over ?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Your Late 2013 MacBook Pro comes with Internet Recovery, which can be used without needing a Recovery partition. To start up in Internet Recovery, hold Command, Option (Alt) and R keys while your Mac is starting, and reinstall OS X. You will get OS X 10.9.1, and the Mavericks installer will create the OS X Recovery partition.
Your MacBook Pro requires a special OS X 10.9.1 build that is not available for any other Mac, and you cannot install the "normal" OS X 10.9.1 version on your MacBook Pro. Apple will fix this in a future update, when your MacBook Pro and all other Macs use the same OS X build.

Late 2013 Macbook Pro Retina 15' will not boot an external disk from a Mid-2012 MAcbook Pro. What should I do?

In order to simplify moving all my files from the previous mid-2012 macbook pro 15' when moving to my new late-2013 macbook pro, i superdup-ed the full hard-disk to an external ssd. Unfortunatelly the new mac resuses to boot from this external disk (i get the grey disk with a line over it). The external disk works just fine so if I boot the new mac from its internal SSD I can read/write the external disk without problems.
Old OS X is 10.9 as is the OS on the new mac.
What I need to do is to boot the new mac from the external ssd, use the same superduper to copy the external content onto the internal ssd.
How can I solve this issue?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you made a backup of your files with SuperDuper, use Migration Assistant (in /Applications/Utilities) to transfer your files from the external drive > http://pondini.org/OSX/MigrateLion.html It will create a new user account with the transferred files, so you may want to merge both user accounts > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-5472
The Late 2013 MacBook Pro uses a special OS X Mavericks version which makes OS X compatible with it, and older OS X versions do not work with it. That's the reason why you cannot start up from the external drive created from the Mid 2012 MacBook Pro

Late 2013 macbook pro question

Hi there, Im new to the mac laptop world. I received the late 2013 Macbook Retina as a gift and I do some gaming or mixing for a few hours at a time. Now the core temperatures never exceed 76 C (typically 68-72).
Are these volatile temperatures for the CPU?
As well, should I worry about the fans longevity? Or should I let apple care plan take care of that?
8GB Ram 1600 MHz
2Ghz i7 quadcore Haswell (Iris Pro graphics)
Didnt grab the one with the Nvidia gpu.
To anyone who reads, thanks for your time! I appreciate it.

Are these volatile temperatures for the CPU?
No. These are well within normal operating temperature based on your usage. The thermal limit according to intel is 100 C (212F) for your processor. Additionally, your machine has firmware to automatically shut itself down in the event this temperature is exceeded for an extended period of time.
As well, should I worry about the fans longevity? Or should I let apple care plan take care of that?
The latter. Just use your machine normally. The fans are just serving their purpose, that being cooling your machine to keep the temperatures within stable operating parameters.

Late 2013 Macbook Pro Retina 13" Thunderbolt to DVI Connection to Samsung 24" - Static screen upon wakeup

Hi,
My Late 2013 Macbook Pro Retain 13" is connected to the Samsung 24" Samsung via Thunderbolt/DVI connector.
Upon wake up from sleep mode, the Samsung monitor displays a static screen.
Any idea what the cause maybe and how to fix it? - Right now I have to unplug and plug back the thunderbolt to fix the issue which I find annoying to do. Any better solution out there?
Thanks alot!

In a word, yes.
The video out capabilities for the 13" and 15" retina MBPs are the same.

Should I get an Early 2013 Macbook Pro 15 with GT 650m or Late 2013 Macbook Pro 15 with Iris Pro?

Hello everybody,
This is going to be my first Mac that I am going to buy (Yay!). I'm mainly going to use this for taking notes, typing essays, and playing games (Minecraft, TF2, Bluestacks client). Which Macbook Pro 15 should I buy?
Refurbished Macbook Pro 15" Early 2013 ($1659 + tax from Apple Refurbished)
Core i7 2.5 Ghz
8 GB RAM 1600 MHZ
256 GB SSD
NVIDIA GT650M with 1GB GDDR5
or
Macbook Pro 15" Late 2013 (new, $1849 from bhphotovideo, no tax)
Core i7 2.0Ghz
8 GB RAM 1600 MHZ
256 GB SSD
Intel Iris Pro 5200 Graphics
The prices are pretty much the same after taxes( I plan on either buying it from Refurb Apple Online, or brand new from bhphotovideo.com). I know the Intel Iris Pro are just integrated graphics, but is the performance on par with the GT650M for the things that I'm doing with the laptop?
Thank you

Anyone else having extra long delivery time for the late 2013 macbook pro 15" 2.6ghz 1tb model?

Anyone else having extra long delivery time for the late 2013 macbook pro 15" 2.6ghz 1tb model?
As of today feb 15 i have been waiting for 78 days. Finland doesn't have an official apple store (only authorized resellers) It was my mistake because i should have bought from apple.com. But i think 2.5 months is too long and i have no information about when i can get it..

The low-end 15” rMBP with a 8 GB or RAM and a 256 GB SSD costs $2,000.
The low-end 15” rMBP with a 8 GB or RAM and a 512 GB SSD costs $2,300.
With 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD it costs $2,500.
The high-end 15” rMBP with a 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD costs $2,600.
All cost $500 dollars more with a 1 TB SSD.
So the SSD size is not a differentiating factor unless you prefer 256 GB.
If you think you need 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD then you might as well spend the extra $100 for the high-end model.
The high-end model will make a difference on gaming and graphics-oriented applications.
They tend to run other applications at about the same speed.
Both models are rated with 8 hours of battery life.
Benchmarks on PhotoShop comparing memory sizes: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5659174?tstart=30
The speed was about 10% different between 8 GB and 16 GB models.
On other applications your mileage may vary.
Application benchmarks:
http://www.macworld.com/article/2059215/15-inch-retina-macbook-pro-review-a-tale -of-two-laptops.html
The low-end and high-end performed the about the same on non-graphics oriented applications.
Graphics oriented benchmarks:
On the Cinebench OpenGL benchmark the high-end was about twice as fast.
On the Unigine Heaven Benchmark benchmark they ran at about the same speed.
On the Unigine Valley Benchmark benchmark the high-end was about 1.5x as fast.

Duel microphone holes on the late 2013 MacBook Pro 15"

Are you meant to be able to see the duel microphone holes on the late 2013 MacBook Pro 15"
It shows them on the tech specs on the apple site and most other places I've seen, but mine doesn't have the holes.
Is it also common that pages, numbers and keynote were not automatically installed when I bought it new?
When setting up the new macbook I got an email saying;
Your Apple ID was used to sign in to iCloud on a MacBook Pro 13"
However it is a 15"... Should I be worried? I bought this off the online store.

If you do what I said - "Go to the bottom of the page and click on the Mics button." you will see the description - "under the speaker grille"

Just got a new "late 2013" Macbook Pro Retina, want to install Windows! (Newbie!)

Hello everyone!
I am brand new to the Apple Community and would like to pick at some brains here!
I just recently bought a new "late 2013" Macbook Pro here and would like to run Microsoft OneNote on my macbook. I have 2 predictaments though!
1. Which Windows OS is recommended? I searched around and seem to have found that alot of people are having issues with the Windows 8.1 version. Should I just stick to Windows 7?
2. Also, I know that the Macbook Pro does not have an optical drive; what is the best way to go on about getting the Windows 7 ISO onto a thumbdrive? Would I have to do it through another computer and burn the ISO on the thumbdrive there? Or is there a way to purchase Windows from my Macbook and download from the sellers website and just run Bootcamp to burn the image onto there?
Thank you and I look forward to joining this community!
Don

I am new to the community as well but have been an apple genuis for a while. The way I put windows on my mac (late 2012 pro) last year was I bought windows 7, and used bootcamp to install it. I would have someone at best buy or a tech store do it for you though. If you dont want to pay $200 for windows 7, you can just buy an app called parallels (also at like a best buy) and use that. I believe it is around $75 but not sure. Hope this helps

Can you still boot to the Recovery partition using Command and R whilst booting? Or did you wipe the Recovery partition as well?
If your Recovery partition is still intact, you can simply boot to it and reinstall the OS via the Internet. If you wiped the Recovery partition, you can hold down Command, option and R keys whilst booting and boot into true Internet Recovery mode. You'll be able to reformat the hard drive, erasing all partitions (format it as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" with a dingle GUID partition) and then reinstall the OS that shipped with your machine.
Note that you should use a physical Ethernet connection when restoring over the Internet - it's three times slower if you use wifi.
Try your Recovery partition first and if that doesn't work, use Internet Recovery.
