new Macbook pro 2018 random restarts

David,

You are correct about the behaviour of homebrew and the software it installs. It isn't in your home directory.

However, that won't be a problem for Time Machine. It can restore all those files and make your new machine a clone of the old one.

The only time you have to be careful with this is when you try to use Time Machine to make a clone of an existing machine and then use both. There are some subtle problems with doing that. But if the new machine replaces the old one, Time Machine will restore it just fine.

First of all, I found this random restart issue is getting popular.

And here is from my MBP 2018.

I also bought mine 2 days ago. It hangs for a while, and then crashes.

It has happened twice in the last 2 days, here is the panic file from the latest.

I have the panic file from the latest. How can I send this to you because I can't open it?

I have exactly the same problem, bought the new MBP 2018 core i7 15 inch, CPU 2.6, 512GB SSD several days ago, and almost anytime the MPB sleeps for a long time, it reboots after waking up.

I see many "panic" file logs in /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/ProxiedDevice-Bridge/ (one per day)

Is this because of the new T2 chip?

End of report

For what its worth, I took my 13" Quadcore 500gig 16 gig RAM back to Apple store and after they asked a few questions about what I have done to attempt to resolve they offered to replace the device with what they had in the store.

They only had the 1Tb device in a like configuration, I did a little negotiation with them to not have to eat the full upgrade cost and essentially they said if I buy AppleCare on the spot with some business discounts it was pretty close to a wash.

I have been running this Mac in the same fashion I was the other with the same software, etc. and I have yet to have any resets in two and a half days.

I will keep everybody apprised.

Same thing happened to me today. I was watching a movie in VLC when everything froze and then the MacBook Pro 13 (2018) turned off. I had to press Touch ID (power button) for 10 secs and then again to boot it.

A panic-full.... ips was created (Bridge OS 2.4.1.)

You are not entirely on the right track. Tip macOS system level panics are logged as follows:

panic-full-yyyy-mm-dd-hhmmss.xxx.ips

under

/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/ProxiedDevice-Bridge/Retired

or one level up, if they are still staged in for uploading the reports to apple

This is tested to be true from MBP 15 2018

Same exact computer and same exact issue. Actually, I just bought this computer because my well-loved 2011 MBP 17” suddenly started doing this and I just assumed it was a video card issue and the cost would be too high to fix so I got this new one only to have the same thing occur!

Hi Guys I am having the same issue here...

It random restart with no reason.

The last time I was on Youtube. About 30 min ago it randomly shutdown, not crash report was shown after that :(

My macbook has about 10 days :(

The first time that happened I took it to the technical assistance in CompuB in Cork but no issues were found.

I cannot live with this issue as I have lost a chunk of work because of that.

Do we have a Macbook engineer looking into it?

Hi Guys,

I just upload a video in the youtube https://youtu.be/KvGq6wbjdL8 where the issue happen.

You can ear like a snap just before it restart, pretty annoying...

I am taking it back to the apple assistance for the third time with the same problem and see what they going to do about it.

Hi, Guys!

I have the same issue.

I’ve noticed this trouble appears each time I try enter system preferences menu. Moreover Touch ID icon in this menu appears a few seconds lately after opening the window. And then system goes fault.

This issue appeared on clean macOS Mojave. I did downgrade to High Sierra. No result(((

In High Sierra there is no Logs.

I am experiencing the exact same issue.

New MacBook Pro 2018, 13", 2,7 GHz i7.

Usually happens after leaving it for a while and it goes into sleep and then waking it up back again, then it randomly restarts. Very frustrating as much work was lost, for that pricepoint absolutely inacceptable.

Already tried to repair it, they switched the motherboard, but the issue is still there.

Any updates on this?
