What hardcover case should I get for new Macbook Pro 13inch?

Hello,
Hoping someone here can help me.
I got a Macbook Pro 13 w/ retina display late 2013 model earlier this month.
The hardcover Incase I got from Best Buy made for Macbook Pro 13 doesn't fit. Does anyone know of a case that will and that you'd recommend?
I'd like to get a hardcover case asap.
Thanks!

  • What specs/ upgrades should I get for a Macbook pro that I'm buying?

    I don't want to spend a ton of money but enough that the macbok pro will be really fast.
    I browse the web a lot
    I watch youtube and netflix on it
    I will need it to do college assignments
    I will need to do basic video and picture editing

    I think either of the 13" MacBook Pro models would do, with RAM upgraded to 8Gb. That would put you at $1399 for the 2.4GHz, $1699 for the 2.8GHz.
    You could save some money by getting a stock MacBook and upgrading the memory via the various third-party RAM vendors. They'll charge a lot less - OWC has an 8Gb upgrade kit for less than $50, vs Apple's $200, and you might even get a rebate for sending your old RAM to them.
    Other people may have different opinions, but that's mine. Good luck with your new Mac.

  • What kind of external drive should I get for my macbook pro for backups etc

    what kind of external drive should I get for my macbook pro for backups and storage

    Hi, i have a Mercury Elite-AL Pro from OWC, www.otherworldcomputung.com
    this is the one;
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/MEAQ7S1TB32M/
    have had this for over two years, moved around a lot with the drive, ( to date ) no problems, they have good after sales support; give them a call if you need info.
    There are a lot of drives out there as others here will let you know, there are good NAME drives but they also fail, POPULAR drives also fail, select the one you are happy with for your system and how you plan to use.
    i suggest if $ is not a problem get a big drive you will find someting to put on it and is better.
    hope this helps.

  • What antivirus protection should I purchase for my MacBook Pro? MacSecurity.app appeared on my desktop, and I downloaded that. Since then, it has said my computer is infected and pop-ups have been appearing.

    What antivirus protection should I purchase for my MacBook Pro? MacSecurity.app appeared on my desktop, and I downloaded that. Since then, it has said my computer is infected and pop-ups have been appearing.

    You've been infected by a scam trojan.  You don't need any anti-virus software on your Mac.  See the following about getting rid of the trojan.
    Trojan War
    If you discover a trojan program is running on your computer then look to the following information for assistance:
    1. A recent discussion on the Apple Support Communities: MacDefender Trojan.
    2. An excellent site devoted to Mac Malware: Macintosh Virus Guide
    3. Another site for removing MacDefende, et.al.: MAC Defender Rogue Anti-Virus analysis and Removal
    4. A new removal utility - MacDefenderKiller
    Removing strange software can be a task.  The following outlines various ways of uninstalling software:
    Uninstalling Software: The Basics
    Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash.  Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder.  Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space.  If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
    Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application.  In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
    Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder.  You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder.  You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder.  Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
    Some applications may install a Startup item or a Log In item.  Startup items are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder.  Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences.  Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab.  Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the Delete [-] button to delete it from the list.
    Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS.  Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
    If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term.  Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default.  You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, Easy Find, instead.  Download Easy Find at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
    Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder.  Usually with the same name as the program or the developer.  The item generally has a ".pkg" extension.  Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
    There are many utilities that can uninstall applications.  Note that you must have this software installed before you install software you may need to uninstall.  Uninstallers won't work if you install them after the fact.  Here is a selection:
    AppZapper
    Automaton
    Hazel
    CleanApp
    Yank
    SuperPop
    Uninstaller
    Spring Cleaning
    Look for them and others at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
    For more information visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on removing software and dealing with spyware and malware.
    After removing all the components of the software you may have to restart the computer to fully disable the software.  This will be the case when removing software that has installed a daemon.  After the daemon has been removed you need to restart the computer to stop the daemon.  Alternatively, you can kill the daemon process using the Terminal application or Activity Monitor.

  • Which model of memory upgrade should I get for my MacBook Pro early 2011 model? I now have 2 - 2GB modules.

    Which model of memory upgrade should I get for my MacBook Pro early 2011 model? I now have 2 - 2GB modules.

    Installing RAM in a 2011-2012 MacBook Pro
    There is really only one way to install RAM into a 2011-2012 MacBook Pro and while there are hundreds of DIY videos online, I just like this one, found on YouTube, by “macmixing”.
    Note that there is a difference in the RAM that should be used in 2011 and 2012 models.
    2011 models must use:
    •204-pin PC-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
    And 2012 models must use:
    •204-pin PC3-12800 (1600 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
    So here's the video:
    Remember that the 13", 15" and 17" 2011 models (early or late) and the 13" and 15" mid-2012 non-Retina models can handle 4GB, 8GB or (unofficially, but, believe me, it works) 16GB of RAM. There are, in my opinion, only two 100% Mac-compatible vendors out there: Crucial and OWC. I really can't recommend any other brands, even though it may work, as these are the only brands that I've personally used in quite a while. Also remember to stay away from any RAM that is a “value” brand - Macs are picky about RAM and often these value RAM modules just don’t work very well.
    Good luck,
    Clinton

  • What volt charger should I get for my MacBook? It is a DC to AC inverter?

    Hi, I recently purchased a inverter charger that has an outlet to charge a computer and can be used as a typical USB charger for a phone. The charger says that it has a continuous charge of 120V but a maximum of 150V. I don't understand what the problem is though because on the MacBook charger it says that it's intake is 100-240V and all of the other outputs and inputs match the specifications for the charging device. A normal phone charger that you can plug into the wall worked in this charger, so is it the computer or the charger? And also if it is the computer, what voltage amount should I get? Thank you very much!

    Your Macbook charger will specify the number of watts it uses (very fine print somewhere on the charger brick).  Your inverter MUST be able provide at least that much power, or I'm guessing your Macbook charger would have problems.

  • What monitor should I get for my Macbook Pro?

    I have a 2012 Macbook Pro
    I want to get an external monitor
    What spec monitor should I get?
    The only thing I'm worried about is getting the correct connection
    I'm assuming I want a monitor that will take DVI connection
    ALSO: would I need to buy a DVI connector - would the monitor come with this?
    Aside... are there any specific (non Apple) monitors that are widely used by everyone?
    I read another thread and there where a few names pop up like a Dell model
    Thanks
    Omar

    thanks for the reply
    i was looking at this model: http://benq.co.uk/product/monitor/gl2450hm
    i choose this one because it had a response time of 2ms
    other monitors have a response time of 5ms
    i assumed this would mean fast action graphics would display better?
    any thoughts?
    (+ this is £120 on amazon - others are roughly £140 starting price)
    ALSO... does it matter what i connect to - DVI or HDMI?
    is one better than the other?
    i already have a hdmi connector... so am assuming i will be ok with this and not bother with dvi?
    thanks

  • I have leopard and want to upgrade to lion. I have a macbook about 3 years old and wonder if I should just get a new macbook pro ($$$) instead. Is it worth the headache to upgrade to snow leopard and then lion? How does lion perform on an intel core duo 2

    I have a macbook about 3 years old running leopard. I amwondering ifitwouldbeworth the trouble to install snowleopardand then lion ($60.00) or just buy a new macbook pro ($$$$$$). How does lion perform on an intel core 2 duo processor?

    I have Lion installed on a Mini with a C2D processor. The same Mini has Snow Leopard on another partition and there is no noticeable difference in operational speed between the two OS's. But compared to my new MBPro 17" with a 2.83GHz i7, the Mini running Lion is noticeably slower. So if you can afford anew MBPro, then I would get it because you will probably be unhappy with the performance of Lion on the older MBPro. The other benefit of getting a new MBPro with Lion is that if you have any Power PC applications currently on the old MBPro, which will not operate in Lion, then you still have the ability to use them. Many users got stung by upgrading to Lion, only to find they could no longer use the older PPC applications.

  • What upgrades should I get for my MacBook pro for video editing?, What upgrades should I get for my MacBook pro for video editing?

    Hi,
    i am a student and I will use my MacBook pro to edit my movies, I will go to a film school and I think the preview of my previous works has to be professionally done. But I don't know what upgrades should I get to make the editing smooth, and have enough storage.

    as an hobbyist on a shoestring budget, but with the head in the sky, based on my own experience:
    8GB Ram is ok, 16GB is nice
    most important, aside 'skills': …
    <voice of Steve Balmer> ext HDD, ext HDD, ext HDD, ext HDD!!!
    I'm handling here 4k material on a MacMini, which doesn't even have a dedicated GPU. In Multicam.
    Distribute your materials on several hard drives, make a plan first, before editing, what & where, you get instantly messy and lost without a plan.
    What mentioned before: back ups! I'm not shy using a 99€ Raid0 (=two 2.5" drives + Disk Utility's feature, to create 'software raids' ) - Raid0 are NoGo for pros, 'cause it doubles the chance to 'crash' - no prob for me, having my backups - inconvenient to reload everything - but I'm no News Room
    For professional 'look' care for the other stuff :
    tripod with 'fluid head', lights, more lights, ND filters set, ext. microphone(s) at last a shotgun and a lav, ext audio recorder (I'm abusing my ol' iPhone4 and a tiny box called iRig, which offer XLR connector), did I mention lights? , a good bag and a waterproof, lockable aluminium box, soft boxes for light, maybe a shoulder rig (starting at 80€), 200sq ft of some green cloth for green screening (if your school doesn't offer a 'studio') FCPX does marvel with even really bad lighted green screens, those handy foldable 'brighteners'/reflectors, to bounce light ('Rembrandt lightning') … finally tons of odds and ends, starting with gaffer tape, ending with SDcards ...
    And DO things, try things, play with your stuff, make experiments just for the trash bin!
    Enjoy your film school (I'm envy… )

  • What display should I get for my macbook pro?

    Hey Guys. I think this is in the correct section.
    So I have a Macbook Pro (specs at the bottom) and I am looking to add an external monitor to use as a second monitor and at other times a screen for my playstation. I have never had a monitor before so not sure how big? What resolution? What ppi? HD, UHD, 4K? Someone said something about refresh rate. I have no idea what that is. None of this stuff I know.
    Obviously I want the best screen I can have and I would connect my Macbook to it by HDMI using a Thunderbolt to HDMI converter and connect my ps3 to it by HDMI.
    What is the highest resolution a HDMI/Thunderbolt can handle?
    What screen should I get?
    Also I connected it up to my TV once and if I put my mouse at the bottom of the screen and then moved it onto my macbook screen it disapeared and didn't appear again until I moved it up and I don't want this problem
    How can i solve this?
    All help is very much appreciated.
    Thanks.      Miles.

  • What kind of monitor should I get for my Macbook Pro Retina?

    I bought a Macbook Pro Retina to replace my old 2007 Macbook. When I hook my Retina up to my Acer 1080p LED Monitor, it does not display in full quality. I assume this is due to the size of the graphics card inside the laptop. My old macbook displayed a perfect picture on this same monitor.
    I want to buy a new monitor that can display my Retina in full quality, but I don't want to break the bank to get a Thunderbolt Display. Any suggestions on a monitor I can get?

    Try adjusting manually the resolution on the external monitor. You may have to degrade slightly the resolution on the built in monitor when you do this. I have been told that the Mac automatically tries to optimize the picture quality on the retina display at the expense of the resolution on the external monitor. You may have to "redistribute" manually the available resolution to favor more the external display.

  • Should I get a new Macbook pro?

    Hey there,
    I have had my white Macbook for over three years now. First of all, it runs really sluggish most times now. I mean, I'm still able to use it, however, it is significantly slower than when I first got it. The disc drive no longer works, and hasn't worked for about a year now. Instead of spending 200ish dollars to get it fixed, I just bought an external one. The Macbook pro now is really new and having been recently approved for the barclaycard, I would be able to finance it over the next twelve months. I have heard people say that right now is the perfect time to buy a Macbook pro and that it should last me at least the next six years. Should I just tough it out and wait until my current Macbook really is driven into the ground, or should I take advantage of my current student discount and the prime time to buy a Macbook pro?
    I am really leaning towards getting it, but still debating.
    Thanks!

    That is a really good question. The difference in performance will be huge for you, but on the other hand the new Pro's are buggy right now (heat, 10.6.7 update glitches, freezes,). Of course common sense tells us that new iteration bugs happen to the minority - most people will be happy with their new machines. Read the posts here about new machine issues and see if you are up to the challenge. I'm seeing a lot of people solving their problems, but as a rule: if you wait a while after a major upgrade you can avoid issues completely.
    Finally - consider the Apple Refurbished page. Good deals right now.

  • What virus protection should i download for my macbook pro

    i just got my macbook pro and want to know what virus protection program should i download for free

    This comment applies to malicious software ("malware") that's installed unwittingly by the victim of a network attack. It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an attacker who has hands-on access to the victim's computer. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. If you have reason to suspect that you're the target of such an attack, you need expert help.
    All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files. The recognition database is automatically updated once a day; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders. In most cases, there’s no benefit from any other automated protection against malware.
    Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there is another layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications that are downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Applications certified in this way haven't actually been tested by Apple (unless they come from the Mac App Store), but you can be sure that they haven't been modified by anyone other than the developer, and his identity is known, so he could be held responsible if he knowingly released malware. For most practical purposes, applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed can be considered safe. Note, however, that there are some caveats concerning Gatekeeper:
    It doesn't apply to software that comes packaged as an installer. Treat all third-party installers with caution.
    It can be disabled or overridden by the user.
    It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets (see below.)
    It only applies to applications downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
    For more information about Gatekeeper, see this Apple Support article.
    Notwithstanding the above, the most effective defense against malware attacks is your own intelligence. All known malware on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. If you're smarter than the malware attacker thinks you are, you won't be duped. That means, primarily, that you never install software from an untrustworthy source. How do you know a source is untrustworthy?
    Any website that prompts you to install a “codec,” “plug-in,” or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one, is untrustworthy.
    A web operator who tells you that you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, or that you have won a prize in a contest you never entered, is trying to commit a crime with you as the victim. [Some reputable websites did legitimately warn users who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.]
    “Cracked” copies of commercial software downloaded from a bittorrent are likely to be infected.
    Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be downloaded directly from the developer’s website. No intermediary is acceptable.
    Java on the network (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related) is always a potential weak spot in the security of any operating system. If Java is not installed, don't install it unless you really need it. If it is installed, you should disable it (not JavaScript) in your web browsers. Few websites have Java content nowadays, so you won’t be missing much. This setting is mandatory in OS X 10.5.8 or earlier, because Java in those obsolete versions has known security flaws that make it unsafe to use on the Internet. The flaws will never be fixed. Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java can never be fully trusted, even if no vulnerabilities are publicly known at the moment.
    Follow these guidelines, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can reasonably be.
    Never install any commercial "anti-virus" products for the Mac, as they all do more harm than good. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use the free software ClamXav — nothing else.
