Apple Store For Mac Pro 2010: Compare Prices and Features with Newer Models



The High Sierra beta 5 (17A330h) release has the firmware update for the Mac Pro (MacPro5,1) that allows booting from APFS volumes. I just updated my Mac Pro (Mid 2010) and it can now boot from an APFS volume. I had to install beta 5 using the full (5.18 GB) installer. Updating from beta 4 to beta 5 via software updates didn't install the required firmware update.


Fortunately, firmware flashing does not require updating in a particular order. I went from 138.0.0.0.0 to 144.0.0.0.0 without any problems. There's several avenues for this, including the Mac App store, but when I used the Mac App Store route, I didn't get the combined OS installer (The Mojave installer + all the updates to Mojave). The easiest way to obtain the final combined update for Mojave is to use Dosdude1's installer. Much like before, download the OS DosDude1's installer, even though we have supported hardware but with the patcher for 10.14.

Clarification: You do not need to use the DosDude1 installer, as you can grab the update via the App store or other sources but I found this easier. Apparently this link was posted this on MacRumors and a few posters didn't read the full instructions and suggested that I was advocating using DOSdude1 on the OS. I am not. The Mac Pro 4,1/5.1 does not need DOSDude1, so do not run the patcher on Mojave. The Patcher just happens to be extremely reliable about fetching the correct version, and skips the hassle of the App Store.


Your MacBook Pro could be worth as much as $1510, depending on a variety of factors including the specific model you have, processor specs, storage size, condition, and whether you want store credit or cash.

To start your MacBook battery replacement with Apple, head to Apple's Mac Service and Repair website and click Start a service request. If there are no Apple stores nearby, the website will suggest authorized third parties who can perform the work instead. These technicians undergo the same training as Apple's, and provide the same guarantees.


Much of the time, you can buy kits that provide everything you need to replace your Mac's battery. These come at roughly half the price Apple will charge you for the service. One such retailer is iFixit, which also provides text and video guides on everything from simple fixes to complex teardowns. For example, at the time of writing, you'll find a kit to replace 13-inch MacBook Air models from 2010-2017 for $79.99.
