myhomebr,
some 15-inch Mid 2010 MacBook Pros are known to have a defect in their NVIDIA GPU; the presence of GPU faults on yours suggests that your discrete GPU might have this defect. Apple had a gratis servicing program for this defect for three years from the date of purchase; they still offer the servicing, but it is no longer guaranteed to be gratis. If you have an Apple store nearby, you might consider making an appointment with them to have them run a video hardware test on your MacBook Pro, to see if its NVIDIA GPU has the defect.

  • How to reboot a macbook pro that stops at grey screen

    My wife's macbook pro, 2010 circa, is not rebooting.  With three attempted power-ups she gets a grey screen with the Apple logo...

    In answer to your question, have you tried using
    Disk Utility?
       1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
       2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
          Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
       3. Click the First Aid tab.
       4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
       5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
       6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk.
    Then, if you can, reboot to your internal drive and repair permissions.

  • How to Solve Windows 8 Metro App Crash on Macbook Pro 2010 13"

    There is a known problem
    (See http://www.onebitzero.com/how-to-fix-metro-apps-from-crashing-under-nvidia-beta- driver-296-17-in-windows-8/ )
    that many notebooks equipped with nVIDIA GPU and running Windows 8 will crash some Modern UI (Metro) apps,
    including Game, Camera, Remote Desktop, ... apps.
    My MacBook Pro 2010 13" has an nVIDIA GeForce 320M.
    I installed Windows 8 Pro RTM gotten from DreamSpark Premium and Boot Camp Software 3.2 on my MacBook Pro.
    Unfortunately, I met the Modern UI app crash problem.
    I fought against this problem two days and almostly surrended.
    Unbelievablely, I could solve it.
    Yes. We can simply solve the crash problem by installing the latest 301.42 driver download from nvidia.com.
    But it is not perfect: we will find we can't adjust the brightness anymore.
    I also tried many methods, including modifies .inf files and change permissions but all are failed.
    Except one for which I got an idea from Windows Event Viewer.
    I found I got an error event when I launched the problematic Modern UI app. For example,
    "Faulting application name: wwahost.exe, version: 6.2.9200.16384, time stamp: 0x50107c6e
    Faulting module name: nvd3dumx.dll, version: 8.17.11.9682, time stamp: 0x4b884f8a"
    (Attention! The following steps are at your risks.
    Or you may not try it.)
    The steps to solve the crash problem and simultanously preserve the brightness adjustment function are:
    1. Download the latest 301.42 driver from nvidia.com. Then, click it to extract files to C:\
    and we don't install it.
    2. Copy the Boot Camp nVIDIA driver files from "13-inch MacBook Pro Mac OS X Install DVD,"
    ie. this folder:
    (DVD drive):\Boot Camp\Drivers\NVidia\Vista-Win7_64
    3. Replace the older nvd3dumx.dl_ with the newer one.
    I.e. overwrite
    Boot Camp\Drivers\NVidia\Vista-Win7_64\nvd3dumx.dl_
    by
    C:\NVIDIA\DisplayDriver\301.42\WinVista_Win7_64\International\Display.Driver\nvd 3dumx.dl_
    4. Follow this tutorial to turn off driver integrity check:
    http://www.killertechtips.com/2009/05/05/disable-driver-signing-windows-7/
    and reboot.
    5. Install the modified driver by clicking
    Boot Camp\Drivers\NVidia\Vista-Win7_64\setup.exe
    6. Reboot your computer and good luck.

    The method described above is too complex.
    I found a more easy way to solve the Modern app crash problem.
    That is to download the legacy driver 296.10 here
    http://www.geforce.com/drivers/beta-legacy
    Unfortunately, 296.10 and 19x don't solve all problems on Windows 8:

  • MAcBook Pro (2010) i7 17" Strange problem (filesystem crash)

    About month ago I changed my 1 year old MBP 2009 to MacBook Pro 2010 17" i7 one. I moved SSD (Patriot KOI 256GB) and 8GB of RAM to new device. I have noticed strange problem - sometimes filesystem crashes. When application ask to reboot system (because of reboot or instalation) sometimes system refuse to start - it shows progress bar similar to the one shown when going back from deep sleep. Or I can hear bell (standard one) but after this system powers off. The only way to have system working back is to use Disc Warrior to repair it because Disk Utility from install DVD can't repair filesystem and suggest to reinstall it and take data from backup.
    I have no such problems with previous device. It happens even on fresh system for example just after installing Norton Internet Security (when installer asked for permission to reboot). I have no sudden hangs, no other problems at all.
    Any suggestions?
    During month it happens about 10 times. I even prepared my rescue USB with installed system and Disk Warrior.
    Hardware test goes without problems. SMART status of drive is ok.

    You can ignore the advice of nearly all the long-time contributors to these Discussions and keep Norton utilities on your Mac, but I guarantee that every time you mention Norton anything in these forums, you will be advised to remove it completely. Perhaps it isn't responsible for your present problem, but I'm certainly not convinced of that, and because Norton software is a well-known cause of trouble in OS X, I suspect many other people reading this thread won't be convinced either.
    When you reinstalled the OS on your new machine, did you do so from the DVDs that came with it? Did you completely erase the hard drive?

  • MacBook Pro (2010) hanging for 30 seconds after sleep

    I have a 13" MacBook Pro (2010), which I've owned since June. When I got it, I installed the 640GB Samsung HDD that I had in my previous 15" MacBook Pro (I also reinstalled OS X on the drive and restored my data from a backup)
    The problem is that when I open the lid and wake it from sleep, the display turns on and shows the desktop, but the computer is unresponsive for about 30 seconds. That is, the mouse cursor isn't there and no keyboard inputs are recognised. After 30 seconds or so, the mouse cursor appears and it's back to normal again.
    I've tried making a new user account and the problem remains with that, and I've also installed 10.6 again and restored my data, and I still have the problem.
    Could it be anything to do with the 640GB HDD, even though it worked absolutely fine with my 15" MBP? Or is there anything else I can try?
    Many thanks!

    You can try resetting and PRAM
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    I would not suspect this will help, but easy enough to do, and with any luck...
    What about a Safe Boot, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564
    does the problem persist? Then Reboot?

    I am trying to connect my Macbook pro 2010 to my Samsung HDTV using a mini display port to hdtv cable. Trying to play a slide show in IPhoto but I only get sound with no picture. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    I keep saying this over and over, in the hope that people who do a search will find it.  Apple cannot possibly test for or be reponsible for the bazillion combinations of adapter, cables, and TV's out there.  The only monitors that are 100% guaranteed to work with the MacBook Pro are the Cinema Displays and Thunderbolt Displays, because, they're made by Apple.  They're expensive, but they work perfectly.
    My guess is that you bought a cheap MDP to HDMI cable, or have a defective one.  From my reading of these boards over the past few months, cheap cables have a high failure rate.  And the regular priced ones have only a slightly less of one.  Try a new one.  Make sure you do not damage the Thunderbolt port.

  • Where can i get the macbook pro (2010) bootcamp drivers for windows 7?

    I recently decided to install windows 7 ultimate (32-bit) on my macbook pro (2010 model). However my macbook did not come with installation disks, i know this for a fact and it came pre installed with 10.6. And when i try to download the windows support files through bootcamp assistant, it says that the download cannot continue. So where can i get these drivers from?

    All MBP's with Snow Leopard (10.6) came with an installaton disc, and that is where the drivers are, if you don't have (or didn't get) the disc contact Apple for a replacement, there is no downloadable version of BC3

  • I did a force close on Safari and after rebooting my macbook pro, i no longer see the Safari icon on the dock.  How do i get i back?

    I did a force close on Safari and after rebooting my macbook pro, i no longer see the Safari icon on the dock.  How do i get i back?

    If you can't get dragging to work, just click on Safari from your Applications folder, and it should appear in the dock. Then you can right-click on the icon and PIN it permanently there.

  • My Sandisk cruzer thumb drive 4.0GB (which is very old, roughly 10 years and I'm not sure about the model) reads "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer" when inserted in my Macbook pro 2010. How do I get it to work?

    My Macbook Pro 2010 with the latest OS does not open a particular Sandisk Cruzer 4.0GB (which is an old model, about 10 years) thumbdrive with the message "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer". Will I be able to read it on my macbook?

    Is it readable in a Windows computer?  If not then you can try Disk Utility to repair the drive-- although that may be dangerous too.
    I haven't had this problem so I out of safe ideas.  There are ustilies out there.   I used the seach term "repair flash drive Mac OS X" to locate some of these.
    If the data is essential there are pay-for services to recover data looked the price was in the range $50 - $1000
    All the best.
