Macbook pro anodised peeled off.

I have been using my macbook pro late 2011 since almost 17 months now. I started notice that there are some areas, especially on the latches, that the anodised peeled off. It is not that visible though, only same flakes and dots. While, i am well aware that aluminum anodised may peeled off (my iPhone 5 black also has the same issue), is this normal with macbook pro?

I am not aware of any latches on a MBP.
Pitting and discoloration can occur on the body of a MBP for users with a body chemistry allows for that phenomenon. Unfortunate, but it happens.
Ciao.

Problem of the anti-glare coating on 15" Macbook Pro display peeling off?

Hi, bought my Macbook Pro 15" with Retina display about a year ago. Recently discovered the anti-glare coating peeling off, leaving ugly 'bald' spots on the screen bezel sides (thankfully, not in the main display area!). Only use the provided polishing cloth to clean the screen of any fingerprints, etc. Once in a while, I do wet the cloth with a drop or two of water to get rid of more stubborn marks. I've stopped cleaning the screen with the cloth.
Anyone else faced the same problem? How did you resolve it?

Same problem here with a 2013 MBP 13''.
Seems to be common and might be covered by warranty: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1729779

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
It looks like your NVIDIA graphic is damaged. If you need your computer now, you can fix the computer downloading gfxCardStatus and selecting the option to use only the integrated graphic, so that kernel panic won't appear anymore. Note that you won't be able to use the NVIDIA graphic, so the graphic performance may be worse than with this graphic.
Of course, that's a temporary fix, because you should take the computer to an Apple Store as soon as possible to get the Mac repaired. As the NVIDIA graphic is not soldered, the repair won't be expensive

MacBook Pro just shut off, disk utility gives a strange report, please help

you could have a hardware problem with your drive though.
verify the disk (not permissions) using disk utility and if it reports any errors, boot from the leopard install DVD and repair the drive using disk utility there.
you can change the name of the computer and get rid of (2) in system preferences->sharing.

Hi...
Use Lion Recovery to repair the startup disk if necessary, or reinstall the Mac OS X.
he cant use his key board
You'll need to use a wired (USB) keyboard.

My one day old MacBook pro just turned off and it won't come back on either through mains or battery power

My one day old MacBook pro just turned off and it won't come back on either through mains or battery power it's as if the unit is completely dead. Even with the mains plugged in there is no green or orange light to say its charging or full charged. The battery was fully charged anyway seconds before the screen went off.

When you say no green or orange light are you refering to the little led on the magsafe connector? That could mean either the charger/cable are bad or the circuitry in the MBP is faulty. Since this is a brand new MBP best bet is to take it back to an Apple Retail store and have the genius bar staff take a look. They can determine if it needs to be reparired or replaced.

Macbook Pro suddenly turned off, not charging either.

My Macbook Pro suddenly turned off last night. I've tried all the troubleshoots listed in the user manual. Thought it was just batt low but it would not even charge, neither the battery sign located on the left side wouldn't show any sign/blink/color. Please help me, it's just 8-month old and Im not sure what could be the reason of this problem. PLEASE AND THANK YOU

Hi i'm sorry but what is SMC?
System Management Controller
The System Management Controller (SMC) is responsible for many low-level functions on Intel-based Macs. These functions include:
Responding to presses of the power button
Responding to display lid opening and closing on portable Macs
Battery management
Thermal management
The SMS (Sudden Motion Sensor)
Ambient light sensing
Keyboard backlighting
Status Indicator Light (SIL) management
Battery status indicator lights
Selecting an external (instead of internal) video source for some iMac displays

Yes, but the part cut off the bottom of the first page should appear at the top of the second. No content should be lost, just split between pages.
Safari makes little or no attempt to keep a line of print or a picture from splitting across pages, seemingly just imaging the web page as one large image and printing so many inches or millimeters of the image per page.
