Macbook Pro with Retina Display 128 GB Flash Storage. Will it hold 28 days of music?

I just got the lowest level of Macbook Pro with Retina Display. I have a lot of music, that I would ideally like to transfer to my new laptop, but I have had trouble understanding whether or not it would fit. I don't know if it will. I have about 28 days worth of music. Can I transfer my library without messing my new computer up?

Open iTunes and display your music library. In the iTunes status bar at the bottom of the window you should see what you wish to know. Or you can simply select your /Home/Music/ folder then Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window where the size of the folder willl be displayed in the upper panel.

Every time I use safari on my macbook pro with retina display, only half the page will load then it freezes up? It's brand new, so I don't understand why it would be doing this?

Flash SDK and MacBook Pro with Retina display major issues

Hello,
Apple has recently released Macbook Pro's with Retina displays.
I have tested my Flash application on the new laptop, and this is what I observe:
My Flex SDK Flash application looks blurry and strange when I try to check it out from any Macbook Pro with Retina display, while looking sharp and OK from all other machines.
On this screenshot you can sort of see the issue:

(Expand the image to the actual size, and compare the Flex SDK components with browser labels. Browser labels look crisp, Flex SDK components look a little bit blurry.)
Please fix this issue.

Sure. LR 4.3 even specifically adds Retina support...

I was having the same issue - couldn't believe my eyes on how horrible and fuzzy Flash Builder looked on my new Macbook Pro w Retina. Was suffering through it for the past week and just found this work around that someone figured out for Eclipse that also works on Flash Builder (guess b/c it's built on Eclipse). Here's the link to the bug report that shows the work around (Thanks to Brad Hudgeons):
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=382972
here's a cut and paste from the bug report in case the above url gets removed:
Here's the workaround: Do "Show package contents" on the Eclipse.app. Edit Contents/Info.plist. Just above </dict> </plist> Place this: <key>NSHighResolutionCapable</key> <true/>
Instead of Eclipse, show package contents on Adobe Flash Builder 4.6.app. After you edit the Info.plist file, go back up to the Adobe Flash Builder 4.6.app and duplicate it. It will create a Adobe Flash Builder 4.6 copy.app. Delete your original Adobe Flash Builder 4.6 and rename the Adobe Flash Builder 4.6 copy.app to Adobe Flash Builder 4.6.app. Then launch Flash Builder - you should see text that is much clearer. The graphics on the ui are still blurry but at least the text should be crisp.

Installing Windows 7 Ultimate Edition on a Late 2013 15" MacBook Pro with Retina Display. (Top Spec)

All,
I am trying to install Windows 7 Ultimate Edition on my Late 2013 MacBook Pro with Retina Display. I am using the .iso file/USB stick method of installation because I don't have access to my original Windows 7 DVD. I have the top specification model with all of the max upgrades. The problem I am having is when I get to actual installation of the Windows 7 software, it can't find the drivers I need to complete the installation. Any tips or suggestions?

I thought about doing what you said above, but unfortunately, I didn't have any spare blank DVD's. However, I was able to sucessfully install Windows & on my Mac. What I did was when I got to the error message, I would cancel the installation and that would return me back to the install now window. At that point, I would take out the flash drive and put it into another USB port. It took a few times, but eventually it recognized the drivers and allowed me to install the software. Remember, once you get past that point, the installation will ask you to choose a drive to install Windows on. Highlight the Boot Camp drive and chose "advanced", and then chose "format" after that. After all of this, it should be smooth sailing.

Installing windows 7 on a macbook pro with retina display

Hi All -
I just purchased a new macbook pro with retina display and I want to install a copy of windows 7 on this machine. I've gone through numersous postings online about the proper way to do this - and I had a few questions as it is a little confusing.
What I have:
15" macbookpro with retina display
External superdrive
Physical copy of windows 7 64 bit
a burned image of the windows 7 disk (as a .CDR file)
Several postings have indicated that I need a flash drive; is this the case if I have the actual disk and the superdrive I can use for reading it?
If not and I do in fact need a flash drive - I have an 8gb with encryption software on it - if I need to make an autoboot for the windows .cdr is there a special way to do this or will the .cdr image work as it is?
I appreciate any help provided.
Thank you
Lenny

Hi - I connected my superdrive but it does not seem to be working - now all I get is a black screen with the prompt - no bootable device; insert boot disk and press any key.
Any thoughts on this? I put an ISO image on my desktop and also created an image on a USB drive - however it has encryption software on it which did not get overwritten so Im not sure if this is why that won't boot.
Does anyone know if the Superdrive can't be used?
My macbook is 3 weeks old - it is all the latest and greatest stuff...

What MacBook Pro with Retina Display is recommended for college students?

I'm trying to decide which MacBook Pro with Retina Display to buy before I go off to college. I want to get the 2.6 GHz, 16 GB of RAM, and just the 512 GB of Flash. But I don't know which one is better for a business major. The 2.6 GHz Pro with Retina, or the 2.3 GHz Retina. My concers are the space, and this computer is suppossed to last me 4 years.

I'm a college student as well and I'm going to be a sophomore engineering major. I'm currently sitting on a 2007 white MacBook. Yes, it is from the stone age. However, over 5 years, I have only used 280 GB of space. I'm going to order a 2.7GHz, 16GB, 512 SSD R-MBP this weekend, in the hopes that this, too will last me about 5 years. Honestly, if you have the money to drop, I would buy the fastest possible configuration, 16GB ram, and a 512 SSD so that you can comfortably use your computer for another 4-5 years. My white MacBook served quite well for 5 years. The thing about newer technology is that it may last longer. A Core2Duo processor from 07 is nothing compared to Ivy Bridge now. So I would max out the configuration if I were you. By 2017, Intel is going to be making processors that will make this R-MBP look like crap, so consider "future-proofing" your computer for the long run.

MacBook Pro with Retina Display Upgradable?

Hello,
I plan on purchasing a MacBook Pro with Retina Display, but was wondering if I could be able to upgrade it's memory or flash memory in the Apple Store in the future?
Thank you!

I bought after-market ssd's for Macbook Air's from OWC. Those ssd's do not fit into the Retina MBP. I'm guessing OWC will come up with some after-market options but they will be expensive and given that you can already order a 768 directly from Apple, they would have to generate very sizable ssd's to sell them - likely way to expensive. The built-in ssd's in the Retina are supposed to have excellent performance. I ordered one with a 768 myself but these units have not shipped for the most part. I'm guessing supplies of the 768 are limited right now, or at least backlogged. All that is not terribly helpful but may add to the question asked.

Which MacBook Pro with retina display ( 13 inch or 15 inch ? )

I can't decide which MacBook with retina display to buy. I'm switching to a Mac from a PC, but I am used to the Mac platform. So far I'm am thinking that, I will choose the 15 inch model, if apple would lower the price a lot at the upcoming event WWDC 2013. But I would consider buy the 13 inch if apple rises the processor speed, offer more ram, and ssd, while keeping the same price.
The 15 inch MacBook offers:
An extra 2 inches of screen space
Much faster ( quad core vs dual core )
The 13 inch MacBook provides
A compact design
Dual core
13 inches
$1000 less
For full comparison visit: http://www.apple.com/macbook-pro/specs-retina/
I will be useing this Mac for
Ios application developing ( Xcode, ios simulator ),
Home use
Web searching
Sometimes at school
Utilities
And other usual stuff.
So overall,
I won't be carrying this around much,
I will do lots of web searching and app developing,
And utilities and other usual stuff
And a need for extra screen space for more room when I'm web searching and app developing.
What do think? Also, would you reccomended any extra features ( extra ram, ssd, or a higher processor) for my needs. This will be a great help, thank you. Ps. I have my fingers crossed for a new MacBook Pro lineup and WWDC 2013. I hope to see upgrades for the MacBook Pro with retina display, apple.

Hi,
I am a researcher so I store a lot of papers, data, and use numerical software. I have had a 17inch high spec macbook pro for over a year now. I find that apart from the large screen, it was unnecessary to get the high specs. This is why. Firstly, the hard drive is easy to replace and upgrade, apple charge a lot for their own ones. Secondly, the ram in my one was upgradable (which i didnt know when i bought it) and i since upgraded to 16gigs from 8 and its amazing. Thirdly, the newer macbook pros run hotter than the previous ones.
The retina is overrated and the programs for retina need more memory and processing power, so what you find is that your hard drive will get taken over sooner, your mac will run hotter, and battery life lower.
I would say to you, dont worry about the processor speed, the normal speed offered is perfect, more than that is not necessary unless you are running highly demanding apps, the mac will run hotter too. Dont bother getting a large hard drive in the macbook. Get a flash SSD drive, and buy a good portable 2tb HD, like a WD one, and use that to store as much of your work as possible. I believe apple started soldering their ram cards to the motherboard or something so that people cant upgrade. Check in advance and see if the macbook you want can be ram upgradable, then get a lower ram model and buy good 8gb ram cards to make 16gig. Very very easy to install them, took me about two minutes to do mine, it will be much cheaper.
If I think of anything else i will post back. Dont forget to install GFX card status too and use integrated only when on battery, i get up to ten hours of battery life without wifi, around 8 with wifi.
edit. I forgot to mention that if you buy your mac and try to open it you will void the warranty.

Installing CS4 to Macbook Pro with Retina Display

Hi, I just got a Macbook Pro with the Retina Display and I have tried installing CS4 to it, but apparently the version of adobe air does not exist. I do not know if this has anything to do with the flash storage since adobe products do not work with it. I installed CS4 to my iMac just fine. I read on another forum that CS4 is not compatible with the Macbook Pro with Retina Display and there were people who suggested installing CS6.
However, I also read that adobe is just installing retina display support to the products in the upcoming Fall to some of the CS6 applications (not including InDesign, which I need). Should I switch to the Macbook Pro w/o Retina display?

Adobe CS4 applications do not work properly with Mountain Lion 10.8. See table:
http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
CS6 works fine. I believe Adobe updated CS6 to work better with retina display. Check at the Adobe web site:

Should you switch or not is your decision.

Macbook pro with retina display , noisy when streaming

Yesterday I bought macbook pro with retina display 2.4GHz, 8Gb RAM, 256Gb flash storage ( 2088 SG$ ) from Challenger , Singapore.
If I watch online steaming ( e.g youtube.,etc ) , my macbook pro's fan start noisy and increase body temperature because of load .
I checked in activity monitor, CPU usage increased. So How should I do now ?

I had this exact problem when watching streams on my Macbook pro retina 15". For the sake of testing, I tried opening the same stream i was testing in chrome, using 120 % of cpu, in safari, where it uses roughly 3-10 %. dont't know if this will solve your problem, but I advice trying it.

Does the macbook pro with retina display get heated?

Hi I want to buy a macbook pro with retina display and i want to know more informations about it...like:-
1-does it get heated.
2-can I play any game without buying graphics chip.
3-does it run 64-bit download.
4-can order it with a CD slot.
5-can i upgrade to a new graphics chip.
6-if i will need a graphics chip what will i need it for.

1. It will if you run heavy-graphics processing such as HD-movie streaming or gaming. But the system should shut itself down instead of overheating. And if you keep the system on a flat hard surface (rather than on bedsheets), it should be able to keep itself cool enough to not overheat.
2. Any, no. Many more than a 13 in that only has integrated gragpics chip in CPU, yes.
3. Not sure what you mean.
4. No. You need an external optical drive.
5. No upgrades, not even RAM or flash storage.
6. Simple internet only requires basic graphics processing. Streaming HD movies from NetFlix requires faster graphics response. Gaming requires faster graphics response. Faster graphics response requires a better graphics chip than the one integrated into the CPU, one with its own RAM.
