Graphic issues after update to 10.12.4 (16E195)

These additional steps may help identify or resolve the issue:

• Reset the SMC.
• Reset NVRAM.
• Disconnect external devices other than your Apple keyboard, mouse, and display. If that resolves the issue, gradually reconnect your devices, testing each time, until you find the device that is interfering with sleep. Then check the documentation that came with the device, or contact the device manufacturer.
• Start up in Safe Mode to see if the issue is related to non-Apple startup items, login items, or kernel extensions.
• Try to isolate the issue by using another user account.

I'm having some problems after this update as well. Twice the computer has frozen completely, needing Cmd-Alt-Power for 10 seconds to restart. A few times it's slowed to a crawl, and I've experienced graphics corruption. The only change I made after upgrade was to enable Night Shift. I've turned it off to see if it will make a difference, though my most recent issues were in the morning, when it wouldn't be enabled anyway.

Well, turns out that I've got the same issue with MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2016).

Version 10.12.3 was working fine, after the update I'm getting several glitches that produces red zones on the screen.

It's even managed to capture it using the default System Screen Capture:

Also this one:

This appears to happen just when I attach external displays, note on regular only notebook usage.

Regards.

PS: Please don't come with the "Reset PRAM" or the other usual ****, this is a bug!

I have this same issue and I'm not using any external devices or screens. I would like to downgrade to 10.12.3 but in my work computer the company does not have Time Machine enabled (yes, I know…). So I'm trying to go ahead and go through this until a fix is released.

In my case it happens all around the screen but sometimes specially in some panels in Adobe software which I use at work, usually the Creative Cloud Library panel (see image). Also when it goes wild, windows are rendered black and you can't use anything since you can't see buttons or else, but they are there (the pointer usually works, and you can see it change normally).

I've got the same issue on my iMac after 10.12.14 update. Main display is glitchy all the time, on animations on the UI and especially noticeable on dark backgrounds. I'm running an external hard drive and the glitches seem to be in sync with the disk reads.

I have also a graphic issue after updating to 10.12.4 (16E195) last night (Thursday, March 30). The main display glitch from time to time especially the icons in the dock. I have a MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015) and have no issues with it during more than 1 year that I am using it.

The glitch is more dominant when the system wake up from sleep but also happens from time to time afterwards.

Is there anyway to recover to old version, since that one works perfect?

Hello,

i have the same pb with the new Macbook Pro 2016 15"

My pb is only related to the radeon 450 because using gfxcard and blocking the use on intel hd graphic 530 I have no pb with the display.

For info, I'm on Macbook pro 2016 15 "

And I have this pb only since the upgrade in 10.12.4

Could you help me or tell me how to downgrade to 10.12.3

Regards

I am also seeing problems with internal/external display switching with the new drivers. Now when restarting the laptop closed with an external display using a dock it does correctly work and even rotate the display. But then you cannot use the laptop undocked at all without restarting. So there are definitely switching problems with the new software.

I agree with you. Exactly the same scenario in my case. Restored system to 10.12.3 from time machine and everything works like before. I am waiting for next update now and I hope that it will fix those problems.

That would work. The previous drivers were causing my system to hang when I was clicking and by mistake caused the four finger swipe to kick in. It would permanently hang and I had to force shutdown. I think these drivers need a bunch of help :-(

I certainly have graphics issues on my main screen, even without any external devices attached. There is a youtube video (by someone else) showing the glitches: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Nl436whOIM

I'm on 10.12.4 (obviously) on a MacBookPro12,1 (13" Early 2015) with an i7 and 16 GB of RAM.

Even if changing this setting "resolved" anything the original problem would still need to be fixed. This setting is not useful for people that actually want battery life when the system is not plugged into power.

I have noticed two direct things with display after updating to this exact release.

1. DisplayLink monitors only display when you are actively using them and have a super hard time repainting. (This has never been and issue in the past)

2. Scroll bars render very strangely; a lot of time content content sits below or on top of scroll bars. I have noticed that this is only when a track pad is in use; If I close my laptop and use a mouse the scroll bars render differently and the issue goes away.

Granted these two things are unlike your issue but instability of display is a general feeling I get after updating to this version. So I commiserated with you.

Forgot to mention, I'm on a new old MBP, just purchased in March:
