Where is the mini displayport on the latest 15" macbook pro retina?

I'm contemplating replacing my first generation Mac Pro with the latest MacBook Pro (fully tricked out 15" w/retina). I want to continue using my Eizo CE24W monitor. I keep seeing references to a mini displayport and adapters, but in photos of the MacBook Pro there is no mini displayport. I'm missing something basic here, what is it?

HDMI and Thunderbolt display ports now, not mini displayPort:

Where is the 17" new macbook Pro

Where is the 17" new macbook Pro??

@kc1974,
Yes, I understood that. That is why I brought up the consideration of limited manufacturing capacity even before I questioned whether the sheer size of a 17" laptop like the new 15" MacBook Pro with Retina Display wouldn't pose challenges of its own.
To reiterate: Suppose you were manufacturing three models of a laptop and you wanted to upgrade the line, not with incremental modifications (like the ones that characterize the "new" 13" and 15" MacBook Pro's), but with something that would leave the competition eating your dust. Suppose further that this "something" would make the laptops fairly expensive, something your fans won't expect. They have been used to upgraded model s costing no more than the models that they replace, i.e., more performance for the same price. So you test the market by giving it a choice between a normally upgraded version of one model, or a version of the same model with the technology that will enable you to leave the competition behind. How do you propose to manufacture the "ground-breaking" version without having to increase your manufacturing capacity? After all, you don't want the test to be more expensive than necessary! You decide to devote the line that presently manufactures the least popular model to manufacturing the "ground-breaking" version of the one model.
I think that make some sense, don't you? Now suppose that the MBP 15" with Retina Display turns out to be a runaway success. I doubt that Apple would continue to offer just the three MBP's that it is offering today. It would make a lot of sense to consolidate around models with Retina displays, i.e., to replace the unibody MBP's by models with Retina displays (and without all the things that some of us which hadn't been sacrificed in the name of thinness). That would be the time to introduce a 17" MBP with Retina Display. Here's another "suppose". Suppose Apple had introduced an upgrade to the 17" MBP along with the upgrades to the other two models. Which segment of the customer base do you think would howl the loudest, becasue no sooner had they bought the upgrade, than the version with the Retina display was introduced? Correct! That segment that had always purchased the technologically most advanced model.
I think I'm going to hang on to my MBP 17" until the verdict is in on the new Retina MBP. Maybe by that time Apple will see fit to let us in on its plans for us.

Richard

What is the problem on MacBook Pro retina 15"?

I just bought a new MacBook Pro retina 15". After unboxing, I turned it on and there was no any problem. But the second time I turned it on and charge battery, I got 2 problems, 1. The machine made noise loudly and 2. The charging is not working. What is the problem on MacBook Pro retina 15"? However, after about 1 hour, it works normally. Should I still use it or sell it before it has more issues?

The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

Appears and quickly disappears a new screen overlaying the screen in use, it starts at the bottom of the screen tela.MACbook pro retina.O what could be causing this?

Thanks for the suggestion, the next step was to call Apple, who gave me a claim number, which I discovered you must have to get anything done with them. They refered me to a Apple store or repair center, after some reseach took it to the Computer Store in Mobile, Alabama and they were excellent. They took pictures of the screen with bug submitted it to Apple who denied the claim but they kept kicking it up to the next level and finally Apple agreed to sent new cover. The Computer Store had the cover the next day, they changed it out and now I am bug free. If your in the area of Mobile Alabama you can feel good about getting help from the Computer Store. For the two folks that responded to my note, Thank You, good comments and good advice.

Why Apple store can't Upgrade the storage for Macbook Pro Retina after sale?

Hello everyone
I am disappointed from apple store .
One month ago i bought the new MacBook Pro Retina with storage 256 GB and now i would like to upgrade the storage to 768 GB as mentioned in there website where you can configure the storage higher,but unfortunately i went to apple store to upgrade,but they refused and they said we only upgrade within the order in the beggining before you buy it !!!!!!!!
even if i go to normal shop they will do the upgrade but i will lose my waranty .
Is there any advice ?
Thanks
Khalid

No one seems to be hearing what Big Q is saying.
He can pair his iPhone to his Macbook, but cannot CONNECT. He's NOT asking for alternative solutions, like Wi Fi.
I am able to both pair and connect my one one Macbook to my other one, but I can only pair but not connect my iPhone or iPad to either Macbook. So I have the same problem. But I can pair and connect my Macbooks to other Bluetooth devices, like my ancient Nokia cellfone, or my Bluetooth HP printer.
It's irrelavent that I can instead use a direct USB cable or Wi Fi between my Macbooks and my iPhone/iPad - why can't I use Bluetooth? If Apple does not allow Bluetooth between it's Macbooks and other Mac devices, then why have Bluetooth at all? Does my iPhone have Bluetooth only so that I can pair and connect to my my non Apple mobile handsfree car kit, or communicate easily with the dreaded Apple enemy Samsung, or what?
Make no mistake , I am a diehard Apple fan, but this Bluetooth non compatibility issue appears shortsighted and seemingly pointless. Why does Apple not just say why they created the non compatibility, or have a message on the Bluetooth setup programme which simply and clearly says "don't bother wasting hours of your time trying to pair and connect your iPhone to your Macbook, because we don't allow that anymore, reason being that............"?
As a first time user of this Forum I am surprised at the intolerant and highhanded tone of some of the replies to what is a legitimate question, that is obviously plagueing many, many other Apple users.

Can the late 2013 Macbook Pro Retina 13" power 2 external Dell UltraSharp U2713HM monitors at full resolution?

Hi, I'm looking at buying the current Macbook Pro Retina 13", but I'd like to use it with 2 Dell UltraSharp U2713HM monitors http://configure.euro.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?c=uk&cs=ukdhs1&kc=305&l=en& oc=U2713HM-Black&s=dhs&sbc=dell-u2713hm
My plan was to use the the thunderbolt ports to the monitors DisplayPort plug. Can the 13" Macbook Pro drive 2 external screens @ 2560x1440 I'm happy to shut the macbook lid if necessary.
If the 13" can't do it, can the 15" model with it's discrete graphics card?
The Dell UltraSharp U2713HM – it’s everything you could want in a 27” monitor – screen brilliance, comfort and eco-consciousness all rolled into one
27-inch (diagonal) VIS with LED backlight
WQHD resolution, 2560 x 1440 at 60 Hz (Max)
178°/178° ultra-wide viewing angle

Why not the Apple Thunderbolt screen, well I prefer a non-reflective screen in the office, but If I can't do it with the Dell's can it be done with 2 27" Thunderbolt monitors from the 13" Macbook Pro?

In a word, yes.
The video out capabilities for the 13" and 15" retina MBPs are the same.

Should I get the base model MacBook Pro Retina 13" (2.4ghz/8gb/256gb) or is it worth upgrading the processor to the 2.6ghz

I'm looking to get a new computer and would like the the retina display. I do a fair amount of video editing and photo editing. I was wondering if the faster processor would make a difference. I was also looking at the refurbished 15" retinas and didn't know if that would be better for me or not.

If you need photo and video editing, go for the 15-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display. The 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display won't work correctly for what you want to use the MacBook for, as it has only got an integrated GPU, and some photo and video editing applications are not compatible with these GPUs.
Instead, the 15-inch MacBook Pro has got a quad-core processor and two GPUs, one for the general use and another one for tasks that require extra performance, so it will work better. If you don't mind losing performance to save money, go for the 13-inch MacBook Pro, and note that you have 14 days to return the MacBook Pro if it doesn't meet your needs

Mini Displayport to vga adapter on MacBook pro 13" late 2011. No signal on external monitor

Hi
Connecting a Late 2011 MacBook Pro 13" to an external monitor, trough mini Dispalyport to vga adapter, i see "no signal" messagge on external monitor, even if i get it as secondary monitor on Preferences > Monitor of my MacBook it's visible (i can change resolution, position, clone screen, ecc.).

Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter and macbook pro

I have a 2010 macbook pro 13", samsung 20" LED display connected via mini display port. The setup has been fine for a few months but occasionally both displays would turn blue as it tries to detect itself(I assume) when this happened I would just need to reset to fix itself. This week I used my laptop away from the screen for a while, once I connected it to the display the blue screen has become more prominent, it would blank out for no reason intermittently and has become progressively worse. I've tried shutting down, cleaning the mini-display-port, resetting PRAM and now I'm out of ideas.
Could it be related to the new EFI firmware update v2.5? that was the last major update installed.

You might be better off taking the computer and the display into a Apple Genius Bar annd showing them what is happening.
They may have a fix or maybe something needs to be replaced.

Is it a good idea to buy the mid 2014 macbook pro Retina, if the ssd isn't changible.

I've been researching computer specifications lately, as I'm looking to buy a new laptop. And i've learned that hdd & ssd wear out over time. Am i right in saying that they are the only thing that causes a computer to run slower overtime? whether its caused by wear, filling them up or other things.
But if i can't change the ssd, will the laptop not be slow after 2.5-3 years, and then i will eventually be forced to buy a new laptop.
I'm looking to use The macbook for music production, and everyday browsing.

Thanks for the answers. I am a big fan of using Mac, but there are no other purchase options than the latest retina models. They have stopped selling all the previews models here in Denmark, and portability is important to me, so it has to be a laptop.
I just called Apple support here in Denmark, and they said, if I find the ssd slow they will change it to a new ssd for an unknown price.

How well would the new 13" Macbook Pro Retina handle HD video editing, in say Adobe Premier?

Hi there.
I'm buying a new Macbook Pro and would like to know how well the different specs would handle editing HD videos from a GoPro. I've mostly been filming in 720 because my current white macbook (2008) is dying, but wouldnt mind filming in 1080.
This is what im consudering
http://store.apple.com/us/buy-mac/macbook-pro?product=ME865LL/A&step=config
2.4GHz dual-core Intel Core i5
Turbo Boost up to 2.9GHz
8GB 1600MHz memory
256GB PCIe-based flash storage1
Intel Iris Graphics
Will it be powerful enough? Would it be very future proof?
Thanks for your help in advance.
Chris

I would agree that the $200 upgrade to the i7 would probably be the best choice if you want the 13" form factor. If you're able (and since these systems are so new, I've not seen many heads-up comparisons), I would ask to load Premier on both an i5 model and an i7 model and see which renders video more quickly. Usually, a lot of rendering depends on the GPU but, as I said, I don't know enough about the Iris built-in GPU to know if it's a lot faster than the old Intel 4000 or not.
If you can't get a hands-on Premiere comparison, surely you could ask for a FCP X demo on both machines!
Good luck with your choice,
Clinton
