  • How often does Apple release a new MacBook Pro?

    I am planning on buying a MacBook Pro (unsure of the specific model right now) and I am wondering when Apple will release a new model so I can either buy the latest or buy an older one for a cheaper price. It's like getting a new phone- you buy an iPhone 5 with a 2-yr contract then the iPhone 5s and 5c come out. When I get an estimate as to when a new Macbook Pro will come out, I'll determine if I'll wait or not. This is a big decision, so I need the most accurate answer. Thanks for any help

    Sorry, no one here can provide an answer.

  • Apple Bluetooth Keyboard + new MacBook Pro incompatible on wake from sleep

    Hello all
    I've seen a few discussions on the web re this issue, but no resolutions.
    I've been using a 4 year-old (white) Apple Bluetooth Keyboard for some time with my Intel Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro and never had an issue with it. Just upgraded to a new Core i5 Unibody MacBook Pro and I'm having problems.
    Everything's fine on startup but as soon as my MBP goes to sleep and I wake it back up, I get repeating keystrokes (even though I'm not touching any keys) and the keyboard is unusable until I physically turn it off and then on again.
    Just to preempt the responses I've seen to this issue elsewhere: (1) the keyboard's batteries are good, (2) the keyboard still operates perfectly if I associate it with the old MBP, but as soon as I associate it back to the new one the issues are still there, (3) there is nothing causing radio interference around my desk (and as I said it works fine with the older mac).
    Does anyone know of any bluetooth issues on new MacBook Pros that could cause this?.
    Many thanks in advance to anyone who can help with this issue.
    Darren

    It's not a solution more an observation, but the newer bluetooth (aluminium) keyboards and magic trackpads do not exhibit this behaviour (so it looks like it's specific to that older keyboard for some reason)

  • Advice to convert old iMac's Apple Works to newer MacBook Pro's Word?

    Using a jump drive, I took my Apple Works documents from System 9 but they will NOT open in MS Word-for-Mac on my MacBook Pro's system 10.4.11. ANY TIPS FOR CONVERTING ? I don't want to lose these files, but I do want to lose the old iMac - it's grape!

    strandra, welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Did you add the AppleWorks file extension ".cwk" to the file names i.e., document.cwk)?
    A possible alternative - Using AppleWorks, can you save the files in some other format, such as .doc or .rtf?
     Cheers, Tom

  • Return My New MacBook Pro Ahead of WWDC?

    I bought my new:
    MacBook Pro
    Retina, 13-inch, Late 2012
    Processor  2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
    Memory  8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    on Wednesday, May 29 (10 days ago). I just found out that the exact model of computer I own is in short supply, and almost everyone speculates that it's because Apple will announce the release of a newer version of the same thing:
    http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-205_162-57588097/apple-wwdc-2013-rumors-include-new- ipad-iradio-ios-7-macbook-pro/
    I don't want to get stuck with this older one, when just weeks later a newer version is released. Does it make sense to wait until the rumors are confirmed, or just ditch this one right now, by returning it?  I bought it in-store. Would this update be announced during the keynote address, and how responsive are the stores after a new product is released?  Is there a lag time between keynote addresses, and the actual inventory of new product in the store? 
    I'm definitely going to get the new one -- I just need advice on the most efficient and easiest way to proceed through this.
    Thanks

    We don't know if Apple will release a new MacBook Pro during WWDC. You have 14 days to return your Mac, so wait until Monday and if Apple releases a new MacBook Pro, return the one you are using and buy the new one. You can do it without any problem

  • Trouble moving iPhone to new MacBook Pro

    Hi everyone,
    I have recently bought my first Apple computer - a new MacBook Pro. I moved my iPhone from my old PC by copying the 'itunes' folder from it onto the new MacBook Pro (and de-authorising old PC).
    But I am having a few problems - most importantly, my iPhone isn't installing updates to apps properly. What happens is I hit 'install' and it begins to install. But then it doesn't complete the install. It says something about not having the app on the phone. So I have turned it off and on again and found that the app will then appear on the screen but not in the folder it used to be in - not sure whether it has updated or not...
    Sorry if that's not very clear. Would be very grateful for any help or advice...
    Thanks,
    Nick

    You can Download it from- Download CS4 products and than you can install it on your Mac.

  • HT3224 I am new to Mac and started transferring data from my PC to my new Macbook Pro.  Connection was lost once I started and now my Pro is stuck on the 'Transferring Information' screen.  How do I get out of this screen to attempt the connection again?

    II am new to Mac and was trying to transfer data from my PC to my new Macbook Pro.  The connection was lost however and now my Pro is stuck on the 'Transferring you nformation' screen.  How do I get out of this screen so I can attempt the connection again?  Is it safe to force shut down of my Mac and will it still prompt me through all the setup process again?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If your Mac and PC are connected by Ethernet, unplug and plug that cable again. If not, you have to turn off the MacBook by holding the Power button.
    In the next startup, try to transfer your files again. It's important not to interrupt the transfer process, because in most cases, you will stop it and you won't be able to resume it

  • Apple password not recognized on new macbook pro

    I just bought a new macbook pro and used my time machine disk. All went fine until a message appeared that a device was incorrectly ejected. I clicked the message away and the transfer seemed to continue althpugh it suddenly needed twice the time as before the message. At a certain stage it asked for my apple password (as used o  my old machine which i was tranferring to the new one) but Now it doesnt accept my apple password anymore so i  am stuck!! I am sure the password is correct.  This thing is extra cruel as i had to buy the new one abroad after i was robbed at the airport. Luckily i always travel with my harddisk with backups from time machine but despit this i cant use my new macbook pro because of the above trouble. Anybody any suggestion? Please help!

    I really wish that was true. I am using the same password for about 10 years already (not smart i know bur at least i always am sure that it is correct). A thought i had was that caps lock or something similar was activated. Caps lock is easy to check but maybe somebody knows if ther are other settings that accidentily might have been active? And how those can be undone?

  • I have a new macbook pro and want to purchase adobe photoshop.   How can I do that with apple retina display compatibility?

    I have a new macbook pro and want to purchase adobe photoshop.   How can I do that with apple retina display compatibility?  Does anyone use photoshop on your mac?

    Adobe is moving from the purchase of a license for their software to the renting of it. I'm old school so I'd prefer a perpetual license. But you already have a subscription to Illustrator so I guess it'd be advisable to look into whether expanding the subscription to include other software will save you some money. Also I remember something about Adobe adding features to its Cloud version which aren't also added to the licensed version and a different way of handling updates and upgrades. Indeed, Adobe states that CS 6 has reached the end of the road. So if you're going to stay with Adobe, you may very well be stuck.
    I'd suggest spending some time in the Adobe Communities. You'll likely find people complaining about choices they've made that you'll have to make too. Let them be the beta testers.

  • Hi guys, I recently got a new MacBook Pro with a USB Superdrive. A disc won't eject, does anyone know of a way to eject it? I'm in Morocco for the next 10 days so going to an Apple store is not possible. Any help would be gratefully received, thanks

    Five ways to eject a stuck CD or DVD from the optical drive
    Ejecting the stuck disc can usually be done in one of the following ways:
      1. Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
          left mouse button until the disc ejects.
      2. Press the Eject button on your keyboard.
      3. Click on the Eject button in the menubar.
      4. Press COMMAND-E.
      5. If none of the above work try this: Open the Terminal application in
          your Utilities folder. At the prompt enter or paste the following:
            /usr/bin/drutil eject
    If this fails then try this:
    Boot the computer into Single-user Mode. At the prompt enter the same command as used above. To restart the computer enter "reboot" at the prompt without quotes.
