New Retina Macbook Pro running mavericks gets stuck at one minute during setup when coping files via USB

Running setup on a late 2013 Retina Macbook Pro for the first time process gets stuck saying "Less then a minute remaining". Transfer is via USB from a clone of my drive on an external drive that is bootable from my 2007 Macbook Pro running 10.68. Have run disk utility on drive and fixed premissions in advance of running set up. Have had the same happen when I activate the new Retina Macbook Pro without running setup and then running Migration ***'nt later.

  • CS5 Photoshop/Bridge/Suite not working on new Retina Macbook Pro, running Mavericks 10.9.2

    I recently purchased a new Retina MacBook Pro laptop running Mavericks OS X 10.9.2. I had Apple perform a data migration of all my apps and files from my older laptop onto the new one. Now when I go to open Photoshop CS5 I receive the following error message, "Could not synchronize the color settings because of a program error." Photoshop will then open but I can't do anything in the app. When I go to quit Photoshop I get this error message: "Could not save Preferences because the file is locked or you do not have the necessary access privileges. Use the 'Get Info' command in the Finder to unlock the file or change permissions on the file or enclosing folders."
    I am able to open Bridge, however the app in entiretly is noticeably lo-res and pixelated looking, so clearly something is not up to speed there either.
    InDesign and Illustrator are also having issues.
    I have run the System Update and it does not show anything in the CS5 Suite needing to be updated.
    Please advise! Thank you.

    I do not get the Airplay icon on my Macbook's menu bar. I have checked the box in the Display settings to show mirroring options but still no icon. Airplay Display shows 'No device Detected'. Both AppleTV and MacBook Pro are on the same physical Network (192.168.1.0/24) and connected directly to my home ethernet switch (not wirelessly). I also made sure MacBook's Firewall is disable. Airplay feature use to work before upgrade to 10.9.2. As far as Home sharing from my AppleTV has a similar issue; it just does not find my MacBook after a while of loading and searching my music library. I am logged in to icloud on both devices (appletv and macbook). Also use to work before upgrade. Any ideas or recommendations. Thanks.

  • I have a new Macbook Pro running Mavericks and safari consistently freezes. It takes several 'return/enter' presses to get to the page I requested. I have seen other comments and replies on how to fix (clear cache, clear extensions/plug-ins), to no avail.

    I have a new macbook pro running mavericks and only using Safari as my browser.  75% of my url requests are 'hung up' and freeze.  I have seen other posts and have tried to clear cache, reset safari, remove extensions, but to no avail.
    Any recommendations?

    If it works in a new user account, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

  • I have a new l7 macbook pro running snow leopard.  When I try to boot into windows7 32bit, I get either a blue, black, or flickering screen.  Then I have to physically shut down and try again.  At that point it will load correctly.  Any help?

    I have a new l7 Macbook Pro running snow leopard.  When I tried to to install windows 7 32 bit on bootcamp, I kept getting a flicking black and blue screen when it tried to install. (Tried several times).  I finally downloaded the bootcamp windows support to a flash.  I inserted that and finally got it installed.  Now when I try to boot into windows I get either a solid black (sometimes blue) or flickering screen and windows will not start up.  If I then physically shut down the mac and restart, it will finally boot into windows where it tells me that windows was shut down unexpectently and once I click start windows normally, it will boot up.  That will generally let me boot into windows for the remaining of the day.  The next day, the same thing happens again.  I have tried reinstalling several times, and the same thing keeps happening.  It is not my windows disk because it installs flawlessly on the mid 2008 macbook pro.  Anyone know how to fix this?

  • How do I perform a "Suite Product Activation" so that Acrobat will start working on my new Retina MacBook Pro?

    How do I perform a "Suite Product Activation" so that Acrobat will start working on my new Retina MacBook Pro?
    Like others, I have recently upgraded my MacBook Pro to the next generation and migrated all my information from old to new. Everything works seamlessly EXCEPT Acrobat. Photoshop, Indesign, Bridge and Lightroom all seem functional. Acrobat hangs with an error message "Suite Product Activation Needed. Acrobat was installed as part of a suite. To enable Acrobat, please start another element of the suite (such as Photoshop)." Needless to say, starting another element of the suite has NO impact on Acrobat.
    This has to be a common problem. Now that Apple has made it really easy to migrate information from old to new machines, it has to come up all the time. What surprises me greatly is that I can't find any coherent answer in these forums.
    So how do I get Acrobat running again?

    Hi Anubha,
    I do not understand what you said below.
    I am running Adobe Acrobat Pro Version 9.5.5. I do not remember whether it came with Photoshop or InDesign.
    When I open Photoshop, it opens without my having to follow any instructions to activate the software. As a matter of fact, I cannot find my Photoshop serial number anywhere in the Photoshop program itself. I do know it from my profile at Adobe.com. Are you suggesting I deactivate Photoshop on the new computer and then reactivate it using my serial number? Will it reactivate?
    When you say
    "/Library/Application Support/Adobe" at the root level of the startup disk (not the Library folder inside a user's Home folder)
    what do you mean? I do not have a startup disk. I have the original installation disk but that version of Photoshop has been updated a few times.
    After staring at your instructions for a while, I realized that you might be talking about the Library/Application Support folders resident on my Macintosh HD, although why you called it a startup disk is unclear to me. IAC, I went into those folders and duly moved the three folders into a new folder I called “Acrob1” and restarted Adobe Acrobat 9 and got the following error message: “AMT Subsystem Failure  The licensing subsystem has failed catastrophically. You must reinstall of call customer support.” with a small (6).
    By undoing my actions I am back to the staus quo ante.
    Now what?
    Regards, Robert

  • Yosemite is messing with my new Retina Macbook Pro's sound output, help.

    I just got my new Retina Macbook Pro 2 months ago and have been noticing some audio output issues. When I try to connect an external third-party audio device to run my KRK monitors my computer does not recognize the device and will not switch the audio output. After trying to set it manually my macbook won't even revert to the internal speakers for output and then I have to reboot my pro in order to get audio output again. This will happen randomly throughout the day after my computer has been in sleep as well, and sometimes the volume buttons get greyed out as well. Please help me with this issue as this is a new computer and it is becoming a nuisance. Even when connecting through HDMI, my audio output does not function and no sound will come out of the TV. I realize that this is probably a Yosemite glitch, but I just need to know if there is any fixes for this issue. Thanks so much for your time,

  • 15 inch Retina macbook pro running hot/overheating.. what to do?

    Hello,
    I just got my new retina macbook pro. FIrst impressing- the thing is awesome. However, In the process of putting all the stuff from my old PC onto this new machine, I was importing photos into iPhoto. I noticed the computer getting very hot after importing about 1000/5000 photos, so cancelled the import. I downloaded temperature guage from the app store, as well as iStat Pro. Below is a screenshot taken with both monitoring apps open while attempting the import. (these were the only three programs running at the time).
    This is a little unsettling.. a 3800$ computer that 'overheats' while attemping to import photos...? Is this normal? I called apple and they said to bring it into a store and the tecs will have a look. I asked if i could simply return the computer (as it hasnt been 14 days yet), but i was told i would be charged a 10% (or roughly 380$) restocking fee...

    I note that the CPU temperature shown by iStat pro and Temperature gauge vary significantly.  What the former reports is satisfactory but not the latter.  Both cannot be right.  I have used iStat pro and Temperature Monitor and they are always very close to each others data.  You might download same and see how it compares with the other two temperature monitors:
    http://www.bresink.com/osx/TemperatureMonitor.html
    For a little peace of mind a trip to the Apple store genius bar would be a good idea.  At least it will tell you if the 'Temperature Guage application is accurate or not.
    Ciao.

  • OSX 8.2 new Retina Macbook Pro won't wake from sleep.

    Since upgrade to OSX 8.2 new Retina Macbook Pro won't wake from sleep. Tablet lights are on in morning and fans running like crazy, but it requires hard quit and start. Tried with no apps running, no change. It was fine before this last update. Wasn't the recent firmware update supposed to fix this issue? It seems to have started one for me.

    I have the exact same problem with my Macbook Pro OS 10.8.4. What happens is: I work on the train, press cmd/alt + eject to put to sleep..pop it in my bag...get home or office... open the lid...and nothing! Battery indicator shows I have plenty of juice but it will not wake up no matter what key I press.
    The only difference between use on the train and home/office is the plugging in of peripherals and mains power. It happens sparadicially, perhaps once or twice a week and I always send a 'panic report', so somewhere there will be approx 20 reports of this fault at Apple.

  • Life of the new Retina MacBook Pro's FLASH Architecture?

    Dear all,
         How long does the new Retina MacBook Pro's flash based SSD memory last? How exactly is a "write" defined? If I'm going to be paying approximately 2K or more, I better be able to use this computer without problems for 6-8 years.
    Thanks

    You said:

    That means you expect to get 8 years out of a notebook computer. 2004 was 8 years ago. Apple was selling iBooks and PowerBooks back then running 10.3. This is at odds with your 2007 MacBook running the latest operating system. Obviously you do not expect to get 6-8 years from a notebook. You are faulting a brand-new machine with brand-new technologies for failing to meet requirements that have never before been imposed by you or anyone else.
    Your second sentence is completely unhelpful because "as long as all Apple notebooks last" depends much on the user.
    That is correct. If you are the type of person that uses your MacBook Pro for light web surfing, e-mail, newsletters, and as a receptical for Frappuccinos ®, then I can guarantee it won't last 8 years.
    If you use it only for its intended purposes, then it may or may not be able to run the lateset operating system in 2017. It may even need a hardware refresh to restore original performance. If you are lucky, it might last until 2020, but no reasonable person would expect that.

  • New Retina Macbook pro 15 Haswell system yellow screen??

    Can someone comment or verify if there is a problem with the New Retina Macbook pro 15 Haswell system screen?  Something concerning a yellow screen.  Is this a problem?

    Before you get too deeply into screen switching, you might take a look at what's probably the longest thread in the Apple Communities. Then, try the Expert calibration mode in Display Preferences>Color to see if that helps.

  • I want to transfer Logic Express 9 from my old macbook to my new retina macbook pro???

    When I try and transfer Logic Express 9 from my old macbook running mt lion to my retina macbook pro running mt. lion I get the message "You can't use this version of the applicaiton "Logic Express" with this version of OSX."
    The version of Logic express is 9.1.8. Both mac's are running 10.8.2. I don't get it.
    Can anyone help me on this?

    Hi
    How did you "transfer" Express?
    It might be better to re-install Express 9 from scratch, though without an Optical drive you would need to:
    a) Use an external Optical drive
    b) Make a disk image of the installer on another computer and then copy that image to the rMBP
    c) Make use of Apple's Remote Disk

  • Buying new retina macbook pro

    I'm getting a new retina macbook pro and I was wondering if I could ask for a Samsung make at the store before buying it. Thanks

    You could try - there are an number of people on the Retina IR thread that have asked, specifically, for Samsung displays and have been able to open up to three boxes in hopes of finding one. You may get lucky, you may not. The IR problem isn't universal although it seems more prevalent on LG monitors than Samsung - while the Samsung monitors seem to have the problem of display yellow or pink tints on the screen.
    I just wouldn't buy a Retina display right now - although I'm sure that there are tens of thousands of happy oweners, I've heard of too many problems on these boards to buy one yet.
    Just my 2¢...

  • InDesign CS4 crashes at start on new retina Macbook Pro

    Hi
    Have migrated all user information and applications from an Intel iMac running Snow Leopard (10.6.8) to a brand new retina macbook Pro on mountain Lion. Everything works apart from inDesign CS$ which crashes at start up. The crash log is here.
    Have already tried most of the suggestions I have found here, resetting preferences etc, but have not been able to uninstall CS4 as the uninstaller encounters a script error when it is run, therefore have not been able to fresh install the app.
    Has anyone any advise they can offer, thanks.

    Ther first crash report looks like the culprit may be SING (see SING Removal) but you really should do a clean install of the applications rather than a migration. Since the uninstaller is failing you can run the clean tool to do the removal: CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3

    Hi,  From about this Mac, my only HDD is full. When I have clicked and opened Storage screen when I've saw that there are 144 GB on Backups. I don't know which backup is it. and I really need help to find and delete it. I have Macbook pro running Maverick OS X.
    I have a external HDD for time machine, but this backup I didn't know yet.
    Please pleople... someone could help me?  I'm in troubles.
    Sandro

    Linc Davis,  According below:  could I delete those snapshots from MobileBackups folder?   would it solve my problem? ( if I want not my HDD 80% full)     - Thank you a lot in advance.
    Ordinarily, the best way to view your Local snapshots is via the normal Time Machine display, perquestion #15.  If for some reason that's not working, you can see them via the Finder. 
    From a Finder menubar, select Go > Go to Folder and type /Volumes in the prompt, and select theMobileBackups folder.   You'll see the same structure as for Time Machine backups on a separate volume:  a Backups.backupdb folder containing a folder for your Mac, which contains a time-stamped folder for each snapshot.  Inside each of those is a folder for each disk/partition that was backed-up, containing the same folder structure as on the original, with the contents as of the time of the backup. 
    Note that nothing in the size column is meaningful (if you Get Info on the MobileBackups folder, for example, it will show the total amount of space on the drive it's on!   It will show dashes for the Backups.backupdb folder, or any of the dated snapshot folders).
