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 MacBook Pro Retina (2,3 GHz Intel Core i7 - 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 - Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB). I use KompoZer for my website, but after installing OS X Yosemite it doesn't work right (I cannot see images in the website).

It's beta open source software so I'm not surprised. It does't look to be too active a project, so I don't know if it will help or not but you might be maybe better off posting a bug report on their Sourceforge page here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/kompozer/

I suggets you contact the manufacturer. They may have a software update or a workaround.

I have a Macbook Pro Retina Display and it keeps flickering. Very annoying. Almost seems like something else is trying to open.

My macbook has suddenly started flickering. I hadn't updated any software. I did go and update to OS X but that didn't help. Is anyone else having the same problem?

MacBook Pro Retina display with scratch/crack in the glass

Hi,
Can it be real, that on my new MacBook Pro Retina display I have a little scratch/crack in the glass out of the box?
You can only see it if you have light (e.g withe) background on the display.
I hope Apple Care will replace it.
Does anybody else have the same issue?
Regards,
JO

When I bought my iMac and took it home and set it up, I was cleaning the screen and noticed what looked like smears on the inside of the glass. I took a picture of it with my iphone and went back to the apple store. Of course the genuis could not see it in the brightly lit store, so I showed her the picture. I also took a little flash light with me and she was then able to see the marks. She thought they looked like fingerprints under the glass. They swapped out the iMac right there for a new one.

Macbook Pro Retina Display Disk is locked

Hi,
I have a macbook pro retina display with mountain lion 10.8.1.
Today I shutdown my machine and now when I try to turn it on it goes to a progress bar and spinning and it just turns off itself. I have tried recovery mode and it turns out the disk needs repair and after repair it says it can't be repaired and it should be reformat again. I've tried safe mode but it keeps doing the progress bar and spinning and it turns off again.
I don't know what happened to the machine it was on my desk all the time and it has flash storage so no failing in hard disk and bad sector.
What should I do? (I don't have a external hard drive with GUID to install ML on it and see if I can open my Macintosh HD. And I don't have a Time Machine backup).

Do you have any backups? If the answer is no, you've quite possibly lost all your data.

Macbook Pro Retina Display & Adobe programs are pixelated

Hi. I just purchased a new Macbook Pro Retina Display and have installed CS 5.5 Design Standards to it. When I open the programs (any program: inDesign, Photoshop, etc), the image is pixelated and in low resolution. When I export what I'm working on it looks crisp and great but the software itself is pixelated. Are there any upgrades / updates for CS 5.5 that will fix this problem? Or will there be in the future? I cannot afford to get CS 6 quite yet and am wondering if I should return my Mac and downgrade to get rid of the retina display?? Thanks.

To get Retina support, you'll have to upgrade to CS6 or join the Adobe Creative Cloud.
https://creativecloud-specialoffer.adobe.com/special-offer/
Retina support arrive in Photoshop CS6 (13.0.1 and Cloud 13.1). It will not be added to CS5.5

10.1 macbook pro retina display sticks sometimes

Hello community of apple.
I have a macbook pro retina display 15 inch 10.1 does no more than three weeks.
when I use the computer for the day to day operating system feel pasted.
example: when I have a program in full screen and then I want to see a program on the desktop using the keyboard ... usually stick a little.
Also when I want to maximize and minimize a program gets too slow.
This seems really strange, because the computer is an i7 and has a fairly large graphics card.
regards

any ideas?

Macbook pro retina display working slow

Yesterday, I woke up the macbook pro from sleep mode and i had several apps opened.
Then when i did the mission control it was working very slowly. All the gestures of the track pad were working slowly.
Then after a while it started to freeze. So I restart the laptop, but the problem did not solved.
Its working slow, and its been almost 15 days from the day i bought the laptop.
I have a macbook pro retina display 15" 16gb ram and 512gb flash storage.
Please Help me!!

My retina MacBook Pro has had terrible graphics performance problems for a couple of weeks. I searched all over various forums and tried everything: resetting SCM, manually selecting discrete/integrated graphics card, deleting graphics kexts, etc. Nothing helped until I found this: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19880198#19880198
Now my rMBP has silky smooth graphics again!
The directions in that post are a little hard to understand so I cleaned them up here:
Step 1: Delete system windowserver preferences
In the Finder, from the menu bar, select "Go -> Go to Folder..."
Enter: /Library/Preferences/
Delete the file called com.apple.windowserver.plist
Step 2: Delete user windowserver preferences
In the Finder, from the menu bar, select "Go -> Go to Folder..."
Enter: ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/
Delete all files that start with com.apple.windowserver (On my rMBP, there was one file called com.apple.windowserver.12AFB147-95D6-5C70-8F62-C1E4F2BE81BE)
Step 3: Reset the PRAM
(These instructions are from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379)
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
Hopefully this helps others with bad graphics performance on retina MacBook Pros.
For anyone that wants to check out the problematic plists from my rMBP, here are the files:

Macbook pro retina display 15 inch ram upgrade with apple care

hi,
I have a early 2013 Macbook Pro Retina Display 15 inch.
Doing some research, i do realized that RAMs are not upgradeable due to being embedded to motherboard.
I was hoping if there any chance to upgrade my RAM from 8 gb to 16 gb through Apple Care that i currently have.
I would love to hear back any feed backs on any possible way to upgrade your RAMS in MPR 15 inch.
thank you much!!!

thumbmania,
It's impossible for anyone - Apple included - to upgrade the RAM on a Retina MacBook Pro. With those machines, you have to live with what you originally purchased.
Sorry,
Clinton

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...
