We are running SQL Server 2014 on a macbook pro retina late 2014 model. It works for everyone else, but when I try and attach a database, or even go to the help>about, the window size is scrunched and doesn't display properly. I can resize the window and see the wizard, but it is up the the left and is very wrong. Has anyone ever had issues with that? |

You could try installing the latest hotfix for SQL Server 2014. These should be installed on the database server as well as on the client machines.Tara KizerSQL Server MVP since 2007http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/tarad/ |

We installed the latest hotfix on my machine, not on the database server. |

The database server won't matter in this case since it's a client machine issue. I think you are going to be out of luck for this. You could try opening a support case with Microsoft, but the use of a macbook might not get you anywhere. Or does Microsoft now provide a macbook version of the SQL tools? I'm out of the loop if they do.Tara KizerSQL Server MVP since 2007http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/tarad/ |

That is what I'm afraid of. The weird thing is that it works fine on all our other machines, but for some reason, this one has issues. We have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, repairing the installation, upgrading to the latest hotfix, changing the screen resolution.. I'm running out of ideas to try.Here are the pics too for others to view: |

I would just use the T-SQL command instead of the GUI to attach the database. Script it out once from the GUI and then use that script going forward.Tara KizerSQL Server MVP since 2007http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/tarad/ |
