Macbook Pro Retina screen black sound adjust working

Hi,
I already had this issue a few times. Sometimes my Macbook screen doesn't wake up after a display sleep.
It looks like the system is online because I hear the sound when adjusting the volume.
When I press the brightness adjust nothing happens and the sound adjusting isn't working anymore.
Normally I hard reset my MacBook but the last time I wasn't sure if it was my battery was running out so I reconnected it to the power source and waited a few minutes somehow the display woke up again after pressing some random buttons. My battery was a 80% so that wasn't the issue.
I saw a few post after about a blackscreen when logging in but not on wake-up.
Should I contact apple for a replacement?
Cheers!
Note: Installed all available updates

Yes. Take it to the store and have it checked out.

Macbook Pro Retina screen black lines

Hi everyone.
I have had my macbook pro retina since june 2013. I have had two strange experiences with the screen, all of a suddent after the screen went to sleep (on battery) and i turn it on again I get the screen filled with black and gray lines like this
and I cannot restore it to normal without turning it off and on again. I could take a screenshot though.
So I was wondering if you knew what it is due to and what should I do? My laptop is fairly new and I still have warranty.
It was purchased in New York but now I am in Copenhagen, Denmark.
We do not have a proper apple store, but some "Apple stores" which are affiliated with them and they normally ship them to Netherlands for repairing. Should I bring it in and get it fixed? Also I can do that here in DK too even though it was bought in New York right?
Hope someone can help me.

How do i fix Macbook pro retina screen lines?

How do i fix Macbook pro retina screen lines? Little white lines appear everywhere, but i can still see the screen, but it is just uncomortable for the eyes to see them. They are like pixels...

I have the same problem, especially with Chrome gmail and evernote and it's driving me crazy. Anyone with a solution would be amazing!

Macbook Pro Retina - nVidia card does not work correctly

Hi,
having a MacBook Pro Retina. It ran fine till yeasterday when I fired up a game which was laggy and it was running fine before. It took me several hours to find where the problem is and it seems to me that the nVidia dicrete card is not working. But strangely not working. I installed gfxCardStatus to see whether the card is being switched to run the game and it actually is. But the performance is the same as running it on an internal Intel. I took another test and downloaded CINEBENCH to see the differences and sadly the results are the same if I switch to nVidia or to Intel and run the benchmark.
Obviously something is not right here. It happened over night. Before it worked corectly. I do not remember installing something that day/night that could have broken it (in case it is a SW problem). Only one thing comes to my mind - Apple Java update. But I tried to uninstall it and got the same result. I did try to restart several times. But otherwise there is no visible flaw, e.g. flickering or black screen when swithech do nVidia - nothing. gfxCardStatus shows that the system switches the card and I notice no change. Only in heavy load it is obvious that it is slow (slower than it was).
Is there a way to see if the nVidia card is working? I suspect that even if the system is trying to switch to a discreet card it still runs on the Intel in reality. Any way how to distinguish this rather than to rely on gfxCardStatus? Any log that would make this clear? Any test I can run (Apple HW test shows "no problem detected")?
Many thanks for hints.

To show what I am talkin about I did another test. I downloaded and ran LuxMark. There it is possible to test CPU and GPU separately on a same benchmark scene. FIrst I let the system switch to nvidia and did the test:
Then I manually switched to Intel/CPU in gfxCardStatus and also selected CPU in the LuxMark and did the same test. The result is:
You see? How it is possible that in OpenCL computation CPU with internal graphic card is even faster then the descreet one? This is what I am experiencing now and cannot figure out where the problem lies.
Would the Apple HW test discover a dead nvidia card? Because nothing shows that the card is dead but as you can see it is not performing as it should.

Green tint to Macbook Pro Retina screen.

Hello,
I have a Macbook Pro Retina less than 2 months old, earlier today the screen started to get a green tint on everything. I already attempted adjusting the color profile, which didn't affect the greenness of the screen.
Thoughts?
-Peter.

Ok, the EXACT same thing happened to me, although I sneezed all over the screen (gross) and then wiped it off with a windex covered paper towel. Then followed up with a damp microfiber towel to remove smudges. There was no way that water could have gotten in nor the windex.
So I raise you this question; did you use a microfiber cloth, and are you in a dry-cold or a dry-hot otherwise low humidity climate.
The reason I ask, theoretically if you did use a microfiber, had the computer on, and rubbed back and forth across the screen several times, you may have created static electricity, which may have interfered with the screen.
I found that after doing several power cycles (command+control+p+r+power) the green tint completely disappeared. I also noticed that the cat hair that flies around my house is not sticking to the screen anymore....
Food for thought
FYI purchased NOV/2014

Fall 2013 Macbook Pro Retina screen freezing and crashing

Hello,
lately, I have been experiencing some screen freezes on my Macbook Pro Retina 15''... The screen just freezes, including the mouse pointer and then it doesn't respond to anything. I just have to restart the machine again. This happens sometimes and not every day, but still a few times a week. I just do normal things on my mac while I get this problem.
Also, just recently almost an hour ago, my screen just turned all white and it said "Your computer restarted because of a problem. Press any key to continue or a wait a couple minutes for it to reboot." This time, I was watching a movie when it happened.
I have also verified the disk in disk utility, but no errors.
What may be causing this issue? Hardware? Software? I also have applecare, but I'm eager to find out what's the problem before I hand it to the apple store.
Thank you very much!

My 13'' macbook pro retina's display just stopped working for some reasons i don't know, what can be the cause?

Hello
i'm really worried about my macbook pro, it's a 13'' retina 2012 model. After watching a late night movie last night i just closed the lid and went straight to bed as usual. To my surprise when i flipped open the lid this morning it only made the apple sound when turned on but didn't display anything. I tried switching it on and off several times but nothing changed. So i connected it to an external display and it worked fine. The funny thing is i never dropped it or spilled any liquid on it. Now i'm wondering what could be the cause and i'm hopping someone might be abble to explain this....Could it be the lcd screen, the video card or graphic processor or could it be the logic board?? Help.

reseting the System Management Controller won't wipe my SSD drive will it?
No, but if you don't already have a backup, you must back up immediately, before you reset the SMC or do anything else.

Can't open Adobe cs5.5 .dmg on a 15inch MacBook Pro Retina screen

Hi there,
Hopefully someone can help.
I recently bought a 15inch retina screen new macbook pro after my old one started to die last week - I bought Adobe cs5.5 a few years ago and I'd really like to be able to install in on the new laptop so I can get on with my work. As there is no disc drive I downloaded the file from Adobe which took many hours and now as soon as I click on it it comes up with this.
I tried to use the disc utility to do something with it but wasn't really sure what I needed to do and buggered up the first download and had to try and get it again. I haven't had this problem with my old laptop - i'd even updated the os to be running the same so I don't know why it's having a problem with the .dmg and as I haven't had the problem before I don't really know what to do. If someone could help me out I'd be super grateful as I do have client work I need to get on with.
Thanks so much,
Emilia

Me thinks you have tried to connect to a shortcut folder and not a genuine folder.
Note Mac OS X in Mac OS X 10.4 has 3 popular folder shortcut locations:
The leftmost column of the Finder window.
The horizontal toolbar on the top of the Finder window
The translucent bar which can be anchored on the side or bottom of the screen known as the Dock. These are not true folder locations, but only locations for shortcuts. When you click on a folder for a volume that is not mounted, or is a folder which was deleted it will behave in this fashion. Often if you click on it the right fashion, it will change to a question mark.
In addition if it is an alias to an existing folder that has no contents, it will behave this way from the three shortcut locations.
If you right click instead of the left click a folder, it may think you want to do something to the folder which you can't do. Make sure your mouse button functions properly as a Primary button on Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse.
Also make sure Universal Access is not turned on as it too can cause funny behavior in the mouse click actions, in Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Universal Access.

Why does my MacBook Pro Retina screen display pixilated graphics when using the finder?

While this started just after the latest OS X update, each time I use the finder now to locate a graphic to upload, the graphic appears extremely pixelated. It does not matter which application I use to search and upload a graphic file, the graphic appears smaller and bleeds out. I just purchased the new Video Motion Pro video editing software, and every single graphic I upload to this application is pixelated. Has anyone else had any problems with their retina display after the last update?
Here are some examples of hi resolution graphics that now appear pixelated on my Retina screen:

If anyone is aware of an application or Apple software test that allows me to check my graphic card and retina display, please advise. I have performed multiple disk utility checks, restarts, etc., but nothing seems to help.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

MacBook Pro Retina screen cracked on it own while I was watching youtube.

I purchased it on April 2014 from Executive Machines Dhaka, Gulshan Branch. Everything was working fine until 23 feb 2015. While me and my family were watching a youtube video on it, the screen started to crack from upper left side of the side. we all watched how the screen cracked from left to middle to the right.
We all were in shock! In my entire life I have never seen such things. A screen cracked by it self!!! Anyway after that not the 24 feb, I went to dealer as I had free service of one year left. The guys at Executive Machines were shocked as well and said they never seen such things before and they will send the Mac to Singapore to get it checked. So did the paper work and left it with them. 3 weeks later, they notified me that Apple said NO!!
So the fact here is, I didn't drop it nor damaged it in other means. 5 people in the house watched the whole thing live!!! If it was done me then there must have been damage marks, when I mac is fully fresh!!!! the saddest thing when I collected the Mac from Executive machines the screen started having black marks on the upper and lower side of the screen.
This is the most shocking thing that ever happened in Tech using history and I keep wondering who's fault was it!!! Executive Machines received a mac with a mark on the screen and returned me with black marks and ''they said'' Apple said NO!!
I tried to upload photos from 23 feb but something was wrong!!
It would very nice If anybody from Apple contacts me and we can talk about the whole thing.

Macbook Pro Retina Screen Resolution Issues

I have just bought a retina display Macbook Pro (Early 2013) with OS X 10.8.3 Mountain Lion.
Before getting it, I did not realize what an effect it would have on the use of my existing programs, and had I known, I would have thought twice before switching from my non-Retina Macbook Pro. I have never had so many problems with a brand new computer. On my retina screen, programs such as Microsoft Office 2011, Adobe Creative Suite 5 and Acrobat Pro X run with an awful screen resolution and impossibile legibility. The pixelated graphics and image quality hurt my eyes, beyond the fact that I cannot see my lines, images and text properly in order to work with them.
In these programs, the "Open in Low Resolution" button is enabled permanatly and cannot be changed as it's option is ghosted out. I do not know how to make it look better or what to do. I cannot work using this low resolution and this issue has affected my productivity.

You have a new MBP you have 14 days to return/exchange, 90 days of free phone support, as well as 1 year at the store. Take advantage of this.

Macbook pro retina screen flicking problem

I bought this 15 inches Macbook pro back in Nov, 2012. And I have the screen flicking problem in Dec.
The problem is the same here listed on youtube. You can find hundres of them just by searching "retina flicker" on youtube.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ko6WCqw20ZE
And I did a lot of researches on this. I had also gone to the Apple Store 2 times, one Genius Bar Staff told me this has to be a hardware problem and offer to fix my laptop, others said it might be a software based problem and adviced me to wait for the new system update. I don't have time for a long fixing so I chose waiting. That particular one who told me to wait for the next software update also encourage me to dig deep and tried to find the root cause by myself...and I did. I found my screen flicking problem could caused by cellphone inteference. And It seems that the Wi-Fi antena is also a key component here. If I turn off Wi-Fi completely, the flickering went away.
Some solutions I found online
1. It can caused by Enable Safari webGL. So disable webGL and turn off develop mode
2. Disable displaycard auto switch in Power saving tab
3. Close the lid put the sytem into sleep and re-open the lid
4. stop using Wi-Fi. That's right people, try disable Wi-Fi!! It's the only working solution for me.
5. It could be caused by CDMA cellphones including US Verizon brand cellphones and many others. GSM cellphones are OK. Try to turn off your cellphone or drive to a empty plaza and try to see your laptop still flickering at your car. Turn off your cellphone when You do this.
What doesn't work
Reboot
reinstall OS
go to Apple Store and change Logic Board (Someone reported that after logic board change, the problem came back after a while)
Let me know if you guys have any findings, Thanks!!

I'm sure that you've seen the problem with 'burn-in' and 'ghosting' on some MBP-R machines in threads on this forum. It doesn't seem to be an overwhelming problem, but some have reported it.
Did you buy it from an Apple Store or online? Either way, you need to get tough with Apple. Tell them you need to keep your computer and, when they deliver a replacement to your local Apple Store, you'll bring it in for exchange. That's what they've been doing with most people that have had MBP-R problems - I've never heard of them requesting that you send your computer back before they will exchange. Did you contact your local Apple Store or was this response from an AppleCare phone conversation. If the latter, take it into the Apple Store, explain what you want to do, and I'm sure that they will work with you.
Good luck,

Macbook Pro Retina screen issues

I had the ghosting issue on my 15" retina, plus a weird trail issue when dragging items across the screen.
I had the entire screen and logic board replaced.
I picked it up today and the white is now extremely warm, it looks dirty, similar sort of white to my old 2007 Macbook. Compared to my iPhone 5 it looks almost yellow. I compared it against my brothers and partners Macbook Pro's (non-retina). The white on both their laptops are much cleaner and brighter.
I wanted a great screen and thus why I purchased the retina Mackbook Pro but this is has been a nightmare.
To add to it, during the repair they have inadvertantly broken the trackpad. The left click works OK sometimes and then suddenly, it feels like it's stuck in, there's no 'click' when I push it.
I want to take it back in but being a freelancer, it costs me everytime. I'm thinking of just asking them to replace the unit, but I'm not sure I fancy my luck.
What do you guys think? Stick with it or try my luck asking for a replacement?
Thanks

I think I will take it in tomorrow. I feel like a dick, but it was so expensive, anything less than perfect and I know it will continue to bug me.
The graphical glitches were in Chrome and Illustrator. For example if I dragged something across the screen, all the text and stuff repeats. Although that's still an issue now, so I'm wondering if it's an issue with Illustrator.
But this yellow tint is really horrible, I feel like I'm on an old Mac with washed out colours.
