Hi! I have a macbook pro mid 2012, i use it only for safari. for weeks it works fine until it freezes and won't unblock even waiting for days. same when i have to turn it on, for weeks i turn it on and off, until a day i turn it on and it gets forever stuck on the loading bar. i do the SOS on the hard disk, and mostly of the times it has no errors. all i can do is restore factory it and reinstall the OS. can you please tell me where is the problem? is it just the RAM problem? so i buy a new RAM and everything should be fine?
Stumbled on this channel. And it was like describing every recent MacBook Pro disaster I've had over the last 5 years! I felt your pain and bravery. The two disk partitions separate code from data. Sometimes repairing just the os works. Other situations you have to nuke it to its birthday suit and rebuild it completely. Most of the time the complete refurbishing will yield a working system (until it happens again on some other edge). I typically keep a cloud, local time machine, and a carbon copy clone before I tear down. With that redundancy you can find an easy path to restore to last good state (or you hope it was a good state). A lot of time if I debug deeply I find something plugged into the Thunderbolt ports is failing and bringing everyone down. Good video
@@SUGULU01 I'll check him out. Thanks. So far my new M1 MacBook Air is doing nicely, but of course it doesn't have the same use cases as my monster 4 thunderbolt port i9 MBP 16".
Mac: sorry we couldn't unmount the hard drive partition because its in use by another program/process Ken: can we umount and erase? Mac: DiD YoU JuSt TrY ThAt AgAiN!? Ken; you son of a *honk finger* Me: *laughs*
"Man, those fans are LOUD!" Believe me, I had a 2012 Macbook Air(and still do) and I worked that thing TO DEATH. Those fans are quiet compared to mine.
If you still don’t have it fixed, you did say yourself: It is part of the EFI, which the Mac will have to undergo a clean installation. You’ll have to get the installer from a different Mac to ensure that the issue doesn’t persist. Hope this helps.
My theory is that you're stuck in the basement of Deep 13, forced to perform reviews and do tech support for the Mads, as they monitor your reaction to weird hardware glitches.
Dang, I have basically the same exact model as you as my daily machine since college in 2013. I'm dreading the day something happens to it and I can't fix it.
If this issue re-appears, it’s most likely a symptom of when you installed Big Sur back in July. Big Sur (for some completely random reason) rewrites stuff the BIOS when upgrading to it for the first time. This has caused many black screen issues on Retina MBPs and even sleep issues on newer MBPs. I’m assuming this issue started after you upgraded to Big Sur. I would advice caution before upgrading to it, you might want to wait a little longer than you usually would.
Ever since I download Big Sur I’ve been having this exact issue. My screen blanks randomly and is a hassle to get back up and running. Then 2 minutes troubleshooting it’s working just fine exactly where I left off.
I know, right? I was like "click there to show the storage device, dude!". It was PAINFUL af, very cringe to be honest, i mean, he is supposed to know basic stuff like that.
@@ComputerClan you installed a new SSD from OWC which has sleep and hibernation issues in 2013 and 2014 macbooks, however Apple updated the NVMe driver on this old machines in Big Sur so the issue doesn't happen anymore, that's why you didn't had this issue there
I have this issue too. When I put my laptop to sleep sometimes it restarts and kernel panics. It’s done this 2 times. I am running macOS 11.0.1 (Dev Beta)
I work on Macs professionally everyday. A few things you didn't try off the bat. NVRAM and SMC resets, when trying to format the drive, you didn't select show all devices, this prevents you from completely formatting the SSD.
I had issues this one too I was owned MacBook Pro 13 inch early 2015 within macOS Catalina. Then I got MacBook Pro 13 inch 2018 with TouchBar no problems!
My mid 2012 cuts out while I sleep but doesn’t seem to be any where near as bad as yours. I also noticed that when I patched it to Big Sur (thanks BenSova) it doesn’t do it any more.
Protip: it's better to just use internet recovery for a fresh install, and remember to select 'view devices' in disk utility, which makes the available drives and partition schemes easier to understand, plus you can just erase and reformat the entire system drive
I was having this issue in a 16 inch MacBook pro with 1TB SSD and 16GB of ram. I had multiple genius bar appointments where they wiped the computer and said they couldn't recreate the issue. It kept happening at home and finally, on the third appointment it happened in front of the tech/genius bar rep at the apple store and that's when they said we can do 1 of 2 things. Since I had AppleCare on the MBP at the time and they made me go through 3 separate appointments for this one issue the Genius Bar manager/supervisor/lead gave me 2 options. Option 1 was to do an exception return and return it for my full money back, $2800 plus the tax(they didn't let me return the AppleCare), and option 2 was to swap it for a brand new 16-inch MBP. I took my money back and I'm so glad I did. I just used $1750 of it to purchase a MBA with the M1 chip with 8 core GPU, 16GB of ram, and a 1 TB SSD and Apple care.
Just a question , you think that Mac with M1 will run as smooth after 7yrs? Im shopping for a new mac. My mac mini is 2012 and I upgrade the hell out of it already 1T SSD ,16G ram. I just hear all the hype on the M1 chip and thinking maybe its time to upgrade.
do you have a reason why you use a 2013 macbook pro? and not a 2015 one? i want to upgrade my early 2011 sometime for a 2015 15 inch one but i need a model with a gpu since i do use the graphics from time to time
I remember we are having those kind of issues with regards to encrypted file system, Bluetooth devices do bug on encrypted file system as well *This is based on my experience at work*
I have had this issue before on my macs. Mainly when I installed Catalina on all my machines using the same installer file. Downloading another instance of the Catalina installer file fixed this issue after reinstalling with it.
It's the hard drive... probably you changed it for a NVME with the special interface. Just disable deep sleep (I think it called), and you will be fine, however when the computer is suspended will drain battery faster. Another approach is to replace the hard drive with one of the expensive that apple use (OWC sells those). The problem resides in the lack of support for NVME drives in the EFI, more modern macs don't have this problem, just the old ones. My MBAir 2014 13" have the same issue. I just turn off the deepsleep.
Hi Ken, I just bought a 2008 MacBook as "defective - for hobbyists only". And what can I say: works perfectly. And what can I say, still no spare parts for my other MacBook (which also works, but it's part of a tiny little mod-project).
Ken help please :( I have an early 2011 13-inch MB Pro. It has two partitions, one for Snow Leopard 10.6 and another one for Mountain Lion 10.8. When i turned on my mac , it booted into Mountain Lion just fine. But after a few mins of using it, the mouse cursor stopped moving and everything stopped working. I restarted my computer but it gave me a kernel panic. I tried booting into recovery and internet recovery but the screen froze when i tried to do anything hard drive-related(eg. Erasing disk, reinstalling macOS). Is there a problem with the hard drive or the motherboard? I dont know whats the issue. Pls help!
I had the same problem on my 13inch 2014 MacBook Pro, where after sleep it would be stuck on the password screen and both keyboard and trackpad not responding and therefore needer a reboot. After a reset the problem disappeared.
Oddly familiar to when your MacBook Pro was freezing and you had Apple replace all the hardware BEFORE you discovered it to be related to a simple software issue😅
Yeah… I was thinking about that while making this episode. x_x For the record, I only asked them to replace the SSD, but they insisted to replace the SSD and the board. Oops. Oh well… didn't cost me any money. : p
I do fear it is the SSD.... I've had several people say the same thing. I have some more tests in mind! Even though the Mac worked in the episode (after the reformat and reinstall) 2 days later… the issue came back. So a follow-up episode is in order!
I have a MacBook that would overheat when it was sleeping, and also had a microphone that did not work. I upgraded to Big Sur, and every single one of those issues is now gone completely. Maybe the resign actually did something more useful than making your mac look like a glorified iPad?
I have an 15 inch MacBook pro retina from mid 2012 and when the charger is not plugged in and it’s asking for power it turns off and this happened when the battery is at 70/60% maybe is the battery but sometimes it does happens no matter what and it’s not overheating...
@@ComputerClan woah, hey Ken! No I actually never tried that but I may now. Until now, I chalked it up to “must be the old battery” like you did! Glad you posted this!
@@Sykora171 someone said in another comment its due to replaced ssd's having a problem with nvme controller. said apple fixed this with big sir update. i wonder if im having issue too, i have original ssd too. is it that sleep takes a while to engage. still hear fans after closing lid?
I had this same issue with my early 2020 MacBook Pro 16" before I took it back. it would randomly/occasionally reboot and come back with that error. I now have the MacBook Pro 13" M1 and it has no such issues.... so I'm not sure tbh
Meanwhile my Mac just can’t even deep sleep anymore, crashes almost instantly when deep sleeping on low power- and Catalina being Catalina; it’s been persistent since the betas
Can’t see anyone saying about the EFI issue. When you installed another OS it must have corrupted the EFI partition of the drive. Wiping the drive and Reinstalling is the best thing unless you have a backup for the EFI. You can use clover 🍀 to mount the EFI partition (I did this to install open core on my Mac Pro 2010) you could have fixed it easily from there. But again you wouldn’t have had a backup of the EFI drive This is the issue
'Failed to umnount currently in use' Ah yes, i had someone call me with this problem because they wanted to format their USB, they were actually trying to format the UEFI/recovery partition. When you get this message, and you're already in recovery, it probably means that is where recovery lives, not sure, rarely work on Macs, maybe there is a seperate eMMC on the motherboard where the OS/UEFI tools reside

Holy shit, is that thing behind you an old iMac with Big Sur?
It's the same problem with hackintosh, can't really find anything to do with it please help: (
'Failed to umnount currently in use' Ah yes, i had someone call me with this problem because they wanted to format their USB, they were actually trying to format the UEFI/recovery partition. When you get this message, and you're already in recovery, it probably means that is where recovery lives, not sure, rarely work on Macs, maybe there is a seperate eMMC on the motherboard where the OS/UEFI tools reside
I've installed Big Sur on my MBP 15" (late-2013)
