10.7.4 update causes system lockup

Hello, I have Mac Pro (2006) with ATI Radeon 5770 (Apple Genuine) and 10.7.4 update causes system lockup.
I installed 10.7.4 update via software update and the update works fine.
But, after a couple of minutes, there are artfacts on display and the system locks up except for a mouse cursor or the display goes blank.
Obiously, ATI 5770 is overheating but on Windows 7, I run FurMark for an hour to see if 5770 is broken or not and no problem found.
So I reinstalled 10.7.4 (combo), reset PRAM & SMC. I found out about SMC error https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3940135?tstart=0 and replaceed AppleSMC.kext from 10.7.3 by using KextHelper but no luck.
I did clean install of 10.7.4 and everything seemed okay but the system locked up during the Setup Assistant.
I restroed the entire system (10.7.3) from Time Machine and am out of ideas. Does anybody have a simular problem?
btw, MP is upgraded to 2 quad core x5355 and to the firmware MP2.1 (2007)

Update.
I ran Quartz Debug and disabled Quartz Extreme to see what'll happen.
No more system lock-up nor artifacts!
I reported to Apple and hope they're gonna fiz it soon.

Window Update causing system lockup

I have a thousand questions on This computer. But the immediate question. I hope it will not take to long to get an answer on this one.. Two questions, actually. Cause to start figuring this I really need to know these two things:
1. How do I find out what version Bios I have on this computer, so I can know whether it actually needs the BIOS flashed.
2. I have had to "restore" my son's laptop type b570, twice now after installing the mandatory updates being offered by Microsoft Updates. For Window 7, 64 Bit, home version. Is there a freak issue that I need to know about here?!!

Hi
Welcome To Lenovo Community
We are really sorry to hear about the issue you are facing,
Based from what i read in your post, seems some MS updated is causing system failure
There are various reasons which can cause such issue. Please refer below link for various issue and resolution
http://support.microsoft.com/ph/6527
http://pcsupport.about.com/od/system-security/a/prevent-windows-update-problems.htm
For checking the Bios version of the system you can open system information under Accessories >system tools under system summary you can find the Bios version and date details
You may refer this Link for Bios & Driver Updates
Do give this a try and let us know
Hope This Helps
Cheers!!!

KERNEL Security Update Causing System Havoc

MAY KERNEL PATCH CAUSES SYSTEM HAVOC
We regularly update our patches, including recommended kernel security patches for Solaris 10.
However, two days ago upon attempting to load the weekend Solaris 10 security patch (the latest as
of this writing), the system indicated that the install had failed. After that, it was all downhill and as
of today our main server is completely down.
Being based on a ZFS file system didn't particularly help either as it appears that whatever problem
was generated by the botched init5 installation of the Kernal Security patch got copied to the mirror
disk, because the despite the failed installation the bootarchive was "updated" before shutdown
and there didn't appear to be any way to restore from the mirror.
What few errors I could view before even rebooting failed had to do with PCI and basic boot-time
mounting. Currently, there is not even enough time for any text to appear on screen before the
system reboots again (i.e. a reboot-loop).
It appears there is no choice in a case such as this other than to restore from a zfs snapshot and I
am not even sure that will work with no functioning kernel! I'll try it from fail-safe.
Somehow I feel I am not alone this weekend as a frustrated system administrator. What has been
most frustrating is that this was not an optional patch, but a kernel security patch which most of
us would conscientiously add!
Anybody been here, done this? Is there a "best procedure" in this case?
Thanks for any help you can provide on restoring after a botched kernel update!
Gunnar K. A. Njalsson
The SPACEPOL Corporation

We switched to Windows Server 2008 Enterprise this week, partially as a result of the problem above and not having
a simple and straight-foward solution to recovering backup snapshots.
In my opinion this is a real weakness with ZFS and the Solaris operating system. It should essentially be a no-brainer
that there exist a simple file system-integrated solution that does not require all of the extra calculations, mirrors,
commands and set-ups which are currently part of Solaris and ZFS. These are valuable tools, but in the case I
mentioned above, the major problem was a false sense of security provided by all of the hype about ZFS and
mirrors.
It only took a botched official update to copy the errors to the mirror and thereby loose our data and make
recovery a very intricate process which we did not have time to do. Windows Server provides us with a simple
interface for backing up our data and server on a separate disk at times of our choosing and with a recovery
or restore option that is intuitive and just as simple as backup.
I love Solaris and Sun and share much of the philosophy of UNIX and related tools. However, in a security-focused and
critical production environment such as ours, it's not a matter of my personal likes and dislikes; but a question of
being able to get typical system administration tasks done simply, even if they have to be left to non-computer scientists
at times. Solaris worked well for a year, but when the kernel became corrupted by an update, everything was lost.
That's too much risk!

One of four ipods causes system lockup/freeze

Off and on when my son connects his ipod to charge or load new songs, sometimes it freezes the entire system - iTunes and everything. i cannot move the mouse and keystrokes dont do anything either. I am forced to hold the power button to power down and startup again. His ipod is set to manual and only sync two items (one playlist and calendar) and it is NOT selected to use as a drive. I tried to restore the settings and start over; the problem still reoccurs.
Any ideas? This is more than iTunes lockup - I lose control of the whole system.

If turning up the fan speed seems to help you out then I'd be surprised if your issue wasn't heat-related. Then again, I wasn't able to diagnose my problem either so what do I know?
I know that heat isn't the issue for mine, though. The times that it froze were when the computer was all different temperatures. Also, when running intensive applications it didn't necessarily freeze.
Aaaaaaaaaanyhow, taking it in to the Apple Store today was certainly an experience. I know how they make all of their money now! It really makes me think that if they're able to diagnose the issue then I'm just going to fix it myself. Even though the RAM tested fine for me, the tech seemed to think that it was still a RAM issue. He wanted to keep the computer there so they could run some tests on it. They were going to quote me ~$190 to diagnose it and replace a single stick of RAM if that was the issue.
I mean.. seriously? $190? I can buy 2GB of RAM online that would work with the MBP for about $30. I know how to replace it myself. I told him I was going to replace it and see if that fixed the issue. He said it might be something else and offered a MUCH less costly diagnostic just to keep me from walking out of the store.
Anyhow, he also said that if it wasn't the RAM then more then likely the logic board would need to be replaced. It would cost ~$350 for them to ship it out for a diagnostic and then another ~$1200 for a logic board. Forget that. For ~$1550 I can buy a refurb MacBook Pro at the online Apple Store. It would be newer, faster and have a warranty. I've pretty much come to the conclusion that if it's not the RAM then I'll need to either find a logic board and replace it myself (I've found them on eBay for ~$500) or just get rid of it and get a new laptop. The new ThinkPads are looking pretty nice actually. We'll see. I'll update this thread once I get the final diagnosis.

Security Update causing system crashing??

Hey everyone. I installed the latest Security Update last night, and my computer hasn't been acting right since. After being on for about 20 minutes or so, the screeens go to black, but the computer itself seems to still be on. There doesn't seem to be any power going to the keyboard though because the caps lock button doesn't light up when I push it. It's been going on all day, and I'm hoping maybe somone out there can shed some light on it for me. It'd be much appreciated! Here's the details of the crash....
I'm running 10.8.4 on an early 2008 8 core Mac Pro

That machine check with uncorrected error is almost always a RAM memory problem. Your report does not call out the specific module(s) involved.
Sometimes this information can be found if you look in the About This Mac > (More Info) > Memory system report. like this one:
If modules "drop out" they can generate an error message in the diagnostic pane. Do you have modules in Riser B DIMM 3 & 4 ?? If so, they have dropped out.
If you remove the side door after the failure, sometimes the failed modules will have the Red LED lit up next to them.

Live Update causing system to reboot!

Hey all!
My system spec:
AthlonXP 1900+ not o/c
MSI KT3 UltraARU BIOSv5.7
Radeon 64MB DDR
WinXP pro SP2
My system was absolutely fine before I installed a Connect3D Radeon 9800 pro the other day. It never crashed, it never stopped, it was great!
But...
I put this card in and I start getting loads of problems with the screen scrambling, restarting, games crashing. The only problem which was consistent was every time I ran Live Update 3, the system would restart.
Now I assumed it was the graphics card so I took it out and put in my old Radeon, but Live Update still makes my system restart. I'm sure I've used it before and so now i'm just totally confused. Why would this happen?
Can anybody shed some light on this problem?

hmm it look like computer bent the anger on you =)... anyway there is some solution i can give you, hope it can help you, hmm
might be due to lack of power supply too,
Flash BIOS
1. compare carefully your mobo model no
2. go www.msi.com.tw, global, mainboard section]
3. search for your mainboard EXACTLY the model no.. dun b confused by the additional hardware / functions
3. after u tally that it comfirm match 100% download the online BIOS
4. And start flashing
Queries for flashing, can look on BIOS Flashing on another FORUM.

Live Update Causes System Stop in Win 64

On my K8N Neo 2P system with Win 64, Live Update seems to install ok. But with RC1 version of Win 64, after the required restart, I get an infinite reboot loop as without ever getting to a stable desktop. With RC2, I get a BSOD at the same point. In both cases I can get the system started again by booting to Safe Mode and uninstalling Live Update.
Anyone know a fix?

Quote from: fafner on 16-February-05, 03:56:57
Yup I can but as long as MSI live update is on the system, I get the errors when back in Normal Mode. So if i just set it to diabled, it would serve no function. Better to just uninstall it and look for a permanent fix.
Thanks for your comments.
So even if it's set not to start with windows you still have trouble? I only start it manually by clicking on the desktop icon, does that cuase trouble too?

Help locating system bottleneck which is causing system lockup

Hey
Been using PP CC/2014 for a while now a generally happy, but on some projects (espeically multicam) the whole UI can become terribly sluggish and un-usable. My computer knowledge is ok, but where I really lack is knowing enough about Shared Storage to figure out exactly what our problem is.
Here's my setup:
Mid 2010 Mac Pro
2x 2.4 Quad Core Intel Xeon
26 GB DDR3 Ram
ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024MB
OS drive - SDD
Media located on:
Synology DS1812+
Raid 5
1GiG Ethernet
PP CC 2014 8.1
If I take the mulicam as my example, it is made up of 3 Canon C300's and 1 pure audio layer so 4 camera Mulitcam. The seqeunce also has some GoPro (native) and ProRess 422 (Converted from FS700 DPX). All starts off fine but becomes more sluggish as the project grows and strangly will always be worse at the end of the working day! I understand that my shared storage solution probably isn't quite up to scratch, I don't have the knowledge to work out my bandwidth requirements, to see how much the storage might be underperforming.
My inital thoughts would be that the shared storage is not quick enough as everthing else seems high enough spec. I then moved the media onto the internal drive (standard 7,200 drive) on the hope things would speed up, surprisingly they didn't?
So, I'm after on advice on where my bootleneck could be (maybe graphics card?) and some tips on how to test my storage so I can make the appropriate upgrades if needed.
Thanks in advance
Chris

The hardware forum (found on the sidebar group on the "Overview" page) is probably the better place to ask this. There are MANY similar requests there. Especially useful is the "Tweaker's Page" also found through those links.
An internal RAID 0 of minimum 4 discs is highly recommended, or ... like I've got ... multiple internal discs and may an external or two (eSATA, NOT USB3. as sustained throughput not enough). If you go for multiple discs, breaking things up like os & programs & system cache on system drive, preferably SSD; a cache drive for all the Adobe apps for previews, cache, & cache database (preferably SSD), and perhaps a disc with project files & another with footage. Excellent results though are also obtained with say a 5-disc of 1TB/disc or better RAID 0 ... the RAID simply for sheer read/write speeds. With that setup, most everything BUT the system/program files can be put on it.

System Lockup AFTER installing ExpressCard Update 1.0!!?

hey there, before i installed the expresscard update 1.0, my mbp was running fine. just after that though i'll get random systemwide lockups.
i've noticed this happens only when i'm loading a page from Safari.
Only 3 applications are running. AdiumX, Safari and iTunes.
When I get the "lockup", my cursor will turn into a Spinning Beachball, and i'm unable to access "Force Quit" menu, as well as click on anything else on the screen. music keeps on playing on iTunes though.
further examination of my console.log ges me this

i know the parse error is the last thing that causes the lockup coz i get the "Mac OS X Version..." log entry whenever i boot up.
So the 50million dollar question is: How can I rollback the **** expresscard update?
does anyone have any similar problems?

UPDATE:
i have discovered that a fresh boot, followed by launching ONLY Safari, I would get a lockup WITHOUT FAIL when i'm loading this webpage

can anyone who has installed the update verify if it locks up their system too?
much appreciated

Bad update push is causing system errors

Way to go Apple. Pushing out an update that is broken and now application is broken AND causing system errors (see all other comments). Get you act together and fix this ASAP. Just because we are Windows users, don't punish us.

Java Causing System Freeze / Lockup

Hey guys,
Ok after days of having my system seem to lock up for no reason I think I've tracked down the culprit. It seems that any time the JRE is accessed on my machine it causes a lockup. I've tried the following and each results in a system lockup.
Trying to uninstall using the Control Panel
Trying to verify version using Firefox / Chrome / IE
Trying to reinstall using the offline downloadable
I launch into safe mode and I can verify the version using Firefox / Chrome / IE. So I was thinking maybe some program was preventing it and causing all this so I uninstalled my nod32 antivirus. I shutdown SpySweeper. I disabled my firewall. I then went an uninstalled my graphics driver and turned off every program that was running.
And still it froze when attempting to even verify the current installed version. And any attempts to uninstall fail with a freeze. I also found a program that was supposed to remove old versions but that didn't help me at all.
Any help would be most appreciated guys as I've been banging my head on this for a while now.

You seem to focus very much on Java. But more likely the problem is in your OS, because otherwise reinstalling Java would certainly work. What OS are we talking about here? I see IE so it must be a variant of Windows, but which one?

HT2506 After updating my system to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 I can no longer view videos on Facebook or other sites. The only one I can view videos on is youtube. I have downloaded Adobe Flash player and still no luck. I cannot even open Preview on my computer

After updating my system to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 I can no longer view videos on Facebook or other sites. The only one I can view videos on is youtube. I have downloaded Adobe Flash player and still no luck. I cannot even open Preview on my computer anymore. Any ideas would be helpful thanks

Merely clicking the Preview icon in the Dock doesn't cause it to open anything, unless you had one or more windows open the last time it quit.
If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test.
1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, triple-click the line below to select it:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu. A folder should open. If there is more than one item in the folder with the words "Flash Player" (not "flashplayer") in the name, open the respective Info windows, check the version numbers, and delete all except the latest. You may be prompted for your login password. If you get the same error after doing that, re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
2. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
3. Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
4. In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

We are having the issue on hundreds of systems and I am rolling out the readiness tool mentioned above to prevent other systems from being affected. In the mean time I have stopped deploying MS13-098 and am hoping Microsoft will go ahead and let all
of their customers know about the problem instead of just one country. Hopefully the original bulletin will be updated with this known issue.

PPoj,
Apple has offered replacement or pro-rated refunds in the US as a settlement of a class action lawsuit, not because of pride in their design-centric approach to their products. If you seek a similar replacement/refund program in India, then the odds are pretty good that you’d need a similar legal approach with which to convince Apple to offer a similar program there. If you’re unwilling to wait for such an event, then you can purchase a replacement power cable now, and hope for a pro-rated refund at some point in the future.

OS 10.4.10 Update Causing Audio Popping (AND HUM) Issues:

OS 10.4.10 Update Causing Audio Popping (AND HUM) Issues:
The problem on my Intel Mac mini with external Klipsch speakers (two mid-range/high and a subwoofer) is REAL obvious as the system emits a hum like a Spinal Tap amplifier turned up to #11 when 10.4.10 powers down the audio circuitry
Then, if I play a song in iTunes, it first pops and the hum disappears right before playing.
Quite annoying. I restored the mini from a recent backup to 10.4.9. Problem gone.
I'm glad I test updates on the mini before applying them to my Intel iMac 24. I guess I'll just hide & watch what happens before doing any more updates.
Here's what I sent to Apple tech support:
Guys/Gals (OS X Engineers):
Concerning the Snap, Crackle Pop Audio problem in the 10.4.10 update:
Please. Just do the right thing and fix the audio.
There is no need to power cycle the audio subsystem to save .0005 amps on the laptop line.
And then to make your Mac mini/iMac/other desktop users have to put up with it when using AC power is ridiculous.
Put the audio subsystem back like it was in 10.4.9 and let the laptop battery freaks looking for mini-amp savings get a "work-a-round".
Crikey!

Libby,
Backup is unable to make a restorable by Disk Utility backup. You can restore pieces of the software as outlined in my FAQ about backing up user data:
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
But to be able to restore a backup with Disk Utility, you need a cloning utility to have made the backup.
I suggest starting a new thread here, where someone else could help you out better:
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=752&start=0
First off, you'll get a wider audience who may be able to solve your problem. Secondly, responses to you won't confuse the original poster with solutions that don't apply to them. And thirdly, you'll know for certain whether or not a response applies to you.

ITunes 11.4 update cause issue with AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext

Along with many others iMac users, the iTunes 11.4 update cause a window that informs that the system extension "/System/Library/Extensions/AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used.

Am on Snow Leopard and downloaded and installed the update to ITUNES yesterday - Itunes itself installed okay - but I did get the same system extension cannot be used.
I don't have any ethernet devices - so I checked the System/Library folder and the date on the file Is July 13, 2009.
My IPOD (probably now classic because of age) synced okay through USB port, and everything is working fine. As the update was to allow more devices to sync with ITUNES it may be the error message is not correct one.
Seriously - Apple needs to get out of Silicon valley - the message if correct is for techies - not for users who just want the software to update without problems. Lately Apple is preaching to their own choir.
I did send feedback through Itunes to Apple - -- If you are experiencing crashes after this update make sure you send the crash report to apple explaining that it is happening after this install -- also call or schedule a call with apple support --
