2012

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...

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...

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...

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...

Hi! This if my first post so sorry if I'm not abiding by certain guidelines. My Internal Hard Drive was making a clicking sound and was extremely slow to boot up. If I log in, it loads for a while, goes to a black screen for a while, then goes back to the logging on screen. I decided to replace...

Want To Ask i did geekbench test on 2 types of RAMs on my MBP 13" 2.9ghz i7 mid 2012. 1-Crucial 16GB Kit (8GBx2) DDR3L-1600 SODIMM 32bit test 2913 Single-Core Score 6105 Multi-Core Score 64 bit test 3132 Single-Core Score 6754 Multi-Core Score. 2-Kingston HyperX Impact Black...

I am having a rather big problem. I have a iMac 2012 with a fusion hard drive. When I boot up the iMac it plays the chime but then loads straight to OS X Utilities. I am then given the 4 options pictured. I have tried everything. This problem occured when recently (since Monday after I...

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...

Please help! Apparently there are things you can do to get the fan to stop and for it to speed back up. (I don't mine losing all my memory) I have three tests this week and no time!

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. I time machined about three weeks ago, so I can go back to...
