Kernel Panic with AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement on Macbook Pro Retina 15

Hello,
I'm getting Kernel Panic with grey "Death Screen". This happends 5 times. On 5-th of January (3 times) and on 8-th (2 times).
All the cases according to Consol reports have similar symphtoms:
panic(cpu 2 caller 0xffffff802aeb7e75): Kernel trap at 0xffffff7face2557e, type 13=general protection, registers:
Kernel Extensions in backtrace:
com.apple.driver.AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement(196.0)[F79878E3-8CF9-3ACF-B578-2CE 754CA61F8]@0xffffff7face0e000->0xffffff7face36fff
This line (besides many others) is different in reports
BSD process name corresponding to current thread: WindowServer (2 times)
And other one quicklookd, WebProcess and Web Service.
I sent all reports to Apple Support as MAC OS asked me about. BTW I can publish them again here.
Firstly, may be it's possible to figure out the reason of panics: Is this the SW or HW problem?
Guys at service told me to bring Macbook AS IS. But if this is the SW problem I can clean / reinstall OS etc. myself.
And (after cleaning and/or reinstalling) if the problem is in HW I'll be getting panics again. So I can bring to service Macbook with new history of panics.
So what is the probability of HW problem in such a case. When all reports point to the same .kext file.
Thank You in advance.
Cheers,
Victor
P.S.: Computer is new, I didn't change configuration, OS etc.
Installed programs under question: m3tag (Tag Editor - recompiled by somebody from WIndows program with some similar to CrossOver env.)
Adobe FlashPlayer Plugin

Thanks for reply.
Exactly - MP3Tag Wineskin port. I also think that here is the reason. This port is up-to-date (10.8.2 compatible) but very inacurate - I found  many garbage in MP3Tag package.  And the original Windows program is very old - 1984(?).
I removed this program from computer and I have to get a try for some period of time.

  • Multiple kernel panics & black screen on Macbook Pro Retina early 2013

    My Macbook Pro Retina (early 2013, 8GB ram, 250 GB hard drive) has been experiencing multiple kernel panics forcing rapid-fire restarts of the computer multiple times within a very short time frame. This is followed by the screen staying black even if the computer is on (keyboard lit up, can hear volume buttons) but nothing is on the screen. Once the screen goes black, I have to employ some combination of manually shutting it down (by holding down the power button) and then turning it back on (+/- doing an SMC reset) to get the screen working again. I also tried a PRAM reset once, but it didn't seem to have any effect, and I've repaired the disk permissions. 
    This issue has happened multiple times in the past week. It seems to vary as to how long it takes to happen again (could be a few days, could be less than an hour), and it has happened during multiple different activities (surfing the web, using Word, using Mail). I have experienced this both on Mavericks and after updating to Yosemite over the weekend.
    I took it to the Apple Store on Saturday and while the Genius saw that the screen was black when I initially brought it in (even though the computer was on), we couldn't recreate the issue and the diagnostic tests he ran showed nothing. It even started back up fine for him. I thought I was OK, until I had another round of kernel panics + black screen this afternoon. At this point, doing a normal restart of the machine results in a kernel panic before it even makes it off of the loading screen and then a black screen.
    This time, I checked the logs and saw the panic report included below. I don't know enough about this to understand what it means, but hopefully someone else does! Some internet searching has suggested that it might be a problem with the GPU (and the log below says GPU panic). Help, please!

  • Kernel Panics with Brand New Macbook Pro

    Hey guys,
    I've experience two kernel panics since purchasing my Brand new MBP three days ago. I really just want the problem to end, this is a new piece of equipment, it should function perfectly. At the time of the panic I had a Lacie 1TB USB HD plugged directly into the computer, a 4 port usb hub on which a USB keyboard and thumb drive and mouse were plugged in. I was running Transmission, Safari, iTunes and simplify Media. I opened my system prefs to edit my geektool arrangements and the panic happened.

    Both panics have been reported to Apple promptly after they happened. Any help is really appreciated. As I said before, I just really want my computer to work with no issue. The thing's brand new!
    Also: since the panic I have moved the usb keyboard from the hub to a port directly on the computer.
    Thanks for your help!

    Remove all the external devices you have connected. If any of the USB peripherals required installing software such as drivers, then you should uninstall the software as well as disconnecting the device to prevent panics. If no kernel panics occur after using the computer this way, then the problem is related to one or more of the peripherals you are using. Based on the panic log information the likely candidates are one or more of the USB devices you are using.

  • I am going to replace my 3 year old MacBook Pro with a new MacBook Pro Retina display machine.  I have been told by Apple that I can use the Migration Assistant ON MY WIRELESS NETWORK (no cables) to transfer data... I've read this can take AGES.. True?

    I am planning to replace my 3+ year old MacBook Pro with a new MacBook Pro, Retina display... I have been told by "chat" on the Apple site that I can transfer my data wirelessly... on my network.. Is is a good option?  I don't want to invest in cables if I can help it... since the old machine has firewire and the new one has thunderbolt!  Will the wireless transfer take forever... as in 30-50 hours???  I've been hearing these horror stories...

  • Kernel Panic Issue - mid 2010 MacBook Pro

    I need some help with this kernel panic situation I'm experiencing. The number of panics have progressively gotten worse in the past couple months, and had increased to a panic about every half hour.
    Today I went to see the Apple Geniuses and they did a complete erase of my hard drive and reinstall of OSx 10.6.8. I have yet to add any new programs since thehard drive wipe. I was actually trying to download Adobe CS6 dmg when my computer had a kernel panic and forced me to shutdown. (I was also running Safari when that happened.)
    I was assured by the Apple Genius (on this visit and the one a couple months ago) that there is nothing wrong with any of my hardware. My machine has also passed every hardware test I've done. We thought the initial kernel panic situation was due to 3rd party software from X-rite (Color Munki) as that showed up on my reports.
    I don't know what the problem is now since my machine has been wiped.
    Can anyone here please help?
    Here's my panic report:

    Thanks for the quick reply Carolyn! I appreciate the help.
    The Apple Genius ran a full diagnostic of my hardware today. I ran the Apple Hardware Test a couple days ago. Everything says hardware is not the issue. I'm really not sure what is happening since it keeps passing multiple hardware tests and there are no 3rd party software additions. I have read of other people having OSx kernel panics with 10.6.8.
    I did update software that Apple recommended when I turned my computer on -- Safety Update and Java. Other than that, I haven't added any other software since my hard drive wipe (since my CS6 wouldn't complete before the kernel panic).

  • New problem with display on Macbook Pro retina (Samsung panel)

    Hello All,
    I am a very new people on your forum but a few weeks ago i bought a new macbook pro retina with samsung panel.
    I haven't ghosting effect on my macbook but i have a new and really bad problem.
    I try to found a some information on Russians forums but nobody can help me with it.
    I can see an artifacts in the form of flashing pixels on all display.
    It occurs in 20-30 minutes after the start of work.
    Today i try to test it on game Dirt 2 and i can see defects after 2 minutes after start. So i think it can be reason with Geforce 650 but when i back to desktop and use HD 4000 i still see a problem.
    This is best seen on a black screen with high backlight.
    When i try to connect TV via HDMI i can't see any problem in my TV.
    So i really don't know what could be the reason.
    I attached the video with issue to video hosting
    http://vimple.ru/579f880e8b7045e09f8fc5bc097c5e2b
    Also i have a many software problem like Crashing safari and iTunes. It can be a few times per day.
    I really disappointed with my new Macbook.
    I haven't any problem with old 2009 Macbook pro with Snow Leopard but Mountain Lion is not working well.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
    Regards
    TD

  • Keep getting kernel panics on new i7 MacBook Pro

    This is really bugging me, I got the new i7 MBP last Thursday and since then I've had four kernel panics.
    Checking console > system diagnostic reports > Kernel_yyyy-mm-dd the backtrace for each ends at the following:
    +Backtrace continues...+

    Has anyone else been having kernel panics with the i7s?
    Any suggestions on what it could be or what I should do?
    From the looks of it it has something to do with the graphics card, maybe the auto switching feature.
    Thanks in advance.

    Anyway, I contacted support and they say this is the first they've heard of a problem like this and want me to do an archive & install, then an erase & install.
    I am loathe to do either of those as I spent three days moving data over and installing my apps. Plus the fact that I got my first KP early on leads me to believe it's not a software issue and I'll wind up just going through all that to get to the ole switcheroo with Apple anyways.
    Ummm, no one here can speak for Apple, but I strongly suspect they're going to want to do that before calling it a hardware problem. And after some period of time, it's quite probably going to be a repair instead of a possible replacement at this time. Not sure how that sits with you . . . .
    Also, if you're confident of your installations (OS and added software), simply do a clone to an external HD (using SuperDuper, CarbonCopyCloner, or similar), do the A&I and/or E&I, then you'll know if it's soft/hardware, and then you can decide if you want to clone the exact same OS/software back to the MBP.

  • Frequent Kernel Panic on Early '08 MacBook Pro

    Hey, everyone. I understand that this is a fairly common subject these days, so I'll jump right into it: My MacBook Pro (early 2008) repeatedly has kernel panics that force me to shut down my computer manually (the button in the top right hand corner). This was not a problem in Snow Leopord. Also, I've had Lion installed since its release and this has just now started happening, and frequently too; it occurs every hour or so. Another important note I should add is that my logic board was diagnosed as kaputt roughly three months ago. The laptop ran fine until now. Here's the log I receive on start-up each time a panic occurs:

    Any chance anyone can read into this and tell me how to best remedy the situation? I'd really like to not have to buy a new computer, especially until next fall or perhaps this summer.

    From Wikipedia: A logic board is the Apple equivalent of a motherboard. […]
    From Dictionary.app (NOAD):

    Your "logic board was diagnosed as kaputt roughly three months ago". So, you are using a computer whose main module (which includes the CPU) has been broken, useless, and no longer working for three months. If that doesn't qualify as a miracle, I don't know what does.

  • Hi! I have a kernel panic problem on my macbook pro! Please help me!!!

    Hi! At the Apple store they changed my harddisk twice, but they didn't solve my problem.. Every time I try to install applications or to update the software, the kernel panic message appears (you need to restart your computer..etc) and I don't know what to do! I have already sent the signal to apple and verified permissions and when I did the hardware test, it appeared that i have a 4MEM/1/40000000:0xa9facf98 error...
    this is the problem when I restart my computer:

    PLEASE HELP ME!!

    The Hardware Test detected a RAM problem.  Take out the chips and make certain that the connections are clean and reinstall them.  Make certain that they are well seated. 
    If the problem occurs again, test with one chip at a time.  Also swap bays if necessary.
    Please indicate if you have installed new RAM and if so what brand and the specifications.
    Ciao.

  • Kernel panic and now my MacBook Pro won't boot

    My MacBook Pro had been acting a little strange for a while - sometimes applications like Final Cut Express and iTunes would "unexpectedly quit" when I tried to open them and wouldn't work until after a restart. Now, the screen went dim and I got the "you need to restart your computer" message. I did, and it worked for a few minutes, and did it again. Now all it does when I turn it on is chimes, shows the Apple logo as if it is going to start up, and then dies. It is the original Core Duo one so it's out of warranty. Is this the logic board? If not is there any hope of it working again?

    Kernel panics are usually cause by hardware problems. Disconnect all devices from your computer & check out the following KB Article & User Tip:

  • What controller do I use with my 15" Macbook Pro Retina to play games like the Lego Star Wars series?

    I have a bright and shining new 15" Macbook Pro with Retina display. I did not upgrade the processor or the storage. I want to play games on this great computer, too, games that need a controller . . ie . . The Lego Star Wars series and other action games that require a controller like I use on my X Box 360.
    What works? What works best?

    It would help to post this in a more proper form. This is for the iTunes family of stores.

  • Is the SSD in the 15" MacBook Pro Retina compatible with the 13" MacBook Pro Retina?

    A friend upgraded his Retina MacBook Pro 15" from 256GB to an OWC 480GB SSD.  He was going to sell me the 256GB SSD he pulled out of his rMBP.  I was thinking of buying the base 13" rMBP and installing that 256GB SSD from the 15" rMBP.  Will that work or are they not compatible.  Eyeballing it, they look to be exactly the same size so physically it would fit but not sure if they are not compatible for other reasons.

    none of what you mentioned - use a damp micro fibre cloth to wipe your macbook retina.
    make sure it's damp and not wet.
    using a wet cloth can cause some drips between the keys that might create an issue - so make sure it's just damp.

  • Problems with FPS on Macbook Pro Retina while playing WoW

    Hi,
    So, just a few days ago, I could play World of Warcraft on a highly populated server with around 30 FPS at all times on ultra graphics. All of a sudden, when I logged in last night, I got between 5-8 FPS if I was lucky, and had to turn my graphics down to fair or even low to get around the same FPS or better as before. Do you guys think this could be software or hardware? I don't really care about not playing the game with full graphics, but is instead worried if there could be something wrong with the machine itself.
    Cheers
    Running 10.8. Higher MBP Retina model with 512 GB flash standard and 16GB of added RAM.

    There are several threads on this on Blizzard website. You need to do an SMC reset (this worked for me): http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964

  • Sleep/wake Issues With Late 2013 Macbook Pro Retina 13"

    Dear Apple Community,
    I have been recently having issues with the sleep/wake cycle of my laptop. Every time my laptop goes to sleep and I try to wake it up it gets stuck on a blank screen for 3 mins before returning to normal functionality. I have tried deleting the sleep image files and the laptop functions fine for a day and then back to the same issues. I have 3 sleep image files, 2 of them are 1.07gb each and the other one is 64mg. I have deleted them many times and they just come back with the same issues. Any help here would be appreciated. Thank You

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    Paste into the window of another application.
    Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it.

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
    11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start Time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.
