Starting with the 2016 MacBook Pro, all new Macs were shipped without a startup chime, with the Macs silently booting when powered on. [7] The startup chime would later be added to these models (and all subsequent models since) with the release of macOS Big Sur in 2020, which can be enabled or disabled in System Preferences. [19]

Newer Xserve and Mac Pro machines will run a 64-bit kernel by default; newer iMac and MacBook Pro machines can run a 64-bit kernel, but will not do so by default. [44] Users wishing to use the 64-bit kernel on those machines must hold down the numbers 6 and 4 on the keyboard while booting to get the 64-bit kernel to load.
The M1 Pro and M1 Max have a 16-core and 32-core GPU, and a 256-bit and 512-bit LPDDR5 memory bus supporting 200 and 400 GB/s bandwidth respectively. [20] Both chips were first introduced in the MacBook Pro in October 2021.
In many cases programs may appear to be hung, but are making slow progress, and waiting a few minutes will allow the task to complete. Modern operating systems provide a mechanism for terminating hung processes, for instance, with the Unix kill command, or through a graphical means such as the Task Manager's "end task" button in Windows (select the particular process in the list and press "end ...
In 2005, it switched again to Intel 32-bit and 64-bit x86. In 2011, Mac OS X Lion dropped support for Macs with 32-bit processors; in 2019, macOS Catalina dropped support for 32-bit Intel apps. Supported 64-bit Intel systems can still boot the latest versions of macOS as of January 2025.
The 2019 MacBook Pro was the final model that could run macOS Mojave 10.14, which is the final macOS version that can run 32-bit applications such as Microsoft Office for Mac 2011. A report by AppleInsider claimed that the updated "Butterfly" keyboard fails twice as often as previous models, often due to particles stuck beneath the keys. [103]
3. 1 2 32-bit (but not 64-bit) PowerPC applications were supported on Intel processors with Rosetta. 4. ↑ 64-bit Intel applications are supported on Apple silicon Macs with Rosetta 2 . However, Intel-based Macs are unable to run ARM-based applications, such as iOS and iPadOS apps.
