Macbook 2013 high resolution?

If I connect my macbook to philips television then suddenly my native screen goes into 1920 resolution (probably scaled). Can I without the external monitor set the high resolution?

All MBPs (including the 1st gen like yours) support up to 2560x1600 on an external display (and full native res on the internal simultaneously).

  • How can I open Adobe Bridge CS6 in high resolution on my MacBook Pro Retina display?

    How can I open Adobe Bridge CS6 in high resolution on my MacBook Pro Retina display? When I click Get Info, the "Open in Low Resolution" box is marked and locked. How can I unmark this box? I currently run 10.9.1. I can open Adobe Photoshop CS6 in high resolution without any problem. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    There is no such thing. In CS6 only PS itself is Retina compatible. You would have to use CC for full Retina support.

    InDesign CS6 is not optimized for retina displays. You’ll need to move to Creative Cloud for retina compatibility.

  • Replacing MacBook Pro Screen with higher resolution screen?

    I bought a MacBook Pro 15" today which has the lower end screen resolution.  I originally wanted the higher resolution screen but the guys in the shop said they didn't sell them in the shops, only online, but since I wanted one before I headed off to France on Monday for two months, I decided to just go for the lower resolution, which I was told would show no real visible difference.
    My question is: if I wanted to, would I be able to upgrade the screen to the higher resolution screen at a later date should I decide I was sick of this resolution?  I've only just started the computer for the first time now really, but have noticed that text is not as crisp as it was on my old vaio, which is disappointing, but I'm hoping I'm just being slightly OCD and the comparison will fade in time.

    An independent repair shop wouldn't have access to order parts - so your only source is either an Apple Store or an AASP. If you want to try to DIY, you might be able to find the part at www.ifixit.com.

  • Can AppleScript dialog configured to use high resolution on macbook retina?

    I've just got the macbook retina and noticed that script dialogs displays text in low resolution. Is there an configuration parameter that needs to be set to high resolution texts?

    There aren't any settings you can make or change for the dialogs from Standard Additions.  I don't know if there is an update planned - some of those look to be pretty old.

  • Macbook Pro 15" High-Resolution Display

    Hi
    I'm a little confused with the option of having high-res on the 15" model. Is the resolution dictated by hardware or software?
    If it's hardware, do they have a different display panel on high-res models? (since the GPU remains the same)
    If it's software, then, is it a driver issue or system code that "unlocks" the choice of resolutions? (remember under both configurations, the GPU is the same)
    Thanks

    Gregory: You can see exactly what the difference in menu fonts' (and other GUI elements') size will be using your present machine by doing the following:
    1. Display a typical/representative set of windows and stuff, including the smallest fonts you normally read, on your present 1440 x 900 MBP display.
    2. Take a screenshot of it by pressing CommandShift3.
    2. Open the screenshot in Preview by double-clicking it.
    3. Print the screenshot, using the following settings in the Print dialog box:
    Paper size: whatever your printer can handle
    Orientation: horizontal
    Center image: not checked
    Scale: 100% (do not check Scale to Fit).
    If your printer offers a choices of resolutions or qualities, choose the highest.
    This should result in a printout in which the fonts and graphic elements are the same size as those displayed on your screen. Verify this.
    4. Change the scale to 85.7% and print again, leaving the other settings the same.
    This will produce a printout that, if your first one matched what's displayed on your screen, will match what you'd see on the higher-resolution 1680 x 1050 display.
    Compare the two printouts.

    Hello,
    I'm wondering why Firefox almost hangs my system while opening high-resolution images like this one (save your data, you have been warned):

    While opening, it involves X process to use CPU and a lot of memory (it's freed shortly after loading the image). Other browsers don't do that. Moreover, other browsers don't do any problems with such images, they load it fast and efortless. I Have 2GB of RAM.

  • How to fix lost connections to original high-resolution pictures in iPhoto and how to import an iPhoto Book from one iPhoto library to another

    Hi there,
    I am using a MBP Pro with 8 GB cache and 1 TB HDD from beginning of 2011 with OS X Yosemite and iPhoto version 9.6 (910.29).
    I created an iPhoto Book to print which contains my best pictures of 2013 and 2014. Then I got an error message when I wanted to print the book, saying (translated from German):
    Book could not be created.
    With photo p233432343.jpg there was an error. The original version of that photo with full resolution could not be found or is damaged. Please replace the photo or delete it from your book.
    When I enquired further, I found out, that many, many pictures in my iPhoto library have that problem - only the thumbnail picture is found by iPhoto, but not the one with the high resolution. When looking at the photos in detail one sees that they are not sharp because obviously the photo book only refers to the thumbnail. When I went into the iPhoto Library using Finder, I saw that the original high res photos are still there. As there are an estimated 3000 photos with a lost connection (some still have, it but about 1/2 of my photos don´t), it does not make sense to import those photos manually. This photo book is just the tip of the iceberg, so to say.
    Then I looked for solutions in some forums. I had two lPhoto libraries, one on my HDD (120GB) and one on an external HDD (175GB). Assuming there might be problems, I have deleted (moved) the one on my HDD, because the "right one" is the one on my external HDD and started iPHoto again using the alt key. But that did not work either.
    I then tried to repair my iPhoto library using iPhoto Library Manager, and merged and rebuilt libraries. The library that came out was crap - all folders that had lost connections to the high resolution pictures now have zero photos in it. Also it is lacking the projects, including the photo book I created.
    Then I went to find out if there is a way to import the iphoto book project from the old, corrupt library into the new, repaired library but could not find anything. It can only be exported as a file structure or website. As the file structure is missing the high res pictures, that does not even solve the "little" problem of the photobook.
    I would REALLY appreciate your help on the two questions:
    1- Can you advise what I need to to do to to get the connection to the high resolution photos established again  ? As it is more than 3000 photos, I use an automated way of reestablishing that connection. Probably an answer to this question would make question 2 irrelevant.
    2- Do you know if there is a way to export and import a book project created in iPhoto from one library to another ?

    1 - Select  the thumbnail of one of the problem photos and use the File ➙ Reveal in Finder ➙ Original menu option.  This will take you to the folder containing the original file with that file selected by the Finder. 
    You can also use Find Any File to search for that file (get the file name from the Info pane in iPhoto). You will find the thumbnail version and maybe an edited version also.  Made sure what is found is the large, original version and note were it's located.  Search all of your drives with FAF just in case.
    If you don't fine the full sized version then the only recourse is to use a file recovery application like   SubrosaSoft FileSalvage on your drives to see if any of your full sized photos can be recovered.   If you find enough files to make the purchase of the software worthwhile buy it and recover the files.  However, since it may have been quite a while since you discovered the missing originals it seems unlikely you'll be able to recover any due to being overwritten.
    2 - book projects are just entries in the library databases and can't be exported to another library. 

  • How to copy objects from Pages (5.5.1) and paste it into Photoshop as a vector smart object with high resolution?

    I recently have bought a new Macbook Pro (Version 10.10.1) with the OS X Yosemite. The computer comes with the new Pages (version 5.5.1).
    Here is the problem: I like to create artwork using the shapes on Pages. Previously, on my old mac, I used Pages 4.3 to create objects, which I would copy then paste to Photoshop and it would become a vector smart object. However, in the new Pages (version 5.5.1), when I copy objects, they would appear on Photoshop as instead, a layer and it would not be in full resolution.
    Also, I know there is nothing wrong with the Pages file itself because I have converted the document to PDF form and it is high resolution when inserted into Photoshop that way.
    Does anyone know how I can copy individual objects from Pages (5.5.1) and paste it into Photoshop as a vector smart object with high resolution as I have done before?
    Thanks!

    copy the image and have it in a high-quality PNG format that does not include the background from the Pages document.
    Oh, well if you don't actually need vector objects then it looks like this is possible. As I said earlier, Pages is putting a PNG on the clipboard. I tested it and it does paste into Photoshop as a transparent layer, because I can see the transparent background of the pasted PNG graphic if I either turn off all layers behind it in Photoshop, or if I start a new Photoshop document to paste into but make sure I choose Transparent for the Background Contents in the New Document dialog.

  • Saving an image to a higher resolution from a lower one

    I have photoshop cs6 on my MacBook Pro and downloaded images I'm working on for a friend who needs them for professional use. They're all in 72 dpi so I managed to save them at a higher resolution of 300 dpi, and in Tiff format but when I try to email them the images revert back to 72 dpi. How can I keep the resolution at 300 or higher for email
    Thanks

    I know you haven't asked for advice about the actual re-sampling process, but I can't help myself .
    If the images are for print reproduction or a similar high quality requirement the results are likely to be very poor even if up-sampled to 300dpi. It's OK to down-sample images if the pixel data is there in the first place. If it's only 72dpi and then up-sampled, and even if it looks good on screen, it'll be rubbish in commercial print.
    The exception might be if the actual dimensions of the 72dpi image is large and it is up-sampled to 300dpi but at the same time the dimensions are reduced considerably that should help preserve some quality.
    All that said, if you are using Mail, try selecting Actual Size, as shown in the image (if you haven't already). The option only appears when you add an attachment to an email.

  • Macbook pro "hi-resolution" display?

    i have a 15" macbook pro with "high resolution" display (1440 x 900).   note this is NOT a retina macbook pro - it is older.
    i'm used to working at "native" resolution - it makes the menu bar rather small, but i prefer it this way.   upon installing yosemite on this machine, it seems my "effective" screen resolution is reduced - the menubar appares to be scaled-up in size, default fonts for all apps are larger, etc.   
    it appears that the "displays" preferences pane in yosemite offers few options - "best for display" or "scaled", however nothing i can choose here (as far as i can tell) brings things back to what i want which is to use the display in native full resolution mode with no scale-up of any kind.   even if i select "scaled" and choose 1440x900, the UI elements (and the menubar in particular) still appear to be significantly scaled up.
    on my other machine (a retina machine running mavericks), i see a slightly a slightly different version of displays preference pane.   i get what i want there by choosing the "more space" option.
    anyone have an idea how i can get the effect of the "more space" option (what i would call "native resolution") on my older macbook pro under yosemite?

    Looking at the specs, this MB Pro comes under late 2007 spec, but checking supported resolutions, it more than covers native resolutions for both main display and the NEC simultaneously.
    Can anyone shed some light on this, or have I got this wrong? Is it down to DVI or could I use VGA with an adaptor - would this give me better resolution?
    Cheers.

  • Samsung 205BW with MacBook Pro, lost resolution...

    When arriving home after work I have a home station with an extra Samsung 20" 205BW external monitor next to my MacBook Pro 2.4 Intel Duo. The Samsung has always shown up in the System prefs>displays at 1680 x 1050 / 60 Hz... Taught a master class this weekend where they had an Epson projector. I connected to it for the class. This projector had a default resolution reset. Returning home and setting up this morning the highest resolution available for this Samsung monitor in System Prefs≥displays is 1440x900. Where did my higher resolution go? It was there before! Is there a reset that I am missing? Samsung's support is no help.
    Message was edited by: rwstudio

    Hey rw.
    I have the same display and setup and my Macbook Pro (albeit 2.2) and exhibits the same issue.
    Apple is aware of the issue and there's a Bug ticket open on it to resolve. There are quite a few threads on the subject here.
    I know that doesn't help but I suppose it's good that there's a solution coming (hopefully)

  • Lion, Dell External Display, no higher resolutions !!!!!

    Hi,
    Apologies if this is the wrong area for this to go into... but i think this is a problem with Lion rather than anything else.
    Recently got a new MacBook Pro 15" (woo hoo !!!) and its running Lion.
    When i go into the System Preferences > Display, the highest resolution is showing up as 1680x1050. That's fine.
    Now when i plug my Dell 3007WFP external monitor into the laptop the maximum resolution that i can select is 1280x800. It recognizes the display, but just doesn't have the higher resolutions for me to be able to select.
    I didn't have this problem with my old 17" MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard.
    Any ideas on what the problem might be, and how i can fix it ???
    Thanks in advance for all suggestions...
    Silver

    Update...
    Found the solution to the problem...
    Basically, its nothing to do with Lion or a fault on the MacBook Pro...
    All new Macbook's ship with the Thunderbolt port. So if you want to plug an external display in which is 30" or more then you need to use a Mini Display Port to Dual Link DVI adapter. I was using a Mini Display to DVI adaptar, so i was basically getting half the resolution (1280x800) !!! Now with the dual link, i have full 2560x1600 glory !!!
    Liink to the device at Apple Store... http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
    Hope that helps someone else who has the problem.

  • Are There Any Advantages To High Resolution Displays?

    I am looking to buy a new 17 inch MacBook Pro at the end of this month and seeking practical advice on configuration options I should choose.
    I am curious about what other people think of the advantages and disadvantages of the high resolution displays. Perhaps it is just a personal preference on the part of different users but non-graphics users I have talked to who have used the high res screens say they don't like them and why but I have yet to talk to any artists who have used them and whether artists find real advantages. My feeling is that it would be good to be able to fit a larger (more pixels) image on the screen or is it better to just leave high res screens to those who work with high definition video/animation?
    My usage of the computer is largely in Photoshop and other graphics programs like Painter, and web design.

    Just to be clear, though, reducing the resolution of an LCD can have a negative effect on image quality. LCDs have an optimal "native" resolution and setting the resolution below that native level results in a poorer quality image.
    Leopard claims "resolution independence" - I have not tried it yet, but if you read the description of this feature, you will note that it applies to the user interface elements. Granted, that's often what you notice the most (i.e. the problem with reducing the resolution below native for an LCD is that the text in Finder, all of the menu bar items, etc., looks "fuzzy"). By appropriately scaling the UI elements, Leopard overcomes the limitation. But the "fuzzyness" will still apply to non-UI things that are displayed - i.e. images. Since based on your posts you will be working with images primarily, high-res vs. standard is still a choice I'd recommend considering carefully, and ideally by trying them both side-by-side.
    Ps. Thanks for awarding points!
