Following the announcement of the brand new line of MacBooks, Apple today revealed a slight update to its MacBook Air and 13-inch Retina. So open the commandline terminal program (search for “terminal” using spotlight). Monday Ma12:05 pm PDT by Mitchel Broussard.
There are multiple ways to do it, I would recommend via the terminal. If that doesn’t help, try deleting the preference files as in the post. * Shutdown and the start your Mac, and before the grey boot screen appears hold down the P, R, option and command keys simultaneously.
If that doesn’t help then try the steps as in the post. I would first try to reset the PRAM to see if that helps. : fixed typo in preference plist filename. You may have to reset your display preferences (resolution) once you login.Startup, immediately press and hold the P and R keys while holding down the option (⌥) and command (⌘) keys before the gray boot screen appears, which resets the PRAM.Delete ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/*.plist.The basic idea: delete some preferences files and reset the PRAM: Scouring forums for answers led me here, which worked for me!. Since the onset was sudden I immediately though: imminent hardware failure! But thankfully that turned out not to be the case. Forcing the graphics card to the discrete NVIDIA GT 650 instead of integrated Intel GPU sped things up, but the overall experience still didn’t feel right.

*The above photos were courtesy of our friends at where they have a wonderful and detailed teardown of the new MacBook Pro.This weekend my Mac suddenly started behaving strangely: moving windows around occurred with a nearly psychodelic delay, mission control (aka exposé) was “jerky”, and scrolling was not fun. The updated MacBook Pros are shipping now and start at $1,299 and with all the trimmings for the computer itself (no additional accessories or software) will run $2,699. With the retina display creative professionals will revel in their in-system performance capabilities with the only question remaining being how much to spend on the larger storage options.

That compares quite favorably to a 2014 generation MacBook Air which topped out at roughly 700MB/s read.įor the power user, the new MacBook Pro clearly brings a lot to the table that the MacBook Air and certainly the MacBook won't be able to achieve. With the new Intel Broadwell-U processors and potentially improved SSD, how does this model compare? We measured transfer speeds with BlackMagic Disk Speed Test coming in at 1,328MB/s read and 627MB/s write on the newest SSD. The question on the minds of potential MacBook Air buyers though is around performance, with substantial claims made by Apple. Photos courtsey of our friends at iFixit.* The NAND are 16GB each totaling 128GB over 8 chips. Should this be done on the new MacBook Pro 13 with Force Touch trackpad (March 9, 2015) I have experienced that just disabling transparency in the Accesibility settings in System Preferences does improve quite a lot the fluidity of the interface. The drive RAM and NAND are also Samsung, marked as K4E4E324ED and K9LDGY8S1D-XCK0 respectively. The controller is a Samsung PCIe 3.0 x4 AHCI Flash controller with the markings S4LN058A01. Photo courtsey of our friends at iFixit.*Īt the component level, we see Apple has opted for Samsung components once again, as they did in many other notebooks including the drive inside our dissection of the MacBook Air (July-2011). It offers a 121.33GB usable capacity as indicated by System Information, as well as TRIM support. Our review model includes the 128GB SSD option aptly named the Apple SSD SM0128G. The storage comes in capacities of 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB depending on the MacBook chosen but it can be configured up to 1TB of PCIe-based flash. The new features include 5 th generation Intel core i5 and i7 processors, the new force track pad, an additional hour of battery life, and of course what is most interesting to us here at StorageReview, Apple claims that the new flash is twice as fast. There were a few other announcements as well including the re-launch of the MacBook (which was discontinued in July of 2011 in favor of the MacBook Air) that is thinner than the MacBook Air. The MacBook comes with Apple’s new butterfly-mechanism keyboard and new force track pad. More of an interest to us was the new MacBook Pro 13” and its new features including a new Samsung SSD inside. Most notably was its new smart watch, the Apple Watch (or colloquially referred to as the iWatch by its fans and detractors alike). A few weeks ago Apple held an event in San Francisco to showcase the new additions to its product line.
