Updating the MacBook pro line: how does Apple usually do it?

Hi everyone, I'm planning to buy a MacBook pro and I need your help.
I was wondering if a new pro could be presented in the next months (due to the passage to face time in all Mac products). My questions: has every MacBook updates been presented during a public apple event?
I mean: could apple decide to update the pro line simply modifying it on the store, or it usually does it only organizing a public event? My memory is not so good so I ask if you remember what is the habit in this case, considering that the pro line has been updated many times but I don't remember if presented in a public event or not.

  • When is Apple updating the MacBook Pro?

    Let me start out by saying I know this is not an actual technical issue so I apologize for posting this question on this type of server, I just didn't know where else to ask so thank you to whoever can help.
    I love Apple products and think they just work so amazingly and want to buy my first MacBook Pro. I am a college student and don't have a lot of money to spend on a new computer. I understand that MacBook Pros have recently been upgraded and I am planning on getting the cheaper 15 inch model, however, my friend told me that he heard Apple is planning on upgrading the MacBook Pro's by the end of the summer. I know that technology moves fast and things get outdated quickly but I would rather not buy one now only to find out that if I waited a month or two I could have gotten a much nicer version of the computer.
    If anybody knows what the deal is as far as when the next line of MacBook Pros are supposed to come out I would appreciate it very much.
    Thanks

    The instant Apple releases a new line of machines, they're already planning the next release.  They don't tell anyone when the next release will be...  it's like an extra special surprise to everyone!    So, your best bet is to buy what you need when you need it, and don't spend too much time worrying about what's coming next.
    Since you're buying for college, it will probably be best for you to wait for Apple's inevitable back to school deal... which, in the past, has involved buying a Mac at the educational price and getting an iPod for free (with a rebate).  I got my iPod Touch that way, back when I was still teaching.  $250 iPod, totally free!

  • Updated the macbook pro and lost all my documents!!

    I can't find any of my files and documents!!! Are they still on here, how do I recover them??!!
    PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!
    ALL MY ESSAYS ARE GONE

    More detail please, what did you update, the entire operating system upgraded from a earlier verison, (like 10.6 to 10.8) or did you perform a Software Update, or wiped your drive and updated or what?
    If you can't figure it out, then stop what your doing, shutdown and seek the local services of a PC/Mac tech for data recovery options.
    Next time make backups of your data off the machine.

  • Should I buy a MacBook Pro now (Jan 2012) considering that a refresh of the MacBook Pro line is imminent? I will be buying the most basic 13 inch MBP and its taken me quite sometime to save up (almost a year!)

    I'm not very well off and although I love MacBooks they aren't cheap either, I've been saving up for a long time now and I don't want to regret it if nvidia or ati graphic cards make an appearance in the new macbook pro 13 basics. Advise please!

    While you are waiting for the new models to come out you could of been using the one you bought tomorrow all that time.
    When Dell, HP, Toshiba, Sony, Apple, Whoever comes out with new models they will have different thing in them. Faster lower powered CPUs better graphic faster hard drives or SSDs more memory and maybe a better operating system.
    So why not wait 1-2-3-4 years. By then the thing may even wash your back and feet for you.
    And they wiil be selling at a premium. There is no such thing as a free lunch.

  • Can i make an appointment for update the macbook pro

    Hi I use to have a macbook I brought from China that when i came to US i want to instal for new edition in the store, dose i have pay any fee for that? if not, i want to make an appointment for instal it. thanks.

    You can buy the upgrade in the store using their wireless network (normal upgrade fee would apply--$19.99 US). I'm not sure if you could use a wired connection.
    Using the wireless would not require an appointment, but you could make one with the Genius bar to have them help you.
    What model MacBook is it? Here are the minimum requirements:

  • I can't log in on icould but got latest update on macbook pro. How come?

    I can't log in on icould , it saids that my Apple ID is not avalible but I can log in on itunes and app store. got latest uppdate!
    Help please..

    If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the phone by tapping on the id at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app and then log back in with the updated version and see if that then shows when trying to download updates.
    If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.

  • What is the best I7 Intel processor to get on the Macbook Pro 15"?  Are these processors 2nd generation processors?  Does it matter?  Should I wait until - when? - for 2nd generation processors to be used?  Does the 2.5 Mh processor make a difference?

    I'm about to order a MacBook Pro 15".  I wonder if the I7 processors are 2nd generation or if it matters.  Also, is there significant benefit to getting the 2.4 or 2.5 Ghz processor over the 2.2?  I'm not a gamer or graphics manipulator, but I do look at (not edit) a lot of video for my work, and I typically multi-task, having many applications and internet windows open at once. Also, I will be running Windows for work access and applications.  Of course, I have little idea what makes a difference in my use experience, except I plan to get max RAM and probably the fastest hard drive.  Any advice welcome.

    Steve,
    I appreciate your focus on assistance, and thank you for your help.  Couple of follow up questions:  What you said about the new specs suggests that the MacBook Pro line has recently been upgraded with, what, the 2nd gen Intel chips, some other incremental improvements?  So maybe it has paid off to crawl along with my old mac to get the latest tech.  For these kinds of upgrades, I guess Apple doesn't advertise that they have the latest chips (I've seen PC ads touting the 2nd gen chips, and checked out the Intel site, so that's how I became aware) and all?
    I'm planning to enjoy this computer for quite some years.  Of course I will get the 3 yr extended warranty.  And I was planning to get the hi res antiglare screen: that seems to be the best of the options.  It looks like one can now get a faster 750 Gb fast drive, instead of having to settle for 500 in the faster version.  The cost does add up, but my feeling was to go for broke and get the best machine I can.  So does getting the faster cpu and hd and max ram (perhaps buying third party) and all make sense, assuming I can afford it when I add everything up, or is it like a moderately good guitar player getting a top of the line guitar he can't really play well enough to warrant it?  (I remember a story about a student under Segovia arriving with a very very expensive guitar when he was still early in the learning process; it may be apocryphal, but story goes that Segovia took the guitar from the student and smashed it to smithereens.  I assume that was not just because the student mistook the instrument for skill in playing it, but perhaps also because he would be too careful with such an expensive instrument, and fail to master it.  Maybe not a perfect analogy, but I could be mislead by seeking the "best barn burner on the block" when what I need is what will work fine for my purposes.) So I think your original response was probably right on in terms of what will actually be of use to me.
    Thanks again,
    David

  • Will Apple update their MacBook Pro lineup at WWDC 2013?

    I am planning to buy a new Macbook Pro and I wondering whether Apple will update their lineup at the WWDC 2013? Will the new Macbooks have the new Haswell Processers?
    Also, I need to decide between the Macbook Pro 13 inch and 15 inch. Which one is better for running heavy apps like Photoshop/Lightroom/Aperture?

    No one knows when or if Apple is going to upgrade the MacBook Pro line this year.
    If you need a computer now, for heavy graphics use, you'd be best served with either the 15" Retina or non-Retina. My choice would be the non-Retina, since you can upgrade the RAM and hard drive, replacing it with either a larger capacity, faster drive and up to 16GB of RAM. The 15" models also have discrete graphics processors, available with up to 1GB of memory: thus they are better machines for heavy graphics use.
    Good luck,
    Clinton

  • I have updated my Macbook Pro from 10.7.5 to 10.9.1 and it keeps on restarting after upgrade. Please help me fix this issue.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Update info MacBook Pro 17?

    Does anyone know when Apple will update the MacBook Pro 17? I'm looking to get one soon & max the RAM (2GB) but I'm hoping they'll up this to 4GB. I'll be running Aperture & Photoshop so 2GBs is hardly enough. Also, anyone have news as to the next update for Aperture? Thanks.

    Well it's been out for 5 weeks now, so anyone's guess is good as to when they will update.
    As for the 4gb, I don't think that this is a hardware limitation as much as an expectation that as 2gb DDR2 Sodimms are currently more than $1500 no-one is going to fit them. I don't know this for certain, but I can't see any good reason why the 17mbp wouldn't be able to cope with 4gb.
    Best of luck.

  • Why I chose the MacBook over the MacBook Pro

    This year I had a choice between the MacBook and MacBook Pro and pricing aside, chose the MacBook instead. Like many who have grappled with this decision I thought I'd share my thoughts on why I ultimately went with a MacBook:
    1. Nearly identical processing power between the two. Most of the time larger means better/faster, but apple has nearly identical hardware so in this case larger just means larger.
    2. I don't play many games or require a dedicated graphics card. A lot of people will say the graphics card on the MacBook Pro is far better, and in some sense it is, but the MacBook still has a decent card and the changes for someone not doing a ton of video work are non-existence. Plus, as I tell people who really want to play a lot of games, you should get a cheap pc desktop since the cards are worlds better than anything Apple sells.
    3. Larger (better?) keyboard. I contend the keyboard is better although many would argue. Either way you see it the keyboard is larger and it is ridiculous that a 13" laptop has a larger keyboard than a 15" and 17". Apple really needs to update the casing for keyboards on the MacBook Pro's that actually use the space given. This was a big point for me since I cant stand the cramp keyboard of the MacBook Pro.
    4. Lighter/Compact. I must say small size means you can take it almost anywhere easily. I can't imagine pulling out a 17" MacBook Pro on an airplane.
    5. Harddrive swap and casing. While many are attached to the titanium design of the MacBook Pro (not me) the MacBook casing is amazing in its ability to swap in new drives and memory. This is another advantage I can't imagine why apple hasn't added to the other models.
    6. Price. Now, originally I did say I chose them pricing aside, and I did. I could have gotten either, but at the end of the day its nice to know I saved $1000 and I travel comfortably knowing that if someone steals my laptop on a trip or it breaks, I won't have to sell a lung to get a new one.
    I think if Apple finally updates the MacBook Pro casing with some of the features of the MacBook and makes a real difference in hardware between the processors I might have changed my mine, but I'm am so glad I purchased the smaller more compact MacBook than its counterpart the MacBook Pro.

    "I think if Apple finally updates the MacBook Pro casing with some of the features of the MacBook and makes a real difference in hardware between the processors I might have changed my mine, but I'm am so glad I purchased the smaller more compact MacBook than its counterpart the MacBook Pro."
    I like the casing on the MacBook better too and wish the MBP had that same rugged one. The aluminum, or whatever they use on the MBP has always seemed sort of frail to me, with wobbly lid closings and poor fits of the battery case, etc.
    But I did go for the MBP. The main point for me? The higher screen resolution. I would have had a resolution DROP going for the MB and instead I got a resolution INCREASE going to the MBP.
    In fact, the screen resolution of the MBP is the same as that on my 20" iMac G5!
    I guess different things are different priority for different users.

  • Link Light on the MacBook Pro ?

    Hi,
    Is there a link light on the Ethernet port on the MacBook Pro ? It looks pretty dark to me ;-(

    You might want to ask this in the MacBook Pro forums…

    … as this is the Mac Pro, the big desktop, forums.

  • How does Apple TV sort photos from Aperture?

    I have arranged a set of photos in Aperture in a Project. 
    When I go to show these on the Apple TV, they appear randomly and not in the order that I have them in the Aperture Project.
    How does Apple TV sort the photos that it reads from my Aperture project?
    If I understand how it handles this, I can adjust the metadata to insure it shows as I want.
    I look forward to hearing back from folks about how this works.
    Thanks.

    I figured it out.  It is by the date and time code on the picture.

    try disabling email scanning for incoming mail.
    One of the last things that occurs is the mail server and Thunderbird sign off on "where we are up to" and Thunderbird stores this state information in the popstate.dat file in your profile (there is one in each POP mail account folder). If the anti virus, or you for that matter, end the conversation a few seconds early that hand off does not occur and the popstate is not stored.

    how do i update my macbook pro from 10.5.8 to the latest software?

    First you have to purchase Snow Leopard, 10.6, from the Apple on-line store for $20.  Install and on-line software update from the disk version to the last of the line, 10.6.8.
    Then determine if you can go to Mountain Lion, http://www.apple.com/osx/specs and if you can go to the App Store and purchase for $20 the download of 10.8.3.
    If you cannot go to ML, see if you can go to Lion, 10.7.5, do you have an Intel Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor at least 2 GB ram and 7 GB free hard drive space.  If so you can purchase a download code for Lion from 1-800-MY-APPLE for $20.
    If you can use Mountain Lion, skip the Lion step and go directly to ML.
