Does the Macbook pro retina have the ability to use external speakers

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.
    See these Apple articles:
              Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection

              OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
              About file quarantine in OS X
    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.

  • Has Apple pulled the SMC update for the Macbook Pro Retina from the App Store

    Does anyone know if Apple pulled the SMC update for the Macbook Pro Retina? I can no longer see it as an update in the app store. I am refering to the update that enables power nap on the Macbook Pro Retina.

    It showed up in my ML App Store.
    What is your SMC version?
    Mine is
    SMC Version (system):          2.3f28
    and I don't have the update installed.

  • Does a MacBook pro 13 have the ability to convert digital audio to analog audio ?

    I don't like clutter and would like my computer to do the job of a good DAC. What should I be considering to accomplish this?

    Doing so requires software (and maybe hardware) that would not be included with a new Mac, but surely such software exists that would work on the Mac. Check MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Does the macbook pro retina 15 inch comes with cd/dvd drive?

    Hey
    Does the macbook pro retina 15 inch comes with cd/dvd drive?
    thanks

    The MacBook Pro with Retina display doesn't come with a CD/DVD drive. Instead, you have to buy the Apple USB SuperDrive or any external optical drive, or you can use Remote Disc if you have another Mac > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5287

  • 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?

  • I have bought a Macbook Pro Retina, and the iPhoto which comes with it, has a different iPhoto Book menu.  I cannot see how to put text at the bottom of the pages of photographs, instead of the default place in the middle.  Is there a way to do this?

    There are different templates for iPhoto books and they differ from version of iPhoto to iPhoto, so explore the other options.

  • Does the battery charging in the macbook pro retina automatically cut off when the battery is fully charged?

    Does the battery charging in the macbook pro retina automatically cut off when the battery is fully charged? or does it continue charging?In which case,is it better for the battery life to switch off the power supply or leave it on while using the macbook?

    Yes, and the pilot light on the MagSafe2 connector changes from orange to green. If you unplug, you will start draining the battery again, whereas if plugged the Mac will take power from the brick and leave the battery in a charged state.

  • Will an Infra-Red Adapter work with a macbook pro retina display so I can use the apple TV remote for presentations?

    I have always used the apple TV remote for my presentations.  I bought a retina display last year for the betterment of my presentations and now I have to stand near my computer and hit a button to change my slides where as before I used my remote.  Will a infra-red adapter work with the apple TV remote in the macbook pro retina display?  Love my computer, but very disappointed not to have a remote for presentations that does not need the internet.  Does anyone have any ideas?

    Yes, I used that and it works great if you have wireless connection.  Im looking for  a remote that worked like the apple TV remote.  My questions is, "Is there a USB infra-red remote that works with mac.  I have found this one: Keyspan EZ1 easy presenter.  It claims with works with PC and Mac and the reviews are good.  Does anyone know anything about it or if it works with retina display macs?

  • Infinite shipping delay in the MacBook Pro Retina to Europe

    Does anyone know why Apple is delaying the shippment of the MacBook Pro Retina every week?
    I bought one more than a month ago and every week they extend the shipping estimate date. I'm thinking on return it back. The sadness is that I already have my useless Thunderbolt Cinema Display, and a also useless Thunderbolt hard drive which I don't know if they work properly because I don't have the computer to test them!!
    Does anyone know something about this?

    Welcome to Apple Communities
    Go to App Store > Updates and install it. Also, open System Preferences > Energy Saver to enable that

  • I'm about to buy the MacBook Pro Retina 15 inch in USA. I will be using predominantly in Europe. What accessories should I be buying?

    I'm about to buy the MacBook Pro Retina 15 inch in USA. I will be using predominantly in Europe. What accessories should I be buying?

    We can't discuss what Apple is going to do or new products, but it does make a lot of sense if your gut feelings tell you to buy now.
    I got a really bad feeling and ran out and got the last of the 17" MBP's with anti-glare and Snow Leopard.
    Turned out I was right in listening to my gut, the abortion of OS X Lion came out killed my 15", Cupertino HQ was pwned by Flashback and Apple pulled the 17" MBP completely off the market.
    Apple has purposely put the Retinas front and center in their stores, so the majority of the know-nothings buy those. If they thought a bit about buying a machine with future options in upgrade options they would, like you, choose the non-Retina.
    Really if you want choice in hardware, your going to have to switch to a PC. As you can pretty much get anything you need on that platform. Apple's hardware choices have been sealing up and their OS X is turning into iOS, soon it's going to be nothing more than a dumbed down iPad.
    Windows 8 Pro can be downgraded to Window 7 even, and since Win 7 is supported until 2020, you should be set for quite a few more years. The choice of software is vast on Windows and it's sort of the next eveolutionary step up actually.
