MacBook Pro System CPU Spikes When Unplugged
Upgraded to Mavericks a few days ago and,whenever I unplug my MacBook Pro 13" (Early 2011 - 2.3GHz Intel Core i5 - 16GB RAM 1333MHz) and run just on the battery, my system CPU usage goes through the roof which results in my Mac running/responding very slowly and buggy.
However, looking at the iStat widget on my dashboard, it's reporting that my CPU isn't running hot nor does my MacBook Pro feel hot at all. It's also showing that I still have 10GB of RAM free.
As expected, once my magsafe is reattached to my laptop and plugged back in, the system CPU returns to a normal level. In Activity Monitor, it shows kernel_task as being the culprit.
I queried the log as suggested by Linc and TextEdit had something for me:
Dec 10 15:51:31 My-MBP kernel[0] <Debug>: Process Setup Assistant [307] disabling system-wide I/O Throttling
Anyone have any idea what this could be? Seems like it should be a simple software config but I just don't know.
Additionally, I also ran EtreCheck. These are the results when it's running unplugged:

Does anyone have any ideas on why this is happening or are experiencing anything similar? I can't for the life of me figure out if it's a Mavericks issue or if it's a hardware issue. Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks!
You're not going to believe this but I just now found a working solution!!!
Thanks to the talents of a man named, Rhys Oxenhams, and his flawless tutorial, eveything's running normally now!
BEFORE READING ON...make sure you backup all of you data! I take no responsibility for anything bad that happens to your machine. I'm providing this information because it worked for me. There's no guarantee it will work on your system. TAKE ALL NECESSARY PRECAUTIONS BEFORE READING ON and BACKUP YOUR DATA IMMEDIATELY.
Here's what you need to do:
1. In the Finder menu bar, click on Go and select Computer. 2. In the window that comes up, double-click your computer's HD. For me, it's Macintosh HD. 3. From there, click on System > Library > Extensions. 4. Now look for a file called IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext. 5. Right-click on IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext and choose Show Package Contents. 6. In that new window that comes up, click on Contents > Plugins and locate ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin.kext. 7. Just like in step 5, right-click on ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin.kext and choose Show Package Contents. 8. Just like in step 6, in that new window that comes up, click on Contents > Resources and locate your Model Identifer.
• In case you don't know what your Model ID is, click on the in the top left of the screen and choose About This Mac • In the window that comes up, click on More Info... • In the next window that comes up, click on System Report • In the very first screen, towards the top, locate the entry Model Identifier - Write this info down on a piece of paper. You will need it. In my case, I wrote down MacBookPro8,1 9. Back in the Resources folder, locate the .plist file that has your model identifier. In my case, it was MacBookPro8,1.plist 10. You're not going to delete that file but instead move it to a differnt folder inside your home folder--doesn't matter which folder, just put it somewhere inside your home folder. 11. Restart your machine and you are good to go!
Let me know how it turns out for you. REMINDER: Backup your data before doing this!

Hello all,
I am new to posting on this forum but I really hope that someone out there can help me out. I have a 13" MacBook Pro, 2.53 GHz Core 2 Duo, 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3, running OSX 10.6.8. My problem is that when I unplug the laptop form the charger and run it on the battery, the computer becomes unresponsive to any commands at all. It basically really slows down to a crawl. Even when rebooting it will take 5-10 minutes or more to do so. The odd thing is, when it gets plugged back in while any of this is going on, within a minute or two it works perfectly. It has been in a mac authorized repair shop for 7 weeks and has had a new logic board and a new hard drive replaced. The battery was tested and charges fine, holds a charge when unplugged, and the system profile shows the battery at Normal. Recently, many knowledgeable mac enthusiasts gave me tip that might help. Here is what I did: Ran an SMC reboot (no success), rebooted the computer under safe mode then unplugged it to test (no success), and ran a hardware test on the install disk (showed hardware ok)
I am at a loss as to what to do next. It has become impossible to use this laptop for my classes when it is unplugged. I am about ready to just go buy a new one, and call this one a goner.
I am hoping someone reading this can help with any other ideas on its problem. Help? Anyone?
SteveLPBassman,
since the tech in your IT department was able to copy your daughter’s data from her MacBook Pro’s internal disk, I’d suggest completely erasing the internal disk (using Disk Utility in Recovery mode, reformatting it with a “Mac OS Extended (Journaled)” filesystem), reïnstalling its original version of Mac OS X (either Snow Leopard from the grey Mac OS X Install DVD if it originally came with two grey DVDs, or Lion via OS X Internet Recovery if no grey DVDs originally came with it), running Software Update to get it to 10.6.8 or 10.7.5 respectively, reïnstalling Mavericks, running Software Update again to get it up to date, and finally restoring your daughter’s data. -
Macbook Pro Retina CPU Overheating when doing simple tasks?
I've had my Macbook Pro w/ Retina since July 2012 and for about a month now (starting in November) the CPU Die - Digital has been getting EXTREMELY overheated. It has gotten up to 210 degrees F which is way past the damaging level of CPU but the real kicker is that it happens when I have a few tabs open in safari and a couple other minor programs open (Mail, Finder, App Store, Skype, iTunes). It's not like I'm running Skyrim, LoL, and Starcraft while running background tasks in Fincal Cut X and Motion V?? I mean I have 16GB of ram and only 5 or 6 of it is in use so it's not a problem with multitasking and processing power also shouldn't pose much of a threat for a few tabs in a browser and some low usage programs. I use iStat Menu's and I took a screenshot just now of it in the 180's when it was recently in the 190's. I also checked the disk utility and I can't see anything in the CPU usage that would make it work that hard.
My questions are am I doing something wrong? Is there something I'm missing? Is my laptop defective and in need of refurbishing using Apple Care? Is this happening to anyone else?
Thank you in advance.Turn off Skype and see if that has any affect. Skype is is a notorious heat generator.
Did you check Activity Monitor?
Ciao. -
What's wrong with my macbook pro (15" early 2011) when i connect it with TV via hdmi
What's wrong with my macbook pro (15" early 2011) when i connect it with TV via hdmi
Hello Alex,
It sounds like you are getting excessive CPU usage when connecting an external display via HDMI to your computer. I would try the troubleshooting steps outlined in the article named:
Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1573
When using an external display be sure to check the following:
If you're using an Apple notebook, confirm the AC power cable or adapter is securely connected to the computer and the cable providing power to the display is also secure. It is always good to have your notebook connected to AC power when an external display is in use.
Confirm display adapters are fully seated in their respective connections and that they are supported models and for the computer and display. Refer to these articles to assist you with adapter compatibility and further configuration information:
Monitor and Display Adapter Table
About Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapters
Apple Mini DisplayPort adapters: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Thunderbolt ports and displays: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Remove all display cable extenders, KVM switches, or other like devices and retest to determine if the issue is resolved.
Try unplugging the video adapter or cable and then plug it back in.
If more than one video adapter is in use (or "daisy-chained"), troubleshoot by using only one adapter.
Example: A mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter connected to a DVI to HDMI adapter is an unsupported configuration because there is a series of adapters in use.
If available, try using a different display and or adapter (or use a different connector by using DVI instead of VGA, for instance).
Reset the systemYou can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.Reset the resolutionStart by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
Start up in Safe Mode.
From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
Restart your computer.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

40% cpu spike when scrolling
When I start to scroll rapidly in Safari, Finder, and other apps, the cpu load bumps up by a massive 40% (WindowServer).
Isn't this load supposed to be handled by the GPU? What's wrong?
I'm on a Mid 2009 Macbook Pro, 8 GB RAM, SSD. Everything worked flawlessly in Mavericks....is that with every patch or just when you select a random patch after you opened the concert and then it's o.k.?...
i'm asking because i have a similar issue: when i open my concert the cpu spikes when i hit a pad (that's connected to my looper plugin)...after that the system/mainstage is 100% fine, meaning i don't have any peaks or crashes or whatever...my workaround is that right after i opened the concert i hit various pads on different controllers (different midi channels) and let the system/mainstage peak and after that it's o.k...it seems like mainstage needs a "wake up call" and then behaves "normal"... -

It's given you far longer service than many of us get, and may be a new record around here for cycle count! -

Put my macbook pro to sleep. When I opened it, the desktop window is small and I can't resize it. All applications now run in the smaller size window. Can't make it fill the screen. Just switched from windows. Thank you.
Check to see if the resolution has been changed in System Preferences.

Does keeping a macbook pro plugged in even when fully charged damage the battery in any way?
Does keeping a macbook pro plugged in even when fully charged damage the battery?
no it will not, your battery stops charging when it reaches 100%. you can verify this if you'd like to through system report - power.
once in a while however, it's best to use it under it's own power and charge it back up once it's down to 75% to keep the battery in optimal condition. -
I have a problem with using MacBook Pro as wifi router when connected to ethernet
I have a problem with using MacBook Pro as wifi router when connected to ethernet. The Airport icon changes to show a laptop inside, my iPad shows connected (I think) but Safari will not operate. I tried pinging my iPad, it seems to see the iPad, but no connection to Safari or to other apps such as Good on the iPad. I have read many posting and tried repeatedly via Sharing in Systems Preferences, but no luck. Suggestions to fix, or is this a Lion problem?
Usually this is a problem related to the domain name server address. If you open Network preferences, select your Ethernet port then click on the Advanced button then on the DNS tab. You will likely see an entry like 10.0.1.1 already listed. Click on the Add [-] button and enter 208.67.222.222 then click on the OK button and then on the Apply button. See if this helps.
if it does not help then repeat the above but with the Airport port. -

I don't know why, but I am constantly having cpu spikes when running Logic Pro 9.
I am using plugins like waves, blue cat audio and some midi drums with kontakt 5.
I did freeze ALL the tracks, put some plugins on bypass, but nothing worked.
Is there any solution on this?
I am running on a Mac Mini Server (Mid 2011), witch has an 128GB SSD Corsair + 500GB HD 7200RPM, 8GB of RAM and a 2.0Ghz i7 Quad-Core.You cán do something, because from your screenshot I can see that you are using the Source Only freeze mode (Blue freeze button) for your audio tracks - this in fact does not alter the load on the CPU at all, since all inserted plugins still have to process the exact same audio anyway in source only mode. Youcan readabout that in the part of the manual I linked to.
In short: you need to use Pre Fader freeze mode (Green freeze button) instead, so the plugins also get included in the frozen file, and are bypassed after freezing (even though they stay "lit", as if they're not bypassed, but they are).
http://documentation.apple.com/en/logicpro/usermanual/index.html#chapter=9%26sec tion=16%26tasks=true
Also, in my opinion you are using too many similar plugins (GEQ, Channel EQ, Multipressor) on the same channel strip(s). Multipressor for instance is CPU intensive. Same goes for many of the Waves stuff, much of it is CPU heavy, especially plugins that emulate classic hardware. -
My Macbook Pro won't charge when it's on, only charges VERY slowly when it is shutdown
My Macbook Pro won't charge when it's on. It only charges VERY slowly when it is shutdown. Recently when it was charging shutdown, I could not get it to turn on. The only way it turned on was by removing the charger from the Macbook Pro. This only happene one time but still wondering what is going on with this battery.
Thanks for the help!First see the MagSafe troubleshooting tips:Apple Portables: Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters and check to see that all looks ok. You might want to try using another charger in case the charger is faulty. If that doesn't help, take the MacBook Pro and charger to an Apple store genius bar and have the technicians test the system to see where the fault is.

WCS shows incorrect AP names on the heat maps
After priming nine APs, removing them from the system, installing them, and firing them up, I noticed that some of the names of the APs shown on the WCS heatmap are incorrect. The names shown start with "AP" followed by the AP MAC address. I made sur
