MacBook Pro 8,2 beeps at random times long after startup and routine use

This issue seems elusive on the forums as everyone seems to get stuck on the POST beep codes heard only at boot up and this is not related to that. The issue is specific to the MBP 8,2 model as we have dozens of models that came before and after and not a single one suffers from this beeping. I've taken both models in for Warranty support and hardware tests presented no hardware errors.
My feeling is that this issue is realted to power management. Of the two types of beep tones we get - one quieter that stops only by closing the cover and sending the Mac into hibernation and one that is far louder (it has frequently been described like a fire alarm by nearby users) and stops only by pulling the power cable from the laptop. In this latter situation, the Mac shuts off instantly making it clear that the system cannot switch to battery power correctly - further evidence of power management issues.
I'm hoping that someone has come across this issue and can separate it from error beeps related to badly installed RAM.
Also of note is that the battery on this model of Mac laptop are not removable.

First off there is no model after the 8.2 MBP 15". That is the latest model.
Since this a fairly new MBP you would better off calling Apple tech support. They will certainly know what those beep are and what is causing them.

    Hi Aparana.rahul,
    The beeps during the startup of your MacBook Pro indicate that it may need to be serviced. See this article for further information -
    OS X Mavericks: If you hear beeps when your computer starts up
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14206
    Note that while the article title says it is for computers running Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks, the same information applies to other versions.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • My Macbook pro was stolen before I had time to register it and I want to inform apple

    My MacBook pro was stolen two days after I purchased it. I did not register my product nor did I have time to set up any tracking software. I still have the box and the registration/Serial Number. How can I inform Apple in hopes that they can help me locate my MacBook?
    Thanks -

    Unfortunately Apple cannot help you track it.
    You say "before I had time to set up tracking software", but a new Mac will specifically ask you, as you're first setting it up, if you want to activate iCloud and Find My Mac. If you answered "yes", you can go to http://icloud.com and track or lock it from there.

  • My Macbook Pro Retina (2012) freezes at random times

    Hi,
    This usually happens when I have Google Chrome up, but it happens about a couple times every week. I would be on Google Chrome and click another tab only to find a blank page. Then the rest of my screen becomes unclickable, soon followed by an unresponsive cursor. At this point, I have to hard power-down by holding the power button. My computer seems perfectly fine afterward, but I'm concerned that I will lose my work if for example I'm working on an important paper or project.
    Has anyone else run into this problem and found a solution? Thanks for your help!

    I made a post here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5481839?start=2715&tstart=0#24833543

  • After upgrading to yosemite my macbook pro late 2011 does a random sound from time to time.

    After upgrading to yosemite my macbook pro late 2011 does a random sound from time to time. Its completely random and i already checked all apps in use and its not from them.

    Sounds like Notifications app.
    Maybe some other app. In SystemPreferences->Users&Groups->LoginItems tab: remove all entries with the minus sign underneath. This will not uninstall anything, you have to start those apps by hand now. Restart.
    Still there?
    Yes: Restart again while holding the shift key, this will start the mac in SafeMode: only the necessary items are loaded to run.
    Still there?
    Yes: Make an etrecheck list and post it here.
    No: Restart, put the items in the LoginItems back, one by one, restart after each entry, and you will find the "culprit"
    Please report accordingly. I will be back in 24 hours.

  • Can't install Snow Leopard on Macbook Pro MC700 - 3 beeps after installer starts.

    can't install Snow Leopard on Macbook Pro MC700 - 3 beeps after installer starts (10.6.3 retail). Lion installer starts normally. What's a problem?

    I have the same trouble, I try installing rEFI but when I try start my Pro from DVD doesn't recognize.
    Can I start from USB Memory? with files from SL DVD? or have some thing else?
    I have original DVD of SL 10.6.3, if I buy the latest stable version, can I install? or the EFI firmware with Lion change again?
    I try to use Lion, more than one week but I can't, and some app that I use for my profession, doesn't work, I really need downgrade to SL.
    Really Thanks for any help.

  • My 3 year-old macbook pro is very slow. I have run disk utility and virus scan with no improvement. The "beach ball" will spin for minutes at a time when opening, closing or changing windows. Apple Store looked at it a few months ago with no help.

    my 3 year-old macbook pro is very slow. I have run disk utility and virus scan with no improvement. The "beach ball" will spin for minutes at a time when opening, closing or changing windows. Apple Store looked at it a few months ago with no help. What can I do?

    Under CPU: 3.5% user; 5% system; 91% idle; 441 threads; 90 processes.
    Under System: out of 2GB - 54.7MB free; 530MB wired; 603MB active; 862MB inactive; 1.95GB used.
    Is too much of the system memory tied up? If so, what can I do to free some up?

  • I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt or damaged. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    Perhaps the PDF files are corrupted.
    Hit the command key and spacebar, a blue Spotlight in the upper right hand corner appears, now type Preview and press return on the Preview program.
    Now you can try opening the PDF's from the file menu and see what's going on.
    If they are corrupted, perhaps they are trojans from your Windows PC or gotten from a bad location online.
    Download the free ClamXav and run a scan on the possibly infected folder.

  • HT201250 which external hard drive should I choose/use as I am setting up Time Machine on my MacBook Pro 15 for the very first time?

    Which external hard drive should I use/choose as I am setting up Time Machine on my MacBook Pro 15 for the very first time?

    Any of these SATA HDDs that are at least the same size as your internal HDD (preferably larger capacity).  In addition you will need an enclosure, preferably one with a Firewire as well as a USB connection.

    Thank you!

    No I have not tried those things. I don't even know what that means I suppose I have the newest version of aperature; I just bought it 4 days ago.
