DaVinci Resolve Lite 10.1.5 hangs with my Mac Pro Late 2013

Hello everyone,

I’ve got a big issue with DaVinci Resolve Lite 10.1.5 running on my brand new Mac Pro Late 2013.
The problem shows mainly when in the color tab I play DNG clips, the software hangs after a while (but never at the same time) leaving the system unstable in an inconsistent state: I can click the other clips but cannot playback; I can click around the other tabs but the functionalities does not react properly.
I can exit Resolve forcing quit, but I cannot execute anything else or even shutdown the Mac Pro.
I can only unplug and replug the power cord to make my Mac Pro boot again.
I tried to force OpenCL computation due to the fact my Mac has only AMD GPUs (quitting and reopening Resolve as required), w/o any results.

I brought back my Mac Pro to the Apple Technicians in my town as recommended by Italian Apple technical support because we thought it was a hardware related problem, but they didn’t find any hardware issues.

Is this problem related to the Lite version I am using? If so, please let me know how to buy the retail one.
Please help me to sort out this issue because I have urgent working needs.

Below you will find my Hardware Configuration.

You're running Maverick 10.9.3 I presume?

yes.

I have the full version of Davinci Resolve 10.1.5 and are using my Mac Pro 6 core, D700 Firepro with 40 GB of RAM, I'm also using Maverick 10.9.3.

I have exactly the same problem as Fabrizio Profeta ending up with a norwegian reset of the computer and pull out the power cord.

What is the problem?

10.9.3 is the problem. Roll back to 10.9.2

Is there a link anywhere on HOW to roll back to a prior version? I upgraded and I'm 100% borked…and need to roll back to previous version of Resolve, but not finding how to do this yet….

The answer now is to update to 10.9.4. That seems to solve most issues.

Hmm…that doesn't help me any.

I'm on:

Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63)


I've been trying to avoid going to Mavericks, as that I heard it still had problems slowing down many apps, especially ones that do background jobs, like rendering.



Thanks for the reply though!!

Cayenne, you jumped into the middle of a MacPro 6,1 Mavericks thread. What is your actual issue?
