Current MacBook Pro Build

Hello: Apple recently released a new MacBook Pro. What is the Build # of this current MacBook Pro ? I'm going to an Apple Store an I want to make sure I have the newest MacBook Pro (17") version. Thank-you, MLR

If it has a Thunderbolt port (with a lightning-bolt icon beside it) on its side, it's the latest.

HT1338 Does anyone know what the model # is of the current MacBook Pro 15in, 2.3 GHz , 4GB memory, 500 MG HD? Is it MD103LL/A? My MacBook Pro (3 yrs old) was stolen and my ins co found this model at Best Buy for $1799. Want to know if they're same, specs?

Yes, it is in the United States and Canada. In other countries, the LL will be something else.

Current 13 inch keyboard layout is it the same as the current MacBook Pro

Iv'e been looking at a refurb 13 inch Air and noticed the enter key is the same as the current MacBook pro. Is this the current layout or the old style
Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
I think you are referring to the Late 2008 Aluminum MacBook. It's an Unibody computer, and this MacBook has got a non-replaceable battery. You have to take the computer to an Apple Store or reseller to get your battery replaced.
The steps of the link you gave are for non-Unibody MacBooks Pro, that have got a replaceable battery. In this case, you have to buy the battery from the Apple Online Store

Can i install 16gb ram for my 17" macbook pro build 10k549 running 10.6.8?

can i install 16gb ram for my 17" macbook pro build 10k549 running 10.6.8?

What's the year and model number? If you go under Apple menu->About This Mac->More Info->System Report, you can find the model number - something like "MacBookPro8,3".

Thinking of changing my current Macbook Pro for recently released?

My current Macbook Pro is the 15" bought in 2008 just when the glossy screen computers came out. Its a good unit with 4 gigs RAM, 2.4 mhz processor etc.
However, I just bought an iMac 27" i5. Its very powerful and is now the centre of my computing universe. Oddly, since I got the iMac I use my portable as a portable more than ever. I was thinking though that really since the iMac is so powerful probably all I'd need is the 13.3" new Macbook Pro. It would be lighter and more portable but I'm not sure it would give me any performance enhancements over what I currently have.
I'm just curious what others thoughts are on the new 13.3" Macbook Pro. The only advantage I can with it over my current Macbook Pro is the graphics processor looks like its more powerful. The battery life is also amazing. On my current Macbook Pro I'm lucky to get 3 hours. This machine is rated at 10 hours.
Considering I've got a powerful iMac i5, does it make sense just to get the 13.3" Macbook Pro or spring for the 15.4. I don't think I need two powerful computers considering I use the iMac as the centre. Plus, I realize now that the apps I use all this power is wasted on.
I could probably sell my current Macbook Pro for $1000 as it has a tiny dent from a fall, buy the new Macbook Pro for $1200 plus and have something that is a little more portable with great battery life and I suspect maybe somewhat faster. My current computer is of course a matte screen and I don't think you can beat that but I think this combo I'm thinking of might be a better fit.
I just want people's thoughts views especially around also that the 13.3" Macbook Pro is a core duo 2 and I think this processor is pretty well near the end of its life. I saw Steve Jobs say though that the performance boost from the new Macbook Pro would have been minimal with an i5 but a lot with the new graphics cards.
Thoughts would be very much appreciated.

If your budget is unlimited, look at both the retina and non-retina and make a decision based on your preferences. If funds are tight, explore the options in the refurbished section. Unless you are dealing with courses that demand specific performance parameters, any one of these options will suffice.
Ciao.

What is the most current MacBook Pro model that has a Matte screen?

What is the most current MacBook Pro model that supports a native Matte screen?
I love Mac's but due to substantial eye strain with the glossy screens, I must use a Matte Screen laptop. Many thanks!

There are none in production at this time. I suspect it was the 15" 2012 model. I do know the 2011 15" and 17" MBPs had that option.
Ciao.

Early 2013 MacBook Pro vs Current MacBook Pro

I have an early-2013 15" Retina MacBook Pro (2.7GHz quad-core Intel Core i7, 16GB RAM, 768GB SSD). MacMall has a good deal on the current MacBook Pro (2.8GHz quad-core Intel Core i7, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD). The new one has updated processor (Haswell vs IvyBridge), larger hard drive and AC wifi vs N. Would I notice a difference at all or is it worth waiting for next-gen MacBook Pros. I assume they will come with the new trackpad and other enhancements that the just released 13" MacBook Pro has. New MacBook Pro is $2944 and can probably get about $1000 to $1,200 for the old one.

There will be a slight improvement in performance, but I could not state definitively that you would notice it other than in a benchmark. A faster clock and Haswell CPU is a slight improvement, but I wouldn't consider it major based on benchmarks I've seen published when Haswell's were first released. If you look for them on Google perhaps they can give you a more definitive answer to your question.
As it is you still have considerable life left in what you have, so you need to consider whether the change in performance is worth the added net expenditure of $1,900.00.

Flickering Screen on my Macbook Pro Build June 2012

Hi.
i have a macbook pro build june 2012, not a retina display.
i have also changed the Opitical Drive for another SSD so i have two SSD's in the macbook pro.
i have a video of the problem of which i can show if need be.
the problem is the bottom half of the screen flickers, it does not do it all the time but when it does it does it is for a long time! which is most annoying!
any solutions to fix this problem?
is it a loose connection? is it a graphics card issue? is it a motherboard issue?
anyone had any experience of this and what you did to fix it? and how much it cost?
thanks.

Your best option is a genius bar appointment. Have the video for the technician to view if the MBP is behaving normally for him.
This sounds like a hardware issue without a software solution.
Ciao.

Is there any way to transfer CS5 from current Macbook Pro to brand new iMac?

I currently have CS5 on my Macbook Pro, but I just bought a new iMac yesterday which I want as my main design platform. I currently cannot find my CS5 disc or upgrade information, I can only find my original CS3 Design Premium Disc. I still have the activation codes/serial number for both CS3 and CS5, so I'm very much hoping there is a solution to get CS5 onto the iMac?!?!
Please Help!!!

Should i get the current MacBook Pro or the new design MacBook pro 2012?

Dear all,
GImme some opinions which to choose? Should i wait for the supposedly new design MacBook Pro? or get the current models that hae pretty good specs? I'm doing college at the moment and my current laptop is 4yrs old in need of a new one and hopefully get the 17" MBP coz the specs seem amazing. I'm doing graphics and multimedia so i would need a laptop that can handle all those stuff and be fast. So gimme some ideas what you think abt the current MBP and the soon to come new models? which is something pretty doubtful.

Hold off the buying. The current unibody macs are the last of the generation. A geenration that's in it's 4th year.
You might want to consider upgrading your current hard drive only to an SSD if your mac supports it. You can then move this over to your new mac. That's what I have done, and the speed difference of an SSD makes it feel like a new machine.
I would also suggest you buy a 15" and not a 17" save your money. The 17 is loking carrying a surfboard around.

What should I do to upgrade my current MacBook Pro?

I bought this MacBook Pro in 2007. It is a great computer I know it is old, but I cannot afford a new computer.
So what Can I do to upgrade what I currently have?
MacBook Pro
15-inch 2.4/2.2GHz
Processor is: 2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory: 3 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT 128 MB
Software: OS X 10.9.1 (13B42)
Any ideas?

Please explain why you want to upgrade? You have the most recent OS on it, and the RAM is close to the maximum.
If you want to increase performance, viz. speed and responsiveness, I would recommend replacing the hard drive with a solid state drive. The performance boost is startling. See this from Macworld:
http://www.macworld.com/article/2080852/giving-the-gift-of-speed-the-ssd-upgrade .html
Do it yourself installation is quite easy on your model.

Which generation for the current macbook pro 13?

Which generation proccessor the macbook pro 13 normal and retina currently selling in apple store?
Which should I go for?

vzhen,
you can get the non-Retina model with either a 2.5 GHz Core i5 or a 2.9 GHz Core i7 Ivy Bridge CPU. You can get the Retina model with either a 2.4 GHz Core i5 Haswell, a 2.6 GHz Core i5 Haswell, or a 2.8 GHz Core i7 CPU.
You should go for whichever model best meets your requirements.

Is this a current Macbook Pro?

Wondering if someone more familiar with the details of Macbook Pro releases can tell me if this is the current iteration of the MBPro
http://store.apple.com/usedu478511/product/FC118LL/A?mco=MjE0NDk5Mw
Or if one of the other refurbed models would be a better choice? This one has the built-in "7 hr" battery and the SD card slot.

It's the latest and should work fine for you. It has the same warranty as a new one. If you plan on keeping it over a year, use the money you save to get the AppleCare Plan. You can get on on eBay for about half of Apple's retail price.

absolutely ok to run LIon.
Double of the needed Ram you have already and CPU is what Lion needs.
MacAppstore will also tell you if your machine is not supported, prior to purchase.. it tries to block you from purchasing it, if so.

What's the solution to a frozen iTunes movie rental on a current Macbook Pro with current software? I think perhaps no one knows.

I rented Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Extended Version) tonight, because I'm taking my family to Universal's Wizarding World of Harry Potter tomorrow. This is the kind of event that can't happen just any ol' day; it's expensive, a big deal for everyone, and we were very excited to watch the first HP movie tonight to help set the tone for our getaway. 44 minutes into the movie, it froze, just before the "sorting hat" comes to life. Boy were the kids dissappointed. And the parents. Ugh.
I have a 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5 13" Macbook Pro with 8GB of memory, running OS X vs.10.6.8 with iTunes 10.5.2. I have rented movies many times from the iTunes Store without issue on this computer and also another. Once upon a time, I rented the HD version of a movie and it wouldn't play. I recieved a refund, and rented the non-HD version and it played without flaw, although it wasn't until the following day. In this case, tomorrow is too late, Apple.
Many thanks to anyone who can shed some light on this!
And is this the end of the world? No. However, I must say how dissappointed and irritated I am about this, and here is why: I can't believe that SO MANY people have this same exact problem--it's posted all over the internet--yet every thread I've seen has NO SOLUTION, and no responses from Apple employees. If the answer is out there somewhere, which I certainly don't doubt, how about making it a little EASIER TO FIND? From what I have read, this is a problem that has been occuring for years now.
We have been devout Apple customers--computers, iphones, ipods, ipads, itunes purchases out the wazoo--I'm a big supporter of the whole kit and kaboodle. I really regret not having simply rented this movie from Comcast on demand tonight, though. It was the same price. In fact, I would do that right now, however it's well past the kids bedtime. I wrongly assumed I would find a solution with a little searching after I saw how many people have had this same problem. My bad... I guess...
Honestly, I'm seeing myself using the iTunes Store as a last resort to rent a movie from now on. After you've gotten involved in a movie, it kind of ruins the mood when it stops playing, even if you do have the time to fiddle around troubleshooting or wait a day or two for a response.

If your HDTV is HDCP compliant, you probably will have no problems. But you might want to read this information which while written a while back still, to the best of my knowledge, applies:
http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/16488
HDCP compliance is, from what I've read, rather a "rubber ruler" so even if your TV lists as being HDCP, it might or might not work correctly with your Mac. Testing with one movie first might avoid an expensive surprise.
As to your complaint to Apple, it probably wasn't up to Apple but instead was forced on them as part of the conditions by the content owners for licensing movies and shows to the iTunes Store. But feel free to comment to Apple via their feedback pages:
