Problem running third party apps in clean installed mavericks HELP....Consol code knowledge needed!

Yo Guys

I've had some kernel problems with my mid2010 MBP, problems booting, crashes etc. so decided to make a clean install of mavericks, first through the recovery partion, later at the genius bar (they coudnt help me and blamed my toshiba HD (not generic mac) allthough i strongly doubt its the HD since it has passed every test.

still i've no thirdparty apps installed, so when after the clean install i tried to install spotify, it hangs(keeps bouncing in dock), same goes for transmission. This happens the same before and after my clean install, but didnt two weeks ago...WEIRD!

What makes it all weirder is that the spotify install will run and install in safe boot, but it doesnt in normal mode.....

I can add a etrecheck but since its only a mevericks install you guys could guess the results, everything tests perfect......Its like i've MBP with a burnout, no doctor or app or diagnositc can find any flaw, geniusses arent so genius when behind my laptop, but it behaves very ill.....all&all its just super weird.

I hope some of you guys are able to read the code in consol, and maybe shine a light on whats wrong. I see some problem occuring the Kernel mach and libsystem_kernel.dylib) and (libsystem_pthread.dylib) still i've no idea how to fix or what it means...

this is the log of transmission, which usually just runs inside its app.

Ok, After I changed my RAM and HDD without the problem going, I in all my frustration installed my Toshiba HDD and original RAM back in, and decided to search for help....

This was easier said than done here in Amsterdam, a lot of guys are able to do repairs, but when everything seems to work it does it gets harder, everybody came back empty handed. I kept using the laptop which was acctually only able to run safari and had sleep wake faillures.

And than............my macbook crashed, restarts itself...........and worked again......I couldnt believe my eyes....

I cannot wrap my head around this.......it revived itself.....

i dont know if this whole thing is sad or amazing....

but for now i'm on the road again, allthough i dont know how, or why.... 😀😟 real microsoft vibes going through my room ATM

FYI - I had this same problem on Yosemite. Spotify, Viber, Chrome and other apps would bounce in the dock while loading and then hang.

I posted my information here

https://www.reddit.com/r/applehelp/comments/3py0oj/chrome_spotify_and_viber_will _not_open_xpost_from/

My solution seems to be related to issues with dynamic GPU switching. It is described in the Reddit post, but I will repost here as well:

OK! SOLVED (sorta)

I have a workaround and I will use this to further determine a permanent solution, unless someone can provide an explanation or next steps.

Some more web searching led me to a discussion about graphic issues with the mid 2010 MBP. One thread had a developer who created this tool https://gfx.io/ which allows you to monitor GPU performance, but more importantly (for me) manually switch between "dynamic switch mode", "integrated GPU" or "Discrete Only".

If I am in Dynamic Switch mode, the apps hang, either of the other 2 modes, they start up!

Initially, when I tried to switch, there was an error that said switch was not possible when Google Chrome Helper was running, so I killed that process, then switched. Chrome and Viber and Photoshop all work as expected. I will reinstall Spotify, but I expect it will work as well.

Thanks for all for the help that jump started things in this direction! I will post this in the related thread as well.
