Are the new thunderbolt mbps suffering from external screen flickering?

Hi i have the early 2011 thunderbolt macbook pro and i cant use my external monitor (non apple) because it flickers. I saw today that they upgraded the mbp line. Do you know if the problem is still there?

Yes, take your machine back to Apple for evaluation, exchange or refund.

    After restoring my iphone 4 to factory settings, then restoring from a recent backup, my phone will reboot but keeps coming back to the "new setup or restore from backup screen". How can I by-pass this screen to go directly to the sync apps/music screen?

    Well, it's certainly behaving as though the phone that was backed up was synced to a different iTunes library.
    I'm going to throw one more thing out there... Yes, you backed it up to this computer... Was the phone previously set up to sync with this computer? Or was it syncing with a different computer and you just backed it up to this one?
    You may have to end up setting it up as a new device and rebuilding the phone by manually re-syncing your data, apps, music, etc. to the phone.
    Trying to keep your library on a different drive can be tricky. If iTunes starts up and the library isn't available, it may end up generating a new library ID, meaning that you could easily find yourself in exactly the position you're in now...
    I'm curious why there was a need to restore your phone to begin with... It may not have any bearing on this at all, but it could.

  • When are the new thunderbolt mac pros coming out

    We've been waiting for over a year for the new mac pros with new processors & thunderbolt.  When will they be released??

  • Mystery: what are the new circles on my ipad air screen?

    Since I updated to IOS 8 on my Ipad Air this morning , I now have two little circles at the top of my Ipad screen ... one has my name ... and the other has a name I dont recognize. Why are they there all of a sudden, and how can I make them go away?
    Many thanks.

    When do you see them ? If when you have the taskbar open then you can turn them off via Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Show In App Switcher (under the 'Contacts' heading) > Recents 'off'

  • What are the actual dimensions of the new Thunderbolt Display without the stand (e.g., when using a VESA mount)?

    I need to use the new Thunderbolt Display without the stand on a VESA mount, but before I order it I need to make sure it will fit height-wise in the allotted space.

    The ThunderBolt display specs page has the same sizes listed as the 27" LED Cinema Display specs page (web archive).  I just measured my Cinema Display for you and the height of the display itself without the stand is 15 5/8".  However, you will need some additional space at the bottom for air flow intake.  These displays get hot and need proper ventilation so do not block the vents on the bottom.  Also the bottom vents are where the speakers are.
    Hope this helps.

  • My MBP suffers from DAILY "kernel panic" attacks.  This has happened ever since I downloaded Lion.  It appears to happen much more often than the Apple support page suggests it does.  Once the MBP re-boots, it works fine, zips along in all programs.

    My MBP suffers from "kernel panic" attacks on an almost daily basis.  This has occured ever since I downloaded Lion.  The Apple support page suggests that this is a rare occurance, but it happens to me almost every day.  Most often, if I let the computer go to sleep or close the lid, I'll find that it won't "wake up" without a complete re-boot.  It always sends a report to Apple and for a couple of days I thought the issue was resolved, but now it's happening again with increasing regularity.  I've reinstalled Lion once already... Any suggestions?

    We can't help without the KP. In the meantime, see
    What is a kernel panic,

  • Does the new Thunderbolt display have any advantages over the current 27" iMac

    Other than being 3kg lighter and including a sub (2.1 stereo system) rather than just stereo speakers, are there any advantages of the new Thunderbolt display over the current 27" iMac?
    We need a new desktop very soon, and will eventually upgrade to an Mac Pro (not until a post Lion version comes out with Thunderbolt built in).  We were contemplating a MacMini Server and a Thunderbolt display, but for only a little extra (weight and cash) we could get a more powerfull 27" iMac.  Are there any benefits of the Thunderbolt display that are not included in the top end 27" iMac?  I'm assuming it's just the same 27" LED backlit TFT LCD with IPS...
    In the end we would probably end up using the iMac or display as a display for a Mac Pro (we're photographers), so if there are significant benefits of the Thunderbolt Display, we'll just get it with the Mini as a stopgap.

    The only real advantage of the new 27" ACD is that you can easily move it from one unit to another (Mini to MBP to Pro, etc).  If you bought a 27" iMac you could always hook up another display to the iMac and run dual monitors fairly easily.
    The advantage of the Pro is that you can add a bigger video card, lots more RAM and up to 4 hard drives.  If you plan on buying a Pro as soon as it comes out, get the Mini, if not get the iMac (it will save you a bit of space over a ACD and a Mini).  I think the real question is, what do you think you are going to use more in the future.
    And yes, the 27" iMac and the 27" ACD use the same IPS screen.

  • Day 11 of 14, New too Verizon and the new Thunderbolt, do we keep it or send it back?

    I have had a number of surprises so far after coming to Verizon with the new Thunderbolt.. We ordered 2 bolts. The battery issue was disappointing, but a bigger battery will fix it, and/or a daily charge seems to take care of it. 
    I live in the country on fridge of the city, my wife came from provider Sprint, and I came from AT&T.  We never had problems with our prior carriers, but must be out of range for the Verizon tower due to the bad signal and sound quality when making calls from the house.  Verizon suggested a network extender, so we had them send us one.  It did fix the signal and the noise problems at home.  Plus can take with us on the road,, guess this problem is fixed too.
    My wife's Bolt had static and noise in any area, 3G or 4G.  Mine has been great.  I called Verizon they said to take it to a Verizon store for an exchange.  I bought the phone online with Verizon, but the brick and mortar stores said they could not do it, I complained and did get them to change out the wife's Bolt.  The replacement serial and mac address was several thousand letters and numbers higher, so expect her phone was built early, but the new replacement is quiet, no noise problem solved.
    The 4G is very fast, speetest.net I was surprised how fast it is.  I love the phone, but I worry with all the issues people keep finding, and I really have not seen any official Verizon communications on what is actual and what might be in progress to fix for good.  Forums are great, but does Verizon read these posts? 
    I am on day 11 of 14.  First timer to Verizon, Thunderbolts aside, do you like them as a wireless carrier?  Thunderbolt's, we like them very much, but I now wonder if maybe insurance is a good idea, seems like we may have many issues in the future too.  I was on the build team for the HP Glisten, we had many issues on our first phones too, but eventually got it fixed too, in fact the prototype I still had when I left AT&T to come to Verizon.  I think we are going to give the phones a couple more days of heavy workout, and then decide.

    So far so good, a few hiccups but Verizon has supported me so far on each issue.  Some responders from the support line where not as good as others, but I did find several who were more than helpful.  The forums here are helpful too, aggravation does make some of the posts bias against the phone, but there are some good posts out there and the solution found posts will help us all. 
    Everyone who owns a Thunderbolt just needs a little patience, it is a new and powerful device.  I'm sure HTC and Verizon are working out the confirmed bugs, and will roll out confirmed updates when they have gathered more data. When I was prototyping the obsidian, which we marketed as the glisten, we had many issues too, but in the end worked most of them out. 
    The thunderbolt should also follow same result as long as Verizon and HTC keep it in the front line, so far they are still marketing it, even with having the Iphone now in their portfolio. I viewed a wirefly.com smackdown between the Thunderbolt and the new Iphone, and to me, I do like the Thunderbolt best.  On to day 12, so far so good. 

  • How do I connect a new Thunderbolt MBP to and old 23" HD Cinema Display ADC port

    A question Im sure many have asked but I cant find a straight forward answer.
    I simply will be buying a new thunderbolt MBP 15 and NEED to connect it an old 23" Apple Cinema Display that uses the old ADC connector.
    Can I do it and if so how? I realise theres a potential under powering issue?
    Thanks

    Hello Sigh
    I am sure there is no way to get your ADC connector display to function with your new Mac Book Pro.
    I tried everying I could and gave up and purchased a 24" Apple refurbbished Cinema Display for $599 + tax on 4/27/2011. The Apple part number is FBXXXXL/A, Model A1287.
    Gave my  year 2002 ADC 22" display to a friend.

    Re: How do I connect a new Thunderbolt MBP to and old 23" HD Cinema Display ADC port Jul 8, 2011 4:58 PM (in response to Russy47)
    Got my new MBP 2011 today. Hooked it up to my 23" Apple Cinema Display fine, using the Apple DVI to ADC converter > Mini Display port adaptors. I could then mirror display, but only at 1440 x 900 resolution.
    My dream is to have it like my old laptop--I mostly leave it shut, and main display is on the Cinema Display. So far, if I close the laptop lid on my new MBP, display shuts off. Also, can't get it to bump up the resolution to 1920.
    Sigh.

    Hello,
    Versions 3.1.1 and 3.1.2 are actually patched version of APEX 3.1. As such, they don’t introduce new features, but mainly fix bugs from the main release. If you want to learn specific details about these versions, you should read the readme file attached to the patch set files (on metalink).
    It’s always best to work with the latest patched version, as it reduces your chances to encounter bugs. In general, so far the new APEX versions added many new features and technologies, while maintaining backward compatibility, so existing applications functionality is not impaired. Personally, I don’t see any reason not to upgrade and use the latest version, certainly when you are comparing 3.1 to 3.1.2.
    Regards,
    Arie.

    and
    Each release of Oracle has many differences, and Oracle 10g is a major re-write of the Oracle kernel from Oracle 9i. While there are several hundred new features and other differences between 9i and 10g, here are the major differences between Oracle9i and Oracle10g:
    Major changes to SQL optimizer internals
    Oracle Grid computing
    AWR and ASH tables incorporated into Oracle Performance Pack and Diagnostic Pack options
    Automated Session History (ASH) materializes the Oracle Wait Interface over time

    SQLTuning Advisor
    SQLAccess Advisor
    Rolling database upgrades (using Oracle10g RAC)
    dbms_scheduler package replaces dbms_job for scheduling
    and you need to refer oracle documentation for sql, plsql references where you will know particular enhancements made...
