Why does my MacPro screen keep freezing

The screen on my MacPro laptop regularly freezes after only a few minutes even when only one or two applications are open

Do y have to reboot to resolve the problem?
If not what do you have to do?
After it occurs not the time of the occurrence and then after it works again open the Console app in Finder>Application>Utilities and look for log entries at that time. Post suspicious ones here.
This is the Mac Pro desktop forum. I requested your post be moved to the MacBook Pro laptop forum.

  • Why does my Ipad screen keep freezing even after rebooting

    My ipad screen keeps freezing and remains stuck. So in the last hour this has happened 3 times after hard "reboots". Can someone explain whats going on? Uwas not downloading anything ..only looking at Facebook.

    Hello, Nina1711. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Try closing all open applications in multitasking and power cycling the device.  Test the responsiveness of the iPad after processing these steps.  If the issue persists, check to make sure you have space available on the iPad in Settings/General/About.  If there is no space available you may want to remove unwanted Apps or media as this can cause the unit to become unresponsive.  If these steps have been processed with the issue persisting, you will need to restore the device.  Make sure to backup the device prior to restoring.

  • Why does my ipod screen keep freezing?

    Ive tried restoring it several times. I have held the lock and home button that doesnr work either, hoever siri does seem to work.

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.

  • Why does my new iMac keep freezing for no apparent reason?

    Why does my new iMac keep freezing? This usually happens when it is not being used and is particularly frustrating when I do need to use it and ahve to switch off and then on again and wait for it to reboot.
    I am not computer literate so keep any answers as simple and idiot friendly as possible. I treat it like a car. If I put in the key and turn the ignition on and the enginesprings into life I am content. If not.............. well!

    In order to provide any help we need to understand a little bit more about the problem you are experiencing.
    You indicated the issue occurs when the sytem is not being used. Does this mean that you stop working on the system and the system 'goes to sleep' where the screen goes black, but when you need to wake it back up by pressing keys on the keyboard or clicking the mouse the system doesn't wake back up? To test for this issue open the System Preferences and click on the Energy Saver preferences. See the 'Computer Sleep' slider to the far right 'Never' setting. You can set the 'Display sleep' setting to any number you prefer. With these settings see if the issue still occurs and let us know the results. If it resolves the issue then give Apple a call and let them know you are unable to wake the system when it goes to sleep. You shouldn't be having that issue.

  • Why does my Flash Player keep freezing during video play back?

    I have the very lastest version for Windows 7 64bit OS and it keeps freezing during video play back.  The previous versions did not do this. I have to keep the cursor moving inside the video window to prevent the player freezing.  I have deslected HARDWARE ACCELERATION and it does not help.  Why is this happening and how do I correct this situation?

    Right click ANY Flash content and choose "Setings".
    Click the folder icon (center tab) and increase the storage to at least 10Mb.

  • Why does my iPad air keep freezing, it's only 2 days old

    I have an iPad air that I was bought for Christmas. It keep freezing a few times a day, can anyone tell me if they have experienced this, what I am doing wrong or how I can fix this.

    It's not turning on at all, it turned off and won't respond to any buttons. I've tried to charge and all it does it turn on to the apple screen than turn back off, and does this the whole time while on the charger. I tried recoverying it through itunes also, and that didn't work either.

  • Why Does My Curve 9300 Keep Freezing

    Why does my BB Curve 9300 keep freezing? 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The reason it's freezing all the time is you are out of application memory.
    I recommend installing BlackBerry Desktop Software and making a full backup of the device. Then do a Security Wipe. You can do the wipe by going to Options and type security wipe in the search bar. Don't include the media card but include 3rd party apps. You can install those again later via BBWorld.
    When it's done, you can restore only the databases you really need like email, calendar, contacts, etc.
    When you're all done make sure that media is saved to the media card. I recommend getting a much bigger card so you have room for pictures and videos. You don't want that data saved on the device memory.

  • Why does my macbook pro keep freezing and rainbow disk appears?, Why does my macbook pro keep freezing and rainbow disk appears?

    My macbook pro keeps freezing and I get a rainbow disk circling. I have to hold the power down and turn off, it will not do anything else.

    Can you tell us how much RAM  (Memory) you have? It's listed by clicking on the  in your title  bar....go to About This Mac and it's in the 1st window.
    We would also like to know what size hard drive you have and how much free space is on it.
    If you click on your Hard drive icon (should be upper right hand corner of your screen), or the Finder in your Dock...when the window opens it says at the bottom how much Free Space you have on your drive.
    If you go to the , click on About This Mac, click on More Info... in that window. The next window says how big your hard drive is under Hardware....click on Serial-ATA.....look under Capacity:
    We need to know this cause if a hard drive is too full it slows things down and creates operational difficulties.

  • Why does my Iphone 4 keep freezing up, Apps will close with out notice, and will randomly restart?

    I just got a used Iphone, and it keeps freezing every time I try to do anything. Every time I click on an app it will open for a second and then close right back out. It will randomly restart, and some times it will just freeze and the only way I can get it to turn off is to hold the home and power button. I have done factory restarts. I restarted the phone as a new iphone and still does the same thing. I havent downloaded any apps from the app store and have just left it completly stock and it still has the same issues. Any ideas?

    If you already try to restore via iTunes I think it is an hardware problem.
    You should contact apple support and request service.

    Sounds like hardware failure, called boot loop. Call Apple and or go on apple.com and make Genius Bar appointment to have your iphone reviewed by a Tech. Provided you iphone shows no physical or liquid damage they will take care of you, or if you have Apple Care Plus
