MacBook Pro Retina EFI Update 1.0 taking a long time
Does the MacBook Pro Retina EFI Update 1.0 take a long time - mine is just saying "Waiting..." after 20 minutes. Updating from the App Store. Thanks
hi, i wasnt able to find the EFI update in my App store. My computer is also MBPro Retina Mid 2012.
would you mind telling me your boot rom version after you successfully installed this EFI updated? (Anyone?)
mine is:
Boot ROM Version: MBP101.00EE.B02
Although i dont remember installing this EFI update. After I installed 10.8.2, i was only able to see the iphoto update, and
after that, nothing. Until now, there's no update from App Store. -
Macbook Pro Retina EFI Update 1.0 will not remove from Updates.
Why does the Macbook Pro Retina EFI Update 1.0 constantly remain in the Updates, I have installed it 10 times now but every time I check for Updates it says its available for me to download, I thought the Updates were removed once installed?

I have Windows 8.1 installed on my Macbook Pro Retina (Late 2013) and it keeps on crashing with a WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR BSOD error. Is this an issue with the bootcamp driver not compatible with Windows 8.1? or is there something I can do to fix this.
I also keep getting WHEA-Logger Event-ID 19 warning events in the Windows Event Logs with the following details.
A corrected hardware error has occurred.
Reported by component: Processor Core
Error Source: Corrected Machine Check
Error Type: Cache Hierarchy Error
Processor APIC ID: 3
The details view of this entry contains further information.likely win8.1 dont have official bootcamp support yet
1/3 of my logins into win8.1 result in a fatal bluescreen
was the same deal when I installed win8 before official support
and when the drivers with official support was released the issue went away -

Macbook Pro - mail account. Deleted messages keep coming back!
Hey,
I've deleted several messages (they were also in my drafts) and they keep popping back up in my sent mail and inbox, sometimes multiple copies of the same message. I want those messages gone. They keep coming back!!!! How do I fix this?In Mail you have to move the message to gmail trash. Just deleting the message assigns it the delete label but doesn't delete it. You can truly delete the messages in web gmail, however.
I hope this helps. -
Macbook Pro Retina EFI update 1.2 doesn't clear from software update list after installing
I've had this problem for a few weeks.
I install the update via the App Store, the system restarts, but afterwards I get a notice from the App Store that the same update needs to be installed. If I look further down the list of installed items it does record the update as being installed, but I'm not sure if it was really installed.
Note: I have tried to install the update manually w/o the App Store, but I still get a notice from the App Store after restart that the update needs installing.
This isn't huge deal, but it's kind of annoying that I'm not sure if the update was installed or not, and frankly, my OCD kicks in whenever I see that this update is still not clearing from the list of items to be installed.
By the way, the update has to do with the nvidia card not losing performance after the computer wakes up.
Thank youHi there
However, I spoke to Apple and was given the following advice:

Macbook Pro retina 2,3 (10.8) keeps crashing in some apps.
I encountered this for the first time today, I load an application such Sketchup, Evernote or uTorrent, and after a couple of click, the rainbow ball appear.. Under the activity monitor, I can see that when an application crash, the cpu% top to 99,8%. Also, I need to force quit the crashing application to be able to shut down my computer... This is really confusing, I installed 10.8 a week ago and never met any problem, what can and should do? Thanks for help.
Try opening Disk Utility and repairing permissions.

Brand new macbook pro retina issues after yosmite update
My Macbook pro retina was working fine until I had Mavericks, but after updating to Yosemite the following problems has started.
Touch pad stops responding now and then
Fails to open launchpad sometimes
Boot camp wizard is missing
Scrolling doesn't work quite often in Safari
Fan starts running when cpu is cool without load, but fails to run when hot while playing games
Battery performance is dropped.
Computer has become comparatively sluggish.
Doesn't display 'about this mac'.I did call them and it seems there is no solution except sending it back to them and getting a new one.
This is by far the most strange issue I have seen. Seems more like a hardware issue than software.
Thanks for you suggestion though. I will post an update ones this case gets resolved. -
My Macbook Pro Retina keeps freezing on up...
My Macbook Pro Retina will freeze on start up just about 1 out of every 3 cold boots and it's been happening for a while now. It will start up to the log in screen and after I type in my pw and log in it will freeze with a black screen. I'll close the lid and the display stays on and I have to hard reset it for it to work again. Has this been happening to anyone else or do I maybe have a faulty macbook? Any ideas?
Hi,
I have exactly the same symptoms on my MacBook Pro Retina. It freezes with a black screen right after login, half the time. I have to hard reboot... sometimes the second boot gives the same result, and at the third boot it's ok.
I've installed gfxCardStatus to check if it's an issue related to the graphic card switch, but this hasn't given me any clues.
Sometimes my session opens normally (no freeze), but the system becomes really instable when I launch an app which makes use of the Nvidia graphic card. For example, Adobe Illustrator. In that case, Illustrator freezes and the system is slowly becoming unresponsive, even after a force kill af that application.
It's really annoying, I can't work on that machine... it's like the Nvidia graphic card is half dead.
I hope it's a software issue, not hardware.
If we could have an official answer from Apple, that would be great!
Thanks! -
MST Support for MacBook Pro Retina Late 2013 - DisplayPort 1.2 - Will it ever happen? (with sources)
So back in October, I purchased a brand new Macbook Pro Retina (MBPr), fully loaded with top of the line specs. I was soooo excited to have Thunderbolt 2 tech which Intel AND Apple describes as having DisplayPort 1.2a compatibility - which up to this point is unfortunately NOT the case. The point of the information/questions and requests in this article is to engage a conversation about the issues of not having MST support after Apple falsely mislead their consumers to think otherwise - especially when it is clear the MBPr is capable. Please read on...
Apple advertises that the Thunderbolt 2 ports on BOTH the MBPr and the new Mac Pro (NMP) will have 4K Display support with the famed 20gb/sec Ports (DisplayPort 1.2 only requires a little above 17gb/sec). Now that the 10.9.1 update has been released, we have failed to see MST or Multi-Stream Transport enabled on the MBPr Late 2013. Now, as for the New Mac Pro- it DOES have MST enabled in 10.9.1 with the AMD GPUs. For all of you out there that's questioning what this means, short answer is basically the Mac Pro will be able to power a 4K Monitor at 60Hz through the Thunderbolt 2 Port but the New MBPr is stuck with only HDMI 1.4 support which tops out at 4K 30Hz. 30Hz is unacceptable for anything but movies or a photo slideshow. At 30Hz the cursor will jump across the screen, eliminating any of the benefits of 4K.
BUT it gets worse...
Apple can be seen advertising that the new MBPr 15" model can power a 4K monitor THROUGH the Thunderbolt 2 Port here: http://www.apple.com/thunderbolt - This article quotes the following:
"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."
Does this not let the consumer assume that the newest MBPr will be able to drive a 4K display through the Thunderbolt 2 Port? I would say yes it does, but at the time I wrote this, the TB2 Ports can't power a 4K display because, as previously stated, MST is disabled in Mavericks for the 15" MBPr Late 2013.
NOW, later on Apple posted the following article on 4K support here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6008
4K support on the MacBook Pro (Retina, Late 2013)
MacBook Pro supports 4K displays and Ultra HD TVs at the following resolutions and refresh rates with the built-in HDMI port:
3840 x 2160 at 30 Hz refresh rate
4096 x 2160 at 24 Hz refresh rate (mirroring is not supported at this resolution)
In the article above the New Mac Pro is listed as having support for a 4K Display with the Thunderbolt 2 Port (or MST DisplayPort 1.2a Technology) at 60Hz with no problem. This leads myself and many others to believe that MST will NEVER be enabled on the newest MacBook Pro Retina with Nvidia GPUs. Yes, 4K IS supported but ONLY through the HDMI 1.4 port, which has the limitation of only 30hz. This two-faced advertising is extremely upsetting to a LOT of people, including myself.
Interestingly enough, THIS IS NOT a hardware issue. If one ventures into Windows 8.1 via Bootcamp and connects a 4K Display via the Thunderbolt 2 (or through DP1.2) Port, the Display registers at 60Hz, thus proving that the Thundberbolt 2 Hub Controller is completely capable of MST DisplayPort functionality. Clearly this a driver issue with Apple, Nvidia or Intel or any combination. What Apple has done here is forcing any professional that desires stable and clear 4K technology through their MacBook Pro Retina to do so only using Windows 8.1 on their own machines! Definitely an oxymoron if you ask me...
Later on when the Mac Pro was ready for ordering, Apple placed the Sharp PN-K321 as a compatible option for a 4K Display. On the Store page featuring the (over three thousand dollar) Sharp 4K display, located here http://store.apple.com/us/product/HD971LL/A/sharp-32-pn-k321-4k-ultra-hd-led-mon itor?fnode=53 Apple states the following:
"Note that 4K DisplayPort operation is only compatible with the new Mac Pro (Late 2013)."
All of that being said, and I'm terribly sorry for my wordy ranting...
This brings me to a final two requests to ANYONE reading this post:
a) Has anyone working with the new 10.9.2 Beta Update seen evidence that DisplayPort 1.2 capabilities will be enabled for the new MacBook Pro Retina (Nvidia 750M) with the promised "Graphics Driver Updates" within the next Mavericks update?
and
b) To others that purchased or were/are thinking of purchasing a new MacBook Pro Retina with TB2 Ports: If you are just as upset as me about this crushing blow to consumers that just purchased a $3,000 laptop that were promised something that wasn't delivered - I urge you please, write to Apple and let them know they are making a mistake. You can do this though the support page or through http://www.apple.com/feedback
Thank you for your precious time, and if anyone has anything to contribute to this issue, please jump in....GOOD NEWS!
The Mavericks 10.9.3 update adds official support for Thunderbolt 2, 4K!
I'm not sure if you will be able to daisy chain anything to the 4K display. I've read that the design of Thunderbolt 2 includes support for DisplayPort 1.2 multi-stream (MST), which allows this type of daisy chaining with 4K, but we don't know if Apple has this supported on it's machines. Apparently it's been buggy in development because the graphics driver needs to work correctly with the Thunderbolt 2 host controller. I'm sure they will work it out if they haven't already.
The above is all via found information on this topic, but you can follow some more discussion here:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1713876
One more note on Thunderbolt worth sharing: always keep your fastest peripherals closer to the computer in the chain. If you have a TB1 device directly connected to the computer, anything further down the chain will be limited to TB1 speed/capability regardless of it's native speed. Always connect TB2 devices first, and save anything TB1 for the end of the chain. -
At my desk I usually plug 2 external monitor (one via HDMI, one via Display port) and an external APPLE USB keyboard and BT touchpad.
Most of the time I unplug the HDMI cable the built-in keyboard and touchpad stop working.
This is very annoying issue because I have to force a shutdown to fix that.
Only sometimes it got fixed by plugging back the HDMI cable.
I already patched with MacBook Pro Retina EFI Update v1.3 and Issue persists.
Is there anyone else with the same issue?
Any idea on how to fix it?Have you done an SMC reset lately? Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
May or may not work. -

Macbook Pro Retina 15 + iPad 3
Dear forum users,
Usually when I plug in my iPad 3 into the left USB port of my Macbook Pro Retina 15 inch the iPad keeps jumping between connected and disconnected. Weirdly enough this doesn't happen in the right USB port.
It also happens inconsistently, when i plugged in the Apple Keyboard with USB ports it worked fine. When directly plugged in it gives the errors. Sometimes it does work normally but usually I have the problem as mentioned above.
I am using a third party 30-pin connecter cable.
Thanks in advance.Hey there evenwerk,
Do the USB connection issues, where your iPad disconnects or isn’t recognized by your MacBook Pro, occur when using the USB cable that came with the device? The article linked below provides a lot of great information and troubleshooting tips that will resolve most issues like this one.
