Macbook Pro 2013, preinstalled with OS X Lion
Hi, I'm just buying Macbook Pro 13" 2.5 GHz Dual-Core. It comes with preinstalled OS X Lion instead of Mountain Lion.
Is it normal to get Macbook Pro preinstalled with OS X Lion since I just bought it yesterday (16-July-2013)? I thought Apple has shipped Macbooks with preinstalled Mountain Lion since Jul 2012.
Does it mean that I just got a long stored in a box macbook pro (at least stored 1 year)?
My reseller told me that they will help to upgrade to Mountain Lion, but I want to clarify whether I should get a new Macbook with preinstalled Mountain Lion?
My Apple authorized reseller also has a product replacement policy for 3 days
Thanks in advance
Hi all,
Thanks for this helpful apple discussion community for the fast responses, I finally managed to get a replacement with a new Macbook Pro 13" mid 2012 with OS Mountain Lion preinstalled. Because I can convince them that the OS they install is not legit (even though they said it is legit based on their company), I keep on complaining and my effort works so that i get a new one.
From the box itself, it is already different between the Lion preinstalled and ML preinstalled. For Mountain Lion preinstalled, there will be apple logo on both left & right side of the box, whereas Lion preinstalled edition will have one apple logo on the left or right side, and the other side will show the icon for thunderbolt and two other features (i don't remember).
@Kurt Lang,
Now, my Model Identifier said MacBookPro9,2. I don't capture the old one because it is already taken by the reseller.

I've a MacBook Pro Mid 2010 with OS X Lion 10.7.2. and when i try to update my software it says you are up to date in fact 10.7.3 is out.

Macbook pro was preinstalled with 9.2.1and after update iPhoto won't open-what to do
macbook pro was preinstalled with 9.2.1 and after update won't open-get message that says 9.2.1 isn't supported by OS X
Update to 9.5.1 from the AppStore.
Sign ino the AppStore with your AppleID and check, if there is iPhoto on your Purchased tab to be accepted to your AppleID. If yes, accept it. Then check the "Updates" tab of the App Store.
If you cannot update this way, download an update from the Software update section of the Apple Support page. You need to update at least to version iPhoto 9.4.3.
What MacOS version did you upgrade from? Did your Mac come with system installation media, or did you install and update from the AppStore? -
Hello. I've Apple TV 3rd gen and MacBook Pro 2013 all with latest updates. AirPlay works fine till I don't start streaming videos from YouTube. After that AirPlay icon from MacBook menu bar simply disappears. Could some help. I'm using 2 Mbps internet connection.
Same issue here- I can airplay my amazon prime library just fine from my iphone 5 but on my macbook- (mavericks, 15 inch 2013 retina with quad core i7, nvidia 650 M and SSD) it just sputters and lags.
I have noticed web video is considerably worse than local content, giving me pauses of up to 2 or 3 seconds in which video stops but audio continues in the amazon player. Youku video, however, seems relatively stable. Our subscription speed is 25 mbps, so that should be plenty to stream SD video from Amazon and doesn't account for why it would be nice and stable from the iphone, but not the mbp.
Playing light, locally hosted steam sidescrollers like Limbo is better but gives periodic drops in framerate on the Tv. when mirroring the framerate remains steady on the MBP screen.
Games airplayed from my iphone seem relatively stable, though with a noticably lower framerate on the TV than on the phone.
It seems these issues have abated considerably since yesterday's Apple TV update, but are still curious nonetheless and I'm not sure that the update yesterday was specifically meant to address those issues or if I'm just getting a time with less network interference now.
Comcast recently installed a new router/modem/phone combo, replacing our old separate modem and router setup. I'm going to test if putting the network on a different channel helps. -
How can I run the hardware test on a macbook pro that SHIPPED with lion (never had an earlier OS) without access to the install disks? I am away from them and home for several months. Holding down the D key does nothing.
Press "Option" and "D" key together.
"Restart your computer, holding down the “D” key while the computer restarts.After your computer restarts, you should see the Apple Hardware Test chooser screen. If you don’t, Apple Hardware Test may not be available on your computer. You may be able to start Apple Hardware Test from the Internet. Reconnect your computer to the network, and then restart your computer while holding down both the Option and “D” keys."

New macbook pro 2012 preinstalled with lion can't be reinstalled?
Hi everyone,
I'm new to mac os x and I just bought a new macbook pro 13" four days ago which came preinstalled with mac os x lion. I tried to do a clean install on the third day to experience doing it myself for the first time. here's what I did:
1st try
@DU I perform erase Macintosh HD, set the partition table to GUID, partitioned the drive,
exit DU and then selected reinstall mac os x from the mac os x utilities,
I just clicked continue, continue, then it did some eligibility checking and verification.
after a while the dialog window showed this message " This version of Mac OS X 10.7 cannot be installed on this computer."
there's no other option below than quit.
2nd try
restarted macbook then pressed down option+command+r
the globe logo came out. I connected to my home wifi and a progress bar indicator came out. after the progress bar completed, the Mac os x utilities came out.
I selected reinstall mac os x from the mac ox x util. I clicked on continue, continue.. an eligibility and verification followed and after a while I got the same message saying "This version of Mac OS X 10.7 cannot be installed on this computer."
3rd try
I restarted macbook again and pressed down option+command+r
I did the steps from the 1st try again but I still get the same message "This version of Mac OS X 10.7 cannot be installed on this computer."
Can anyone help me out on how to reinstall Lion? or did I missed out anything? or should I send this macbook for repair? or just return it?
appreciate any advice...thanks.I remember something similar happening when OS X Lion was first released. At that time, the mid-2011 MacBook Air hit the store shelves and many users could not do a full reinstall from the Apple Servers. The reason, was that the MacBook Air had a specialized version of OS X Lion with a build number that has 4 numbers (i.e. build 11AXXXX) following the OS release number. In contrast, the release version of OS X at the time was 11A511 which uses 2 or 3 numbers and is a universal version of OS X that can be used by any Mac. The reason why you are experiencing problems installing OS X Lion is because you got the newest MacBook Pro which has a specialized build of OS X Lion and as in previous cases, it has 4 numbers meaning that it is a specialized version of OS X.
You appear to be running the following version of OS X Lion:
As you can see, it's an exclusive and optimized version of OS X for your MacBook. Your only hope is that Apple releases the OS X 10.7.5 release which most likely be universal with all Macs.
I suggest going to the Genius Bar to sort things out.
Hope my little explanation helps.

Macbook Pro to come with OS X Lion in July
I purchased the macbook pro today and I hear that the os x lion will come out in july.
In july will the pro's come preinstalled with lion?
Since I purchased mine recently would I be able to upgrade for free?
Or do all users have to pay for the lion upgrade - including new customers.
I'm asking this because I think I'll just return the pro and wait for lion to come out next month if it comes preinstalled - save myself $30.Every Apple international website followed by /macosx/uptodate/ in the link, offers the special upgrade pricing to Lion that is for purchased machines after Lion's announcement at WWDC in June. Below are a couple examples of said link

Apple MacBook Pro 13" 2012 with OS Mountain Lion ships standard with iWorks?
We recently purchased an Apple MacBook Pro 13" new, but from a recommended third party seller because we needed the 2012 version with OS Mountain Lion on it due to Pro Tools incapatability with Maverick. Our Apple consultant told us that all Laptops ship standard with iWorks, but our college student who we purchased it for, says it is not on the laptop & that no software was included except what was already installed on the laptop. Is this typical now with Apple, that you have to go & download your own software from the ITunes App store? And is there a purchaser's code or something showing that there is no additional charge for the software? Please help! These laptops are expensive & should come with the typical Apple tools & software! Also missing iPhoto, is this the same condition or did the seller rip us off?
Just a caution when reading this forum for ML information ...
Over 3 million have downloaded ML. Count the number of "complaints and b*tching" like some in this thread, and you will find the number in the thousands. Simple math will tell you how many users have enough of an issue, real or imagined, to actually say so. Most users who are happy are too busy just using it to say anything.
Now, as a reminder, you can download ML and load it on an external drive. That way you can play with it to see what issues *you* may have based on your specific uses. Of course external drives will respond more slowly than internal drives, but you should know if certain applications do not open.
Also, check this site for applications that simply do not work under ML as "research": http://roaringapps.com/apps:table -
I have a early 2011 Macbook pro 13 inch, I'm running Lion 10.7.4, and i want to upgrade to 10.8 Mountain Lion. Is it safe for my computer or are people experiencing problems with displays and Battery life?
Do Not post stuff about how Airplay doesnt work, because i dont have Apple TV and dont need to hear about it.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.

I have installed Windows 7 into my Macbook Pro 15 inch with Lions as operating system. (current model with 2.2 GHz i7 processor, 500 GB HD ad 5400 rpm). When I started with boot camp, the system promped me to create a disc, which I presume is for the drivers for windows 7. Now windows is intalled. What do I do with the CD that the system created for me? Also, why does the system automatically start in Win7 instead of Lion. I need to pression the option key to have it start in OS X. I thought it was supposed to be the opposite.
Insert it while you are in Windows, if it does not autostart run setup.exe.

Internal drive for Macbook Pro 13 inch with Retina display from late 2013?
Hi everyone. After some water spillage to my new computer, the guys at the Apple Store have told me that my internal hard drive needs to be replaced. No other damage was done, thankfully. I have a Macbook Pro 13 inch with Retina Display from late 2013. The Apple genius said my current hard drive has flash storage, and that my new hard drive will need that as well as the computer requires it. Does anyone know where I can buy such a hard drive? Is it possible to buy it from Apple? I am happy to buy online or in a store (I live in Australia). Also, is this Mac Pro model difficult to take apart? I'd like to install the hard drive myself.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!From the specs:

Good morning I am confronting serious problems with my Macbook pro 2013, that is runing to slow, even when I am writing this email is running with some kind of delay. I upgraded the memories to 8gb but still running slow . Please let me know what I can do to solve the problem. Thanks in advance. Fernando
1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to gather information about the state of your computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it on this page. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait for the script to run. It usually takes a couple of minutes. Then paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in your browser, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign ($) or a percent sign (%). If you get the percent sign, enter
exec bash
in the window and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know your password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line "[Process completed]" to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report your results. No harm will be done.
8. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If it happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

I have a Macbook Pro (2013) OS 10.8.1. Moved into a university house and need to use ethernet cable.

I have previously used ethernets in similar situations and never had to input information like this?
I have tried to turn of the wi-fi but that doesn't work either. I think it could be a something to do with the internet provider because virginmedia comes up on the webpage. This is what comes up:

I have MacBook Pro 13-inch with retina early 2013 can I install windows on it because I tried but an error appear ( an error occurred while copying files)
If you are on Yosemite, and have a CoreStorage volume (the default), it is not visible on the Windows side. The Apple HFS driver cannot read CS volumes.
You can verify this by running the following command in OSX Terminal.
diskutil cs list
If you get any output, such volumes will not be visible.
As a work around, if you really need it, check the 'Revertible' value. If it is yes, you can revert it to HFS+ by using the following command
diskutil cs revert
Here is the syntax for the command. The LVUUID parameter can be seen as a long string for your Logical Volume. Do not use the Logical Volume Group or any disk UUIDs. If you need the exact command, please post the output from the diskutil cs list command?
diskutil cs revert
Usage: diskutil coreStorage revert
MountPoint|DiskIdentifier|DeviceNode|lvUUID
[-stdinpassphrase | -passphrase [passphrase] | -recoverykeychain file]
Convert a CoreStorage logical volume back to its native type.
The file system must be mounted and resizable (i.e. Journaled HFS+).
Ownership of the affected disk and a passphrase (if encrypted) is required. -
HI All
This is my first post here. As mentioned I have a fall 2011 15"Macbook Pro fall 2011 with Core i7 2.0 GHZ, 8GB RAM and i was thinking of buying a 2013 Macbook Air 13". Is it a good upgrade? I do light video editing and day to day tasks like word processing, email etc.
How would the performance of the Macbook Air with the Core i5 with 4 gb Ram be compared to the old Macbook Pro 15 with Core i7 Quad 2.0 ghz with 8 GB Ram.
Thanks
SunnyThe main advantage would be a solid state drive. This will improve performance and speed moreso than RAM considerations. The disadvantage will be a loss of storage space. Moreover, one of the disadvantages of a SSD is that the more storage space used on it, the slower it becomes and the quicker it will deteroriate.
If you do video editing, I would take the GPU into consideration. Does your 15'' come with a discrete GPU? The integrated GPU on the MBA (intel HD 5000) is better than the 2011 MBP integrated GPU (3000), but it includes no discrete GPU.
Depending on how much storage space you use on your HDD currently + how many graphics intensive programs you run, you may want to consider upgrading your current machine with a SSD, upgrading your RAM on current machine to 16 gb (~160$ through macmemory or newegg), or purchasing a new Macbook Pro rather than Macbook Air.
Last thing I would add:
You will never be able to upgrade MBA RAM. It is soldered to the logicboard on the new models, non-retina included. You may wan to opt with the 8 GB RAM configuration.
