Is there a way to upgrade a MacBook Pro 15" Retina Display (Model ID:MacBookPro10,1) for thunderbolt 2 capability?

Im just wondering if there is a way to upgrade an older machine to allow thunderbolt 2.
This might be a silly question as I can't seem to find anything about it anywhere.
I may just have to buy a new machine but it would be great if I could just upgrade the one I have.
Any information would be appreciated.

You would have to purchase a new machine in order to gain Thunderbolt 2 capabilities.

  • I am thinking of getting my first Macbook pro for uni and was just wondering which one would be the best? The macbook pro or macbook pro with retina display? or even wait for the new release in 2013 ?

    If your budget is unlimited, look at both the retina and non-retina and make a decision based on your preferences.  If funds are tight, explore the options in the refurbished section.  Unless you are dealing with courses that demand specific performance parameters, any one of these options will suffice.

  • 13" Haswell MacBook Pro with Retina Display overheats and speakers fail.

         I have the new 13" Haswell MacBook Pro with Retina Display. Have had it for a week and a half now and ever since I got it the speakers have failed completely many times. They start to crackle then stop completely. The speakers just don't respond. I have tried turning my volume all the way up, playing a song and nothing works. I have to restart or shut down the computer before it works again. My other concern is that the computer overheats too much. I am streaming Netflix or watching a YouTube video and it gets really hot. I am afraid of setting my house on fire if I dare to download a game on the MacBook. I am really concerned about the speakers more than the overheating. Is anyone else having this problem or do I just have a bad device? I think I might return it. Please help.

    Contact Apple using www.apple.com/support/contact if you are in a country that supports it or call the appropriate phone number on this page. Alternatively carry the MacBook Pro in to an Apple retail store or service provider.

  • Macbook pro with retina display ram

    can i self upgrade my macbook pro with retina display ram?

    To answer a little more directly - no. RAM on the Retinas is not connected through standared SODIMM slots, but connected directly to the logic board.

  • Is there a way to digitize audio using the headphone input on the 15-inch (late 2013) Macbook Pro with Retina display?

    I'd like to digitize audio from a minidisc player into my 15-inch (late 2013) Macbook Pro with retina display, but can't see a way to change the internal mic input.  I understand that previous MacBooks allowed the headphone jack to double as a mic input, but mine doesn't seem capable of switching.  I've tried using a mini to mini cable, with no luck, and also tried using a headset splitter adapter (3.5 mm 4-pin to 2x3-pin 3.5 mm headset splitter adapter from Amazon) because I read that that would allow me to plug in headphones and input audio.  But in both cases, the only "input" available in my sound preferences is the built-in internal microphone.  Am I missing something?  Is there a way to digitize audio through the headphone jack? 

    Not likely. headphone jacks are usually output only devices unless specifically stated to support input, and even then, it may not be audio input that they support, but merely control input for volume and such.
    You can get a USB audio input instead. i.e:

  • Is there a way to stream my macbook pro audio through itunes to basestation

    Hey I love to stream my itunes through the basestation but, is there a way to stream my macbook pros audio so I can hear things playing from my safari or final cut or whatever other program to the speakers in airport??? Thanks

    Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil should do just what you want. I use if for streaming things like Slacker and Pandora through my Airport Express. It's not free but it's well worth the price. You can try it out for a few minutes (then the sound degrades) to see if it works for you.

  • Upgrade apple Macbook pro with retina

    Hi, i alredy know that the ram and the flash storage are soldered to the board in the new macbook pro with retina display but i just wondering if i go to an apple store could they send my macbook pro to apple and upgrade the ram and the flash storage and then send me back??? I alredy bought it an it cost me a lot but now i have the money to upgrade the ram and flash storage can i do it that way??

    I'd rather suggest: Call Apple or take an appointment and walk into he store. They can't just turn you back. Apple can give you an upgrade even though the RAM in soldered in. They do it for the iPad all the time, tap hey simply take your unit and give you anothe and you pay e difference. They use stock that is different from the retail packages nd may run out from time to time but I don't believe you are stock with it. At the worst, you may pays bit more than the initial upgrade cost and be sure to backup before you go.
