Hi,

I am running OS X 10.10.1 on a mid-2010 MacBook Pro (6,2). The last couple of months (not sure which Yosemite version it started in), I have experienced what seems like random crashes. When they occur, the computer restarts twice and any unsaved data is lost.

I fail to identify any specific trigger – the last time it happened in the middle of just reading a text-filled PDF in Safari, with Spotify in the background.

The crash report is attached, can any wise interpreter guide me to the problem?

Observations and advice

For presentation of PDF, is an Adobe product plugged in to Safari? Use the Help menu to list plug-ins.

At a glance, I'd say that the kernel panic is graphics-related.

Getting more from kernel panics with keepsyms (address to symbol translation) – if you follow that hint, then the next .panic file will be more informative.

Also …

com.paceap.kext.pacesupport.snowleopard

Version 5.9.1, is that current?

com.digidesign.mbox2.driver

Version 10.3.5f211 may be outdated. Mbox 2 Drivers draws attention to 10.3.9.

For convenience, here's an inline representation of the report that was attached to your opening post:

Thankyou for the reply.

  • The only Adobe-related extension I found in Safari, was Flash;
  • I have followed your advice on 'keepsyms', and "look forward" to the next crash;
  • It is correct that the Mbox 2 driver is slightly old. However, the most recent, 10.3.9, is not Yosemite compatible;
  • I think the Pace iLok-driver is the most recent (OS X 10.5 and up), but I have reinstalled it.

Earlier, the Mbox 2 (sound card) and associated software (Avid Pro Tools) were responsible for quite a few crashes. But then "coreaudiod" was the process mentioned in the crash report.

If it is related at all: the crashes do not seem to appear under heavy graphics use, rather the opposite.

Nvram

The backtrace does not include the expected information.

I guess that at some point you performed a reset of NVRAM, which would have lost the effect of

sudo nvram boot-args="-v keepsyms=y"

Please again set those boot arguments and then tell whether the panic is reproducible with released build 14C109 of the operating system.

That's OK. When the computer rebooted after crashing, at least there was a lot more information displayed during startup (instead of just the gray apple).

… more information displayed during startup (instead of just the gray apple).

It's odd that you have the verbose startup but not the expected level of detail in the panic report.

In Terminal, please run the following command then paste the output to this topic:

nvram -p | grep boot-args

Thanks. I guess that you didn't reboot/restart the operating system after originally setting the boot arguments.

You should find that the next kernel panic is followed by a .panic report with the expected information.

Hmm., the computer has now crashed twice without displaying the usual "crash report" window that previously appeared upon login.

I do neither find anything in Console → /Library/logs → CrashReport.

Where can they be found?

It happens to me occasionally (like once per two weeks) and no crash report was ever generated. Have you sent the crash report to Apple? Its a bug that Yosemite had since early DP releases and it proves to be quite elusive given that they did not catch it yet.

The .panic file is normally written when the computer starts after the panic. Not at the time of the panic.

Written in the following folder –

/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/

– and the name of the .panic file will begin with the word Kernel

It's rare, but not unknown, for no .panic file to be written.

Thanks for the location. There are no .panic files there at the moment. However, there are quite a few .diag files, that seemingly correspond to times when I know the computer crashed. Here is one from Feb 5th, with titled "WindowServer", which as far as I remember has been the most frequent associated process. Does its content have any contribution to this?

WindowServer_….wakeups_resource.diag

/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/WindowServer_….wakeups_resource.diag

– those are normal diagnostic files, not related to kernel panics.

(I have a few of those files on a Mac that was temporarily running OS X 10.10.2. I expect to find more when I restart the Mac with 10.9.5.)

I do not know whether it is related to the boot-args command or not, but I experience almost daily crashes, but no dialog box with the crash report (and ability to send the report to Apple) appear after startup anymore.

However, the nature of the crashes also seem to have change, and thus the above is not related to the boot-args command. Previously, the computer only restarted. Now, the screen goes black, but the keys are still backlit. But no matter what I do (for instance closing the lid for some time to make the computer go to sleep) seems to wake the screen again. I force shut down the computer by holding the power button.

The last time I started the computer after such a "crash", I observed the line "previous shutdown cause: -3" during startup.

Finally, I crash with a report:

Finally, I crash with a report …

The 2015-03-13 report is of a double panic. http://superuser.com/a/650216/84988 for a not-too-technical explanation of double panics.

… the screen goes black, but the keys are still backlit. But no matter what I do (for instance closing the lid for some time to make the computer go to sleep) seems to wake the screen again. I force shut down the computer by holding the power button. …

That set of symptoms is consistent with a double panic. In my experience it's rare (possibly unknown) for the Mac to automatically restart following a double panic.

You might find that double panics will be less likely if you clear, from NVRAM, the 'keepsyms=y' boot argument. That's just a hunch. (Hardware here –MacBookPro5,2 – is a little older than your 6,2.)

----

With reference to the earlier panic report, I sought an online copy of 'GPUPanic.cpp'. Not found, so let's assume that it's closed source.

In Apple Support Communities: GPUPanic.cpp:127 – that does seem relevant, but I should not rush to assume that you have a hardware problem.

Resolved

I think I have found others with the same problem now.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5759538?start=105&tstart=0
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203554

Seems like a known problem of switching between Intel and Nvidia graphics. Too bad the support program is ended, but maybe I'll contact an Apple retailer anyways.
*** RESOLVED ***

I visited the local Apple retailer. They confirmed that they knew about the problem, and that they fixed it free of charge (as long as the computer is less than five years old, according to Norwegian laws). I will have them repair it.

For the time before the repair, I have installed gfxCardStatus as Mr. RetroFire suggested.

Thankyou all for help and replies, grahamperrin in particular.

Is there any way to figure out if this is what may be causing my constant crashes and reboots? I upgraded to yosemite about two months ago and it really accelerated the crashes though. I have had the machine to apple 2012, rMBP, and their diagnostics didn't highlight anything notable. So no repair. I have crash reports from the past dozen crashes though.
