My Macbook Pro restarts all the time.

I have a Macbook Pro and I have been having nothing but trouble with it since I bought it from a rental company.  The first trouble I had with it is anytime I wanted to add my music files to it I would end up having to restore and reinstall Mountain Lion.  I have had to reinstall Mountain Lion several times in the last two weeks.  If its not needign to be restored it is consitantly restarting on me.  Does anyone know what could be causing this to happen and how would I fix it?

If you haven't done this yet, I would recommend erasing the hard drive and reinstalling Mountain Lion fresh. Then reinstall any applications from scratch. Don't use Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant to import anything from your backups... copy only the specific data that you need manually to the new system.
If you have done that, or try it and it doesn't help, my bet would be that you have hardware problems.

  • Leaving Macbook Pro on all the time (as a desktop)

    Hey guys, I have a 2010 Macbook Pro 17" and I'm thinking about transitioning it to a more sedentary lifestyle and turning it into my desktop. I currently use a PC as my home desktop, but it's old, slowing down, and uses Windows.
    I have a few questions as I consider this move.
    1) Will I need to keep the screen open on the laptop all the time? I think that MBPs dissipate their heat through the front/keyboard, so if I do find a workaround to keep it closed all the time, will my laptop overheat?
    2) If I leave my MBP on all the time and plugged into an outlet constantly, will that drain my battery? I like keeping my main desktop on all the time as I do a lot of downloading, use it as a media server, and also like to access my desktop remotely. For the rare instance I want to unplug the MBP from the desktop setup, will I have any battery left to use?
    The reason why I ask is because I'm thinking about two main options. The new iMacs are rumored to be coming out by the end of this month and I might just get that to replace my PC. However, I am thinking about holding off for the next generation of Macbook Airs (whenever that is) and just purchasing that, while turning my current MBP into a functional desktop. What is the downside of the using a MBP as a desktop instead of an iMac?
    Please let me know what you guys think and recommend, and if anyone else uses this setup, please let me know how it is! Thanks!

    1. Yes, it's possible to close the lid and keep the computer going - there are several threads on this if you search.
    Although the MBP vents out the back when the lid is closed, heat does dissipate through through the top (meaning around the keyboard/speakers/trackpad/etc) also. Feel with your the top of your hands the aluminum when you computer is working hard and you will feel the heat - closing the lid will limit this heat escaping to a degree. So while it's likely fine to run the MBP with the lid closed, if it were me I would raise the lid up a few inches when the computer is using high CPU or the fans are working hard. (By the way, if you've been to an apple store, you will see that their laptops are fitted with little plastic bumpers so that when the lid is closed it doesn't close all the way - it could be to prevent sleeping, but instead of modding all their computers they could have just turned off sleep on lid close.)
    2. As previously stated, it is good to power cycle your battery every month or so to keep it healthy. This is the nature of Li-ion batteries. Just unplug it and let it "die" once and a while. Leaving it plugged in most of the time won't destroy your battery.
    Regarding iMac : It may have a better screen than whatever you currently have - they are stunning. Additionally, the current iMacs are more powerful than your 2010 MBP. But if you do decide to go that direction, I would agree that it may be best to wait till the iMacs come out with the improved Sandy Bridge i7's. If you don't need much horsepower, any of the 3 options will work - why not try out your 2010 MBP as your desktop for a bit and see how you like it, in the meantime you can see when the iMac comes out and compare that to your MBP desktop replacement/new MB Air idea.

    The only thing that I see in common is this non-Apple kernel extension:
    com.trusteer.driver.gakl_driver_2 1
    Do you know what it is or what it's for? Try finding it (usual place to look is root System>Library>Extensions, but it could be anywhere) and dragging it to the Desktop and then restarting without it loading. Still having kernel panics? Call back...

  • MacBook Pro crashes all the time since installing Yosemite

    My MacBook pro has become almost unusable since I installed Yosemite.  I have a mid-2010 model MacBook Pro.  It spontaneously shuts off and reboots itself very frequently-- so frequently I can't get anything done.  It doesn't seem to matter what I am doing or which applications I am running.  I ran TechTool Pro and it repaired some files and permissions.   However, it's still spontaneously shutting off and rebooting just like before.   I'm starting to wonder if my machine is on its way out.  Can anyone help?

    Thank you for responding!   I ran Etrecheck and here's the report:
    Problem description:
    MacBook Pro (mid-2010 version) spontaneously shuts down and reboots very frequently since installing Yosemite.

  • Macbook Pro freezes all the time

    Hi,
    I have a fairly new early 2011 Macbook Pro 13". It has been running perfectly fine until about last Wednesday. Now whenever I try to do anything, I get the spinning beach ball of death. It does'nt matter what program it is, I always get it. My HDD, which is the standard 500GB, only has 174GB used, so it is not an issue of being too full. My laptop fell off my desk in class on Tuesday, but was in my Speck hard shell case, which snapped, but there was not a scratch on the laptop. Now it is not really working. Could my HDD be failing for some reason?
    Thanks,
    Tyler

    Have you tried repairing the hard drive?
    Repair the Hard Drive - Lion
    Boot from your Lion Recovery HD. 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, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    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.
    If the above doesn't help any then reinstall OS X:
    Reinstalling 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: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

  • Macbook Pro freezes ALL THE TIME...not even a month old

    What is the deal? I got the Macbook Pro because it was supposed to be the best computer, and literally I can't do anything on it beause it is constantly frozen with the spinning color wheel. I HATE it. It's the most non productive notebook i have ever purchased. I have a slighly older version of the macbook pro and it works just fine. The only problems I have ever had with the older version started after I updated the software. Now the old macbook freezes occasionally, but nothing like the new one.
    Is it just a problem with Apple's new software???

    That is definitely not normal, but it's very difficult to say what the problem might be without more information.  Open Activity Monitor and look at the System Memory tab.  Compare page outs to page ins.  If page outs are more than 10% of the page ins, you're having memory problems and need more RAM.
    How much hard drive space do you have free?  If you don't have about 10% of your drive free, you can start having all kinds of strange problems.
    Try starting up in safe mode...  do the problems happen in that mode?

  • Help - I just installed Mountain Lion and now my MacBook Pro crashes all the time

    Hi everyone. I've recently installed Mountain Lion on my MacBook Pro and now it randomly crashes. I tried finding the pattern (maybe when I open a specific app, or go through a series of steps) but nothing, it just happens, and it feels random.

    Mid-2010 15" MacBook Pros - the bad NVIDIA GPU
    If you're having frequent kernel panics with your 15" mid-2010, or intermittent screen problems, the problem is, more than likely, the faulty NVIDIA GPU found in a number of those machines.
    Here's just a sample of a kernel panic log that points to the faulty NVIDIA card:

    Here's the "official" Apple take on the issue - but the very real kernel panics need not be preceded by 'Intermittent black screen or loss of video'... in fact, you might not experience any video problems at all. Although video problems can certainly be a portent of things to come…
    So what can you do? Print out a copy of your kernel panic and a copy of the Knowledge Base article and take them, along with your machine, to your local Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. They should be more than willing to install a new logic board at no cost. I have no idea why this faulty GPU is making the headline here on the MacBook Pro forum so often now - could it be because Mountain Lion is just bringing the issue to a head more readily? I don't know - I only know that we're seeing more and more of these kernel panics of late.
    Good luck,

  • My brand new macbook pro freezes ALL the time

    Without even one single app running, this piece of garbage will freeze. I get the spinning pinwheel even when I open Finder. I have updated all software, don't game, never run more than two apps at a time, the two being iTunes and Safari.
    I don't know what to do, I've had the notebook for literally less than a month and a half, and I am SO SO SO disappointed to the point that I hate it and want to break it. I have about 5 minutes from startup before I have to hard restart the computer, and once I do, it just stays frozen once it wakes back up.
    I am at a loss, and any other message board I find is from 2011, where the "update" is that Apple has fixed the issue. My computer is by definition a worthless and useless two thousand dollar piece of machinery that I can't even use for longer than 5 minutes. I will not be purchasing another macbook. I just need to know how to deal with this one.

    You are still under warranty.  Call Apple Care, get a case number and keep it handy.

  • My 2010 Macbook Pro crashes all the time.

    It either freezes to a complete restart (giving me the grey screen, but still starting up again after a press of a button) or it hangs and goes back to the login screen.
    Some things to note:
    The macbook has 8gb ram instead of the 4gb it came with.
    It has a samsung 840 500gb SSD installed.
    The OS is a complete reinstall from januari after I had similar problems I reinstalled the OS completely.

    DaanLochs,
    I don’t know whether the 840’s firmware suffered from the same flaw as the 840 EVO’s firmware did. The Samsung SSD firmware page shows that the 840’s latest firmware is from March 2014; if yours is older than that, you could download the 840’s firmware package and its instruction manual, burn a bootable DVD from the firmware package, and boot from the DVD to update your SSD’s firmware.

    If you are using Lion:
    Dealing With The Resume Feature of Lion
    Managing Mac OS X Lion's application resume feature.
    If you shutdown your computer you should get a dialog asking if you want applications to resume on the next startup. Simply uncheck the box to prevent that from occurring. Open General preferences and uncheck the option to Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps. You can also install a third-party utility to control resume features on individual applications: RestoreMeNot or Application State Cleaner.
    It is possible to completely stop the Resume feature although I'm unconvinced that it is that annoying. Nevertheless see the following:
    If you have not yet done so you must first make your /Home/Library/ folder visible. Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder. At the prompt paste the following command line:
    chflags nohidden ~/Library
    Press RETURN. Quit the Terminal application.
    In the Finder navigate to the /Home/Library/Saved Application State/ folder. Delete the contents of the folder. Back up to the /Home/Library/ folder. Select the Saved Application State folder. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Sharing and Permissions panel at the bottom click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window.
    Quit all open programs except the Finder (this is very important.) Next, navigate to the /Home/Library/Preferences/ByHost/ folder. Look for a .plist file with "com.apple.loginwindow." in the file name followed by some numbers in hexadecimal. Select the file. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window and in the Sharing and Permissions panel click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window. If you also find a file with the same filename but with a last extension of ".lockfile," then you should delete it.
    The above should eliminate the Resume feature system-wide. Note that any future system updates or upgrades will likely undo these changes. You will then need to repeat this procedure assuming there are no major changes in OS X related to it.

    If I backup my iPad to my new MacBook pro will all the apps be saved?

    All of your content should be transferred to the new Mac when you sync. However, if you want to be safe, you can select the transfer purchases options, then sync the iPad.
    Read this article about syncing. There is a section in the article that states that all of your purchased content may not transfer over to new Mac when you sync. I have NEVER had that problem when syncing but the article does talk about transferring purchases just in case. Not a bad idea really ... better to be safe than sorry!

  • Satellite A300D restarts all the time

    Hi,
    My Toshiba Satellite A300D 14P restarts all the time and i cant do anything!
    I turned it off last night and today when i pressed the power button it worked for 1-2 secs and then did a restart again and again.
    My display doesn't show anything (because it works only for 1-2 secs).
    Any ideas?

    On this virtual way it is not easy to say what the problem is and Im afraid you need professional help with this issue. Maybe you should contact nearest Toshiba service provider and let them check your notebook.
    Problem is that your options are very limited and all you can try is to check if notebook will starts with or without RAM, HDD or battery. Problem is that nothing is shown on the screen and you dont have even access to BIOS settings.
    It must be some serious hardware related issue.
