Does the macbook pro 13 mid 2012 have an ir sensor? Thanks in advance

Hi,
I just got my new MBP 13 inch, and I was wondering if I'd be able to use the apple remote with my macbook since it was a birthday present from my brother. It'd be great if you guys could help me out!
thanks in advance!

Wow, I'm amazed. I literally posted this question a couple of seconds ago. How great is your response time! I really appreciate it.
Actually, there is apparently an IR sensor. But I had to click on advanced first - my bad
Anyway, thanks a lot for your help. Great to hear that I can use my litttle brothers present!

  • Why does my MacBook Pro 13" mid 2012 version run quite slowly?

    I used to have a Windows PC, which ran VERY VERY VERY slowly. I heard that Macs did not get viruses and ran very quickly, so I bought a brand new MacBook Pro 13" mid 2012 version (entry level). At first it was running quite smoothly, but after some time it became slower, with boot ups taking about 2-3 minutes, instead of the 30 seconds boot up time I kept on hearing on Internet reviews. Is the RAM (4GB) insufficient? Or is 30 seconds just exaggerated? Launching apps can take quite a while, especially graphics intensive apps such as iMovie. Opening folders in my thumb drive can be quite a pain too, seeing as there is a lot of visible lag in the opening of files and folders.

    Boot times of 2-3 minutes are a little slow, my 15" doesn't do 30 seconds but faster than 2-3 minutes.  From your comments about how you are using the MBP, the entry level model may not have been the best choice...the 13" models have only one graphic processor, the 15" models have two.  The normal-usage Intell 4000 and a discrete AMD that kicks in with graphic intensive software.  If you are going to do a lot of video and games, the discrete processor will be a big help.  Also, 4 GB ram is often more than adequate, but some software really benefits from more ram.
    You can check the ram usage, and cpu usage, by going to Launchpad, Utilities, Activity Monitor.  See what the memory usage is with your software open and active...is the ram being used fully, are there a lot of page ins and page outs?  That means it is using the mass storage as it runs out of memory space.  If that is the case, increasing the ram to 8 GB will help.
    The Activity Monitor can also show you the load on the cpu so that gives an idea of how much you are pushing the system.

  • Bluetooth of the Macbook Pro 13 "(mid 2012) with poor signal and constant interruptions

    I have a macbook pro 13" mid 2012, no retina display, with OS X 10.9.2 (Mavericks), and your bluetooth device it loses the signal when placing a barrier on the right side of the mac, the output of the optical drive (CD / DVD).
    The signal is severely reduced. Just hold the Mac 's right, put my hand in front of the optical drive or turn the machine a little longer and the interference occurs.
    I have a set of boxes bluetooth Sony sound and audio is constantly interrupted. I just put my hand in front of the optical drive, at a distance of about 30 centimeters (11.81 inches), and the bluetooth signal (RSSI) fell from -54dbm to -83dbm. The connection was lost completely.
    Then I turned the right side of the Mac otherwise the speakers meaning and dropped signal of -54dbm to -75dBm. In this test there were no barriers in front of the optical drive. The audio suffered severe interference. The sound was inaudible.
    I did other tests. The same loss occurs with the magic mouse and Apple keyboard bluetooh. Tests done in multiple locations without other nearby connections. Not occurring interference from other devices.
    This is a feature of the bluetooth device mac or my computer has a hardware problem?
    I thank anyone who can help me.
    P.S.: Forgive me for my bad english. I used the Google translator.

  • Does the MacBook Pro with Retina Display have a CD burner?

    I ordered the MacBook Pro earlier this week without checking if it even had a CD burner. It's really not a big deal if it doesn't have one, but I would just like to know. Does anyone have a MacBook out there or knows whether or not the one with Retina Display has a CD Burner?!

    No

  • Does the MacBook Pro with retina display have a cd drive?

    I'm looking into buying a new laptop. But I'm pretty sure that the Macbook with retina display doesn't have a cd drive. But the normal MacBook has one. Is this correct.

    The retina display Macbook Pro does not have a cd drive. See the specs http://www.apple.com/macbook-pro/specs-retina/

  • Can the Macbook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) Hard Drive be Upgraded?

    I have a Macbook Pro Retina Display Mid 2012 that has a 512GB SSD Hard Drive. I am finding that I need more space and having an External Hard Drive is a little inconvenient. I see that there are 1TB SSD and thinking of changing out my Hard Drive. Is this possible? If so, what brand of Solid State Drive should I look into. Thank you for your time.

  • Does the Macbook Pro 13" Early 2011 have Sandy Bridge?

    I have the Early 2011 Macbook Pro 13" with an Intel i5 Processor. Some of my friends told me that only the Intel i7 Processor Macbook Pros have the new Sandy Bridge processor. Are they correct because the base model is the only Macbook Pro in the line to have an i5 Processor.

    It is not stated in the specifications that either the i5 or i7 has a "Sandy Bridge", but they are the current intel processors, and will be followed by "Ivy Bridge" intel processors (assuming Apple sticks with intel for their processors).  Knowing now that our macs have the second generation "Sandy Bridge" intel processors.  More info: http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/03/intels-2nd-generation-core-processor-family-a nnounced-includes/. The first generation intel processors in the 13" MBP model prior to ours is called "Penryn".

  • Does the Macbook Pro (2012) have a dvd drive? I can't seem to find one.

    Does the Macbook Pro (2012) have a dvd drive? I can't seem to find one.

    Not the MBP-R's, you can't even change the RAM or storage in them.
    The other 15" MBP's you can and they include the Superdrive built in.
    Last time you do a impulsive purchase huh?

  • Macbook Pro 15 mid 2012 friezes in the games.

    Добрый день! Возникла проблема с моим Macbook про 15 mid 2012. С некоторых пор появились фризы в играх, вне зависимости от сложности игры и ее 2D или 3D движка.
    Отнес в официальный сервис, провели диагностику, ничего не выявили. Почистили, заменили термопасту, и сказали мне, что просто игры становятся сложнее а ноутбук не успевает за ними. И в заключении написали не подтвердились проблемы заявленные мной.
    По моему меня просто проигнорировали.
    Предположу что проблема в видеочипе. Но почему при принудительной смене на интегрированный чип, ничего не поменялось.
    Что было сделано еще до сервисного центра.
    Была обновлена Йосимите до последней версии, затем в качестве проверки, была установлена Маверикс.
    Ничего не изменилось.
    Good afternoon! There was a problem with my Macbook pro 15 mid 2012. For some time now there friezes in the games, regardless of the complexity of the game and its 2D or 3D engine.
    Took it to the official service, held diagnostics have revealed nothing. Cleaned, replaced the thermal paste, and told me that just the game become more complex and the laptop does not have time for them. And finally wrote not confirmed the problem stated by me.
    In my opinion I just ignored.
    I suppose that the problem in the video chip. But why the forced change in the integrated chip, nothing has changed.
    What has been done before the service center.
    Yosimite been updated to the latest version, then as a test, was set Mavericks.
    Nothing has changed.

    Забыл добавить. Проблема одинакова Windows или OS X. Игры в которых проблемы выявлены: Craft the world, World of tanks, Warthunder, Diablo 3. И если три последние чтото требуют от системы, то первая которая на видео это 2д игра для любого типа видеокарт.
    Forgot to add. The problem is the same Windows or OS X. Games in which problems are identified: Craft the world, World of tanks, Warthunder, Diablo 3. And if something last three require the system, which is the first video on this 2d game for any kind of video cards.

  • MacBook Pro 15'' mid 2012 does not boot

    Hi
    We upgraded our MacBook Pro 15'' (mid 2012) we changed the memory from 4GB to 16GB, changed the hard-disk for a 512GB Samsung SSD and installed 10.10 Yosemite (clean install)
    Everything worked OK, we installed some software. All of a sudden the laptop switched itself of. We thought the battery was empty but as it turned out, the notebook is dead. When starting we hear the clicking sound of the DVD drive but that's it, no chime. The screen stays black although we think we see some backlight, very weakly.
    We tried a lot, putting back the old drive and memory but the behavior is the same. We removed all memory and then the MBP beeps, but does not start.
    Reset PRAM, reset SMC, removed the battery, nothing helps.
    - Is the beeping an indication that the CPU still works?
    - What can be the cause of this?
    - What can we do?
    Thanks in advance for the help.

  • Does the Macbook Pro have a program to run Windows? If not, what is the best program to do so?

    Does the Macbook Pro have a program to run Windows built in? If not, what is the best program to do so. Purchasing a new Mac.

    No. The Mac does not have anything to run Windows
    You must install either virtualizrion software or use BootCamp to create a partition for Windows. Once you have done that then you must install Windows.
