Can you use the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display straight out of the box, or do you have to charge it first?

Can you use the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display straight out of the box, or do you have to charge it up fully before you can use it. I do not want to damage the laptop by misusing the battery.

Attach the charger and start charging the battery to 100%.  The good news is that after you have connected the charger, you may start using the MBP as well.
Ciao.

  • HT5313 Since upgrading to 10.7.5, I can't use headphones on my Macbook Pro (with retina display) when connected to a Thunderbolt Display.  Anybody else?  Any solutions?

    When I connect my headphones to my Macbook Pro, the sound continues to come through the Thunderbolt display instead of the headphones.  Any help would be appreciated.

    To prevent your iPhone from automatically syncing when you plug it in, click on iTunes in the menu bar, then preferences, then "devices", then tick "prevent iPhones, iPad's and iPod's from syncing automatically".
    Plug it in, then on the iPhone sync summary screen, click "info" along the top.
    Make sure the "sync contacts" option is not ticked. as long as it's not ticked, then it won't sync with your mac's contacts but will still include them in backups.
    Also, if you use iCloud, make sure that the iPhone/mac are either not signed into the same account, or that "contacts" is not turned on for both of them

  • 15 inch Macbook pro w/o retina display or 13 inch Macbook pro with retina display?

    Want to get a macbook for university. Going to be used primarily for work and casual use. Have a 32inch full hd tv to connect up to for watching movies etc, which is the better choice?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    I recommend a non-Retina MacBook Pro unless you need the Retina display. MacBooks Pro with Retina display are very limited and you can't replace anything if you don't want to void warranty. Also, repairs are more expensive, so purchase AppleCare for your MacBook Pro with Retina display.
    Go for the 15-inch MacBook Pro if you need good GPU performance. The 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display has got an Intel HD Graphics 4000 as the graphic card, and it's not supported in Adobe apps, for example. Also, apps that require GPU performance won't work properly.
    If you are not going to do any heavy task, the 13-inch MacBook Pro should work

    Apple does make these, but they are not sold everywhere.  Where are you located? 
    Nobody in these forums represents Apple or any store, so to find out whether you can buy a particular product you will need to contact stores directly yourself.  In the US you can sometimes get unusual keyboards by talking to an apple retail store and asking for a special order.

  • Possible to install a new SSD to a 13-inch macbook pro with retina display

    I just bought a 13-inch macbook pro with retina display last week from apple. I want to make this macbook a protable workstation, so I upgraded the RAM to 16G. I also purchased an Samsung 1T SSD 840 EVO, which is suggested from most of the web, but when I took my laptop apart, the macbook is using a different SSD call PICe SSD, which is much smaller than a normal SSD.
    Not sure if anyone has encountered the same issue? Is it possible to upgraded the SSD in this case or have to stuck with it?
    Thanks

    stevenwang480,
    your 840 EVO can’t be installed in place of your PCIe SSD. In theory, you could upgrade your MacBook Pro’s PCIe SSD with another PCIe SSD, but the availability of third-party PCIe SSDs is nearly (if not actually) zero at this time. In the interim, you could put your 840 EVO into an external enclosure.

  • How do you fix colored lines on Macbook Pro with Retina Display?

         I have had my Macbook Pro 13" Retina display for over a year now, I recently opened it up and there were several green and blue lines running down the screen.  When I apply pressure to the bottom of the screen, where the black border is, some of the lines disappear.  It is progressively getting worse.  I don't believe it suffered any trauma.  It is a problem with the screen, not the GPU or anything else.  I was hoping there is a way to fix it without have to spend over $300 to get the screen replaced.  It is not under warranty.  Any advice?

    That's why Apple no longer sells disks. All its software is now available on the App Store. So you can either purchase/download the iWork components from there, or, if you have access to another Mac with an optical drive, share the DVD from that across the network (System Preferences - Sharing - turn CD/DVD sharing on) and install that way.

  • Will there be a 13 inch Macbook pro with Retina Display? I need a new laptop

    I will need to buy a new laptop for school and since they have a new model for the 15 inch laptop, I was wondering whether theywil update the 13 inch model as well.

    I lament it is against the TOS on this site to speculate on unannounced Apple products. Not only could it be a wonderful market litmus test for Apple to utilize (for free) but what better online board exists to let the company we pay a premium to be a part of know what we as the consumers would like to see next?

  • What is best non-apple display for 15 inch macbook pro with retina display?

    I am looking for a good and reasonably priced monitor to use with my MBP retina.  I prefer one that rotates 90 degrees for portrait viewing. Any suggestions?
    What adapter is needed to get good quality?  Is the dual link adapter worth $100?  Is it very much clearer than DVI?  How does the HDMI connection compare?  I've heard that HDMI only works as an external display in clamshell mode (computer closed).  Does HDMI transmit sound and video or would I need two cords?
    Thanks for any help!

    The dual-link adapter is needed only for resolutions over 1920 x 1200.  It won't improve the picture of lower resolution displays.
    HDMI carries audio and video (up tp 1920 x 1200).
    DVI (single or dual-link) is video only.
    Mini DisplayPort (or DisplayPort with an adapter cable) is audio and video (up to 2560 x 1600).
    All will give the same picture quality.

  • How can I see who made my Macbook Pro with Retina Display screen?

    Hello,
    I've read that the LG display burns into the screen. I've done the thing in Terminal "ioreg -lw0 | grep IODisplayEDID | sed "/[^<]*</s///" | xxd -p -r | strings -6" and all it says is Color LCD. Am I doing something wrong? Or does it not say?
    Thanks

    Hello again. Just to be clear, I want to know how to find out if Samsung or LG made my screen.
    Thanks again!!!
