IMac retina base model 5 months in thoughts?

Hi, was just wondering what iMac retina owners think of their machine now that they have had it for a few months?
Would love to hear from people who own the base model and brought it around the time of release.
I'm in the market for one and have read a lot on the internet about lag and how the base GPU doesn't cut it.
Is the base model worth it or is the i7 and 4GB ram essentially for a smooth experience?

I too am in the market, in fact I expect to get my Retina this Monday. I will be using mine for editing photographs as I am into Photography. High end Canon and some video with same. I don't really thing that unless you are using it for professional video work or heavy multitasking that you need to go with the 4 Gig Video card, or the i7. I went with the standard unit with 16 gig of ram. thats it. Hope this helps.

Should I get a MacBook Pro non retina upgraded or retina base model?

Hi I am looking to buy a MacBook Pro non retina or retina model, I have a budget so I would buy the non retina i7 with 4gb of ram and upgrade to 8 later or buy the retina model with no upgrades and not being able to upgrade it later on... I might be playing a bit of games like skyrim oblivion gta maybe other stuff downloading music and movies ... Please help me decide thanks.
MacBook Pro

You're most welcome, Bacon.
I know you'll love your new MBP.
This is my 2nd, and they're just wonderful.

I am deciding whether to get the macbook pro retina (base model) or the fully customized macbook air. Opinions on which one I should get?

I am trading in my 2009 macbook pro so now I am trying to pick the one I want. I stream a lot of movies and tv shows off of netflix but otherwise I'm just an average computer user.

Cores and speed ...
Multiply cores by the speed to get "maximum therotical processing power". Example:
2.8 dual = 5.6 max
2.2 quad = 8.8 max
Plus quad-core usually have hyper-threading which can double that maximum speed. And quad-core systems have slightly faster internal caches and other memory buses.
In theory. Usually even the heaviest programs will not max out, but it will have a higher maximum.
If you can afford the quad-core, it gives a bit longer usable life.

Does iMac Retina still has a GPS sensor?

Hello!
Recently (2 weeks ago) have purchased iMac Retina (base config). I wonder if it still has a GPS sensor.
My software cannot get a location data in ANY way. Nor maps, nor clock, nor Google Chrome, not Safari.
Yes - I did check security overrides. Each of this program is allowed to have access to GPS data. Still, there is no even a NOTIFICATION that any of this applications even requested GPS location last 24 hours

No, Kappy is correct. No iMac has ever had a GPS radio. The time, date, and time zone is completely different from GPS. Time and date are obtained from a time server and there are number of time servers around the world. Since desktop PCs don’t have GPS they get their location by using a database of WiFi routers to determine an approximate location. That’s why you have to have WiFi turned on.
To turn on Location Services on your Mac...

I just bought a new late 2013 27" iMac base model from the Apple Store.

Hi, I just recently purchased the new late 2013 27" iMac from the Apple store, base model that is $1999.00. This is my very first iMac and I was wondering if this is a good first time iMac users PC? My wife will be mainly composing music on it. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Yes, it's perfect. FWIW, next time you plan to buy a computer ask this question before you purchase it, not after.

Although I turned off WiFi, set as 'require admin password to turn on and off wifi, when I turn on my MacBook Pro, retina latest model, just got for a month, it turns on wifi automatically, is this a back door or virus or security hole? Thank you

I have my all networks at 'Off' status in the system panel, never use Bluetooth either, also in the top status bar, and set as 'require admin password to turn on and off WiFi', but when I turn on my MacBookPro 15" retina newest model only one month old, it goes on to WiFi automatically by itself.
Is this a back door? Security hole?
The other day, I was taking a break for five minutes, when I came back, the Microsoft outlook is open for setting up an account, I never use outlook, it is there only because it comes with the office package. Also, iTunes was playing music, I don't use iTunes when I'm working. Both were not on before I left for the break.
What is the problem?

I am considering a base 21" iMac ($1099 @ Best Buy) for home use. It would be my first Mac. Is the base model powerful enough for everyday home use and some light video editing or should I upgrade the CPU, Ram and to a Fusion drive?

Purchasing with the upgrades through Apple would add about $800 over the Black Friday deal at Best Buy. Just looking for some advice if I will be satisfied with the based model.

All models will do what you want. Upgraded models will do it faster than the standard models.
Just why are you thinking of switching to a Mac?

New MBP w/ Retina Display (base model). Upgrading to 16gb worth the added cost?

I plan to purchase the new MBP w/ RD (base model), but not sure if I should upgrade to 16gb of ram.
I know this is all based on the user, so here is some info to help with making suggestions:
In addition to basic computer use, I plan to do some semi-enthusiast level gaming and video editing via iMovie (no hardcore PS or FC Pro). When I say semi-ethusiast, I mean Diablo 3-type gaming.
Something tells me 8gb is more than enough to satisfy my needs, however, there is this side of me that's saying "UPGRADE!!"... I mean, 3rd gen i7 processor + SSD (from Samsung?) + latest nvidia GT 650M + 8gb DDR3L @1600mhz working in concert seems like a sweet combination to me...
I'm sure these Xgb vs. XXgb debate have been ongoing forever now, but if anyone can shed some additional light to help guide me into making the right purchase decision, I would greatly appreciate it.

Only you can answer that question.
Myself however, i would go with the MAX on the RAM since it's not user upgradeable.
You might need it in the future, then again, you might not.
Rule of thumb, better safe than sorry....
Spend the extra $$$ for the extra RAM if i were in your shoes.

IMac Retina has started shutting down several times a day, generating a "Panic Report".

Although I have had a new iMac Retina since October, it is only within the past few weeks that I have started trying to use it for most purposes. Initially, it seemed to be working OK. But during the past week, it has started to do peculiar things, such as:
1. Now, several times a day, it shuts down unexpectedly. When I boot it back up, it displays a message saying that it was shut down because of a problem. Then, when I click on the window for a report of the problem, it generates a long “Panic Report”.
2. When it boots back up, it automatically opens several windows that I did not have open when it shut down — Safari, Firefox, Excel, Word, etc.
3. I have 2 external 1gb drives connected for data, and 2 external 4gb drives connected for Time Machine backups. All of the drives have been formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled). However, although Finder originally showed all 4 of those drives, Finder now always omits a particular one of the 1gb drives. Yet, iDrive and Time Machine continue to recognize all 4 drives.
4. Several times over the past week, it suddenly popped up a “Jabber" window containing a long transcript of a series of iPhone texts that I exchanged in January. However, I never installed Jabber (to my knowledge), and it doesn’t show as currently installed on any of my devices.
I just ran EtreCheck, and this is the report:

IMac Retina keeps crashing

Hey guys,
I purchased a iMac retina last week and noticed it keeps crashing. It crashes at least once a day compared to the macbook I had that never seemed to crash. At first it crashed when woken from sleep from a few hours so I turned off putting the computer to sleep when display is inactive.
This is the error report I had this morning.

Hey,
Yes I installed them side by side as in the new paid at the top two slots and then the installed ram below it. When I remove them installed RAM how do I test it again? This was from a crash report.

IMac Retina maximum resolution is it really 5 K ????

I currently own an iMac 27 inches 2011.
Since my pictures are 36 Mpx, I thought it would be nice to upgrade to the Retina new model.
iMac 2011 resolution is 2560 x 1440 which is 3,686,400 pixels
iMac Retina is 5120 x 2880 which is 14,745,600 pixels
So the new iMac has a resolution that is 4 times the one from my iMac 2011
So I should be able to see 4 times more pixels than before when I display
a large image at 100%.
So this afternoon I went to the Apple store with my sample.
A JPG picture 7360 x 4912 pixels = 36,152,320 pixels.
I had 2 iMac side by side. One non Retina and the new Retina.
The new Retina was set at the maximum resolution.
We launched Preview on both iMac and selected Actual size on both machines.
The new iMac offered a little bit more image like 30% more but certainly not 4 times !
I had 5 Apple store staffs around me who did not know what to say.
They acknowledged their was a problem and explained to me this was linked to the software.
Stupid answer. As if the screen resolution was dictated by Aperture or iPhoto...
To please them we tried both software and got same results...
So my question is simple.
With a screen offering 4 times more pixels, shouldn't I expect to see 4 times more
data from a picture displayed at full resolution ?
Thanks
Thierry

depend on the program in question various image programs start with various different settings in terms of best fit zoom or the likes
1 to 1 pixel display is an option in some such programs

Brand new imac Retina and can't enter Apple Diagnostics. Doing it wrong?

I've had various issues with my brand new imac retina. I've spoken with Apple Care about two of them (Finder icon issue; slow shut down) and we're working through it all trying to figure out if it's software and whether the current beta update will solve the problem when it comes out. They've extended their 14 day exchange to 60 days for me while we sort it out.
All said, one thing they suggested was to run the Apple Diagnostics by holding down D upon booting. I've tried running this, it comes to a screen wanting me to pick the language, and nothing happens. It's like it doesn't do anything upon picking the language, just sits there.
The Sr. Tech I was talking with just said "that's strange" but with other things we were discussing he went about focusing on the other things.
I may try yet another separate call to discuss this with them but I thought I'd check here to see if anyone has encountered/solved this issue, see if I'm going about it the wrong way.
I'm holding down D and I'm connected by ethernet. This is the new imac retina 5k, 2014.
Thanks.

That's might nice of Apple. Personally, I would not be sorting anything out on a brand new Mac. I would be demanding a brand new replacement. One that is suppose to work rigiht out the box.

The techs wanted you to run Apple's Hardware Test. See KB Article: Using Apple Hardware Test - Apple Support
Thanks.

Traffic light on the basis of last month

Hi guys,
I have a question about the traffic light in the model Visual Composer. I would like to have a traffic light besids a table or graphic that wil be shown the status ( Green, red, yellow!) on the basis of the last month. In the table or in a graphic wil be shown several data of several months. But the traffic light have to respond on the basis of last month. That means that, if the last month exception( in the query) is green, the traffic light also wil be green.
Can anybody help me please?
Another question.
How can i get only two types of order as example in a pie chart? I have seen that in a pie chart you can only add one formula, not two.So!!
Thanks,
Regards,
Esrat

In the VC model create an Expression Box. Double click on this box to open up its Properties.
In the control properties window there is tab "Styles", here give Green color to the column 'Style' and in the next column 'Condition' select 'Enter Formula...'
Select the field and enter the condition.
Like
Style      Condition
Style 1   @CITY == 'Frankfurt'
Style2    @BANK_CTRY == 'DE'

Performance problems with Photoshop CC 2014 in combination with the imac retina 5k

Hello,
I've been using the new imac retina, and i have enormous problems with the performance of Photoshop. If i for example use the selective color correction, this does not run smoothly. Other functions also work delayed. I noticed if i do not use Photoshop in full screen mode, everything goes back to normal. A friend used the predecessor model imac without 5k resolution, but has no problems. I suspect Photoshop has problems with the resolution of 5k.
Anyone here who has the same problem?
Specs:
4GHz Intel Core i7
24 GB RAM
AMD Radeon R9 2048MB
Photoshop CC 2014.2.2
Thanks for help
greetings Manuel

I hope Adobe fixed this problems with the next updates! With this terrible performance i cannot work. I actually just bought the new iMac Retina, because my old model was too slow... and now the Photoshop Performance is slower than on my old iMac. I have read that other users who have also a 5k iMac, report on same problems. So i hope that a update or a solution for this problems come very quickly!

IMac retina base model 5 months in thoughts?
