Lag on macbook pro retina 13

I have a macbook pro retina 13' late 2012. I'm expecting lag issues with safari(and others browsers) when the webs are plenty of photos/videos. I'm expecting no issues with older macbooks. Is this usual? The same happens using Dreamweaver (scrolling), with some PDFs...

Try resetting your SMC.
Erase and Reinstall OS X
Note: This will delete all data on the disk. Back up important files before continuing.
Erasing and then reinstalling OS X can give you a fresh start, making your computer exactly as it was whenever you received it from Apple. This can solve various problems such as corrupt system files.
Shut down the computer by going to Apple () > Shut Down…
Select Shut Down or allow the computer to shut down automatically.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter into a power source and then connect it to your Mac if you have not already done so.
Press the Power Button to turn on the computer.
Press and hold both the R and Command (⌘) keys on the keyboard until the Recovery partition loads.
Select Disk Utility and then choose Continue.
Select your startup disk (Macintosh HD by default) from the left.
Select the Erase tab.
Choose the Format pop-up menu and choose Mac OS Extended (Journaled), enter a name for your disk, and then click Erase.
After the disk is erased, choose Disk Utility > Quit Disk Utility.
Select Reinstall OS X and then choose Continue.
Follow the instructions.
I hope I helped.

  • Photoshop cs6 lags on macbook pro retina 15'

    Recently I got my hands on photoshop cs6 but my brush lags quite a bit while using it. This happens when I'm zooming in to do minor details or if I'm using a brush more than 200
    I've heard good things about design production on macbooks but so far I've seen the opposite. Is there anyway to solve the brush lag problem from Apple's end?

    I am using a student version which is running atm on a windows 7 64 bit macbook pro retina 15. The best thing i can try doing is downgrade to CS5. Though i'm positively sure if I installed photoshop less than a few weeks ago, it would be at the latest...

  • Macbook Pro Retina 15" is lagging when it shouldn't be

    Problem description:
    Macbook Pro 15” Retina is lagging really badly, when it really shouldn’t be. Running Safari, Mail, Calendar, Messages, iTunes, Spotify, uTorrent, and a League of Legends installer. With the 2.0 i7 Quad Core and the 8 GB of RAM, I don’t see why this is happening.

  • Macbook Pro Retina 13" late 2013 lag

    Hello everybody,
    4 days ago i bought Macbook Pro Retina 13" late 2013. overall i like it as a first time mac user.
    my problem is it feels very slow and unstable and laggy.
    After some testing:
    1024x640 (Larfer Text) - no lag best performance
    1280x800 (Best for Retina) - some lag
    1440x900 (Middle) - Some lag
    1680x1050 (More space) - Lots of lag
    The lag is most visible when scrolling, resizing the window, and overall performance of third party applications for example netBeans is very slow under highest resolution and even with best for retina.
    But what is interesting is when i conect the macbook pro to an external tv using hdmi there is no lag, very smoth.
    I have contact apple support couple of times since i get the device, i even went to the apple store genius bar., all their representative in the apple store pretended that everything is ok with the mac, but some phone representative agreed with me that i have to lower the resolution when using some applications. basically there is no solution for the lag.
    i am very disappointed with this issue. I should be able to use any resolution I want without any lag. 
    sometimes i can not feel the fast SSD it feels like an old HDD.
    I think its unacceptable to pay $1500 for a computer that doesn't work as advertised
    I think i am going to return it until they find a solution
    Are you experiencing this problems with your macbook pro retina

    Here is my post on another Forum. My problem with the UI is now solved :
    hi there,
    same problem here. i had a mba 13" 2012 and wanted to switch to rmbp 13 because i need more real estate.
    i sold the mba on ebay, but had a few days to compare my rmbp and mba side by side. both with exactly the same software configuration and OS Mavericks.
    the mba was obviously snappier and i didn't know why.
    after reading tons of threads, exchanging the rmbp one time and being frustrated i discovered this thread.
    so i downloaded RDM, set the resolution to 1680x1050 (non-high-dpi!!!) and there it is, a snappy rmbp with mavericks.
    (for me real estate is more import than a shiny retina thinggy, but also i don't see a bit difference between 1680 hiDPI and 1680 "normal")
    i suspect the os isn't yet optimized, but i am far away from a software expert.
    here is the link for RDM:

  • Macbook pro retina external monitor mouse skipping, lag problem

    When I plug my macbook pro retina (Lion) into a 24" monitor through the DVI adaptor, the cursor jumps erratically every ~10 seconds when being moved. Feels like a lag and is worse with more programs running. Does not depend on mouse or mouse surface. Trackpad does it too. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    Hi AO1 James,
    If I understand correctly, the external monitor was blurry from the moment you plugged it into your MacBook Pro with Retina display. I would first check the resolution settings for the monitor with the "How do I select additional resolutions on my display?" section of the following article:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
    If it remains blurry after selecting your monitors optimal resolution, I would use the steps under the "Reset the system" section of the article to help troubleshoot the issue.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • Macbook pro retina haswell 13 lag using (Photoshop)

    Hi ALL,
    MY macbook pro retina display haswell (13 in) lags while using Adobe Photoshop CC (V 14.1.2 x64). I have no other applications open except photoshop. Is this normal for this model? i was told by apple that photoshop would not lag when editing. I was editing a 4 mb file . Moving the file and using brush causes lag.
    Any solution?
    Macbook pro retina 13 specs:
    Processor  2.4 GHz Intel Core i5
    Memory  8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  Intel Iris 1024 MB
    Software  OS X 10.9
    HDD           256gb ssd

    Sorry for the double post, but I can't find an edit button and I recently found a solution to this issue in a discussion on the Photoshop forums.
    http://www.versluis.com/2013/08/how-to-fix-brush-lag-in-photoshop-cc/
    Basically, Photoshop CC has a setting for how it uses the on board graphics for drawing.
    Preferences->Performance->Advanced Settings
    Set drawing mode to Basic (the default is Advanced)
    Close Photoshop (like really close it -> Command+Q it!)  As a new Mac user, I was confused by this step...  I thought the little red X would close the program.  Luckily a co-worker who was helping me with this issue pointed out that I wasn't actually closing the program.
    Restart Photoshop.  This fixed the lag I was experiencing.

  • Macbook pro retina 2014 13" lag

    Hi guys,
    I've recently purchased a new Macbook pro retina 13" 2014 model with 8gb ram and a 256ssd. I have noticed that it lags quite a bit.
    When the login spashscreen is displayed with its animation, it lags there (like there isn't a proper graphics card) also when scrolling webpages in chrome, safari and firefox.
    The demo I had looked at in the store was all sweet. Is there something i should be looking at? i'm running maverick, will be upgrading to yosimite tomorrow (hopefully)
    What would you guys suggest/recommend? Should i be concerned?
    Thank you

    Hello,
    I just bought a new Macbook Pro OSX Yosemite this week. Retina, 15 inch, Mid 2014. 2.2 GHz i7. 16GB RAM. 256 GB HD. I've been noticing a lag when I use the trackpad and the bluetooth mighty mouse. It seems to happen completely randomly. If I don't use my computer for a long time and then start to use it again it sometimes lags for a second and then works, and then lags again, and on and on...
    Sometimes the lags are 2 seconds long and sometimes they're less than 1 second long. It seems my mouse, trackpad AND keyboard are all affected by this problem. I'm pretty upset, seeing as how I paid over 2 grand for this computer. Does anybody have ANY idea at all what is causing this AND what I can do about it?? I'm not a huge computer guy.
    The problem doesn't seem big enough to get a whole new computer. It seems like an Apple technician could fix this in 2 seconds. Wouldn't you agree? Please help. Thanks

  • MacBook Pro Retina Late 2013 UI Lag after installing Yosemite

    Hey everyone,
    Ok so my Issue here, and I think I'm not the only one but my MacBook pro retina late 2013 (8GB ram, 256gb SSD) has been experiencing numerous issues after installing Yosemite. For example, the UI lag is at times horrible; after opening several apps, and especially after having a pdf or two open in preview everything becomes so sluggish. the animation of switching to mission control is painstakingly slow, and opening new tabs in safari takes 2 or 3 seconds. I've done a clean install of yosemite but nothing seems to help, what should I do; just revert back to mavericks and cross my finger for a future update?
    Any help would be much appreciated, thanks so much !

    i am in the same situation as you, late 2013 retina MacBook Pro 15 inch upgraded to yosemite and then clean installed yosemite b/c of UI lag after opening several apps at once... I found that yosemite drained my battery life too, on mavericks i was getting 5-8 hrs of battery life, on yosemite i was getting like 2-3 hrs most.
    After exhausting every option out there (apple store genius bar help, apple repair, etc), I came to the consensus that my macbook had no hardware problems at all, it's basically a software problem on apple's end.  and until they update yosemite with a specific fix for the UI lag and the battery consumption problems, i am not going back to yosmemite. 
    what i did was clean installed back to mavericks... this solved every one of my problems, NO LAG, NO BATTERY ISSUES, back to buttery smooth performance, of course without the new UI however... but i can live without new design
    this experience tells me several things: 1. the new apple under the leadership of cook is slowly but surely sacrificing quality of software for unnecessary updates(sales) 2. mac hardware is still good but who knows for how much longer

  • Mac os x yosemite 10.10.1 still lags and bugs while using macbook pro retina 13inch i5 mid 2014

    i just got macbook pro retina and i upgraded to yosemite 10.10.1 its still have bugs and lags a lot , does anybody feel the same ,
    its not smooth at all ..

    Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
    1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
        b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    4. Reinstall Yosemite: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.
    5. Reinstall Yosemite from Scratch:
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.

  • Photoshop CS6 performance on new Macbook Pro Retina Late 2013

    Hi guys,
    Just bought the new 13" Macbook Pro Retina Late 2013 with 8GB RAM and 256SSD.
    Installed CS6 with all patches and retina update but performance is appaling. Im editing a Nikon D800 file which I know is heavy, but when zoomed in at 100% and using the healing brush it is unusable. There is so much lag on the brush it takes a second after i lift my pen for the stroke to be finishes.
    Happening in Scaled & Best for Retina screen modes.
    My 2005 Core 2 Duo laptop with 4GB of ram and windows 7 did this without hiccups, so I cant believe this brand new laptop cant do it.
    Any ideas? Its really unusable now.

    Dick,
    If you downloaded and installed the latest Mac OS X driver, it will not work with your Intuos2 tablet.  If you OS X is 10.6+, here are driver directions to follow for a clean install and a link to the last driver:
    Open your Applications folder and locate any Tablet or Wacom Tablet folders you have
    Use the Utility in each of these folders and click ‘Remove’ under ‘Tablet Software’
    Once the software is removed, restart the computer
    After restarting, download and install the latest 6.20 driver from:http://cdn.wacom.com/U/drivers/mac/pro/WacomTablet_6.2.0w4.dmg
    As always, make sure your tablet is connected directly to your computer.
    Avoid using USB hubs, keyboard/monitor ports, or docking stations with the tablets, as they can cause inconsistent behavior.

  • LG Screen on Macbook pro retina late 2014

    I had a previous retina macbook pro with samsung screen. Just bought the newly release Late 2014 Macbook pro retina 15' model. I found that this new one has LG Screen. Are they still bad and do they still have image burn-in issues.
    Should i take it back to apple store.
    Madan

    Just ordered a Retina MacBook Pro11,2 (mid-2014 15", 2.2GHz Intel Core i7, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, OSX 10.9.4 Pre-installed - Build 13E28)  and have the exact same issue.  The first thing I did when i booted it for the first time was enable FileValut2 and encrypt the disk.  Though I failed to notice this behavior prior to encrypting the disk, the stuttering/lag happens without fail every time I have logged in from a cold boot, locked screen or sleep. Additionally I have noticed the same stuttering behavior when switching tabs on various built-in OSX applications such as the tabs on the About This Mac > More Info.... (System Information) dialog for example, and similarly other dialogs that experience this behavior of resizing when switching tabs. I was running no other software than About This Mac > More Info ... (System Information) and OSX 10.9.4 itself.  The issue happens without fail with and without a USB mouse plugged in.
    I am really glad to have found this thread and with such recent posts.  I'd love to find out that this is just a software bug that will be fixed when OSX 10.10 "Yosemite" is released.  If not, I hope the cause of this bug is determined soon so I can still exchange or have it repaired.
    Migflono and Matthew, would you be able to post your hardware specs for comparison?
