MacBook Pro desktop layout with built-in and ext monitor.

Hi,
I have been experiencing a problem that has become a major annoyance and inconvenience. It has to do with the layout of the icons on my desktop and how it becomes scrambled every time I change from my internal to my external monitor and vice-versa.
After organizing the files on my desktop in a specific arrangement I am always frustrated by how they become totally scrambled and disorganized once I change from one monitor to another.
Is there a way to avoid it ? I always use my view preference to "snap to grid" as I like to arrange my files in a specific order that makes sense to me. I would like to be able to have the MacBook Pro learn or memorize my preference for each of the two monitors so that changing from one to the other wouldn't require me to go back and organize the files all over again.
Any suggestions on how to address this problem will be very appreciated.
Thank you.

I have the same problem, but I am using Dell U2711 as the main screen, the Macbook is closed. It crashes, or rather logs me out an back in, when I try to run any photo editing software - Aperture or Iphoto. And I got this monitor to do some photo editing. I am pretty sure that the monitor is ok, it works flawlessly with my PS3 and satellite receiver in full hd mode. And my macbook has just been repaired - the nvidia problem, so it also should be ok and works normally when not connected to the external screen.
Any help Apple?

Right, MacBook Pro 17" early 2011(Built March) and my new OCZ sata III 6G not working, when is Apple going to admit there is a problem with the Intel's 6 Series Chipset. In System Information it says "Link Speed: 6 Gigabit" which is sata III.

My MacBook Pro 17" early 2011(built March) and my new OCZ sata III 6G are not working together, when is Apple going to admit there is a problem with the Intel's 6 Series Chipset. In System Information it says "Link Speed: 6 Gigabit" which is sata III and in my MacBook Pro it does not work.
Now MacBook Pro 17" early 2011 built May onward do not have this problem it was fixed in the Intel's 6 Series Chipset. (So there is a problem). Cam I have my MacBook Pro fixed please.

After biting the bullet and ordering more RAM, my computer now is working a ton better. So that must have been the main issue. With 8 GB RAM, I can now even run Parallels fluidly (better than my work PC!) where before simple things like logging in to my MBP after reboot could take forever.
The place I went to had several other people getting RAM upgrades at the same time as me, so between this and other comments I've seen in discussions here and elsewhere on the Internets, I take it to mean that either Apple should bump up the base RAM on its new machines, and/or stop charging so much for additional RAM.
I refused to believe a Pro machine bought with Lion installed would come with too little RAM for light to medium usage, but it was apparently the case. I'll mark this as a correct answer and hope some other poor soul will come across this thread and be helped by it.

iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

Recently bought a MacBook Pro 13 inch with apple care and since day one has not been able to hold a charge more than an hour. Is this covered? What can and will apple do for me?

So I bought my MacBook Pro 13 inch with AppleCare protection about 2 weeks ago and from the moment it came out of the box I noticed that the battery was draining very quickly. Perhaps in the midst of my excitement of having a new computer I ignored it thinking it could somehow get better but obviously it has not. Average after being fully charged from being dead the batter lasts maybe an hour to an hour and a half. I'm assuming apple will take care of this seeing as it came to me like this but that's exactly my question, will they? Any information about what they cover or how to go about getting this fixed is very much appreciated!

You are covered under the 1-year warranty.
You have a 14 day grace period to exchange it for one that works.
Past that, get it looked at

Brand new Macbook Pro not pairing with Apple Keyboard and mouse!

Hi all, I have a brand new Macbook Pro and an older wireless Apple Keyboard and Mouse (that were being previously used with my imac G5).
Now I want to use these for this macbook. I am finding that they are being recognised but not pairing up?
Do you need to stop the previous pairing with the imac before they will pair with the Macbook?
Or do I need to update specific software? (I would have thought it has all the necessary updates already installed).
I am running Snow leopard.
I have brand new batteries in the keyboard and mouse.
I really appreciate any helpful advice. Sorry if the answer is obvious!
Thanks

Hi there, i had a problem pairing an Apple wireless keyboard with my MacBook pro but managed to solve it.
The default passkey option in Bluetooth setup assistant is 'automatic' which will (if the MacBook can 'see' the keyboard in the first instance) then say something like 'your device may prompt you to enter the following passcode 1234 5678'
Obviously the keyboard doesn't provide any feedback - I went ahead and typed the number and hit the return key a number of times - the MacBook then displayed a 'pairing failed - you may have entered the incorrect passkey' message.
What i was doing wrong was keying only numbers - when i keyed 1234[SPACE]5678 + RETURN pairing worked.
I had thought the 'gap' in the passcode was to make it easier to read, not that it implied a space in the passcode.
Hope that helps.

I have the late 2013 Macbook Pro 15 inch with apple care, and the display flickers in a certain spot at a certain brightness. Has anyone ever had this issue, and what did you do about it?

I doubt this is a GPU issue i've restarted my Mac, but the shape of the flickering area is in a cone shape comming from the bottom edge from the right side in about 2 inches. I'm thinking this is a failing display?

Apple will cover it if it was an accident or defect. Take it to a nearby Genius bar. I'm guessing its a graphics card or display issue. But the symptoms of a damaged GPU for me were different. I had issues with my last 13" MacBook Pro non-retina mid 2012. If I set it down or moved my machine, my screen would flicker and the pixels would be completely off and the whole system would freeze, even if I wasn't using it. If it fronze when I didn't use it, it would get REALLY hot. Like I said, if it's an accident and less than a year old, Apple will cover repairs. If it's older than a year and it was accidental, AppleCare won't cover it. If it was a defect, it will be covered as long as the AppleCare hasn't expired. If you buy a MacBook through BestBuy, you could buy BestBuy Care which covers accidental and defects. My friend fried his last machine with water and apple was going to charge him the price of a new machine and BestBuy charged about $900 and then he paid extra to upgrade to a new retina display.

Can I buy a Macbook pro retina 13" with 16gb RAM and i7 processor in an physical Apple Store in Spain?

I´m looking a Macbook pro 13 inch, but I would buy it with an i7 processor and 16Gb ram. Can I buy it in a spanish physical Apple Store or only in the Apple Store online?
Thanks

At least in Spain, some Apple Retail Stores have got specific build-to-order MacBooks Pro available, but they are just because they are sold better than any other build-to-order MacBook Pro.
However, as Kappy said, it's quite difficult you can get one with the configuration you want. Have a look at the list of Apple Retail Stores in Spain, choose one and call them to see if there's one available > http://www.apple.com/es/retail/storelist The best way to buy a build-to-order Mac is through Apple Online Store

Macbook Pro sleep Problems with Time Machine and Time Capsule

I recently installed a time capsule as a Router and a Time Machine backup device for 2 macs in the house.
Unfortunately, I found that my 2011 macbook pro 15' updates the time machine backups even when the lid is closed and in sleep.
When I wake the macbook pro, it hangs and I have to reset the mac to restart.
This did not happen when I was using a firewire hard drive with the time machine.
My question is:
Is there a way to prevent the time machine to backup when the macbook pro is in sleep mode?
My mac is not equiped with power nap so it is not suppose to be doing this.
Thanks

Edwin,
I assume that since the repair of the sparsebundle failed you still cannot open the sparsebundle in Finder and get the message:
The following backups could not be opened:
Imac of E.sparsebundle because there are no activatible filesystems
If the sparsebundle cannot be opened in Finder, then the chances that Time Machine can open them are nil in my opinion. Time Machine, in effect is just going to open the sparsebundle as Finder is attempting to dot, then it gives you a fnacy display, but the underlying issue with the sparesbundle is the same for both methods of access.
Do you, by chance hav a bootable backuo of your Snow Leopard system?
If so can you access the TM backups with it??
You didn't change the Time Capsules Network Password did you?? see this.
I looked to see if I could find anythng about the error codes you mentioned in your original post and so far can;t find anything about them.

Thank you very much!

Macbook pro 2009 unibody with white screen and kernel panics

I upgrade to Lion a month or two ago and things have been working fine. A few days ago, I try to wake my computer from sleep and it freezes on a white screen. I reboot only to continue to find the white screen. I hear the chime every time on boot. From then on, I am having different responses on startup.
Initially I could boot to single user mode no problem, but would continue to get white screen on regular boot. I tried to reinstall lion, and on restart midway through install I got the half-gray "you need to restart" kernel panic screen.
Yesterday at apple store, it would not boot to single user, OS select, verbose, etc. modes. They told me it was logic board or hard drive.
Bough a SSD, successfully installed Snow Leopard, and then continued to have similar kernel panics.
Now, replaced originaly harddrive and successfully reinstalled Lion, although got a kernel panic on the halfway reboot (log posted below). Install finished, and now up and running for about an hour. Decided to reboot to check, and big surprise, one more kernel panic. (2nd log posted below).
Is this a logic board? Seems like the HD is not the problem since same issue with a SSD.
Any thoughts greatly appreciated, apply was very unhelpful (I am out of warranty, no applecare). Thanks

Run the Apple Hardware Test:
How to run hardware diagnostics for an Intel Mac
Boot from your original OS X Installer Disc One that came with your computer. After the chime press and hold down the "D" key until the diagnostic screen appears. Run the extended tests for a minimum of two or three hours. If any error messages appear note them down as you will need to report them to the service tech when you take the computer in for repair.
Some "common" error indicators:
SNS - sensor error
MEM - memory error
HDD - hard disk drive error
MOT - fan error
Cannot guarantee that it will reveal anything. As for using the other GPU all I say is you can try switching to it in Energy Saver preferences.

MacBook Pro starts up with blinking folder and question mark in it. Is there a fix to this issue or has the HDD crashed for good?

I startup my mac and I see a white screen background with a folder icon in the center and a question mark blinking in the center. Called Apple and the rep says this is probably a HDD crash. Only solution is to take it into a Apple store and get a replacement HDD which would cost $300 and upwards. This mac book is about 15 months old and cost $1300. Needless to say I'm highly upset. Does anyone have a fix to this?

Snow Leopard is back on the online Apple Store, at least in some countries. In the US:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
If it's not listed on the web site of the Apple Store in your country, call the online Apple Store,; they may still have copies of Snow Leopard available .
If they no longer have it available, you'll need to look to private sellers, and the prices are rising quickly. If you buy from a private seller, make sure you get the retail disk set (white label with a picture of a Snow Leopard), not the system disks from another model of Mac (grey label).
Once you get the disk, install the OS and run Software Update to get to the latest version of 10.6 and iTunes. You should then be able to sync.
Regards.

How can I mirror my macbook pro desktop through Airport Extreme to a digital projector with only VGA and DVI inputs?

How can I mirror my Macbook Pro desktop through Airport Extreme to a digital projector with only a DVI & VGA inputs?? Want to use it for presantation like Keynote/ Pages.

Never mind, I solved it. Didn't know the converter needed a power source to operate (duh!) Now I have that, it works just fine.......
