I've gone through the mail profile deletion and reinstall, deleting the cache, uninstalling and reinstalling OS etc. Somedays it's totally useless and sometimes I can go a week without crashing. Sometimes immediately after opening, and sometimes everything is fine until I add an attachment to an email or something.
I just want my Mac to use the integrated Intel GPU and forget the discrete ADM Radeon card altogether. It wouldn't boot up after that either, so I moved this ones also:Īfter that it did boot up, but the screen shows thin horizontal blue stripes all over as well as some other glitches and slowness all over.
I know Apples is repairing eligible machines, but I live in a country where perhaps that wouldn't be possible.ĭecided to prevent the laptop from using the AMD GPU and use the integrated intel chip instead, I moved this drivers out of the /System/Library/Extensions/folder: I've known that this model of MBP had problems with defective AMD Radeon discrete GPU. But one day it had a kernel panic when waking up from sleep.īooting in verbose mode showed no indications of what the problem could be, but I suspected it was a video card problems. And things seemed to go smoothly for a couple of days. I installed gfxCardStatus and to prevent it to switching to the discrete GPU at any time.
For a couple of week, I've been having kernel panics in my MacBook Pro (Early 2011, Yosemite), mostly doing zoom operations using QuickView and Preview.Ī couple of times, it had problems rebooting, until finally it only rebooted to a grey screen.
