Anyone else having trouble with the new MBP?

I posted my woes a couple days ago in the s4 section but it looks like my problems aren’t isolated to that. My kontrol x1, maschine, and audio 8 dj are all having issues. Drivers are all updated and the devices just choose to work at random. Anyone else experiencing issues?

seems to be widespread. Sorry to hear your having problems.
someone else was having issues with the USB on here.

I had a problem with the Maschine, I tried all of that and it didn’t work. Then I went to the Apple store, the “Genius” over there did the same exact thing and apparently he is a genius cause after he updated my Maschine software fully it started working like normal again.

Is this the right link? This goes to a discussion for the 17" freezing. Mines with the 15" and the USB seems to be dicey

you SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT A MAC. such a superior and impervious to fault computer.

oh wait…

Would it be possible that having Snow Leopard run in 64 bit may be causing the issues.

its the new 2011 macbook pros

im so glad i kept my 2010 macbook pro 13 inch, it works like a tank, fully bloated, never optimized, never turned off, bluetooth and wifi on, yet never crashed on me even once :slight_smile:

I never buy first gen of anything, macbooks, iphones, controllers, anything

Never. Let them iron out tiny glitches first, which there always always are with first gen stuff.

Not helpful advice now for OP i appreciate but worth noting for the future :slight_smile:

Oh dear, I have one sitting here in the bag, unopened. I may well return…

Firstly if it’s a huge problem i’m sure apple will do somethin about damage control. You guys should be fine. Mine didn’t have a problem, it was all cause I didn’t trouble shoot correctly.

Thing about the Macs now is they all run programs and such at the bit rate that they are optimized for. For example Maschine’s software runs at 32 bit but most of my other programs that I run are at 64 bit so when I open the application viewer thing it shows almost all my other programs running at 64 bit while Maschine’s software is still going at 32 bit.

So I just laid into my MBP, opened firefox,safari, iphoto, imovie, iweb, ableton, kore, quicktime, photobooth, itunes, photoshop, and skype and I haven’t had any lock up. My problem seems to be with the USB and yet not one else has reported any issues with their usb? Curses

I got a new 13inch and have not had any issues.

16

Couldnt agree more
