All fine and now kernel panic once a week?

After years of never having seen one, I am getting kernel panics about once a week. They seem to occur when I am online. I am running OS 10.6.8 (yes, I know) and have had no problems. I had been running Norton Antivirus (yes, I now know about that too) without incident for a few years but have now removed it. Otherwise nothing has changed except for whenever the last Apple system update was. I am currently up to date, OS not withstanding.
Below is the log for the last panic if anyone is a kernel whisperer:

    If you mean finding your IP address you have to enter the router's settings via a web browser. and go to the Status page. It will likely be under the heading Internet Port. Then you can Google for:
    who owns XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
    where the x's is the IP address.

  • My Macbook pro OS 10.10.2 suddenly will not communicate with my Cannon MX890 printer.  I reset all printers and now I cannot seem to add a printer by using the Add a printer function.  Ideas?

    My Macbook pro OS 10.10.2 suddenly will not communicate with my Cannon MX890 printer.  I reset all printers and now I cannot seem to add a printer by using the Add a printer function.  Ideas?

    The appearance of the printer in the Default view of the Add printer window relies on a protocol called Bonjour. There have been quite a few users who upgraded to Yosemite only to find that their wifi printer is no longer visible. Until Apple resolves this issue you can add your printer using the LPD protocol. To do so you will need to determine the IP address being used by the MX890. This can be done via the touch panel under Device Settings > Network Settings.
    Once you learn the IP address then on the Mac you can click to add the printer and select the IP icon. Here you can enter the IP address, set the Protocol to Line Printer Deamon and leave the Queue field blank. Then change the name to Canon MX890 and in the Use menu, browse for the Canon MX890 series driver. Then click Add to complete the printer creation.

  • IMovie 6 was working fine and now it won't import.

    I have started importing my vhs home movies and everything was almost fine and now it won't import at all. imovie stops at times. Sometimes when a tape was being imported I wouldn't get audio even with moving the volume bar but the audio was there with playback in imovie. I import a few clips, edit the starts and stops and share them with Quicktime. After I have them saved in Quicktime I copy them to an external hard drive and trash the originals. At times I can save them on the external without first saving them on the main hard drive and sometimes I can rename the clips. All of the problems mentioned above are just annoying ones but now.... I open imovie and select a new project, the imovie screen is light blue and it says that the camera is connected. In just a few seconds the screen turns a darker blue which then changes to the video I want to import with out the audio. When I click on "import" nothing happens.. no clip starts or anything. How do I get imovie working again?

    I did what you said to do.. remove preference and repair permissions.. and imovie is still doing the same thing. I also deleted a preference named com.apple.IMovie.plist.saved. When I started having the import problem earlier I had checked the disk and repaired the permissions.
    After I did what you said and IMovie was still not working I shut down the computer and took out the battery hoping that would work, but that didn't work either. Do you think it will work if somehow I uninstall IMovie and all things connected to it and reinstalled from the install dvd that came with the computer?
    Thanks for your help.

    Hello I recently downloaded an app on my iphone 4s - Remote mouse- so i can control my laptop that is connected to my tv, it used to work fine and now the connection fails, I downloaded another app and the same problem occurs, its not the firewall and both phone and laptop are conected to the same wifi, i also tried to connect it manually with the ip address and still no connection, can you help??

    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Then reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go.(No data loss) Try it again.

    my sons ipod classic was left on all day and now has a red circle with a cross in it and will not work - nothing we do will make it work - any ideas??

    Try to restore the iPod. Here's an article that provides troubleshooting for it.

    If that doesn't work visit an Apple Store and see if they can replace it.

  • Listing order and dates of my photos have all changed and now it is a mess in my photo library! I tried to list them again by date, but it didn't fix the problem. What to do?

    Listing order and dates of my photos have all changed and now it is a mess in my photo library! I tried to list them again by date, but it didn't fix the problem. What to do?

    If your preferences keep getting messed up try this:   make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

    Hello lea,
    this is what those mean:
    Warn me when sites try to install add-ons :
    With [[Customizing Firefox with add-ons|Add-ons]] you can enhance Firefox's experience. However, some add-ons can be malicious so that's why Firefox warns you before installing them by default.
    Block reported attack sites :
    Attack sites are those sites that can install malware on your computer. Normally, Firefox blocks that. The same goes for
    Block reported web forgeries , where Phishing sites are being blocked. See [[How the phishing and malware protection in Firefox works]].
    Also, those information can be found in the [[Options window - Security panel]] KB article.

    Thank you for the answers so far, but I'll make one correction: I said earlier that the Boston Globe website, boston.com, does not have a mobile site, and I would need to visit their regular website on my iPhone. Actually, I just found out that boston.com has a mobile site, so I'd obviously use that instead of the regular site. By doing that, I'd save a ton of data (I think). Does that change your answers?
