Hi !
I'm running 10.6.8 on an older macbook (maybe 2007 version). About two weeks ago it restarted for no reason. One week later this occurred again and since then has become a more and more frequent occurrence.
I can almost guarantee it will re-boot if I do one of the following:
- open to many applications or internet browsers
- plug something into the usb port after it's been on for awhile
- unplug my power adapter (even though battery is at 100%).
I've tried a few things such as holding down OPTION+APPLE+P+R when restarting. I've also reset the SMC. And I removed spotlight function.
Some days the macbook will stay on all day and be fine. Others, I can't even open up an internet browser. Yesterday I worked on it for approx 8 hours in a row, left for 2 hours and when I took it off sleep mode it immediately re-booted on me. I purchased extra RAM years ago so it shouldn't be lack of processing power.
Below is also the most recent CONSOLE report. here: http://pastebin.com/D5udyp8J
My console report is about 50 pages long from the last day so I've only included the most recent stuff.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
