    My rMBP's GPU is dying :(

    Some of the artefacts don't even appear on the screenshots. I'm sad, this ************ rocked flawlessly since I bought it in OCT 2012. Do you guys have any idea of how much would it cost to replace the GPU (or I guess the entire motherboard) of a 2012 15 inch rMBP? I'm totally not buying one...

    Time to buy?

    I have a 2012 macbook pro that I was going to upgrade to the newest macbook pro in April-ish. My charger officially broke today and new chargers are $80. Should I buy the charger just to use it for two months or should I make the big purchase? Any other options are welcome... thanks!

    Battery life on 15" MBP

    I'll start with a disclaimer that I'm not normally one to obsessively check battery health, if at all, though it seems I've been getting pretty good life from my old slugger of a laptop. She's a 2012 15" cMBP, purring with maxed RAM and a Samsung EVO. Yeah I've got Retina screen envy and I'd...

    Opening 2012 Macbook Pro Retina 15"

    Hi All, I wonder if someone else was stuck in the same situation as I am here. I want to open up my 2012 rMBP for a clean up as it was not done since Apple last had it looked at and replaced my network card in 2013. There's loads of dust I can see behind the vents on the side and back. Now...

    iMac Audio Issues after Repair

    I don't know a lot about the internals of iMacs, but I had a question... I took my Late 2012 iMac into Apple Store for repair as I had lines on my monitor (not like the ones you can google, like grid lines/guide lines that you'd see in Illustrator/Photoshop and it turned out I had to have the...

    Apple Watch Auto Unlock Questions [MERGED]

    Can anybody confirm if Auto Unlock does or does not work on the Mid 2012 rMBP? I've seen that it doesn't work on a Late 2012 Mac mini, but the rMBP was a bit ahead of its time in connectivity and I imagine Apple isn't dotting the i and crossing the t on the beta docs. Figure if there is one...

    32 gb memory into MBP 2012 13

    Hello! I'm curious about possibility of putting 32 gb of ram into my MBP 2012(mid, i7). I know the 3520m processor CAN serve 32 gb of ram memory BUT there might be some limitation on the motherboard making impossible the usage of 32 gigs of ram. The question is: did anybody try to put one pair...

    I've done some research online and even got ahold of apple support, but didn't get any definitive answers. Is there any way to connect 2 cinema displays to my MPB (last of the non-retinas) simultaneously? Both displays are non-thunderbolt, use mini-dvi and only have usb ports on the back. I...

    Hi everyone, Upgraded to El Capitan last week and it hasn't been a great experience. App's are crashing, the wheel of death is a regular occurrence even for the smallest tasks e.g. Apple>About This Mac. The iMac is just generally slow.
