  • Finder stuck on Music folder on brand new MacBook Pro Retina

    I've recently switched from Windows to Mac. The brand new MacBook Pro has been having issues ever since I got it, crashed during its first install/set up, etc. But until now, I could always figure things out. Now I accidentally clicked on my music folder (bad idea, I know), but finder is now crashed and I don't seem to be able to find a solution anymore.
    I have tried relaunching the app, but since the music folder crashes, that is of no help. I have tried killall Finder through the terminal, but that crashed (presumably - I just quit terminal after 30min of nothing happening but the progress wheel spinning away), I tried rebooting without relaunching apps (several times), but it either crashes on trying to shut down (hard shut down after 30min) or restarts with the two darn finder windows open. I am at my wits' end.

    Yes, that's why I just wanted to make sure it's normal...
    Aside from that, nothing else seems wrong with the laptop and it seems like a hassle to go through if it's normal to have some battery cycles on a new Macbook. 
    Has anyone heard of resellers such as MacMall resealing returned laptops and selling them as new?  Has anyone else noticed a high cycle count on their brand new Macbook?

  • I just got a virus on my new MacBook Pro I used to get on my PC!

    This is my first Mac, and I am freaking out. I was just browsing the internet with Safari, and all of a sudden I had a popup that said, "Your PC is running slower than normal. You need to scan for viruses!" I tried just closing it, but it just kept popping up more and more. I eventually had to force quit Safari.
    What do I need to do to get rid of this thing??? PLEASE HELP!!

    I think you are freaking out a little. The pop-ups are probably just advertising and wants you to click somewhere so they can sell something. Ignore them. Don't visit that page again.
    If your computer seems sluggish it might be the worldwide Internet that is sluggish somewhere. It happens to me too. It was very pronounced during the Olympic Games. It is also a bit of a problem when America wakes up and I want to access an american site! It usually resolves it self if one has a little patience.

  • Brand new MacBook Pro – 'sticky' keys

    Hi all
    I just bought a brand new MacBook Pro retina 15", which came with Mavericks pre-installed (currently on 10.9.1).
    I've been having a really irritating issue with the keyboard since I started using it. The Mac seems to think that certain keys are 'sticky' – this is not a physical problem, but a virtual one. It's incredibly hard to describe, but basically, every few minutes, a (seemingly random) key will act as though it is stuck down. Not on the physical keyboard itself, but on screen. It really frequently happens when I use command+tab to switch apps. I'll hit the keys once, but all of a sudden the app menu will stay on screen, with the selected app cycling round indefinitely – even once I have let go of the keys. Also, in Photoshop it seems to think the space bar is held down a lot of the time, so I can't click on anything until I hit space again to disable it. Another instance is hitting command+C to copy, and it not registering. So I have to hit it again.
    My usual set up is to use a wireless (bluetooth) Apple keyboard and Magic Mouse, with a Wacom tablet plugged in via USB. However I have systematically tried various things to narrow it down. At first I thought it was the Apple wireless keyboard, but that works just fine on my old iMac. Then I thought it could be my (fairly old) Wacom tablet causing the problem, but that works OK on my iMac too.
    I have turned off both Bluetooth and wireless on the MacBook, and unplugged the Wacom, and the issue persists even when using the built-in keyboard and trackpad.
    Anything I can do, or should I take it to an Apple Store?
    Thanks

  • I have a brand new macbook pro that i was doing a data transfer from an old macbook, it got stopped/cable pulled out, now have spinning wheel of death that wont stop, how do i reboot/stop the wheel of death and start again?

    i have a brand new macbook pro that i was doing a data transfer via firewire from an old macbook, it got stopped/cable pulled out, now have spinning wheel of death that wont stop, how do i reboot/stop the wheel of death and start again? (this time il use time machine transfer)

    Just power off the machine(s). Shut them down. Migration Assistant gets 'stuck' sometimes - best way to migrate really isn't over Firewire, though it will certainly work, but with both machines hardwired via Ethernet to the same router. You can use a TM backup, too, of course, provided that it's recent. Which is the best? Your choice. I've done it both ways and have a preference for MA, but TM restore can be a bit faster and less quarrelsome.

  • Brand new MacBook Pro 2011 got stolen

    sorry I can't find a place post this so I post this here. This unfortunate event happened yesterday. I got my brand new MacBook Pro 2011 from the apple store and I went to pick up takeout at a plaza 10 mins away. My car got broken in and my Brand new MacBook Pro was stolen. I just went to pick up take out for 10 mins only. I m wondering if there is anything that Apple can do such as tracking the serial number? I have the receipt with me luckily.
    Thanks

    i have had my macbook stolen before
    the apple store people will say you cannot do anything
    you have to call tech support, its the tech support people that will flag your serial number on your laptop
    unfortunately with you laptop only being a few minutes new, and they probably stole the whole thing with box and components you have a lower chance of ever retrieving it,
    i feel for you man, i know what it is like to get your mac stolen

  • I have just opened my brand new Macbook Pro and I'm a first time mac user. I have tried to download flash to enable me to watch you tube clips, but on trying to download it, it says I need to close Safari but after doing so, it still won't respond.

    Actually you need to quit Safari which is different from closing.  With Safari open go the menu bar for Safari/Quit Safari.

  • HT201364 just purchased new macbook pro retina and not able to download osx mavericks.is this problem common?

    I have just purchased a new macbook pro retina and I am unable to download OSX Mavericks.I would be grateful of any help with this.

    The available download is not able to boot your Mac because of the newer hardware in that Mac. When Apple releases an update that has the necessary drivers, you should be able to download it.
    The versions provided in Recovery will be able to boot your Mac if you need to reinstall.

  • Brand new macbook pro stuck on restart screen

    Your machine already has Mavericks installed. Why are you trying to download it?

  • My puppy got water all on my NEW macbook pro

    So basically, I had my new macbook pro (mid 2012) for only about an hour when my puppy decided to jump on the table and got my laptop all wet. This was last night. She had just gone in her kiddie pool so it's just water, not chlorinated. My first concern was the screen since I already have another macbook pro with a cracked screen. The screen was wet. She stomped on the left side of keyboard with her wet paws too. I'm not too sure if a lot of water went inside because at this time I was concerned about the water on the right speaker. It took me about a minute or two to wipe it all off. I then tested out the speakers by playing music. It was fine from what I can hear... I didn't really get to use the speakers beforehand so I don't know what to compare it too. I also tested out the keyboard and everything seemed to work. I had the macbook still running searching for what to do with the water. Come to find out I should have turned it off immediately.
    So the macbook was still running fine. I turned it off to take the battery off, but I didn't have a twi-wing screwdriver. I ordered a whole tool kit from ifixit and it's suppose to come in tomorrow.
    I did flip the macbook upside down. And I am planning on taking it apart when my kit comes in to see what is going on. If the LSI is red. Is the LSI built in the macbook, or are they stickers? And can they be purchased somewhere?
    Anyway, do you guys think my macbook is fine? Or is corrosion gonna happen? Or if it's running fine now, will it last?
    I would just take this macbook back and say I changed my mind, but it's customized and I read that you can't return customized macbooks. UUUUGH!
    What should I do?

    Take the computer to an Apple store or an AASP for a proper diagnoses.  Whichever is more convenient for you.
    Liquid damage is not covered under Apple's standard 1 year warranty or Apple Care. 
    Apple does have a no questions asked 14 days from the date of purchase return policy.
    NOTE:  If you purchased the computer with a credit card, discuss the warranty issue with the credit card company which you purchased the computer with.   They are the only ones who can at this point cover the computer after it goes out of warranty with the manufacturer (Apple). 
    If you have Homeowners insurance, place a claim with them.
    DIY Instructions
    Immediately disconnect all peripherals, power cord & remove the battery.  Turn the computer over with the lid partly open and the hinge facing upward to let the liquid drain.  Do not flop it over and lay it flat - you want to separate it from the moisture.  Place paper or cloth towels under the machine to sop up the mess.
    After the computer disgorges whatever you spilled on it, don't turn it on for 72 hours or longer.  You want to computer to dry out completely before turning it on again.
    Some users here swear by hairdryers.  Blow drying the innards may bake whatever was in the liquid onto delicate computer components.  Better to let the computer air dry.
    Use plain tepid water to clean out the computer.  If you spilled iced beverage more than likely this ice fried the hot motherboard.
    Sugary, acidic or milky drinks will almost always cause problems later on as the residue starts slowly corroding the computer innards.
    Swab down any sticky parts with distilled water or denatured alcohol.
    If none of the above works, you will need to take the computer to a repair shop.  Apple Care does not cover liquid or food damage.  Believe me, they can tell.  So the old "my computer stopped working" line is not going to work.

  • Brand new macbook pro, stuck by FileVault!

  • Is it true that the new MacBook Pro retinas got issues with latency?

    I'm thinking of ordering the late 2013 MacBook Pro Retina 15 inch, with 2.6 Ghz, 16GB RAM , 512SSD
    I'm gonna use it mainly for live keys sounds using mainstage, logic, omnisphere, ableton etc. After reading a forum, I found that the new macs are pretty bad with latency, is this gonna be a big problem...suggestions?

    We don't know. Anything you see on a rumor site like Apple Insider is just that - rumor. No one knows when new models will be released until Apple makes a public announcement. If you wish to base your decisions on the rumor mill then do so, but we cannot tell you whether they are valid or not.
