Scheda logica macbook pro 2011

Salve, come ho potuto constatare sul web quello del problema della logic board sui mbp early 2011 non è di natura casuale.
Visti i prezzi proibitivi dell'Apple Store, circa 500 euro ed il programma di sostituzione promosso dalla Apple per lo stesso problema sui mbp 2010, non sarebbe il caso di "farci sentire" affinchè Apple lo riconosca come problema di fabbricazione e quindi attivi un programma di sostituzione?

Salve,
purtroppo anch'io, come molti pare, possiedo un mbp early2011 con problemi alla gpu. Il centro assistenza autorizzato di zona mi ha preventivato più di 600 euro per la sostituzione della scheda logica.
Sottolineo oltretutto che questa è la seconda volta che tale componente si guasta: già 7 mesi dopo l'acquisto, il computer ha iniziato a presentare problemi ed è stata sostituita la prima scheda logica.
Tuttavia mi pare palese che il problema sia dovuto ad un difetto d'origine, dal momento che è sempre il medesimo componente a guastarsi; è altrettanto palese che chiedere 600 euro per sostituire una scheda con una che potenzialmente presenta lo stesso vizio, sia alquanto scorretto.
Credo anch'io sia il caso di farsi sentire, anche perchè in casi del tutto analoghi Apple ha riconosciuto il difetto e si è adoperata per porre rimedio, perlomeno non a spese del consumatore. Non vedo perchè in questo caso debba ignorare il problema.
Per tentare di rendere Apple più consapevole della questione (qualora ancora non lo fosse...) si può cominciare lasciando un feedback qui:https://www.apple.com/feedback/macbookpro.html
Oltre alla petizione, vi è uno studio legale negli USA che sta valutando il fenomeno e raccogliendo dati, è possibile contribuire compilando questo questionario: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/RFMRTTS

mi chiedo se la apple farà qualcosa per dimostrarci che è un marchio su cui si può ancora contare
Spero che ci diano una risposta al più presto

Is it possible to add a new graphics card to my macbook pro 2011 13"

Is it possible to add a new graphics card to my macbook pro 2011 13"?

Hi W,
Sorry, but no. It's soldered onto the logic board.

Macbook Pro 2011 - Apple It's time

Hi,
So I'm the owner of a new second-hand 17" Macbook, for years I've dreamed of getting one of these and today was finally the day it happened. Specs are
Macbook Pro 2011 Late
i7 2.4Ghz
6770m
8gb RAM
At first the laptop booted up fine so I decided to do what any new proud macbook owner would do, show it of at work. During the course of the day I experienced intermittent freezing issues and eventually a blue screen of death. I thought to myself that I must of brought a dud and immediately went to contact the person I brought it of for a refund. Being a genuine trader he was more than happy to oblige and give me a full refund. Frustratingly this macbook had already grown on me enough to the point where I was determined to research into solution. Initially I suspected a HDD fault so I went to attempt a apple internet recovery, all that solved was my blue screen of death and changed it to a grey screen of death. Digging deeper it was clear from countless others in my situation that the issue was being caused by the GPU.
Now I'm no apple genius but I have enough of a computer technical background to know when something has not been done right. Now clearly apple has done wrong in the manufacturing process of GPU soldering and thermal paste application. This issue is nowhere relevant to software except for the point in which the system switches from the integrated to the faulty discrete GPU like it's suppose to in high-intensive tasks. Having this macbook for only a day and some determined researching its pretty simple to join the dots. The soldering process and material they used was doomed to fail from the start, eventually all 2011 models with discrete GPU's will burn out, it just depends on how well their owners have taken care of them. In regards to the thermal paste application you will be able to see from my images the kind of care and pride apples has undertaken in applying it. There was more around the CPU & GPU than there was on itself, that's like having a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with most of the peanut butter and jelly smeared around the plate. Considering this laptop would of cost close to 4500NZ back in the day I can't imagine what other original 2011 Macbook owners are feeling.
What makes it worse is that apple techies you go to will say a full logic board replacement will be needed from your own pocket when your macbook was already doomed, isn't that a way to rub further salt into the wounds Apple. Opening up my macbook it was obvious to see that the logic board inside was not the original and sometime during it's lifetime it too had a full logic board replacement. However I can't say if it was for the same reasons. Regardless it's obvious that replacing the logic board does not solve the issue and wastes everybody's time and money.
Apple, these macs require two things.
-A solder repair for the GPU
-A re-application of thermal paste
It's really not that much to ask considering the worth of these laptops, also wouldn't you rather have these leaving a legacy of the ultimate desktop replacement than apples shameful ticking time bomb?
I'm typing this of the very macbook having these issues so for anyone who wants a temporary fix please refer to the free gfxCardStatus software which allows you to force integrated graphics only. For now it's stable but dreadfully hinders the potential this beast was made for.

In hopes that apple does not remove this post.

There is excessive swapping of data between physical memory and virtual memory.
That can happen for two reasons:
You have a long-running process with a memory leak (i.e., a bug), or
You don't have enough memory installed for your usage pattern.
Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
In the Activity Monitor application, select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If you don't see that column, select
View ▹ Columns ▹ Real Memory
from the menu bar.
If one process (excluding "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more real memory over time without ever releasing it. Here is an example of how it's done.
The process named "Safari Web Content" renders web pages for Safari and other applications. It uses a lot of memory and may leak if certain Safari extensions or third-party web plugins are installed. Consider it a prime suspect.
If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
The next suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command:
sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details.

Late Macbook Pro 2011 won't charge via MagSafe adapter.

My friends Macbook Pro 2011 same as mine wont charge the battery via MagSafe adapter. The battery is good and the adapter also, ive checked them on my Mac. The problem is that on her Mac it won't charge. I've change the MagSafe adapter on her computer and it didn't work still no charge, no green light on the L shaped adapter. Can it be the Logic Board?

Resetting SMC could solve the problem.

Macbook Pro 2011 clamshell mode broken by latest software update?

After installing the latest MacBook Pro software update and EFI update through Software Update in the evening May 4, I am unable to enter clamshell mode any more. It used to work before. After waking up in the clamshell mode, the machine promptly goes back to sleep. On subsequent attempts to wake up the system, the laptop itself appears to wake up (at least the sleep light stops blinking) but the display does not even wake up. I can still work with external dsisplay with the lid open but this is highly annoying. I have reset the PRAM with no effect. The machine is a 2011 MBP, 15" inch, 2.2 GHz quad i7. Keyboard and mouse are wireless Microsoft desktop but the problem is also present with wired peripherals.
Does anyone else see this problem after installing the latest patch?

Okay, I'll add my frustration here as well.
I've had this problem too, and more noticable since the 1.4 update.
I posted a thread similar to this here.
But I'll just copy over what my main problem was...
Whenever I plug my computer into my Cinema Display (with the computer closed) it won't wake up fully. The status light will come on, any external hard drives will spin up, but the display won't turn on and the computer will go back to sleep.
I have to restart the computer manually to get it to work normally, and if I disconnect it while it's between the sleep and wake mode and try to open it, the backlight will come on but the screen will remain black, causing me to have to force restart it.
This is in addition to my first problem with the backlit keyboard not coming on automatically after sleep, which was temporarily fixed by resetting the SMC, but it goes back to the problem after a week or so.
What could be causing either of these problems? Could it have something to do with BootCamp since I have it installed, or is there a defect?
I would bring it back to Apple, but there's a small dent in the front right corner, and I'm afraid they would deny any problem I have.
I took my MacBook Pro (2011, i7 2.2, 17") into the Apple Store on Monday, and after about an hour of attempting to replicate the problem with a different monitor, there was only one time where there was any sort of problem.
The employee told me to see if there will be a fix, or otherwise they will replace the logic board for me.
One thing I'd like to add as a note...
It seems that the problem is more prominent when I have my computer with everything on it as usual. As in, before I took it to the Apple Store I performed a clean install of OS X, and that may be related to how bad the problem is, any opinions?
I had attempted at reinstalling OS X from a Time Machine Backup, but the problems continued shortly after completetion. In addition to this, I clean installed OS X, and manually reloaded my applications and media, hoping that the problem had stemmed from some kind of broken file system that could be repaired by a new install.
But no matter how I do it, the problem comes back despite the method. It is really something I want fixed, as I pretty much only use it in clamshell mode when home...

Can i connect my cintiq 12wx to my Macbook pro 2011 through the thunderbolt using the mini display port to vga adaptor?

I just bought my cintiq 12wx and was wonderding if i can connect it to my macbook pro 2011 through the thurderbolt using a mini displayport to vga adaptor? Please help!

Yes, it should work with a mini-displayport to VGA adapter. Since a 12wx also can take DVI you could use a mini-displayport to DVI adapter instead. Why go analog when you can keep it in digital!
I guess the usb is for the pen.

What cable do I need to buy to connect my Macbook Pro (2011) to a VGA screen? I tried the "Mini DisplayPort to VGA", but apparently it doesnt fit the 2011 Pro version...

As the topic says,
What cable do I need to buy to connect my Macbook Pro (2011) to a VGA screen? I tried the "Mini DisplayPort to VGA", but apparently it doesnt fit the 2011 Pro version...
Help me out please.

Yes ... minidisplay
But what I do not like in that picture (my personal view, others may think differently), is that there is much plastic around the connectors where the cable must fit. You may ot may not be able to get the cable to *fully seat* with the adapter.
Other adapters (http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0334087, yes I know this is a DVI) hve no plastic barriers to connections.

Hello
I have a macbook pro 2011 13" that came with OS Lion (integrated not on a disk). I recently bought OS Mountain Lion of the app store and it is working fine. However I was a bit dissapointed in the battery so I decided to try and downgrade and completely failed, I froze the computer and when I restarted it it did not work. I went into recovery system and erased my disk and all that and went to re-download my OS. I was expecting to get the option to re-download Lion but instead I could only re-download Mountain Lion.
My question is since my computer originally came with Lion can I reset my computer so I get OS Lion back instead of OS Mountain Lion?
Thanks for any help. Any answer will be appreciated even if it is saying it is not possible.

Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Erase the hard drive:
    1.    Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    2.    After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    3.    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
    4.    Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Install button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Kappy, a pretty wonderful and very knowledgeable man, has tip for that which I have copied and pasted above

Macbook Pro 2011 charging behaving weird. Charges and stops repeatedly and takes very long. Help?

So a few weeks ago my MacBook Pro 2011 started having charging problems. I would use it normally. Then plug it in to charge anywhere between 5-20 percent like I've been doing for the past year that I've had it (since August 2011). Anyway, what happens now is that it charges but extremely slowly - at least 4 hours to fully charge as opposed to the 1 1/2 to 2 hours that it used to take. Also, it seems to be draining a lot quicker than it used to while only browsing the internet. Furthermore, while charging, the battery meter goes from the percent its charged to to "not charging" back and forth. What's going on? Is there a problem with my battery, my computer, or the magsafe charger? [please refer to the pictures below to get a better understanding of my problem - these pictures were taken over a 2 hour time period - a time period that usually is enough to charge my computer] - if you'll notice, in the first two pictures, the percent barely went up by 10 in a half hour period:

Thank you,

try doing a SMC RESET and see if that sorts it out for you.
if doesn't work - better take it to Apple and have them look at it before something else goes wrong...
good luck - hope you get it sorted out..

How can I setup my thunderbold display to work as my primary display? I would like to have my macbook pro 2011 as my second display. thanks

I have and Macbook pro 2011 february. I have installed Lion with the lastest update. I would like to use my thunderbold display as my primary display. The same way when I close my MB Pro 2011, but I wish to use my Macbook pro display as my secondary display.
thanks

If your Mac has got Mini DisplayPort, purchase a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter and a HDMI cable. You won't have to change any setting, and image will show on your TV after connecting it to your MacBook Pro. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

Macbook Pro 2011 running very slowly after upgrading to Mavericks

I am in deep trouble with my wife so any help would be gratefully accepted.
Shortly after Mavericks became available I upgraded my wife's Macbook Pro 2011 to use the new OS version. Ever since then, the Macbook has been running noticeably slowly. In particular, Mail is almost unusuable taking minutes to open and showing long delays while moving around messages, folders, etc. Excel and Word are also much slower, Safari is slow, in fact just about everything is grinding.
Any ideas on what can I can do to improve things and apease my unhappy wife would be much appreciated.
I have attached the Etrecheck output FYI
Thanks

How to reformat a Macbook pro 2011 hard drive?

Hello,
How do you reformat a MacBook Pro (OS X 10.7.3) 2011s Hard drive? I already backed up all the files I wanted to save. But since I have the new Macbook pro 2011 (only a few months since I got it) it didn't come with an installation disc, but instead already came with all the applications. I'm wondering how to reformat the hard drive so it wipes out everything and I can start fresh and what would happen to all the applications?

Well Lion has a Lion Recovery Partition on the drive you can access by holding command r and booting, there you can erase the Lion OS X partition completely (all files and programs) and reinstall Lion or simply reinstall Lion if there is a issue with it (no programs or files are touched in this second procedure)
Lion is downloaded from apple's servers, you need AppleID and a fast reliable internet connection with no bandwidth caps limiting you.
https://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
If you want to replace the drive, there is software called Carbon Copy Cloner than can clone both the Lion OS X Partition and the Lion Recovery Partition to a external drive intact (excpet what's in the Trash, no Filevualt, no bootcamp, use free Winclone for that)
Hold the option key and you can boot from the external drive and format and clone everything to the new internal drive. TimeMachine of 10.7.2 and later can be booted from it's Lion Recovery Parttion as well just to restore only, cloning is better process because it gives full access to everything like before on the internal drive.
http://www.bombich.com/index.html
Some newer Mac's have Lion Internet recovery built in where the firmware will install the Lion Recovery/OS back onto a completely blank/new hard drive.

I am running my first backup on Time Machine using a Seagate external hard drive with a thunderbolt adapter and cable. I have a MacBook Pro 2011. It is backing up 11GB, and is telling me it will take approx two days. Is this normal?
