Retina Macbook Pro- Video Corruption on Wake

[thebritishguy]

Hi All

I have the 2.6/8/512 RMBP.

Around 50% of the time when it wakes up from sleep (lid shut then open) I am seeing massive video corruption on applications across the board including Mail, Safari, office Etc. Anyone else experiencing this?

The screen is set to "Retina" i.e. 1920 x 1200 HiDPI

A reboot fixes the issue but this is becoming very annoying

thanks

I have the same model and mine has never done that... Drop it like it's hot and return it for another!

I've had a few times in the past week that something like what you're describing has happened. I hadn't traced it back to happening after sleep though. I just figured there will be a video update hopefully soon that'll take care of it. A reboot sets things straight.

BTW, your mail icon is calling out for help

Have you guys run the apple hardware test? Maybe there's some corrupt graphics memory causing it intermittently.

I've run the extended test a few times and everything came out ok

I've experienced it too. Rather than reboot though, I just change the resolution with SwitchResX - fixes it right up.

That hardly sounds like a fix. Sounds like these are some buggy machines.

Very helpful Bleeding edge tech's not for everyone. Feel free to wait a couple generations.

I've seen this issue across a bunch of devices, not just the rMBP. It'd happen to my mid 2010 and early 2011 MBPs as well.

I wanted to bump an older thread but this has happened to me twice when waking the computer. I've had the rMBP for only a couple of days now. I'm sure it's a software glitch that should be fixed with an update.
