What do you mean by "swapping"? edit: also I plug the mbp into a monitor when I code. you're def right about the res being small. KidDynamite fucked around with this message at 14:43 on Jul 21, 2011 |

Is there any reason why my p key wouldn't repeat when held down on my 13" MBP?

I have no idea every key but p repeats when held down. So I think it might be the p key is hosed.

DEUCE SLUICE posted:Thunderbolt is going to replace FW and ethernet on all Apple portables at the next refresh, and the optical drive will go as well. The 13" Pro goes away while the 15" and 17" become airs. Book it. Plus retina displays everywhere!

Just wondering will this ram work in a 2011 13" mbp? This is the ram from the deal Bob Morales posted last week. Either way I'm purchasing new ram today just need to know which to get.

Is there a "best" SSD to get for a 2011 13" mbp? I think I want to do that upgrade next after I get the RAM. 8gigs ram and an SSD sounds way too sexy. Also are there any foreseeable problems with sleep and what not running an SSD?

Does anyone know if the 4 gigs OEM ram that came in my 2011 13" mbp would work in a c2d 13" from mid 2009? I just got my 8gigs today and have nothing to do with the old ram besides give it to a friend. Edit: Also 8 gigs of ram owns bones.

Is there any reason this thing is using swap at all? I have 8gigs of ram.

fleshweasel posted:Yeah the reason it's using swap even though you have free ram is stop sperging in activity monitor and get some work done already. The reason I'm "spergng" is I want to get an SSD soon and doesn't swap decrease an SSD's life?

Why not just get the i7 13" MBA? It's only $100 more and is probably quicker because of the SSD.

Apple uses torx screws on their internals, correct? Just asking because I'm going to pick up tools for my SSD installation.

stock 13 inch should be 1400+tax if you get the SSD yourself and have a microcenter nearby.

I'm getting noticeable slow down on my 2011 13" MBP when it's on for more than a week. I have 8 gigs of ram with usualy about 3 free it just chugs for some reason(chrome takes forever to load pages, xcode beachballs compiling simple programs, itunes has a 3 second delay in responding to clicks). Stock everything else except for the ram. It's back to it's zippy self after a restart but it's pretty annoying and I don't feel it should be happening at all. Any ideas?

movax posted:Sounds like a classic memory leak of some sort...or unusually high amounts of disk activity. There are no SMART errors logged for your HDD, are there? What's disk activity look like in Activity Monitor during these slowdowns? Nope no SMART errors. I haven't thought to look at Activity Monitor during them. I will in the future. Most likely it's what Bob Morales said. drat 3rd party browsers.

Is there any reason my brand new MacBook Air won't sleep with the lid open? Twice now I've come back to it dead after work because I forgot to close the lid and both those times I've had to go to school without my laptop to take notes. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is it bad for me to use my macbook air to transfer pictures(in raw and jpg) from my SDHC card to my External HD? I notice that I have to "securely" delete everything and it takes a long time to do so for 16 GB worth of pictures. Is that affecting my SSD life?

Choadmaster posted:Why do you have to securely delete everything? If there isn't some security reason for it, just reformat the card in-camera when you're done (every pro photographer I know reformats rather than just erasing the files. It ensures a clean slate and minimizes potential for camera write errors). I hadn't thought of just reformatting.

Can someone help me explain to a stupid person why the MBPTNG is priced well? This idiot is arguing that when they introduced retina to the iPhone and iPad they didn't increase price so why should they get away with it here.

My MacBook Air 13" from January is getting like 3 hours battery life just browsing in chrome and IRC chatting in textual with sparrow open for emails. Is this ok or should I take it in to get looked at? That battery life is very disheartening as the semester is starting back up and I will be at school for 5+ hours(actual in class time) 3 days out of the week.
