Mavericks & MBP retina resolution change

Hello
I did a search before writing this, and since I found no posts, I am posting this.
I upgraded my 2012 retina MBP to Mavericks as soon as it came available.
No problems at all installing.
But I just noticed this:
on system information, I read under display:
Built-in Retina Display 3840 x 2400.
As long as I remember before the upgrade of OS X, I used to read 2880 x 1800...
(I set the display to "more space" under System preferences)
So, is it only me?
I went to check Apple's site of MBP retina (2013's) and it also reads : 2880 x 1800 native resolution...

Hello
I had a similar problem with Doom 3 and I've found a solution: it's due to the feature "Automatic graphics switching" being active. To prevent this from happening you need to disable it in System Preferences --> Energy Saver and uncheck this option. For further convenience you can install and use the application gfxCardStatus. Anyway, it's weird to have this happening in Doom 3 and have no issue for instance in Quake 4.
Hope I can helped.
Best regards,
Ruben P.

My MBP (retina) keeps changing the time!

I recently brought a new MBP with retina but the time keeps changing by its self! I have tried setting it to manual time but it still changes. I have also turnt off auto detect timezone to see if it was that but it still changes. I also use windows 7 on my mac if that helps.
Thanks Hayden

How are your Date & Time System Preferences set? Here's a snap of mine:
I'm not having any problems - I just allow the Apple Server to set the date and time with the correct Time Zone selected.

Mavericks: Screen Sharing Resolution changed to low-res

I just updated my two slave macs (Mac Pro, Mac Mini) to Mavericks (main mac still on 10.8.5), and when I do screen-sharing by connecting to each, suddenly I'm getting each slave mac in a square screen at low-res -- 1280x1024. THere are no other options to return these to full 1920x1080-sized windows.
Some other forums recommended a free app called Display Menu that puts a screen resolution in the upper menu bar, but when I select 1920x1080 as the resolution for the sharing window (which it has always been), I get a black screen in that window and the only fix is to turn off the slave mac manually, and when it comes back on and I reconnect to it, it reconnects with the square 1280x1024 monitor window.
It used to be that I got the 16:9 screen share window and I could scale/resize it by dragging corners but that option is gone.
Anyone know how to get that old 1920x1080 resolution back in my screen-shared windows?

Ok so the solution was to user a different VNC client in Ubuntu. "Vinagre" allows you to view your remote session scaled to any size you like. It will however retain the dimentions of your MacBook screen.
One thing to be aware of is that when authentication your VNC session (entering your username and password) Vinagre only allows you to enter a password of 8 characters max. So if your password is longer then 8 characters you will have to shorten it to user Vinagre... A bit annoying but at least it works.
Techy notes:
It is actially the VNC server Vino that Vinagre uses that is enforcing the password length limit. So if using an alternative client that uses Vino as it's VNC server this limit will apply for that client also.
Even though you are scaling the client session down VNC sends the host's full resolution so you will still transfer a lot of data over the network.

Preview app retina resolution problems after Mavericks upgrade

Hi everyone!
after upgrading from Mountain Lion to Mavericks, the Preview app (Version 7.0) stops working in Retina resolution.
For instance, a 2500pix graphics now does not fit in the monitor (2880x1800 pix native resolution) when displayed at actual size, i.e. 1 image pixel per 1 screen pixel. It is rendered at twice as low resolution.
As with the previous os x mountain lion, in Mavericks too I am using "Best (Retina)" screen resolution mode in the Display Preferences.
Any idea how to resolve this?
actually, I belive this is some sort of bug of the Preview app.
Is there anyone else having the same issue? If yes, please reply to this
i have a macbook pro retina 15"

Hi everyone,
i have a solution!
well at least that worked for me.
It is nothing like a bug or software problem. It is just that after mavericks install for some reason i found a change in my Preview app preferences. So i set it correctly and now everything is back and working correctly.
Go to the Preview Preferences, then choose the "Images" section/tab, then choose "Size on screen equals size on printout" option, and thats it!
Try this out and I hope this works for you too!

I have a MBP Retina LCD (resolution 2880x1800) and in the office I use it with a Monitor Sony LMD-2450W connected by VGA. After installing 10.9.2 the resolution in the monitor has been downsized to 4:3 (and 1280x960) instead of its 16:9 display. Anyone know how can I change the resolution manually?
Display shows only 3 different resolution if I choose "scaled" but none use the full area of the monitor.
Thank you

This has been an ongoing problem with external monitors that predates 10.9.2. I wrote various tips on different methods here, though the best is probably the hot corner one:

MBP Retina shows wrong resolution on external display since 10.8.4

I have a MBP retina and I'm using it with an external display, Dell U2711, connected via a Mini-DP to DP cable. It all worked amazingly well until 10.8.4 came out. Now, when I connect the display, it no longer shows the correct 2560 X 1440 resolution, but shows 1080p. The displays preferences pane does not allow going over 1080p. It does recognize the display model, though.
It started with one port. The machine has two TB ports, so one of them worked fine and the other didn't (the one closer to the user was acting up). Then it degraded further to the second port. Now, if I plug and unplug several times and fiddle with the displays control panels, I might just get it right eventually. It takes some time, but eventually the machine gets it right. At least that's what I've been experiencing in the last few days.
I don't think it's a hardware issue. It's possible that my cable is at fault, but I seriously doubt that. I'm wondering if anyone else got the same problem, just checking before I go and splurge on a new cable (these cables are not easy to find).
Thanks,

This worked for me:
Step 1: Delete system windowserver preferences
In the Finder, from the menu bar, select "Go -> Go to Folder..."
Enter: /Library/Preferences/
Delete the file called com.apple.windowserver.plist
Step 2: Delete user windowserver preferences
In the Finder, from the menu bar, select "Go -> Go to Folder..."
Enter: ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/
Delete all files that start with com.apple.windowserver (On my rMBP, there was one file called com.apple.windowserver.12AFB147-95D6-5C70-8F62-C1E4F2BE81BE)
Step 3: Reset the PRAM (These instructions are fromhttp://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379)
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

I just got a MBP Retina. At it's highest resolution, everything is tiny. The olny way to get things to a readable size is to lower the rez, but that defeats the purpose of having it. Am I missing something?

It doesn't defeat the purpose to lower the resolution. When you choose the size you can read, the extra pixels are used to make the text and graphics more detailed, closer to the high print resolution humans have been accustomed to reading on paper for hundreds of years. That is the difference compared to the coarse screen resolution of a conventional (non-Retina) screen.

When I command tab from diablo 3, my mac changes to a non-retina resolution. But when I quit diablo, it comes back. what's happening?

when I command +tab from diablo 3, my macbook pro changes to a non-retina resolution. But when I quit diablo, everything comes back to a full retina resolution. what's happening?
Is this some sort of defense mechanism to save energy or space? I noticed that this only happened after I installed mountain lion. I didn't have this problem before.

I don't think Diablo is the problem. It is retina compatible. Its what happens when I use diablo then go to desktop, or any other application - it (the other application) appears a bit blurred. as if its using the 2011 macbook pro resolution.
It can be fixed by going to system preferences and clicking "display" then use "best for retina", but it wasnt like this before OSX mountain lion...

MBP Retina Filevault login screen is low resolution all of sudden

Hey guys, so I did the few software updates today to get ready for Mountain Lion and I started to notice that all of a sudden now my filevault enabled login screen (the one that's all grey and you see before even booting up the operating system) is in low resolution! Since i've had my MBPr it's always been in glorious retina resolution, and now it's all low res.
Anybody else encountered this problem or know of any fix? I'd appreciate it!
Best,
Oliver

I've got the same problem on mine after changing the resolution several times. I've just applied 10.8.2 but still have the same issue.
Havent found anybody else seeing the same thing apart from here. I'm going to try de-crypting the Mac and encrypting again to see if that fixes it. There must be some way to change it though.

Brand new MBP Retina constant kernal panics

I have a new MBP Retina with Mavericks 10.9.4 installed. I have received constant kernal panics since a few days into it. It seemed as though they were being cause by the io/logic boards, but those have both been replaced now. OS has been reinstalled multiple times to no avail. BSD and kernals blamed are all over the place (Dock, WindowsServer, mds; filesystems, AppleSMBusController, IOAcceleratorFamily)
The latest kernal panic is as follows:

I've got many more where that came from. I just don't want to post a wall of text.

An update on my situation.
I had my macbook pro replaced with a brand new one by Apple, which was brilliant customer service.
Before giving back the old macbook, I decided to copy all my essential documents over to a usb stick. I also formatted my time machine external drive so it was blank.
Rather than restore this new macbook using my time machine backup, I set it up as a new machine and copied just my documents from my usb stick. I then proceeded to carry out fresh installs of software I regularly use but nothing non-essential (namely Spotify, Firefox, Chrome, xCode, Adobe CS5, Squidman, MAMP and Office 2011).
For three days everything worked beautifully - until last night when I had my first kernel panic on this machine. Nothing was running apart from firefox when this panic occured. The report is below and states the process which was running was 'plugin-container' which is part of firefox.
Below is the log output:

I'm running the latest OS X Mavericks - all updated to date.
I've tested the thunderbolt display with a friends MacBook Air and I see no problems there.
Any clues what is going on? Or it this latest Kernel Panic just a coincidence compared to my previous macbook?
Thanks in advance!

Display and render bug with FCPX 10.8 on a MBP retina 15"

Hi,
I have a brand new MBP Retina 15, 2.7 GHZ with SSD, OS X 10.8.3 and FCPX 10.8 and I have a problem with most of video fx that just doesn't preview and render.
When I try to preview it display black on the viewer (or white picture or no effect or something uncorrect).
When I apply the fX it render it as pur black or white. Same with Magic Bullet look, when I render it's just black picture.
No problem on geometrics fx
Same story with Motion
I throw the pref and all the basics rescue opération, even re-install FCPX and Motion following the apple process, no changes !
I've got same configuration on the MBP 17"(2009 model) and no problem.
Does it ring a bell to sbdyelse ?
Do you know a way to contact by email sbdy at FCPX apple ?
thanks
cheers
Seb

here is what I did :
Timemachine save of the mac
Restart > format the drive
Install Mac OSX
Timemachine BUT NOT APPLICATION
Re-install all app's
and it works
Important
I did a first try when I had everything from time machine except application, then FCPX was working. Then I re-installl everything from app store and webpages of the other soft (no so many) : FCPX was working. Finally to get the last few app (like office) I decided to use timemachine/application to install them... and the same problem came back. (...)
I start from start... format again... and install the app from app store and webpages, even MBL - Slice X and other different plugin and it work. I decided to not install some recent things before saving my system.
The main 2 things I didn't install are
from appstore : Resolution Tab
and from web
the SONY XDCAM driver I used this week to check some F55 files
http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/pdzk-lt2
So It could be one of those... maybe, but I don't want to loose anymore time to know it for sure.

Screen real-estate on the 15" MBP Retina display

The 15" MacBook Pro Retina Display has a remarkable 2880x1800 pixel resolution, compared to the 27" LED display's 2560x1440. Normally, screen real-estate is defined as how much stuff (windows, menu bar items, bookmark lists, etc) you can fit on the screen, with a larger (that is, more pixels) screen being able to show more stuff using its native resolution.
With the MBP's Retina display, the pixels are so small that using its native resolution in the same way as with the 27" monitor should result in, say, really small menu bar items, etc. As a result, the default monitor setting involves scaling, so that something which might normally take up one pixel might get four or eight devoted to it, making it larger and easier to see. Its monitor control panel allows changing that relationship so that everything could be made to appear even larger, resulting in less screen real-estate, or smaller, resulting in more screen real-estate; i.e., lots more stuff can fit on the screen.
My question is whether, at the smallest setting offered, the screen real-estate is the equivalent of, say, a 32" monitor which also has 2880x1800 pixel resolution but is spread over a much smaller physical area, or is the Retina's display still scaled to some smaller equivalent resolution because straight 1 to 1 would simply be too small to be practical? If that's the case, what does the effective resolution work out to be at the smallest setting?
I'm aware that's not a simple question because, for example, I understand that an HD Movie could be displayed pixel for pixel even if everything else outside that window is scaled. Moreover, the use of vector graphics complicates the matter further. But for things like menu lists and word processing documents, can the MBP's Retina display be set to what we understand to be 1 to 1?

actually.... it doesn't.
the 1920 is simulated, and apple doesn't recommend it.
Apple doesn't offer the option of full resolution (2880x1800) and says everything other than 1440 x 900 won't look as good as 1440x900.
so while you can set the monitor to 17" resolution (1920x1080) it has to simulate it on a 2880x900 screen and has to blur and reinterpolate elements to make it work
they've really messed it up for anyone wanting true HD resolution for professional reasons.
Indeed. Everything except 2880x1800, which is unavailable without SwitchResX, and 1440x900, which comfortably fits one pixel of the image into a four pixel square of the Retina Display, must be simulated or scaled. However, while the scaling is real, the 17" "simulation" looks as good, to my eye at least, as my wife's MBP 17". Going smaller will test one's eyes probably as much as Apple's scaling algorithms so the tradeoff for greater screen real-estate may turn out not to be as bad as we'd think. All I need is a MBP Retina Display and SwitchResX to find out...

Sad day today - New MBP retina 15" and no scanner and no CS6

Walking back from happiness!
The first two week I was very amused with my new MBP retina 15" - I'm changing from Windows XP professional.
But now it looks like that I have to install bootcamp on the mac to run Windows 7 with my CS5 for PC.
Has anyone experience with installing bootcamp on mavericks.
Is it complicated, I'm a little afraid to destroy something?
Greetings

Well, my English is not so good so that my writing was missunderstandable.
I know that software for windows don't run on a mac.
So yesterday i bought a CS6 for mac... Tragedy...
Anyway ...
But now: Bootcamp
I read the manual, but I'm not sure if I understood it right...
First I load the drivers for windows from apple and save them on a stick?
Then I make a partition in the Festplattendienstprogramm?
Then I set in the DVD from Windows in the DVD-Player and start the installation?
After restart of Windows i start the drivers from the USB?
Please be so kind and correct me if I'm wrong.
