Macbook Pro Retina - Thunderbolt  - Keyboard - Mouse

I'm using a thunderbolt display with my Macbook Pro Retina, using an external keyboard and mouse. Since uploading OS X Yosemite I am no longer able to log in from the blue tooth devices at start up, I have to open up my macbook to log on. This was not the case with the previous software, I could switch my mac on close the lid and log in from keyboard and mouse...
Can anyone provide me with a solution...?

Hey kps3591boss,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 
The following article provides some checks and setups to use Bluetooth devices to wake your computer.
OS X Yosemite: Wake your Mac with a wireless keyboard, mouse, or trackpad

  • Macbook pro retina external monitor mouse skipping, lag problem

    When I plug my macbook pro retina (Lion) into a 24" monitor through the DVI adaptor, the cursor jumps erratically every ~10 seconds when being moved. Feels like a lag and is worse with more programs running. Does not depend on mouse or mouse surface. Trackpad does it too. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    Hi AO1 James,
    If I understand correctly, the external monitor was blurry from the moment you plugged it into your MacBook Pro with Retina display. I would first check the resolution settings for the monitor with the "How do I select additional resolutions on my display?" section of the following article:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
    If it remains blurry after selecting your monitors optimal resolution, I would use the steps under the "Reset the system" section of the article to help troubleshoot the issue.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,

  • MacBook Pro Retina Thunderbolt Ethernet issues

    hi Folks
    I have a macbook Pro Retina 15" here, using the thunderbolt ethernet adaptor.
    if i boot the machine into windows 7 with the ethernet thunderbolt adaptor plugged in,  it works fine.
    however if i remove it while windows 7 is loaded , and then plug it back in, it wont work  until i reboot , back into windows 7.
    this is using the drivers as supplied in the boot camp installation package.
    I   have tried this with numerous mac machines  and the thunderbolt adaptor, and they all perform the same.
    ie if you remove the thunderbolt adaptor  , and then plug it back in, you will have to reboot the mac back into windows 7, before it works properly again.
    does anyone know why this is? and is there any way around having to reboot?
    thanks

    So I've noticed similar behaviour on my Macbook Air. It's a slightly different set of kit, since it's connected to a Belkin Thunderbolt Express Dock (http://www.belkin.com/uk/p/P-F4U055/). I'm on my second one of these because first one went back because it kept on dropping the internet connection (sounds familiar?) - and it *might* have been occurring when waking the system from sleep (I didn't make a mental note).
    Anyway the replacement was working perfectly, until today - when it's started to drop it's internet connection again, and this time I'm pretty certain that it's related to waking from sleep. The main difference now is that I *just* upgraded to Mavericks, and I wonder if the sleep problem has reared its ugly head again in the latest version of MacOS?
    All in all I have to say I'm pretty disappointed with the reliability of thunderbolt & the Belkin Dock thingie. Although it should be said that a single lead from my Macbook Air to the Express Dock is simultaneously carrying: video (1920x1200), Firewire800, 3xUSB3, gigabit ethernet and sound, so I'm not that surprised this technology is prone to the odd glitch, and the cables get really warm too!
    It would be great to have some solid information from Apple/Belkin about this.
    Cheers, Jon

  • Macbook Pro Retina 15 Keyboard caps feel loose, normal?

    Hi,
    I have just had my top case replaced ohm y macbook pro retina 15 (late 2013) due to a trackpad problem and now it feels as if all of the keys on the replacementt keyboard are slightly loose and rattley and make quite a lot of noise when i type is this normal as i have got a 2010 macbook pro 13 which the keyboard feels sturdy on, not sure if this is just because it is thinner or if it is faulty is this normal?

    yeh I would do but it is over a hour away and iti s costing me a lot to keep going out, it has been in repair 4 times and i have only had it for 2 months and hardly used it.. was just wandering what everyone else's keyboards were like?
    Thanks

  • Macbook Pro Retina/Thunderbolt Display, Mid-2014 speakers buzzing.

    I've had my MBPR since September, and had no issues until this year really.  If I attempt to watch a video or listen to audio, whilst on FaceTime - the audio seems to buzz.  I've never had the issue whilst on the macbook alone - only when connected through my thunderbolt display.
    Any similar issues/fixes?

    Hi nicicloud,
    It's been a while and I hope you would still notice my reply.
    I am having the same issue where Thunderbolt Display does not have HiDPI options in System Preferences.
    I am using a 15" MacBook Pro with Retina display.
    I tried a few apps, including SwitchResX.
    SwitchResX do provide a few HiDPI options, but the one I wanted, 1280x720 HiDPI happen to be not working.
    Can you try setting your TBD resolution to 1280x720 with HiDPI?
    Thank you!
    Btw, with the 11" MacBook Air, I didn't even need to download any app to enable 1280x720 HiDPI on TBD. A simply terminal command worked

  • MacBook Pro Retina Display - Keyboard Marking Screen

    Hello,
    The keyboard on my new MacBook Pro with Retina Display is leaving marks on the screen.  They wash off with a damp soft cloth.  Any suggestions to stop the problem.
    Thanks
    Joe

    In my opinion this is a defect in your MacBook Pro.  The tolerances are extremely tight.  The keys should not come into contact with your screen whatsoever.   I would call Apple tech support to see if it warrants a replacement if you want.  I even had a retina MacBook Pro for a couple weeks (before I returned it because of image retention issue in LG display) and there was never any key marks on the screen.  If you have a Samsung display though I would be hesitant asking for a replacement.

  • [REQUEST] Macbook Pro Retina Keyboard Driver

    Greetings everyone,
    I was browsing MSDN for tutorials onto how to make a keyboard filter driver in order to swap Fn-Ctrl and remap PowerKey to Delete on a Macbook pro retina internal keyboard. I managed to get a project up and running but I didn't get too far after that. My
    knowledge regarding driver development is limited, so I am asking can this really be done?
    If yes, can someone write a keyboard filter driver in order to achieve this functionality? After many attempts I just gave up.
    Thank you for your time.

    Thanks for posting here Doron Holan, I did use that example and it is quite useful. However I couldn't install the compiled driver onto the HID Keyboard. How do I install it correctly?
    When I used update driver and pointed to the .INF file it gave me an error that no suitable driver was found. The project by itself is designed for a PS2 keyboard. So how do I adapt the project to work with a HID Keyboard?

  • Macbook Pro Retina (15") can't connect to wireless mouse and external USB keyboard

    Hi All,
    I got my new MacBook Pro Retina (15 inch) about 3 weeks ago. It works fine. I got a 30" Dell screen that I am using via thunderbolt/usb adapter. Also, I am using a thunderbolt ethernet adapter. Both adapters work fine without any problems.
    I have an apple usb keyboard connected to the USB hub of the screen, as well as my iphone cable. It is a regular, full size apple keyboard. In addition to this, I have a logitech nano connected directly to the right usb port of the macbook pro.
    This setup was working well until a few days ago. I lost connectivity with my mouse. Initially, I thought the batteries are empty. After replacing them, I still had no connection (again, the usb receiver is *directly* connected to the macbook).
    I changed a few cables here and there and noticed that I can get either the keyboard to work or the mouse but not both at the same time. A reboot did not help.
    Did anybody encounter such a strange problem already? If so, what could I possibly do?
    Thank You,
    --Martin

    Hello nikkig00,
    It is certainly difficult to use the computer if your wireless keyboard and mouse do not connect.  I found a few resources I recommend for this issue.
    I recommend reviewing this article first:
    Troubleshooting wireless mouse and keyboard issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3048
    If the issue persists, I recommend reviewing the section titled "Top troubleshooting tips" in the article below.  Step 9 specifically stands out to me for the issue you described:
    9. Restart your computer
    Sometimes a simple restart of your Mac is all it takes to get things running smoothly again. You may also want to try resetting your computer's PRAM and NVRAM.

  • Brand new 15" MacBook Pro Retina - unplugged from Thunderbolt Display and Keyboards today find keyboard alpha-numerics not working; except the function keys, delete key, tab key, command/ctrl/shift/alt/fn and arrow keys; and 7/8/9/u/o/j/l nudge cursor

    Brand new 15" MacBook Pro Retina - unplugged from Thunderbolt Display and Keyboards today find keyboard alpha-numerics not working; except the function keys, delete key, tab key, command/ctrl/shift/alt/fn and arrow keys; and 7/8/9/u/o/j/l produce cursor nudges.

    It's a new machine - and the Thunderbolt Display is meant to work with it. You need to just make an appointment at your local Apple Store and have them fix whatever is wrong.
    If you like, you could always try a SMC reset and a PRAM/NVRAM reset to see if either of those will get your keyboard back in working order...

  • Macbook Pro Retina Mouse/Keyboard freeze

    Hi there,
    I have a 2013 macbook pro retina that's less than a month old. I have experienced a number of trackpad/mousepad freeze issues while using the computer. They occurred in close succession while using 10.93. I update to 10.94 and had not experienced the problem again since then(a week or more) but today it crashed. this is a big problem as i am a dj and use this laptop to play live gigs. I was hoping that you could help me isolate the problem. What happens is I will be working away and suddenly the mouse will freeze and the computer will become unresponsive, the keyboard doesn't work except for the power button.... also, the desktop background disappears upon forced restart.... any ideas? what may be causing this? Thanks in advance, Richard

    If your machine is less than a month old, you should use your warranty and call AppleCare (you have 90 days of phone support) or take your machine back to the Apple Store (make an appointment with the Genius Bar first) and let them deal with the issue.
    If yours is the 13" model, there is a thread on here (somewhere) about trackpad and keyboard failures when also using Bluetooth, I think (don't quote me on that - I don't have the affected machines so I don't follow the thread too closely).
    But I do believe that Apple is aware of the issue and had 'fixed' it in either a patch preceding 10.9.4 or in 10.9.4 itself.
    Give them a call...

  • Portuguese Keyboard on Macbook pro retina display.

    Dear All.
    Is there a possibility to buy a macbook pro retina display with portuguese keyboard in Apple Store in the U.S.A.?
    Regards.
    Emilio Silva

    Hey, I have the same problem too. It is making me angry. Both my thunderbolt outputs work, but the hdmi freezes both screens. I then have to shut the computer off by holding the power button and re-boot. Have you found a solution? I NEED my hdmi port. Please get back to me. Thanks!

  • Macbook Pro Retina trouble with projector after using Thunderbolt display

    I used my macbook Pro Retina with my Thunderbolt to VGA adapter all through the fall, and never had any trouble with it. Just before Christmas I got a Thunderbolt display.
    Since that time, whenever I connect the projector, I get a black screen. I can see and move the mouse, but nothing else. Other computers still work with the projector.
    I'm not certain if the Thunderbolt Display has anything to do with this or not, but it's just the timing that it happened.
    Grateful for anyone that can offer help!

    It might be that the Thunderbolt output is set to the resolution of the Thunderbolt display, which the VGA adapter probably cannot display correctly.  You can toggle between the video display modes using Command-F1... This will toggle the output between Mirroring and Extended Desktop.  Using Command-F2 will allow you to attempt to detect displays.  It might auto reset to the correct resolution using Command-F2.  If you can get the VGA out to display using extending desktop then you can change the resolution to work properly with the VGA projector.

  • Macbook Pro Retina - Use a wireless keyboard

    Silly question, but I need the answer.  Can the Macbook Pro Retina use the Apple Wireless Keyboard and then doc to a monitor via Thunderbolt?  My idea is just like you would dock a pc, so to speak.  I assume the answer to be yes, but need confirmation.
    Thanks!

    Yes.  You can use an external keyboard and monitor and even close the MBpro lid to operate in clamshell mode.
    Here are the rules for clamshell mode:
