Late 2013 13' rMBP, Apple uses DDR3 instead of DDR3L?

Hi guys,
Just bought my late 2013 13' rMBP 8g,256 week ago and had 10 times freezes (the first one was in front of an apple employee during the first time initial setup). That's a well known bug so just wait for the updates. The thing is after I browsed my Mac's memory spec it shows Two of the 4g are DDR3, NOT the DDR3L. Do you guys think Apple uses DDR 3 instead of DDR 3L? Or just the stupid mavericks can not recognize DDR 3L memory?
Cheers,
H

Hi mate,
Let's make it clear so hope anyone could help us!

Have Memory DDR3 instead of DDR3L, Mbp late 2013, 13" is this OK?

Have Memory DDR3 instead of DDR3L, Mbp late 2013, 13" is this OK

As long as all of the specifications are the same, there should be no problems. The DDR3L just stands for Low-Voltage. Pop it in and see if it boots up. Worst that can happen is it doesn't boot. Then you just pull it out and put the old RAM back in. It should work, though.

Late 2013 15" rMBP fan noise even on 2D games

Hello,
I have the latest model Apple Macbook Pro 15" with retina display. I'm using the basic model with 8gb ram, 256gb ssd, Haswell i7 cpu with integraded Intel Iris Pro 1gb gpu.
The problem is about the fans. I have never played a game on my mac before two months ago. Since then, when I play the fans get noisy and in a few minutes they start to spin at max rpm about 6000.
I have talked to Apple Customer service and they made me do it sth. like SMC, PRAM etc. However, it didn't fix anything, then I handle my mac to the nearest Apple Store.
They cleaned it and checked the system, according to their said the system works fine. I got it back today and whenever I came, I tried and it happened again.
Just for an instance, I launched "Bridge Constructer Free" game and wait for about 3 minutes. After all, the fans were spinning at over 6000 rpm but meanwhile the system was not hot, it was a bit cool, just about 45 celcius degree.
On the other tasks, like web surfing, playing a full HD video or daily things, it works perfect. I've never heard the fan noise and feel the heat. Otherwise, on nearly every game I played, it happened. Although the system is under 50 celcius degree, the fans used to spin at max rpm.
Also we tried the same thing but it didn't happen on my friend's late 2013 13" rMBP.
This thing really irritates me because it leds to a such noise. Without taking earphones on, I am not able to use the mac comfortably.
Can you help me to solve this issue please?
I'm adding a screenshot below to see the values;

I am not sure of the thermal limit for the haswell processors, but for Intel's previous generation processors installed in the rMBP lineup, the thermal limit was 100C (212F). Extended exposure to temperatures exceeding this could damage the CPU. What software are you using to manually control the fans? I wouldn't recommend manually controlling the fans. Let the internal heat sensors do their thing. Your rMBP will shutdown if the processor reaches dangerous temperatures for extended periods of time. I wouldn't say that this behavior is abnormal given the amount of heat your GPU generates when rendering graphics intensive games. Just make sure to keep the fan vent unobstructed at all times and a cooling pad never hurts.
Uninstall the software you are using to manually control the fans, reset the SMC, test and see if temperatures fall:

Late 2013 13" rMBP Thunderbolt/VTD Issue...

I just recieved my late 2013 13" rMBP and am trying to use a Buffalo HD-PA1.0TU3 external thunderbolt drive with it. The drive works fine on my 2011 Air and 2011 13" MBP, both over thunderbolt. I'm experiencing issues with my new rMBP however when I try to copy any data to/from the drive. The error
vtd[0] fault: device 10:0:0 reason 0x6 R:0x100600000
keeps popping up when I try to copy from or to the drive. At this point the copy operation is hung and only cancels when I remove the thunderbolt cable from the laptop. Occasionally if I leave the drive hooked up and sitting there while the copy operation is hung the laptop screen will go black and remain that way until I remove the thunderbolt cable. Once that happens the screen will immediately turn back on and the laptop will be perfectly usable (except for the whole being able to use my thunderbolt drives.) I've also tested with a Seagate GoFlex Thunderbolt drive that works on the 2011 Air and 2011 MBP, but it has the exact same issue as the Buffalo one. Thunderbolt networking however works fine between the rMBP and either my Air or older MBP. I unfortunately don't have anymore thunderbolt peripherals I can test though. Was wondering if anyone has seen this error before? I searched some and all I could find out is that there is some VTD fault happening with device 10:0:0 which is something on the thunderbolt bus according to ioreg (I'm assuming it's the disk drive.)
Thanks!

Your best option is to make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar. The evaluation will be free and then you will be in a position to make an informed decision.
If the MBP is still under warranty, it will be fixed for free.
Ciao.

My Mac Pro (Late 2013) with an Apple SSD as the only storage will not restart

I have a Mac Pro (Late 2013) with an APPLE SSD SM0256F as the only storage. When I restart all I get is the spinning bars. I have to manually hold the power button down to force shutdown. I have let it try to restart for as long as 30 minutes. It will start just fine from a shutdown. I am running Yosemite 10.10.2 (14C1510). I have used Disk Utility with no errors. The only time I need to restart is after a system upgrade. I have tried, as others have suggested, selecting the drive from the Startup Drive preferences with no difference. Any help is much appreciated!

Late 2013 13'' rMBP 4k 60Hz capability

I've been following threads regarding late 2013 (Haswell) rMBP's 4k @60Hz capability. The discussions on those threads have been predominantly revolving around high-end 15'' rMBP equipped with Nvidia 750M gpu because mostly owners of this specific rMBP have been inquiring this capability and only these people seem to own 4k 60Hz monitors-- this is quite natural given the exorbitant price of 4k monitors and considering that these people are after the utmost performance. The thing is, 4k displays will eventually become cheaper and people who are considering buying a Haswell rMBP without a discrete gpu might at least want to know if these rMBPs are future proof in terms of this capability.
As far as I've been following the discussions, the current status of the highest-end Haswell rMBP and accordingly my questions pertaining to lower-end Haswell rMBPs are as follows:
1) Status:Owners of Haswell 15'' rMBP with Nvidia 750M gpu and 4k 60Hz monitors confirm that they can output 4k @ 60Hz via Windows with their computers on these monitors. So far no one has confirmed if Haswell 13'' rMBPs equipped with Iris (and Haswell 15'' rMBPs with Iris Pro for that matter) has can output 4k @ 60Hz. It might be that these people don't have such a monitor.
Question: Please kindly confirm if you can get 4k@60Hz via Windows if you have a Haswell rMBP without discrete gpu and a 4k 60Hz monitor.
2) Status: Owners of Haswell 15'' rMBP with Nvidia 750M gpu and 4k 60Hz monitors have started to confirm that they can output 4k @ 60Hz via Mavericks with their computers on these monitors since the release of 10.9.3 beta 13D12 build. Moreover they are confirming that the experience has got even smoother with the 13D17 build of the beta. With the final release of 10.9.3 owners of this rMBP will likely get an immecapble 4k 60Hz experience.
Question: Please kindly confirm if you can get 4k@60Hz via Mavericks 10.9.3 beta build 13D17 if you have a Haswell rMBP without discrete gpu and a 4k 60Hz monitor.
PS. It is contentious whether Iris and Iris Pro are capable of outputting 4k at the 60Hz refresh rate, despite Haswell 13'' and low-end 15'' rMBPs are equipped with TB2 which is in theory capable of 4k @ 60Hz. Despite this, there seems to be conflicting Intel documentation in this regard. Therefore, at this point, not a document, but a confirmation would be much more reliable.
PS2. If the answer to question 1 is positive but negative to question 2, in my opinion this would still be very important because this will prove that Haswell rMBPs without discrete gpus are capable of 4k @ 60Hz, and that if this is possible with Windows, there is no reason it would not be on Mavericks in the future.

WiFi slower on late 2013 15" rMBP

So yesterday compared SpeedTest.net between my late 2013 15" rMBP and a mid 2012 15" MBP and the new machine is about 50% slower. The WiFi is a Cisco Meraki AP's (2x). Both machines were under two feet apart.
Then last night at home compared the new 15" against one of old 17" MBP's (2012??) and on fibre broadband with the latest Apple Airport Extreme base station and again the new machine was at least 50% slower, testing this time on testmy.net as recommended by an Apple Support engineer, after also flushing DNS as also recommended. And at home, I was the only person on the WiFi at the time.
Have got a Genius Bar appointment later next week, but was just wondering if anybody else has noticed this?

I'm having the exact same issue. I own a Late 2008 MacBook Pro, Late 2011 MacBook Pro, and now the Late 2013 MacBook Pro and of the three only the Late 2013 MacBook Pro demonstrates the lack of WiFI performance. I've tried it with mutliple different wireless networks with Bluetooth turned on and turned off with no noteable difference in levels of performance.
From the quantity of posts I've seen from a simple Google Search, it appears the problem is fairly widespread and really points to an issue with either the WiFi antenna, interferance, or a combination of the two.
I'm planning on opening a Support Case with Apple and I would recommend others do the same in order to get more visibility on the issue.

Late 2013 13" rMBP not starting up/black screen

Hi there,
so my brother's late 2013 13" rMBP does not power up properly. It is the top of the line model with the Core i7-4558U, 16GB of RAM, etc...
Pressing the power button leaves the screen powered off, and the fan possibly running, which is difficult to hear as it is so quiet... It is not a display issue tho, as it did work once and displayed the Apple and boot progress (Yosemite), but froze afterwards.
I've tried an SMC reset as explained on Apple Knowledgebase pages. That did work as expected, but the situation did not change. Others have suggested removing/disconnection the battery (which is not possible on this machine, i.e. I don't want to do it myself warranty wise).
Do you have any other suggestions?

Your best option is to make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar. The evaluation will be free and then you will be in a position to make an informed decision.
If the MBP is still under warranty, it will be fixed for free.
Ciao.

New late 2013 MBP Retina not using 802.11ac

Hi, I recently started to use a late 2013 15" Macbook Pro Retina with the newest Time Capsule. However, it's not connecting with 802.11ac. Rather it's using 802.11n. Is there a setting that I need to change to "force" it to use 802.11ac? Of note, I'm using 10.9; I haven't upgraded to 10.9.1 yet.

While booting the apple logo is purple and the the grey screen turn yellow for a second.

Late 2013 15" rMBP Crashs & Restarts

Hello,
I have some problems with my new Mac:
15-inch, Late 2013 Retina Macbook Pro running OSX Mavericks 10.9.2
Every now and then it all of a sudden stops working and shuts down with an error message, which just tells me the Mac encountered an error and must be restarted.
I tried everything Apple told me, still doing it :-(
I tried:
- Reset NVRAM/PRAM
- Reinstall Mavericks
What can it be, and what can I do?
Pretty stupid I spend over 3300 $ on a laptop which isn't working..
I don't now what I can post to help you help me, so I just tried to attach some screenshots of one of the latest crash reports, and some screenshots of the console systemdiagnostics.
"BSD process name corresponding to current thread: Google Chrome He" <-- Google Chrome problem?
I tried googling, but only found old posts with Chrome problems and no fix besides googles own updates.. I also read something about Graphics Card problems in the new rMBP's, can it be something like that?

Aaaaaand another crash! This time with:
BSD process name corresponding to current thread: WindowServer
http://pastebin.com/uPnGB4DB
@Melophage, I have not tried Safe Mode, but I will give it a shot.
Still interesting in knowing what I should do here, should Apple have a look at the machine or? Pretty unsatisfied with paying this much for a PC crashing every single day..

Late-2013 13" rMBP Poor Battery Life ( 5 Hours)

I recently purchased a Late-2013 13" Retina MacBook Pro and the battery life is nowhere near Apple's rating. I've doing light web surfing with medium brightness, no keyboard backlight, and no bluetooth, and I get less than 5 hours on a full charge.
Most reviewers seem to be getting 9-10 hours and I have no idea how that's possible.
I cycled the battery a couple of times when I first got the laptop, but otherwise haven't done anything special. I've installed all available updates, and have only found one or two other people with this same issue. Nothing seems to be using the CPU excessively, so I have no idea what could be causing such a huge battery drain.
I may try restting PRAM and the SMC controller, but otherwise I have no idea what to do. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Daniel

same here, way bellow 5 hours! my old 2.3 model 2011 with normal non SSD drive used to have a bettr battery life. this is disappointing.
I think it may be Mavericks as this machine should not drain battery. all hardware used is battery efficient. don't know, i don't find anything else to plame but OS! hope apple will address that issue in future mavericks updates.
I'l report this issue. have you guys done so?

New MBP retina late 2013 initial 29GB already used

Hello,
I just got my MBP retina late 2013, my first try of Mac from using PC for years. Out of the box I just did an upgrade, then checked the disk usage and already has around 28-29GB filled?
From the DiskUtility it is classified as "Others". I suspect this is the entire OSX Mavericks plus the standard apps? Is it normal? is it really this big?
I got a 500GB SSD so should not be an issue, but I still cannot sleep over it without knowing for sure if the 29GB usage is normal for a newly bought MBP.
Would appreciate your feedbacks.
Thanks!

Quite normal - everything in "Other" includes the OS, any user documents, etc. -> anything that doesn't neatly fit into the "Photos," Movies," etc. categories.
For info on the Storage tab, see -> The Storage Display.
Hope that you enjoy your new Mac!!

Late 2013 iMac 27". Used boot camp and installed windows 7 pro. While in Windows 7, in my pc the mac os does not show. Is there anyway to fix this outside of restoring entire computer and trying again. Thank you from a mac newbie

Hello. I bought a new iMac 27" with the following specs:
3.5GHz Intel Core i7 Quad-Core (Haswell)
32GB of 1600MHz DDR3 RAM
3TB Fusion Drive
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M Graphics (4GB)
27" LED-Backlit IPS Display
2560 x 1440 Native Resolution
802.11ac/a/b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0
Thunderbolt, USB 3.0, SDXC Card Reader
720p FaceTime HD Camera, Dual Mics
Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion (64-bit)
After installing all Mac update, used Bootcamp to create a Windows 7 drive. Everything went fine to a point. While in my Mac OS i can see the windows partition just fine and see/edit documents. However, when in the Windows 7 Pro 64 bit, I cannot see the mac os in my computer at all.
Can someone please help this mac owner newbie? This process worked fine on my mac mini and i have no troubles. It is just on my new iMac that it wont work/show the highlighted paragraph above
Any ideas and/or help would be greatly appreciated.

I understand that much. On my MAC Mini, if you look above at original post, I CAN see both OS while in the Windows 7 partition or the MAC OS. This is NOT the case on my iMac. Again, when in the MAC OS I can see the windows partion and move information between the two that way. When in the WINDOWS partition, the only one that shows is the Windows OS from my computer or network. The only way you can tell its even a MAC is the bootcamp icon in the bottom right corner of toolbar. Both have same version of MAC OS so both should work same way.. When i double click on my computer, it should show both the Windows drive AND the MAC (as does my mini and another iMac 21.5 that i have). This iMac does not do that - only shows windows.
