Macbook Pro random restart during wake from Safe Sleep

When my Macbook Pro is waking up from Safe Sleep, sometimes it spontaneously restarts halfway through the process. The Safe Sleep progress bar gets half way, then you hear the startup chime, and then the login screen appears. Obviously, all my unsaved but supposedly 'safe' work is lost at that point.

Hello there DaveWoo,
It sounds like your computer is occasionally restarting on its own when you wake it from sleep. There can be a number of reasons for this to happen, and I recommend you use the following article to help you resolve or isolate the issue. Its pretty thorough and has a lot of information.
OS X: When your computer spontaneously restarts or displays "Your computer restarted because of a problem."

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,

My MacBook Pro randomly froze during a sync to my iPhone and started making a scratching noise by the power button. I shut it off then turned it back on and it won't take me to the desk tops it will just flash a folder with a question mark in it. What do

You have a HDD problem (hopefully you have a backup). Start with the information on this support article:

MacBook Pro Retina won't wake after after sleeping!

On most occasions after my 13" MacBook Pro Retina has been put to sleep (by closing lid or pressing Power button) overnight it will not wake up again until I have reset the Systems Management Controller. Opening the lid, or Power button or Space bar still leaves a black screen.
My wife's new 11" MacBook Air suffers similar problems even after our local Apple Store reinstalled Mavericks in an attempt to resolve the problem..
Any thoughts on a solution would be gratefully received - thanks.

Mac Pro is not the same as the notebook MacBook Pro

Macbook Pro randomly restarting since installing Mavericks

Hi guys,
I've got a mid-2010 Macbook Pro. Since I installed Mavericks, about 6 months ago, it's started restarting at random (it just goes black and then goes through the reboot cycle. Sometimes it can happen a few times in the same hour - sometimes once a week. It doesn't seem related to what programs I have open or how hot it is running. It often happens a few minutes after the machine has awoken from sleep, but this isn't always the case.
I was convinced that this was due to the faulty nVidia chip which was included in some mid-2010 MBPs so I took it to the Apple genius bar and showed them this KB article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4088 (having first done a clean install of OSX).
They ran "VST (Video System Test) 1.0.3v5 for Macbook Pro (15-inch, mid-2010)" and it passed. They then took the laptop into the back room and "ran some more hardware tests", all of which passed too.
I bought the machine back to my house and started reinstalling software. About 10 minutes ago it restarted itself again (with the same GPU panic message and GPUPanic.cpp:127 line). The only difference between this restart and those before I reinstalled Mavericks is that the previous restarts would be proceeded by a "your computer needs to restart because of a problem" whereas just now no message was displayed until the computer fully rebooted, and then a "your computer was rebooted because of an issue" message was displayed.
I've only installed a few pieces of software, and nothing that I thought would mess with the graphics drivers.
Could anyone please take a look at my logs and see if anything looks amiss? The genius has stressed that it cannot be hardware related so hopefully somebody will spot something.
The only other thing perhaps worth mentioning is that I have 3rd party RAM and a 3rd party SSD harddrive in there. Could either of these be responsible?
Thanks,
Joe

I just wanted to share my experiences with Apple recently.
To give some background: my mid-2010 Macbook Pro started restarting randomly after I upgraded to Mavericks and the logs indicated that it was the GPU issue. I am currently residing in Dublin so my nearest Apple store is over 100 miles away in Belfast (a 2-3 hour drive or train journey).
I first took the machine to the Apple store on the 8th March, having first made an appointment at the Genius Bar. I had entered details of the issue into the concierge system and the Genius seemed to know what he was dealing with. He ran the GPU test - which it promptly passed - but, after this point, I didn't see the Genius again as he disappeared into a back room, never to return.
About 20 minutes later (as I was beginning to get annoyed) someone else came and asked if I was being helped. I explained the situation to him and he hurriedly offered to "take it in the back to run further tests". I agreed and left the machine with him - but in all the kerfuffle I left my charger behind.
I went back and collected my laptop as the store was closing. I briefly discussed the test results with a different Genius, who suggested that it must be a software issue. He said that - as I had restored the OS to factory settings before the visit - it was most probably fixed. Given that it had not restarted since I restored the machine (the night before), I agreed and left.
Unfortunately, I didn't realise that I'd forgotten my charger until I got home. I called the store the next day but was told that it's "not Apple policy" to post things out and that if I wanted the charger I'd have to collect it from the store myself. I was then told that it would probably be better for me to "just buy a new one" given the distance involved!
Anyway, the next day I was reinstalling some software and the machine restarted again. I made a post on here and was told that the logs still suggested a faulty GPU, and that the Genius should have spotted it.
So I made another trip to Belfast!
First, I tried to collect my charger. After some crossed wire between staff members, it turned out that someone had labelled my charger and left it on the side for me to collect, but then someone else had then thrown it away. To Apple's credit, however, they gave me a new one off the shelf without hesitation.
Next, the Genius ran the same test again and this time it failed. I asked the Genius why it would be the case that the EXACT same test would pass one day and fail the next but he didn't have any ideas. It is *my* theory that the test not only checks the GPU itself, but also looks in the log folder for logs that indicate a faulty GPU and that, by restoring the OS before I took it in, I effectively "cleared" this folder and made it impossible to detect.
Anyway, he next mentioned that it was out of warranty and that I would need to pay for a repair. However, I had a printout from the trading standards site which outlined the Sale of Goods act and how (under UK law) we are protected for 6 years from purchase if a product is defective. He spoke to a couple of managers and agreed to replace the motherboard without charge.
Next, he wanted proof that I'd purchased the machine directly from the Apple website, as apparently their records only go back 18 months (!). Unfortunately, I lost some emails a couple of years back and no longer had the receipt but - after another discussion with managers - he agreed to proceed anyway.
He then said that I would have to come and collect the machine in a few days. The trading standards guidelines say that the RETAILER is responsible for arranging collection and delivery of the faulty product so I asked whether they could ship it to Dublin. However, he argued that to do this I would have to rearrange everything through AppleCare and have them collect/deliver the machine. So, having gotten this far (and not wanting them to change their minds), I just agreed.
Anyway, I received an email saying that it was ready a few days later so I went back to Belfast again and collected it. So far (touch wood) it's been working perfectly and without a single restart.
So, the things to remember:
1) The test may not detect the issue the first time but that doesn't mean it's not there
2) Restoring OSX to factory settings MAY impede the ability for the test to detect the issue
3) It doesn't matter if you're out of warranty if you're covered by Consumer Law (check out the law in your country)
4) Don't leave your charger in the Apple store!
NB: I'm not a lawyer, of course, and none of this constitutes legal advice; I'm just hoping it will help some people as there seem to be a LOT of folks having this issue.

Mid 2010 MacBook Pro randomly restarting

Hello,
I wanted to drop Apple an email regarding this issue, but they seem careless about customers living in countries with Apple resellers only and don't think they might need to get expert help via email. Better buy a PC next time. I hope I will at least find some help here. I also think my problem might apply to this: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4088
Here is the letter:
Dear Sir/Madam,
I have a Mid 2010 15-inch MacBook Pro, on which I have been running Snow Leopard, Lion and Mountain Lion with no problems. But recently I have been working with my computer when suddenly screen turned black and the computer restarted. (Actually, when it restarted for first time it shut down before the startup sound, but booted up without problems after I turned it on via the power button.) Since it was the first time I didn't pay attention.
Then after a few days it happened again, but this time the computer didn't seem like booting up again. When I finally got to the grey screen I tried safe booting with verbose mode, which sadly ended with the same restart after “DSMOS has arrived” line. From this I assume the problem won't lie in non-stock kernel extensions. I also tried resetting NVRAM with no success.
I had a flash drive with stock Mountain Lion installer, succesfuly booted it up and let it run for a while, after about 15 minutes it shut down with the same black screen. From this I assume that the problem dosen't lie in my current Mountain Lion installation.
From report logs I can tell two kernel extensions common to all the restarts: com.apple.NVDAResman, com.apple.nvidia.nv50hal; and four appearing only in some cases: com.apple.driver.AGPM, com.apple.GeForce, com.apple.iokit.IONDRVSupport, com.apple.iokit.IOGraphicsFamily.
This made me suspicious about the dedicated Nvidia graphic card. I installed an utility called gfxCardStatus, which not only shows which card is currently in use, but also allows for force using of specific card. I also installed NovaBench to have some GPU-heavy benchmark available. When I run NovaBench, the computer switched from integrated to dedicated card with no problems, and the benchmark succesfuly finished. But when I tried forcing switch to any of the cards the computer restarted with the black screen. This made me suspicious about the logic board instead of specific graphics card.
The problems also occurs when waking up form sleep. Sometimes it would wake up normally, but sometimes it would immidiately restart to a grey screen saying “Your computer restarted because of a problem. Wait a few seconds or press a key to continue starting up.”
To summarize the problem, the computer restarts randomly and fails to wake up from sleep sometimes. I got it as a gift from my father, who lives in Slovakia and have bought it from local reseller. The problem is that I live in Czech Republic and I have some doubts regarding the quality of support at resellers. (Namely I am afraid they will say “See, it runs. There's no problem.”) Also I need to constantly work on a project for school competition, which is mostly done in Photoshop, and longer time without my computer would severely threaten the deadline. I would be very grateful to first have an opinion from Apple empolyee, who really has an in-depth knowledge of MacBooks and Mac OS X.
Update: After writing this I tried resetting SMC, again with no success.
Thanks in advance.
Yours faithfully
Samuel Novák

I had already given my MacBook to dad, but in Slovakia they have horrible laws towards customers. The reseller has taken 2 weeks just to make a statement, which is ridiculous since I had sent the MacBook along with a detailed description of the problem and printed Apple article. It seems they have found the machine to be faulty and took another 30 days to fix it.
I am more than happy to hear that Apple in this case promises to replace the logic board free of charge. It is a powerful machine and I don't want to replace it yet, but if I were about to pay for a new logic board I would consider buying a new laptop.
Next time I would want to buy anything from Apple I would to one of official Apple stores in Austria, although it seem that not all the employees can diagnose certain issues the quality of service must be incomparable. These almost two months without MacBook, or Photoshop, have ruined my chances to participate in a countrywide student's projects competition, I must wait for the next year and that would be the last chance since I would be leaving high school.

MacBook pro 17" will not wake from sleep mode

Ok so my MacBook Pro 17" with osx 10.6.8 will not awaken from sleep mode. when attempting to wake it up the screen dosent come on and the mouse and keyboard do not receve any power. to get back on the computer i have to force a hard restart by holding the power button for 10 seconds then pressing it again. then it boots to where i left off when i closed the lid. i have read a few forums about this problem and i have went through all the steps of reseting various things and went as far as going into terminal using sudo to disable safe sleep and nothing helps. i noticed an unusual error in my console. here is a copy of my console log. the one in question is {7/14/13 4:52:43 AM com.apple.UserEventAgent-Aqua[118] dontAutoLoad = EMPTY!} someone please help me I am over 150 miles from the nearest apple store or authorised retailer

Also I broke down and called support again this time a senior advisor's boss recorded the events and sent the data to their "engineering department" still waiting on the results hopefully they will get back to me sometime between today and saturday. will post the results of the tests. also this is a 2011 17in intel i5

Mid 2010 Macbook Pro Randomly Restarts

Hi everyone and thanks for taking a look at my issue.
Let me give some back story first.
My MacBook was experiencing kernel panics and random restarts. I found information about the nvideo graphics card having an issue on this model and I took my MacBook into the Apple store to run the diagnostic test to confirm a flawed graphics card. The genius ran the test twice and it passed both times.
I explained the issues with the random restarts and the kernel panics and becasue I have AppleCare I left my MacBook Pro to have the logic board replaced last week. I picked up my MacBook Pro last Friday and I thought it was fixed until Sunday it restarted randomly and then restarted randomly 20 mintutes after that. Then about 1 hour ago it did it again.
So here are things I tried before I took into Apple:
1. I repaird disk permissions
2. I reverted back to Snow Leopard
3. I installed gfxCardStatus and selected the Intel graphics card to use all the time
This is a very frustrating issue.
Here is the most recent panic report:

The other two panic reports listed firefox as a cause and mtmd on the other panic report
Another thing I noticed is that the left side of my MacBook Pro gets hot, but the right side is fine. That seems very strange to me. I know computers generate heat but
Maybe someone here can tell me what this means. If it's hardware related or software related.
I'll take it back to Apple if I need to. Thank goodness for AppleCare.
Thanks again for reading this and thanks in advance for any help.

Hello there,
I'm also having the same issue. Macbook book pro from 2010 and never had an issue untill now. Just fully re formatted my hard drive and tested a few things in disk utility and everything looks fine.   When it restarts I get this notice up restart.

MacBook Pro randomly restarting since upgrading to Mavericks. Help!

Ever since I downloaded Mavericks, my 2010 MacBook Pro is randomly restarting due to a GPU panic. I tried all the trouble shooting suggested by apple support via telephone (updating software, reinstalling mavericks, repairing disks). It is still restarting 4-5 times a day at least. I read it could be an issue with my model of MacBook, but it has been more than 3 years since I purchased it (almost 4 years). It never restarted when I was running 10.6. Why would it all of a sudden start doing this? Anyone have any luck with them replacing the hardware for free even though it was past the 3 years? Please help! I can't downgrade my operating system, as I need to run Lightroom 5 and it is not compatible with 10.6. Thank you!

tccsp11,
yes, sinve you’re getting GPU panics, your MacBook Pro is probably suffering from the defect described here. It’s a hardware defect, so the problem was always latent; one possible reason for it starting under Mavericks is that perhaps Mavericks switches to the NVIDIA GPU to perform some tasks (for better performance) that Snow Leopard didn’t switch for. One person reported that he was able to get the servicing done gratis, but he lives in Singapore, so I don’t know if e.g. Singapore consumer protection law played any part in that. If you need to run Lightroom 5, then it sounds as though you’re going to need to confirm whether your NVIDIA GPU has the defect or not, so you might as well make an appointment at your closest Apple store to have them run their Video System Test on your MacBook Pro.

Macbook Pro (2008) won't wake from sleep?

Two days ago, a day after replacing an old battery, my 2008 model Macbook Pro refused to wake from sleep. For the past 48 hours it has been doing one of two things.
          A) It will act normally, except that the screen is blank (make the start-up sound, and sound as though it's running when I try to wake it)
           or
          B) Act as if it's sleeping.
I have tried:
-Resetting the SMC
-Resetting the PRAM
-Restarting the laptop from battery power
-Restarting with it plugged in a battery removed
Someone gave me the idea to hook up an external monitor, and see if it's my screen, but it's in the "Don't wake from sleep" stage at the moment. It's is out of warranty, so I want to see if anyone has any solutions or suggestions before I pay someone to take a look at it.
Thanks!

I'm convinced the price of repairs is a ploy to drive up new sales figures! As are these convenient 'catastrophic' hardware issues! It's odd that every post asking about this fault crop up after 4 or 5 years of impeccable reliability, it's like they are self destruct to force you into the clutches of an overly friendly assistant who leaves you wanting to invite them round for Sunday dinner because your nan will adore them! Ahhh well shiny new apple things do fill the void in lives only satisfied by something over priced to stroke and adore!

MacBook Pro needs restart after wake up

I recently upgraded the hard drive (to 1TB) and RAM (to 8GB) of my late 2008 MacBook Pro, as well as performed a fresh install of Yosemite. My system has been running pretty fast and well; however, when I put my notebook to sleep and wake it up, it won't run programs. Files won't save, programs will quit before they start, and web pages won't load, and this is after wake up. When I restart the computer after this, it returns to normal working order. I can shut down and restart when I need to, but I would like to be able to use sleep/wakeup when I can (which was working fine when I had Mavericks and the older HDD and memory). I was wondering if this was a problem with Yosemite, as I have been seeing some issues with this functionality with the new OS, or if it is a problem with my new hardware. Thanks in advance.

Step 1
Take all the applicable steps in this support article. That's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem. Please read the whole article carefully (some of it is hidden by disclosure triangles) and don't skip any of the steps, including the ones under the heading "Additional troubleshooting." If you don't understand any of the steps, ask for guidance.
Step 2
If you're running OS X 10.8.5 or earlier, from the menu bar select
           ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Accessibility
If the checkbox at the bottom marked
          Enable access for assistive devices
is checked, uncheck it and test.
If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select
           ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Security & Privacy ▹ Privacy ▹ Accessibility
If any applications are listed on the right and have a checked box next to them, uncheck all the boxes and test. You may first have to click the padlock icon in the lower left corner of the window and authenticate as an administrator to unlock the settings.
Step 3
In the Energy Saver pane of System Preferences, uncheck the box marked
          Put hard disks to sleep when possible
Step 4
If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
*The linked support article refers to OS X 10.10 ("Yosemite"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.
Step 5
This and the next step must be taken as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console 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 and start typing the name.
In the Console window, select
          DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ Diagnostic and Usage Messages
In the search box in the window's toolbar, enter "powerd" (without the quotes.)
You may see one or more lines like this:
com.apple.message.signature: Platform Failure
If you do see that, and you did everything in the preceeding steps, then you're dealing with an internal hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.
Step 6
In the Console window, select
          DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that heading, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down.
You may see one or more reports with a name that begins with "Sleep Wake Failure" followed by a date. Select the most recent one. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.

Macbook Pro randomly restarts all program

Hey Guys,
I have a MBP 15 that for no apparent reason while I am working the screen will turn blue, and then all the services seem to restart (All the apps close and then re-open). The computer doesn't actually restart just the services. It happens about once a day.
The computer has a new battery and is plugged in when this happens.
The laptop is sitting on a laptop cooler which is blowing air on it.
I do have a Momentus XT hybrid drive, which I am thinking may be the problem see:
http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/20/momentus-xt-hybrid-drive-causing-headaches-se agate-working-to-f/
But that drive is fast, it boots up somewhere between 15-35 seconds.. crazy fast but the services restarting is the only problem I have been having with the MAC and I don't know if its the HD, an application I have installed, or what. Maybe you guys can shed some light or help me figure out what errors I might have that might be causing it.
The laptop restarted all the service after 1:34pm , below is a portion of the log file...there is a ton more but didn't know how much to post to be helpful.
I have tried repairing the disc, fixing permissions and rebooting...but the problem still returns. That is about all I have tried so far...
Any Suggestions???

The first thing I'd do is create a new user account (call it Test Account) and leave it absolutely pristine. DO NOT change any settings or add any software. Then log into that account and see if you have the same problem. If you do not then you have eliminated hardware and also know it's a software problem limited to your current user account. That's were I'd start.
I'd also recommend opening Activity Monitor (Applications - Utilities - Activity Monitor) and see if there are any applications taking up a lot of %CPU and how much free RAM you may have. If you see an application taking up too much %CPU then you have narrowed down the issue. If you are extremely low on RAM then perhaps a RAM upgrade is what all that's needed.

MacBook Pro kernel panic on wake from sleep

I need some advice. Over the past few days, my MacBook Pro has been experiencing kernel panics when I open the screen and it wakes from sleep. The panic is immediate; there is no lag or time between opening the computer and the initiation of the event. It appears to be intermittent however and I wanted to get some input on this before I start troubleshooting it. Perhaps I may need to have Apple take a look at the unit but I would like to solve the issue (if possible) myself.
One thing I did notice is that the kernel panics started only after I recently updated Mac OS X with the most recent Security Update 2006-003, Quicktime 7.1 and Front Row 1.2.2. Not sure if this is related however, it is interesting that the panics started almost immediately following the software update.
Here is the panic log:

MacBook Pro 2 GHz 1 GB Ram Mac OS X (10.4.6)

One other thing I noticed that could or could not be the problem but is sure curious is the option in the Energy Saver control pane for automaticly dimming the screen before sleep. I first noticed when I got my MacBook Pro that this option was enabled without it be marked as on. I checkmarked it then unchecked it again and the screen did not appear to dim before sleep anymore. However, since the last kernel panic on Monday, I have reenabled the option thinking it could possibly be this. It's kind of far fetched I know, but my system has been stable for past 2 days so perhaps this software flaw in the Energy Saver is the blame. Sort of makes sense since this timmer for dimming is activated before sleep of the display which might corrispond with some part of the sleep/wake system of the computer and/or Mac OS X. Later, I am going to try turning the dimmer off and cycling the computer from sleep to wake and see if I get a panic. I'll keep everyone posted as to my results.

Macbook Pro Retina freezes on wake from sleep

Ever since the Mavericks 10.9.2 update my computer "freezes" on waking up from sleep. Each time I wake it up I require a password immediately, and about once a day (out of 5-7 times that I wake it up) I will put in my password, the password field becomes grayed out, acknowledging that I hit return, and then does nothing. It doesn't become unresponsive (I can still move the mouse), but the computer doesn't unlock.
I left it sitting like this for 30 minutes one time and it just sat on this screen. If I put it back to sleep or shut the shell and try to log in again it does the same thing.
The only way to resolve (that I've found) is to do a hard shutdown, which has led to the loss of some unsaved work.
Doing a hard reset once (sometimes twice or three times) a day is pretty frustrating. Is anyone else experiencing this problem and has anyone found a fix?

New retina macbook pro randomly restarting?

Hi, all,
I just bought the new retina-display macbook pro.
And this laptop is amazing!
but sometimes it has to RANDOMLY restart. It restarts when I'm using it, while it is asleep, or sometimes even when i try to shut it down.\
Anyone has the same problem?

That behavior means that your Mac is crashing. Several things can cause a crash, like a defect in manufacturing, but usually... USUALLY... this happens to people running software that didn't come with their Mac that isn't compatible with the operating system. Some antivirus programs cause this, and the older version of the Chrome Browser caused a lot of problems for people, too.
If you haven't installed questionable software or imported old settings on to your new Mac, and it's behaving this way anyway, there is something wrong with your Mac and you should return it. You are covered under warranty, and if you have good customer service you may be able to get it replaced.

Brand New Macbook Pro 17 Won't Wake From Sleep

6 day old Macbook Pro 17 unibody refuses to go past white screen. I have tried a forced reboot. Nothing. Laptop just goes to white screen with no response from keyboard. Can't boot into safe-mode. Can't do anything. Logo doesn't appear. Just white screen and sits there indefinetely.

Furthermore, I am now hearing a faint repeated beep coming from the lower right side. (where I assume the HD is)
