Mid 2010 13-inch MBP kernel panics

I started having kernel panics maybe about a year ago.  It used to be very sporadically but now it's happening more often (the last three within a week of each other I think).  The computer is also fairly slow nowadays.  I ran the Apple Hardware Test and everything was okay and also downloaded and ran MemTest and it was fine.  The Kernel Panic errors seem to always have this mutex/spinlock error as seen below.  I'm not doing anything particular or intensive when they happen.  One time it happened when it was idle.  The Genuis said I multitask too much but I don't think so and I normally don't run too many things that should stress the memory.  Usually have Thunderbird, Firefox, Chrome, iTunes, Preview, Adobe Reader open and some non-intensive program.

Kernel panics are usually caused by hardware issues.  Make sure all of your hardware peripherals (drivers) are up to date if applicable.
Try the suggestions in articles - Mac OS X: "Broken folder" icon, prohibitory sign, or kernel panic when computer starts
Kernel Panics? Don't panic too!
"You need to restart your computer" (kernel panic) message appears (Mac OS X v10.5, 10.6)

  • How to stop MBP mid 2010 having lots of Kernel Panics?

    I got my first MBP in mid 2010...by that time it was the high end 15' MBP (Processor  2.66 GHz Intel Core i7, Memory  4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, Graphics  NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M 512 MB). After 4-5 months of purchasing it I started having a lot of crashes out of the blue (so called Kernel Panic). First, I thought it was related to the iDVD app, but later it was crashing randomly. At Apple Store they formatted the computer, repaired permissions and all that kind of stuff, no luck. After that Apple made a complete restoration of the entire system, no luck. Apple then changed the HD, no luck. Then they said it should be something on the logic board, but the store manager was kindly enough to replace the laptop for a completely new one!!! After Mavericks came out (might be just a coincidence) I started having crashes again. At first, they were very rare so I didn't care that much. However, it started to crash all the time that make it impossible to work with (5 times in a row). I decided to take the computer to an Apple authorised repair shop. After running all the tests they told me that the HD data cable and also the HD was failing. Replaced it all by myself, which was very easy, installed OS 10.9.5 and guess what? Still crashing...I tried all sorts of tests: 1) Run the OS from an external HD, crashes! 2) reinstall the system many times, crashes! 3) I did not install any third party apps, still crashes!....and no luck whatsoever....as a matter of fact it crashes most frequently with Safari app previous ones and now the 7.1 version. After researching I noticed that this model might have a problem with the graphics (which was no detected in the Apple authorised repair shop, cause I asked the representative many times about it)... After all this, I guess the problem could be a bug with Mavericks (but that could be just a coincidence) or this MBP model was destined to suffer from this and it is just a matter of "when" it will happen (maybe poor graphics?). I'm felling frustrated and hopeless....Any thoughts to stop this problem will be much appreciated. Thanks,

    Thanks in advance for any help! I hope I got right all the info you requested. There you go:

  • Samsung 840 pro 512 GB SSD for Mid 2010, 15-inch MBP 2.66 GHZ with 8GBRAM

    Hi All,
    My MBP configuration is as follows:
    I presently have CRUCIAL M4 256MB SSD.  It is there for past 2 years no issues.  Now I need more room as am planning to create windows partition with VS2012 with TFS.   I am planning of Samsung 840 pro 512gb.    My questions are as follows:
    A) Does this work on Mid 2010, 15inch 2.66GHz with 8GB Ram (above configuration) MBP?
    B) Will it be faster than my CRUCIAL M4 256GB.?
    How much it will cost.? who is the reliable retailer in Singapore.?
    Thanks and regards
    Ramki

    The graphics processor of your MacBook is failing. Not so surprising for this particular model, I'm afraid.

  • Installing a ssd into a mid 2010 15 inch MBP with a clean Mavericks install

    I have the above mentioned computer, and it is beginning to show signs of hard drive issues.  I have tried to repair it with disk utilities, but it won't and says I need to reformat.  The current hard drive is a seagate hybrid with a little ssd and a 750 gb 7200 rpm drive (the original drive was cloned over, so this hard drive's software has been in use through updates and new OS's for a little over three years now).  I am running Mavericks now with no problems, but I wanted to do this before a catastrophic oops.  To be honest, the hard drive probably isn't bad, just had some os read/write errors over the years that have built up (probably because this was my first mac and I did not know how to use it at first). 
    How do I go about upgrading to the ssd?  Do I need to make a bootable usb stick so I can format the new drive and boot enough to download mavericks from the app store or does mavericks keep a portion of itself in the computer memory so it can help recover from a hard drive crash?
    Honestly, I don't know what other questions to ask (yet). 
    David

    The easiest way would be to put the SSD into a 2.5 enclosure then boot into the Recovery partition by holding down Command and R at boot. Use disk utility to prep the new drive then install to it.
    Those few errors you're talking about could be due to a faulty SATA cable. That will really show itself with an SSD, so if you get a lot of errors after moving the SSD in, that's a likely culprit.
    By the way, the easiest way to do this if you don't need a clean install is with Carbon Copy Cloner. Just clone your existing drive to the SSD.

  • This Question is at least 2.5 years old.  But still an issue.  I have an early 2008 and mid 2010 13 inch macbook pro running iTunes 10.7.  Itunes on both machines doesn't recognize blank cds or allow me to import from a music cd when I insert it.

    iTunes does not use the .xml it uses the .itl
    If you are sure your old library file migrated across (does the file size and modification dates suggest it has?) start iTunes while holding down the option/alt key and guide it to the .itl file to get it to use that one.

  • Type of battery -- mid 2010 13-inch macbook; and how soon do I need to replace dead battery?

    I'm trying to replace the battery on my mid 2010 13-inch Macbook. I'm not sure what kind of battery I need to get, and can't seem to find any indication in "System Information". It's a "MacBook7,1" with Intel Core 2 Duo and Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz. I found this battery on amazon: "Apple MacBook Pro 13 Inch Mid 2010 Battery 60Wh, 5500mAh". Will it work? Do I need to get one with a particular power capacity, or anything like that?
    I'm also wondering how quickly I need to get the problem fixed. My computer stopped working yesterday unless plugged into a power source. I don't really want to send it away to get it fixed, as I have a lot of work I need to do on it over the course of the next week. If I buy a battery online, wait for it to arrive, and install it (a process that will probably take at least 4-5 days), will I be leaving it too long? Or is it OK to continue just running my computer off the mains for now?
    Thanks!

    PS: here's some other info I found, after my earlier post timed-out:
    See how a determined DIY user with some skills & abilities could dissect & replace battery:
    https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/MacBook+Unibody+Model+A1342+Battery+Replacement/166 7
    Example of what new replacement battery looks like, for your Mac; w/ part number:
    http://www.battery-center.net/apple-macbook-unibody-13-battery.html
    Find an Apple Authorized Service Provider
    Visit an Apple Retail Store
    An Apple Store or Authorized Apple service provider could replace the battery
    for the cost of the part, and a fee for the tech time. This may vary by location.
    Hopefully this helps. The part is not considered 'user replaceable' but it is possible.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • MBP Kernel Panics, log posted, ideas?

    MBP kernel panics and panic log
    I received a MBP at the end of march, build week 10, 2.0 GHz, 2 GB of kensington memory added. I have been getting occasional kernel panics (screen greys, computer asks for restart), mostly while running itunes through an airport express/extreme network to my home stereo. Sunday, I ran apple hardware test in looping mode for 4 hours, no indicated problem. Then, I ran Memtest in single user mode for 3 hours, with no indicated problem. No noise problems that my 51 year old ears can hear, no automatic restarts, but the computer does get much hotter than my old trusty 1 GHz Ti PB.
    Below is the panic log. Any of experts around here have suggestions? Hate to send in the 'puter if I don't have to.
    thanks,
    Jack

    I had issues with my previous PowerBook G4. It would all the suddent get very hot. I suspected that something was not right with the CPU cooling. I opened up the PowerBook and found one of the screws that would hold the cooling assembly down loose. after tightening that screw the temperatures returned to normal...
    I can imagine that your MBP has something similar going on as well. Or maybe your environment is hotter that mine here. I work at a pretty well air conditioned place, so my laptops always run very cool here.

  • Can I use this hard drive for my Mid 2010 13 Inch Macbook Pro?

    http://www.crucial.com/store/modelpart.aspx?model=MacBook%20Pro%20(13-inch,%20Mi d%202010)&imodule=ST1000LM024#pr-header-back-to-top-link
    My macbook model is 7.1
    I thought this would work but i just read one of the reviews and it says :
    "CP specs state this is compatible with my mid 2010 Macbookpro 7.1, but it is not. I found this out after taking the computer and drive to the Apple store. OK, it's not so much CP specs that are wrong as the Apple folk took some time before coming up with the problem. Not all, but SOME of the 2010 systems with 2.4Ghz were never intended to use a 1Tb drive, and that means the OS will not mount properly."
    Now im not sure if its just his problem, or all Mid 2010 MBPs that have this issue.

    I have to question the premise of the review that you are citing.  Any 2.5" SATA HDD should work in your MBP.  Capacity is not an issue.  You might call the technical staff at OWC and pose this query to them.  I am confident that they will respond the same way I have.
    Ciao.

  • MacBook Pro (mid 2010, 15 inch) keeps restarting itself

    The Genius Bar said the last thing I could try before sending it in was wiping the hard drive and reinstalling the OS, which I think I did correctly. However, the problem is still there. The computer seems to restart whenever it has to "think" too hard. Instead of freezing or getting the pinwheel, it just restarts. I can provide the latest panic report if anyone can make heads or tails of that.

    Yes, please post your latest panic log. The 15-inch mid-2010 model was besieged with a variety of problems and you may be the victim of the defective GPU installed in some models.

  • MacBook Pro mid-2010 15-inch Supports Monitor at 720p but not 1080p

    Hello all,
    Systems Specs:
    MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2010)
    Processor: 2.53 GHz Intel Core i5
    Memory: 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Startup Disk: Macintosh HD
    Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M 256 MB
    I am attempting to connect my MBP to a new Asus VE278Q, 27inch 1920x1080. I use a mini-display port to HDMI monoprice cable. I can connect at 720p and the display looks fine. When I switch to 1080p the monitor flickers and turns to snow within a few seconds. My parents' 2013 MBP, using the same cable, can connect to the monitor and display perfectly.
    The technical specs for a mid-2010 MBP say that it can support  "up to 2560 by 1600 pixels on an external display." It should be able to support this monitor easily. I have also tried to connect it to a Sony 1080p TV, where it registered as black screen.
    Does anyone have any idea what is going on? Is there something wrong with my graphics card?

    Under the keyboard, hey? So you have a Titanium Powerbook. You should update your profile to include the model and CPU size of your Powerbook to help get more accurate assistance. Crucial is a reputable brand of RAM. They also offer a lifetime warranty.
    The clips: I used to have a Titanium Powerbook, but it was a few years ago. If MY memory serves me right the clips move to the outside of the RAM modules. Due to the heat and never being removed they may have semi-welded themselves into position. One trick would be to heat the computer up and try to remove them while it is warm/hot. Just plug it in and run some CPU intensive apps for a while, then turn it off, remove the battery, ground the computer and give them another try. Grounding (earthing) the computer to remove static is not difficult. After you have removed the battery just touch the metal case and grab a metal window or door frame. That will ground any static in the machine. Also, if you are working on carpet take your shoes and socks off to avoid more static build up. You could even go as far to stand on a rubber bathroom mat while working on the computer, but replacing RAM should only take a few minutes. If you still have difficulties getting the RAM stick out go to a site called The Powerbook Medic and look for tips on removing sticks from a Titanium.
    Hope the new RAM stops the panics.
    SR.

  • Macbook MID-2012 crashing every day (Kernel Panic)

    Hi!
    I hope I'll find some help here.
    My new Macbook (MID 2012) is crashing everyday. I read that this might be a RAM issue (maybe due to the fact that I installed 16GB 1600Mhz of Crucial), but this would really surprise me because I only got this issue after some weeks of the RAM replacement. In some cases I need to restart my MB a couple of times to get it run again. Also pretty weird, I got a similar issue when using Ableton Live, my trackpad an my keyboard freezes (computer continue working), and then I need to restart it a couple of times, and one of the two USB holes isn't working anymore (and to get it work again I need to reboot it again). For information : I have an USB hub with a MIDI keyboard connected, an external HDD, an USB Key, a Dongle, a Keyboard and a Mouse. I'm also using an external Audio Card, connected to the second USB hole, and a 27'' Screen. I really would like to reproduce theses crashes, but it's always happening at some random moment (not necesseraly due to a RAM overloard or so) Maybe some issue in my configuration.... Any thoughts ?
    Thanks in Advance !

    Before you do anything, finc and remove the following kernel extension:
    com.avira.kext.FileAccessControl          1.0.0d1
    ...it could be anywhere but your root System>Library>Extensions would be a good place to start. If you can't find it, download the free "EasyFind" from the Mac App Store and search for "avira." Once you move the kext (to a Desktop folder, for example) reboot and see if you're still having kernel panics.
    Good luck,

  • Installing Windows 8.1 on a Mid-2010 13-inch MB Pro, with an iso file.

    Hi Everyone,
    My first post, so bare with me.
    I'm hoping to get some help here, after almost trying everthing on the menu.
    What im looking for is an explanation on how i can get Windows 8.1 installed on my MB Pro, with the use on iso file. I have downloaded, the necesarry BootCamp Drivers etc. When i launch the Bootcampassistant the only options I am able to choose from are: 1: Download the latest Windows support software from Apple and 2: Install Windows 7.
    If any of have the solution to my problem, please do comment.
    Thanks,
    HB

    Read the Boot Camp guides, especially the Boot Camp system requirements located here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634.
    The system requirements for your computer indicate that your computer does not suppot Windows 8.1.

  • MacBook Pro mid-2012 : Slow. Sudden kernel panics. Random Restarts.

    My mid 2012 MacBook Pro 15" (Running Mavericks) has recently been getting slower, performance-wise. Apps such as Safari, MS Office and OSX Mail are increasingly frequently - not always -  hanging and performing sluggishly.
    The sudden kernel panics are now causing me headaches. It's frequently when I am composing email messages in Mail when the system freezes, the cursor vanishes and I have to hold down the power key to force restart.
    Usually the system will restart and shortly thereafter, suddenly shut down and restart.
    The underside of the laptop is extremely hot to touch. I cannot hear the fan.
    I have been in touch with Apple online support who suggested a number of possible fixes, which I tried. These seemed to make little difference. I have not however taken the final suggestion to wipe my machine entirely and reinstall Mavericks. I am now feeling I should do this. If any helpful soul here could provide me with any insight or advice, I would be terribly grateful. Should it be of any help, I am pasting my last crash report below. Many thanks
    Edit: It happened again just while I was writing this! Grey startup screen had strips of white text on black bars all the way down the left side. What on earth is the matter with this laptop!

  • MBP kernel panics on startup - won't get past grey screen

    So out of nowhere my unibody MBP (specs, etc below) locked up yesterday while I was watching a video using VLC.  It stopped responding to anything so I held down the power button until it turned off.  I waited about 10 minutes and turned it back on.  Grey screen with spinning cog showed up for about a minute and then kernel panic.  Held down power button until it turned off.  Tried repeatedly - same results.  Won't boot into Safe Mode - still get a kernel panic everytime.  It will let me boot the machine into Target Disk Mode.  It will boot from my Snow Leopard install disk where I ran Disk Utility and "repaired disk" and "repaired disk permissions" on both the drive and the volume.  All the "repair disk" and "repair disk permissions" ended with messages in green type saying that the disk/permissions appear to be OK.
    I have an external FW drive used for TM backups for the machine.  A fair amount of data has been added since the last TM backup (which was less than 30 days ago) that, ideally, I'd like to not lose by resorting to restoring from a TM backup.  It's not the end of the world if the last (roughly) 30 days of data/changes ends up being lost, but I'm willing to work on getting it back up and running without doing an erase and install and then restoring from a TM backup if at all possible.
    Definitely if any other information or data is needed from me in order for anyone to assist, please let me know what it is and I'll do my best to provide it.
    All help/assistance is greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance!

    As (bad) luck would have it, I don't have the discs that came with the machine .  Isn't that always the way?
    At any rate, I figured that would be a suggestion and searched the web for looking to see if what I need (AHT) could possibly be downloaded.  Looks like some folks have found a way/location to download AHT from the web from some of the posts I've seen, but I've come up empty handed.
