I've had my 16" MBP M2 Max 96GB RAM / 8TB drive for about a month. Yes, I maxed the ever-lovin' crap out of it because it's my first new Mac since 2005. :p The screen will occasionally and seemingly randomly flicker. It doesn't seem to do this consistently enough to tell what is causing it. I...

It's now 2023 and I have a keyboard issue with my 2016 MBP 15 touch bar (A1707). I got in contact with Apple via phone and had a senior advisor extend my out-of-warranty replacement for the keyboard as my allowed time frame to have it replaced had passed. So there was an exception granted. I...

Hey folks on the forum, regarding this issue, I'm pretty sure I'm seriously ignorant about it. See, a few days ago, my colleague mentioned in passing that sometimes there's a slight "sound" when shaking his MBP, which he showed me (it's actually not that bad). So, I tested my own MBP (M1 Max 16)...

As the title says - I’ve found a 2014 MBP 15” in mint consition and I’m thinking about buying it. I have powerfull(ish) Lenovo Legion that I use as my daily driver and I’ve been longing to own a Mac again but am unwilling to drop the money on a new 16” MBP at the moment / I’m still kind of...

I've got a M1 16" MBP that I currently use with the Dell S2722QC monitor. I like to minimize the number of wires on my desk so I only have the monitor plugged into my laptop. However, it just occurred to me that the monitor I use provides 65w. Is this a problem? Will it damage my MBP battery?

Dear All, I recently took a look at the battery capacity of my 2021 M1 Pro MBP, bought around February 2022, and noticed that it has dropped significantly after 45 charge cycles (compared for example to my much older iPhone, after 2 years still at 88 percent). According to settings the maximum...

Yeah... Just being curious...Is it still Intel? Or Apple itself.

LTDR: is there a reason why I would be worse off waiting 4 more weeks to report to Apple Care? Because I'm going to be out of the country. In the end of July this year I upgraded from my 2012 MBP, which was my first one and it was amazing. Main reason to upgrade was that it was becoming slow...

Hi all I recently bought a MBP late 2011 (15inch model) but it does not seem to have bluetooth working. I have tried: 1) resetting nvram 2) resetting smc 3) reinstalling MacOs High Sierra (the most recent MacOs that can be installed) 4) replaced the Wifi/bluetooth module. After all in System...

How works the cooling system (fans) in a MacBook Pro 14" in clamshell mode? When the screen is open the hot air comes out from the bottom of the screen. So, i was wondering how it works and if it affects the cooling when the fans are in use in clamshell mode?

From what I've read so far, it seems that MagSafe is merely faster at charging than USB C. However, I currently use a MBP 2019, with USB C, and all my accessories work with it fine. Would it not be better to merely stick with a USB C MBP, versus a MagSafe one? Was thinking of upgrading my MBP...

Hi All, I'm hoping that someone can confirm if a MacBook Pro 13 2020 (four thunderbolt ports) will work with the LG 40WP95C-W monitor using HiDPI scaling at 3840x1620? I have been reading up for a while although there are some many factors to consider and honestly I'm slightly confused. I've...

Hello, I have found that these two processes wake my laptop during sleep: What are these two processes? Can I disable them? I have already disabled power nap, tcpkeepalive, screen time, proximitywake. Bluetooth is still enabled. I have attached file with pmset -g log | grep "Wake Requests"...

Hey so, im in a really hard place deciding what to do and i need some input and opinions from others. So my problem: I just got finished with school. I just started a business/sidehustle as a cutter. So im cutting videos for youtubers. Also i just got very interested in graphics design. My...

I had my MBP 14" for about 2.5 months. Today arrived my new MBA M2, instantly noticed the stronger hinges and more sturdiness feeling compared to the MBP 14". It's me or is a placebo effect?

I am planning to upgrade from my personal MacBook Pro 2011 to MBP 14" model. As a developer, I am not interested in MBP 13 or MBA. So, 1) When can we expect MacBook Pro 14" with M2 Pro processor? Can we get this year itself? 2) Will it use 5nm as M2 or advanced 3nm process? As I use MBP for...

After many, many months of delaying replacing my mid-2015 MPB in light of new product announcements, it is time. At this point in time, the MBP is overkill, as I use it mainly for remote work via Logmein connected to an office Windows system. My only concern with a MBA is whether I would have...

I am an engineering student and I need a new MacBook Pro. If I buy the M1 Pro now, it will arrive by the first week of august (I live in Spain and there is no stock anywhere because of the supply chain crisis), just in time for the next academic year. (MBP 14", 8 14 16, 16GB, 1 TB) If Apple...

Hi! I'm currently using a 2017 27" iMac for software development, and I'm thinking of buying a new Macbook (m1pro 32gb 1TB). Like many people, I'm having a hard time between 14" and 16". In my situation it's too hard to decision. - 16" is quite heavy, but I'll probably use it 95-98% of...

Hey all, I searched the forum and could not find an answer to this question. I currently have a2019 MBP 16” i9 1tb 16gb. I am going to be starting online iOS programming courses this fall at UC San Diego online. I feel like the MBP is starting to get sluggish And I really want to upgrade...
