New macbook pro line

hello i was wondering if they will release a new macbook pro line like late 2011 early 2012 because i wan't to get one but last time i bought a mac the new one came out a week later

It is purely speculation at this point so I don't think anything will be very accurate but if you look at the history of releases, MacBook Pros have been refreshed in early spring late winter.

New MacBook Pro line coming soon?

I am days away from buying a new MacBook Pro 13 inch, but wanted to see if anyone heard rumors of new MBP's coming soon? If so, are there any upgraded features worth waiting for?

I would highly recommend holding off if you can, from what I've seen from several sites is that the new MBP line is within the next month, three at the most. The refresh should include some decent new technology. I would do a google search on "macbook pro rumors" if you want more speculation regarding what may or may not be in the next line. BTW, seriously looking forward to the refresh of the MBP line.

I have a white vertical line down the right side of my internal brand new macbook pro 13" display

I have a white vertical line down the right side of my internal brand new macbook pro 13" display. I've done the following:
-Shutdown the computer, and restarted in Safe Mode by pressing the Shift key after the restart tone
-Shutdown the computer, and restarted by pressing Command, Option, P & R after the restart tone
-Checked display resolution, Best for Retina
-Hooked it up to a Dell external monitor and via projection to screen. There are no lines on the external or secondary screens
-Just curious, I ran a color utility which can not repair 4 items, maybe this is another issue.
This is a brand new Macbook Pro, just out of the box. It was fine for two days without any issues, fine last night while in use, opened it up this morning with the line.
Anyone now how I can fix this on my own?

If you are within the first 14 days from the date of purchase, return the MBP for a refund or an exchange. If you are after the first 14 days of the date of purchase, have the MBP repaired under the warranty provisions.

There is no line in audio on the new Macbook Pro ?

Hi,
I just got my new Macbook pro (Retina with 16gb). I'm surprised because i don't see the option for adjust in/out audio ? There is no line audio in on the new macbook pro ?
Thanks

To the best of my understanding from reading many posts on here, the best answers I can come up with to your questions are as follows:
Verizon is supposed to be upgrading its signal format for several of its HD channels that will prevent your old box from decoding them. This is why they are upgrading you to a new box. As for the 7100-P2, Verizon was attempting to make a smaller, more sleek-looking and energy efficient STB. While I could be wrong about this next statement, I believe that this model could also be set either flat or on-end (like a book). If you set this box on-end then the clock display would have been very hard to read. There is no software update that can fix this issue because there is no LCD display on the front of the box to display the numbers. And yes, there are complaints all over these forums regarding the lack of clock display on this model. It would have served Verizon well to have consulted with its customers before making this change.
There are 2 other models of HD STB that can receive the new signal and have a front-panel clock display. But unless you have a Verizon FiOS store nearby that would be willing to let you swap for one of those, requesting another exchange for your functional 7100-P2 may or may not be free. And you could just end up with another 7100-P2.
Hope this helps.

Have a new macbook pro and on the display there are 2 lines, one blue and one green on the left side. Does anyone know what the problem is. Happened after 2 weeks.

I just purchased a new macbook pro. Have had it about 2 weeks. Last night there were 2 thin lines that are on the left side of the desktop, 1 green and 1 blue from top to bottom. This happened after I added a printer. Anyone know what this is. Fearing that is a flaw in the screen.

Sounds like a hardware problem. You'll need to contact Apple ASAP. Since it's so new, hopefully they will just replace it rather than making you go through the repair process, but that's up to them.

I opened my brand new MacBook Pro the other day and noticed a straight green line from top to bottom near the center of the screen. What is it from and how do I get rid of it????

I am having a problem with my brand new MacBook Pro. After opening my laptop the other day I noticed a straight green line from top to bottom near the center of the screen. What is this from and how do I get rid of it? It is most annoying. Please Help!

"What is this from and how do I get rid of it?"
Such symptoms bode serious hardware issues and you shouldn't think about fixing it yourself when you are still in waranty. Get to an Apple Store, like the other poster suggests.

My new Macbook Pro (or how I got an heart attack but refused to die)

I have been using linux for many years now, and have had some really good experiences with it. The good thing is that you can do whatever you want in linux, the bad thing is that it takes so much time. For many years this wasn't a problem, but since I started studying music I've been pretty busy with touring and recording, and configuring linux takes too much time. Therefore, I was advised to buy a Mac, and so I did. It took two weeks to arrive, and I barely slept those weeks, because after reading about the new Macbook Pros(mid 2009) on the Apple webpage I was stoked. When I got it I almost **** myself! I was so happy when I got it! The first bad thing I noticed was that you could easily push the left side of the undercover down a little, which didn't make it as solid as I thought it would be. But, that was just a little detail. The first thing I did after watching the intro video was to play around with it, and after half an hour, I heard the disk spin faster than usual, then stop, and then it made a beep. Strange, I thought, but went on to format it and reinstall Os X without much of the crap that followed it, so I could get more space, even though I had upgraded it so I had a 500gb 7200RPM hard drive. After reinstalling it I did the usual stuff: add my mails to Apple Mail, get MSN, install music applications etc. During this, I would still get that faster spin, followed with a stopping of the hard drive, and a beep. Still strange, and now even annoying, but I thought that it's alright. A few days later I did a test recording with my jazzband, and we did an amazing recording! As it was all improvised, we were very happy to have it recorded. What we discovered when we played it back though, was that it made a strange noise several places in the recording. I didn't know what it was, but I was really ****** that it ruined the recording. A few days later I was recording something on my midi-keyboard internally, and then I heard that spin and beep again. When I played back the recording I heard that noise just where the beep had been, so I just figured that when the hard drive spins and beeps, it have a hard time saving what's being recorded, and therefore it ends up being noise. I got ****** off, as I had spent 2660USD(with student discount) on a machine so that I wouldn't have any problems, but ended up having one anyways. I called AppleCare and explained the problem, and they said that they would call me back with a solution. Three days later I got a phone, and they told me that it was because the hard disks get put to sleep after some time, and puts something on the hard drive to protect it, and that's what's making the noise. My answer was:
1. IF that was the case, how come you make it like that, so the hard disks are put to sleep when active, like when you are recording?
2. IF that was the case, how come you make it like that, so it makes a noise in the recording when they are put to sleep? and
3. That's not the case, as I don't have that option enabled, both with or without power supply.
He didn't have any answer to this, and said he would call me up later. Three days later he called me up and told me that the noise was most probably because of noise caused by ground loops. I told him that I have read a little about it, and that it most likely wasn't that, but he still sent me an informative mail on how to fix it. I read it, and followed it, but as expected: nothing got better. I told him that, and he said that he would look into it - after two weeks of vacation. As I start my study on August 11. and are going to record from about that date, I can't wait, so today I called AppleCare and spoke to another guy. He let me wait 20 minutes on line(my expense, ofcourse), before saying that they didn't have an answer now, but would call me back tomorrow.
I also bought a Mighty Mouse with the Macbook Pro. I was well aware of the fact that it isn't configured for right click, so I configured it when I plugged it in, but still right click wouldn't work. I called AppleCare and explained, and the guy told me that "it is a very special mouse". He explained how to use it, what I already knew, and as I didn't have more money to call with, the phone ended the call. Needless to say, it still isn't working properly. The right click works every now-and-then, and the buttons on the side works once a week.
As I already told you, I am a musician. After not having to spend times fixing things, like in linux, the music software was the biggest reason I got a Mac. I bought Logic Studio, and was amazed when I got it. It was great! ...for 20 minutes, then I got this overload message, despite the fact that I had two tracks with a couple of loops, and a brand new computer. This bugged me very much, but what was worse was the fact that two weeks later, the new version of Logic came out, and I got no discount on upgrading.
As you might understand, I am starting to get really ****** off. I called Eplehuset, the most official Apple reseller in Norway, and they told me it would take two weeks to fix my Macbook Pro, and that I wouldn't get a machine while waiting. Since I start in the university in 8 days, I can't do that. I just have to load off some of my rage here, and I also hope that you have some tips on how to fix the hard drive.

My eyes just glazed over...Please in the future break down each of your issues with paragraphs separated by two carriage returns. It would be much easier when trying to address your issues.
Go to Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Mouse
And edit your mouse settings to do what you want it to do.
Secondly, this is not the place to vent. If you have a complaint, there is:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
or http://www.apple.com/contact/
We are just end users here helping other end users.
Third, from my understanding, it would appear you are concerned about the noise the hard drive makes when it falls asleep? Why not put your machine in screen saver mode instead? Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Energy Saver turn off all Energy Saver settings, or set them to run Never.
Fourth, if your machine was purchased just a few days ago, you may still be able to get an exchange from the store, quicker than you can get a repair done. You may want to look into that possibility.
Fifth, it does appear you found the Logic forum. I would persist in asking there how to solve your technical issue with Logic regarding the audio. It may be you don't have to do anything special to the hard drive. Remember audio can be transmitted by wire, avoiding ambient sounds.
Good luck!

What is the exact name of the cable I need to connect my old hard drive from my macbook pro (it has been taken out of the computer) to my new macbook pro? I need to transfer files from the old hard drive to the new computer.

No eSATA to USB. Just a SATA/IDE to USB adapter. Google SATA/IDE to USB adapter and you will get tons of links to buy them. Most likely your local computer electronics store has them, although they might be more expensive buying locally than online.
I have several. You can get either USB 2, which what I recommend, or USB 3. USB is backward compatible so a USB 3 adapter will work on a USB 2 port and a USB 2 adapter will work on a USB 3 port. Backward compatible in both directions.
I suggest a USB 2 type because there have been some problems with certain USB 3 devices, the USB 3 interface used isn't all that good in those certain devices. USB 3 is still fairly new where as USB 2 has been around for over 10 years.

Thank you LowLuster,
At the apple store they said I needed an esata to usb wire. But looking at wires on line has been confusing. Is sata the same as esata? How do I know if I need a usb 3 or usb 2?

I recently bought a new macbook pro and set it up using the migration assistant and my mac mini. I can't get the text message forwarding feature to work with both computers.

I recently bought a new macbook pro and set it up using the migration assistant from my mac mini. I can't get the text message forwarding feature to work with both computers. It keeps saying that I only have 2 devices setup, my iPad and my macbook pro. When I mess with the setting on my mac mini, it goes from saying that that is one of the devices to my macbook pro being the 2nd device. I think that something happened as a result of my using the migration assistant and now it thinks that my macbook pro and my mac mini are one and the same computer. Any ideas?

Thanks, Sig.

In going over this, thanks to "tallking it out" with you, I did discover the Text Edit problem. Because I've still been unable to get the new computer text size (fonts or whatever) to match the old computer, I did not notice that the curser is now different--the line midway down the curser has to be placed on the line I am working upon, otherwise the edits go elsewhere on the page. Now, with a bit of difficulty, I am able to get Text Edit to work correctly.
If you have any ideas as to why my menu bar and Text Edit type are still so slow, I'd love to have them.
(I went through the process you suggested earlier, re my Trackpad preferences, and found no improvement.)

Why I am buying a new MacBook Pro now, but, first, any major issues?

With the delay of Ivy Bridge, and with my personal view that the next generation of MacBook Pro notebooks will be dropping FireWire 800 to service a better design, I have decided to purchase a new MacBook Pro now.
I just cannot imagine the new notebooks having a FireWire or Ethernet port, as they add too much thickness.
While I keep MacBook Pros for up to 4-years, I think this new purchase will have to be a transition computer, as the next model will probably be too irresitable. Having the option of then moving my data via Thunderbolt to Thunderbolt (Tarket Disk Mode) is very appealing too.
So, any issues with the current line?
Specifically, has anyone had a screen flicker issue or anything else major?
Would anyone dare say Thunderbolt is unreliable?
I really appreciate any thoughts on this - Thank you!

I am so sorry, but you are dead wrong.
First, people get their problems resolved here quickly. A majority of the issues here are "Newbie" issues.
I have been a Mac user since 2007, and I have been on these forums since that time too. I have never once seen a horror story like the ones found on the Dell, Lenovo, and HP support forums that pop up on an hourly basis.
Read those forums, and you will get tears in your eyes.
Anytime I have called Apple or visited an Apple Store, they have treated me like a God.
Apple hardware is bullet proof made of the best materials on the planet. A MacBook Pro is far stronger and more durable than any ThinkPad, Dell Precision, or HP Elitebook.
Just open up a MacBook Pro to look at the insides as compared to the disaster zones of the aforementioned PCs.
Oh.... and no bloody stickers on MY notebook.
Everything just works.
Little things come up, but they are always solved.
Now, add programs like Joint Venture, and heaven is a place on earth.
No PC company comes close to treating their customers the way Apple has treated me since 07.
Apple has earned my business for life.
Right now, I can schedule a call with Apple - What PC company does that?
Apple = Unequaled products, service, and support. No PC company can come close to any of those three traits.
PS
And none of those PC forums have people like Kappy, Eww, Bee, Niel, iVmichael, sig, Etresoft, (yourself), and all the other fine members of this community that make it such a pleasure...

How do i sync my iPhone to a new macbook pro and start a new apple ID?

Ok, so I just go a new macbook pro for college, and what I am trying to do is sync my iphone with my new computer and get all my music etc onto the new mac. But i also want to start a new apple ID. I previously have had my iphone synced on the family's imac under the family apple id. Now i want to sync that iphone onto my computer and also start my own apple ID linked to my iphone and computer.
I can't figure out how to do this without having to reset the iphone.
( I already created the new ID)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I just bought a new MacBook Pro. I managed to transfer everything to the new laptop. BUT I'm having some real problems--e.g., wg from my older one to the new one. Both use the same latest version of Snow Leopard. My new laptop has the newer track pad.

I just bought a new MacBook Pro. I managed to transfer everything from my older MacBook Pro to the new one. Both use Snow Leopard, the latest update.
My new one has the newest trackpad, the old one, no.
I'm have big problems using Text Edit on the new laptop--the curser does not go where I want it to go for editing, I cannot get the text to be a clear or as large
as with the older Laptop. Similarly, I cannot find a way to enlarge the menu bar. But the text edit is my biggest problem right now. I have reviewed all the preferences, particularly those in Universal Access, to no avail.
I finally gave up, used dropbox to send the text edit document to my old laptop, and continued with ease. But this is not the way it should work. I bought the
new laptop because the old one is showing signs of age.....
Is there something wrong with Text Edit while using the new trackpad?

Hard drive problems on new macbook pro

I have a brand new macbook pro with very few applications and music and the "Other" section of my hard drive is 80/120GB? Can I reduce this? If so how?

First, your problem has nothing to do with Time Machine. Don't turn it off.
ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
Launch the 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.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders. It may take some minutes for ODS to list all the files.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal.

A few questions in purchasing a new MacBook Pro

I have recently become a full Apple fan (I have been a PC person for nearly 28 years), and am in the process of purchasing a new MacBook Pro (as my old HP Pavilion is on it's last legs). As I am in this process, I am trying to decide which MacBook Pro fits my needs, and thought the Apple community might be able to help. Here are the things I am looking for:
1) I did recently finish graduate school, and although I have a steady income, I would prefer to still be economical with what I spend - I don't really need the top-of-the-line model (as much as I'd love the retina display screen), but I do want to get what will fit for me.
2) I typically like my laptops to last 4-6 years. Here is what I typically use my computer for:
      -I don't do a lot of gaming no my computers
      -I do like watching streaming videos or dvd's a lot
      -I do a lot of photo editing - I currently use Adobe Photoshop Pro, but don't know what I will use on the Mac yet.
      -I do a lot of reviewing of photos as well
      -I also have a large media library (audio and a little video) - incidentally, I DO need an optical drive/cd drive so I can import my music purchases.
3) My computer is currently a 17" screen - while I love the size of my current screen - the price of the larger screens with the MacBook Pro's is almost prohibitive. I'm currently debating betweent he 13" and the 15". This brought up my final question:
     The 13" MacBook Pro offers the following for processors: Section 1: Up to 2.7GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor; however a second section stated it had an "2.5GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 or 2.9GHz dual-core Intel Core i7 processor". I'm not sure why the 13" had both of these listed as possibilites (perhaps it's in the customization of the computer?) ***Actually, as I am reading the information further, it seems that the quad-cores mentioned on one of the pages are not available in the 13"***
     The 15" offers an "Up to 2.7GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor (it looks like it's a 2.3 OR 2.7GHz quad-core processor respectively)"
I understand that most current programs are written only for a "dual-core" processor, and as such a dual-core processor will outperform a quad-core processor currently; however, once programs start getting written for quad-core processors, those computers will take a drastic jump forward in processing speed. To be honest, I am not sure which processor I need both in terms of what I'm doing now, and also in terms of running well in 4-6 years. What is the difference in the i5 and i7 processors - is the dual/quad core processing the only difference? Further, what difference is the 2.5 vs 2.9 GHz processor (or for the 15" screen the 2.3 or 2.7 GHz processor)?
I know this was a long winded question, but I want to make sure that I get the most for the money I spend, and that it will do what I need it to for the next several years. Thanks in advance for any help/guidance you all can offer!

My buying advice - the 'entry-level' new 15" MacBook Pro. Take a look at the specs. It's a wonderful machine - and you can upgrade RAM and HD to fit your needs without voiding the warranty. I don't know of any apps that I currently run that can't take advantage of the quad-core, and almost everything is 64-bit now.
I'd used the money you saved from not buying an out-dated 17" and put it into software. If you're transitioning from Windows that can add up quickly (which isn't to say you can't run your Windows apps using Boot Camp or a VM like Parallels.
Just my opinion - but if I could buy anything I wanted right now, I'd go with one of the upgraded 15" non-Retina MacBook Pros.
