Different retina display

I and my friend have two iPhone 4 and bought in different time. One about in august and the other one in november. I noticed that the display are very different, on the new one I'm able to see black lines between a row of pixels and another one. The effect is a disaster.
And there is another problem... with this display the degree of view is shorter compared the other one.
Apple store say that there is no diffences and the display is ok.
How is possible?
Another iPhone 4 (bought in november) has same issue.

I am starting to believe that Apple has switched to cheaper LCD manufacturer

  • Is the photoshop CC and lightroom CC support retina display ?

    Hi, my name is Riyadh
    is the photoshop CC and lightroom CC support retina display ?
    and is the photoshop CS6 & CS6 extended support retina display ?
    and what is the product of adobe dose not support retina display ?
    Thank you for response

    Photoshop and Lightroom run on nearly any display supported by the operating system.  For example I run on a 2880×1800 display on my Windows 8.1 desktop system. That's the same resolution as the Mac Retina display.  If you're asking whether there are special features designed to format images for the particular Retina display sizes, the answer is no.
    Currently there are (5) different "Retina Display" dimensions

  • Can I use Final Cut Studio 2 on the latest macbook pro retina display?

    I'm planning on buying the 15" macbook pro retina display and was given Final cut studio 2 from a friend as he woudn`t use it.
    is it possible to install this program on the computer at all and successfully use it or can i upgrade to the newest version?

    Studio 2? FCP 6? No. Sorry, won't even install. It's 8 year old software...and Apple no longer supports it. 
    The latest version, FCP-X...costs $299. There is no upgrade cost. But once you buy it, every single update after that is free...given the history of past updates.  Note...it's very different from FCP 6. Completely different app.

I use a lot of university software via Remote Desktop connection, it worked very well on my Acer laptop. it's really important that that this staff works as good on my new computer.

  • Magsafe 2 for retina display macbook pro

    I've had two different MacBook Pro's since 2006...  I went through 4 magsafe power adapters as the cable coming straight off the connector always began to permanently bend at the magsafe connection point such that I didn't trust it from an electrical safety point of view (after seeing one arc at that point a time or two).  Then when I bought what would be my 5th power adapter, much to my positive surprise, Apple had done a redesign that had the cable coming out at a right angle with repect to the way the older ones had the cable come out...  They also beefed up how the cable comes out of the magsafe end. 
    Now I see a picture of the 85W power adapter for the new Retina display macbook pro I am planning to buy soon...  And it looks like they've reverted to the old "wire straight out from the connector" approach... 
    Is that true???   That would be a significant step backward for me as where I have to plug in my mac (to the right of where I sit) having a straight cable coming out from the left of the mac is just going to cause me to start wasting power adapters again... 
    Might I be able to continue to use the 85W power adapter I currently have on my 17 inch 2009 macbook pro???  And it's not the original power adapter but one I bought maybe in 2011 or so...  I love this one where the cable leaves in the direction heading out away from the top of the mac rather than the ones that came out straight to the left...  And the picture of the new one appears to come out straight to the left again...
    And what do you even call the power adapter I have that I bought in about 2011 where the cable comes out at a right angle to the magsafe connector itself???
    Any help folks can provide on the questions above would be much appreciated...  thanks...  bob...

    Ahhh, remember the Mac Pro from a few years ago that used a refrigerant?
    And a number of years ago the Cray XMP and YMP had all of the cpus immersed in refrigerants because they ran so hot they were melting the solder and chips.  Those were something to run on...unbelievable speed, well for that point in time.
    I used to have a watch that had more computing power than the IBM 1620 I first learned to program on.

  • Is there a MagSafe 2 compatible portable external power source for the retina display MacBook Pro?

    I’m using a retina display MacBook Pro with the MagSafe 2 connection.   I would like to have a portable external power source to extend the use of my laptop on long field trips where I am away from power sources. Swapping batteries is not an option for this generation of MacBook Pros.  There seem to be many options for PC’s and even iPhones/iPads/iPods but the MagSafe 2 connection seems to be the issue.  I saw one link that suggested buying an Apple MagSafe 2 power adapter and performing surgery on the power cord (using components provided by the vendor) so that the adapter would run on their back up battery.  I was hoping for a more esthetically pleasing solution. Any suggestions?  Does this product exist and I just missed it? Clearly, if a MagSafe(1) compatible external battery existed I could adapt that using the MagSafe to MagSafe 2 converter.

    Sparon,
    I wouldn’t recommend using an underpowered AC adapter with your MacBook Pro. It sounds as though the best solution would be to get a different laptop bag with a sufficiently large side pocket.

  • Is a MacBook Pro w/ Retina display worth the price?

    Apple community-
        Looking at purchasing portability for school- going to work on an MFA in graphics/web/new media, and need some assistance.  I've an iMac from 2007, seems to run flawlessly, but looking at options for taking school with me while at work- I'm currently travelling five different states in my current position.  The new MacBook Pro with Retina display looks stunning, albeit expensive, but has many features that worry me.
        For instance, everything is completely bolted/soldered/non-upgradeable, so any desire of modification needs to be purchased pre-production, right?  Also, the big issue with their PCIe "Flash based" storage... exactly what is this, and why is it so freaking expensive?  I've read different reports on Apple using various manufacturers, so not every MacBook as the same storage model, no third party attempts at upgrades, etc..  If I'd like to install numerous, monstrous programs, such as the entire Adobe Creative Suites, 3D Max, Maya, Final Cut, and so forth, I'll need a high capacity memory drive, as I assume most, if not all of these, need a root drive to install, and not simply an external hard drive.  I still make CDs/DVDs, so a SuperDrive is another $80.
        Chatting with an Apple representative, she stated that there is "only one model that will run my software at peak performance," which was the 15-inch model, starting at $2k; also, my software needed a "dedicated graphics card,"  I'm not too certain that it needs all that, and a high-end PC laptop could certainly run all of my demands- but let's face it, this is an Apple discussions community, and I'm plain simply accustomed to working on an Apple computer.  Plus, I don't really care for Windows 8.
        Should I possibly aim to purchase an older model used, something without Retina, but with more storage?  Is Retina that big of a deal for a laptop?  I also considered the possibility of just toting a Mac Mini with a 13-inch Cintiq tablet; though it does need a constant power supply, it's still quite portable.
        Thoughts?  Am I just overthinking this?  I've been expecting a MacBook to be expensive, but this could be pushing it a bit.
    Cheers!

    guiparent,
    whether it’s worth the price or not is an entirely subjective opinion. My own choice was to buy a used non-Retina 13-inch Mid 2010 MacBook Pro, and replace its hard drive with a SSD; but since I don’t use graphic-intensive apps such as the Adobe Creative Suite, my own choice would most likely not be best for you. Given your graphic design background, if you find the non-Retina displays sufficient for your needs, I’d recommend that you consider a used 15-inch Mid 2012 MacBook Pro. That model has memory sockets, so you can replace/upgrade the RAM if needed; its internal disk can be replaced by/upgraded with any 2.5-inch 9.5-mm-high SATA hard disk or SSD; and it has a built-in SuperDrive.

  • HT201263 I have restored my iPad (first generation without retina display) and it finishes restoring software but will not stay on for me to restore the data and then shuts off whenever I try to turn it on. I don't believe that it is charging! HELP!

    Long story about what happened but basically I was using the iPad (first generation without retina display) to watch TV at one point it had 20% battery so I plugged it in then it wasn't charging and I didn't realize so it got to 5% and shut off. I plugged it in to charge it but it just kept shutting down and showing the apple logo, then briefly showing me my home screen before shutting off again. I waited a while to see if it would charge, while it continued to turn off and on by itself. Finally, I unplugged it to see if it had gotten any charge but it just told me to plug it in again. I plugged it into a different charger, same thing. I decided to try connecting it to a computer and it stopped turning on but it did not seem to charge. I tried restoring it as it said in the article. It worked until it got to restoring the iPad from the backup that I had because it immediately shutdown before I could continue. I tried to restore it a second time but still it shut down! I'm so frusturated and I cannot afford to get a new iPad, I need it for school and there is no Apple store for 80 miles nor do I have any insurance or warranty on it! (Obviously considering it's the first iPad to ever come out.) I really don't know what to do! HELP

  • I can't add printers to my new mac book pro with retina display

    I am trying to set up my HP wireless printer to my new mac book pro with retina display.   I can't get it to work!  I have down loaded the latest driver for my printer, and when I go into the printer area and try and add the printer, nothing shows up and it won't let me even add it.   I can't seem to connect my mac directly to my printer either as I must need a different cord as there does not seem to be a port for the "phone like jack" that I could fall back on with my old Mac.    My printer prints great so I hate to just buy a new printer, but I can't get this to work.   My wireless router is located in the basement, far away from where I keep my printer so it also makes it hard to rest everything.  I even bought the blue tooth adaptor for the HP printer thinking that would solve it all, and nope!  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I have made some progress.... I can print wirelessly from my printer now, but I can't set the printer itself to be wireless.  I had to move my printer downstairs to where my router is...which is not that convient.   I printed up the page you asked about....and as expected, it says it is off line and there is no IP address.    So now I need to figure out how to make my printer itself wireless.  I did download the HP driver I needed...but I can't access it to do anything else.  It seems l like I am missing a step... or I need to hook up my computer itself to the printer to help get the printer to be wirelss, but I can't hook it up because there is no port for me to do that (no port that looks like a phone jack).  I am guessing I would need a different type of cord, but I am not sure what kind of cord that would be! Ugh!

  • DO I need Anti-Virus for my Macbook Pro w/Retina Display?

    I am currently awaiting a MacBook Pro w/Retina Display and I am having an ongoing discussion with some work colleagues, since the Flashback Trojan appeared to infiltrate Mac's back in early 2012... DO I need Anti-Virus.. My argument is no, but everybody elses is yes!
    I would love to see some indepth feedback to send my PC lovers running!
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Joe

    1. This comment applies to malicious software ("malware") that's installed unwittingly by the victim of a network attack. It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the victim's computer. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. If you have reason to suspect that you're the target of such an attack, you need expert help.
    2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files. This feature is transparent to the user, but internally Apple calls it "XProtect." The recognition database is automatically updated once a day; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.
    The following caveats apply to XProtect:
    It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets (see below.)
    It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
    3. Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there has been another layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and Installer packages downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Software certified in this way hasn't actually been tested by Apple (unless it comes from the Mac App Store), but you can be reasonably sure that it hasn't been modified by anyone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so he could be held legally responsible if he distributed malware. For most practical purposes, applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed can be considered safe.
    Gatekeeper has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
    It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
    A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could find some other way to evade Apple's controls.
    For more information about Gatekeeper, see this Apple Support article.
    4. Beyond XProtect and Gatekeeper, there’s no benefit, in most cases, from any other automated protection against malware. The first and best line of defense is always your own intelligence. All known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore amounts to a battle of wits between you and the malware attacker. If you're smarter than he thinks you are, you'll win.
    That means, in practice, that you never use software that comes from an untrustworthy source. How do you know whether a source is trustworthy?
    Any website that prompts you to install a “codec,” “plug-in,” "player," "archive extractor," or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one, is untrustworthy.
    A web operator who tells you that you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, or that you have won a prize in a contest you never entered, is trying to commit a crime with you as the victim. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn users who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
    Pirated copies or "cracks" of commercial software are likely to be infected.
    Software of any kind downloaded from a BitTorrent or from a Usenet newsgroup is unsafe.
    Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be downloaded directly from the developer’s website. No intermediary is acceptable.
    5. Java on the network (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related) is a weak point in the security of any operating system. If a Java web plugin is not installed, don't install one unless you really need it. If it is installed, you should disable it (not JavaScript) in your web browsers. Few websites have Java content nowadays, so you won’t be missing much. This setting is mandatory in OS X 10.5.8 or earlier, because Java in those obsolete versions has known security flaws that make it unsafe to use on the Internet. The flaws will never be fixed. Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java can never be fully trusted, even if no vulnerabilities are publicly known at the moment.
    Follow these guidelines, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can reasonably be.
    6. Never install any commercial "anti-virus" or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they all do more harm than good, even supposing that they do any good at all. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use the free software ClamXav — nothing else.
    Why shouldn't you use commercial "anti-virus" products?
    Their design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere.
    In order to meet that nonexistent threat, the software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
    By modifying the operating system, the software itself may create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.
    7. ClamXav doesn't have these drawbacks. That doesn't mean it's entirely safe. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so will corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.
    ClamXav is not needed, and should not be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful only for detecting Windows malware. Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else. Windows malware attachments in email are almost always easy to recognize without computer assistance.
    8. The greatest danger posed by anti-virus software, in my opinion, is its effect on human behavior. When people install such software, which does little or nothing to protect them from emerging threats, they get a false sense of security from it, and then they may behave in ways that expose them to higher risk. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.
    9. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use in the Sharing preference pane. All are disabled by default.

  • Illustrator CS5 and Macbook Pro with Retina Display

    Anyone have any word on the compatibility here? As a freelancer, Illustrator CS5 is one of my main tools. I've heard there'll be an update to Photoshop, but haven't heard anything about Illustrator.
    Thanks

    I hope they update CS5 because things look pretty terrible if you ask me. Everything renders all pixely and it's dang near impossible to tell if your images look sharp or not. Essentially, everything is pixelated no matter how sharp the image is when you open it.
    Retina looks like it is going to make designing for the web a nightmare. When you deal in pixels and can actually distingish pixel increments by sight on the screen, a display like this is proving to be quite counterproductive. For print and vector based graphics, etc, I think it will be a much different situation, the graphics don't look that bad in CS5 on a retina display. You can see pixelization around edges but gradients are smooth at least and the blacks are incredible.
    This is going to make web design a royal pain though.
