About MacBook Pro

Can I swap my MacBook Pro "13 inch" for the new MacBook Pro in Apple store? If so, how much it is going to cost me?

There are non-Apple vendors such as ExperCom who are authorized resellers and will accept trade-ins. You can find them using Google. Another is Sell Your Cell Phone and Electronics Trade In | Gazelle.com.

  • About MacBook Pro Warranty

    Hi guys,
    I just have two quick questions about MacBook Pro,
    First, how to identify a refurbished apple product? For example, if i am going to buy a MacBook from eBay, how do i know if it is not a refurbished laptop, is there a code which can be checked or something else?
    second, what are the necessary documents for Apple Warranty if i am not in the country where i bought the product?
    Thanks!!!

    The warranty is good worldwide and is tied to the machine's serial number, not to anything else. If your MBP's serial number identifies it in Apple's records as a machine that was sold for the first time +or factory refurbished and sold again+ within the past year, it will be covered anywhere.
    Any Mac that has been refurbished by Apple is sold with the same warranty as a brand new computer, so you should have no qualms at all about buying a refurb. The warranty-coverage status of any Mac can be determined immediately by entering its serial number into the box on this page:

  • About Macbook pro Model Number

    I want to ask about Macbook Pro Model # : ME294AE/A,that support Arabic language , Do (Apple in US) sell it ?, and if not,
    Do Model# ME294LL/A support Arabic language ?

    Apple US only sells computers with the "LL/A" suffix.  What do you mean by "support"?  With the proper font installed, you can type and download documents in the Arabic language.

  • Basic questions about macbook pro + external monitor

    Hi,
    I have some very basic questions about using a Macbook Pro + external display. I don't actually have them but need to know how things works.
    So, here they are:
    1) Can I use the external display as the main display?
    2) Will the external display run with its resolution or with that of the mbook pro?
    3) Somewhere I read that you cannot keep the macbook pro open and get the full resolution of the external display. Is that true ?
    4) Is it dangerous to keep the mbook closed while using the external display?
    5) Does the usage of the external display impact on mbook performance?
    I know...a lot of questions , but would be nice if someone could help me.
    Thanks.

    Hi - I am presently using an external display.
    To answer your questions in sequence:
    1. Yes you can use the external display as your main display. The way to enable that mode is to put your MacBook Pro to sleep, attach the external display. Wake up your MBPro with the lid closed and you will see the external display as you main display. You can alternatively set the external to "Mirror" your notebook by using preferences/display.
    2. The external display will run at its resolution although you can adjust and calibrate it using Preferences/Display.
    3. Not true. You get max resolution on both displays. Of course you may have to tweak as mentioned above.
    4. Not at all. I use this mode all the time. Just make sure you initially set up as mentioned above and your LCD on the MBPro will stay off.
    5. I have not seen any performance degradation whatsoever.
    Hope this helps.

  • A few questions about Macbook Pro 13inch batteries.

    Hey, my Macbook Pro just arrived today, and I was wondering about general battery care:
    Is it okay to leave it plugged in while using it?
    How come there's a longer power cord and a shorter one? Is it just for convenience?
    How long does a Macbook usually take to charge to 100%?
    Is it okay to leave it plugged in all night?
    Sorry if I sound stupid, but I'm not very tech-savvy. Thanks for any help!
    xx

    Yes, you can leave it plugged in.  Once in a while however, you have to use it under it's own power, at least till it reaches 80% to keep your battery in optimal condition.
    As for the power cord, you answered that one yourself " for convenience "
    How long does it take long to charge all depends on how low the battery was when you charged it.
    Yes, it's ok to leave your Macbook plugged in all night.  Just make sure you use it under it's own power once in a while.  You don't have to fully discharge it which might do more harm than good.

  • About MacBook Pro MD101HN/A

    Hi guys,
    I'm from India and was about to buy my first Macbook. The model which I'm buying is MacBook Pro MD101HN/A. I just wanted to know if this is the latest model for non-retina 13" Macbook Pro or are there any other models (besides the Core i7 one).
    I know that Apple will rewamp the Macbook Pro series at WWDC conference on 10th June, but I guess the new model will still be very costly (while I'm getting a good discount currently on MD101HN/A model). The main reason actually that I'm buying it is because of the discount.
    I'm a college grad. and will mostly use this mac for projects/assignments and web browing mostly. I rarely use photoshop or other such softwares. So will the 2.5Ghz Core i5 processor suffice my need?

    There is no guarantee Apple will revamp anything at the WWDC.
    Yes, the 2.5Ghz will certainly meet your needs.

  • Newbie questions about Macbook Pros at work...

    Hello all!  Our new CTO has decided he wanted a MacBook Pro in our predominant Windows desktop environment.  While we do have several Macs in use, primarily in our development departments, I believe this is a sign of the times and I expect more Macs to come through the doors as time passes.  It is for this reason as an IT admin that I'm trying to begin standardizing what I can on the Macs.  Our Windows desktop is tightly locked down where users do not have admin rights on their systems and all systems are centrally managed through our desktop management solution.  About 15 years ago, I supported Macs in the workplace, but boy have times changed!  I'm struggling to figure out how Macs should work in our environment.  Is it possible to have corporate-owned Macs that are locked down and centrally managed?  Should I be considering the Apple Deployment and Device Enrollment Programs as a starting point?  My primary goal is to not have users using their personal Apple IDs on the devices.  Is this possible and is this the right way to go for business applications?  Thank you for any information you can give to me.  This will be an ongoing learning curve for me.  If there are some good training sites out there, I'd appreciate your opinions there too!

    Is it possible to have corporate-owned Macs that are locked down and centrally managed?
    Yes. Your research should be directed toward OS X Server, Open Directory, Profile Manager, and the Volume Purchasing Program.

  • I have a question about Macbook Pro system preferences...

    When I first got my Macbook Pro, I thought it was cool to have my computer "talk" to me when I had notifications. For example, when I have an update available, it will say, "Stephen, updates are available." Or when my battery is low, it will say, "Stephen, you are now running on reserve battery power." I cannot figure out how to turn this feature off. Can anyone help me out?

  • Few Questions about macbook pros

    Is the transition from windows to mac easy or does it take awhile?
    Did you previous windows users get used to the minimizing of windows,I find it alittle weird?
    Another question,Why do people ask if they should get a macbook or macbook pro if price and screen size isn't an issue?Is there some sort of difference?
    What is Rosetta?
    How many windows can you have minimized?
    Are the widgets I see on apple's site the only ones that are out or are there more?
    I do alot of downloading,will macbook be perfect for this?
    When people say mac doesn't have viruses,does that mean because not many people use mac or because it has a well built OS?
    Is there spyware for macs?

    Is the transition from windows to mac easy or does it
    take awhile?
    It depends how long you have been using windows....
    How many windows can you have minimized?
    Lots, and then some
    Are the widgets I see on apple's site the only ones
    that are out or are there more?
    there are more out there but I am sure most are listed on Apple's site
    I do alot of downloading,will macbook be perfect for
    this?
    It depends what you mean by downloading. If you mean you download a lot of software/music/movies etc illegally using PTP, MIRC, Torrents etc, then I would say no: it is generally more straight forward on Windows, so I've heard.
    When people say mac doesn't have viruses,does that
    mean because not many people use mac or because it
    has a well built OS?
    possibly a bit of both but I reckon it's mainly because people don't bother making viruses for macs (yet....)

  • Quick questions about Macbook Pro specs...

    I am looking at the different Macbooks that Apple offers in order to decide which one to purchase. The two main differences that i noticed are as follows. Can someone please help me answer these two questions?
    1. What is the difference between a Hard Drive on the Macbook Pro and Flash Storage on the Macbook Pro with Retina?
    2. Does the Macbook Pro with Retina not have a build in CD drive? Is that why it states that I would have to purchase a Superdrive seperately?

    1. Flash storage is a solid state drive, which is a lot faster than a hard drive. Meaning, boot times are faster and opening applications are faster with teh flash storage. Transferring data is also faster, so installations go faster.
    2. The retina's don't have an optical drive (DVD/CD drive), so if you needed one you would have to buy an external drive. However, you don't have to purchase Apple's expensive superdrive, you could purchase a 3rd party drive for much cheaper.

  • Questions about MacBook pro as a civil engineering student.

    Into my final year of Civil Engineering. I will be using softwares like AUTOCAD, PRIMAVERA, etc.. Ive decided to go for a 15" model. I'm confused to go for with or without retina display. With retina offers low storage and 512GB SSD is out of my budget. which one will be the best for me? MacBook Pro normal or MacBook Pro with retina display 256GB flash storage.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    To be fair, the MacBook Pro with Retina display is for people who needs extreme portability, and I don't recommend it to anyone. All its parts are soldered, and you can't modify anything without voiding the warranty, and repairs are more expensive than with any other portable Mac. Also, battery replacements are more expensive, and it's a Mac with less lifetime because of this.
    Go for the non-Retina MacBook Pro, which contains similar hardware but without HDMI port (you have to use a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter), without SSD (but a 750 GB HDD) and it's customizable (you can add RAM and modify the hard drive without voiding the warranty). Also, repairs are cheaper, and you will only note the difference with a MacBook Pro with Retina display in read and write tasks

  • Questions about macbook pro's fan speed

    i'm using a macbook pro early 2008
    and i use istatpro to monitor cpu gpu temp
    1. do the fans work with a min rpm around 2000 all the time?
    2. when i open quite a few apps, mbp get hot, and the gpu temp rises up to 80c degree also cpu temp rises to 60or70c degree. but the fan rpm is still around 2800.
    some guys using macbook/pro confirm that with temp around 80c, their fan has a rpm around 3000or4000.
    does someone else here have this situation above.
    is it normal?
    thanks a lot

    Welcome!
    1) Yes, the default fan speed is 2000 rpm. At that speed they are nearly silent. The speed will increase with temperature. Max revs possible are 6000 rpm.
    2) Notebook computers get hot, regardless of make. The temps you see are reasonable for graphic-intensive applications. The MBP will automatically shut down if the temps get too high; I believe the cutoff point is just over 100°C.
    There are third-party programs that allow you to customize fan settings but they must be used with care. It's possible to overwork the fans by manually setting their speeds too high.
    The best approach is to insure that the MBP gets to use all its built-in cooling capacity. Using the computer on a pillow or blanket is bad; the case bottom dissipates heat but only if air can get under it. Use a lapboard if you must use the computer in your lap.
    Exhaust air emits from the hinge area in the back of the case. make sure nothing blocks the case there or you'll get overheating.
