Aperture is crashing my whole computer when editing

I am a Photographer and so I have many RAW files on my Mac..
I use Aperture to edit, but in the last few days when I am editing a picture (zoomed in, skin smoothing or retouching) Ap will just close, the only warning being the coloured spinning ball.
Last night my whole computer just switched off whilst I was in the middle of editing, and this morning the screen went dark and an instruction came up to turn off the computer by holding the power button, and restart.
I've checked my RAM and there seems to be plenty.
It was just an issue exclusively to Aperture, but now I seem to be experiencing the spinning coloured ball when trying to use Safari.
So something is amiss.
I was wondering if it just may be Aperture, in which case I was going to export all the projects to the desktop and then uninstall and reinstall the software..
If anyone can help it would be much appreciated!
As a photographer I will be lost if I can't edit!
Thanks in advance.

Sounds like a kernel panic. See if anything here helps

Why does my iPhoto freeze the whole computer when editing?

Every time I edit in iPhoto, the whole computer freezes after about a dozen adjustments of any kind. I have to manually shut down and restart as no key commands allow access to any other app or the Finder.

Hi, Terence ~
I'm using iPhoto '11, v. 9.1.5
with ± 5,000 photos in current iPhoto Library
running SnowLeopard, 10.6.8 --
capacity: 750 GB; available 695 GB
on my Mac mini >>>
Model Identifier:          Macmini1,1
Processor Name:          Intel Core Duo
Processor Speed:          1.66 GHz
Number Of Processors:          1
Total Number Of Cores:          2
L2 Cache:          2 MB
Memory:          2 GB
Bus Speed:          667 MHz
Boot ROM Version:          MM11.0055.B08
SMC Version (system):          1.3f4
The freezing has been happening for quite some time, since before I upgraded to Snow Leopard, before I upgraded to iPhoto '11 from iPhoto '09, before I upgraded my mac mini from a solo ore machine to a duo core with much more HD space, etc. I think it started when I first installed iPhoto '09 , but my memory fails me. I have had other events interspersed with this recurring annoyance, hoping that it would go away during one of the upgrades I mentioned. However, it persists. I have wondered about reinstalling iPhoto, but do not know if that means I will lose all my editing changes.
I do not know about any Console messages you refer to, but perhaps I am missing something. How would I find out? I do know that I am exhausted and frustrated by this. When the editing process causes the freezing, I cannot use any of the key escapes, cannot even shut down other than manually. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you for taking an interest in my dilemma.

I have the latest version of Itunes but it freezes my whole computer when it starts up

I have the latest version of Itunes but it freezes my whole computer when it starts up. I have installed/reintalled Itunes but it still stops my whole computer when I start Itunes.

OK, so we rule out LSP then,
Try following steps one at a time and test your itunes:
1. Restart computer, right mouse click iTunes icon and select "Run As Administrator", now try your itunes.
2. If that does not work, check to see if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
Close your iTunes.
Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
Now open itunes and see if it is working?
If that works, to prevent having to do the same process everytime you restart Windows, go to. START button, type in
MSCONFIG
Hit ENTER
Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
Restart Windows.
3. If that fails or you don't see ApsDaemon.exe in the Processes, refer to following article to remove SC files:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2363
4. If that fails, repair or reinstall your Quicktime. START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAMS N FEATURES / hightlight QUICKTIME and click REPAIR.

Using Aperture 3.51 I am having frequent crashes and freez ups when editing Canon raw files?

HI,
I have an IMac with 4 G of Ram and am using Apeture 3.51. When trying to edit CS2 raw files I experience frequent crashes and freez ups of the whole computer. Any suggestions?

You didn't mention any color calibration being done on your monitor. This is an essential part of any color-correct workflow. What are you using to calibrate your monitor (and your printer)?
Print profiles (for soft-proofing as well as printing) are for specific combinations of paper & printer. The nine you have are each, most likely, for a common paper (perhaps mfr'd by Canon) to be used with your printer.
I don't know what you mean when you say "I choose a high standard print option".
Have you read the User Manual chapter on printing?
Printing Your Images
There is also a good appendix on calibration:
Calibrating Your Aperture System

This is my problem:
The newest flash player crashes everytime I open certain web pages like failblog or tinychat which requires a webcam
I'm not sure what is causing it but it's only when i'm on those webpages that it crashes...
I can go on youtube kongregate steam and I can play tons of games the only thing I cant do is go on certain websites that messes with the newest version of flash for some reason...
I can use ANY other version of adobe flash and it won't crash at all but the problem with using the older versions is that I can't use my webcam on certain sites.
Will there be another update release for adobe flash that will fix this problem? The previous version was fine I don't know what was changed but will it get fixed?
And yes I have also been into the error logs but it doesn't show anything and the codes that it does show, people don't know what the hell it means lol just a bunch of binary number like data...I could post that but I doubt it would be of any help it's just a few short lines of numbers on each crash...I have purposely crashed my computer about 2 times to check if error logs popup and to see what is crashing the flash player but nothing changes in the crash log..
So to sum my problems up into a short paragraph....newest flash player crashes my computer when I go on webcam/webchat/certain websites with flash videos on it, also if I right click and try to tamper with the settings it also crashes my computer...I would like to know if there's a possible fix for this or will there be another update released anytime soon?
Please help and thank you for all future responses I will continue to use older versions of flash player till this problem is resolved, also on my newer i-7 620 processor 5850 ati laptop it crashes but rarely although I can use my webcam on msn on that computer but this is one has problems....

Sorry I wasn't able to respond for a while I work two jobs so I   really don't have time for this although I would still like to get this   solved very much.
In the event viewer all it says is that there was an unexpected shut down.
I have checked and updated everything on both computers I tried to   disable hardware acceleration and that still didn't change anything.
Sometimes when I try to just right click on a flash player and change the settings it crashes, if I try to load certain pages it crashes, if I   try to use a webcam chat on a webcam site it crashes. Though I can   still view other people's webcams in chat ex: tinychat I could be in   there chatting away with some friends from across country and nothing   will happen until I click webcam and flash player asks to allow, it will crash if I try to right click anywhere and that little flash settings popup it crashes.
All of this happens when I use the most current version of flash player any other previous version will not crash when doing any of this although I can't use my webcam since the website is running an updated version which is why I would like to get this problem fixed.
The new firefox update didn't help at all it still just freezes. There is no blue screen, no crash error report, no event log. The event viewer just says it was shut down unexpectedly.
I also tried uninstalling all webcam applications unplugging my webcam and that didn't affect it at all. I've done everything that people have been doing on here to solve there problems, I used the search button and tried options from various threads but none work for me.
I can do everything normally that requires flash player like play games, watch videos, and other stuff but it just crashes when I do those certain things as stated above. It's weird that there is no log, no anything just a freeze and I can't do anything to the computer i've tried letting it sit for about 15 minutes but it didn't respond. I used ctrl alt del after a while, alt tab, alt f4, holding down certain keys, holding the power button in for a while and nothing will happen. It just sits frozen untill I unplug it.
Is there anything I can do to get an error log of the crash since event viewer isn't working?

Time machine on Lion crashes the whole system when used with external HD

Hi all,
Anybody got the same problem? I did a Time Machine backup just before I did the upgrade to Lion (using an external USB HDD) after the upgrade (that went well in my opinion) when I ask TM to do another backup it stays on "Preparing" indefenately and ultimately crashes the whole system ( reset with ctrl+cmd+power button) is required otherwhise the system stays non reactive.
Regards,
Iwan

Start by verifying your internal HD, and repair your backups, per #6 in Using Disk Utility.
If that doesn't help, see #D6 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting for a possible way to cancel the backup. If that works, use the widget in #A1 there to display the backup messages from your logs. Locate the backup in question, then copy and post all the messages here.

Aperture 3 freezes the whole computer

Upgrading to AP3 has been for me rather an obvious step. Yesterday I downloaded the trial version. It created a new library. I created a new test project, imported some 50 RAWs and started playing with it.
EVERY TIME I use AP3 during making adjustments, geotagging or processing faces AP3 freezes the whole machine. At some point it displays "Processing...", spins for some time, then the spinning freezes, mouse freezes, the whole machine freezes. I cannot quit AP3, cannot do anything, just have to power down using the power button.
Is this normal for my machine? Is my computer too slow? Am I doing anything wrong?
I am now wondering if I should buy the upgrade at all!
Wondering what your experiences are?
PG

I have found this hint 2 days ago:
http://aperture.maccreate.com/2010/02/15/problems-with-aperture-crashes-use-appz apper/
I followed the procedure. Then installed AP3 again, let it create a new library (this is still the Trial) and imported again +/-50 RAWs.
I have not been able to crash AP or the system so far. Faces enabled, tried geotagging, adjustments, brushes etc.
I have to confess I ordered the upgrade yesterday so I can see if the library upgrade works fine as well.
Try it for yourself,
Tonden

I just updated to the newest Firefox 9.0.1 and now I get pop up ads as a new tab that takes over my web session. Firefox also crashes my whole computer and restarts it. I am running Windows XP Pro.

Pop Ad tabs include ad, when I close it asks if I'm sure I want to leave the page. I say yes and then there is another survey ad that says I may have won something. This whole process requires at least 4 denials before I can get the page to close.
Periodically my computer will freeze and restart when I am using Firefox.

Crash bug in Premiere when editing Marker descriptions and using scroll wheel

So I've noticed a really particular bug:
If I go to edit a Marker description in the Markers panel, and I add some text, then move the scroll wheel of my mouse, the program immediately crashes, with these errors:
"[/caravan/releases/2014.09/PremierePro/UIFramework/Src/HotTimecodeControl.cpp-203]"
"[/caravan/releases/2014.09/PremierePro/UIFramework/Src/InlineEditText.cpp-140]"
Then it has the standard: "Sorry, Premiere has to shut down. It will try to save your project" - But it never does make a recovery.
More details:
This happens when the cursor is still active in the description box. If I've clicked out of the description box, everything works normally.
It only happens in the Markers panel, not in the individual Marker dialog box
It only happens after new text has been typed in or pasted in.
It doesn't happen with the Name box
It happens immediately upon touching the scroll wheel, even if it's just a nudge (in either direction)
It happens in every sequence I've tried it in
Tech specs:
Premiere CC 2014 (version 2014.1)
MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2011), OSX Yosemite 10.10.1, 2.2 GHz clockspeed, 8GB RAM
Wireless Logitech Mouse (the Anywhere MX) (with Logitech wireless keyboard)
Not a single mouse issue before!
Anyone know if there's a patch or a workaround for this? I know it's specific enough of a problem to avoid, but I work with markers a lot and the scroll wheel on this mouse is sensitive, so can get easily nudged and thus instantly muck up all the work I've done since the last save...
Thanks for your help!

Hi Bob,
So I've noticed a really particular bug:
If I go to edit a Marker description in the Markers panel, and I add some text, then move the scroll wheel of my mouse, the program immediately crashes, with these errors:
"[/caravan/releases/2014.09/PremierePro/UIFramework/Src/HotTimecodeControl.cpp-203]"
"[/caravan/releases/2014.09/PremierePro/UIFramework/Src/InlineEditText.cpp-140]"
Then it has the standard: "Sorry, Premiere has to shut down. It will try to save your project" - But it never does make a recovery.
No promises, but this bug has been marked as fixed in the upcoming version of Premiere Pro. Sorry for all the frustration this has introduced.
Anyone know if there's a patch or a workaround for this?
The workaround listed is, "always remember to exit the control by clicking outside it or tabbing to the neighboring box before scrolling."
Hopefully, the upcoming fix will be done to your satisfaction.
Thanks,
Kevin

Facebook on Firefox crashes my whole computer

I've got Windows 7 system and for the past week I haven't been able to open Facebook. It crashes before the page opens. I don't get any error messages because it stops working before this. I have to manually turn the computer off and on again as Ctr Alt Del doesn't work either.

Does it have any effect if you disable plugins like Java and Flash?

Skype freezes whole computer when..

When I'm in skype and playing world of warcraft, my computer is fine.
When I'm in a skype CALL and playing wow, my computer freezes many times ranging from 5-20 seconds.
If I'm on skype, in a skype call playing any other game besides WOW my computer does perfectly fine.
If I'm on any other voice communication program besides skype and playing wow then my computer does just fine.
But only when i'm in a skype CALL and playing wow at the same time my wow freezes, my skype freezes, my audio whatever may be playing at the time freezes and stops continueing to play.
Any help would be nice!

First update your Windows 7 installation to the latest Service Pack 1 (SP1) and make sure that you have the latest driver updates available too. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/install-windows-7-service-pack-1 Also, uninstall the virtual video capture devices. Video Capture Sources:
ManyCam Virtual Webcam,0x00200000,1,2,ksproxy.ax,6.01.7600.16385
AV WebCam Capture,0x00200000,0,2,ksproxy.ax,6.01.7600.16385 Your HD Webcam C270 webcam is not even shown as a valid video source in the diagnostics file. Only the microphone is detected.

Why Safari crashes the whole computer once in while?

Safari crashes without an aparent reason and it crashes all the system at the same time. And it's also slower than other browsers.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
In the Console window, look under the heading DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION on the left for crash or panic reports. If you don't see that heading, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
A crash report has a name that begins with the name of the crashed process and ends in ".crash". It may be under either of the two subcategories, "System" and "User." A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic".
Select the most recent of each and post the entire contents — the text, please, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post any other kind of diagnostic report, such as a hang log — they're very long and not helpful.

Crash the whole PC when calling

Whenever I tried to call out, the skype (both desktop and app version) will crash my computer. I cannot move the mouse cannot even open the task manager to end the process. The only thing I can do is to hard restart my PC.
I have updated my audio driver to the latest version as well as the skype version.

Please, run the DirectX diagnostics tool.
Go to Windows Start and in the Run box type dxdiag.exe and press the OK button. This will start the DirectX diagnostics program. Run this diagnostics and save the results to a file. Please, attach this file to your post.
Be aware that you will have to zip this file before attaching it here.
