MacBook Pro Retina Black Screens and Becomes Unresponsive

I've been having issues with my laptop where all of a sudden it would black screen and become unresponsive. Checking the console messages I see a lot of records referring to "AppleVTD: waiting space". This seems to be a reoccuring problem. I've already repaired my disk once and now it's happening again, I've ran the disk utility and it is telling me that my hard drive needs repairs again.
Here is an extract from the console messages from today:

I got about a hundred lines within that same error within that second
Witin the next 2 minutes I was able to reboot and it is running, for now. I'll be doing another round of disk repair, but this isn't sustainable. Can anybody elp me in identifying the root cause of these issues?
Thanks in advance,
Svetlana

and then my entire system freezes.  This has been happening at least once daily, and it's killing my productivity.
Have you figured out what was going on?
And, are you running any virtualization software, like Parallels?
Anyone out there know what's going on?  I'm pretty desperate here...
Thanks so much!

  • Macbook pro continuously black screening and rebooting-any solutions?

    Ever since upgrading OS to Mountain Lion there have been numerous times when waking the Macbook, it goes to black screen and reboots.  Several times it has rebooted then immediately shut down and rebooted again.  I am also running Paralles 9 which I needed to install after upgrading to the OS 6 operating system.  Has anyone else had this problem and is there an easy fix?

    You might try this:
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the 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.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Macbook Pro 13-inch (10.6.8) random white/black screens and becomes unresponsive...what is wrong/what to do to solve?

    PLEASE PLEASE READ THIS I'M IN NEED OF URGENT HELP. || Heeey everyone! I'm new here. Please don't bite me. =))
    Okay. So I have a Macbook Pro, 13 inch (bought Dec. 2010). It's currently running on Snow Leopard (10.6.8). It had a hard drive crash in Feb. 2012...I had it replaced and lost all my files . It had two major falls (January 2011 & November 2012). Oh, and it also makes this weird grinding noise when you listen closely.
    Everything was going fine, until last week, I encountered a kernel panic. Restarted, but was faced with that awkward blank white screen thing at start up. I was told at the Apple Store back when my hard drive crashed in Feb. 2012 that repeated pressing down of the power button can be damaging, so I waited for it to run out of battery to restart. After that, it was normal again. I downloaded OnyX and verified/repaired permissions...nothing was out of the ordinary.
    THEN. The next day, in the middle of use, my mac suddenly black-screened. Not a lot of windows were open, and I wasn't doing anything that...will put a strain on anything. It wasn't total pitch-black like the screen looks like when it's turned off. I could still hear the hard drive working and making that grinding sound. I pressed the caps-lock key, and it didn't light up. =))) What, is it off or something? But I can still hear the hard drive there. And it's totally unresponsive. So I decided to restart by pressing down the power button. It was normal again...until a few hours later when it suddenly white-screened. OKAY it's white now. I don't know what that's supposed to mean. But it had the same symptoms as the black-screen. Unresponsive, caps-lock didn't light up, normal grinding sound as if the computer was still on. So I let it run out of battery so I could restart. Upon restarting, I opened Disk Utility and verified disk permissions. There was no damage, nothing again.
    I recently got uTorrent (around late December), and thought that it might have been that, so I deleted it and emptied trash. The next day, it did the black screen again. Same with the next day. There's at least one per day. It didn't seem to affect performance at all, everything still ran smoothly. I made sure to check disk permissions to see if everything was okay. And everything was.
    Then, about three days passed without any black/white screen and I thought that nuisance was over. BUT NO. Two days ago, I got black-white-white screened and I was...shocked. I let it run out of battery again. =))) Checked Disk Utility, again, nothing. So I decided to get that Software Update thingo that always pops up. I upgraded to 10.6.8. A day passed without the dreaded black/white screens. But yesterday, it white screened once. And today, it white screened again.
    I really can't figure out a concrete pattern. It seems random. But what I do know is that:
    1. It happens in the afternoon. All the time, consistently in the afternoon. LOOOL IDK what this is supposed to mean, but its one of the common factors. =))
    2. Most of the time, it happens when I leave the computer for about 30 seconds - 1 minute to get something. Or if I'm watching a long video (like a TV show episode), a period of time where I don't touch the mouse/press any keys. Is that related somehow?
    3. I can't do anything to get it out of the white/black screen except restart. Each time I restart, I check Disk Utility and nothing is wrong.
    And yes, I've went to the Apple Store to get this checked. All they said is: "Upgrade to Lion, maybe the error will disappear. If it does, then it was just a software error. If it doesn't...then sorry." LOOOOOOL NOT FALLING FOR THAT, not spending money when I'm not sure it'll fix the error. I want concrete answers.
    I'm a student, and my Christmas Break will be over in less than a week. SO I NEED ALL THE HELP IN THE WORLD PLEASE. What is wrong with my laptop? Can I fix this? Will opening it in safe mode help in any way? PLEASE I'M DESPERATE.

    Try these:
    See what's loading in your login items. - delete the ones you don't need.
    Open up Activity Monitor and under all processes, see what's using most of your cpu's resources.  Highlight the ones using the most % CPU and hit quit process.
    Next, open up disk utility and verify your disk.  Once that's done, verify disk permissions - repair if needed.
    Restart your Macbook and see if it speeds things up for you.
    good luck....

  • My macbook pro (retina display) screen goes black after 4 minutes.

    my macbook pro (retina display) screen goes black after 4 minutes. when i press the trackpad it comes back.
    I have already deselected all the energy saving options.

    From what you describe, the computer is going to sleep.
    Have you restarted and reset the SMC?

  • Is it possible to connect my 2008 black macbook, to my new 2014 macbook pro retina display screen to make a dual monitor. If this is possible what cables would I need to buy?

    Is it possible to connect my 2008 black macbook, to my new 2014 macbook pro retina display screen to make a dual monitor. If this is possible what cables would I need to buy?

    You can try using Screen Sharing in the Sharing preferences. Or try a third-party utility such as ScreenRecycler.

  • The plastic hinge between my screen and the computer (macbook pro retina) is cracked and doesn't hold the screen anymore? Can Apple change it?

    The hinge between my screen and my computer (macbook pro retina) has cracked and doesn't hold the screen anymore. Can I fix it without changing my screen. And if it's still on guarantee does Apple have to repair it?

    Apple can fix any and all of their computers.  Whether it would be charged to you would be the question.   Do you have AppleCare?
    Accidental damage is not covered by AppleCare.
    How old is this computer?

  • I have Windows 8.1 installed on my Macbook Pro Retina (Late 2013) and it keeps on crashing with a WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR BSOD error

    I have Windows 8.1 installed on my Macbook Pro Retina (Late 2013) and it keeps on crashing with a WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR BSOD error. Is this an issue with the bootcamp driver not compatible with Windows 8.1? or is there something I can do to fix this.
    I also keep getting WHEA-Logger Event-ID 19 warning events in the Windows Event Logs with the following details.
    A corrected hardware error has occurred.
    Reported by component: Processor Core
    Error Source: Corrected Machine Check
    Error Type: Cache Hierarchy Error
    Processor APIC ID: 3
    The details view of this entry contains further information.

    likely win8.1 dont have official bootcamp support yet
    1/3 of my logins into win8.1 result in a fatal bluescreen
    was the same deal when I installed win8 before official support
    and when the drivers with official support was released the issue went away

  • How do I activate continuity calls on my macbook pro? I have an iPhone 6 and Macbook Pro Retina Mid 2014 and I live in Dubai

    I have an iPhone 6 and Macbook Pro Retina Mid 2014 and I live in Dubai, I bought my macbook from Canada and iPhone from UAE so it doesn't have FaceTime but i should be able to get calls on my mac right?

    If you set your imessage off on your phone it will only turn it off on your phone i think I don't think it effects your mac. I'm not 100% sure on this though.
    If you want to remove imessages from your mac  -  Open iMessage, go to Messages top left, and then select Preferences. Select "Accounts" and then simply "Sign out" That should do it.

  • Macbook Pro Retina's screen with a lot of issues (big vertical lines)

    I discovered recently that my MacBook Pro Retina have a lot of strange verticales lines on the screen.
    Not visible in current usage, but when I switch to dashboard and his black background sreen I can clearly see those issues.
    Anyone get this problem?
    Have to change my computer?

    I would certainly take it into an Apple Store and, if you can reproduce the problem for them, insist that it be fixed. If you're within your 14-day grace period, you can exchange your unit for another, no questions asked.

  • MacBook Pro Retina 15 - Eyestrain and Headaches

    Hello all!
    I would like to come back to the eyestrain topic. This problem was discussed intensively, and I've been following the long thread about LED causing eyestrain on MacBooks, but I don't know if we reached a conclusion.
    Well. I bought a MacBook Pro Retina 15 (Mid 2014) three weeks ago and since then I have eyestrain, headaches, red eyes and dry eyes daily. I've never felt such things in years working with computers.
    Like some people, I think that I don't have issues with LED screens. My old laptop has a glossy LED screen, I have LED TV in my house and I never ever had such symptoms!
    I've directly contacted Apple Support too, but the only thing they've told me is that I should have my eyes checked, since there is nothing wrong with the machine. ****! My eyes are not the problem too! I am 29 years old, and I wear reading glasses, because I have small degree of myopia.... my lens have a special coating anti-glare and with UV protection (Crizal). But nothing seems to help me to have a painless experience using the rMBP. Due to that eyestrain, I went to an opthamologist, but he hasn't found anything wrong with my eyes!
    I feel tremendously sad, frustrated and disappointed that this is happening with me (and other people), even more when this is my first Apple product. So sad.
    Well, guys. I don't know what to do anymore! I tried everything that I could: went to the doctor, increased and lowered the resolution (i am using Best for retina now), increased and lowered the screen brightness; tried to use f.lux app and Shades. And these symptoms appears both when using the Intel Iris as the GT 750M. I'm using Mavericks, but tried the Yosemite too.
    Nothing worked!
    I still don't tried to put a screen protector, but I guess that also will not work. By the way, someone knows a good screen protector to test?
    Besides, anyone knows if this issue is due the LED backlid, software related, PWD, refresh rate or what? Anyone reached a conclusion? Or, more important, anyone knows how to fix it?
    Apple never expressed respect. And although we are the exception, I think it would be important to have a satisfaction about what is happening. And not just talk that the problem is in our eyes.
    I would not want to get rid the machine - I liked it very much! But I think that sell this Mac is the only way to me. I don't want to stay with a computer that I can't use like I want, because it is hurting me.
    This is very disapointing... so if anyone could help me, I'll be very glad.
    Thank you, guys!
    Sorry for any inconvenience and my english, it's not my native language.

    The best option is an appointment at an Apple store genius bar and have the technicians diagnose the problem.
    Ciao.

  • Small dent on Macbook Pro Retina display screen.

    I'm looking for anyone else that has had this problem, ways to either fix it or just what to expect from the Apple Store when I go in.  If it has happened to me twice, I feel it can't be too rare.  Perhaps just to doccument it as well.
    I've had my 15" Macbook Pro with Retina display for 6 months now and other than the screen, I've enjoyed it very much.
    Two weeks into having the new computer I found what I thought was a dead pixel (two inches right then two inches up from center) and brought it in.  I'd read about such things online and the LG/Samsung debacle but really just wanted my new computer to stay nice and new.
    When I got into the store, they told me it was really just a dent in the screen from when dust or something got trapped between the screen and keyboard when it was closed.  I thought to myself "Hey, my office is in the basement, maybe something fell down from the bare ceiling and it could have happened." Although I find myself taking very good care of the computer.
    They replaced the screen for me under warranty and I instantly went out and got a case, screen cleaner that came with a fine brush to wipe they keyboard off with and a nifty microfiber cloth.  Ever since then I've been afraid to close my Macbook Pro and rarely do so.  I even asked them what I could do to prevent such things in the future.  I was specifically told there wasn't much I could do other than try to ensure it didn't close on any dust.  There was no product that would help and they recommended I didn't get a screen protector because it might damage a screen as well.  For a laptop it seemed very impractical, but what else was I really supposed to do other than use it as a desktop?
    Since then I've moved and no longer work in a basement.  Two days ago I noticed the exact same thing appear in very nearly the exact same spot (I didn't document it the first time so I can't be perfectly sure but definitely the ball park of a square cm).  I live a ways from an apple store but am visiting home in a week and based off my own experience and others that I have read, they'll replace the screen.  I just wanted to esure they had the part since I'll only be in town for the weekend.  Apple care had given me a case number and the number of the store, I called to arrange a genius appointment and try to see if they had the part, or at least if they could order it now.
    The first man I got on the phone initially said "I don't know why they keep having people call here, let me get a technician for you."  A few minutes on hold and I got a woman who claimed very matter of fact "That damage isn't covered, you'll have to pay for the replacement.  I just want you to know what to expect when you walk in the store."
    This is the same store I had gone to before where they had replaced it without question, I just wanted to try and line everything up before making the trip and having to explain it all when I arrived.  I just wish they'd have a plan set out rather than it being up to individual employees.
    What can I do to fix this screen?  I got this computer based off all the video and photo editing I do and notice it instantly.
    Side note, this isn't the same machine that did it before either.  When I got my computer back from repair, they had forgotten to plug in the part that has the backlit keyboard.  Then when that was fixed, the right side USB didn't function.
    The Macbook also had image "ghosting" or retention issues.   I hear that can be fixed via software though rather than being just hardware? I don't notice that as much as the little dent however. My display is LP154WT1-SJA1.

    I have a MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013) and just noticed this today in a similar location - from center, mine is about two inches right and one inch up.  I thought it was a dead pixel after cleaning it and then realized it was a little dent.  The location, when the notebook is closed, corresponds to the flat area between the Command key and Trackpad.
    I take very good care of my MacBook and there are certainly no rocks on my keyboard when I close the lid!  The screen stands off the keyboard when closed due to the raised trim so this should not have been the cause.  I can't think of any other way this might have happened in my situation, though I guess anything is possible.
    The effects of this dent are quite visible now in certain circumstances - on a dark background it looks like a little clump of stuck, lit pixels and on a light background it looks like a clump of dead pixels.  Too bad, since I bought this, my first Mac, partly for its amazing screen.

  • 15" MacBook Pro (Retina, late-2013) and Microsoft Office 2011

    Is there a known issue with Microsoft Office 2011 and the 15" MacBook Pro (Retina, late-2013)?  Specifically, is there an issue with how MS Office (e.g., MS Word) displays one the Retina screen?
    Thank you.

    If you used VMware Fusion to install Windows, first make sure you have installed VMware Tools in Windows. Read > http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=display KC&externalId=1003417
    Then, you will be able to change the Windows resolution as usual. In Windows, right-click in the desktop and select "Screen resolution". There are other ways to do this > http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/get-best-display-monitor.
    There are not best recommended settings because it depends on the hardware of your computer: for example, if you have got 8 GB of RAM, you can assign 4 GB of RAM to the virtual machine (depending on the applications you use), or if you have got a Quad-Core processor with Hyper-Threading, you can assign more processor threads to the virtual machine so you can improve performance.

  • Late 2013 Macbook Pro Retina 15" screen brightness is dull?

    I winder if someone can help me with a issue regarding my machine.
    I have recently had my early 2013 Macbook Pro retina replaced with the late 2013 model and found that the screen brightness  at maximum is (or appears) to be somewhat less?
    Can any anyone help?
    Regards

    The low-end 15” rMBP with a 8 GB or RAM and a 256 GB SSD costs $2,000. 
    The low-end 15” rMBP with a 8 GB or RAM and a 512 GB SSD costs $2,300. 
    With 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD it costs $2,500.
    The high-end 15” rMBP with a 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD costs $2,600.
    All cost $500 dollars more with a 1 TB SSD.
    So the SSD size is not a differentiating factor unless you prefer 256 GB.
    If you think you need 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD then you might as well spend the extra $100 for the high-end model.
    The high-end model will make a difference on gaming and graphics-oriented applications.
    They tend to run other applications at about the same speed.
    Both models are rated with 8 hours of battery life.
    Benchmarks on PhotoShop comparing memory sizes:  https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5659174?tstart=30
    The speed was about 10% different between 8 GB and 16 GB models.
    On other applications your mileage may vary.
    Application benchmarks:
    http://www.macworld.com/article/2059215/15-inch-retina-macbook-pro-review-a-tale -of-two-laptops.html
    The low-end and high-end performed the about the same on non-graphics oriented applications.
    Graphics oriented benchmarks:
    On the Cinebench OpenGL benchmark the high-end was about twice as fast.
    On the Unigine Heaven Benchmark benchmark they ran at about the same speed.
    On the Unigine Valley Benchmark benchmark the high-end was about 1.5x as fast.
