Which MacBook Pro ? Who can help ?

Who can tell me which MacBook Pro is best to work with ProTools 10 and Photoshop CS6, without which the processor is fully utilized ?
Thank you for your reply

Likely the 'high end' non-Retina MacBook Pro, mid 2012, with the 15" screen and the 2.6GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor and NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1GB of GDDR5 memory.
That's what I'd get for running Photoshop CS6 (which I do on my late 2011 model) if it were me.
Good luck,
Clinton

  • Which MacBook Pro Models can handle 16GB RAM

    Hey, I'm looking to get a refurbished MBP and I'm wondering which models (that came with i series processors) can support 16GB of memory. Any help will be appreciated, thank you.

    jadasneez,
    any non-Retina model from 2011 or 2012 (they all have Core i5 or Core i7 CPUs) can support 16 GB of RAM, as well as any Retina model that came from the factory with 16 GB of RAM soldered on.

  • I have a MacBook Pro, 15-inch, Mid 2009.  I would love to upgrade to a Solid State Drive.  What is the best possible upgrade I can buy.  I need the specs and even brand name.  Thank you to anyone who can help.

    A 15" mid-2009 MBP RAM specifications are: 204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM.
    As has been pointed out, OWC is an excellent source for Mac compatible RAM.  Crucial is another first rate source for Mac RAM.  RAM from either vendor will work just as well as any purchased from Apple with the bonus of being less expensive and having a lifetime guarantee.
    Ciao.

  • I have recently installed the new OSX Lion on my 2009 MacBook. Now I cannot get access to my Windows-Partition, which is on the harddisk. I cannot choose to boot from LION OSX or Windows. Who can help?

    I have recently upgraded my MacBook to OSX Lion. Now I cannot get access to my windows-partition. I cannot choose booting from OSX Lion or Windows. Who can help???

    I believe that Lion and Mountian Lion use BootCamp 4.0 and earlier versions used 3.0. I don't use BootCamp but from reading The link below you need to get new drivers, burn a cd and install. Check out #20 on this page.

  • I have a Java/CVE-2010-94 virus on my macbook pro. Can Someone help me fix this?

    I used Virus Barrier Express that I downloaded from the App Store and it found a virus named Java/CVE-2010-94. I ran Virus Barrier Express again after I prssed the "fixed it" button; however, i'm not sure if this virus or any other virus is still on my MacBook Pro. Can someone please help me know if i'm safe to use my Mac?
    *The first sign of any type of virus was when I was on a website and my screen froze. I couldn't move anything or press anything. Something popped up and told me to turn off the Mac. I had no choice and I did turn it off. I used my Virus Barrier Express to scan any viruses, but nothing appeared. It only appeared after I downloaded new updates yesterday.
    *I just did some research and it turned out to be a "kernel Panic". http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3742 I haven't encountered another one ever since so does that mean my Mac is safe now?

    Steven --
    Get rid of the VirusBarrier Express.  At this time, there are no Mac viruses.  All you're doing with that thing is slowing down your Mac.  Look in your VBE folder, to see if there's an UNinstaller.  I don't know why Apple is making these things available.  They're garbage, 98% of them.  Two good ones are ClamXav and Sophos.  But still, IMHO, they are unnecessary.
    Kernel Panics, on the other hand, are serious.  If you don't have any more of them, that's good.  If you have any more of them, come back and post your Panic report here. 
    Here's info on this virus, which should affect only PCs.

    But the have some great advice to avoid malware:
    Take the following steps to help prevent infection on your computer:
    Enable a firewall on your computer.
    Get the latest computer updates for all your installed software.
    Use up-to-date antivirus software.
    Limit user privileges on the computer.
    Use caution when opening attachments and accepting file transfers.
    Use caution when clicking on links to web pages.
    Avoid downloading pirated software.
    Protect yourself against social engineering attacks.
    Use strong passwords.

  • I am going to college this fall and can't decide which MacBook pro to buy!

    I am going to college this fall and can't decide which MacBook pro to buy the 13in or the 15in. Mainly to type, browse the web, watch videos, and maybe some light gaming. I am worried that the 15in might be too big to carry around all the time.  And worried about the 13in being too small and hurting my eyes over time. Once I do get one, I am most likely going to use it for the full 4 years. Please Help !

    The 13" will do the trick for what you describe as your needs, Be sure to consider how you will backup your data -- need an external drive?
    Also be sure to check with your college or division of study to see what they recommend. If they are hostile to Macs, you may be on your own for finding support. But in most major cities, that will not be too hard.

  • I have installed ios7 on my iPad 4. After installation it asked me pass code which I have never set. After multiple attempts it is disabled. I don't have backup on my iCloud or iTunes. Is there anyone who can help to enable it or to reverse iPad to ios6.

    I have installed ios7 on my iPad 4. After installation it asked me a pass code which I have never set. After multiple attempts it is disabled. I don't have backup on my iCloud or iTunes. Is there anyone who can help to enable it or to reverse iPad to ios6. I asked Apple store & tech said to format it but I will lose all the data..!

    Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
    Thanks

  • I have a report from WhatisHang which (in theory) tells my why my firefox constantly hangs up. But I need someone who can help figure this out.

    I hope this section will work, i couldnt find a place for Hang ups, and this problem doesnt usually cause a full crash, which is why it was hard to figure it out.
    I finally used the program WhatisHang to try to get an idea of what is causing the seemingly random hanging, but have been unable to find anyone who can help me with it.
    I have posted the Troubleshooting Information, though i dont think it would be of much help.
    I have the report available but dont know where i can post it.

    I must admit I seem possibly to be suffering from hangs also, although as I am often not in a hurry when using firefox on this machine it has little impact. I am using a legacy computer and tend to blame this on the computer or maybe background tasks such as from security software or indexing.
    '''Do you still get the hangs in safe mode with all''' (or maybe all but one essential plugin if you think a plugin is involved in the hangs) '''plugins disabled ?
    Have you tried to rule out
    * background tasks are the problem, <br/>(at least monitor what else is running using Task Manager or sysinternals process explorer)
    * [[is my firefox problem a result of malware|malware]]. <br/>( consider full system scans with multiple tools/software)
    * any other interacting programs or plugins <br/>(some may not be listed in firefox, you may need to check / uninstall from the OS {Windows Control Panel})
    **it may also be an idea to check hangs still occur when WhatIsHangs is not in use.
    * have you tried logging the cc & gc times in the error console, <br/>(if for instance you see times in 1000s of milliseconds appearing you may have then identified one reason for firefox being unresponsive, even if the cause is not yet identified. - a symptom the memshrink firefox developers will no doubt be eager to investigate)
    * if you can get hangs in safe mode, on at least the Aurora channel releases I suggest you immediately go ahead and file a bug yourself. (I will try to find time if not today then next weekend to look more closely at my own system to see if it is showing hangs in firefox use)
    ** ideally try with all default preferences
    ** As you have changed preferences, I suggest you include as a attachment in the bug your list of user modified preferences (use ''about:support'' or Troubleshooting Information option)
    ** State what security software is in use, it could be an important factor.<br/> (I imagine the majority of users have security software, or if not have security vulnerabilities and potentially an undetected malware problem)
    I will try to find and download a copy of WhatIsHang, see if it works on my system and what results it then shows.
    I realise I have not said anything terribly helpful I solving your problem, but I suspect you are not alone in having hangs, if you are able to spare the time to investigate and report I am sure it will help others.
    Firefox has had a few problems recently that would have been solved sooner if they were investigated when first reported, but unfortunatly an advantage of firefox is how easy it is to customise, but the downside is differentiating between a firefox fault and customisation problems.

  • Help only have 14 gb left of 500 gb on MacBook Pro. Can I upgrade to 1Tb?

    Help only have 14 gb left of 500 gb on MacBook Pro. Can I upgrade to 1Tb? (I purchased it August 2010) If not any suggestions to increase storage. Majority of my 500 gb is Desktop (assuming that is mainly snow leopard?) pictures and music. Don't really want to delete any of that.

    extremely easy, see ifixit.com  on a 10 scale its a 2
    And mende is right, dont consider data archives of important info via wifi, and its slow.   That you "can" doesnt mean you "should"
    #1  You can just CLONE the original internal drive, you dont have to "install" anything.
    grab carbon copy cloner or superDuper CLONE app.
    2 attach target clone drive via USB in an enclosure or HD dock. Firstly format the target (external new) HD or SSD in disk utility in “Mac OS extended journaled”
    3 clone internal HD to target HD or SSD (external) [takes about 40 mins depending on size]
    4. Boot ONCE from external (go to sys. preference to boot from external) to TEST the new Clone
    5 open bottom (see videos on ifixit or youtube on same) and remove old, install new.
    (this video is for a 2012, look at this site for YOUR specific year / model)
    http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Replacing+MacBook+Pro+13-Inch+Unibody+Mid+2012+Hard+ Drive/10378/1
    Done    (FIRST TIME after installing, boot will be SLOW,...normal and ignore that).
    Clone APPS
    Superduper does not clone the recovery partition, but that is NOT necessary if you keep the original HD as a “backup clone”. Most don’t bother with the recovery partition in a clone, however that is your prerogative.

  • I need help to decide which macbook pro is best for photo editing, editing movies and doing all the rest too like excel, word etc. 13"

    I need help to decide which macbook pro is best for photo editing, editing movies and doing all the rest too like  microsoft office products ...excel, word etc.  I am new to the apple world and have liked the idea of the MAC Book Pro 13" but really dont know if this is good enough or if the computer will soon crash?
    13-inch: 2.6GHz
    with Retina display
    Specifications
    2.6GHz dual-core Intel Core i5
    Turbo Boost up to 3.1GHz
    8GB 1600MHz memory
    512GB PCIe-based flash storage1
    Intel Iris Graphics
    Built-in battery (9 hours)2

    That's a fine machine and, with 8GB of RAM and 512GB flash storage should serve you well for light video/photo editing as well as for 'normal' usage. And it should last you for years to come.
    Good luck in making your decision!!
