System overload on brand new MBP 15"

Hi everyone,
Last week i bought a new 15" retina Macbook pro (2.0 Ghz quad-core i7, 8gb RAM, ssd). I mainly plan to use it for recording and mixing in Logic. With my previous macbook (13" 2011 model, the cheapest at that time) i got the system overload quite frequently. I bought this new 2000 dollar Macbook, and I still get this error.
Don't get me wrong, I understand what this error means and why it's there, it's just that I thought such an expensive machine would be able to handle this easily. There is one core that it continuously spiking and 4 others are only at 15%. My overall CPU load (according to MiniUsage) is only around 15% when I get the error. Also, the fans are completely quiet.
Is there a way to push my macbook into full processing power? Or is your advice to buy the even more expensive one? I understand that the cores are 'only' 2.0 Ghz each, but is this not enough for logic? Should I return this one if this is what I plan to do with it?
Again, I am aware of the tricks to reduce the CPU load (split track and plugins, Low latency mode, select an empty track etc) and I know logic can only assign one thread to one core, but I don't want this to be neccesary on a brand new two thousand dollar machine. On top of this it seems it's not pushing the CPU when it's needed.
So I think my question is, should i buy a different system, or is this just normal for a new macbook pro? Because now I'm kinda stuck with a "bad bargain" feeling.
Some advice would be greatly appreciated!

Sounds like you need to increase your buffer. Go to prefs - Audio and increase the I/O Buffer size to the next highest setting, then keep going up if you still experrience issues.
Remember you can use Low Latency Mode if you have a delay when recording. Shocks me that they have relegated this feature to such a obscure place, but a quick google search or peek in the manual will help you find it and use it.
Btw, this is my backup .me account, so nvm the low level.

Hey i bought a brand new MBP like 6 months ago and now it won't charge

i bought a brand new MBP like 6 months ago and now it won't charge. I tried using a friends MBP charger of the same year as my computer but it still says not charging at the top right corner of the computer screen where the charging symbol is. This problem just happened out of nowhere because it was working the day before then the next day it just stopped working saying it is not charging. I tired doing all of the suggested techniques to fix it but not luck.
This is the battery report is when my MBP is either connected to my charger or my friends charger which works perfectly on her computer.

Aperture 3 not working on brand new MBP???

Just tried to open Aperture 3 on my brand new MBP and I get this error message:
Dyld Error Message:
Library not loaded: /Library/Frameworks/PluginManager.framework/Versions/B/PluginManager
Referenced from: /Applications/Aperture.app/Contents/MacOS/Aperture
Reason: no suitable image found. Did find:
/Library/Frameworks/PluginManager.framework/Versions/B/PluginManager: no matching architecture in universal wrapper
I downloaded A3 from the Mac Store, I've deleted it and re-installed and still get the same message. My MBP is running 10.6.8.
Any ideas, hope you can help.
Thanks!

Hi, Thanks! The solution on the Macrumors forum worked! A plugin manager issue!
I've copied the solution below for anyone else who may run into the issue.
Turns out it's a simple fix.
For those with the same problem:
1. Navigate to: /Library/Frameworks/PluginManager.framework/Versions/B/PluginManager
2. Delete the PluginManager
3. Get a new copy of the PluginManager. (You can copy one from a friends macbook) or use the one hosted here: http://qvenon.com/files/PluginManager.zip
Thanks again!

Kernel Panic and a strange sound on a two days brand new MBP 17" i7

I just got a brand new MBP 17" i7 two days ago. Already had two issues:
1. On the first day while the computer was doing an automatic software update I heard a loud horn type sound coming from within the machine. After that the screen turned grey with the Apple logo and a status bar underneath. After that the machine returned to the "normal" screen and keep working.
2. Yesterday while trying to set up a mighty mouse the computer gave me the kernel panic screen. I turned the computer off and then on again and everything seems fine.
I contact Apple and they gave me two options for my peace of mind:
1. Take the computer to an Apple Genius bar
2. Send the machine back to the store
I own an iMac and a Macbook and this things had never happened before. I don't think it's normal for a brand new computer to do things like that.
This incidents took place within the first two day of receiving the computer, but maybe down the road or as I start installing programs like Final Cut Studio 3 or Office for Mac, things could complicate...
What do you recommend?

Hi there.
The noise you heard and the status bar is usually the result of a firmware update being installed. Nothing to be concerned with and in fact will probably happen again if they just swap out the machine.
The kernel panic may have just been a fluke but you could try running the Apple Hardware Diagnostics that actually shipped with the machine to rule out hardware. If the tests come back ok then you could try to just re-install the OS.
Good luck.

Magic mouse lag on brand new MBP

Hello,
I received my MBP 15" (Mid 2012) several days ago. But my Magic Mouse doesn't work very well with it. The cursor lags every several minutes to one hour or two, and lasts for several seconds to several minutes every time. I don't mean that the movement is slow - when it happens, the cursor doesn't follow the movement of the mouse very well, it seems 'jittery'. The cursor may "jump" to the destination 0.3~1 second after I moving the mouse. I tried everything I can do but the problem is still not solved. Here are what I've tried:
* Setting my router to 5ghz band
* Turn the mouse off and on.
* Turn the mouse off, replace the batteries to new ones, and turn on.
* Restart the computer.
* Remove the mouse from the list of Bluetooth devices, and pair again.
* Reset PRAM and SMC.
* Disable WIFI.
* Unplug everything in my room that has a wireless receiver, including Xbox, Apple TV, etc, and remove the batteries of their controllers.
None of the above works! However, I also have a Magic Trackpad which also uses Bluetooth but it works fine. I tested the Magic Mouse on my old MacBook Pro and it works without any problem. The distance between the mouse and the laptop is less than 2ft.
Mouse still works fine on my old 2010 MBP.
Brand new MBP 15", 256GB SSD, 8GB RAM.

I had the same problem with my new Retina Macbook Pro and my Magic Mouse that worked fine on my previous 2010 Macbook Pro. At work I don't have a wifi network so I share my ethernet connection via wifi so I can get internet on my iPhone and iPad during the day. After reading this thread I tried turning off the internet sharing and it has cleared up all lag issues with the mouse.
Just thought I'd share my fix. Hopefully Apple can clear up whatever issues are causing this so I can get wifi back to my devices at work.

How much does OSX take up on a brand new MBP HD?

Does anyone know on a Brand new MBP 128 SSD drive....how much is allocated to the OSX?
Thanks in advance

You do need to install Windows twice - once under Boot Camp and once under Parallels - but you can legally use the same CD with the same licence for both installations. There is no need to buy two copies.
There is a program called Monolingual that will assist in removing the additional language support. Be care, as it has removed the components needed to run Rosetta for some users who were not as careful as they should have been.
Parallels has to run from within OS X, but some people have had success running Windows off of an external drive. I have not tried it, but the instructions can be found HERE.

FaceTime problems on 3 brand new MBP 13 Retina, Apple has given in

Hi All,
After recieving 3 brand new machines (MBP13 Retina) in Dec 2013 and Jan 2014, Apple does not believe they can deliver a proper working brand new machine. They also won't look into the problem and hope i can accept this faulty machine.
Is that what Apple is turned into? A company that doesn't believe they can fix their own machines? Or do they not care anymore about their customers and their product?
The person I'm facetiming with cannot hear me when we talk at the same time. My (3 brand new, but all 3 faulty) machines will mute me, so the other party cannot hear me. It is back to the walky talky ages again, 'over'.
Since I'm a great believer of Apple, I cannot believe they won't fix this problem and just keep on selling and delivering brand new MBP 13 Retina machines that don't work.
Does nobody at the Apple company care anymore, is there no company pride?

after a week of working on this problem the last straw was spending 3 hours being helped with this problem by 1mb.com after which time they asked me either to take out a years support at £129 or pay for help from a better qualified technician! As I only received my IPad last week I am going to send it back tomorrow. why doesn't Apple respond when it is obvious from all the discussions that there is a problem? Considering the price of the iPad I feel thoroughly disillusioned and cheated as well as frustrated by spending so many hours to no avail. this was not the only problem I've encountered but it is the one I've wasted most time trying to resolve./

Help!!! Brand new MBP with Santa Rosa Kernel Panics when started with external HD firewire 800 after 20 sec...
I don't know what it could be???
Do you???
Thanx
Jay

I'm actually having a similar issue and I don't think its related to networking at all.
I'm currently working in a corporate environment where we deploy pre-built OS X images to machines. I recently upgraded my images to 10.4.10 before we got our first Santa Rosa machine. This image was built on a MacPro and worked on all Intel Macs down to a MacMini CoreSolo. When I deployed my prebuilt image to the SR MBP, it caused a kernel panic immediately.
Further investigation revealed previous builds of OS X, including 10.4.10 upgraded from any other model Intel Mac will kernel panic the SR MBP. Going backwards the SR Build of OSX will not work on any previous model Mac, as any other build typically does, but causes severe graphical distortion, as if it does not have the display drivers for the other Macs.
To make a long story short, I think your issue comes from the fact that your external hard drive has an older build of OS X 10.4 than the SR MBP will run (even though you may have upgraded it to 10.4.10). Anyone who can corroborate my story with some more testing, please chime in.
I haven't found a solution for this issue yet other than keeping a seperate Santa Rosa Core 2 Duo image for my deployments.

HT4796 System information shows files on my brand new MBP that I can't see anywhere in Finder?

I'm brand new to Mac's. Very good with PC's but don't know my way around these machines very well. Bought a brand new pro today and started to do migration assistant at startup to transfer my itunes music and films from my windows pc to my mac over my network. I left it for 15 minutes and the bar didn't even move (transferring like 60gb) so I thought screw this and cancelled it on my pc (can't cancel on mac) and that canceled it on my mac too. I started over to just do my music as that's all that I really needed (10GB). Again it took too long so I canceled and thought I'd do it later and continued to set up my new mac. I then went into about this mac and under storage it says I have a load of files (below) but I can't find anything in Finder so where are they and are they some of my files that transferred over before I cancelled or are they system files (seems excessive to me to have over a gig of audio)
Also when I go into finder and show all my files all I can see is this
so where are all them files?
Not tech savvy with Mac at all btw but I will be soon as I learn fast and am generally very good with computers

No, it is normal. As I have said, there is a large quantity of system files that come with your mac. 1.22gb of music covers default ringtones, alert sounds, etc. 5gb of apps covers the default applications included with your mac. The movies and photos are probably icons and other media included in applications. You really have nothing to worry about.
If this was a decade ago you would and should worry, however things seem to be progresively getting larger.

Brand new MBP Retina constant kernal panics

I have a new MBP Retina with Mavericks 10.9.4 installed. I have received constant kernal panics since a few days into it. It seemed as though they were being cause by the io/logic boards, but those have both been replaced now. OS has been reinstalled multiple times to no avail. BSD and kernals blamed are all over the place (Dock, WindowsServer, mds; filesystems, AppleSMBusController, IOAcceleratorFamily)
The latest kernal panic is as follows:

I've got many more where that came from. I just don't want to post a wall of text.

An update on my situation.
I had my macbook pro replaced with a brand new one by Apple, which was brilliant customer service.
Before giving back the old macbook, I decided to copy all my essential documents over to a usb stick. I also formatted my time machine external drive so it was blank.
Rather than restore this new macbook using my time machine backup, I set it up as a new machine and copied just my documents from my usb stick. I then proceeded to carry out fresh installs of software I regularly use but nothing non-essential (namely Spotify, Firefox, Chrome, xCode, Adobe CS5, Squidman, MAMP and Office 2011).
For three days everything worked beautifully - until last night when I had my first kernel panic on this machine. Nothing was running apart from firefox when this panic occured. The report is below and states the process which was running was 'plugin-container' which is part of firefox.
Below is the log output:

I'm running the latest OS X Mavericks - all updated to date.
I've tested the thunderbolt display with a friends MacBook Air and I see no problems there.
Any clues what is going on? Or it this latest Kernel Panic just a coincidence compared to my previous macbook?
Thanks in advance!

Disk is too slow or System Overload Error on new Core i7 iMac

Well I just unboxed the new supercomputer, 27 inch iMac with Core i7 and 8gigs of ram. Spent several hours installing Logic Studio 9 and for an opening act I loaded up the demo song by Lily Allen. Too my utter dismay within seconds of playing the demo in Logic Pro I was greeted with the error "Disk is too slow or System Overload.(-10010)".
Can anyone make sense of this? Shouldn't this computer be able to handle this multitrack Logic song with relative ease? What is the problem here, I, of course, am very confused and very worried that something is very wrong.
Thanks

I am running on less of a machine than you are, so I have experienced similar problems, even when playing back 4 audio tracks while recording 2 all at once (usually with significant plug-ins on the 4 playback tracks).
The easiest solution I've found, without modifying how your plug-ins run, buying hardware, etc., is to "Freeze" the tracks that aren't being worked on at present. It "renders" all of what the plug-ins are doing so that the CPU and hard drive are not taxes nearly as much while playing back. It just takes a few seconds to render them once, and then your playback/recording drops the amount of resources it requires tremendously.
The easiest way to activate a freeze on a track is to right-click on the track name in the Arrange pane, select "Freeze" so the button that looks like a snowflake appears next to each track. You can click and drag down the contiguous tracks that can be frozen to turn the option on (or individually click to turn them on). You will then need to play the project to "render" the tracks and freeze them. Next time you play the project, it will run with many less resources and should save you from seeing that message.
As an aside, you may also want to make sure that you are not running any other applications. I found that another app in the background (Connect360) was running on my Mac and sharing my iTunes to my XBox 360, which was also making a good use of the hard drive at the same time. Any other applications running while Logic is running should be closed to ensure the best performance possible in your audio editing environment.
Hope this helps!

Brand New MBP Keyboard DOA/Any Fixes?/Return To Amazon or Call Apple?

I received a 2.4 GHz MBP yesterday. The internal keyboard crapped-out shortly after I began using it, within fifteen minutes or so... It took me a minute or two to realize that I couldn't type anything. Like others have reported external input devices work. The trackpad/button also function properly.
The computer arrived with the Pro Software Update 1.1 already installed, so that relatively easy fix is out.
I am in the process of upgrading the MBP to 10.5.5, etc. and see if that helps, but I doubt that it will. I have been unable to find any reliable fixes online. Anybody?
So do I contact Amazon or call Apple? I am at the Amazon page where you click "refund" or "return." I could really use a reliable Apple portable computer but this has really put me off... I opted for a previous-generation model for the matte screen and a keyboard that I prefer. I am well -aware of the Nvidia GPU woes but I thought that I could try to mitigate the heat issue and hope for the best. Now I'm not so sure.
All but one of my Macs going back to 1995 have had at least one hardware issue and the portables have had at least two major hardware issues. But this is the first brand-new Mac that has arrived in this condition.

Having dug a little deeper into the Amazon returns policy I came across this:
"All computers sold by Amazon.com are supported by the computer's manufacturers. In the unlikely event a computer appears to be defective, customers are directed to contact the customer support networks of the individual computer manufacturer to have it serviced under warranty."
I had read somewhere that Amazon accepts computer returns if they arrive "DOA" but then I got to thinking that DOA may not apply to this situation...
So I guess my next stop is Apple if it acts up again...

Help, Brand New MBP Freezes

Hey, I have now had my brand new 15.4" MBP 2.16 ghz for about 2 days. And I must say I enjoy it quite a bit when it works. I have had a major problem with it however. Anytime I try to do the software update it freezes and the screen goes dark and I get the sign that says I need to restart my MBP, hold down the power button or push the restart button. Unfortunately this problem also happens randomly when i'll be browsing safari, and one other time when i was updating my ipod. Does anyone have any idea why this happens, or what to do about it? Oh in case it matters, it has happened both when it's plugged in and not plugged in. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

That's ok. It's like a blue screen of death in Windows. Something failed so terribly, it took the OS down with it.
You can see the logs by going to Applications\Utilities\Console. Open up that console, click on logs, and find the panic log. You can select a portion and copy/paste it here.
Best call Apple, though, so they can begin the process of troubleshooting and when that doesn't work, sending you a return label so you can get a swapped computer.
Good luck.

Brand new MBP 13 inch, "NO AirPort card installed" message

Hello!
I just bought a new MBP 13 inch and cannot connect to my home wireless network. On the top bar and when I put the mouse cursor on the AirPort icon it says "No AirPort card installed". Shouldn't the card be pre-installed by Apple though? Currently I'm using an ethernet cable to connect to the internet which works fine.
Thanks very much in advance!

Open Utilities/System Profiler and in the left column click on Airport (in the Network section), does it show any details for the hardware or is it blank ?
Try doing a Parameter RAM reset - hold down command/option/p/r keys at start up and wait for three chimes before releasing the keys.
If still no joy then you need to take it back to Apple for them to check it out.
