2016 macbook pro

All, I own a iPhoneX, a 9.7 Ipad Pro, Ipad Mini 3 and a 2016 MBP. My contacts on the Iphone (used the most) and the Ipad Pro are properly synced with about 88 contacts. The Mini and MBP have about 35 contacts. All devices are on the same Apple account. Any ideas why I can't sync between all 4...

It seems people from around the world are experiencing a plethora of hardware faults with these new MBP's. This is not a troll post but a post from someone who is incredibly frustrated about the way Apple is handling or not handling these faults and is failing to even acknowledge that they are...

I have a 2016 MBP with Windows 10 installed via Bootcamp. When i start up it normally boots straight into macOS and if i want to go into windows i just hold down the option button when turning on. HOWEVER, i have turned it on this morning to find it boots straight into windows and holding the...

Hi all I Just took advantage of a massive discount on a 2016 tb mbp 13” base spec model (-30%) and after a bit of reading, I am realizing that the keyboard problems might be a dealbreaker (I’ve tried it and I don’t dislike it, my concerns are mostly about reliability) Basically I was initially...

Since upgrading to macOS High Sierra 10.13, I've been having an issue with my late 2016 15" MacBook Pro (Radeon Pro 455 graphic card). The problem is still there on High Sierra 10.13.1 Beta 1. I'm using it connected to an Asus MX27UC 4K USB-C display. After waking up the MBP from sleep, the...

Since upgrading to macOS High Sierra 10.13, I've been having an issue with my late 2016 15" MacBook Pro (Radeon Pro 455 graphic card). I'm using it connected to an Asus MX27UC 4K USB-C display. After waking up the MBP from sleep, the external screen picture will not stay on. It will lose sync...

I purchased a 2016 MBP yesterday at Fry's Electronics on sale for $1000 but wondering if it's worth the extra few hundred dollars to return/exchange for the 2017. Coming off a 2008 Pro even the '16 is a giant upgrade but for only $300 is it worth the 2017? Any advice is much appreciated.

How would you connect a 4K monitor and a 1080 HDMI output only monitor to the current 13 inch no touch bar MBP? The 4K monitor is a DELL P2715Q. Could you connect the 1080 display to the hdmi port of a hub, say the CharJen and then the 4K display directly to the 2nd USB-C port? I've heard these...

I bought my Macbook pro 13inch without the Touchbar on Christmas and since then I had to send my mac in 3 times because of a Keyboard issue (They always replaced the whole keyboard). I don´t know how it happens but after some time, a button will lose it´s tactile response and was hard to press...

Hi, guys. I came across this video and want to buy a akitio pcie box with gtx 1050ti for powering my macbook pro. However, i have few confusions. 1. Based on the official website, https://www.akitio.com/expansion/thunder3-pcie-box, The PCIe (x16) slot accepts half-length, full-height...

Since getting my 15" MBP I've noticed sporadic bluetooth dropouts and I think it occurs more often with the # of devices connected. For instance my Magic 2 Keyboard will randomly get stuck typing or my Magic 2 TrackPad will stop responding and my AirPods can't stay connected for more than a few...

I asked this in my 2016 MacBook Pro thread, but no answers. So I'll try here: USB C- Since owning a new 2016 MacBook Pro (see sig), I've ordered two different sets of USB A to USB C cables from Amazon (Link 1, Link 2). Neither one of them will power an external portable HD which has a USB A...

My late-2011 MBP (1TB drive/16GB ram/2.4ghz) finally died on me last month and now I'm looking at a replacement. I know the on-paper specs, I know about the keyboard, trackpad, ports, screen and speaker differences. In deciding between a 13" maxed out 2015 and a maxed out 2016 without touchbar...

Hi all, I have a 2016 15" MBP with 16GB RAM and the 460 dGPU and average about 4-5 hours battery life per charge. To cut to the chase, my average battery draw is always higher than 15w+ on light usage, refer to the screenshot. Does anyone else experience this behaviour? And furthermore...

I looked around for an existing thread, but did not locate one. If there is one, please send me a link and I'll ask that this thread be combined. I've got another thread floating around here where I complain about the cost of new Macs. ;) I've had my 2016 MBP 13" for several weeks now and...

My MBP has static noise/crackling sound near the left speaker during startup. It's only audible when I put my ear next to the keyboard. And it only happens after I login with my password, when the loading bar is about to reach 50%. (I have Filevault turned on and its running 10.2.2 if that...

I switched between 3 different configurations of the 2016 Macbook Pro, both non-touch bar and touch bar models. All three of the Macbooks made a somewhat quiet noise when opened, sometimes when closed. It sometimes sounds like a click, but other times it's a bit louder and sounds like a sticky...

Hellooo, Is anyone else battery conscious when it comes to their tech? e.g. phones? laptops etc? When would you recommend charging your MacBook Pro 2016? - When it's died and do a full battery cycle? - Charge when using it? - or charge little and often? What would you recommend? Or what do...

My new 2016 MacBook Pro 15" with touch bar makes a metallic vibration sound when I tap firmly on the chassis. It even makes the sound sometimes when I am angrily typing. There's nothing moving about inside when I move the laptop from side to side. I made a short video of the sound here. Would...

There is something very frustrating about this new trackpad. I already turned off the "look up" feature because it was driving me nuts. Now, there are times when I literally can't click on things and click/drag (enlarging a window, etc.) is often impossible. I could very well be doing something...
