MacBook Pro 2010, 15" Freezes for 20-30sec every now and then

Hi there,
I recently got my MBP Mid-2010 with a Core i5, 4GB RAM and the BTO 500GB 7200rpm HDD.
From time to time the current application freezes, spinning beachball - using app switch I can still switch to another application but 1-2 seconds later this will also freeze.
I also checked the System Console for information: nothing in there around the particular time.
Had Activity Monitor running for some time and every time this happened the HDD activity was 0.
I used disk utility to repair permissions, switched power saving for HDDs off in Enery Settings - that seemed to help for some time but the issue keeps staying around. I also did PRAM-reset, SMC-reset, re-install Snow Leopard, installed all the latest updates.
I called Apple they only told me to get to an AASP, I'm just not in the mood of "repairing" a device only two weeks old.
A friend of mine encountered similar problems on his MBP-2009 a while ago and one day it would not boot up again. He had to go to an AASP to get his HDD replaced.
What do y'all think about this problem? Any advice?
Cheers,
matiam

I ran the short and long hardware tests this afternoon and nothing came up. So there's no detectable hardware defect.
At the moment I don't suspect the drive. Today I've been running iostat in a terminal the whole day and I see no change in disk activity (or system load or anything else for that matter) when the freeze occurs. iostat keeps reporting the same numbers the whole time. Maybe it's something on the mainboard or a driver/OS X issue. Or an interrupt issue since everything that I did during the freeze gets done instantly after the systems starts responding again.
Monday I'm going to call Apple to report all of this. Since Apple Support only heard of this issue from you I expect I'm going to get a replacement MacBook Pro. But I suspect that there's a good chance I'll be getting another model with same issue.
A friend of mine has ordered the same configuration as I have at the same time. She hasn't experienced any problems so far. She's going to pay close attention to her MacBook tomorrow when she boots it in the morning. And in a couple of days we're going to test them side by side. I'll keep you posted.
Greets,
Kick

    didnt help!
    It happened again!
    here is the crash report.....seems like com.apple.NVDAResman and the IOPCI and graphics are the cause which points me towards graphics again.
    What do you guys think? Any experts?

    Hi guys.
    I've had my MacBook Pro for 2 years now. Last night it suddenly kept glitching to a dark grey screen every now and then, then it would flash yellow / blue spots, and now it won't go past the grey screen even when I reboot it.
    I don't think I can access my disk anymore as I've moved across countries since I've first gotten my laptop.  it was working perfectly fine before  it kept going to the dark grey screen with a little blue on the bottom.
    If it helps, my camera light is still on, and it seems that my computer is working properly itself, but won't go past this grey screen.
    I'm a college student and am really panicking about this - can anyone please tell me what to do?
    Thank you & sorry for the long post.

    What operating system are you running on it? (iOS 5.1 is for iPhone, iPad...not a Mac).

  • Can't figure out why webcam video freezes (pauses) every now and then

    I have created a small application to grab the video stream from a webcam that seems to work very well. But, every now and then the video pauses for no apparent reason. Any ideas why it might be doing this? I am using an undecorated JFrame for the app and there is an option in the program to dynamically change the window opacity using AWTUtilities.setWindowOpacity().

    In that case, that's different. I thought you were complaining because it'd freeze for a moment or two and then keep going ;-)
    Ummmmm, I'd guess that maaaaybe changing the opacity is affecting the validate() status of the pane? Like the following post:
    [http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10504851#10504851]
    How are you displaying the video? Just using a player, or what?

  • Freezing and then blue screen every now and then

    I have just bought a iMac G5 with iSight and every now and then the machine will freeze for 2-10 seconds, then go to a blue screen. Audio is only affected when it freezes and all background tasks seem to run without issue. The blue screen can stay up for about anywhere between 3 to 40 seconds.
    Anyone seen this or have any idea?

    HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
    Good time to check the startup disk for errors.
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger and later) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
    Select your start up disk and click Restart
    While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window where you see Capacity and Available. *Make sure there is always 10% free disk space.*
    If you cannot boot from your install disk, try booting in Safe Mode
    What is Safe Mode

  • Iphone 3gs freezes and reboots itself every now and then

    Hi, I have an iPhone 3GS with latest firmware 5.0.1 and sometimes it just freezes and reboots itself. I tried to restore it as new, from backup, I upgraded firmwares but still every now and then it just reboots itself. Often when I start the phone in the morning it reboots several times in a row. Are the latest firmwares buggy or what? Please help!

    I found solution on this forum.  He said the problem solved by reset all setting -> as new phone.  (Don't worry, data is preserved).  This works for me so far.. keep my finger cross.

  • Where can i get the macbook pro (2010) bootcamp drivers for windows 7?

    I recently decided to install windows 7 ultimate (32-bit) on my macbook pro (2010 model). However my macbook did not come with installation disks, i know this for a fact and it came pre installed with 10.6. And when i try to download the windows support files through bootcamp assistant, it says that the download cannot continue. So where can i get these drivers from?

    All MBP's with Snow Leopard (10.6) came with an installaton disc, and that is where the drivers are, if you don't have (or didn't get) the disc contact Apple for a replacement, there is no downloadable version of BC3

  • Macbook Pro 2010 keeps freezing and restarting

  • My 13" macbook pro 2012 freezes totally every now and then

    I bought my mac aproximately 1 year ago, and now it has started to act wierd. After using it in like 5 minutes, parts of the screen suddenly flashes green and proceed to a status of freezing. i can't move the mouse or do any kind of type-commands. the only thing that helps is to hold down the powerbutton until it turns off. when i have started it again it does the same thing over again. Do anyone know of this problem, and maybe have a solution, or just an idea of how to solve this problem? please help me :/
    - right after buying it i changed the RAM to 8 gigabyte, but haven't had any trouble with it.
    and also sorry for my - probably - not so good english

    I ran the short and long hardware tests this afternoon and nothing came up. So there's no detectable hardware defect.
    At the moment I don't suspect the drive. Today I've been running iostat in a terminal the whole day and I see no change in disk activity (or system load or anything else for that matter) when the freeze occurs. iostat keeps reporting the same numbers the whole time. Maybe it's something on the mainboard or a driver/OS X issue. Or an interrupt issue since everything that I did during the freeze gets done instantly after the systems starts responding again.
    Monday I'm going to call Apple to report all of this. Since Apple Support only heard of this issue from you I expect I'm going to get a replacement MacBook Pro. But I suspect that there's a good chance I'll be getting another model with same issue.
    A friend of mine has ordered the same configuration as I have at the same time. She hasn't experienced any problems so far. She's going to pay close attention to her MacBook tomorrow when she boots it in the morning. And in a couple of days we're going to test them side by side. I'll keep you posted.

  • I was given a 2010 17" MacBook Pro. I want to reset it to new and then migrate only SOME of my data from my older Mac Book Pro to the newer one. How?

    A friend gave me a 17" MacBook Pro used for only one project. (Lucky me) I want to reset/register the laptop as new and need to know how to do that.
    THEN...
    I need to migrate data from my older Macbook Pro to the newer one. I don't want to migrate all of the data. I have been moving data from one computer to another for 15 years and want to move only what is current and what I now need (Good-bye Quark files)--can I do that? How? Also, the older laptop is running Lion. The "new" one is running Leopard. Is that an issue? Do I need to upgrade the newer laptop to Lion first?
    Thanks.

    Install or Reinstall Lion from Scratch
    If possible backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
    Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
    Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Install button.
    Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.
    Unfortunately, Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant are set up to migrate your entire Home folder, third-party applcations and support files, and system preferences. If you use the Setup Assistant that opens the first time you boot Lion after installing, then you should migrate your Home folder, etc. This is the easiest way to do it.
    Once migration is finished you can delete what you don't want.

  • Macbook Pro w/ retina freezes at least once a day, and I'm forced to shut down computer. What could be wrong?

    I've had this macbook since August of last year, so it is still relatively new. For about a month the 'beach ball of death' has frozen my computer at least a couple times a week, which then I am forced to shut down the computer. What could be a reason for the constant freezing??

    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was started. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time after  you had the problem. Select the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V. Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the entire contents of the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post any other kind of report—it will be very long and not helpful.
