Every other app I have running, to include "helper" apps like Alfred and Magnet, show up in this tab. That's when I queried it and found Zotero was the issue.Ī side issue: Zotero does not show up in the Energy tab of Activity Monitor. Somewhere in that process (a couple URLs in), the notification from gfxCardStatus popped up saying it was switching from integrated to discrete graphics. The one data point I have: I had several tabs open (>10), and then proceeded to go through each one and hit the Safari Zotero plugin button.
Yesterday's the first time I noticed the graphics switch during my usage. Problem is.I usually use Zotero with an external display connected in that setup the discrete graphics is always on.
Thanks in advance to whoever reads this and fixes the bug! I killed wifi, bluetooth, every app I could.and would have *never* thought Zotero was part of the issue until I saw it for myself. When I attempted to force the integrated graphics mode, it prohibited the operation and told me that Zotero was the offending user.Īs I cannot see any conceivable reason why this is the case (the app only says that Zotero is in some "dependencies list"), I'm coming here in hopes that a Zotero developer will see this and figure it out.īefore running the gfxCardStatus app, I was wondering constantly why my battery was dying prematurely on my brand new laptop. Using the gfxCardStatus app, I notice when downloading new articles via the Safari widget that the discrete graphics card switched on.
Gfxcardstatus integrated only not working pro#
I've tested and confirmed that under unknown circumstances, Zotero is causing my MacBook Pro to switch to, and remain "stuck" in, the "high performance graphics" mode, rather than using the more energy efficient integrated graphics.
