MacBook Pro 2016 touch bar randomly crashes

Same issue here. I've just been trying to get all of my music into iTunes and iCloud and it crashes constantly. Most recently it's having a hard time even starting up. Probably going to return it and try another, but I'm assuming it's a software issue. I paid way too much to have an issue like this.

According to some users who beta-testing 10.12.2, this crashing issue have been resolved & they've suceesfully transfer huge files. So hang onto your hat, hopefully this update is just around the corner.

Same problem here (Macbook Pro 2016 13" - 16Gb - 512Gb SSD) with Sierra 10.12.2. For me there is no relation with backup. It crashes when I try to wake up it (pressing touch id button).

Hi,

I have been experiencing the speed about 5-10 mili-seconds slower since I have install the new software update (one day ago) on my new MacBook Pro 15.4-inch 2016 touch bar and ID.

This speed is the same as my MacBook pro 2010 15-inch.

If the cost is the highest then the experiencing should be the least.

The first 2 were on 10.12.1

The third is on 10.12.2

So yeah... no bug was fixed on my computer with the 10.12.2 update. Guess I'll have to return my SECOND MacBook Pro 15" touch bar.... I am so disappointed. I left Windows because of SW crashes and crap. Luckily my Lenovo at work blue screens every month or so too... So I guess crashing is the new normal.

Hi,

FWIW, a client of mine was experiencing a similar problem on her new 2016 15" MBP w/TB with a USB-C to USB adapter-connected 4TB Seagate Plus USB 3.0 portable drive selected as the Time Machine backup destination. Consistently when trying to complete the initial 650GB+ TM backup of her laptop SSD the ext HD would suddenly unmount, an error message about the "disk not being ejected properly" would pop up and ultimately the laptop would just shut itself down entirely, or occasionally just spontaneously reboot itself (but the ext HD would not remount). Sometimes there would be no warning and the laptop would just shut down. When the ext HD was connected to one of the USB ports on her 27" Thunderbolt monitor, it would also exhibit the same behavior.

I won't go into what 2 different Apple senior support techs told her as reasons/excuses, as they were literally some of the most shocking/ridiculous things I had ever heard regarding an issue like this. In the end, what fixed my client's problem was simply updating her macOS Sierra from 10.12.1 to the latest 10.12.2. No problem with USB3 external peripherals crashing the laptop after that, either connected to the laptop via the adapter or the TB monitor. The initial TM backup executed without a hitch, as well as subsequent hourly ones, and the external HD has encountered no sporadic unmountings and the laptop has not frozen, shut down or spontaneously rebooted since. Even after I had her do this I had her keep her Genius Bar appointment so they could run their full suite of diagnostics on the laptop, just in case, but it passed everything optimally. Her tech at the GB said as part of the 10.12.2 update there was a firmware update component, so we are guessing that did something to fix her specific issue.

Hopefully this easy and simple fix will work for some others...

this is the message I get:

I ended up taking mine back and ordering another. I haven't had any issues with the new one.

I am going to try this (No power nap and no notifications while in sleep mode) before installing the new Beta

I was just watching a YouTube video and partway through my MacBook Pro 13" Touch Bar and LG 5K display went black and the computer crashed.

Have you tested the MBP without the 5K monitor to see if reliability improves?

I had a lot less problems before I added the LG 5k display, but I'm not giving that up!

I am in the same boat as you, it is such a great monitor that I have to keep it at all cost, never seen anything better.

RIght now I am testing 10.12.3 Beta 4 I hope it will solve the problem

Has the beta resolved your issue? I am experiencing similar issues when connected to my 30 inch displays.

Same here, MBP with Touchbar, randomly freezes. I'm coming from a previous MBP Retina and had no issues before.
