  • Difference between late-2012 and early-2013 mbp retina 13"?

    I just bought the early-2013 mbp retina from the refurbished section of the mac site.
    It seems to be v. difficult to get detailed info on this model. Most web queries about aspects of this model bring up info on the late-2012 model.
    Is this some sort of freak model that was a limited run?
    One of the main reasons I ask is that I have a 512gb SSD, and I'm looking to replace it with the 768gb SSD module. The SSD module I am looking to buy advertises itself as being compatible with the late-2012, but no mention of early-2013.
    The late-2012 and early-2013 share the same model number (A1425), should I assume they carry the same architecture under the hood?
    **Before you reply**
    - Yes, I know I'm not supposed to open the computer, might void the warranty etc.
    - No, I didn't have the option of the 768gb SSD when I bought it, it was already assembled. I got it cheap.
    - Yes, I am aware that SSD upgrade is an expensive option.
    - Yes, I am aware I can store additional data on an external HDD.
    - Yes, I am aware I can boot from a higher capacity external HDD.
    - No, I don't want to know about alternative options, just the one outlined in the original query.
    Thanks.

    didvid.s,
    the technical specifications for the two models are here and here. Contrast and compare them to your heart’s content.

  • Are there any differences between Server 2012 and Server 2012 R2 that might impact TFS or SQL server required for TFS?

    Hi,
    In the interest of just getting started and learning the basics of setting up TFS, I previously setup an IDE using a large workstation running Windows 8.  I set up the required servers for TFS using VM's through Hyper-V.  I am now transferring
    everything to a new and separate physical server.
    My question stems from a problem I had when I originally setup the TFS system the 1st time.  I couldn't get SQL server to work using the Server 2012 R2 download from the subscription center.  When I used Server 2012, it worked, so I proceeded that
    way just to get going.
    So now I'm setting things up anew on a new physical box, I want to ask up front, is there some difference in the R2 version that causes problems with either TFS or SQL server, or was there likely some oversight on my part when I did things the 1st time?
    As an addendum to my question, I always assumed R2 merely means the Server software has progressed to a refined state and is ready for wide distribution and easy setup.  I assumed that there are no differences between the Standard version and the R2
    version.  Is that understanding correct?
    Thanks.

    Hi Daniel,
    Thanks for your response.  That's a great link.  I don't recall seeing a page that is so clear and easy to read back when I was doing this the 1st time, but I probably just missed it.  That helps.
    I am/was using TFS2013 and VS2013.  As I recall, my problem was getting SQL Server to work, but I thought asking this question on this forum was wiser because I figured everyone using TFS would be well familiar with these issues.
    At any rate, it seems as though TFS2013 is fine with Server 2012 standard or R2.
    I was using SQL Server 2012, and it also seems as though it works on R2:

    Anyway, thanks for your support.  I'll be trying this again and we'll see.

  • Are there any difference between iPhone 4S and iPhone 5? What are they?

    What I already know is that iPhone 5 has a larger screen and is slimmer, but are there any difference between the two.  I have iPhone 4S now, should I buy iPhone 5?

    There are a number of major differences between iPhone 4S and iPhone 5, the major one being the processor speed.  iPhone 5 has a much faster processor – two times faster than the processor in iPhone 4S.  This difference is only significant if you use your phone to play high graphics games that require a lot of processing power.  This processing speed also makes the applications load and run faster – iPhone 5 even boots in a shorter time than iPhone 4S.  You can use iPhone 4S comfortably now but when games and graphic apps designed for iPhone 5 are released, you may be forced to upgrade your phone to run the smoothly.

  • Are there any differences between the iPad and iPhone chargers I.e. Volts, amps etc

    Someone I know said that although they are compatible, they charge the devices at different rates. Any truth in this?

    iPad charger is 2amps.
    iPhone is 1 amp.
    The iPhone charger will charge the iPad, but at a slower rate.

  • Are there technical differences between the asian and the european iPad2?

    Can I use a device bought in asia i.e. in germany?
    Thanks for your help.

    I'm not 100% sure, but looking at the Thai store page for the iPad it looks like they are GSM/sim based (http://store.apple.com/th/browse/home/shop_ipad/family/ipad/select?mco=MjE2MjYyN zA) :
    UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz)
    The US store (http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_ipad/family/ipad/select?mco=MjE0OTI0M DI) :
    Wi-Fi + 3G model: UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz)

  • Are there any differences between black and white?

    Hi, this is the question:
    Are there any differences between a black and a white macbook (2,0 Ghz) except the coulor? I am thinking about buying a macbook but i dont know really what to do
    Coul someone help me plz?

    This page explains the differences between the two white macbooks and the black mac book: http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wo/0.RSLID?mco=A 4791B5D&nclm=MacBook
    It should answer any questions you have about all three.
    The lowest price macbook has a less fast processor, and the same size hard drive as the middle priced macbook. The lowest priced one also does not have a DVD burner while the middle priced white one does and the black one.
    The black macbook has a bigger harddrive then the middle priced macbook and thats about all thats different between the middle priced white one and the black one.

  • Is there a difference between the "teacher" and "normal" versions of CC?

    Hi,
    Are there any differences in the feature set (ie - less filters, not as feature rich, etc, etc) of Adobe Creative Cloud education version (in this case, I'm a teacher), and the "normal", more expensive version of Adobe Creative Cloud (ie - what a normal individual would pay who doesn't qualify for the discounted education versions).
    Many thanks for the insight!

    Thanks Luis.
    The only difference is the subscriptiion price for students and teachers.
    The Creative Cloud FAQ here http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/faq.html covers a lot of common questions.

  • HT4279 I have a Macbook Pro (late 2012) and I would like to connect it to 2 screens simultaneously (1 screen is a TV and can only take HDMI, the other is a larger computer screen and has both VGA and HDMI connections). How can I do this?

    I have a Macbook Pro (late 2012) and I would like to connect it to 2 screens simultaneously (1 screen is a TV and can only take HDMI, the other is a larger computer screen and has both VGA and HDMI connections). How can I do this?

    The article you cited refers to The Mac Pro, a 50lb silver tower -- not a notebook computer.
    Everymac.com says:
    2nd Display Support:
    Dual/Mirroring*
    2nd Max. Resolution:
    2560x1600 (x2*)
    Details:
    *This model supports a simultaneous maximum resolution up to 2560x1600 on two external displays via Thunderbolt. Alternately, it can support a single display up to 2560x1600 via Thunderbolt and a single display up to 1920x1200 via HDMI. Although it can theoretically power all three external displays, as confirmed by a helpful reader, it runs too hot with three displays connected.
    Also see: How many external displays can the Retina Display MacBook Pro models support? What is the maximum supported resolution of each? Are adapters required?
    When using other than ThunderBolt displays, the ThunderBolt port is directly compatible with Mini DisplayPort, and can be forced into compatibility (with Single-Link DVI or HDMI up to 1920 wide) with a simple adapter.
    To adapt to wider displays, an ACTIVE Dual-Link adapter is needed, about US$100.

  • Are there any differences?

    Are there any differences? on Ipod Video bought in USA and Europe? or are they just the same?
    Ive heard that some people have problem with ipods in europe with the pal system when they bought it in USA.
    Regards Kim

    The only difference I would think there would be between iPods sold here or in Europe is the default option for video out display. So, if you buy your iPod in Europe, and you want to display something from your iPod on a TV in the US, you would just have to change and option. Here is an article that goes over that a bit:

  • AirDrop transfer between Mac mini (late 2012) and MacBook Pro (late 2008) works only one way.

    AirDrop transfer between Mac mini (late 2012) and MacBook Pro (late 2008) works only one way.  I see both machines on both airdrop windows. Firewalls on both machines are set exactly the same way, and with Network Browser set to allow.  Can send a file from Mac mini to MacBook, but not the other way.  Never get a window asking to accept on the Mac mini.
    Found no useful documentation on AirDrop anywhere in the whole support site.

    Maybe this will work. From an Apple support article.
    You can also use the Share button to send files to your neighbors via AirDrop. In a Finder window, select the item you want to share, and then click the Share button in the toolbar. For more information about the Share button, see this help topic:

  • I have bought a new imac late 2012 and I want to wipe clean my 2008 mac and install Mountain Lion on the old computer for my kids to have

    I have bought a new imac late 2012 and I want to wipe clean my 2008 mac and install Mountain Lion on the old computer for my kids to have.
    What do I need to do?

    Boot your Mac from the System Install DVD that came with it, and erase the HD using Disk Utility. Then, reinstall the OS from the disc. Give the disc to your kids since it must always accompany the Mac it came with.
    After the OS installation is complete and the Mac restarts to begin its new owner setup procedure, just shut down the Mac. Your kids can take it from there.
    If you purchased Lion or Mountain Lion from the App Store, you cannot transfer it. The Apple ID you used to purchase it is required to maintain and / or reinstall the OS. Unless you want to supply your own Apple ID to your children for their use, they must purchase their own copy of Mountain Lion using their own Apple ID.
    If they do not already have an Apple ID and you want them to have Mountain Lion, you will need to create one on their behalf. This does not change the above procedure - just give them the Apple ID and password you create in addition to the Mac and its discs.

  • Is there a difference between Lightroom CC  and  Lightroom 5.7?

    Is there a difference between Lightroom CC  and  Lightroom 5.7? If so, is the upgrade from Lightoom 5.7 to  Lightroom CC for free?

    Yes the two programs are different. Lightroom CC has a number of new features added to it. They include HDR and panorama creation, brushes for the graduated filter and the radial filter, face recognition, support for new cameras, just to mention a few. Lightroom CC is a free upgrade for those who have subscribed to the creative cloud plan. Lightroom 6 (the standalone version) is a paid upgrade. The price is $79.

  • Are there any differences to an iPod touch bought in the USA that in the UK, Are there any differences to an iPod touch bought in the USA that in the UK

    If i was to buy an iPod touch in the USA are there any differences to one bought in the UK?

    I'm not sure that's correct Illaass.
    Unless the volume restriction (on EU iPods) has recently also been introduced worldwide, then an iPod bought anywhere inside the EU (European Union) - which includes the UK, has the maximum volume limited, compared to an iPod bought outside the EU, such as the USA.
    Note that I'm not referring to the Volume Limit feature in the Settings/Music menu (which both a USA and UK iPod Touch have), but the absolute maximum possible output of the iPod.
    Our glorious leaders at "EU headquarters" decided some years ago to protect our delicate little ears from harm by capping the output of EU sold iPods and since then - well, you can guess the rest, it's boring.
    To some people, this difference is very important, so drhill may want to take this into consideration. The "limit" of an EU model cannot be over-ridden, although if buying one in the USA (as drhill indicates he/she may do), you can of course limit the volume to the lower EU level using the Settings/Music>Volume Limit feature.

  • Can't decide between the iphone or ipad as my first apple product. Is there a difference other than phone and size?

    Can't decide between the iphone or ipad as my first apple product. Is there a difference other than phone and size?

    A couple of differences:
    iPad native apps
    Interactive e-books with multi-touch and 3D support (in iBooks 2)
    Layouts (kind of merges with iPad apps, Music/Settings, etc. all look different)
    Wi-Fi only models, no contracts
    iPads are unlocked by default (3G models)
    As paul said, I would really wait for the next iteration of iPad. That's what I'm doing
