Apple has not included TPM in its hardware for years. It was not used for anything when they did.

    The speakers will have to be externally powered and have internal amplifiers.  Is that the case?

  • What sort of spywear/virus protection does the macbook pro retina have

    what sort of spy wear/virus protection does a macbook pro retina have

    The system has built-in malware protection that Apple updates as required as long as you keep you system properly updated.
    There is no spyware protection. Only you can prevent spyware.
    Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
    An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
    Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.

    If you require anti-virus protection I recommend using VirusBarrier Express 1.1.6 or Dr.Web Light both from the App Store. They're both free, and since they're from the App Store, they won't destabilize the system. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.)
    From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
    The facts are:
    1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
    2. There is no anti-malware that can detect anything targeting the Mac because there
         is no Mac malware in the wild, and therefore, no "signatures" to detect.
    3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
         the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
         techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
    4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
        your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
        protection against malware.
    5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
        from which they purport to protect you.
    6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
    7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
    8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
        you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
    9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware.

  • Macbook Pro retina have a network problem that I need to restart my computer before getting it's able to connect to internet

    Macbook Pro Retina 15" 2012, Mountain Lion OS pre-installed.
    Case 1:
    It connects to WiFi home network and internet fine.
    Put the machine to sleep.
    Upon waking up, it can scan for my home network that it used to connect to, but either not able to connect, or even after it connects, it just can't let me access internet.
    Restarting the machine can revive by getting it connects properly to internet.
    Toggling the Bluetooth won't help here.
    Case 2:
    It connects to network using USB ethernet adapter.
    Same case, everything works fine before sleep. After sleeping for some time, it's not able to connect to the internet any more unless I do a restart.
    It's able to access local area network though, as I'm able to see some local network machines in my Finder window. Yes, I clicked on them and able to connect to their share folders. But just can't get through internet.
    OS Problem? I'm not able to roll back to other OS, I swear I don't want to go through that painful process.
    Hardware problem : WiFi card? Don't think so, because I can't get to internet even I immediately switch to USB ethernet adapter.
    Hardware problem : USB ethernet? It works fine in other non-Mac machines.
    There got to be something wrong in somewhere that it doesn't re-establish the connection to the internet, no matter what I do.
    None of the functions in the network utility tool can help.

    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, or by a peripheral device. 
    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. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click  Log in.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Does Macbook Pro Retina support non-Apple optical drives?

    So, Im facing the decision of which Macbook to invest in. I understand the new Retina Macbook Pro does not include an optical drive, which is a problem for me as I am a gamer usually using Bootcamp. I see that Apple offers a "superdrive" though it only supports CDs and DVDs and if I am to buy a seperate optical drive I believe I should go for one that also has Blu Ray support. So my question is if I get a third party drive will it work with my Apple computer?
    Thanks for your time

  • How many bits does my macbook pro retina have

    I am trying to download anti-virus program but it requires me to know if my Mac is 32 bit or 64 bit and I honestly have no idea. Can someone please help?

    Macs are 64-bit. But you may wish to skip AV software. It's really not needed.

  • Macbook pro retina 2013 broken rubber feet.

    Hi all,
    The rubber feet on my 2013 macbook pro retina have worn away really badly and a couple have fallen off.
    I tried a light glue to hold them back on but this only worked for a few weeks.
    I have tried ebay for new cheap Chinese feet but they didn't have my model, purchased some anyway on the off chance they'd work anyway (what's a couple of dollars for such an annoying issue), no dice their centres were too tall so the feet don't make contact with the base (hard to explain, I guess the old models had a hole in the base the feet slotted into)
    The online chat person said that apple doesn't sell the feet and that I'd need a whole new base plate... This is ridiculous they're sticky rubber feet! Does anyone have a beat on some after market "fake" feet that would fit my model properly?
    I'm not entirely convinced this is caused by reasonable wear and tear, they wore really badly I've never had this issue with old macbooks but I guess arguing it's a manufacturing defect outside warranty is probably more trouble than it's worth.
    Thanks all .

    I measured the diameter of the foot on my MBP and it is 16 mm.  I suggest that you measure the size on the retina MBP.  If it is the same, purchase the non retina ones and glue them in place.  Just on principle purchasing a bottom plate is absurd to replace one of the feet.  That was the case with the non retina MBPs a few years ago.
    What you may need is a pentalobe driver to get the bottom plate off of the MBPr in order to properly install the foot.
    Ciao.

  • My new macbook pro retina won't connect to my iPhone 4s via bluetooth

    Just bought macbook pro retina. have had iPhone 4s for two years and use it to tether my iPad to regularly no problem. however the macbook pro won't connect to the iPhone via bluetooth. it recognises it's there and a connection code is displayed, but when I enter the code it won't connect and the phone insists that I agree to 'forget this device'. how do I enable tethering so I can use the 3g signal to browse on my laptop whilst travelling please?

    Only thing I could suggest would be to "Reset Network Settings" on the phone (Settings> General> Reset>) . Of course, this will forget and delete any saved Wi-Fi or network configurations, but if that's not a problem for you then, maybe worth a shot.
    Although saying that, I think iCloud remembers old settings (if you are connected and sharing network configurations), so may not be a total loss.

  • Macbook Pro Retina's screen with a lot of issues (big vertical lines)

    I discovered recently that my MacBook Pro Retina have a lot of strange verticales lines on the screen.
    Not visible in current usage, but when I switch to dashboard and his black background sreen I can clearly see those issues.
    Anyone get this problem?
    Have to change my computer?

    I would certainly take it into an Apple Store and, if you can reproduce the problem for them, insist that it be fixed. If you're within your 14-day grace period, you can exchange your unit for another, no questions asked.
