MacBook Pro Retian LATE 2012

I bought Mac Pro Retina 13' today with 1499.00 dollars at a Apple store. When I came back home, I found that it's LATE 2012, not EARLY 2013.
Is it usual to sale LATE 2013 model at Apple stores? ( I just asked I wanna buy a mac pro retina 13') Are the price different between LATE 2012 and EARLY 2013?
Can I ask to exchange it to EARLY 2013 at the store? I want to have a EARLY 2013 version.

if the store has excess inventory that hasn't been sold, they will sell the oldest product first. They have to get rid of them first before selling the newest models. FIFO, First In, First Out. Generally this isn't a problem at a high volume Apple retail store or apple.com.

Macbook Pro 17 Late 2011 vs Macbook Pro 13 2012

Hey
I have a Macbook Pro 17 Late 2011 model, its works like charm but my onyl problem with it , its too big for me , i travel a lot and its not really good for portability. I use this mac mainly for coding and developing and playing WoW (in BootCamp) but i play nothing else. So my friend said he is willing to buy from me and i decide to get a new macbook pro but the 13" for portability and its also fair enough for coding but im afraid thats its not enough for playing WoW. My friend pay me 1800€ and i found a brand new Macbook Pro for 1050€ + 300€ (for 256gb ssd and 16gb ram) so its gonna be a fast machine but maybe still not enough for WoW. What should i do?

The 17" model is one of the last that supports Express/34.
Thunderbolt does offer more expansion options, but at additional cost.
Make sure the 13" model you get has built-in optical drive unless you don't use it.
Make sure any games you develop for support the graphics card of the machine you end up getting. If they don't, don't expect them to magically work on your machine.
I typically have found the recommended graphics card is the only one that works. Minimum graphics card may at random not work, unless you do no multitasking with many games.

How to get new Macbook Pro Retina (late 2013) to detect external monitor via HDMI?

Hi everyone, this is my first Mac and for the most part it's been really, really wonderful.
This is my first major glitch: I cannot get it to detect my external display: It is an ASUS PA248Q, manufactured Aug 2012.
The HDMI cable according to my Amazon history is at least 1.3c from 2010, "Fanatic Digital Imperial Series Gold-Plated HDMI Cable (6 feet)".
It works with perfectly connecting an AmazonTV box to an old Samsung TV, with vivid clarity, unlike our cableTV signal.
Just in case, I have a new HDMI cable on order, which claims to be of newest standards.
The Macbook Pro Retina (late 2013) has the standard Intel Iris from the Haswell chips, as well as Nvidia GT 750M, the latter which I don't think has been used yet.
The ASUS display says: HDMI NO SIGNAL.
I have tried shutting them down and replugging the cable. I don't know what the ideal order is. The Macbook Pro is plugged into AC power, as suggested.
In System Preferences>Display, I press the Option key to select "Detect Displays" option (seriously unintuitive).
I have also tried resetting the NVRAM:
I shut the machine down. Pressed the power button, then quickly held the quadruplet: Option-Command-P-R (a double handful) and waited for the machine to chime a 2nd time. Tried to detect external display no luck.
Next, I reset the SMC:
I shut the machine down. Then I pressed Shift-Control-Option-Power for about 5 to 10s. Then I turned on the machine normally.
NVRAM & SMC steps were from an old youtube video, as the instructions I had did not explain how to do so clearly.
Please let me know if I"m doing something wrong.
Seems so exorbitant to pay $350 for Apple Care; that's a the cost for a whole new cheap laptop.
I will search the forums again. If anyone answers this, thank so much!

Hello there, willr314.
It sounds like you've covered most of the practical steps found in this Knowledge Base article:
Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1573#1
No video or no signal, image distortion, "snow," or flickering
Check connections
When using an external display be sure to check the following:
If you're using an Apple notebook, confirm the AC power cable or adapter is securely connected to the computer and the cable providing power to the display is also secure. It is always good to have your notebook connected to AC power when an external display is in use.
Confirm display adapters are fully seated in their respective connections and that they are supported models and for the computer and display. Refer to these articles to assist you with adapter compatibility and further configuration information:
Monitor and Display Adapter Table
About Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapters
Apple Mini DisplayPort adapters: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Thunderbolt ports and displays: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Remove all display cable extenders, KVM switches, or other like devices and retest to determine if the issue is resolved.
Try unplugging the video adapter or cable and then plug it back in.
If more than one video adapter is in use (or "daisy-chained"), troubleshoot by using only one adapter.
Example: A mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter connected to a DVI to HDMI adapter is an unsupported configuration because there is a series of adapters in use.
If available, try using a different display and or adapter (or use a different connector by using DVI instead of VGA, for instance).
Reset the system
You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.Reset the resolutionStart by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
Start up in Safe Mode.
From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
Restart your computer.
The article does offer some additional links and recommendations as well:
These articles may offer additional assistance and information about displays and video adapters:

For assistance with Retina displays, please see Frequently asked questions about using a Retina display.
If you tried all of these steps for your display and the video issues persist, contact Apple technical support or take your Apple computer to the nearest Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) for diagnosis.

Macbook Pro Retina mid 2012 low fps in bootcamp

Hello,
My English is not so good, so sorry if it's not correct, but I hope anyone could help me.
I have a Macbook Pro Retina mid 2012, 2,3 GHz Intel Core i7, 8 GB ram, 250 GB SSD.
My problem is when I go to bootcamp for gaming I get realy low fps. The most games start at 30 fps, but then they drop immediately to 8/9 fps and a second later back to 30 fps.
It's like a car, when you drive to hard you have to slow down, but then you drive to slow so you need to go faster. He speed up and a second or 2 later he kicks on the brakes and a moment later he speed up again and kicks again on the brakes.
Even with al the game setting on realy low and the lowest resolution. And that al the time in every game. My bootcamp is Windows 8 but in Windows 7 did I have the same problem. I did already a SMC reset and Pram reset and 5 clean installs. But nothing works. I installed al the updates in OS X en in Windows. There al alrealy some forums about this problem, but by them was a SMC reset enough. Maybe something is wrong with my Nvidia grapihc card. The problems starts everytime when the Nvidia card need to do this work.
it's quite an annoying problem, it's not a cheap laptop, but my old laptop ( 2 years old ) are the gaming performs better compared to this one. I think the problems start after this SMC update http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1559?viewlocale=en_US but I'm not quite sure.
Are there more people with this problem, please let me know. And maybe how you solve it.
I hope realy if any one could help me.
If you know a anser, please give it in a comment
Thanks,
Gerwin Tiemens

Transcend 1TB SSD in MacBook Pro 15" (Late 2011)

Hey Guys,
I just bought a Transcend SSD 1TB for my MacBook Pro 15" (Late 2011) with OS X Yosemite 10.10.2.
I got it for a good price but now I'm unsure if I could use it.
The SSD i bought is the TS1TSSD370. For more Info click HERE.
My questions are:
1. Is the SSD I bought compatible with my MacBook?
2. Is it a good SSD to use with a MacBook?
3. Can I use a 1TB SSD? Because on the Apple Specs Site for my MacBook Model it's doesn't say anything about a 1TB SSD.
4. Do I have to consider anything special when using this SSD?
It would be really great if someone could help me out!
Thanks in advance!
Max

I use the Carbon Copy Cloner method as outlined by BobRz above.
I'll be installing another SSD (higher capacity) whenever it gets here (Dec 3-Jan. 03) and I'll install the new SSD in my MacBook Pro first and then using my old SSD in an enclosure to transfer data.
I've had my current internal SSD in my Mac since April of 2012 and my 16GB of RAM since about May of 2012. I've a Crucial SSD (soon, two!) and use Crucial RAM, too.
You may want to take a peek at my user tip - Ugrading Your MacBook Pro with a Solid State Drive. It's a bit dated (I'll be udating it pretty soon) but should give you a good start. Currently, I'm recommending Samsung 840 Pros (NOT EVO) and the Crucial M500 series.
Good luck,
Clinton

MacBook Pro 15'' mid 2012 does not boot

Hi
We upgraded our MacBook Pro 15'' (mid 2012) we changed the memory from 4GB to 16GB, changed the hard-disk for a 512GB Samsung SSD and installed 10.10 Yosemite (clean install)
Everything worked OK, we installed some software. All of a sudden the laptop switched itself of. We thought the battery was empty but as it turned out, the notebook is dead. When starting we hear the clicking sound of the DVD drive but that's it, no chime. The screen stays black although we think we see some backlight, very weakly.
We tried a lot, putting back the old drive and memory but the behavior is the same. We removed all memory and then the MBP beeps, but does not start.
Reset PRAM, reset SMC, removed the battery, nothing helps.
- Is the beeping an indication that the CPU still works?
- What can be the cause of this?
- What can we do?
Thanks in advance for the help.
Walter

It is NOT a 2012 but a late 2011 MacBook

Does the new Macbook Pro 15" (late 2013) supports 4K via Thunderbolt/Displayport?

I understand that the new Macbook Pro 15" (late 2013 with Nvidia) supports 4K screen resolutions via HDMI at low hertz. But does it support 4K via Thunderbolt/Displayport? I read on Intel's web that the NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M with 2GB memory in theory can support it. Would be important as a range of new 4K 32" monitors will come out over the next year. Would be great for photo, video editing etc.

I also am very confused by this because per apple's support page it only supports 4K via HDMI at 30Hz but SHOULD support 60Hz via a mini display port 1.2 specification built into thunderbolt 2.
However, I think it does include 60Hz support (although not mentioned on apple's website). My evidence of this is that on the ifixit teardown they found a an Intel DSL 5520 Thunderbolt 2 controller which according to Intel's and Wikipedia's website is falcon ridge which means it should support Display port 1.2 natively. Plus, on apple's thunderbolt page they specifically mention connecting a 4K display to a macbook pro through the thunderbolt port (not which is suggested by the support page listed above):
"Now with Thunderbolt 2 built into the new Mac Pro and MacBook Pro with Retina display, you can connect the latest 4K desktop displays and get double the bandwidth for your peripherals. And the two generations of Thunderbolt technology are compatible with each other."
Also, the Apple mini displayport support page has not been updated since 2012 but I believe it is just showing old information
The BIG piece of evidence against the new macbook pro's supporting 4K through the thunderbolt port is that on apple's tech specs page they specifically mention 4K under the HDMI section but make no mention of it under the thunderbolt 2 section.

What is the max memory allowed on a macbook pro 15" (late 2011), and what speed is the max speed allowed?

Hello,
I own a Macbook Pro 15" (late 2011) and I would like to upgrade the memory. I want to go with two 8gb sticks but if the motherboard only supports 8gb then I will have to stick with 8gb. Also, the ram that I have in currently, which is the 4gb that came with the mac, is 1333 Mz. Would I be able to upgrade to 1600 Mz on this laptop?

Max is 16 GBs. Do not attempt to use memory with specs that differ from those required by your hardware.
Maximum Memory
16 GB (Actual) 8 GB (Apple)
Memory Slots
2 - 204-pin PC-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM

Resolution issue with macbook pro 13 (late 2013) and dell u2711

I have a Dell U2711 (native resolution 2560x1440) that I use without issue with a macbook pro late 2007 (running 10.10.x), various iMacs and Macbook air 2011 running 10.10. When I say without issue, the display works at its native resolution.
Last week we got a MacBook Pro 13in, late 2013 model.
If I connect this macbook via either thunderbolt connection to the u2711 using either DVI port on the dell, the maximum resolution that I can use is 1920x1080. I am using apple mini displayport to DVI adaptors (I have tried 2 different ones and 2 different DVI cables, with no improvement). Clicking option + scaled in sys prefs does not give the native resolution as an option.
However, I just discovered that if I use a DVI to HDMI adaptor and I connect the macbook to the display I get the full native resolution without issue (2560x1440).
I have zapped the pram, powered down the display etc etc etc and it made no difference.
I would prefer to use the mini DIsplayPort to DVI adaptor rather than HDMI, any suggestions appreciated.
TIA.

MacBook Pro 15" Late 2011 Problems with iMac 27" Late 2009 TDM

Hi,
I just got problems with my iMac 27" Late 2009 (Mini-DisplayPort) and my MacBook Pro 15" Late 2011 (Thunderbolt).
When I try to use my iMac as external monitor for my MacBook, there are massive glitches and graphical bugs on my second screen.
I bought a MDP-to-MDP wire from Belkin which works perfect on other computers.
I tried these things:
- Disconnected MagSafe from MacBook + unplugged all USB devices + switched graphics to discrete.
- Shut down all computers ... then booted MBP, iMac and triggered CMD+F2
- SMC, PRAM reset on both devices
The cable works, because:
17" MacBook Pro Late 2011 works perfectly on my iMac screen with my Belkin wire!
I connected my MacBook Pro 15" to a 27" Cinema Display and it works flawless.
After that I plugged it out and tested it again with my iMac screen -> suddenly it works.
Retriggering CMD+F2 or replugging breaks it again with massive bugs.
The MacBook Pro 17" is on 10.7.2, 15" is on 10.7.3, but I also tried to trigger dual screen in 10.7.0 setup with the same issue.
Maybe its a problem with the internal 6750M of my MacBook Pro 15"?
The 6770M of the 17" is working well.
Sample Video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_pgc52syes
All updates/firmware updates of iMac and MacBook Pro are installed.
Any solutions?
Greets,
Kai
