Macbook Retina Display - Creaks when opening programs

My macbook retina display creaks randomly only when programs open.
For example, when diablo opens, it makes a creaking sound just underneath the keyboard.
When a youtube video starts playing, it creaks.
When i open chrome or safari, it creaks.
It only creaks at the beginning when programs starts running.
Wierd.
anyone having this problem too?
Please share.
cheers.

I imagine it is not an expected issue, as my 2010 MBP worked just fine.  Also, were the issue expected I would hope that it would be compensated for.  I am typing this response on the Retina MBP and there is definitely lag or letters disappearing all togther.  I am also typing this to get the screen shots of the activity monitor.
Here are the results:
Also, when posting the pictures here in this message, the images seemed askew until I scrolled the screen a little.  It would seem to me a video card issue but I am not a Mac genius so I am just guessing.  I am using the default "best for retina" resolution setting.
This is also what I am saw just now as I was scrolling:
Notice the lines of text don't align.

  • CS5 on MacBook Retina Display

    I recently installed CS5 on the new MacBook Retina Display and the program components show up very pixelated or at a low quality resolution. Is there an available update for CS5 customers or is it necessary to purchase the new CS6? Also, is there an update available to make the new CS6 compatible with this version of the MacBook and does it come at a cost?

    There is no Retina support in CS5, plain and simple. In CS6 only Photoshop and Illustrator got a Retina update. Only the latest CC has all programs with Retina support.

  • Slightly misled & eye strain - Macbook Retina Display

    Anyone else feel slightly misled over the new macbook "retina" display? Highest resolution ever in a laptop etc.
    Well it isn't it's still basically the same 1440x900 desktop as my old macbook even if it is underpinned by 4 x the pixels.
    If I deviate from the 1440 by upping the resolution to 1920 then the picture is not that sharp and I get eye strain.
    I also run a Sony Vaio Z11 with a 1080p display (1920x1080) and that is on a 13" display and use that all day every day without problems.
    Is it the off pitch resolution that is causing the problem, ie 1.5 pixels per desktop pixel thats causing the eye strain?

    Unfortunately, the problem wasn't due to the glossy quality of the screen as I had purchased a hi-res anti-glare.  I will probably put an anti-glare film on the retina display if I make the purchase, as I also find glossiness to be annoying.  I do find it very interesting that you can use your matte LED screen for so long without trouble.  I wish I could have said the same, but 15 minutes on my returned 2011 LED matte Pro left me with headaches and strained eyes.  From reading the other large thread, it seems that some people are just more sensitive to the LED. Thanks for the response though!

  • PDFs not displaying images when opened in Google Chrome.

    My PDFs are not displaying images when opened in Chrome. They do display in other browsers and when saved to the desktop. I have tested on multiple machines. Is there a problem with how they are saved? Here is a test: http://www.omnils.com/userfiles/files/Brochures/KL-003_REV_0914_APEX_CR_SPEC_SHEET_lo.pdf

    "... a known Chrome issue."  The resolution lies with Google for this - nothing you can do (other than disable the "in house" browser add-on and enable Adobe's (if you have Reader or Acrobat installed)).
    A similar issue exists with other, contemporary, browser releases.
    The "fix" is these software houses to deploy PDF viewer browser add-ons that actually comply with ISO 32000.
    Perhaps their lazy approach reflects the attitude of "Hey, Adobe will get the hit not us."
    Provide your users a feed-back mechanism; you'd be able to respond with the suggestion that they ping on the appropriate software houses to provide adequate software.
    Be well...

    You will have to live with it or sign up for CC if you want true Retina support.

  • 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.

  • I have a macbook with retina display and when i use it, it gets hot on the bottom is this normal?

    When i use my macbook it gets hot on the bottom is this normal?

    If you're talking about the "new" MacBook with retina display, it's normal (Especially when you're playing games or watching a movie) and like Stark_Hu said, it will start displaying the temperature warnings, slow the processor, and try to regain normal temperatures. I actually had that happen to me while I was playing the Sims 4 while having 3 Pages documents and 5 or so Safari pages open.
    Now if you're talking about the Retina MacBook Pro, I would clean out the fan ports and everything because that doesn't seem too normal!

  • When will the MacBook Retina Display shell case come?

    I am going on a trip and I need a protection case to keep my laptop safe. I recently bought a MacBook Pro with Retina Display and I have not heard anything from Apple about the cases. When will the cases be out in the U.S?

    I went to the Apple Store today and talked to the manager.  He said he does not know, because the only indication of when is WHEN it arrives.  Could be tomorrow (unlikely).  Could be ten days.  I tend to believe him because he has been right in the past.  Just ask the store roughly when deliveries are made each day. Then call around that time.

  • My 2014 MacBook Pro with retina displays crashes when I run Premiere Pro CS5

    Hi,
    I just purchased a 2014 MacBook Pro with Retina display with the following specs:
    2.8GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 4.0GHz 
    16 GB 1600MHz DDR3L SDRAM
    Intel Iris Pro Graphics and NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M with 2GB of GDDR5 memory
    I am running Premiere Pro CS5 with Mercury Playback GPU Acceleration enabled, but my computer keeps freezing and I have to restart it every time.   Any kind of help or feedback would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I had to call Apple and the tech made me enter a bunch of terminal commands to fix this. Unfortunately I can't tell you excactly what it was. I think the best way would be to call Apple.

  • Using Photoshop to create web graphics on a MacBook Retina Display

    I have the new 2014 MacBook Pro with Retina Display and just downloaded the latest version of Photoshop. I've found that when creating graphics for the web (buttons, banners, etc), I have to zoom to 200% in order for the size of the graphic to be what will appear on the web. For example, a 600px wide banner appears to be 300px wide in Photoshop (even though it is, indeed, 600px when viewed on the web). I've learned that I have three options:
    1) design while squinting to see the very small object on the screen (not really a good choice),
    2) check the "Open in Low Resolution" box for Photoshop if I want my graphics to appear to be the right size when designing them in Photoshop, or
    3) continue zooming to 200% when working in Photoshop.
    My question is: aside from the obvious annoyance factor, which of these options is the best choice for creating the highest quality graphics for the web? Are they both the same result... or am I hurting my graphics in some way by choosing one over the other?
    THANK YOU!

    That statement indicates you have a bit of a misunderstanding about how things work.  It's not true, because you seem to be confusing the term "px" with a physical measurement. What you need to understand is that a pixel on a Retina display is far smaller than one on a non-retina display.
    The key is this:  Images are upsampled by Safari when displayed.  Therefore, "viewed on the web", which you appear to think of as invariant,  is actually not the same from computer to computer.  Try this:  Put a 600 px image into a simple web page, then display it in Safari on your Retina system and screen-grab it.  Now measure the size of the image in pixels in the screen grab.  It will actually NOT be 600px as you have stated.
    Why would Safari upsize a web image on a Retina-equipped system?  Because Apple realizes that if it displayed an image that's been prepared for a typical non-retina 100 ppi display, as most are, it would look tiny on the 200+ ppi Retina display, so it's zooming everything for you as a convenience.
    I suggest taking some time to get your mind around how things actually work, and get to understand what a pixel really is, rather than making assumptions based on what you see.  Once you truly understand how images are actually being displayed, you'll be able to make the right decisions that work for you.
    Keep in mind that Photoshop is giving you the use of each and every pixel in that beautiful 200+ ppi Retina display.  Safari is not, unless you program your HTML to take advantage of it.
    The future of the web, in my opinion, is moving toward a model where images are actually provided at a higher-than-absolutely necessary resolution, and so high resolution displays will be able to make more of them, and people can easily use zooming to see even more detail as they want.
