Consultation on purchasing macbook pro retina

Hello, I would like to make a query. Turns out I bought a macbook pro retina via the web store, and asked with 16gb of ram, is a mc976, but as delay in delivery was told the person who bought it that there is a lack of stock 16gb memory, is that possible?
I await your response.
thank you very much

Since the RAM is soldered on the logic board with no possibility of replacement, I guess they ran out of 16GB-equipped boards back at the factory.

Purchasing Macbook Pro Retina with SuperDrive

Hello,
I'm looking foreword to purchase a Macbook Pro Retina, but I need to know that if I bought a SuperDrive with it, will they both arrive in one box combined or separated?
It's not a really big question but I really need to know.
Any one knows?
Thanks.

I just recently purchased Macbook Pro Retina, and I am wondering how I can migrate my stuff from my old MCP to the new one?

Migration has made my life so much easier two years ago when I replaced my iMAC.
Now I am replacing Macbook Pro to the new one with Retina display.
I used to use Firwire to migrate all my data to the new machine.
However in the new MBP, there is no more firewire, but USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt.
My old MBP has neither.
Is it still possible to migrate? What should I do?

Battery Life on MacBook Pro Retina 15" purchased 1 week ago

Hello Dear Community,
About a month ago I purchased a MacBook Pro Retina 15" and after 1 week I noticed the battery was lasting for about 2-3 hours of web-browsing. It turned out the battery was defective and Apple sent me a new one.
4 days ago I received the new laptop and I switched it on, did all the updates and installed Google Chrome.
Here is my problem (or maybe I'm just being a bit paranoid):
The battery was at 80% when I put on a movie. I was with standard out of the box settings, full brightness and volume at max. After the 2-hours movie battery was down do 21% which seemed a bit odd, but I thought it was expected with full brightness and volume.
After that I was web-browsing ordering a pizza, went on facebook and watched 4 movie trailers which all and all took about 25 minutes maybe, but this got the battery down do 10%.
Is this normal, because this is my first purchase of an apple product? Somehow losing 10% in 25 minutes seems a far cry from the promised 8 hours of web-browsing promised in the description.
Very much appreciate any help with this!
P.S: Apple Diagnostics found no issues.
Regards,
Incr3dulous

I have 1 question though: Isn't it harmful for the battery to keep the MBP connected to AC with the charger at full battery?
NO, NO NO!
I keep my MBP connected to the charger most of the time. Monthly I will use it with just the battery and connect the charger again when at the 40%± charge level. That will keep the battery happy.
P.S: How much do you usually get out of your MBP while browsing?
Which one? I have three of them. The 2010 is the most energy efficient and I would expect it to last perhaps 6+ hours with very moderate use. The 2006 has a smaller replaceable battery and I would expect 4.5 maximum at very moderate use.
Watch a video and the times will be cut in half.

I just purchased my Macbook Pro retina display OS X 10.7.4 in June 2012. Shortly after I began using it, it began randomly restarting itself while in use. Why and how do I fix this?

So as I said in the title, I purchased my new Macbook Pro retina display OS X 10.7.4 in June 2012 and recieved in early July. Shortly after I started using the laptop, it began randomly restarting itself. It does this about once a week while I am just using the laptop for normal internet browsing. I haven't downloaded any outside software that the system could be rejecting and it is fully charged. Any ideas on why this is happening or how to fix it?
Also this is a total random question, but there is a residue on my laptop that is faint but randomly shows up. I'm almost positive that it is nothing on my hands or where I place the laptop. I wasn't sure if it was something possibly coming from the side vents. Thanks for the help!

Exactly what Shootist007 states - take it in for service or replacement - could be a simple software issue or it could be a hardware issue...
Don't even bother messing with it.....Might screw up even more.....
Make sure your files are backed up in case they give you a replacement....
Good luck - hope you get it sorted out...

Call the online store and ask them! We are just users like yourself. Besides, you will get a much faster answer directly from the horses mouth and it will be correct!

Just brought home newly purchased MacBook Pro 15"/Maverick/Retinal Display. To my astonishment, there is NO DVD slot! No one in the store told me about this missing feature. Intolerable, How does one install software? Insert CDs to copy for iTunes?Do I have to purchase an external DVD drive? Is one even available? What a crock!

I’ve owned Macs since 1990 (IICX my first), mostly desktops. Having had DVD/CD drives in all my previous laptop Macs since 2001 - (2) G4 Powerbooks, A 17” Mac Book Pro - and also inspecting a friend’s year-old Mac Book Pro which had the DVD slot - unless someone told me at purchase, I had no reason to know that the Retina display version of the 15” had NO DVD drive. ANYHOW, I fully intended to buy the non-Retina display version, because it was cheaper. Unfortunately by the time I got to the Apple store they were no longer selling the non-Retina display version; all versions were ONLY with the Retina display. And the fine distinction of a DVD vs. a non-DVD drive was not pointed out. So now I have to shell out an additional $80 bucks for an external SuperDrive.

hienn,
Not yet. There was an upgrade page to 10.8.2 for the late 2012 models but it's down now. I have to assume that Apple pulled it because of some bugs. I would look for something next week, more likely than not. In the meantime, the OP should be good with 10.8.1 until the update shows up again.

Itunes on Macbook Pro retina only downloaded 1:30 of each song purchased.

Itunes on Macbook Pro retina only downloaded 1:30 of each song purchased. This is the case for over 2000 songs. The computer is authorized. How do get it it do download the full song?

Hey Justin-O,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If iTunes in the Cloud is available in your country, you can remove the music and re-download from your purchase history:

I recently purchased a MacBook Pro Retina Display. In addition, I picked up a USB Superdrive. It appears the Superdrive does not want to accept my discs and just ejects them. What am I doing wrong?

You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro forum. This is the forum for the white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

HT201364 just purchased new macbook pro retina and not able to download osx mavericks.is this problem common?

I have just purchased a new macbook pro retina and I am unable to download OSX Mavericks.I would be grateful of any help with this.

The available download is not able to boot your Mac because of the newer hardware in that Mac. When Apple releases an update that has the necessary drivers, you should be able to download it.
The versions provided in Recovery will be able to boot your Mac if you need to reinstall.

I have a macbook pro retina and just bought a macbook air. I want to share all my music between the two, both that which was purchased from iTunes and copied from my cd's.

I have a macbook pro retina and a macbook air which I just purchased, I want to share all of the music on the retina with the air.

The simplest way is to use an external USB drive. Copy the iTunes folder to the drive while it's connected to your MBP. When done eject the drive. Connect the drive to the MBA. Navigate in the Finder to the /Home/Music/ folder on the MBA. Copy the iTunes folder from the external drive into the /Home/Music/ folder.
OS X Mountain Lion- Drag and drop.
If you have a backup of your MBP, then you can use it to restore the /Home/Music/iTunes/ folder to the MBA.
