mba-2012 freezes, ways to diagnost
Hello all! Here is my situation:
- 13 inch mba 2012, i7 2.0, 8GB, 256GB
- lastest OS X with the lastest update available on this moment
- freezes from time to time. From time to time means 3-4 per month, or 1 per 2 month, randomly but not very often.
Characteristics of freezing:
- totaly, only restarting only using power button
- freezes in 98 windows style if such ajective is possible. Generally all sounds (music, system, video) hangs with a hickups. All other keeps being still. No mose move no nothing.
As for me it seems like hardware problem may be SSD or memory, but I have no idea how to investigate this kinda of issue.
I have a ligal US warranty but I'm a Ukrainian citizen and have no option for a official service. I probably could bring it to third party service center, but it is my only one laptop for work and entertaiment so, it is the last option that I'd prefer.
the question to the community is foollowing:
- does somebody have the same issues, especially on the same hardware?
- any ideas for diagnostic and investigation methods? how to parse logs?
- can I get some assistance from US apple tech support? (I have leagal warranty yet)
From my side I'm ready to give you all necessary information about this case. Hoping to get some help here 🙂
Cheers!
