Video display freezes on MBP 2011?

I have a late 2011 MBP 15 inch. I had the motherboard replaced a little more than a year ago due to display/video freezing and paid for it. It is not happening again. Will this be covered (cost-wise) as this is a known and documented issue with this model?

If repairs are made by Apple, outside the warranty period, they are guaranteed for 90 days. Should there be a recall for a certain issue, then that would be repaired under the recall terms. I know of any recalls on 2011 MBPs.
Ciao.

Equium M70-339: Playing video display freezes for second every 10sec

When I play a video/dvd etc the display sticks/freezes for a split second every 10 seconds or so. This happens when I play something online or from one of my own DVDs/CDs. It does it on all software (Windows Media, Real Player etc).
It seems to be a driver problem(?) but I can't be sure.
It is certainly very annoying! .. and seems to be getting more noticeable. Would appreciate any help as I can't find anything else on the web which explains why this happens.
thanks
Jim

The newly downloaded driver worked for a short time (I'm certain I have the correct one as it actually had a link on my PC to download the latest version) but is now back to the very annoying 'stick' every 10 seconds or so. I'm not sure what else I can do to fix this - it's very frustrating as it ruins enjoyment of videos, dvds and also watching internet tv, they all do the same. Any ideas?

No video displaying on my MBP

I bought my Macbook Pro last July. It's worked well since then. I had a minor run-in with Applecare because my battery was overheating and causing cracks in my top case. That same issue is happening again with my top case, and I'm not sure if it's related to this problem or not. I pray it's not because my warranty is almost up and I really do not want to go through those headaches..
Anyways, it started yesterday. After forcing shut-downs multiple times by pressing the power button till it shut off, the screen stopped displaying video. It started up again somehow and worked fine until this morning when I had closed the display to do things around the house. I came back and the video did not display. I get start-up chimes and that sort of thing but besides that, absolutely nothing.
Recent programs I installed were Blizzard's Wrath of the Lich King Alpha. An expansion pack in testing for World of Warcraft. The Alpha was crashing due to some Assertion error. Could that have corrupted software on my laptop and caused my display problem?
At the very least, could someone tell me what Apple Stores usually do in this situation? I am afraid to come in and have them tell me I won't be seeing my laptop for a month.

Try starting in Safe mode. If the problem is still there under a safe start, then it could be a hardware problem and you will have to get it fixed under AppleCare.

MBP 2011 Discrete Video Card Freezes iTunes

I just got an MBP 2011 17" 2.2Ghz i7. I have not run into any overheating issues (as addressed in other topics). However, I have isolated a very odd conflict with iTunes and the discrete video card. I can play games such as Starcraft 2 using the discrete graphics card without incident, so the card itself seems to be working fine. Somehow iTunes brings it to it's knees, though.
If I am using dynamic video card switching or have the discrete card selected and open iTunes, the entire OS locks up for about 10 seconds at a time, with about 1 second in between each lockup where things process. My mouse is free, but other applications are also locked up. If I quit iTunes, the problem goes away within 10 seconds or so. If I switch to using the integrated graphics, I can open iTunes and use it without a problem, no lockups at all.
I have tried completely removing iTunes (including all applicable plists, etc), then re-installing. No change. I have also tried re-installing Snow Leopard entirely and opening iTunes immediately after install. No change, still locks up. The Console app does not report anything relating to the issue that I can see.
I have the problem isolated and repeatable. There is some conflict between iTunes and the AMD Radeon HD 6750 discrete video card. Is this happening to anyone else? Does anyone have any ideas to try? Or is this just something that will be fixed by a new video card driver released by Apple in the near term?

Hi,
I do have the problems to, didn't know it was a problem of iTunes. I thought it might be my ram(changed it myself to 8GB ram to save 160$!), or my harddrive(changed it to 7200rpm that i already had).
Greetings,

MBP 2011 17" Early, GPU display glitch

From some days, my MBP 2011 17 inch early start to show Pink lines on display, and total Freeze, this was a expensive machine around 3000 USD, i found a lot of documentation about that... but i can't pay 650 USD for fix that...
What i do, i have remove Battery conector for some minutes... also i remove Ram, reinstall ram and connect battery... now i can work for some hours before crash again... is the glitches on display restart step one... well... I think apple need take this Subject with more serious... and create a replacement logic board...

MBP 2011 freezes and Kernal panic using Netflix?

Anyone have an issue with MBP 2011 13" i5 16G RAM freezing while using Netflix? Genius Bar diagnosed it as a bad motherboard. This issue started over a year ago the screen goes black and get three beeps chime sometimes i have to reset the RAM in order to clear it.

Just one more thing - the description of what i did while first Kernel appeared:
Happened 2 days ago. Wasn't turning it off for like a day, only sleep mode by closing it. Worked fine all day, wasn't doing anything, except for checking mail 2-3 times and having windows 7 virtual machine opened but doing nothing, everything was going fine. Then closed it without turning off.
Opened 3-4 hours later, everything was working fine for 30 minutes of checking mail, then Kernel appeared. After that pretty much everything i did is described in part 1-5.
Note: all the time MBP was connected to internet via wifi, so updates to both MBP and virtual machine of all programs were possible.
I only shared downloads and desktop folders, so windows couldn't have access to system folder of Mac Os.
Hope this might help...Thanks again.

Can I place a 13" retina display panel into my 2011 MBP?

I was wondering (moreso wishing and hoping) if it's possible to have my 2011 MBP display panel replaced with the recent 13" retina display panel. My 2011 MBP is just out of warranty and its display panel has developed a green line issue that seems too common among MBP displays.
Thanks!

The best option would be to take this to Apple and pay for it to be fixed. The display will be expensive to fix, so if you feel you can, purchasing a replacement from eBay or somewhere online would be possible. You can not fit a Retina display on as the hings and connectors are different, and even if they were not, the firmware and drivers your Mac will have (and continue to have as the model number tells the system you should have a standard display) can not drive the higher resolution efficiently. This would lead to performance and battery issues.
Consider buying a desktop stand and display for your Mac as well and use the built in display only when necessary. Small problems with LCDs usually develop into worse situations quickly.
Good luck!

Video issues on the display of a MBP 17

Hello,
The display on my MBP 17 is not operating properly. Before I contact Apple I thought I would seek some advice.
The display bottom half is all video garbled, but upper half is working properly. When I close the lid placing the computer in 'sleep' mode and reopen, the display works perfectly for awhile. Then returns to acting up but there is no rhyme or reason for length when it returns to acting up.
Any ideas?
Thank you,
Reed

See if this applies to you.

MBP 2011/MC724 performance decreasing after firmware updating

On the third day after buying a suddenly degraded performance. No additional software installed (except for the adobe flash player).
Perhaps the problem is caused by a firmware update. I've Installed it from the standard upgrades. System Restore from DVD (with full HD cleaning), not solve problem.
Current performance can not even watch videos on youtube.
Who else is having the same problem with apple mbp 2011?
What do I do with it? How to fix the problem?
thank you in advance for your help.
Sasha.

youtube, safari, showing spaces and so on. Heavy freezes. Even during the first boot (after recovery from the DVD) when the music plays, there are freezes and crackling sound.

Video playback freezes - Lion

Hi there,
on my down time, I have been using my new 2011 MacBook Pro (with Lion) to play videos to the TV, through the display port. I have been using VLC for Mac.
I have had no problems until today.
The Video starts playing and then the screen goes off center and eventually freezes, the mouse works, but nothing else.
I played the video directly on the laptop, and the same thing happened.
To see if it was VLC, I downloaded another video player (MPlayerX) from the app store and the same thing happened. Did not try QuickTime as it did not have a codec for the AVI I was playing.
It is strange that it worked fine yesterday and not today. Do not remember doing any updates in the last few days.
I know people have mentioned this happening with Lion. Most of the posts I have read had to do with Desktops.
After it freezes there isn't much to do but reboot.
In one of the restarts it did create a report that was sent to Apple.
Can anyone suggest what I should do next?
Thanks a lot.
Walter

I have tried a two different file types (MKV, and AVI) using both players, and after a certain amount of time the screen would shift a bit to the right. I would see a black column, where the mouse could not go.
The video would freeze there, the audio would continue for a while, but the rest of the computer would be unresponsive, in some cases. One of two times, the mouse would work and I could click on some menu item.

Video playback freezes Xorg nvidia-340xx (340.46-4)

Hi all,
I recently updated by MacBook Pro (4,1) to the new legacy nvidia drivers because 343 doesn't support the integrated 8600M. I'm currently running 3.17.1-1, but I also had the problem on 3.16.4-1.
When I'm watching video in VLC X will freeze. The mouse pointer still works, but I can't click on anything, and everything besides the cursor stops updating. The only solution is to switch to tty and restart the login manager (slim, in my case). If you switch to tty and then back to X, the screen is black except for the cursor.
I'm running Enlightenment without compiz, using opengl as the render engine.
dmesg doesn't have anything from the kernel or the module about errors, oops, crashes, whatever. /var/log/Xorg.0.log also has nothing to indicate that something is happening.
I've tried to follow the instructions on NVidia's website to generate verbose VDPAU logs, but it would appear that doesn't work with VLC. I installed mplayer to try and get it to crash, but when I specify vdpau as the video output module there is no video displayed, so I'm guessing NVidia's instructions (which date from 2012) are outdated and no longer apply. Interestingly watching videos in Chrome (mp4 or webm) doesn't seem to crash X.
Anyone else having issues with video playback on the new 340xx drivers? This is really, really annoying, and I'm going to have to downgrade or switch to nouveau if the situation doesn't improve. Having X hard lock on me while watching video is not something I can live with.

The problem appears to be a memory leak in the NVidia driver. nvidia-settings shows that 99% of dedicated VRAM is used (254 of 256MB) while only running a few 2D applications. Disabling opengl rendering in enlightenment helps somewhat (83% VRAM used) but it's still a major regression from previous driver versions (<340.46) where the average used VRAM was ~40% while running productivity applications.
Has anyone else had issues with older GPUs an VRAM management on the 340.46 release?

Macbook pro 15" mid 2009 model display "freeze", please help!!!

I have a Macbook pro 15" mid 2009 model which all of a sudden startet "freezing" everytime i restart it, opens spesific programs, etc, and it is really starting to bug me! Sometimes it takes me 15 minutes to start the computer, and then freezes for another 5 minutes when i try to start i.e word.
I currently have the Mac OS X 10.6.8 (snow leopard).
Could this be fixed by a software update of some sort? If not, how can i fix it (if possible at all)?
Thanks!

You have provided some good basic information, but I'll need more in order to address our question.
1. When did you notice this problem? Relatively recently, or have you been having this problem for a while?
2. Can you correlate the problem with the installation of new software? Which software?
3. How much RAM do you have? If it's 2gb, that's probably not enough - 4gb is ideal for your unit.
4. Do you update your MBP with software update? Have you updated your browser and plugins?
5. Have you cleaned your MBP? Recently, an increasing amount of users have seen improvement by getting dust from your unit.
6. What programs cause you to freeze, or this happen with all applications? What happens when you notice the freeze? Do you see a spinning wheel? Does the display freeze? Be as specfic as possible.
I realize this is a detailed homework assignment, but answer as completely as you can. This is an answer to your issue - it's just a matter of narrowing things down.

Mini DisplayPort - VGA and MBP 2011 not working

Hi,
I can't get my 13" mbp 2011 to connect to VGA screens. I've bought a mini DisplayPort to VGA converter (an Apple one, not a no name) and if I connect a display over VGA the screen stays black. My mbp recognizes the display, I can see the display's model, resolution etc but no signal. I've tried multiple screens, none work.
I don't have other converters so I can't test if HDMI screens for example do work.
Anyone else having this problem?

I have a 2011 13" i7 and am having the same issue when connecting it to my LG TV through the HDMI adapter. However when I connect it to my HP external monitor it works but it's VERY blurry... so blurry that it hurts the eyes to look at it for more than a few mins.
My previous MBP (2010 13") works fine however with both the TV and monitor. I even reconnected it just to make sure and they both work flawlessly.
I only have 14 days total to return this new MBP and 5 of those days are used up so if I can't get this fixed by then I have no choice but to return it and go back to my old MBP.

No 1920x1080 output to external monitor from MBP 2011 OSX 10.6.8

Hi, I have a MBP 2011 running OSX 10.6.8.
I have recently purchased an Asus ML249H Monitor and the Kanex Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Cable 10 ft (3 m) MDPHD10FT.
The monitor should display at 1920x1080 natively but does not. The MBP max output resolution is 1600x900 on this screen. Is this a known issue with the MDPHD10FT cable or is it OSX? What it the work around to get 1920x1080.
Thanks

i had to go into iCal Preferences and delete my account and then put it back in. Everything is working fine, now.

Watching a Film: Display Freezes randomly.

Hello,
I have the Problem, that everytime I watch a film in fullscreen sometimes my Display freezes (Sound continues). When I move the mouse, the film continues.
This could happen after 5 or 7 minuntes and then after 10 or 3 minutes again.
I don't know where this can come from. I turned off all energy saving-options / screensavers. I Use OSX Mavericks and iTunes 11.1.3 (8) on my iMac mid 2010.
I would appreciate any help,
thanks

Is this what you are constantly seeing? The grey bars at the top and the bottom with the controls?
BTW, I see autocorrect turned "volume" into "Blume" in my response to you, but I guess you figured it out.
I just don't understand why you are even seeing the battery icon. It doesn't make sense. Do you see it in portrait and in landscape and I just now though of this .... Are you seeing this behavior in the built in Videos App or some third party app? Do you see it while streaming a video or with downloaded videos ...or both?
But like I said, you shouldn't see it anywhere at all.
