Q: MacBook Pro Shutting Down Without Warning
At least once a day, my MacBook shuts down and restarts. I haven't noticed any correlation with an opened program. I copied the error message, but since I have NO expertise in software, it's meaningless to me. Here's the beginning of the message:
*** Panic Report ***
panic(cpu 1 caller 0xffffff800341e80a): Kernel trap at 0xffffff7f83a3a93e, type 14=page fault, registers:
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Rich
MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2010), OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)

Page fault errors are memory errors. You have 8 G ram right? But you have programs running in the background, like the ones that Ogelthorpe pointed out. Plus whatever your running at the time . Looks like, by the report you sometimes have multiple apps open also.
