Hi, I was wondering if anyone has encountered this?

I have an early 2011 Macbook Pro. Since I've installed Mountain Lion, the following has happened twice. I shut off the computer, sometime later turned it on and during startup (right after desktop appeared) it shut off. No reboot loop, nothing like that, it simply shut off. Both times I entered into safe mode by holding Shift key. In safe mode I basically did nothing, just rebooted the computer, and voile, it is working like charm now.

What do you think this is? In disk utility I checked all my partitions - no error was found on any.... What my concern is if it happened twice, it'll happen more (since I don't know what the cause was, nor what fixed it). Any ideas?

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)

Hi gyongyosim,


There's no harm in removing the software if you think this may be the cause, let us know if you do decide to remove it and if that makes any difference.


Just because other users of the software aren't reporting any issues doesn't mean to say they don't exist and in some cases it could be down to indivdiual setup 🙂
