Macbook Pro 2010 keeps freezing and restarting

Hi.
Last few days I have problems with my macbook pro 2010 model, running latest OS and all software. I have problems with freezing very often. Screen turns to black and after few seconds it restarts automaticly. It happens when I try to open iPhoto, surf the web (scrolling quickly). I have tried to restore OS to older state from Time Machine, but didn't help. It also shows this report:

Anyone knows what this happens or what coud be problem? I suspect my HDD, cos it always happens when the HDD is reading, or it could be RAM problem? But why now? I didn't change anything lately (only systen updates last week).
Please help. Thanks

Backup your users files regardless

Then if you can run through this list of fixes to narrow down, repair or flag your issue, then do so

If it turns out to be a hardware issue, take it to Apple.

Macbook Pro 2011 keeps freezing and disconnecting from internet

Ever since I upgraded to 10.8 Mountain Lion, my macbook has been acting up and its becoming a real big hassle.
The first big issue is it keeps freezing. Everything freezes, the only thing I can do is move my mouse cursor around but I can't open anything, everything just becomes frozen. Whenever this happens I have to hard reset my macbook and turn it on again all the time. This occurs between an hour of use to 3 days of use, its always random.
My 2nd issue is my airport keeps disconnecting, It doesn't show that its disconnected but I can never connect to anything or open any pages on google chrome or safari.
Can anyone figure out whats the source of this issue? I took it into the genius bar and they weren't even sure either, but then again they didn't do a thorough investigation they just quickly looked at it because I was runnnig short on time.

Been having the same problem since I upgraded to Mountain Lion - MBP (2011) crashing at least twice a day. I noticed that it's Chrome that crashes first, so I'm using Safari for now, so lets see if it makes any difference.

I have recently noticed that my MacBook Pro Retina keeps freezing. I first noticed that the track pad would not work for short periods of time. Is anyone else having a problem?

My MacBook Pro Retina keeps freezing up. It seems that it is happening more often as time goes on.
I first noticed that the track pad would freeze then whole computer would completly freeze.
Most annoying.
Is anyone else having a similar problem?

Hey B-bram,
For issues with video resolution not being consistent, I would start with resetting the NVRAM on your MacBook Pro. That will reset the resolution to its default as well as resetting other default settings like sound volume and start up volume. Take a look at the article below for more information about that and how to perform the NVRAM reset.
How to Reset NVRAM on your Mac

My phone keeps freezing and I have the 5s and now it won't turn on but I can talk to sir

If you can talk to Siri, but the screen is not turning on, try the 2 button reset. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake (Power) Button and the Home Button at the same time for at least 10 seconds. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If that doesn't make you screen come back on, you can try restoring your iPhone. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
iPhone hardware troubleshooting - http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Display has no backlight or dark screen
Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

My G5 iMac has a screen color problem. The color is green with lines. What can I do to repar this? Sometimes the screen will freeze and I have to reboot the computer and the screen will be normal for up to 5-6 hours and then suddenly changes back to green

Try running in Safe mode. This leaves out some video drivers. Which results in machine not using advanced video hardware.

Hello Jesslocko,
Before following the iPad Restore process make sure you have updated version of iTunes installed on your computer, to check that Open iTunes on your computer click on Help and then check for updates ( If there is any updates available then Install it ) and If you do not have iTunes Installed or if you want to directly update the version of your iTunes then Download and Install iTunes from here : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
1. Make sure your device (iPad) is unplugged (Disconnected) from your computer (this should be the computer that you use to sync your iPad or you can use any other computer with iTunes installed in it). You can leave the USB cable connected to your iPad though.
2. Turn off your iPad. Press and hold the power button on the top edge until a slider appears. Slide it from left to right to power off your device. If the slider doesn't appear (because your iOS device has frozen up) then hold the power and Home buttons down until the iPhone or iPad turns off.
3. Ensure your device has a decent amount of charge. Leave it plugged in to the mains for 10 minutes or so if you see the flat battery icon. (iPad low battery)
4. Hold down the Home button (the round button at the bottom of your iPad screen) and connect the other end of USB cable to the computer this should cause your iPhone or iPad to turn on. Keep holding the Home button until you see the iTunes and USB cable images on your iPad screen, then release the button.(iPad recovery mode)
5. In iTunes (launch the application if it isn't running on your Computer), you should see a message saying an iPad has been found in recovery mode.
6. Click OK and then click on Restore to bring your iPad to Factory settings

TS3682 on trying to reset ipod, screen now goes white, apple disappears, computer not picking up ipod, its only 5 months old

On trying to reset ipod, screen has now gone white, computer not registering it, can't turn off ipod. Its only five months old. Please help

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have downloaded ios 5.1.1 and the wifi has stop working or it would stay on for less then 20min its only 9 months old can someone explain what is happening and if some know how to fix it

I have downloaded ios 5.1.1 and the wifi has stop working or it would stay on for less then 20min its only 9 months old can someone explain what is happening and if some know how to fix it

I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

My Macbook Pro Retina keeps freezing on up...

My Macbook Pro Retina will freeze on start up just about 1 out of every 3 cold boots and it's been happening for a while now. It will start up to the log in screen and after I type in my pw and log in it will freeze with a black screen. I'll close the lid and the display stays on and I have to hard reset it for it to work again. Has this been happening to anyone else or do I maybe have a faulty macbook? Any ideas?

Hi,
I have exactly the same symptoms on my MacBook Pro Retina. It freezes with a black screen right after login, half the time. I have to hard reboot... sometimes the second boot gives the same result, and at the third boot it's ok.
I've installed gfxCardStatus to check if it's an issue related to the graphic card switch, but this hasn't given me any clues.
Sometimes my session opens normally (no freeze), but the system becomes really instable when I launch an app which makes use of the Nvidia graphic card. For example, Adobe Illustrator. In that case, Illustrator freezes and the system is slowly becoming unresponsive, even after a force kill af that application.
It's really annoying, I can't work on that machine... it's like the Nvidia graphic card is half dead.
I hope it's a software issue, not hardware.
If we could have an official answer from Apple, that would be great!
Thanks!

1 week old macbook pro 17 keeps freezing randomly?

Hi, I just bought a 17 inch 2011 early winter macbook pro a week ago and I upgraded my computer with the lion the second day. My problem started the third day of the purchase i started noticing lag in the beggining especially when i open the appstore the beach ball comes up and won't ever go away.yesterday my computer been freezing randomly i've been restarting it whenever this happens The freezes happen most frequently after the computer has been to sleep and woken up by opening the lid.. I have downloaded all the apple updates and my apps are all up to date I dont have anything on the startup,I have 690 gb free on my hard drive I tried: - deleting apps from running on the startup - no widgets - Stopping Bluetooth and wireless - not opening i tunes Nothing worked. I really don't know what to do,this is the first time i use mac.please help.

I would prefer to have acopy on Lion on a Flash memory or a DVD in order not to redownload it every time again. I guess you didn't take a copy of it after downloading from App Store and proceeded to install directly, right?
Ok, if that was the case,
- Open the App Store again, click on purchased icon on the top, you will find the Lion as installed..
- Click on purchased again while holding down options key (alt), the INSTALLED botton will be replaced by INSTALL botton.
- Click it and wait untill in downloads againg.
- After finishing download don't proceed in installing it again using the wisard. Quit the installer and go to the Applications folder, find "Install Mac OS X Lion.app", right click and select show packge contents and go to "/Contents/SharedSupport/installESD.dmg".
This is the image disk of Lion, use Disk Utility "Spotlight it" to burn it on a DVD so will have a bootable DVD which can be used to reinstall your autherized copy of lion.
- Restart your machine while holding Options key to get the boot options.
- Select the DVD, a Disk utility will appear again, use it to erase the Macintosh HD and reinstall Lion again

MBP screen keeps freezing and these pixelated lines appear...

Hi,
For the most part, I've been a happy MAC user but I have been experiencing some problems. For example, if I moved the mouse to close a program or something similar, the screen would freeze and these pixelated lines of black and white would appear, sometimes flashing. These lines would either cover a third or all of the screen. When I restarted, the lines would appear in blue right after the apple icon appears. This has been happening infrequently for the past day or so.
From browsing the internet, I've come across the GeForce 8600M GT GPU issue. I've checked and I do have this component. From Apple's article, my problem is not so much with the video, although it is really slow and intermittent at best but with the display screen (I think that's the proper term). I ran a general hardware test and all seems to be okay.
Would my problem(s) fall under this recall? Would I be eligible to get a (free) replacement? Further, is there a hardware test I could specifically run to test this? This is driving me crazy! What do you think?
Many thanks!

I reinstalled and everything seems to be working fine.
