My new (late 2013) iMac keeps rebooting due to kernel panic

I just picked up a brand-new iMac and pumped it up with 32Gb of RAM. Kinda surprised to have unexpected restarts twice a day (although it really does reboot FAST) Sorta bad though as I'm a designer and need to keep saving my projects every 30 seconds for fear of crashes.
Anybody else? Here's the report.... Fun part is the BSD process name is different every time

SInce it's a new machine, contact Apple's Support, formerly Apple Express Lane and let them deal with it.
Alternatively, boot into safe mode (restart holding down SHIFT key). If no KP, then uninstall and reinstall Parallels. If KP, then most likely hardware related. Run the Apple Hardware Test suite, extended tests at least twice, followed by Rember.  See

  • My late 2012 iMac keeps shuting down by Kernel Panics

    I been having several Kernel Panics on the last few days. I ran an AHT and it returned a memory failure so I contacted OWC to replace the modules. I extracted the modules yesterday and will ship them by the end of the week. The KPs still happening, AHT says everything is ok. I thought it was my TB-FW adapter that I use for external hard drives but even if I unplug it the mac keeps shuting down. I ran Onyx to repair permissions ans sed me to Disk Utility due a Disk error. I ran Disk Utiliry in repair mode and it says it can't repare the dik and I need to format and back up data. I am trying to back up but KPs dont let me. Here is the first KP message on Mar 21 an the last on Mar 25. Hope someone can help. Thank you all!

    I removed the two DIMMs and I'm writing this on safe mode. I have noticed some flickering on the display, but not the entire screen. Let's say in Safari, the progres barr flickers or while scrolling. Is this normal?
    This is the las KP I have had. This was before I remove the RAM.

  • Why does my iPad keeps connecting and disconnecting from the new late 2013 iMac

    Hi there,
    I've recently bought a new late 2013 iMac and ever since then I'm not able to connect my iPad 2 to it. When I do connect it keeps connecting and disconnecting  again and again for some reason. The cable is fine and I've tried it with other devices. Just wondered why this is and whether you guys can help me out.
    Thanks a lot!
    CitizenJohnny

    Hi,
    I had the same problem and just found a solution. I tryed restoring all content and settings on the iPad (Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings). It took lots of time, however it didn´t work because when I connected the iPad and iMac the problem persisted.
    Then I thought it wasn´t an iPad problem but iMac OSX problem. So I searched the web for "Reinstall Mavericks" and found this http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13871?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US.
    It also takes like 6 hours with my internet speed. Next day I connected the iPad and everything is just fine.
    I described both processes because I don´t know if in the end the iPad reset helped in the solution.
    Hope that helps! good luck

  • I just bought the new late 2013 iMac.  Can I get the new iWork for free?

    I just bought a new late 2013 iMac.  Can I get the new iWork for free?  I updated it to Mavericks also.  The Mac App store is showing $19.99 for each iWork component (Pages, Numbers, Keynote).  I also bought the previous iWork version, if that matters.  Free updates for iPhoto and  iMovie seemed to show up with no problems.  Maybe these are just glitches that will clear up in a couple of days?

    Hi.  If you want it to get updated, this should take care of it.
    1. Uninstall iWork from your Mac.
    2. Do a fresh install of iWork from DVD.
    3. Install iWork update from Apple Downloads (direct link here:  http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1563)
    4. Sign into the Mac App Store, and check for updates.  It should now show up as a free update.  You may have to give it a few minutes (i.e. 10-15 minutes).
    I've been a Windows user for years, so I know all of the tricks by now.  I had hoped I would not need this knowledge for a Mac, but oh well...
    Good luck.

  • After upgrade to OSX Mavericks my 2009 MBP keeps crashing due to kernel panic

    After upgrade to OSX Mavericks my 2009 MBP keeps crashing due to kernel panic (happens every 20 minutes or so). Please help me with this, it's getting very frustrating. Have tried disk utility, there were errors (file system was corrupted), the disk utility managed to repair the disk but the crashes continue.

    Hi, thanks for the reply. I deleted some of the old stuff that showed up on the report (have removed virtual box long ago but some residual files were apparently left). It didn't help though. Will remove forticlient too as a test.
    Meanwhile here's the new etre-check and crash report:

  • Dead Fusion drive, brand new Late 2013 iMac. No status update from Apple.

    Can someone let me know who I shouyld contact with regards to my below issue? I've spent hours upon hours trying to get my new iMac back from Apple store here in New York city, no success.
    Purchased a new Late 2013 model 21" build-to-order iMac 3 months ago >
    Hard drive partition corrupt within first month which required in store HD partition correction flash via genius bar >
    HD hardware failed next month >
    Genius appointment Feb 6 2014, was told new fusion drive was required and would take "2-3 days" >
    7 days later I went in-store for status and was told they had no info and would call me with an update >
    3 more days I go in store again after no call, still no status update >
    Forced to purchase a new cheaper PC so I could keep working from home >
    Now its 13-14 days later, I just spent over 2 more hours with Apple Support and still no results, now waiting for store Manager (“Matt”, W 14th St store in NYC) to call me. Its been 5 hours since my call this morning.
    I have purchased a new computer as I work from home and cannot be without a computer fofr my job. This is ridiculous, I demanded a refund yet was told because I purchased from an authorized reseller (Tekserve - tekserve.com ) and not an actual Apple store, they cannot refund. Tekserve receipt states all support must go through Apple as it’s a build-to-order system. I paid over $1800 for this iMac (2.7GHZ quad core, 16gb RAM, Fusion drive etc..) a few months ago and it’s been the worst experience I’ve ever had with Apple in 7 years. Pi55ed off. Give me a new exact model iMac today OR give me a refund.
    Apple employee, Look up the below repair ID, it'll have my cell phone number attached. Call me anytime with a solution. I've spent hours and hours on calls with Apple support with no results, no return calls from store manager.
    Serial: D25LG******* / Repair ID R114745188

    Thats my only option, I shall visit the store this evening and demand to see the manager.
    Buying from an Authorized Apple reseller should never mean I get any less support than buying direct from Apple.
    You're totally correct on both counts, when you ask to speak to the manager, even though you may be tempted to be angry the best approach to handling the situation is by being; calm, organzied and persistent. Bring all receipts, include names, times, places of who you spoke to and state your case.
    I'm sure your issue will be addressed. In addition if you are in the US you can always call Apple's customer relations phone number, I believe the current number is 800-767-2775.
    Good luck.

  • New late 2013 iMac running slow

    I purchased a new 21 in iMac in Dec 2013 (late 2013 model), and ever since, its been running very slow. Its slowness is mostly erratic and random, however very noticeable while running Office for Mac documents (Word & Excel), it takes anything from 30 sec - 1 min just to launch these apps. And equally slow while running Aperture (I am a photographer and this is my primary app). I usually end up restarting the iMac several times a day in the hope that it'll speed up. Every one who has seen me work on it has laughed that its slower than most ancient Windows machines.
    Over the past few months, with support from Apple customer service, I have reformatted, re-partitioned and reinstalled Maverics on the iMac (and my MBP, which has the same issues), and done everything else that apple normally recommends as routine procedure, but no improvement in performance. The Apple support person has now stopped responding to my calls or emails.
    What could be possible issues?
    In my system preferences pane, there is 'Flash player' and 'Java' in the non-system apps installed. I guess we cant do without either of these.
    Could there be a problem with my data? The data on my iMac is the same as on my MBP, as I transfered it via TimeMachine when i purchased the iMac.

    hi Here is the report from EtreCheck generated on my iMac. Any suggestions on what the issue could be and how to resolve it are welcome. There is 200+ GB free space on the 1TB drive.

  • IBooks Author VERY slow on new, late 2013 iMac

    I have an iBook that is about 100mb that I am writing. The book is tediously slow to work on. Moving widgets around takes on inordinate amount of time and sometimes blows up the formatting of the book. On my old Mac Pro Late 2008, I never experienced this.
    I am running Mavericks 10.9.1 on a late 2013 iMac 3.5GHz Core i7, 16gb RAM, 500GB SSD.
    Has anyone else have this problem or know a solution?
    Thanks

    I'm in the same problem.
    iBooks is became unusable.
    I have published numerous ibooks, but an old update of iBooks (already with Mountain Lion, don'tv remember when), is became very very slow, with the same Mac.
    Now I have update to Mavericks (now 10.9.1) hoping to solve the problem, in vain.
    I have a MacBook pro 17" later 2011, 2,5 Ghz, Intel core i7, 16gb ram and i work only with iBooks Author and OpenOffice.
    Who can help me?
    Thanks

  • Is anyone gaming on the new (Late 2013) iMac 21.5" with the 750M?

    My (Late 2009) iMac needs a new Logic Board so I'm not replacing it.
    I think I'll just get a new one. I have the 27" 2.8 i7 with the HD4850 512MB card.
    I'm thinking of downsizing to the 21" but going for the 256 flash drive and 16GB RAM and hoping the 1gb graphics card is enough of an upgrade.
    I don't want to have to spend another ~$500 on the 27" to go for the 780M (4gb). I'd rather spend that $500 on an external 3 or 4gb USB 3 &amp; AppleCare.
    Any recommendations?
    I only moderately game. (Diablo 3, WoW, nothing too graphics intensive.)

    I don't know if you already bought it or not....but it should be fine. I have the latest iMac 21" with Nvidia GT 750M (1gb) and 'only' 8Gb of RAM but I can run Batman Akham City on High on OS X Mavericks, and Battlefield 3 also on high through bootcamp (Windows 7).
    If you didn't buy yet, and is not a hardcore gamer than go for it. Diablo 3, WoW and games released up until 2011/2012 should run pretty well

  • Mid 2010 Macbook Pro Keeps Restarting due to Kernel Panic. Ideas for how to fix?

    So my Mid 2010 Macbook Pro keeps randomly restarting, and giving me a screen that says something like "your computer restarted due to a problem."
    Looks like it as a kernel panic, but I have no idea what this is.  Seems to be no pattern for when it crashes.  Used to do it maybe once a month and now this is the 5th time in two days.
    Any idea what might be going on? Looked at past threads but nothing seemed to apply. 
    Here's the issue report:

    So my Mid 2010 Macbook Pro keeps randomly restarting, and giving me a screen that says something like "your computer restarted due to a problem."
    Looks like it as a kernel panic, but I have no idea what this is.  Seems to be no pattern for when it crashes.  Used to do it maybe once a month and now this is the 5th time in two days.
    Any idea what might be going on? Looked at past threads but nothing seemed to apply. 
    Here's the issue report:

  • Will Late 2013 iMac boot from Snow Leopard External Drive?

    Hey gang-
    Got a new late-2013 iMac for Christmas (yayyyy!!)
    I plan on running Mavericks for day-to-day use, but there are a few old Power PC apps that I occasionally need to run. Does anyone know if the new iMacs will boot from an external drive running Snow Leopard? I have an external Firewire drive with Snow Leopard on it and I'm wondering if the new iMac will boot from it if needed.
    Thanks!
    Dave

    Thanks gang.   No worries- I keep an older Intel MacBook with Snow Leopard on it and I suppose it will do in a pinch.
    Cheers!

  • USB Audio Problems Late 2013 iMac - Clicking / Popping / Dropouts

    I am having audio clicking and popping issues with a brand new late model 2013 iMac and a USB 2.0 multi-channel audio recording interface.  Here is what I have learned so far:
    Clicking and popping is occurring in both directions - playback and recording.  I am not having any issues with internal audio, so this was easy to verify.
    The same issue appears in many threads in Apple Support Communities and in various recording/pro audio forums, so this seems to be a common issue.
    The issue is independent of the audio interface that is used.  (I am using a brand new Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 that I purchased specifically to use with my new iMac, but the forums report the same issues for a variety of other interfaces and audio devices.)
    Five potential root causes are mentioned in the various forums:
    1)  USB 3.0 compatibility issues - poor backward compatibility or other issues
    2)  Fusion Drive activity - artifacts caused by drive "swapping"
    3)  OS X version - newer versions may be worse than old versions
    4)  App Nap - ?
    5)  Driver issues
    Potential short-term solutions include:
    1)  Change driver - The "Class Compliant Mode" app (that I downloaded from the link on the Focusrite website) improved the issue for me, but clicking and popping occurs every few seconds instead of constantly.
    2)  Exchange the Fusion Drive for a conventional 7200 RMP hard drive - Forums report that this does not fix the issue.
    3)  Install older version of OS - Forums report that this does not fix the issue.
    4)  Disable App Nap - Forums report that this does not fix the issue.
    5)  Belkin Thunderbolt express dock - Forums report that a Thunderbolt hub with USB gives excellent results, but the only one I am aware of is the Belkin one which is ~$300.  (I will not pay $300 to fix thousands of dollars of new equipment that should not need to be fixed!!!)
    6)  Apple Care's advice was an SMC reset (essentially a reboot), which clearly did not work.  The person that I talked to was not aware of this being a known issue.
    I am at a point where I need to decide whether or not to get a refund for this iMac since my primary reason for getting this new computer was recording.  So...can anyone help to answer these questions:
    Has Apple acknowleged this issue?  If so, has Apple committed to fixing this issue via a software upgrade or have they admitted that this is a hardware limitation that is not fixable?
    Has anyone found a free or inexpensive workaround (i.e. not the $300 Belkin dock) that completely elimiates this issue?

    I'm also having audio issues on my new late 2013 iMac via the USB headset.  Audio starts playing fine and then static starts creeping into the audio until it drowns out the sound.  Only way to fix is to unplug the headset and then plug it back into the USB port.
    I've tested the headset on other PCs and my older iMac and the issue doesn't show up.
    I've re-installed Mavericks on the iMac, without nuking my data, but that still doesn't solve the issue.
    I've logged a case with Apple support and they had me run a program which gathered up a bunch of information to send to their engineering team.  No updates yet so far.
    Just one question for those that also have this issue.  Did you restore your data from a Time Machine backup, or is this issue also happening on the Mac that's fresh out of the box?
    I'm wondering if this issue could be caused by restoring data from my Time Machine, but I don't want to go through the hassle of nuking my entier hard drive and having to reinstall everything from scratch just to fix this issue.

  • I just bought a new late 2013 27" iMac base model from the Apple Store.

    Hi, I just recently purchased the new late 2013 27" iMac from the Apple store, base model that is $1999.00. This is my very first iMac and I was wondering if this is a good first time iMac users PC? My wife will be mainly composing music on it. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

    Yes, it's perfect. FWIW, next time you plan to buy a computer ask this question before you purchase it, not after.

  • New 2014 iMac or refurb Late 2013 iMac?

    Finally replacing my old iMac and read some conflicting reports on whether the latest refresh of 27" iMac were better or worse than the Late 2013 iMac. I will be getting the 3.4 with 1TB Fusion Drive. Does it matter or did they improve the latest revision.
    It's not about the price, they are almost the same, it's about which is better.
    Thanks!

    Well, the support pages/tech specs only show the late 2013 27" iMacs - there is none listed for this year. The only 2014 is a 21":

    Compare those specs to the store's listings of 27" and you'll find they're the same, so I'd suggest getting a refurb as you should save some money. My last 3 Mac purchases were all refurbs. Great deals.

  • Windows 8.1 install fails because of a "disk is GPT partition" error on 27" late 2013 iMac

    I've got a brand-new late 2013 27" iMac with a 3TB drive, running Mavericks 10.9.1.
    I'm using Bootcamp Assistant to set up Windows 8.1. BootCamp Assistant creates my BootCamp partition, and Windows begins to install.
    When it asks me where I want to install Windows, I choose Partition 4, the Bootcamp partition. It shows the error message that Windows cannot be installed because the selected disk is of the GPT partititon style.
    I then choose Format, there's a brief pause, and then it shows the same GPT error message.
    I've spent 4 hours trying to set up BootCamp with no luck. Any help would be immensely appreciated.

    Thanks for the idea of booting in EFI mode. After looking around, though, it seems that I read as many "it didn't work/screwed up my drive" complaints as successes. Since I really know so little about it, I'm not that comfortable just trying to muddle my way through it. I'll keep looking into it though.
    Should I gather at this point that the real problem is that BootCamp doesn't work correctly on Fusion Drives, or it's possibly a Mavericks or Windows 8 problem, and people here are just coming up with workarounds until Apple fixes it? Or is everything fine as far as Apple is concerned? I know I had no trouble installing BootCamp on my previous computer, a mid-2010 iMac running Mountain Lion and Windows 7.
    Unfortunately, the Windows 7 I have is an upgrade from XP, and the BootCamp/Mavericks documentation said I couldn't use an upgrade, so I went out and bought Windows 8. Hate spending money on Windows, but especially when I can't use it!
    Any other suggestions to get BootCamp up and running would still be appreciated!
