Does MacBook Pro Retina Display have light sensor?

I bought a skin protactor for my Retina Display MacBook Pro, and the auto brightness doesn't seem to be working automatically. I was wondering if it has any light sensor, like MacBook Pro, and if it does then where would it be.

Yes, it does. It's located somewhere beneath the keyboard.

  • Why does macbook pro retina display shows 512 mb?

    i have bought a macbook pro retina and ofcourse its 1gb display card but when i check about info ( about this mac ) it shows 512 mb instead 1 gb. why?

    There are two GPUs in the retina MacBook Pro.  One is the Intel HD Graphics 4000 and  the other is the Nvidia GeForce GT 650M.  The Intel GPU has 512Mb and the NVIDIA GPU has 1GB.  The Intel GPU does not use a lot of power but is not as powerful as the NVIDIA one.  The OS automatically switches between the two depending on what you are doing on the machine unless you disable the auto-switching.
    You can get much more detailed report about your system including the graphics hardware by selecting "About This Mac" under the Apple menu then clicking on the "More Info..." button then the "System Report" button.  The Graphics/Displays section under hardware in the window will show you both GPUs.

  • Will my macbook pro retina display have problems later on?

    Okay so I was eating salmon and had a small lemon wedge. I was putting the lemon on the salmon and some of the lemon juice got on the key board. I immediately cleaned it afterwards. I used cotton balls and q tips. I even look up on to remove the keys and cleaned it that way too. also the next day I got a alcohol wipe and wiped the key board too. The lemon juice had only a few droplets and mostly on the gray part of the computer. Maybe like 1-2 drops we in between the keys but right after i cleaned it with a absorbent cloth. Pleaseeee let me know if my macbook will have corrosion or something even worst! I am freaking out!

    You're asking a question that nobody can answer.
    Keep a good thought!
    Good luck!

  • I just bought a 13" macbook pro retina display. I need to run films and presentations remotely. Does RemoteHD work on a machine without an IR sensor, or does anybody know what would work?

    I have a mid 2009 Macbook Pro and I have just bought a 13" macbook pro retina display. I need to run films and presentations remotely., i.e not sitting at the computer.
    Does RemoteHD work on a machine without a built in IR sensor, or does anybody know what would work?

    I can't vouch for this as I've never tried one, but I think this does what you're after.

  • I have a Macbook pro Retina display, I have a small nick in my screen that is annoying especially when watching videos. What is my best option for fixing it?/does apple care apply?

    I have a Macbook pro Retina display, I have a small nick in my screen that is annoying especially when watching videos. What is my best option for fixing it?/does apple care apply?

    Did you cause the nick? Or did it just appear one day? There are reports of the retina screen having exploding pixels which leaves a hole in the screen that can be felt when you rub your finger across it. If that is what happened then it should be covered under the warranty. If you caused the nick then it is not covered and the fix will be very expensive, somewhere in the $1000 range.

  • I have a MS Office for Mac CD, how do I install the software onto my MacBook Pro (Retina Display)?

    I have a MS Office for Mac CD, how do I install the software onto my MacBook Pro (Retina Display)? It does not have a CD drive.

    If all else fails, try this.  i used to do it all the time before. might or might not work with the new office.
    if you have access to another computer with a cd/dvd rom, copy the entire contents of the cd on a thumb drive.
    insert the thumb drive in your MB and do the install from there.
    However, if you have the newer version of MS Office, Bandit's suggestion is much better.

    If your MBP is under warranty, bring it to an Apple store and have the technicians fix it.  If not, try the steps in this support article:

  • Why does my macbook pro retina display shutdown while entering the administer account

    why does my macbook pro retina display shutdown while entering the administer account

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • I am going to replace my 3 year old MacBook Pro with a new MacBook Pro Retina display machine.  I have been told by Apple that I can use the Migration Assistant ON MY WIRELESS NETWORK (no cables) to transfer data... I've read this can take AGES.. True?

    I am planning to replace my 3+ year old MacBook Pro with a new MacBook Pro, Retina display... I have been told by "chat" on the Apple site that I can transfer my data wirelessly... on my network.. Is is a good option?  I don't want to invest in cables if I can help it... since the old machine has firewire and the new one has thunderbolt!  Will the wireless transfer take forever... as in 30-50 hours???  I've been hearing these horror stories...

  • Does photoshop elements 12 support MacBook Pro retina display?

    Does elements 12 support MacBook Pro retina display?

    The point about whether to use an automatic process or not is a separate issue. I can understand that some people would not want to use it. However, even doing it manually in PE12 does not use the MWG standard.
    Thanks for the pointer to the thread, which I note was started 2 years ago, with the last comment a year ago.
    From that, I draw the conclusion that the PE developers see this as a very low priority. All the more reason for me to look at competitor products that do support this standard (e.g. Picasa and Photo Supreme).
    Thanks again.
