What is the defaults refresh rate of the Mac book pro 15inch? and how can I change it?

I don't believe there is a refresh rate for LCD or LED monitors. Refresh rate is something that is used for old style CRTs if i'm not mistaken.

HT1338 anyone know what causes the mac book pro to have slow startup ?

takes a longtime for my mac book pro to start up any ideas ? already tried clearing cookies and basics

First, make sure you have adequate backups. If your hard disk is failing this could be a sign. It can be replaced if necessary, but a backup strategy is recommended whether or not you are experiencing problems.
Read: OS X Mountain Lion: If your Mac runs slowly. The article is very cursory, but be sure to read through to the end. Unfortunately the link there is broken, so use this one: Disk Utility. To do this you must start your Mac from the Recovery System or Internet Recovery.
Rather than ask a dozen questions for more details about your system consider the following:
Apple Support Communities contributor etresoft wrote a very useful app to quickly gather certain system information that may help point to a cause of this problem. Go to his website, download and run EtreCheck:

What is the best external hard drive for the MAC Book Pro with Retina?

What is the best external hard drive for the MAC Book Pro with Retina?
I was looking at WD MY PASSPORT FOR MAC and Toshiba. I want something that will work best with time capsule! Suggestions on the best external hard drive would be greatly appreciated!!!

A Time Machine backup drive should be substantially larger than the system drive. If you have a 128 or 256 GB SSD then a 1 TB drive will suffice. If you have a 512 GB SSD then a 2 TB drive will suffice. As leroydouglas indicated any brand other than WD will do.
For 1 TB drives PlotinusVeritas gives some great suggestions here:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5602141?tstart=0
A 2 TB drive sold by Apple:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/H9378ZM/A/lacie-2tb-usb-30-porsche-design-p923 3-desktop-hard-drive
$130
A 2 TB drive just as good for only $92.

The mac book pro cannot detect the internal speaker. What's the possible causes? and how to fix it?

I've connect the mac book pro to my LED TV with the headphone port as my audio output. After I disconnect it, the internal speaker did not work and the mac could not detect it from the system preference. What is the problem? Is it because of the hardware or software problem? Please help.

Please detail all you have done to resolve your issue. Need this information so that the users can avoid the "been there, done that" scenario type responses. This is to avoid repeating the troubleshooting you may have already tried. Thank you.

Hi, I'm considering gettting a mac book pro. I've been a pc user. I want to know anyone's opinion on the mac book pro compared to a pc.

I'm considering buying a mac book pro. I want a few opinions about the mac book pro compared to a pc. I've been a pc user. How do you rate the mac compared to a pc?

With Mac's, there are less software and hardware choices, Apple almost demands you upgrade the operating system (paid) annually now, then inflicts all sorts of unexpected UI changes etc., and breaks your third party software/hardware.
With Windows you might have malware, but on Mac's the pain comes with constant OS X upgrades and bricking of third party software, it's like Apple has no stability.
DRM is becoming standard issue, you can't install OS X on your own via the disks, it has to be downloaded from Apple now.
OS X is turning into iOS that's all controlling, all Apps are copy protected, open source software is not allowed.
Hardware quality is mixed now, 13" and below have cheap low res glossy screens like any other $400 Walmart PC, the 15" and up high res anti-glare are very nice models.
OS X is just a paint job on hardware with Apple "oh a new OS!", it's not a stable long term operating system in the sense that Windows versions are which you can set it up, make a backup and go on nearly forever.
At least with Windows one can reinstall the OS and get updates for 10+ years, all one has to do is buy quality long lasting hardware from a huge choice of vendors.
So value wise, hardware and software choice, 3D gaming, business world, standardization etc., Windows 7 is pretty sweet now. Vista and XP of course were terrible.
Apple's OS X Lion is terrible, it's the beginning of the end, a transition to locked down iOS X on Mac's and Apple's exit from the "computing" market into something only for consumers only really based on the closed iOS concept. They are really going overboard on this, pushing the App Store in your face when you do searches and everything.
The "candy like" OS X interface gets kind of tiring, it used to be we could avoid a lot of it, but now Apple is pressing it more into one's faces. So forget having a professional or mature look about OS X anymore.
The App Store is like something made and to appeal to children and Toy Story cartoon watchers, not appealing to mature serious people.
OS X is pretty and all, the high quality screens of Mac's make OS X look nice and attractive, but I also run Windows 7 on my Mac and it looks just as great, Windows also has a more mature looking UI.
All in all there is really no advantage to getting a Mac over a PC anymore, since with Win 7 Microsoft provides the free Security Essentials and System Restore to make disks and images to restore one's own machine themselves easy as pie.
I'm a long time Mac user, from day one, because Mac's were innovative and more secure than Windows, however Apple has tarnished that image when I found out they were not issuing security updates for older OS X versions and not fast enough for Java, (they control) which resulted in a 600,000 botnet of Mac's called Flashflake.
Sure finally Apple issued a security update for 10.5 users, but on Intel processors only, not the zillions still on PowerPC processor Mac's.
Apple is so much about change to sell hardware that they burn bridges behind them, hopefully that will change now under Tim Cook's rule, (Steve Jobs died) I suspect it will.
Apple's OS X market share has been decreasing, not because Apple isn't selling things, but rather a larger portion of it's users are now using iOS devices instead of Mac's.
Before iOS arrived, it was 10% of users on OS X/Macs, now it's 4% iOS and 6% on OS X/Macs as recorded outside of China's Great Firewall.
I guess the positive thing is, I've only got one piece of malware on my Mac's in 24 years, however I've spent about 10x more for my computers over the years than my PC using friends have because of all the Apple hardware and OS X changes draining my wallet.
For instance they changed video out from DVI to Dual DVI, to Displayport to something else and now Thunderbolt, it's just insane you can't go back into a Apple store and pickup a piece of hardware anymore or older OS X, they start pumping you to change this or that and don't tell you what's it's really going to cost in the end to upgrade everything.
I swear they want us to turn over our machines every two years now like a iPhone or something.
If your a smart PC user, you know then what hardware to buy and how to reinstall Windows yourself, I don't see why you would give up so much hardware and software choice to use a locked down, DRMed Mac that's designed for newbies and children mostly and exiting the "pro" type market more and more every year.
If you think my compaints about Apple above pale in comparison to your experience with Windows 7, then by all means get a Mac, bring a fat wallet and they will be all over you like any high end fashion or Gucci store would.

Should I go for the Mac book pro or the iMac?

Here's my dilemma: I am about to be a sophomore in college and my HP laptop just isn't cutting it for my regular use. My question (which I know is hard to answer) is whether I should purchase the Mac book pro or an iMac. Keep in my I have an iPhone and an iPad, which both come in handy for browsing. I currently use my iPad to keep most of my notes and lectures, but I still need a good computer. I need advice from someone who has had this same problem or owns both an iMac and MacBook Pro. I know my iPad doesn't replace a laptop and I will probably be told to decide whether I need portability, but I would like to hear from someone who also had to make this decision. I'm not leaning to one or the other right now. I am at my home for a good bit, but I do travel around a lot since I am in college. With google drive and other apps I can do most of my writing on my iPad, but for printing reasons I still need the computer. So what are some opinions on which is a better but considering my needs?

In college, my guess would be that portablity would be very important. Since the iMac isn't that sort of eliminates it from consideration.

How long should the Mac Book pro hold its charge???

How long should the Mac Book pro hold a battery charge??

For a single use or how long will the battery last until it needs to be replaced? For single use, it depends on what you are doing when using you mac. I find that when using mine I get about 6-6 1/2 hours just using it to browse the internet before I need to recharge it. If it is one of the newer Macbook Pros that claim to have a 7 hour battery life, It can last up to 5 years. See this article on notebook batteries to get the most out of your battery: http://www.apple.com/batteries/notebooks.html. Hope this helps

Is the Mac Book Pro worth the purchase?

Hey there,
I have a G4 Titanium laptop, and the LCD is starting to fritz. I'm going to get it repaired, but I'm also considering just chucking it and buying a new machine. What do you recommend?
Is the Mac Book Pro worth the purchase?
I just went and looked at the 15" mac book pro at CompUsa, and the machine was so hot around the trackpad area I was shocked. That was a bit of a turnoff for me.
Should I just get the smaller Mac Book? (altho, I hate the shiny screen.)
Is it best to just wait until January and hope for some better machines??
Help!!!
Thanks!

I agree with Brody. Rumor sites have been proven wrong, very wrong in teh past, often. What hapepned to that ipod video that was supsoed ot be otu on teh 30th aniversary, abd before that at soemthign else, then at wwdc? OH yea, it didnt show up, at all
Also as for his 'price comparison' thing it is the same with all machines. The Pro has better video (much better.. though could be better), a better display amonth other small features. It is roughly 800$ more. Now, compare a dell nspiron E1705 - code du0 2.0ghz, 100gb, 1gb, integrated intel graphic chipset, 17" priced at $1499 to a XPS M1710 - codeduo 2,.0ghz, 1gb, 100gb, 17uxga+ display and 512 7900gtx at $2915. Non-integrated graphics, and a good chipset though the 7900gtx does destroy the punny junky x1600 (so take off say 400$ to be more fair) the price diffrence is roughly the same when teh better display si thrown in as to apples 12 vs 15 with higher res and better viewing angle. A decent video chipset for laptops are way more then a regular video card when changing it, displays also don't come cheap.
If you need the power of the mbp for say motion or more professional use on the road (try using a 12 for professional graphic dev or other fields it is more then annoying... i used a ibook prior ot my pb and couldnt do it, i returned it wiht in 2 weeks), powering a better diaplay and whatbe it else i'd suggest getting one. if you do not need it and can live with teh 12" get the macbook.
In the end it is yoru choice, but as we've said don't go by rumors of if or when better cpu will come out as technology advances rapidly unfortunatly, espcilly when there is no officialo word as to if they will go to it.
best of luck on yoru choice!

How do i set the iphone to auto sync with the mac book pro

how do i set the iphone to auto sync with the mac book pro?

Iphone Sync Support wrote:
Thanks but this is not what I am looking for. I am looking for the settings - setting that allows our iphone to auto sync with your mac book when you make a puchase on either device.
You aren't going to sync with my MacBook when I make a purchase.
And you are not going to autosync your iPod with the MacBook unless you tell it to sync or plug it in.
You can enable Automatic downloads when you make a purchase.
iTunes settings > Store.
When you make a purchase, it will automatically download that purchase to devices set up the same way.
This is not the same as autosyncing your device to your computer (as you first asked).

Trivia question: internal production name for the Mac Book Pro

Hi,
I know Apple has internal production names for their products. So the Mac Book Pro has an internal name other than the Mac Book Pro.
i was curious, for trivial purposes, what is Apple's internal production name they use for the MacBook Pro?

Yes, the few people who worked on the project are just dying to post it here so that they can lose their jobs. I can't believe no one has replied yet!
Seriously, no one knew they were ven announcing a new name for the PowerBook outside of the Apple Campus until Steve announced it. Why would anyone know the unannounced codename?

Anyone have an issue with spilling liquid on the Mac Book Pro and it won't turn on now?

A liquid was accidentally spilled on the Mac Book Pro and although it didn't appear that much liquid spilled on the computer, it will not start up now. Anyone have an issue like this? Also, the charger will not light up.

Liquids have no place on a MacBook Pro. Even a little bit is going to damage it. Depending on the type of liquid (pure 100% alcohol the best, since it's volatile and non oxidative), the damage is probably permanent. If it's just water, let it dry, and see what happens. If it's something with sugar or salts in it, then you're probably in trouble, because even if they do dry out, the moisture in the air of place like South Florida will hydrate the dried up salts, creating conductive pathways shorting out your computer over and over again.
You can take it to an authorize Apple dealer or Apple itself for repair. There is no warranty coverage. And the cost will probably exceed that of a new MacBook Pro, depending on the age of yours.

Where is the hdmi outlet for the mac book pro?

I am trying to watch a program that is on a website online and I will like to watch it in my tv. but when i look for the HDMI cable to plug it into the mac book pro I did not find an outlet/output?

You need to get an adaptor.... Like I did this is what I have....

Hello skkmmayer,
That is probably a lot of stuff you do not want on your iPhone. So this can be handled a few different was. For you current situation, you can delete the apps directly on your iPhone by holding on the app until it starts to jiggle and then tap on the X of all the apps that you do not want. The second thing you can do is before you sync with iTunes, look at the app section on your iPhone to know what gets transfer to it and you can deselect items that you do not want. Lastly, if you download content on your iPad and it is a universal app, you can actually download it directly to your iPhone by looking at your past purchases and download it directly from the App Store. Check out the articles below for more information if need further assistance.
