AMD Radeon HD 6750M and Mavericks!!! Please HELP!

after I performed a clean installation of Mavericks on my macbook pro, in about this mac it shows the graphic adapter as "Intel HD Graphics 3000" instead of " AMD Radeon HD 6750M", is there any solution to move back the AMD graphic adapter as the main graphic operator?

AMD Radeon HD 6750M and bug in Photoshop CS5

Lately I noticed that merging spot channels in Photoshop CS 5 changes the opacity of the images.
Adapting my settings in preferences > performance > GPU setting solves the problem if you enable the Open GL drawing and in advanced settings mode is set to basic. This was not set by default and so gave the problems mentioned above.
I hope that a future update of the video card driver can solve this problem.

AMD Radeon HD 6750M, Early 2011 MBP, 10.9.4 Problems

Hello,
Ever since 10.9.3 update I have a serious problem with my Early 2011 MBP with AMD Radeon HD 6750M card.
First my configuration:
MBP 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7 (Macbook Pro 8,2)
16 GB RAM
512 GB Sandisk SSD and 750 Stock HDD
AMD Radeon HD 6750M and Intel HD Graphics 3000
OS X 10.9.4
I'm usually using my MBP with external display with a resolution of 1920x1080. The display is connected via DVI to Mini Display Port adapter. When I connect the external display, my MBP switches to the AMD card. Here's where the problems begin. If I'm using Davinci Resolve, Capture One Pro or any other software (that I use regularly) that uses the GPU extensively, the cpu usage will rise, the computer will start to feel sluggish and my productivity almost becomes none because even the simplest tasks such as opening another tab in firefox or safari takes anywhere between 1-3 sec. When the computer starts doing that, I cannot play a simple HD video at native fps and the whole machine basically becomes too expensive paper weight. The strange thing is that even after I quit all programs, the system cpu usage continues to be high, around 50% with kernel_task being the star using all this cpu and it keeps using all of this cpu forever, at least until i shut it down or disconnect the external display and manage to make it switch to the internal Intel gpu.
The problem started after istalling the 10.9.3 update and it's still there with the 10.9.4 update. I even formatted the computer and reinstalled everything but the problem still persists.
I haven't experienced anything like this on 10.9.2 and the machine was actually quite fast before that. Now, I have too expensive paper weight on my desk.
Since the problem is very specific, I doubt many users will complain and I doubt Apple will ever do anything to fix it, at least until hopefully the new drivers in 10.10 fix the issue hopefully.
My question is:
1. Has anyone else experienced this and managed to solve the problem?
2. How can I downgrade to 10.9.2? I don't have time machine backup but i have bootable usb with 10.9.2. Will it help?
All best,
Goran

AMD Radeon HD 6750M performance Issues

Hey all, since the update to CC I have had significant decrease in performance with all types of footage using Premiere Pro CC. Before the update I could cut R3D footage no problem in large sequences, now playback is even difficult, as well as other types of footage. Is there any known issues with these cards since the update? I am on a mac, 16gb of ram and have the
AMD Radeon HD 6750M. Appreciate any help in regaining that performance, as cutting this way is frustrating and time consuming.

I don't know of any significant changes that would affect playback. Have you tried the normal troubleshooting steps, such as, trashing preferences, deleting media preview cache files, cleaning the media database cache, repairing permissions, etc.? Tell me, is your 6750M the one with 512 MB VRAM or 1 GB VRAM?
Thanks,

Open CL errors with AMD Radeon HD 6750M, on Premiere Pro CC 7.0 and 7.0.1

I am on a Macbook Pro early-2011 with a 1Gb AMD Radeon HD 6750M - I noticed this in Console, repeating constantly while loading Premiere as well as all throughout my edit session and export:
MacBook-Pro.local Adobe Premiere Pro CC[770]: [CL_INVALID_OPERATION] : OpenCL Error : Failed to retrieve device information! Invalid enumerated value!
Meanwhile in project settings my Video Rendering and Playback settings is happily set to Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (Open CL) - not greyed out like in CS6. Someone else mentioned having the same open CL errors but said it only occured when they updated to 7.0.1 - however, I have seen the exact open cl errors on both 7.0 and 7.0.1 (every string is identical except the "[770]" which can have other values like [270] or [1060] etc. I have graphics switching off and my AMD Radeon HD 6750M shows up fine in system profiler. I am worried there might be something wrong with it, but other than in Premiere CC, I am having no problems.
Can anyone shed some light on this? Is it a bug? Is there any other info I can provide that would help clarify anything?
I've spent way too many hours and late nights trying to troubleshoot but couldn't come up with anything, so any help would be more than appreciated!
Thanks,
Ronny

Anybody from Adobe have any insight? Are you aware of this? I hope this is being looked into soon because I have a wave of TEDx HD videos to edit coming up in less than a week and just need some reassurance. Should I be worried?
Maybe the problem is with Apple's Console not logging it correctly, since my Mercury (CPU) option is not grayed out and still selected.

Bluetooth shuttted down after I updated to Mavericks, please help me !
I am 70 Years old and worked very happy with my iMac (21,5“ mid 2010, 3,2 GHz Intel Core 3)
until I updated him from SnowLeopard 10.6.8 to Mavericks 10.9.2.
2 Days all was OK. Next Morning-Start he needs (until now) 3 minutes to show me a SCREEN only milky white. After that he starts like ever with all ICONS in about 1 minute. (together 4 min.)
..But I must notice, that I cannot make anything, because the „BLUETOOTH APPLE WIRELESS KEYBOARD and the APPLE MAGIC MOUSE“ doesn't work anything like before.
I could nothing do, I must drop my APPLE only out.
That I maked ever 10x and all was the same... (Maveriks also 4x new updated)
I taked my Logitech-Bluetooth-Mouse from the WIN-Laptop, dropped it in USB from iMAC...and in one second I could work only with this MOUSE...I buyd the Logitech COMBO K520 and all was OK now with my lovely APPLE iMAC to work with him...But without APPLE KEYBOARD and MAGIC MOUSE...and with a 4 min. -START until now.
I asked the EXPERTS from APPLE-SUPPORT under Tel. 0800-6645451 in Germany, became a Number, maked many Things by starting new, but the mistake after all is the same like before.
When I look into ...Apple/ Info/System/ Hardware/ Bluetooth ..my APPLE says: NO INFOs FOUND (Es wurden keine Informationen gefunden.)
Under Hardware/ Diagnose : Selbsttest beim Einschalten: zuletzt ausgeführt: 15.05. 14, Ergebnis: Bestanden (that means OK) !!
I asked many Peaple, who sold APPLE-Computers in the STORS, but they all had no IDEA, how they can help.
I think, it could be a DRIVER when Starting the BIOS, JAVA RUNTIME a.s.o...
Is an Expert under YOU to help me by my Problem with this iMAC ?

dietmarfromdeu,
if you start up your iMac in Safe mode, do you still have Bluetooth problems with your Apple wireless keyboard and Magic Mouse?

AMD Radeon HD 6750M on my MacBookPro8,3 (early 2011)

Hi, the drivers are showing out of date for the AMD Radeon HD 6750M Graphics adapter in my MacBookPro8,3 (early 2011).
When running the new and impressive looking EA Battlefied 3 in Bootcamp, it repeatedly reports each and everytime when it is first run that my Graphics adapter/card/GPU etc drivers are currently very old at 11.1 where'as version 11.9 is currently available. Searching on the internet reveals that versions 11.10 are in existence and there's even occassional reference to 11.11 on some sites.
The Battlefield 3 game does surprising still run and the graphics (when not moving) are something to behold on the beauty of a Mac, however it does unfortunately lag with the frame rate suffering. Its not so much of a case with having to tweak/adjust the graphics options as there isnt much difference from low to high, nor low res to full 1920x1200 res. However it is mentioned on some websites that the driver versions around 11.9 (11.8 to 11.10 I think) apparently address issues and improve frame-rate with Battlefield 3 and other Apps/Games.
Will Apple be likely to help many of us by releasing a Graphics driver update very soon for the AMD Radeon HD 6750M - for Bootcamp Win 7 x64 as well as OS X Lion?
Or is it even possible to install and incorporate the latest AMD Catalyst 11.10 driver software for my MacBookPro8,3 under Bootcamp?
Or are many of us regrettably stuck! (until Apple release an update of coarse)

Post copied from previous discussion thread https://discussions.apple.com/message/17117482#17117482
This may be an old post, but for those still looking for an answer you can get the 13.12 (December 2013) AMD graphics driver from https://www.dropbox.com/sh/915fpdtgbgoksct/kOY7bKHgKq Select "Download->Download as .zip".
I only modded the driver for the windows 7 64-bit install, so if you using windows 8 under bootcamp you'll have to follow the included instructions yourself.
Please let me know/like this post if this works for you. (It would be great if you could report whether it worked based on using Win 7 or Win 8)

AMD Radeon HD 6750M + 2007 Cinema Display = compatible?

Hello,
I'm trying to figure out if the AMD Radeon HD 6750M 512 MB graphics card in my MBP will work with an old Apple Cinema Display 20-inch DVI Early 2007 (a1081). I know I need a mini display port to DVI converter to get it connected, but not sure if the graphics card is compatible. Does anyone know?
Any help is mucho appreciated, thanks!

Yes, it will work. I have the same model with the same GPU and I use my machine with an Apple Thunderbolt Display. Note that the 512MB card is the bare minimum for some Photoshop features (3D rendering).
I wish that I had purchased a 1GB card, but the 512MB card will push the monitor just fine.

AMD Radeon HD 6750M new updates for Battlefield 3

Hello,
I have a AMD Radeon HD 6750M, 1024 MB video card in a i7, 2.2 Ghz Macbook Pro.
Battlefield 3 is coming up and I want it to install it on my bootcamp. I read the AMD Radeon HD 6750M needs the new update. It is not possible to download and install this? Is there a way that mac provides these update with the software update tool in bootcamp so that the new AMD Radeon HD 6750M update can be installed?
regards,
Output31

Thank you "bios" on the link you've shared
I just wanted to say that "I installed Need for speed the run, and it was asking for a newer driver than the installed 11.1 (the one from apple bootcamp support), and I used the linked file you've mentioned and wala need for speed works like charm. However, when I play the game for about 20 minutes I can see the Magsafe green light turns orange i.e.. the MacBook Pro is not satisfied by the 85 Watt comming from the Magsafe and it is taking some additional power from battery to cover the power graphics consumption.
So, either the driver linked is not the final release, and AMD or Apple should update it with an optimized one OR the 85 Watt Magsafe is not the perfect match for a 15" MBP.
Thanks again

AMD Radeon HD 6750M - Color Profile?

Hi.
When my graphic mode switches from Intel HD Graphics 3000 to AMD Radeon HD 6750M, the OSX color looks very strange.
It has kind of a blue fog. Looks like a completely miss configured color profile. But I already tried to adjust that without success.
If I start a game, the color looks fine within the game.
OSX 10.8.1
All software updates are installed.
This only happens after I reinstalled OSX on my new SSD drive.
Any idea what the problem could be?
Thanks
Dan

my itunes will not open at all. it occasionally will open but when i plug my iphone into it the program freezes and crashes. please help as soon as possible

i think i might have a solution... i have windows vista and after i installed to latest itunes update everytime i tried to open it it would freeze. I tried everything, including uninstalling itunes and all of its components and reinstalled it numerous times. So i went to the itunes folder in my folders, not on itunes, and i deleted my itunes library and playlists. After that it worked just fine, all of my music was deleted but luckily i had my files saved elsewhere.
I hope this helped! I know its frustrating and APPLE/ITUNES NEED TO FIX THE PROBLEM!!!!

Hey erinoneill24,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Sounds like you can't update your device. You don't mention an error that it gives you. Take a look at both of these articles to troubleshoot.
iPod displays "Use iTunes to restore" message
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1441?viewlocale=it_it
If you can't update or restore your iOS device
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808?viewlocale=de_DE_1
If you started your device in recovery mode by mistake, restart it to exit recovery mode. Or you can just wait—after 15 minutes the device will exit recovery mode by itself.
Have a nice day,
Mario
