Why does my brand new MBP crashes all the time?

I have baught this mac 4 days ago and since day 1 it crashes. Everything freezes and i have to do hard reset. I cant even use the Force Quit Application. Its getting worse day by day and i am really frustrated about this. Anyone got a clue whats goin on?

return it for another new one.  You shouldnt have to deal with this on a brand new mac.

  • Why does Firefox 23 keeps freezing briefly all the time?

    Firefox suddenly started freezing briefly for something like 3 seconds all the time when it updated to 23. It does it something like every 10 seconds. How do I stop the really annoying brief freezing?

    I had already tried disabling HWA before updating to 24 beta but it didn't make any difference. Still kept freezing. At least the problem appears to be fixed in 24 beta. I haven't yet had any more regular freezing problems after updating.

  • Why is my MackBook Pro suddenly crashing all the time?

    Hello,
    After upgrading to OS X 10.9.2 yesterday, my MacBook Pro (15-inch, early 2011 model) has crashed many (>10) times.
    Specs:
    Processor  2,2 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory  8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB
    Software  OS X 10.9.2 (13C64)
    There is also an AMD Radeon HD 6750M graphics card.
    Disk: Samung 512GB SATA 6Gb SSD 830 Series
    When it happens it can be in a way such that everything freezes, even the mouse cursor, or it can be by switching to a grey or blue screen.
    It has happened several times in connection with inserting the cable for my external monitor at work or my TV at home.
    I tried running Disk Utility, both Repair Disk (which repaired 2 problems on my disk) and Repair Disk Permissions, which found a number of problems.
    That seemed to help for a long while. But then a new crash occured.
    Running Repair Disk Permissions again finds some of the same problems again, which are related to Printers and/or GPU!
    Example report from Repair Disk Permissions:
    "Repairing permissions for “Macintosh HD”
    Group differs on “Library/Printers/InstalledPrinters.plist”; should be 80; group is 0.
    Permissions differ on “Library/Printers/InstalledPrinters.plist”; should be -rw-rw-rw- ; they are -rw-r--r-- .
    Repaired “Library/Printers/InstalledPrinters.plist”
    Group differs on “private/var/db/GPURestartReporter”; should be 0; group is 80.
    Permissions differ on “private/var/db/GPURestartReporter”; should be drwxr-xr-x ; they are drwxrwx--- .
    Repaired “private/var/db/GPURestartReporter”
    Permissions repair complete"
    About 4 weeks ago it crashed completely, and showed some graphics failures, and I was not able to boot up.
    It was sent to repair, and they ended up installing a whole new logic board!
    Before that I had no problems with crashing or freezing.
    Thanks,
    Ulrik

    That is completely normal for Macs and has been for many years. Apple considers those to be messages and not errors.

    Do you have the crashes if you plug in the external monitor before booting your Macbook Pro or only if you attach them when the computer is already running? In either case it sounds like an electro-mechanical problem most likely a bad port connection in the machine, perhaps the result of swithching out the logic board. I hate to say this, but I think it is time to send your Macbook Pro back for further repairs.

  • TS3048 why does my Magic Mouse not scroll all the time.

    It is intermittent when I open Mail and Calendar.
    It will be working and after 5 minutes, just stops for no real reason.  No pattern either.
    I tried doing something called a system controller reset ( or similar) and that worked for about 2 days.
    does anyone have some advice or discovered the issue.  My mouse is one year old and the batteries are at 100%. 
    thanks!

    I've got the same issue - seems to have started happening since Mavericks upgrade. Pretty frustrating, so would be keen to get some guidance on this

  • Why does my reminders app lock up all the time?

    I have an iPhone 4 with all the software updates. I have set some reminders and when I get reminded I go in to check them off and it will not let me. I have tried to delete the reminders and the app. I have closed out of the app, restarted my phone and turned completely off. Still I have a reminder from October that reminds me every Sunday and Thursday that I can not get to stop and can not delete. If any one has an idea to get rid of my reminders please help.

  • Why does my brand new printer always print the same 1. thing that i printed before

    when i try to print something else it always prints the same thing i dont know why i deleted that old files but it still prints the old thing

    I would check to make sure the print queue is empty. I would also check the temp files on the computer (and anywhere else that a copy of it could exist depending on what operating system you are using) for that print item. 
    Also, make sure there is not a virus on the system. Those can do some weird things when certain conditions happen. Not likely just not something to overlook.

  • Why does 'slide to answer' not work all the time on iPhone 4

    Hi all,
    I've have a iPhone 4 and I've always had this problem. I always keep my phone up to date. The issue is the 'slide to answer' button is incredibly unreliable causing me at times to miss calls because it doesn't work. Just now my phone was ringing and the 'slide to answer' was totally unresponsive until I pressed the home button, then I had to try sliding it a few times before it successfully answered.
    This last weekend my dad rang me and I couldn't answer the call; the 'slide to answer' button was happy to move precisely half way along before automatically springing back again even though I hadn't taken my finger off it.
    What's wrong with it?  Its not that long ago since I last restored my phone afresh and yet it's still a problem.
    Has anyone got any idea how to fix it?
    Thanks

    There are 3 things you can try.
    Hard reset -Hold home and power button until apple logo is displayed -Release let device reboot -test it out.
    If issue persists -go to Settings>gerneral>reset>reset all settings -test.
    Issue persisting still??
    Last but not least restore and setup as new, this will erase EVERYTHING make sure contacts/calendars are in the iCloud or synced in windows Contacts/Addressbook/outlook, or Addressbook on a mac, and Calendars in Outlook, or iCal
    make sure to transfer your purchases, in iTunes windows or mac - File at top left - Transfer purchases.
    Transfer photos via iPhoto, windows scanner camera wizard, or Windows Photo Gallery
    then follow  http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414

  • Why does my brand new iphone die???

    Why does my brand new iphone die???

    sorry!!!
    Make sure that the USB cable is plugged into the iPhone 4S and iTunes is running. (The only reason we have iTunes running is that, once the device boots into DFU, iTunes will prompt you with a dialogue box.)
    Now, turn the device off by holding the power button till Slide to Power Off appears on screen. (If you plugged in the cable after turning the device off, it will turn on again.)
    With your device off. press and hold the Power button for 3 seconds.
    Without releasing the Power button, press the Home button and keep both the buttons pressed for 10 more seconds.
    Release the Power button, but keep the Home button pressed for another 10 seconds.
    The device should kick into DFU mode in around the 7th or 8th second, and iTunes will display a prompt that say's "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode you must restore....
    The black and totally blank screen is totally normal; there is no need to be alarmed. This was all that it took for you to put your iPhone 4S in DFU mode.
    Click on "OK" and follow the steps to restore iPhone.

    Describe it a little. Is it like very loud? Or hardly notable? It could be your headphones giving you that issue. Have you tried a different set of headphones?

    Why does my brand new MacBook pro have 13 cycles on the battery right out of the box? Shouldn't it have 0 because it's brand new.

    Yes it should have 0.  I would return it, that means that the battery has already went through 13 full cycles.  Perhaps they accidentally resold a returned one as new.
