Q: Mac book quits spontaneously

My MacBook pro (mid 2010) using Yosemite 10.10.5 OS and Intel Core 15 2.53 gHz processor sometimes shuts down and restarts spontaneously. Any idea why?

Also reports get sent to Apple. How can I find out what they say?

MacBook Pro, Yosemite 10.10.5 operating system

Suggest you post the kernel panic (or a few) to the forum and someone will see if they can figure out what is causing your panics

In addition to the report, try running this program and then copy and paste the output in a reply. The program was created by Etresoft, a frequent contributor. Please use copy and paste as screen shots can be hard to read.
