MacBook Pro kernal panic caused by video card

I have a mid 2010 MBP running 10.8.4 since upgrading I have had several kernal panics. I think it is a screen redraw issue. I do have and external monitor but it also happens with it disconnected.
The latest panic log:
Thu Jun 13 16:22:04 2013

Hello Carroll,
I was researching what might be causing the issue you describe here and found a great article for isolating and troubleshooting Kernel Panics named OS X: About kernel panics found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3742.
For OS X Lion and earlier, follow these steps:
Press and hold the Power button for several seconds to turn off your Mac.
Turn on your Mac.
As soon as your Mac starts up, hold down the Shift key to start up with a Safe Boot into Safe Mode. Note: If you are using a third-party external keyboard and cannot start with a Safe Boot, try using an Apple keyboard instead.
If your Mac has another kernel panic starting up, or while in Safe Mode, go to the "Troubleshooting a recurring kernel panic" section below.
If your Mac starts up without a kernel panic after a Safe Boot, restart by choosing Apple menu () > Restart…, then let it start up normally.
Important: If the Mac has another kernel panic within a few weeks, refer to the "Troubleshooting a recurring kernel panic" section below.
Note: If the hardware and software on the Mac checks out as OK, yet recurring kernel panics still occur, it is possible that something on the network is sending the Mac malformed network packets. In these situations, check the devices on the network. Make sure the router's firmware is up-to-date, and that the router is functioning. Refer to the router's manufacturer for service and support.
If the Safe Boot does not resolve the issue then there is a section toward the bottom labeled Troubleshooting a recurring kernel panic that I would recommend using to further isolate and troubleshoot the Kernel Panics.
All the best,
Sterling

  • Does the standard Intel HD Graphics 4000 in the 13 inch Macbook pro stand up to other graphics cards with dedicated memory ( 1GB of memory for instance)?

    Does the standard Intel HD Graphics 4000 in the 13 inch Macbook pro stand up to other graphics cards with dedicated memory ( 1GB of memory for instance)? I need a laptop for college and the Engineering program suggests a dedicated video card with minimum 1GB of video memory.

    I have a Intel HD 4000 in my Mac Mini (late 2012), and it's okay for what I need it.
    However:
    - there were a few issues with flickering on the video output to external monitors. These were solved through a firmware update that came with OSX 10.8.3 - for the majority of the users. There is apparently still a small group of users that still has issues. You can read long threads about this here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4472316?start=0&tstart=0
    and here
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4490924?start=0&tstart=0
    So for most of us (me included) this issue is solved, but it seems that certain displays / monitors don't work well with the intel HD4000, don't know if there is a pattern or a list of monitor models...
    - there was an issue with the color calibration on the HDMI output. No matter how much you tried to calibrate, the results remained unsatisfying. All light colors were crushed to white, wrong contrast, ...
    You can read about this here:

    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4480354?start=0&tstart=0
    The same firmware update improved this a little, good enough for me, but I can imagine it's not good enough if you do graphic work and need reliable colors from your monitor. On HDMI output, the thunderbolt/MDP output is fine. So it's mainly a dual monitor setup issue.
    If it's for graphic work, I'd go for a Mac Book Pro with dedicated GPU !

  • I have a new macbook pro and just made a video on imovie and it asked me to put it on idvd but there is no idvd listed as an option. How can I get idvd?

    I have a new macbook pro and just made a video on imovie and it asked me to put it on idvd but there is no idvd listed as an option. How can i get idvd. it doesn't seem available

    Since Apple has stopped supporting and offering iDVD you'll need to purchase the iLIfe 11 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: iLife 11 which will include iDVD 7.

  • I have just purchased a macbook pro. I downloaded two sd cards, one via lightroom 4 and the other via iPhoto. I can't find the latter card when I try to import via LR4. In fact i can't find it at all unless i open iPhoto. where is it?

    Good Evening, I have just purchased a Macbook Pro, and have downloaded two SD cards of a trip to USA and Canada last September.  One via Lightrooom 4 and the other via iPhoto. I tried to import the SD card via iPhoto into Lightroom 4 but could not find it. I tried to find this "folder"? via other means with no success. however when I open iPhoto, there it is, so it must be on the Hard Drive somwhere??? I am new to Apple having decided to jump ship from Windows. Would be grateful for any help.

    iPhoto is a - like Lightroom - Photo Manager. It's a database. Like any db to get data out you have to export it.
    File -> Export
    and in this case set the Kind to Original.
    iPhoto is a $15 app, LR is somewhat more expensive. As they both want to manage the photos there's no good usage scenario where you use both. Pick one horse and ride, essentially.
    This User Tip
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
    has details of the options in the Export dialogue.

  • Why does my MacBook Pro make background music and video quieter when I am on FaceTime?

    Why does my MacBook Pro make background music and video quieter when I am on FaceTime? When my girlfriend and I are trying to watch a movie on Netflix together while on FaceTime my MacBook Pro always decreases the volume of any background sound on my computer so I can barely hear it. Is there a way to fix this? Thank you!

    Have the same issue too. Apple can you please change this annoying feature. You are making long distance relationships more difficult.
    I like how Facetime was with the old iOS, where nothing was dimmed. OR at least maybe if you could give users the option to turn on or off dimming of facetime.

  • Leopard and Second life on MacBook Pro 2.0 with ATI X1600 card

    Hi,
    I really want to get Leopard but am very hesitant given some of the reports and forums I have read about people having with SL in Leopard.
    I have a 2.0 Macbook Pro with the X1600 Ati Radeon card and 1.5 Gig RAM.
    Right now, SL runs perfectly in Tiger. I love it. Very smooth and fast.
    However, I would like to upgrade to Leopard for some of the new features.
    Has anybody had trouble running Second Life on a MacBook pro with the above specifications, with Leopard installed ? I am also concerned about Photoshop CS continuing to work but will make that another topic.
    Please let know. I really don't want to get all the crashes and freezes some people have been talking about in Leopard with SL and don't want to have to run the different viewers to make it work.
    Thank you !

    Since you use Aperture you must do a lot of photo work. Aperture really makes a lot of system demands so I suspect that you are spending a decent amount of time waiting. Aperture also likes a big screen and lots of RAM.
    Hard drive size should not be that much of an issue. First, you should be moving those photos over to storage media for safe backup. (A smaller drive should make you more religious about doing this, right? LOL) Second, hard drives can be replaced with bigger and better models.
    So, could you use an upgrade? Probably. But, the price seems a bit high at 1700. When buying used, the software included with the system means very little. Don't allow the price to rise because of it. Get some comps off of ebay for similar systems that have sold recently and negotiate. Don't be afraid to make a lower offer and walk away if the seller says no. You have a decent chance that you'll get a call a few days later agreeing to your reasonable offer.
    PS: make sure that ATI Radeon card is a 256 and not a 128.

  • Brand new MacBook Pro can't handle 720p Video in iMovie?

    Well, my Black 2.0 GHz Core Duo MacBook has been replaced by the new 13" 2.26 Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro (I had to pay the difference) and I had it upgraded to 4GB of Ram and a 320GB Hard Drive!
    I use a Kodak z1085 IS Digital Camera that records videos in 720p quality. When I import them into iMovie '09, I get this message:
    This is the same thing that I got on my Core Duo MacBook. If I did not optimize the video, it would play choppy and could not keep up. On my new MacBook Pro, I still get this message saying that "my computer can't handle it." I can undersatnd my old Core Duo MacBook not being able to handle it, but when a brand new $2000 MacBook Pro can't handle 720p video, somthing has to be wrong here.
    Are there cretin specs that indicate what computer can handle what? I'm guessing that this MacBook Pro CAN handle it, but why am I still getting that message? Do I need a $10,000 Mac Pro Tower system to make it happy?
    Can anyone please explain this and help me out?
    Thanks,
    Scott

    +Well... for starters, the 2.26GHz MB Pro is not a $2,000 machine.+
    Sorry...$1.5 thousand. Still too much for a brand machine that isn't "powerful enough" to run software that came out before the computer did.
    +For all intents and purposes, it's an entry level notebook (despite the name "Pro")... with only slightly higher specifications than the white MacBook.+
    So its only slightly better then the model that can only handle solitaire or any other basic application? I find it odd Apple would include iLife if these machines can't handle all of the features that they are supposed to. Pro means professional. that means this machine should be able to handle PRO applications like Final Cut, etc. But how can it if it can't even handle iMovie! Not to mention they screwed us out of using the old version...so I am stuck using this version!
    +I'm not exactly sure what you mean when you say your black MacBook was replaced by a new 2.26GHz machine... but you had to pay the difference... It sounds like you were perhaps having problems with your MacBook and Apple allowed you to upgrade to the newest version paying something additional. If that's the case, it sounds like they were very generous as you had a first gen MacBook that was about three years old.+
    Yes that is exactly what happened. My Black MacBook had many issues. I sent it in for repair three times and even took it to an Apple store when I was on vacation. (don't have any apple stores where I live) All of these repairs did not fix the problems and they kept on coming! So they offered to just replace it. But they don't sell the Black MacBook anymore. Only the white...and I don't like the white (thats why I bought the black!) so that is when they offered me the MacBook Pro if I paid the difference. In which I did. So that is how I got my new MacBook Pro.
    +Are you saying that your video plays choppy on your new machine... or just that you get the message stating that it may play poorly?+
    Both....It shows that message, and does play somewhat choppy. Not as choppy as the old MacBook though.
    Like I said, I'd just like to know what Apple calls "good enough" so it doesn't display that warning.

    Hi. My macbook pro will not open the video files taken on a panasonic hd-sd10. is there a mac version of hd writer software that comes with the panasonic camcorder?

    Ask Panasonic whether or not they provide OSX versions of the software.
    Google the issue

    my macbook pro will not play a video without pausing every 11 seconds. PLEASE help me figure out what is wrong. very frustrating. I have already tried restarting

    buckmacie,
    has the video been completely downloaded onto your MacBook Pro when you start to play it? Or are you playing it while it downloads, AKA streaming it?

  • Mid 2010 MacBook Pro GPU Panic

    Right, I've had this issue for a while now but it's happening so regularly now that it's infuriating.
    My Mid 2010 15' MacBook Pro often suddenly turned off. The screen flashes white then it reboots. It's always when I'm doing things, but nothing taxing (Uploading files, listening to iTunes, etc). It's having a GPU panic, and I know this model has issues with the GPU. However when I took it to an Apple Store a few months back they told me nothing was wrong with it, they even ran tests for three days and said it worked perfectly. However it's still insanely slow (Takes 3 minutes to just open up chrome), and the panics are still happening.
    I'm not sure what to do, I'm pretty sure it's the GPU issue with these models, but Apple aren't seeing it when testing it, but it's still happening. What should I do?
    Here's the crash report from one of the most recent ones:

    You have the MacBookPro6,2, the Edsel of Macs. It may have the logic-board defect that was covered by this recall.
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider, to have the machine tested. The routine hardware diagnostics used by service providers do not detect the fault. There is a specific test for this issue that Apple calls "VST" (for "Video Switching Test.") Ask for it. A "Failed" result means that the fault is present. However, according to reports, some units may pass the test, and yet still be deemed eligible for repair under the program. Your experience may vary.
    Print the first page of the panic report, if any, and the support page linked above, and bring them with you.
    Note that the recall only applies within three years of purchase. After that, Apple may refuse the service. In that case, you may be quoted a price of about $300 (in the U.S.) for a "depot repair," which involves shipping the unit to a central repair facility and takes about two weeks. For that flat fee, anything found wrong with it should be fixed, not just the logic board.
    The model was discontinued on February 24, 2011, so the recall has nominally ended. Some units may have been sold after that date by Apple as refurbished, or by resellers as new, and they might still be covered.
    Some owners report that their unit was repaired under the program after the deadline had passed. Others report that the repair was covered by the extended warranty from a credit-card issuer. Again, your experience may vary.
    Sometimes the replacement part is also defective, so be prepared for that possibility.
    If it's too late for your unit to be repaired under the program, and you don't want to pay for a new logic board, you may be able to stop the panics by disabling automatic graphics switching. To use the discrete graphics processor, you'll need athird-party utility to switch to it manually.
    Often the panics start to happen after a system upgrade. If the upgrade was recent, and you have backups, then you can revert to a previous OS X version.
    If you're dissatisfied with Apple's response, please keep in mind that no one here represents the company or can help with customer-service issues.
    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
    *An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

  • Macbook Pro chrashes/panics on Apple software

    Hi all,
    my macbook Pro always crashes/reboots when using this Apple software: iWeb, iMovie, Iphoto, Garageband. Not on other software (also not on Logic Pro or Safari).
    Anyone an idea?

    That Mac shipped with bad Nvidia Graphics cards. Apple had a recall on them which would replace the logic board up to three years from date of purchase. That has expired.
    Depending on what country you are in, that may be still active due to local warranty regulations.
    If you take it to an Apple Store or Service Center, have them run a VST test (I think it means video switching test). Their normal tests will not detect the problem nor will the techs realize it is a mid-2010 Macbook Pro that had the known defective video card and run the test themselves.
    You can install gfxCardStatus to disable switching to the Nvidia graphics card. It helps some people avoid the kernel panics, but disables use of the more powerful video card.

  • Kernal panic caused from garageband

    Hi guys this seems to be a recurring problem, im now on my 3rd 2011 macbook pro and about 10% of the time im on garage band it kernal panics .
    I had headphones in and the blue snowball mic that the apple store gave me for free because they said it was compatible and caused no problems. I was in the middle of speeding up the bpm/tempo of my song and the boom it kernal panics...this is probly my 11th or 12th time getting this..and each time my computer seems to get significantly slower.
    Please guys this is making my mac experience miserable..i have been on the phone with customer support for probably more than 10 hrs and they always blame it on one thing or another....Ive even had a kernal panic with nothing plugged in before. THIS NEEDS TO STOP.
    So I would appreciate what ever advice you guys can give...thanks and here is the report
