Since you are "in response to mende1" I will be interested in how mende1 answers your question...
My short answer is YES!
I was able to run Intel Tiger in VMWare Fusion 2.0 successfully on my 2009 MacBook Pro in Lion and I assume that the same could be achieved on a more modern MBP Retina.
The "long" details are:
The difficulty is that it is not an exercise for the faint of heart!
VMWare will not assist you in this project.
You have to obtain a copy of Fusion 2.0; not Fusion 4.x
Fusion 2.0, which ran on Lion on my MBP, may not run in Mt. Lion.
You have to contact the German blogger to have him open his blog to you, or otherwise give you his information, as I do not recall the steps it took to make it work. I have his email somewhere, if you are interested...
Kinda sorry now that I trashed the VM Tiger file, but since my trial period expired, I wanted to free up the disc space. It was fun to see the Tiger background again! I should have at least kept a screenshot!

Running two displays from MBP Retina under windows

I'm looking at purchasing a MBP Retina 13". I have two external monitors that can accept HDMI and DVI (neither can do displayport). Some software that I run requires me to sometimes boot into windows. Under windows 7, can I output a DVI signal from each of my thunderbolt ports? Do I just need to run two mini-displayport to DVI adapters? Or is not that simple? (both external monitors are 1900x1080)

Hi,
read the documentation:

and you will find multiple errors, you probably did.
Especially the part on preparing storage.

Using LabVIEW and an E-Series DAQ Card to perform relatively high speed single point acquisition in response to a changing DIO pattern.

I am using the DIO lines on my E-series card to drive an external multiplexer which switches 1 of 8 sets of 3 signals to channels 0,1 and 2 on my DAQ. I need to acquire the 3 single points of data, do a little processing, then update the mux code before acquiring the next 3 points of data and so on. I have been trying to do this using hardware controlled loops but can only achieve a real sampling rate (time between the same set of three signals) of about 200s/s. I am trying to achieve in excess of 800 s/s. Any ideas?.

HI CP,
You are doing pretty good if you are getting 200S/s.
I believe the only way you can get 800 S/s reliably is to go to LV-Real Time. Not for the speed, but for the determinism.
That's my idea.

The hard drive on my 2009 midyear 13" MBP died. I found this on Amazon and want to know if it is a good replacement choice: Western Digital WD Scorpio Black 750 GB SATA 3 GB/s 7200 RPM 16 MB Cache Internal Bulk/OEM 2.5-Inch Mobile Hard Drive

If you are going to upgrade your harddisk, why not upgrade to SSD harddisk. You macbook pro supports SATA II SSD drives acccording to these Specs. SATA III is backward compatible with SATA II, so you can buy SATA III drive if you can't find SATA II drives.
Upgrading to SATA II SSD drive you give you super fast performence.
These are a few Segate SSD drives from amazon, that are not that expensive, I guess.
As for Western Digital vs Segate comparison, I second clintonfrombirmingham's suggestion. Western Digital never works for me.
*** After the harddisk upgrade
Install latest OS if possible
Update your EFI firmware
and clean NVRAM http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379

Western Digital USB3 external hard drive (attached to new MBP Retina) seems to randomly "eject" itself when I'm trying to back it up via time machine. When this happens, I can't even shut my machine down properly. Ideas?

The backup process will run for sometimes 30 minutes or more. But, it's as if, at some point, the drive just can't be found. I get the message "this drive was ejected improperly". When this happens: my machine won't shut down, disk utility won't run. I have to press and hold the power button to force a shut down. Any ideas what's going on here? A MBP Retina issue? A USB3 issue? A western digital issue (although this drive has been functioning fine on old MBP)?
Thanks!

When you say that you've applied the latest 'patch,' I'm assuming that you mean the latest (July 18) software update for mid-2012 models? It was supposed to address some of the problems with the USB 3.0 ports. I don't think that, in most cases, it's a problem with the drives themselves (USB 2 or 3), rather it seems to be a port problem.
If it wasn't fixed for you using the July 18 Software Update the only thing I can recommend at this point is to see if Mountain Lion - soon to be released - will be able to fix the problems. If not, I would take your unit back to the Apple Store and let them know that you are continuing to have problems with the USB 3.0 ports. They may offer to switch out your logic board, etc.
Good luck,
Clinton

Will using FileVault 2 on the new MBP Retina SSD reduce performance?

I read in an ArsTechnica article (http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2012/06/inside-the-ssd-revolution- mobile-devices-and-modern-oss/3/) that the performance impact of using Full Disk Encryption on an SSD with a SandForce controller is potentially sizeable, due to the inability of the controller to identify wether data was eligible for deduplication. This is because when the SandForce controller analyzes data for homogeneity, similar files that would otherwise be deduped would be treated like unique data (the encryption makes them all unique). I know they mentioned that the delta was minor, but I'm interested in how minor it is, and they used the MBA for performance benchmarks.
So my fundamental question is this: Would I receive reduced performance on my SSD in storage capacity, longevity, or write speeds because of using FileVault 2, and if so, is there any inherent encryption built into the SandForce controller that would protect my data without the need for FileVault 2? This is a deciding factor that will determine if my MBP can be used for work or not.
*As a sidenote, please don't say that FDE isn't necessary or that I should go without encryption to solve this problem. I handle sensitive patient data that requires all of my work devices to be encrypted.*

I've been using FV2 on a 240GB OWC 6G for aboutr 6 momths. The disk is about 50% full. The performance is pretty bad as you can see - 105/177 MBs and I've contacted OWC to see if they have a view. But I'm about to turn FV off and see if the performance improves.

Still suffering with dropping, unresponsive bluetooth on MBP Retina. When will this be fixed?

I am still having this problem with my MBP Retina display. I am currently typing on the keyboard on the machine because it just lost the bluetooth connection, yet again. After the message flashes up saying "connection lost" for my keyboard the bluetooth settings on my system preferences are not responsive. It drops the connection very regularly, usually at the end of the day but it's something that goes wrong with the bluetooth on the macbook because I get the same <<do not localize...Name not available>> message that others have mentioned.
What has NOT fixed this issue:
I have reset NVRAM/PRAM
I have reset the SMC
I have the latest OSX v. 10.9.2
I have new batteries in two different apple wireless keyboards that have both suffered the same issue
I have switched off wifi and run from ethernet, but bluetooth still fails, it still happens.
I have searched the discussions and found many people reporting the same problem going back many months now but nobody posting a solution that works. When is this going to get sorted out?

This is still happening to me on a daily basis. I'm unable to connect to, or switch off bluetooth on my MBPRetina from Spring 2013. I get the message <<do not localize...name not available>> on my bluetooth preferences. I'm now going to restart my computer so I can connect to the wireless keybaoard. Is there nothing that can be done about this glitch?

MBP Retina OS X Yosemite has distorted display when connected to Epson projector. How do I fix this?

Hello ATLawson,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that the display, after connecting to a projector, does not have the image quality you would expect. There may be a few different troubleshooting steps I would recommend in this situation. To begin troubleshooting, I would suggest reading over and working through the information in the attached article.

Sudden MBP Retina 15" gaming performance drop

Hi there,
I've owned my Macbook Pro Retina since a few weeks after it came out last year, and have generally loved using it. However, I'm starting to worry now as I've noticed a severe performance drop lately in games.
I've not booted into Bootcamp (Windows 8 x64) for about two months now, but today I loaded up Skyrim, and the performance was atrocious. The game was unplayable at 1920x1200 on high, unmodded. It lags horribly - 10FPS at most. I used to be able to play this game heavily modded and achieve a high FPS. I've noticed a performance drop with other games as well, much lower than what I'd expect from this machine.
I've checked out GPU-Z and the 650M GT clocks up to 900MHz when the game launches.
I'm not sure what has caused this but I've done some reading and people have suggested an "SMC Reset" - I've tried this to no avail. If anyone could lend any advice I'd greatly appreciate it.

Well one problem is that bootcamp hasn't been updated to support Windows 8 yet, so there may be driver issues there. I have experienced this problems and so have others in this forum and an smc reset has fixed the majority. Are you sure you are performing the SMC reset correctly? Also, try a PRAM reset and see if that helps resolve the issue.

My MBP Retina gets very confused when I plug in/unplug external monitors. Is this normal?

I've noticed my MBP Retina is more easily confused than my old MBP when using external monitors.
The problems occur after unplugging from an external monitor. Unless I actually re-start the computer, the resolution in some apps (e.g. Safari) fails to revert to retina quality. I am often left with the toolbar and windows so far off the laptop screen that it is impossible to reach them and the OS is unusable (have to restart). And just now the machine went into a strange fit where it kept powering on and off the displays every few seconds, apparently unable to decide what mode to be in. Again, I had to restart.
Is it normal to expect that I would have to restart the machine when moving between external monitor/laptop only combinations?
All these effects are fairly intermittent (although very frequent) so could be hard to reproduce at the Genius bar.

MBP Retina or Powerful Ultrabook?

Hi, I've been a PC user all my life, but after working my way through the first iPod Nano, a couple iPod Touches, and now an iPad 2- I've grown to like the way Apple works. I'm finally at the point where I've decided to upgrade my 4-year old Future Shop sale Toshiba, which surprisingly has lasted me a good deal of time. However, I'm not a fan of the limited capabilities, the weight, and the fact that it very easily overheats (to nearly scalding temperatures), leading me to opt for my iPad most of the time. I'm a sucker for HD and quick boot-ups, so of course I fell in love with the MBP Retina when it was released. The only thing holding me back is the hefty price tag. Because of this, I began to research several ultrabooks and found that I could get the same specs (except for retina, but I'm fine with 1080p) and even a few bonus features (I would love a Blu-Ray drive and some accident-proof features) for half, or slightly-more-than-half of the price of the MBP. My favourite features of the MBP are the "little things"- fast bootup, magsafe, trackpad, and iCloud to work seamlessly with my iPad (which, i guess isn't really a "little thing"). I'm just not sure if these are worth the extra $1000 when I could just get an amazing PC.
I plan to use this computer in the following ways:
- Web browsing/ social networking
- Homework (university... of course)
- Entertainment (play movies, TV shows, etc)
- Some video and picture editing (I have a Sony camera which records AVCHD, which edits best on Sony Vegas)
- Running language software (i.e. Rosetta Stone)
So anyway, I'm not a gamer or a hardcore video editor, but I would like to be able to do some editing and video playback with clarity and without lag. As such, I figure I really only need the i5, so the base model of the Retina is fine for me. But again, I could get a **** good computer with i5 for much less money than the Retina, so I'm looking for reasons to sway either way. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
tj

Hmm...
'll readily admit, I'm a bit of an Apple head, so always say YEAH GO FOR IT.
However,
I'd say be aware, if you aren't going to use the power, you may be better going for alternatives, but I'll give you a rundown of some pro's and cons for your usage.
- Cold boots in 15 seconds flat
- can play 4 1080p streams at once without lag or framerate drop
- Photo editing on Aperture is excellent
- Photostream means your photos are there almost instantly wirelessly (not with the camera of course)
- Photoshop CS6 (when the retina patch is out) will look brilliant
- I had a photo zoomed out to fill half the screen size, of a whole person, yet could still see individual hairs on the head.
- Build, engineering, design and material quality unsurpassed in the industry (you cannot flex anywhere or make anything creak)
- Logevity, just upgraded from a 2008 Air - which was still going strong with no visible wear or damage/scratches
-Power, good graphics chip, switchable for battery life
- Video editing is amazing (on Final Cut Pro - which is Retina ready) you can veiw full 1080p with the interface still visible
Cons:
- Lag - on 'best for retina' its great, on 'More space' scaling, if you allow GFX chip switching, will cause serious lag - forcing the GeForce fixes this
- Other laptops will be great for your needs, and cheaper, but may not last as long
- The next generation in a year will likely iron out the lag issues
- Most programs are not yet retina ready - meaning they look... well... very dodgy indeed
I would say the MacBook is a fantastic machine and you will not regret the purchase, it will last you a good 3-5 years and you will thoughoughly enjoy it. It's an absolute joy to you and the trackpad and keyboard are brilliant. The speakers are also great.
However, you will likely get a notebook more than good enough for your needs, as you said, for much less money. If you can happily afford it - get the Mac, they are some of the finest computers money can buy. If it's a stretch - get a **** good alternative, you'll enjoy it equally and get great performance and some extra money in the old pocket!
Hope this helped a bit anyway - if you have any questions, ask away, more than happy to help

Going from iMac to MBP retina for video editing

I appreciate that this question probably gets asked reasonably regularly but I have a few specific points I'd like some help on.
I've been using a pretty high specced iMac for video editing for a couple of monthes;
Current model 21.5 - 2.8ghz with i7 processor
250GB SSD
16GB RAM
I also run off a second 24inch monitor
My main workflow is Premiere Pro 5.5 for editing, After Effects 5.5 for compositing and effects and Da Vinci Resolve 8 for grading. I push the software reasonably hard (footage doesnt stray above full HD res so far though, I use 5D mk2 video footage 99% of the time) and I've been super happy with how the iMac keeps up.
The general work that the iMac has to chew through is - big Premiere Pro projects with a reasonable amount of dynamic linking with AE. After Effects is used for mostly compositing with quite a lot of visual effects. Resolve is used for grading with a lot of 3D tracking, noise reduction and normal grading stuff - same as the others...quite intensive).
However..... I have no portable computer and not enough money to invest in a decent one in addition to the iMac. I don't go a week where having a good MBP wouldn't have been a massive help. I'm not a massive geek when it comes to macs. I appreciate that the iMac is a desktop and should outperform any laptop but there are loads of things on the MBP retina that seem to level the field. I'd look at the following spec;
2.3GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 3.3GHz
16GB 1600MHz DDR3L SDRAM
256GB Flash Storage
As far as I see the MBP has;
the better USB3 sockets (a godsend when you have 64 gigs of footage to download).
More thunderbolt sockets (I could use two external monitors).
Faster RAM (1600mhz against 1333mhz).
Better screen res (although I have some questions on that).
More graphics RAM (1GB against 512mb)
So thats a lot of things that look better. Im not worried about the small 256mb HD as only the footage Im currently using will be on the MBP's HD itself.
So my questions are as follows;
How should the two units stack up against eachother performance wise when being given quite intensive tasks from Premiere Pro, After Effects and Resolve (the MBP just simply being a notebook.....the MBP having faster RAM....the iMac having a faster processor etc)?
How should the graphics compare (the iMac having a 6775 chip with 512 memory and the MBP having a 4000 chip with 1GB memory)?
How should the screens compare. The MBP obviously has a massive PPI boost but.....is the colour balancing meant to be good enough. So far I've been more than happy to use the iMac for colour grading).
Am I asking too much of the MBP to run two extra monitors when at home...?
Am I just being stupid getting rid of a desktop for a notebook as my main working computer...?
Any help that you knowledagable people can give me will be massivly appreciated...
Thank you!
Alex

I think the MBP Retina would outperform the 2011 iMac as far as CPU due to the updated Ivy Bridge processor. Since the CPU's are similar (hyper threading) the clock speed is important, but the MBP Retina can have TurboBoost of up to over 3GHz. That's faster. Remember, the iMac is still in the 2011 model. The MBP Retina is a 2012 model.
GPU Wise, the NVidia GeForce 650 outperforms the Radeon 6775. http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-GT-650M.71887.0.html. Now, the Intel HD 4000 isn't really about performance (in my opinion), so if you do get the MBP Retina, turn off automatic graphic switching.
Editing photo or video on the MBP Retina would be amazing. The display is really quite vibrant. Have you had the chance to see a MBP Retina in action? I would definitely do it, if you're serious about dropping that kind of cash.
I don't think using 2 monitors is too much to ask at all; I would love to have a triple monitor setup with coding and that sort. But I can live with one . I also think it's a great idea to use the MBP as a desktop. I currently do it, and have been since January 2011.
One other thing to add, you may want to look into a USB3 hub (with full speed), so you could hook up a large USB3 drive to store files on.

My MBP Retina shows 'Charged' but only stays at 99%.

Hello!
I just got my MBP Retina and noticed that the first two cycles, my battery status showed 'Charged' at 100%, I'm on my 4th cycle now and now it doesn't go over 99%. Has anyone else exprienced this so quick? Should I be worried about a bad battery?
Thanks

Once your Macbook is fully charged, your charger shuts off so i won't overcharge your battery.
It is also normal to see your battery level down to 99%.
Once you're down to 90% or 95%, the charging resumes until you're back to 100% again.
You've got a year warranty. Play and enjoy your new Macbook Retina.
If after a couple of months you're not happy with the way yourr battery is performing, you can always take in for service.
Another suggestion, you have a 14 day return/exchange policy. If you think it hasn't improve before the 14 days, you can take it back for a replacement.
Good luck.
