IWork '09 not ready for Retina Macbook Pro?

Just bought a 2012 Retina Display Macbook Pro... I also downloaded iWork '09... The entire suite isn't retina compatable... anyone else noticing this?
Apple, when are you going to fix this?

Go to the Pages app through finder and right click and go to "get info" (or hit command + i when the app is highlighted). Uncheck "Open in low resolution."

By the way, there is no mystery in that technology : for serious photography work (on calibrated and commonly large displays like 1920 * 1200) the best it will be able to do is to be on par with semi-pro displays currently used for retouching. On the contrary, for displaying on smartphones or tablets, the resolution factor is important.

Lack of DIY hardware upgrades for retina MacBook Pro

Can any hard-core Apple Fanboys testify that somehow built in ram on new retina MacBook Pro's is more stable than replaceable RAM modules which have come with previous models? I understand Apple's decision to move to built-in ram to make the overall computer smaller but it worries me a little not being able to replace or upgrade the RAM whenever I want to or whenever I need to. So I'm wondering if anybody can testify that built-in ram is better.

I would love it if they didn't phase it out. I just think its common sense. No one hear can say they understand apple more than the next forum member. I simply was asking if anyone here had any better technical knowledge than myself and knew for a fact that built in ram was or was not any better than sodimm. Ram
Is one of those things that us techs troubleshoot and replace often and it's a no brained that those with retina MacBooks will have to have their entire motherboard replaced if the Ram goes bad, unless apple put the ram on a separate replaceable board.

External HDD not recognized by Retina MacBook Pro

I recently bought this external HDD (http://www.amazon.com/Seagate-Backup-Desktop-External-STCA1000100/dp/B00829THK0/ ref=dp_ob_title_ce) to backup with my new retina macbook pro. It uses usb 3.0 and if I am not mistaken, the usb ports on the new macbook pro are usb 3.0.
I plug the hard drive into the wall and then into my computer. It spins and there is a light on, so I know it is powered on. Nothing shows up in finder and nothing shows up in disk utility. The box says it is compatible with macs and it works with other Macs that are not my own.
Has anyoher else had this problem? Do all usb 3.0 periphrals work with the new macbook, or only Apple's?
Please help

I had some luck with these terminal commands. The drive mounted and showed the right speed in System Profiler. I recommend copying and pasting the commands into the terminal if you're not comfortable there.
sudo mv /System/Library/Extensions/PXHCD.kext /System/Library/Extensions/PXHCD.kext.not
sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions
Reboot the system after running these commands.
I had migrated from my previous machine and had this problem. I restored it, and it worked fine. I put everything back on and started isolating. This extension seems to be from when I had installed LaCie drivers on the old machine.

Long boot time for Retina Macbook Pro 11,3 running 10.9

I have a brand new Retina Macbook Pro that used to have lightening fast startup times (~15 seconds). About a week ago, it started taking a LOOOONG time to boot up (about 3 minutes). It hangs on the apple logo with the spinning grey circle. This is after exiting out of all applications, going to system preferences and slelecting my startup disk as Macintosh HD. I have four login items (DropBox, xType, Alfred, and Clipboard History).

UPDATE:
I removed all of the login items from System Preferences -> Users and Groups -> Login Items (not just unchecked them). I should have removed them one by one and restarted the computer each time to see which was the culprit. I added them one by one, and restarted every time. So far so good. I'll update if I see a lag again.

Will InDesign/Illustrator be updated for Retina Macbook Pro Display?

Will the Adobe Creative Suite programs be updated for the MacBook Pro Retina Displays? If so, when?
I viewed text in InDesign 5.5 and Illustrator on Macbook Pro with Retina at an Apple store (with Display Performance set on High Resolution Display in InDesign) - the type looks all pixelated at edges. Much smoother on Antiglare display. I and deciding between purchase of a Macbook Pro 15-inch Hi-Res Antiglare screen and the Retina display screen. It would help in my decision if Adobe would give some indication, if or when there may be updates in Illustrator and InDesign for better type on the Retina display.

The only program we’ve heard about is Photoshop and that’s CS6.
The chances of older versions being updated are pretty much zero.

Why iMovie is not free for my macbook pro( late 2013)

I first deleted it and than i want to download it again, but i realize that iMovie is no longer free for my macbook pro( other apps, like pages, iPhoto and Garageband are still free), bt the way, my macbook pro is late 2013 version.

You're welcome.
Right the "Mac" "App" "Store". Completely different from the iTunes store and the "i" Device store.

HT5922 As far as I can tell, this article is not correct, for a MacBook Pro.

As far as I've been able to discover, on a MacBook Pro, iTunes will not send audio from a movie/video to an Airplay device. (I can do it with my iPad, but not with the MacBook). Or is there some way to get it to work?

Yes, I've gone through the troubleshooting and nothing works.
I have no problem sending music to the Airplay device, but when I play a movie, there is no option to send the audio to an airplay device (the Airplay icon disappears). There are many web pages that say this is not just me, but is the way the MacBook iTunes works (or fails to).
Strange that this got posted to the windows forum. I only commented on the article. There's nothing in the article that says it is specific to Windows.

External monitor for Retina Macbook Pro

Hello,i want to buy an external monitor for my late 2013 rMBP.I tried two models (Dell U2414H and LG 23MPQ65-P),none of them worked perfectly.On both monitors colors were washed, without contrast, the font was blurry.So i decided to return the monitors and also I sent the laptop in service for several diagnoses to see if there's something wrong with my Macbook.
I see that there are many models of external monitors that do not work correctly with rMBP.
I want an 23-27", FullHD, IPS monitor that would cost around 400$.
Can you tell me some suggestions?
Thanks.

So which input ports are best to use? I know there's ones like HDMI and DVI, so which is better to use?
Modern monitors will likely have HDMI, DVI, and/or Display Port inputs. If you use HDMI then you will not need an adapter since your computer will have a HDMI port out. You will just need a HDMI cable. If you use DVI you will need a mini display port to DVI adapter and a DVI cable. Dual Link DVI is best but you will need a mini display port to Dual Link DVI adapter and a Dual Link DVI cable. If your monitor has a Display Port input you could use that. vga will produce bad results compared to all the digital ports.
Your selection depends on the monitor you get. To get the best display resolution use what provides the monitor with video at the monitor's native resolution.
Use Google to compare the specifications of the different ports https://www.google.com/search?q=display+port+comparison+dvi+hdmi+dual+link

HT3964 My power adapter is not working, for my MacBook Pro, souloution?

I am currently living on an island in Greece, but my computer is registered in Australia.
My power adapter for my Mac book pro has stopped working, it is only 13 months old.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Try it on another MBP or try another one on your MBP (assuming you have such options available).
Here is the 'official' Apple support link:

You may very well have to purchase a new one.
Ciao.

External Hard Drives for retina Macbook Pro - Thunderbolt vs. USB 3.0

I already bought a G-Tech FireWire800/USB 3.0 external hard drive and just bought a second one.
And I just found out that USB 3.0 does not daisy chain (and the G-Tech drives only have one port each), and I also read that USB 3.0 hubs are not working well on the Mac.
I think of selling the drives again (at a loss, of course) and buying a Thunderbolt drive:
Here are the two options:
1. Western Digital:
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/890519-REG/Western_Digital_wdbusk0080jsl_n esn_8TB_My_Book_Thunderbolt.html
This drive seems to have two external hard drives. Would it be possible to use one of them as the main external hard drive, and the second one as the back-up hard drive?
2. G-Tech
G-Tech also sells Thunderbolt hard drives like this one here - but it's a RAID 0 drive - can I also use both discs separately as main drive and backup drive without using RAID 0? I just trust G-Tech more than Western Digital:
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/858463-REG/G_Technology_0G02272_8TB_G_RAID _External_Hard.html
What's your take on it?
Thanks!

The NEXT THING which is upcoming now that SSD prices are dropping is Firewire to SSD, or Thunderbolt to SSD.
Now THAT will be a "did you see that?" improvement. A few home brew folks are already making their own.
run the two discs separately as one disc for storage? Yes, I however I have never had the desire or need to setup such a daisy chain. Autonomous data storage for safety is a rule I live by.
Backup VS. storage, is really a distinction without a difference.
My main PDF collection is 14 Terabytes, so............... Yes, it depends on what you need, just remember the religion of storage, 2 copies is 1, and one is NONE.
Never consider any computer a data storage device, rather a data creation ,sending, and manipulation device. Any who thinks any data is safe on any computer, even copied upon multiple partitions is making a mistake
Never backup your data exclusively upon magnetic hard drives or flash storage, nor consider same since magnetic storage degrades over time even under ideal conditions
burn important data onto multiple copies of archival DVDs and store same in cool dark fireproof safes, hidden places, secret places, multiple places
always consider and expect thy computer’s hard drive to completely crash anytime, at all times, and keep a cloned and updated hard drive handy at all times to return to immediate productivity and avoid program and parameter reinstallation and tweaking

HT1338 thunderbolt to gigabit update for retina macbook pro

Still only getting 100mbs through tis connector. Any updates yet?

The only Thunderbolt display I'm aware of is Apple's. However, the Thunderbolt port on your MBP is also a mini-displayport and that is the normal way of connecting an external display to your MBP. You therefore need a mini-displayport to whatever you need on the TV end, e.g. HDMI. Apple have a good selection of cables on their online store.

I'm a normal user, using cad programme, not using my laptop for games, my question is: do I need to get 16 gb ram in my retina macbook pro or 8 gb ram is pretty enough?

Thanks for support.

8 GB may be sufficient for CAD but 16 would be a much better idea.
All the Macs I have ever owned were eventually upgraded to the maximum amount of memory they could use. Considering that as of now, the RAM you specify is all the RAM you will ever have, get as much as you can. That is the only way to maximize its economic life.
If Apple offered a 32 GB version I'd get it.

Can I change a new battery for my MacBook Pro 15' Retina? How?

Can I change a new battery for my MacBook Pro 15' Retina? How?

Hi!
About a month ago, my MBPr 15", mid 2012 (Model Identifier10,1) showed, at first, Battery Service warning and on the next day X over the battery icon with Battery Not Available message in the status. MBP would run only and while the charger was plugged in, plug led would be always green, when connected. Battery test third party sw would not detect the battery, any longer.
Replacing upper case with battery/keyboard/trackpad, as per Apple, in my country was too expensive, over 1000 USD, did't make any sense to me, so I've chosen DIY option (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLhHSIej9fs) with all necessary precautions like tools, ESD protection grounded pad in place and ordered "new" replacement battery from Hong Kong on Ebay (http://www.ebay.com/itm/400699766989?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STR K%3AMEBIDX%3AIT).
Yesterday I came in new packing/sealed, I installed it, plugged the power cable on, plug led would turn green and then orange, I thought it's ok, but once system booted, I saw again X over battery icon and "Battery Not Available". I checked all the hints on internet, tried several times SMC and EPRON resets, no success. I filed complaint to Ebay supplier, he replied that battery undergone test prior the shipment, but ready for return and refund.
So, I can make another try and buy the battery from Ebay but what if the problem is with my logic board? From one hand charger plug led lights orange when connected to MBP, on another hand System doesn't see the battery at all: No battery in the System info/Hardware/Power. it works absolutely fine when plugged-in to charger. I ran extended AHT (over pressed "D" key while powering on) twice with No Problem in return. So, my question is does it ultimately mean that Logic Board and power circuits are all fine and the whole thing is about "new bad" battery? I there any way to entirely test Logic board and narrow down problem origin?
Thank you for attention in advance,
Nurlan
