MB PRo 15" mid 2012 flickering

Hi , guys
I have a problem with the screen of my MB Pro 15" mid 2012, with some grey gradient , the display is flickering or cut some color and add some purple and green color. At the Apple store they has changed three time the logicboard but the problem is still there and they don't know how to fix it and they give me back my computer !!

they said that they tried with another lcd display but the problem its still there ...  it's a machine limitation or maybe website problem ( no sense ) ! and can't do anything. its flickering also when i open an image in the desktop whit so grey gradient .

You can either CALL Apple tech support & tell them what you stated in your post or you can CALL Apple Customer Relations - 1-800-275-2273. Ask politely & firmly that you want to be transferred to Customer Relations.  Tell them exactly what you stated in your post.       
GOOD LUCK!

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return  three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
    12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

  • Macbook Pro Retina mid 2012 low fps in bootcamp

    Hello,
    My English is not so good, so sorry if it's not correct, but I hope anyone could help me.
    I have a Macbook Pro Retina mid 2012, 2,3 GHz Intel Core i7, 8 GB ram, 250 GB SSD.
    My problem is when I go to bootcamp for gaming I get realy low fps. The most games start at 30 fps, but then they drop immediately to 8/9 fps and a second later back to 30 fps.
    It's like a car, when you drive to hard you have to slow down, but then you drive to slow so you need to go faster. He speed up and a second or 2 later he kicks on the brakes and a moment later he speed up again and kicks again on the brakes.
    Even with al the game setting on realy low and the lowest resolution. And that al the time in every game. My bootcamp is Windows 8 but in Windows 7 did I have the same problem. I did already a SMC reset and Pram reset and 5 clean installs. But nothing works. I installed al the updates in OS X en in Windows. There al alrealy some forums about this problem, but by them was a SMC reset enough. Maybe something is wrong with my Nvidia grapihc card. The problems starts everytime when the Nvidia card need to do this work.
    it's quite an annoying problem, it's not a cheap laptop, but my old laptop ( 2 years old ) are the gaming performs better compared to this one. I think the problems start after this SMC update http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1559?viewlocale=en_US but I'm not quite sure.
    Are there more people with this problem, please let me know. And maybe how you solve it.
    I hope realy if any one could help me.
    If you know a anser, please give it in a comment
    Thanks,

    Hello gerwintiemens,
    I recommend resetting your SMC and your PRAM. Perhaps even a safeboot as well.

  • MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) - Boot Camp/Win 7 - Num Lock Problem

    Hey,
    I have a client who has a MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) who is experiencing a problem when booted into Windows 7 via Boot Camp in that he cannot type certain character like # (hash character by keystroke alt + 3) without Windows 7 error bleeping at him. He needs the # character as part of his password for logging into webmail.
    The Boot Camp setup has the latest Boot Camp drivers installed (this was a fresh Boot Camp setup/install today) and every other part of the hardware works I suspect that this problem is not a key mapping problem but more something to do with Windows registering Num Lock as being active.
    If the problem is that Num Lock is enabled then what is the keystroke to disable Num Lock? I thought it was fn + 6 but did this change since the Unibody MacBooks?
    I understand that there are ways of resurrecting number pad fuctionality as decribed in the MacWorld article (see link below) but this is a Mac OS X System Preference and as such would not operate when booted into Windows via Boot Camp.
    http://www.macworld.com/article/1142609/ressurect_numberpad.html
    Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

  • MB Pro Retina mid-2012 with OSX 10.9.5 no longer recognizes 2nd monitor

    After the OSX 10.9.5 update, my MB Pro Retina mid-2012 started to crash whenever I had it connected to an external monitor via a VGA to Thunderbolt adapter. The crash Kernel report follows below.
    After a couple of days my laptop stopped crashing, but now it won't detect any external monitor - none show up in the System Preferences/Displays. Tried a couple of different monitors ((VGA is the only available input for those). Running Diagnostics does not show any problem.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    iDVD 7 should work fine with 10.7.5.  Try this basic troubleshooting fix:
    1 - delete the IDVD preference file, com.apple.iDVD.plist, that resides in your
    User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete IDVD'S cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iDVD folder. 
    3 - launch IDVD and try again.
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • MacBook Pro 15" Mid 2012 says only supports Windows 7

    Hi there,
    I have Windows 8 already running on my MacBook Pro 15" Mid 2012 and now I am trying to install the latest drivers. But when I download the drivers via the Boot Camp Assistant it claims my MacBook only supports Windows 7.
    I did the manual download on the Windows side of life, but it fails to install, shortly after hitting setup. I guess, it checks the modell and fails.
    Also, maybe or maybe not, unrelated in the MacBook's about me it claims to be a 13", where as in the system report it shows the correct information.
    Any idea would be appreciated...
    Thanks,
    Thomas

    https://discussions.apple.com/message/21540547#21540547
    projectRelentless has some work arounds that may help here specifically:
    If you want, try and click setup in this latest BootCamp support set, and you will get another sad error claiming x64 is not supported, something awful to that nature.  Awww man, this far, only to get let down.  Nope.  We are going to fix that.  And this is where ErikVanD's post pointed me to what we do next.
    It was said to navigate in the BootCamp 5.0.5033 folder to something of the effect of BootCamp/Drivers/Apple and run the MSI file "BootCamp"  (MSI file will say Windows Installer in its description, and not necessarily MSI for anyone not too savy with Windows) **note - NOT .bootcamp (notice the period in the front) and it should work and install the new Windows 8 support for your MBP...but in my case it didn't, which is why im posting how i fixed this.  Your setup may somehow be different, but mine gave me an error say it "needs elevated permissions to run, use setup.exe instead.  We tried that remember!  And it gave us the x64 not supported error.  Oh man!  Blabbing aside, this file needs to be ran as an administrator, which yeah your the only user, but Windows is funny like that.  Normally youd just right click, and select run as administrator, but out the box, that option isnt there when you right click, only install, repair, open with etc.  Here's the next trick, you need to add a registry file to enable running as an administrator, dont be afraid, this is an old trick, and really easy. 
    Open notepad in Windows, and create a new doc, call it Add_MSI_run_as_administrator.reg
    Paste this following code into the new doc
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Msi.Package\Shell\runas] "HasLUAShield"=""  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Msi.Package\shell\runas\Command] @=hex(2):22,00,25,00,53,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,52,00,6f,00,6f,00,74,\     00,25,00,5c,00,53,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,33,00,32,00,5c,00,6d,00,\    73,00,69,00,65,00,78,00,65,00,63,00,2e,00,65,00,78,00,65,00,22,00,20,00,2f,\   00,69,00,20,00,22,00,25,00,31,00,22,00,20,00,25,00,2a,00,00,00
    Or download the file already made from my company server at http://www.theprojectdev.com/public/pub.html  **i put this there as a courtesy to help others like me, its just a complete reg file, so either create your own through copy and pasting above or download it.  Either way, put it on your desktop.
    Now double click the new registry file, and allow/ok it to do its thing. 
    Once done, you can discard the file from your desktop, or keep, your choice.
    Guess What!?  Now we can do the impossible!  Lets revisit that solution from before by going to the newest BootCamp 5.0.5033, and navigate to BootCamp/drivers/Apple and select that tricky BootCamp MSI file that wouldnt allow us to run, this time RIGHT CLICK it.  Because of our new registry entry we placed, we now have an option to "Run as Administrator"  Click that option.
    WooHoo!  We have done what coudnt be done, BootCamp will now walk you through the installer, and add all the great support for Windows 8
    Boot Camp Support Software 5.0.5033

  • Why does my MacBook Pro 13" mid 2012 version run quite slowly?

    I used to have a Windows PC, which ran VERY VERY VERY slowly. I heard that Macs did not get viruses and ran very quickly, so I bought a brand new MacBook Pro 13" mid 2012 version (entry level). At first it was running quite smoothly, but after some time it became slower, with boot ups taking about 2-3 minutes, instead of the 30 seconds boot up time I kept on hearing on Internet reviews. Is the RAM (4GB) insufficient? Or is 30 seconds just exaggerated? Launching apps can take quite a while, especially graphics intensive apps such as iMovie. Opening folders in my thumb drive can be quite a pain too, seeing as there is a lot of visible lag in the opening of files and folders.

    Boot times of 2-3 minutes are a little slow, my 15" doesn't do 30 seconds but faster than 2-3 minutes.  From your comments about how you are using the MBP, the entry level model may not have been the best choice...the 13" models have only one graphic processor, the 15" models have two.  The normal-usage Intell 4000 and a discrete AMD that kicks in with graphic intensive software.  If you are going to do a lot of video and games, the discrete processor will be a big help.  Also, 4 GB ram is often more than adequate, but some software really benefits from more ram.
    You can check the ram usage, and cpu usage, by going to Launchpad, Utilities, Activity Monitor.  See what the memory usage is with your software open and active...is the ram being used fully, are there a lot of page ins and page outs?  That means it is using the mass storage as it runs out of memory space.  If that is the case, increasing the ram to 8 GB will help.
    The Activity Monitor can also show you the load on the cpu so that gives an idea of how much you are pushing the system.

  • Macbook pro 15 mid 2012 with os x 10.8.4 taking long time to boot up

    i am using macbook pro 15 mid 2012
    2.6GHz intel core i7
    8GB RAM
    700GB hard disk
    my macbook is taking much more time to start and get it ready its taking more than 1min 30sec
    after system starded its hard to open any application(safari) for starting time some times while using safari the cursor is in not responding i mean doing some process its showing colour wheel rotating
    please tell me how to speed up my macbook pro

    How much free disk space is available ??
    Click the Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About this Mac > More Info > System Report then select Storage on the left under Hardware.
    You'll see Available and Capacity. Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.
    If there's sufficient free disk space, check for login items. Open System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Items
    Delete any items there then restart your Mac to test.
    some times while using safari the cursor is in not responding i mean doing some process its showing colour wheel rotating
    Try troubleshooting plugins and extensions...
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Security tab.
    Deselect:  Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.
    If it's not a plug-in issue, select the Extensions tab. If there are any extensions installed, turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.  If that made a difference, uninstall one at a time, quit and relaunch Safari to test.

  • Where can i buy original memory for my macbook pro 13inc mid 2012 and how much is this ?

    Where can i buy original memory for my macbook pro 13inc mid 2012 and how much is this ?

    "Memory sold by the Apple Online Store is guaranteed to be compatible with your Macintosh."
    http://store.apple.com/us/mac/mac-accessories/memory
    Other than Apple there are only two vendors with which I have personal experience and can recommend: Crucial and OWC. People have reported problems with many other brands, yet Crucial and OWC's prices are as good as any you are likely to find.
    Go to Crucial and download the little app that examines your system and recommends RAM upgrade options.
    Their prices are good but don't have to buy memory from them - determine what you need and buy it from Crucial or OWC / MacSales. You'd be paying Apple a lot more than either one of them, and you don't have to.

    You have too much junk installed…
    The 'easy' way - reinstall
    I think you will be quickest backing up the HD to an external disk (check it still boots!). Erase the internal HD, reinstall 10.9, migrate your USER DATA ONLY back to 10.9, reinstall the apps you use, then delete the old login items & user launchd jobs that migrated. You should have a stable system at the end of it.
    The hard way - 'cleaning up'
    Firstly search these forums for opinions on running Sophos's AV - it adds extra work to your system & many have had issues with it on 10.9. At the very least ensure it is the latest release & 10.9 supported. Sophos is running 7 system level background jobs and 2 kernel extensions! These all can modify how the system runs.
    At the end of cleanup you may have a stable system - it really depends on how much effort you put into clearing out all the system level jobs that are not compatible with 10.9. The developers don't make it easy to remove software too, so you may have a lot of searching to do (for instructions & uninstallers).

    Uninstall Jacksta, the 'startup items' have been deprecated since 10.4 - Apple told developers to stop using them years ago.
    Update all the other apps listed or find uninstallers/ removal instructions to correctly remove the software.
    Are all those sierrawireless and novatelwireless drivers used or needed anymore?
    Can you uninstall BlueStacks? It's failing to run jobs inside your user account, get rid of things that don't work (or update them & check they do work).
    Java's updater is failing to run - is Java up to date? Do you need Java installed? It isn't installed on Mac OS anymore because of it's lousy security record. Update or remove if you don't need it.
    You could try removing Sophos & find that the Mac runs OK - but eventually having all the old kernel extensions & background jobs around will eventually cause something else to break.

  • Macbook Pro 15 mid 2012 friezes in the games.

    Добрый день! Возникла проблема с моим Macbook про 15 mid 2012. С некоторых пор появились фризы в играх, вне зависимости от сложности игры и ее 2D или 3D движка.
    Отнес в официальный сервис, провели диагностику, ничего не выявили. Почистили, заменили термопасту, и сказали мне, что просто игры становятся сложнее а ноутбук не успевает за ними. И в заключении написали не подтвердились проблемы заявленные мной.
    По моему меня просто проигнорировали.
    Предположу что проблема в видеочипе. Но почему при принудительной смене на интегрированный чип, ничего не поменялось.
    Что было сделано еще до сервисного центра.
    Была обновлена Йосимите до последней версии, затем в качестве проверки, была установлена Маверикс.
    Ничего не изменилось.
    Good afternoon! There was a problem with my Macbook pro 15 mid 2012. For some time now there friezes in the games, regardless of the complexity of the game and its 2D or 3D engine.
    Took it to the official service, held diagnostics have revealed nothing. Cleaned, replaced the thermal paste, and told me that just the game become more complex and the laptop does not have time for them. And finally wrote not confirmed the problem stated by me.
    In my opinion I just ignored.
    I suppose that the problem in the video chip. But why the forced change in the integrated chip, nothing has changed.
    What has been done before the service center.
    Yosimite been updated to the latest version, then as a test, was set Mavericks.
    Nothing has changed.

    Forgot to add. The problem is the same Windows or OS X. Games in which problems are identified: Craft the world, World of tanks, Warthunder, Diablo 3. And if something last three require the system, which is the first video on this 2d game for any kind of video cards.

  • MacBook Pro 15'' mid 2012 does not boot

    Hi
    We upgraded our MacBook Pro 15'' (mid 2012) we changed the memory from 4GB to 16GB, changed the hard-disk for a 512GB Samsung SSD and installed 10.10 Yosemite (clean install)
    Everything worked OK, we installed some software. All of a sudden the laptop switched itself of. We thought the battery was empty but as it turned out, the notebook is dead. When starting we hear the clicking sound of the DVD drive but that's it, no chime. The screen stays black although we think we see some backlight, very weakly.
    We tried a lot, putting back the old drive and memory but the behavior is the same. We removed all memory and then the MBP beeps, but does not start.
    Reset PRAM, reset SMC, removed the battery, nothing helps.
    - Is the beeping an indication that the CPU still works?
    - What can be the cause of this?
    - What can we do?
    Thanks in advance for the help.
