Hello, I have a mid 2012 MacBook pro. Original hard drive switched for SSD and battery has been replaced multiple times. 2 issues that I'm hoping to get help with.
I have the crash log from when the MacBook restarts. If someone could help me interpret I'd really appreciate it. Main thing I want to know is if this a software or hardware problem. Thank you!
