MacBook Pro 13 Inch

hi, i recently purchased a macbook pro 13 inch this past summer. i did the lion program and it worked great. i bought the newest model, (2011) but have noticed a difference with the ones more recently purchased from bestbuy; the shortcut keys have different signs/pictures on them representing dashboard; mission control, etc. I know this is not a big deal; but some people have complained about the re-sale value dropping signifigantly because people say, "that is the old one; the box has snow leopard"-- and the new box has lion on it. would bestbuy replace (i have the 2 year warrenty) it? with the new one? also, the track pad is unresponsive sometimes. the pro is in excellent condition, as it has no scratches dents chips-- anything. i have had a case on it since the beggining.
If i was able to get a replacment, is there any chance i could pay the difference and get the dedicated graphics card in the 15 inch?  just a thought. i have been playing some gaming on it-- it runs great, but i would much rather have the dedicated graphics card. it is such a pain though, i have so much software on it and i will not pay geek squad 100 dollars just to make a trasfer. annoying.
the point is, i payed for the "newest" product, but in a way got the older one.
thanks in advance.

Yes even if you have the warranty and if you damage it during the hard drive or ram upgrade or if a problem arrises that could be linked to that then it is not covered.

  • Macbook Pro inch 13 (2011) graphic problem

    Please Help me I dont stand why if I buy a MacBook Pro inch 13 (2011) the game "The Sims 3 Pets" have graphics problems, the horses look black and without form. Whith de previous Macbook pro inch 13 with nvidia graphics the game is perfect and now with the most modern the game dont also work. I dont know the problem is Lion SO

    Apparantly there were some compatibility issues with the Sims3 and Lion. I believe there is a Sims3 update available if I'm not mistaken.

  • How can I connect my Early 2011" Macbook Pro 13" inch, with a generic Mini Display Port to HDMI connector, to a LG 32LD340 LCD TV, using Mountain Lion 10.8.2?

    I have an Early 2011" macbook pro 13 inch (core i5 2.3ghz 4gb ram 320hdd) with Mountain Lion 10.8.2, and I want to connect it via Mini DP to HDMI connector, and a HDMI cable to a LCD TV LG 32LD340. When I had Lion OS, I had no problems at all.

    If you have an external drive equal to or larger than your internal HD, clone your internal to it with either Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper. Test the clone to make sure it's bootable. Then upgrade either one. Try it out first.

  • Wi-Fi: No Hardware Installed on MacBook Pro 8,2 (15 inch, Late 2011)

    Hi Everyone,
    For the second time now, I have to bring my Macbook Pro 8,2 (macbookpro8,2, 15 inch, late 2011) running Mountain Lion back to the Genius Bar due to a unrecognized Wi-Fi Airport adapter. The computer was purchased in March of 2012.
    The problem started as I was watching 'The Daily Show" online, when suddenly, I lost connection. I clicked on the wi-fi adapter icon on the top menu bar, and saw that no access points were available when there normally were over 20, including mine in the house. I went into the network settings under system preferences and saw that the wi-fi card was off (although it was just on and still showed the full-signal indicator in the menu bar), and attempted to click the button to turn it back on with no response. All other options were either greyed-out or displayed no information. The Hardware tab didn't even display and the mac address suddenly became all zeros.
    I rebooted the computer, only to discover the wi-fi indicator on the menu bar displaying no signal. Upon clicking on the icon, the dreaded "Wi-Fi: No Hardware Installed" was displayed. I tried resetting the SMC and PRAM/NVRAM with no success. I also rand the Hardware Troubleshooter ( Option - D upon bootup ) which neither saw the communications device nor reported finding any problem.
    I brought it to the Genius Bar, and they ended up replacing BOTH the Logic Board, Wi-Fi adapter, and connection cable between the wi-fi adapter and logic board on July 23, 2012.
    Now, it's October 10, 2012, and last night, as I was working through a VPN tunnel on the terminal on one of our remote servers, the SAME THING happened AGAIN! The connection was dropped, same scenario as above, and upon bootup I was greeted with the  "Wi-Fi: No Hardware Installed" message again.
    The hardware magically disappeard with no mention of this in the Console, as far as I can tell. The Console mentions the loss of connection and inability to contact DNS, but nothing relating to hardware.
    For the record, the bluetooth continued to function both times I've had this issue. The first time this happened, I was running Lion and now I'm running Mountain Lion.
    So apparently there is something really wrong with either the physical enclosure causing a short somehow, the quality of the Broadcom chip on this wi-fi device, or there's some type of software/power causing the chip to short out.
    My compouter is as protected as can be - it's in a Speck plastic housing with a keyboard cover, which was purchased after the first incident, I use it on a hard flat plastic laptop tablet at home, and carry it around in a Timbuk2 Laptop bag. It also has never been dropped.
    What's the problem here? Has anyone else had this problem?
    Thanks and all the best of luck and success solving your own computer problems

    Sorry for the late reply. I had a bad experience with the Apple Store and the 'Genius' Bar where I live. However, in the end, I received my MacBook Pro back from repair and everything is working.
    Like I said in my previous post, the first time the Wi-Fi broke, I was using Lion. The mother (Logic) board was replaced as well as the Wi-Fi card.
    The second time it broke, I was using Mountain Lion. Booting up the Recovery partition and Snow Leopard (new install) did not solve the issue. The Apple Store confirmed that the Wi-Fi card was broken through various testing, which I observed.
    Since the attenna wires for the Wi-Fi run through the display, we decided the next logical step was to replace the Wi-Fi card and the display. The reasoning is that there could have been a short or cross connection in the attenna wiring that was causing the Wi-Fi cards to short-out/burn-out. The Bluetooth continued to work in both cases the Wi-Fi failed, meaning that it was unlikely a cable problem.
    Since the display and wi-fi have been replaced (20121025), I've had no problems. The wi-fi card is working.
    I'm glad the kext file solution has worked for you. I've seen posts on this solution; however, after determining that this was indeed a hardware failure (by using Recovery console, booting from Snow Leopard, and using Hardware Troubleshooter (it didn't even see the Wi-Fi) ), I didn't bother with fiddling with the kext (driver) files. Besides, this hardware is supposed to be designed to work with the OS without any problems whatsoever. Shame on Apple if they don't ship proper drivers for their hardware!

  • I have a MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008) and am currently running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. I would like to know which is the most stable upgrade for my model. I have read some reviews of Maverick and Yosemite making the older macs slower. Is this true?

    I have a MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008), Intel Core 2 Duo 2.53 GHz, 4GB Memory. and am currently running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    I would like to know which is the most stable upgrade for my model? Mountain Lion, Mavericks or Yosemite?
    When I had gone to the apple care centre in India a few months ago to upgrade my OSX to Mountain Lion, I was told that considering my macbook pro's specs, upgrading it would just make it less efficient, and that I should stick to Snow Leopard unless I consider buying a newer mac that would benefit from it. Is this true? I find it a bit hard to believe. Which update is most recommended?
    I also notice that my mac has gotten considerably slower. While using chrome, it buffers and struggles with even just 5 tabs open. Could this have something to do with my current ios? As a precaution, I have always been making sure I have enough free space on disk i.e around 70 - 100 free out of 250GB.
    Any advice is appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    Mavericks is no longer available from the App Store, so your choice is Yosemite. One option is to create a new partition (~30- 50 GB), install the new OS, and ‘test drive’ it. If you like/don’t like it it, you can then remove the partition. Do a backup before you do anything. By doing this, if you don’t like it you won't have to go though the revert process.
    Check to make sure your applications are compatible.

  • HT203254 My MacBook Pro 15-inch with NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT graphics processors just failed. Do you guys know if apple still fixes them?

    My MacBook Pro 15-inch with NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT graphics processors just failed. Do you guys know if apple still fixes them?

    I tried last week. The best I could get was a discount on the repair, but the damage to my logic board by the GPU caused it to no longer boot. The program ended in December last year, but it has been extended in the past.
    If you have no other damage you might be able to get a flat rate tier 1 repair if you are in the USA.

  • Macbook pro 15 inch wifi problem (late 2011)

    Hello,
    Here I write a little desperate with this problem that I have on the MacBook Pro (late 2011) with WIFI .
    For several months ago, when I power on the MBP is all apparently normal , spend a few minutes and I lose the WIFI , the icon still comes out as "connected " but no WIRELESS signal , I turned off the WIFI, but, when I try to change back to turn ON, the icon of WIFI still OFF ( the inverted triangle ) . Restarting the MBP and still the problem no signal and appears as disabled , delete PRAM several times until finally everything works again , spend some time and again the same thing sometimes is fine for several hours, go out to eat and return and again the same thing, the worst was when I saw the message "Hardware not found" and "X " where the icon goes WIFI . I rebooted several times and not managed , this was the "hardware not found" message. Some time ago I went something like , when Lion had and read that resetting the PRAM and managed , never came out , but now even that it manages , and it is becoming more common , I thought it was the OS ( MacOSX Mavericks ) so I reinstalled (I'm not used Time Machine, I install all again ), this work the lasted several days without fail, until she passed again, I'm out of WiFi, when I see no WIFI signal in the list , restart me WIFI goes off and I can not change , restart it goes back to " hardware not found" and so on.
    Now desperate for this, I opened the MBP , disconnected the cables from the Airport card and reconnected with care and making sure you are all well , turned on the MBP again and works!!, I lasted two weeks , then I thought it was that. But again the whole problem again.
    Already investigating more online and I found some details from other users
    1 / Both WIFI and Bluetooth are on the same card ( the q disconnected and reconnected )
    2 / If the card was wrong , losing the WIFI Bluetooth should lose , but I tried Bluetooth and has no problems
    3 / Reported that resetting PRAM or SMC but still, in my case, does not work.
    Now all I have left to rule is the WIFI antenna that is located ( if I remember correctly ) for the bottom of the screen, and according to several users this tends to fail from constant use to close or open the MBP (or either to cover or uncover ) , and sometimes it just heats and heats close to this area .
    Has anyone had a similar problem? My MBP turns 2 only on March 7, 2014 , I can not believe all that cost me and now is about to fail , I have a Sony VAIO Core 2 Duo for about 5 years (or more) ago and is still running and has been dropped many times and nothing has ever happened : (
    Additional data on my MBP ,
    Several months ago ( long before the problem with the WIFI) I changed the hard drive for an SSD ( 250GB Corsair Neutron X ) .
    There is a problem that often makes me too, is that when you close the MBP ( to open ) , and open it back again ( out of sleep) the following happens :
    1 / It instantly freezes when waking from sleep and I have a long wait to enter the password.
    2 / When you leave idle normal let me put the password, but just when giving ENTER freezes
    3 / Out of sleep, let me put the key, ENTER and when I load the desktop freezes
    Another problem :
    This only happened to me a few times , as I mentioned , my MBP is formatted ( have Mavericks ) before formatted (clean install without time machine) , I closed the MBP ( I sent to sleep) and the open the screen was black , but as with bright, and not leave the state, turned off force ( pressing the button) , start the MBP again (power on) charged normal gray screen with apple but with a fairly low brightness, spent a few seconds and turned the brightness to normal and started normally .
    I hope some can help me with these problems.
    PD : I'm from Peru , if anyone knows a trusted service that please let me know .
    Thank you very much .

    Your wifi problem sounds very much like the problem I had. The wifi would drop out, the icon showed it was still connected. If I turned it off, I couldn't turn it back on. Another user here pointed me to the problem, which was the wifi cable (the flat cable goint from the card to the motherboard). I found it on ebay for $13 and it's been running fine since I replaced it. This is the repair guide for your machine. The part number will be on there if you click the link.

  • Blotch on my 13 inch macbook pro screen non retina

    i have a black blotch on my 13 inch non retina macbook pro mid 2012. the warranty expires in august. Since I requested for this mac from my relatives, i dont have a reciept but the waranty shows on apple's site. i paid for the mac and i live in a country where there is no apple authorized dealer. the closest i can get to is malaysia. will the warranty be covered there. if yes  then will they repair it or will there be an option for refund???
    i really need help with this

  • I have the 13 inch macbook pro bought in august 2011,the battery life instead of 7 hours lasts only for 3-4 hours why is this so

    i was very impressed when i saw the 7 hour battery life of the macbook 13 in the store . but after using the system it only lasted 3-4 hours completely , same was the case for windows 7 pro. all the other functions of my mac are working fine.I buyed the system pin packed in front of me.I questioned the retailer about this but he had no clue what was happenig which caused this.I think this has something to do with china as my mac has been assembled in china and designed by apple californiahttp://computershopper.com/laptops/reviews/apple-macbook-pro-13-inch-2011-versio n these are the specs and the review of the system.but remove the phenominal battery life from the pros.I'm new to apple so please also provide me a location where i can get apple support in Pakistan

    The 7 hour battery life is maximum that can be expected with minimal drain, but 3-4 hours either means you are using it very, very hard or the battery is bad. OR the gauge needs calibration, see below.
    Turn off WiFi if you are not using it, and dim the display to also save battery power. It also depends on the applications that you are using.
    One months is  awfully fast for you to lose that much battery time. If the laptop was new, then I would talk to the seller about an exchange, at least exchanging the battery.
    Have you tried calibrating the battery? See
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/9036.html
    for how. Please note, this only calibrates when the MBP charges the battery and resets the calibration of time or percentage of battery charge left. The lithium battery does not have a memory.

    I recommend you to run Apple Hardware Test > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1509 It's possible that something is damaged, and Apple Hardware Test will help you finding it. Make sure you tick the option to run an extended test, and connect your Mac to the charger.
    If your Mac came with DVDs, you have to insert the Mac OS X DVD to run Apple Hardware Test. As you haven't got the SuperDrive, you will have to buy an external optical drive

  • 17 inch screen v 15 inch screen on a macbook pro

    Hi there,
    I'm just about to buy a new macbook pro and planning to use it predominantly for editing on.
    I heard recently that there were problems with the size of the 17 inch screen on some mac laptops and that they were fragile and prone to breaking.
    I also heard that Apple had made moves to fix this problem. Has anyone bought a 17 inch macbook pro recently and have they had any problems?
    Obviously from an editing perspective it would be nice to buy the biggest screen available but don't want to buy it if it's dodgy.
    Can anyone offer advice??
    Many thanks

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    LCD issues can typically be avoided as long as you follow the tips here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=944373&tstart=0
    Don't let the preponderance of issues on this board make you think issues are widespread. This is a hospital ward. Very few people come here who have no problems.
    It has been mentioned elsewhere the 17" screen may be too big to pass British customs. I've not had that problem with U.S. customs. The 15" screen also has LED based LCD, which supposedly is more environmentally friendly, but Apple has a good recycling program that should still keep it environmentally friendly on http://www.apple.com/environment/
    The 17" machine is slightly more powerful than the 15" according to specs:
    http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/specs.html
    So really the question becomes what are you going to be primarily editing? Text, the power of the machine matters little. RAW photos and video it matters more.

    riyazfrombangalore,
    your 13-inch Mid 2009 MacBook Pro requires 1066 MHz RAM, but you have 1333 MHz RAM installed. Try replacing the 1333 MHz RAM with 1066 MHz RAM — Macs can be picky about the RAM which they find acceptable.

  • Does any one else with a mid 2012 13 inch macbook pro have this problem?

    I took my computer in for repair last year having this problem and the problem has started again. I don't know why this happens because I am very carefull with my laptop and never use it on my lap. I also have a shell case on the computer and put this in a laptop sleeve. Also,  have friends that abuse their laptops and have the same model as me and they have never had this kind of issue. My software is up to date so I don't think thats a problem.
    Model: Macbook Pro 13 inch Mid 2012
    I purchased this in June 2012 and do not have apple care so if someone can tell me how much the repair for this problem will cost that would be great!

    That looks like a GPU or display problem.  Make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar.  The evaluation will be free regardless of warranty status.  You will be told what repair costs will be, which you may accept or decline.
    Bring the image with you just in case the MBP starts to behave it self in front of the technician.
    Ciao.

  • What is the battery expectancy for late 2009 13-inch macbook pro

    I have a 13-inch, Mid 2009 Macbook pro and it seems that the battery has been draining quite fast.  It was ast 85% charge about 30 minutes ago and now it's down to 24%.  Is this typical for "normal wear" usage? or could this be a battery issue?

    Yes and No. It all depends on many factors.
    Age of battery, yours is 3+ (going on 4) years old.
    Use of battery, how many cycles does it have.
    Usage habbits, whether you are in the habbit of draining the battery down to the point the system almost shuts off or does shut off, neither is good for the battery. Leaving it connected to the AC all the time. There is a system included to drain the battery and recharge it. But it doesn't do it enough or starts the recharge at to high a percentage creating a long term Short Cycle condition.
    All batteries only last so long. 3+ years isn't bad and yours still works although it does lose it charge more rapidly, which is to be expected with age and use.
    Even if you never really used it and it sat on a shelf eventually that battery would be no good. Li-ion batteries have a shelf life. Used or not used it will eventually fail to work.
