ABSOLUTELY FRUSTRATED!! I have had my Macbook Air i7 for 2 weeks, it's died, had a new logic board, it's not gone to sleep. So I reset the P-Ram, that basically broke it again. Resetting SMC saved it. Crashes 4-6 times a day, it's not Chrome. It's cursed.
That's right, it's already had a new logic board. The machine was dead. Bricked.
2012 MacBook Air, maxed out, 512GB SSD & 8GB RAM with the top of the range i7 package.
It seems cursed, it's in no way stable. Basic functions are not working, it's freezing at a hardware level that is fundamental.
I have had a core duo 13 inch Air for nearly two years and that was hardy and has worked flawlessly.
How many other Air owners, new 2012 are in the same boat?
When my machine failed there were at least 5 others on here with the same problem. Machine would not power on.
Since getting fixed, the machine has done this.
> Will not sleep when lid closes.
> Reset PRAM
> Will not restart.
> Reset SMC
> CPU panic on eventual restart.
> Forever stuck on grey screen.
> Have to hard reset.
> Seems fine.
> Will not wake up from sleep, have to hard restart.
> Will crash during screen saver, have to hard restart.
> Crashed 4-6 times a day, have to hard restart.
Frustrated.
I am going to leave it in Windows via bootcamp for a few days and see if that resolves it.
