Why is MS software pixelated on my retina macbook?

Sup?
Guessing it's because MS need a software update. Are they going to?
It means I can't / wont use a £2K work MacBook for errrrrm, working!

Applications have to be updated for Retina display, as it uses a very high resolution. This is the case of Office.
Only Office 2011 has received an update that makes it compatible with Retina display, but you can still use Office 2008 if you want. You can download the most recent Office 2011 version from the Microsoft website > http://www.microsoft.com/mac/downloads
Another option would be to go for other apps like Apple iWork or LibreOffice

  • Why is text, icons and pictures pixelated on my retina macbook?

    I have a late 2012 retina macbook pro 15.4 inch. I have the nvidia 650m 1gb card. all mac icons and webpages look great except some icons, when I open a file and I am browsing for the icons for pictures, txt files or video are pixelated and of poor quality.
    Like if i use "open" on photoshop and I am browsing for photos it has every thumbnail and icon pixelated, and it does this everywhere, not just photoshop.
    Also in photo shop, text and signatures for my photography business are all pixelated even the actual picture until i zooom in.
    What is going on?

    If restarting your computer does not clear things up....
    Call AppleCare.  You are still under warranty.

  • Why Does Retina MacBook Pro (2012) Suddenly Hibernate With Lid Open?

    I'd like to know why my Retina MacBook Pro (2012) at certain times suddenly go into Hibernate mode when I'm actively using it with the lid open and what I can do to prevent this.
    I know this is hibernate because of what I see in the Console logs and the fact that I can't trigger a wake by using the keyboard/trackpad/mouse.  Only the power button causes it to wake up.
    This usually happens when I wake it from sleep and plug it into an external monitor via HDMI to HDMI connection.   The lid is open and I use both displays.    This happens about 30 seconds to a minute after I wake from sleep.  At the time I'm not plugged into the power supply because I believe it's generally a good idea to let the batter drain and the recharge it.  The last time this happened it was about 35% to 40% charged.
    Hardware Overview:
      Model Name:    MacBook Pro
      Model Identifier:    MacBookPro10,1
      Processor Name:    Intel Core i7

    Is it possible there's a bug either with the displayed power or how remaining power is detected?

  • Why won't my MBP 13.3 Retina start up?

    Why won't my MBP 13.3 Retina start up? Bought late 2013. First had problems waking it from sleep. Now when I turn it on, the gray screen comes up with the apple logo and then the wheel spins for a few seconds before the screen turns black. The computer has not been dropped or damaged, but it has been used in a tropical climate.

    Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
    To restart an unresponsive computer, press and hold the power button for a few seconds until the power shuts off, then release, wait a few more seconds, and press it again briefly.
    Step 1
    The first step in dealing with a startup failure is to secure the data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since the last backup, you can skip this step.
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to start. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
    a. Start up from the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.” The article refers to starting up from a DVD, but the procedure in Recovery mode is the same. You don't need a DVD if you're running OS X 10.7 or later.
    b. If Step 1a fails because of disk errors, and no other Mac is available, then you may be able to salvage some of your files by copying them in the Finder. If you already have an external drive with OS X installed, start up from it. Otherwise, if you have Internet access, follow the instructions on this page to prepare the external drive and install OS X on it. You'll use the Recovery installer, rather than downloading it from the App Store.
    c. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, start the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    d. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    If the startup process stops at a blank gray screen with no Apple logo or spinning "daisy wheel," then the startup volume may be full. If you had previously seen warnings of low disk space, this is almost certainly the case. You might be able to start up in safe mode even though you can't start up normally. Otherwise, start up from an external drive, or else use the technique in Step 1b, 1c, or 1d to mount the internal drive and delete some files. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation.
    Step 3
    Sometimes a startup failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
    Step 4
    If a desktop Mac hangs at a plain gray screen with a movable cursor, the keyboard may not be recognized. Press and hold the button on the side of an Apple wireless keyboard to make it discoverable. If need be, replace or recharge the batteries. If you're using a USB keyboard connected to a hub, connect it to a built-in port.
    Step 5
    If there's a built-in optical drive, a disc may be stuck in it. Follow these instructions to eject it.
    Step 6
    Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to start up, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can start up now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
    Step 7
    If you've started from an external storage device, make sure that the internal startup volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
    Start up in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know the login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    When you start up in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, the startup volume is corrupt and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to Step 11. If you ever have another problem with the drive, replace it immediately.
    If you can start and log in in safe mode, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
    If the startup process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
    Step 8
    Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see Step 1.) Select the startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
    This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then restart as usual.
    Step 9
    If the startup device is an aftermarket SSD, it may need a firmware update and/or a forced "garbage collection." Instructions for doing this with a Crucial-branded SSD were posted here. Some of those instructions may apply to other brands of SSD, but you should check with the vendor's tech support.  
    Step 10
    Reinstall the OS. If the Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    Step 11
    Do as in Step 9, but this time erase the startup volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically restart into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer the data from a Time Machine or other backup.
    Step 12
    This step applies only to models that have a logic-board ("PRAM") battery: all Mac Pro's and some others (not current models.) Both desktop and portable Macs used to have such a battery. The logic-board battery, if there is one, is separate from the main battery of a portable. A dead logic-board battery can cause a startup failure. Typically the failure will be preceded by loss of the settings for the startup disk and system clock. See the user manual for replacement instructions. You may have to take the machine to a service provider to have the battery replaced.
    Step 13
    If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.

  • My iphone 4s is no longer syncing with my computer.  Why? My software on the computer IS the latest version.  Iphone 4 cannot be updated due to lack of storage

    My iphone 4s is no longer syncing with my computer.  Why? My software on the computer IS the latest version.  Iphone 4 cannot be updated due to lack of storage

    What happens when you try to sync? Do you see any error messages? Which software on the computer are you referring to, iTunes? The latest iTunes is 11.1.3. If you cannot update the phone due to lack of storage, you will need to delete some content from the phone.

  • Why is the software update not showing up in general settings?

    Why does my software update not show up in general settings?

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 7.1.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.
    You can no longer update to iOS 6.x, or down grade the iOS.

    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and antivirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 7.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
    How to Upgrade to iOS 7
    The iOS 7.0 update requires around 2.5 GB of storage space, so if your iPad is almost full, you may need to clear up some space. You can check your available space in Settings -> General -> Usage.
    There are two ways to upgrade to iOS 7: You can use your Wi-Fi connection, or you can connect your iPad to your PC and update through iTunes. We'll go over each method.
    To upgrade using Wi-Fi:
    Note: If your iPad's battery is under 50%, you will want to plug it into your charger while performing the update.
    Go into the iPad's Settings.
    Locate and tap "General" from the menu on the left.
    The second option from the top is "Software Update". Tap this to move into the update settings.
    Tap "Download and Install". This will start the upgrade, which will take several minutes and will reboot your iPad during the process. If the Download and Install button is grayed out, trying clearing up some space. The space required by the update is mostly temporary, so you should gain most of it back after iOS 7 is installed.
    Once the update is installed, you may have to run through the initial steps of setting up your iPad again. This is to account for new features and settings.
    To upgrade using iTunes:
    First, connect your iPad to your PC or Mac using the cable provided when you purchased your device. This will allow iTunes to communicate with your iPad.
    You will also need the latest version of iTunes. Don't worry, you will be prompted to download the latest version when you launch iTunes. Once it installs, you may be asked to setup iCloud by logging into your iTunes account. If you have a Mac, you may be prompted on whether or not you want to enable the Find my Mac feature.
    Now you are ready to begin the process:
    If you upgraded iTunes earlier, go ahead and launch it. (For many, it will launch automatically when you plug in your iPad.)
    Once iTunes is launched, it should automatically detect that a new version of the operating system exists and prompt you to upgrade to it. Choose Cancel. Before updating, you will want to manually sync your iPad to make sure everything is up to date.
    After canceling the dialog box, iTunes should automatically sync with your iPad.
    If iTunes doesn't automatically sync, you can manually do it by selecting your iPad within iTunes, clicking on the File menu and choosing Sync iPad from the list.
    After your iPad has been synced to iTunes, select your iPad within iTunes. You can find it on the left side menu under Devices.
    From the iPad screen, click on the Update button.
    After verifying that you want to update your iPad, the process will begin. It takes a few minutes to update the operating system during which time your iPad may reboot a few times.
    After updating, you may be asked a few questions when your device finally boots back up. This is to account for new settings and features.

  • Why are pre-built graphics blurry on retina displays?

    I have designed multiple vector infographics in Inkpad (iPad app) and imported them into Adobe Muse. The desktop version of graphics looks great. iPad version is blurry and pixelated.
    No matter how I export the grpahics (ie: .png, .jpeg, .gif) it is always way below par on iPad. I have also tried making the images much larger in AI, still nothing is working. This is extremely frustrating and seems like it should be more simple. Is there a work around for importing .svg into muse sites via the "Insert HTML" feature?
    So far I have had the best luck saving in PNG-24
    The website is viztech.businesscatalyst.com

    Do they still look blurry on the "best" setting for Retina?
    The problem I see is, there are many applications around that were created a decade ago, and the developers have moved on. These are still valuable applications for many people. Are they just always going to look crappy on the Retina MacBook? That sounds pretty undesirable.
    The difference with the iPhone is, the Retina was an upgrade, but didn't make existing applications look worse.

  • Why Free Hand software stopped?

    I'm a senior graphic designer and I work in a cosmetics company.
    I work using many Graphic software like (Adobe photoshop, InDesign, Audition, Illustrator and 3Ds max, 3D Maya ... etc.) on Mac OS and Windows.
    My problem that I was work using (Macromedia Free Hand) for many years and this software was an important partner and part and parcel in progress and success in my work.
    That was until your great and decent company has done a deal to buy Macromedia company software then stopped after this a wonderful software (Free Hand).
    The question that arises why has this software stopped?
    This software is very easy and flexible and faster than the other softwares in the same class It only lacks a few things to become the most powerful software in its class.
    It is not only my opinion but many other Designers as well who suffer from other softwares who forced to work with it.
    We have a history of our formal designs that well be lost sooner if (Free hand) is not back once more. because he no longer works on Mac os 10:10 and (Fh11) format no longer Known from other softwares.
    We dream that your great and decent company responds for many Graphic Designers and Launch (Adobe Free Hand) software to become the strongest, the newest and the fastest software in the vector world.
    We need that software strongly and we have a great hope in your decent company that makes our future better.
    I know that my opinion is simple, but i'm sure they'll find an ear to hear and a mind to understand our needs

    If you are a legally licensed owned of Freehand, it's hard to find a legal download of the trial version ot use with the provided serial number that Adobe gave out when the Macromedia activation servers were shut down.
    Now mostly, there are illegal/piracy type  sites offering Freehand trial versions, etc.
    i Find Affinity to be quite a interesting and promising alternative on the Mac.
    You are right that Adobe has cut off the Trial downloads on their servers. They don't want to sell or support FreeHand anymore and I don't blame them since it is their CC apps that are important to them. This only means Adobe has washed their hands of FreeHand and it will drift into abandonware and that may not be a bad thing in the long run.
    As for trial versions, I have copies of Macromedia FreeHand 10 and MX on a large number of old magazine CDs and these could be posted somewhere. I also agree that Affinity Designer is showing promise but still awkward with type tools and converting FreeHand files. I compare it to FHMX so it is a high hurdle to follow.

    Because Apple did not put one in there.
    Will Apple eventually stop producing CD/DVD drives?
    We can't really answer that, but it would not surprise me. More and more of the computers being produced by Apple lack an internal optical drive. If you really need one, get an external such as LowLuster suggests.
    Best of luck.

  • Dead pixels on 2014 refreshed 15" Retina MacBook Pros

    I am a long time Apple user and I own a few Apple products including a White MacBook. Recently, I ordered a top of the line refreshed retina MacBook Pro through the education store and it appeared to have a few dead pixels. Sure the defect was very minor. Not noticeable for most people. But I am extremely sensitive to such anomalies. When I drop $3.5K+ on the absolute maximum configuration (15" rMBP, 2.8GHz, 1TB disk) that Apple has to offer on these notebooks, I expect ZERO defects. Anyway, I returned the rMBP to Apple and ordered a new one. It too had a few dead pixels. I returned that too. I was very frustrated. I thought about this for a while and suspect that it's because I bought the notebooks at a discounted rate from the Apple Education store that they are selling these "A" grade screens rather than the A+ grade ones. I have ordered a third notebook not from the education store. I'll see what quality display I get with it.
    FYI, the first notebook had a LG display while the second one had a samsung. Both had very similar pixel anomalies. I would gladly pay full retail if I get a flawless screen as I'll be spending over 14 hours staring at it. For someone whose going to drop $3.5K on a notebook, $300 don't matter much.

    I have a single Pixel that is broke on my 2 month old retina macbook pro. I have Apple care. What will Happen if I bring it to an apple store.

    You can try to see if they will replace it, however there is some sort of acceptable amount of stuck pixels and they won't replace so I hear.
    But that was a long time ago and things change.

    It's pretty difficult to offer suggestions when you say nothing about your Mac, the version of Mac OS it's running, or the models of printers you have. This forum, however, is intended for questions about old, pre-G3 hardware, so unless you are asking about an very old Mac, this is not the forum where you'll be most likely to get help with your problem. I'd suggest you ask this question in the forum for your model of Mac or version of Mac OS X it's running. You'll be more likely to get assistance there, assuming you provide sufficient detail for anyone to make a diagnosis of the problem.
