10.6.5 Update causing QT apps to crash

I think the 10.6.5 update is causing my Nokia QT apps to crash with the following message:
Exception Type: EXCBADACCESS (SIGSEGV)
Exception Codes: KERNINVALIDADDRESS at 0x0000000000000000
Crashed Thread: 0 Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread
plus a long list of other info. I did a file permissions repair, a disk repair, and reinstalled the 10.6.5 update manually, but the problem is still not fixed. Anybody have any ideas?

Can't help with the CUPS issue, since it's not occurring here. If you want to report this issue to Apple's engineering, send a bug report or an enhancement request via its Bug Reporter system. To do this, join the Mac Developer Program—it's free and available for all Mac users and gets you a look at some development software. Since you already have an Apple username/ID, use that. Once a member, go to Apple BugReporter and file your bug report or enhancement request. The nice thing with this procedure is that you get a response and a follow-up number; thus, starting a dialog with engineering.
I will register for the developer program tomorrow. Do you know someone who knows about CUPS?, it might be helpful to sort this problem out. Should I take the sledge hammer approach and do a clean reinstall for OSX? Also there's a chance that this problem might be related to Apple portables only, since the other user is having the same issue that I do in a MacBook Pro as well but his MacBook is the 17" inch one but still there might be one common denominator here.
I really hope this thread gets seen by more users in this forum, to see if more information surfaces about this problem.
Anyways, thank you for your assistance.

  • Printing since updates causes all apps to crash

    Since the last round of updates from Apple, including the EFi firmware update, I am unable to print at all.
    I have two printers, neither of which will print, I dont even get the print box come up before the applications "Unexpectedly quit".
    I am using an Epson R1800 printer and a HP Laserjet 1018, the latter of which I know doesn't work with OSX natively but using a 3rd party driver always has.
    I have tried running the Disk Utility to repair permissions, and also run the reset printer option, followed by a reboot and then added the printers again. Still no joy. I have also tried these steps but only added one printer at a time and still the apps crash.
    Has anyone got any ideas?
    Thanks

  • IOS4 update causes iPod app to crash

    The iPod application crashes when I try to start it.

    I've had ios4.0 for awhile now and this never happened. Last night I downloaded a new song straight to my iphone (first one straight to my phone since the update) and now my ipod does what you're all saying it does.
    My problem is I won't be able to get to my itunes laptop for 10 days. Will this still work if I download itunes to my work laptop and then just plug it into that? Or will this require a full sync? I don't want to sync my phone to my work laptop.
    Also, if I did do that, would it be easy to sync it back to my home laptop and erase everything off my work laptop?

  • RH8 causing other apps to crash?

    Hello -
    I have a colleague (working in another office, so I can't really see this problem first hand) who is trying to install RH8 on a Win7/32 machine (new install, not an upgrade). A member of her IT dept is performing the install.
    After the installation of the app and patches is finished, RH seems to work more or less normally (she's new to RH, so her sense of "normal" is rather limited at this stage).  The problem is that other applications lock up and crash (she mentioned MS Office apps in particular, but that could be because those are the ones she tends to use the most).
    After un-installing RH, the other apps no longer crash.
    I've recommended re-installing but skipping the "RoboHelp for Word" piece, but I can't think of anything else.
    I'm just wondering if anyone else has seen a similar situation? I've found other threads that deal with RH crashing or the RH install failing, but I couldn't find any in which RH caused other apps to crash.
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Hmm...I posted a reply via email, but it isn't showing up, so I'm pasting it in.
    Hi, Rick -
    Thanks for the suggestions. Like some of the other threads I've found, these seem to deal mainly with RH crashes rather than other apps. But your first link possibly has some overlap as the menu issue it describes also pops up in a thread I found:
    "RoboHelp 8 crashes on Windows 7"
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/2955493#2955493
    This thread includes a scenario in which Outlook and other apps are failing. Additionally, some users were having RH crashes related to the menu bug. Some users found relief by uninstalling source control, others did not. Finally, An Adobe employee posted a fix that corrects issues related to Oleacc.dll which helped some users.
    To be thorough, I'll mention that the problems are occurring on a laptop (another thread traced RH crashes to a BioMetric service running on their laptop). And my colleague has the FoxIt PDF utility installed (I don't think this should be the issue here, but perhaps worth a mention.)
    I'm going to suggest that they try:
    1a. Check the registry to ensure traces of the previous RH install are gone.
    1b. Reinstall but omit source control and RH for Word (I think you can skip these during install?  I'm no longer allowed to to perform my own installs, so I'm less familiar with the process than I once was.)
    2. Ensure patches are installed (version should be 8.02.208)
    3. If that doesn't work, try the Oleacc.dll fix.
    4. If that doesn't work, try another Win7/32 machine (preferably non-laptop).
    5. If all is well on the other machine, I guess it is time to start looking at which non-essential services might be causing a conflict.
    Regards,
    Dave

  • Importing photos to my ipad 2 on iOS 4.3.2 using camera connection kit causes photo app to crash

    Importing photos to my ipad 2 on iOS 4.3.2 using camera connection kit causes photo app to crash. Tried importing photo from an iPhone 4/ Panasonic DMC-FX50 via USB and SD card but without success. However, importing video from a Flip Mino HD is ok. Can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong

    Have you tried a reset by holding the power and home buttons for ten seconds until the apple appears?
    Since it's multiple different import devices not working with the CCK, it appears to be on the iPad side...
    If the reset doesn't help, try a restore from within iTunes on the computer.

  • Restrictions tab causes settings app to crash

    I'm using iphone 4 GSM IOS 7.0.4. everytime try to enter Restrictions section in Settings app, It crashes the settings app completely. please help ASAP.
    Thanks in advance.

    Unfortunately Stage3D recording does use up a lot of memory, because it's sending every single mesh and texture over wifi to Scout. If your game has a lot of 3D resources then this could cause it to run out of memory - in this case, it's not AIR that's crashing, but the OS is killing it because of it using too much memory.
    My suggestion would be to do Stage3D recording when running your content on desktop (e.g. in a simulator), since you won't have these memory constraints. If you're deep-diving into rendering, then you should be able to solve your problems on the desktop, since the rendering is the same. Profiling on device is best for looking into performance and memory issues, since you absolutely have to run it on the target platform in order to meaningfully see what's going on.

  • IOS4 update causes iPod app (and Soundhound) to crash

    I've updated my 3GS to iOS4. No errors or warnings. All applications work fine and all data (contacts, calendar, app specific etc) are ok except....
    Whenever I start the iPod app, it runs for about 3 seconds and crashes back to the home screen. I can see album and artist lists I can even select them if I'm fast enough but within 3 seconds, gone. Soundhound crashes whenever I try to access the library. The only thing I've done since updating the phone is to download two podcasts from iTunes on the phone.
    Any ideas/suggestions, much appreciated.

    I'm glad I searched this thread before I was about to post a new thread. Anyways I had updated from 3.1.3 to ios4 earlier this morning with no errors. I have been listening to music just fine. All of the sudden the music stopped right in the middle, and the app closed it on me. Tried to go back then it would crash 3 seconds after I try to opening it. I tried the home + sleep reset and that did not work.
    So I guess re-syncing it to the itunes would fix the problem as I have read this thread so I am hoping that it would if not then I don't know.

  • Why is Adobe Creative Cloud causing Cocktail.app to crash?

    Chasing error messages, I found that while ACC was active, the Scheduler in Cocktail 7.1 fails. When I quit ACC, it works. When I restart ACC, Scheduler fails. It's first log message when failing is: "Could not get path to main bundle."
    This collision has been occuring since I updated my OS to Mavericks, 10.9.1. That required an update to the Mavericks' version of Cocktail. By way of background, I'm on an "Early 2008" Mac Pro with 2 x 3 GHz quad-core Intel Xeon processor, 8 GB RAM and oodles of storage, four internal drives with over 3 GB total internal storage.
    I have reported this behavior to Tech Support at Maintain which makes Cocktail. I will also report to Apple.
    However, since going to Mavericks, I have also been intermittently encountering issues with ACC's interaction with Retrospect, an industrial-strength back up utility I've used for years. Because ACC is writing to a log virtually continuously (i.e. nearly every minute), Retrospect finds mismatches in the ACC.log when it validates its backup. This has been happening in about 80% of the nightly backups since Mavericks was installed in mid-December.
    I will begin manually disabling ACC whenever I'm not using one of the Creative Cloud applications. As I consider myself a heavy user of LR 5 CC, PS CC, and Bridge CC, this is an extra chore I believe I should not be required to perform. ACC should run when it is needed and only then. It should not be causing mischief at other times. 
    ACC is the new kid on the block. I've been using scripts in both Cocktail and Retrospect for over five years with solid success.
    I would have reported this as a bug if I could locate a place accepting such a report.

    Are you getting any error message?
    Are you using Windows computer or Mac?

  • DidSelectRowAtIndexPath causes my app to crash

    Hi,
    I'm just learning Cocoa. I've implemented a tab bar, and the first view (a UIViewController) contains a table view. I've implemented a separate class as the tableview datasource and delegate. Everything works fine, until I add either didSelectRowAtIndexPath or accessoryButtonTappedForRowWithIndexPath. Even if these methods have absolutely no code in them, just adding their implementation to my delegate creates a problem: when I click on a table row or on the disclosure button, my app breaks, and when I "step into" the code, it crashes with a “EXCBADACCESS”. I do not have any symbolic breakpoints defined.
    Here's the error I see in gdb:

    I currently suspect one of two things, but honestly, have no idea what is causing the problem. I suspect that either, because I'm not using a Navigation controller, it's looking for a stack, but not finding one. Or I haven't hooked something up right in IB.
    As I mentioned, the table is working fine without these method implementations - that is, it is displaying some simple string data and without those method implementations, I can click on a table row and of course, nothing happens, but it doesn't crash.
    Thanks so much in advance for any help.

    I've made a lot of progress since I last posted!
    I can see that!!
    I have set the View Controllers property (using IB) to the Navigation Controller (topicsTableNavController in the code below) for the first tab.
    Neither your code nor your IB conections should set the navigationController property of a view controller. That property is set by the nav controller when the vc is pushed onto its stack. Your code can then use the property to get the nc's address when it wants to push another vc onto the stack.
    Then, I have set the view (through IB) of the Navigation Controller to the Table View Controller.
    Similarly, you should normally consider nc.view to be read only. The nc's view content is a composite of the nav bar and the top vc's view. It's managed by the nc, so neither your code nor your IB connections should change nc.view.
    I think you've simply made a wrong (and very common!) assumption about the relationship between a nav controller and the view controllers it manages: The nc's view is the one that needs to be added to the hierarchy (the tab view in this case). The vc's view is then added to the nc's view, not the other way around. So when we visualize the relationship, the nav controller is always the parent of the view controllers that are pushed on and popped from its stack.
    Since you defined your controllers and their connections in IB, the solution you're looking for is in the xib file, not your code. It turns out that IB already knows the correct structure, so it's deceptively easy to build it. That can make it harder to learn what's going on, so you're lucky you managed to scramble the stucture this time, else you might have never learned it.
    Try building a new test bed in IB as follows:
    1) File->New Project->iPhone OS->Application->Tab Bar Application;
    2) Open MainWindow.xib in IB and bring up the window named MainWindow.xib (Window->Document);
    3) Switch View Mode (upper left corner) to the center position (2 columns with small-icon tree view to the left);
    4) Expand Tab Bar Controller and select (not expand) the first View Controller so it's highlighted in blue;
    5) Delete the first View Controller by pressing the Delete key or Edit->Delete while that controller is highlighted;
    6) Drag a Navigation Controller to the MainWindow.xib tree (Tools->Library->Objects->Controllers);
    7) Position the nav controller over the tab bar controller icon until the tbc is shaded and outlined;
    8) Drop the nc so that the tbc becomes its parent--i.e. the nc takes the place of the deleted vc;
    9) Expand the nc and expand its child root controller to see the structure;
    10) Select the root vc, open the Attributes panel (Tools->Attributes Inspector) and enter a title for the root vc;
    11) If you want to define the root vc's view in it's own xib, enter a name for the new xib;
    12) else you can now drag a view (e.g. UIView or UITableView from the library onto the root vc's icon;
    13) If you want the root vc to be a UITableViewController. go back to step 10 and replace the root UIViewController;
    14) After you have the structure you want, right click on each icon to see the connections IB has already made.
    Btw, if you decide to make a separate xib in step 11, make sure you set the controller's class id in both MainWindow.xib and the new xib. I.e. both the icon that creates the controller and its proxy need to have the same class (else you get a very common crash).
    I'm counting on you to let me know if the above is as clear as mud, ok? I've recently tried to help in two other threads that involved the same misunderstanding about nav controllers. Start reading each of these threads at the quoted paragraph:
    The reason your current code isn't producing the transition you expect is that the tab bar has attached the table controller's view to the hierarchy (i.e. using addSubview) instead of the nav controller's view. You want the nav controller's view because that's the one which will change when you push a new controller. [http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9592005&#9592005];
    It's the nav controller's view that contains the content view, not the other way around. This point is worth taking a moment to see, and it seems to be commonly misunderstood. [http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9607946#9607946].

  • When using Safari on my IPhone 4S videos in Tumblr all seem to autoplay causing the app to crash if there is a page with a lot of videos.

    This started one day out of the blue before I updated to ios 8.0.  The videos used to pull up with the "play" arrow, and you would click on it to play.  Then, one day they all seemed to all load and start playing by themselves.  If it is a page with a lot of videos, I get an error that says "a problem occured with this page so it was reloaded".  It then reloads over and over and over, then the app shuts down and goes back to the home screen.
    I never changed any settings or anything.  It just changed one day.  I updated to ios 8.1 thinking this might fix it, but it didn't.  I even did a restore, and still nothing.
    Any ideas?

    I'm pretty sure this is a new feature of their site - videos autoplay on modern browsers now.  Download the Google Chrome app and see if the issue persists. My guess is it will and there's nothing you can do. It's not an issue with your phone.

  • 10.6.8 update causes bluetooth to repeatedly "crash" while using headphones

    I'm having severe problems with bluetooth "crashing" during headphone use, causing bluetooth to become "bluetooth not available".
    This problem is very frustrating, causing me to stop using my Sony DR-BT101 headphones with my iMac. I've tried resetting the PRAM and the SMC, but the problem still persists. In fact, last night, after resetting the SMC for what seems to be the millionth time, my bluetooth became "unavailable" about 10 minutes into using my Sony headphones, or 15 minutes from the SMC reset. But It's not all bluetooth activity that causes this problem. I use my Magic Trackpad all day without any hiccups. It's only when I use the bluetooth headphones that bluetooth crashes.
    But I use the term "crash" loosly, since I can't find any problems identified in the console, and the bluetooth diagnostic utility doesn't work when the bluetooth controller becomes unavailable. I'll be watching a movie with my Sony headphones when all of a sudden silence, followed by a "lost connection" message from the Magic Trackpad. I check the bluetooth icon in the menu bar, and it's "Bluetooth not available" all over again.
    Does anyone have an insight as to some solution to this problem? I was hoping that the last update to 10.6.8 (HDMI) might've fixed the bluetooth problem, but no luck.
    Thanks.

    Apple might fix the problem with SL; they did release the 10.6.8 Supplemental Update, which fixed an HDMI problem. So we might get a fix.
    Don't know if this problem affects Lion. I haven't read much about it, since I'm not upgrading for another few months.

  • Acrobat Reader 11.0.07 update causes LabVIEW application to crash

    Hi All,
    I wrote an application that uses the Adobe ActiveX element to display a PDF.
    This code used to work fine, but when I updated my acrobat reader from 11.0.06 to 11.0.07 it causes the application to start very briefly displaying the icon in the taskbar but then close (without an error or warning notification).
    When downgrading to 10.0.06 the problem was solved.
    Perhaps this can be of help for others who are experiencing problems with LabVIEW / Acrobat Reader.
    Chris

    This is a known problem that everybody is yelling about and the solution is to not upgrade to 11.0.07. You don't have to all the way back to V10. 11.0.06 works fine. Just remember to configure Acrobat to not automatically update itself.
