I have a MBA 2012
After I´ve installed Mav I get random glitches with the graphics. I have re-booted several times. I occurs both in dual screen use as normal laptop use. Sometimes its only in the dock but some times all over the screen as in the attached picture... Is there any solution or fix? Does anyone else have the same issue?
MacBook Air, OS X Mavericks (10.9)
Looks like graphics card issue. Run Apple Hardware Test

Do you have AppleCare?
Ok, But it started after installing Mavericks never had a issue before...
Done the hardware test now, Doesn´t find anything wrong...
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar to diagnose.
This is what I am geting alot of after installing Maverick. Very annoying have to reboot to get rid of it.
And what does AHT report?
i´ll try to rollback from Maverick first to see if it´s maverick that couses the glitches first
Now I did the extended AHT and it didn´t find anything wrong... Where do you find the log files for these tests?
Try an SMC reset and/or a PRAM reset.
I'm not sure where those logs are kept.
Done them both now... Sadly they didn´t help... 😟
Don´t have an external drive to do backups on so can´t roll back from mavericks to mountain lion...
Gracile2: Have you found any solution?
You really that external or cloud storage to get that backup on. I wouldn't attempt to revert without a good backup. I wouldn't attempt to do anything without a good backup.
I wonder if the battery management have a problem with the graphic card.
I have the problem, and continues to.
issue was updated for the first time
Taked it in to The Genius Bar for a free diagnosis.
Well the problem is that I live in sweden and we only have one of those and it's really far away. So i'm really trying to solve this without sendibg my mba away...
I have the same issue since updating to Mavericks. It most often seems to occur after the computer has been asleep, but also occurs without warning while using the computer. Restarting corrects the graphic problem for a time.
