Big crash sound sometime since OSX 10.9 and 10.10...

I have sometime a crash sound (sound destroy since 2/3 seconds), and I haven't find how resolve that
I have a macbookpro 2009, core2duo, 8 Go Ram, SSD internal, sound cart external Motu UltraLight MK3 (Firewire connection).
1) Before with OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion, I never have this problem.
2) There is 1 year, I install Maverick and I have sometime (one time on 2 or 3 hour) a little crash sound (silence or crash sound since 2 seconds).
3) There is 6 month, I add 4 Go Ram to have 8 Go Ram.
No change, after that I have the same problem.
4) All Driver are update.
(On internet, I see it's a problem that many people know but without a good solution, apple don't give the solution, it's sad...)
5) I see on internet that Yosemite resolve this problem.
I Install Yosemite 10.10.1 on an external hard disk (USB connection)... and I boot on it
no change :-/
6) I change my external sound card with an RME Fireface UCX (a nice sound card, I like it)
I think at a moment it's better because I haven't had crash sound since 5 day (5 x 5h use it)...
but the 6 day, there is a big crash sound since 3 secondes.
Why ?
At this moment there is : Traktor + Live + TotalMix (RME) + Digicheck (RME)
Too much prg run ?...
But I see that No overload cpu and 3 Go memory free....
Just for information :
Before with Motu Ultralight MK3 the message error (on consol) with crash (1 on 2,3 hours) :
kernel[0]: IOAudioStream[0xffffff8021ab3200]::clipIfNecessary() - Error: attempting to clip to a position more than one buffer ahead of last clip position (da55,e3c)->(da59,123c)
Now with RME UCX the message error (on consol) when I have the crash (just one on 6 days) :
(what is it the "XPC" ? and why this question "Please switch to XPC..." on logfile ?)
who will have an idea to resolve that ?
Thank you very much for your responds
JL

No difference. I closed FFox installed Flash apparently and then went to Adobe - Flash Player where no animation nor indication of what version of Flash I do have installed. Chrome on the other hand displays this information. FFox plugins page shows that Flash is installed and set to always activate.

  • IOS 5.0.1 on 3GS Crashing-Restarting sometimes after taking a photo and verry slow

    Hello,
    My Iphone 3Gs is crashing and restarting sometimes after taking a picture. This is not always but verry often.
    The Iphone is also verry slow since IOS 5 , a big fault from Apple is that they have not put a warning when update a 3GS to IOS 5 that is will be almost unusable.
    When pressing on the small button on top of the iphone , it takes sometimes more than 10 seconds until the phone is locked. I hear the click when it is already in my pocket.
    also the same when ending or stating a call it is so slow that sometime i am calling to somebody else in my list.
    Is there a solution to put it back to the latest 4.3 version ?
    Thanks
    Best regards
    Didier

    I had the same problem with my 3Gs - rebooting every two minutes or so, but only when plugged into the charger.  Eventually, I remembered that I had taken a couple of photos with the phone.
    So, I deleted the photos from the phone and the problem vanished.
    Must be something to do with incompatability with the older camera systems.

  • The headphone jack on my iPod Touch Gen 2 is intermittent. I get sound sometimes out of one channel and sometimes both depending on how I hold the headphone jack.  Is this a costly repair?

    The headphone jack on my iPod Touch is intermittent.  I gat sound out of one channel or both depending on how I hold the jack.   It is making intermittent contact.  Is this a costly repair by Apple?   Can I do this repair myself?

  • Audio sound distorted since 10.6.3 and Pro Apps 2010-01 - bug iTuneshelper

    As of OS X 10.6.3 and Pro Apps Update 2010-01 (FPC 7.0.2) I was encountering in both video sound and music sound tracks odd and somewhat unpredictable audio distortion (wrong pitch and left and right stereo sound running out of sync).
    This problem seemed to pop up around the end of March 2010.
    I have determined that it is related to iTunes 9.0 which has placed in my startup items iTunesHelper which is a startup item, just after AdobeResourcesSynchronizer, iChat and Stickies. I am not certain if it is the order of the startup that introduces the problem or the version of iTunes (which currently is now 9.1).
    If you have this item in your startup, just delete it and perhaps your audio problems will go away.

    Had the same exact problem. Just got off the phone with Apple Support. The tech asked me to create a test administrator account under Accounts in Systems Preferences. Then log out of account you are currently using and log in to the test account. If you are like me then you will find Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat under Applications. Open Adobe Reader and choose to update it. I actually did not have to choose anything as the program began to update both itself and Acrobat Pro automatically. It will take about 10 minutes, depending on speed of internet and computer speed. Once completed, then logout and log back into your normal administrator account. Both programs should now be updated and you can use them. Delete the test administrator account you created. And, good luck on that school work.

  • Unlocked old iPhone 3GS for use with pay as you go sim in the UK on vacation. O2 sim works while ph plugged in.  Unplugged, works short time and crashes.  Sometimes won't even re-boot.  Software on phone up to date as far as 3GS goes.

    I brought an old IPhone 3GS to the UK on vacation for use with sim card.  I had the phone unlocked with approval and instructions from ATT.  Store in the UK recommended O2 pay as you go sim which works as long as the phone remains plugged into the wall.  Once unplugged, it will work for a short time and then always crashes.  Sometimes it will re-boot and crash again and sometimes it will not re-boot at all.  One store told me to sync with itunes which I did on my Mac Book.  I don't know if the sim is defective or if the software of the 3GS is just not compatible with the sim when on the battery.  I have updated the software on the phone as far as it will go.  Any suggestions?  Maybe the phone is too old to use with the latest pay as you go sim cards.  I am disappointed that this phone has not been reliable as a pay as you go and I have had to purchase a UK phone here in order to have a reliable phone.

    There is nothing you can do. You bought an illegally unlocked phone off Ebay. A lot of sellers there will tell you it is unlocked but the first time you try to update the operating system it will put the lock back on to the carrier the phone was originally locked to. Sorry but unless the carrier it was locked to will unlock the phone I am afraid you have a very expensive paper weight now. You should have bought it from a reputable dealer instead of ebay.

  • OSX now crashes every hour. OSX apps like Dock, desktops, launchpad, finder, toolbar, etc become unresponsive, although sometimes non OSX apps (like Chrome, TextMate, etc) remain functioning briefly. No obvious reason or trigger

    OSX now crashes every hour. For no obvious reason or trigger, suddenly OSX apps like Dock, desktops, launchpad, finder, toolbar, etc become unresponsive, although sometimes non OSX apps (like Chrome, TextMate, etc) remain functioning briefly, before the whole thing hangs and needs a hard reboot.
    It is not apparent what I do to provoke the crash -- it happens while I am in seemingly any application, sometimes just reading a page and not taking any actions.
    This started happening very suddenly two days ago. It might have happened around the time I updated ITunes but I'm not sure of this at all. And I never use ITunes or have it open.
    Don't know how to diagnose the problem since nothing is accessible whence it freezes up on me.  I tried software update, but problem continued after. Would appreciate troubleshooting advice. Thanks!

    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    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.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time after  you had the problem. Select the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the entire contents of the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

  • ITunes 10.7 crashes all apps on Mountain Lion including Force Quit. First system wide prob with an apple computer since OSX introduced. Any ideas?

    updated to iTunes 10.7  from app Store last night. After the update, iTunes opens then stalls with the "spinning pizza wheel". Force Quit is unresponsive and will not shut it down. If I then open other applications say Safari for example, the problem migrates over to Safari and it similarly stalls and becomes unresponsive. The only way to solve the problem is to manually shut the computer down. This is the most significant problem I have experienced on an apple computer since OSX was introduced because it impacts on Force Quit which means that you have to shut the whole deal down. There are obvious problems for use of Apple TV and apple store etc. ! I am running mountain lion 10.8.1 on a 27" iMac with 2T Time Capsule connected wirelessly. How do I downgrade iTunes back to 10.6? I had no problems with Mountain Lion or iTunes up to that point.

    this is the exact same problem i've been dealing with for the past 2 days. after i installed itunes 10.7 for my iphone5 it would crash my mbp's lion system wide. i tried every solution i could find on google and i've actually had to reinstall lion & time machine my backups because of it. right now i'm too scared to redownload itunes 10.7. i actually feel like waiting for the "new itunes" that comes out in october.

  • Hard crashes since OSX 10.4.8 system update

    Since the OSX update my computer has been hard crashing on me...meaning it crashes to the point that I can not do anything no matter the program I am using. The finder crashes. My mouse doesn't move and the key board doesn't work. Thus I can't even force quit...and I have to hard reboot/shut down my computer. :/ I looked on line to see if I need a firmware update, but it doesn't look like I do.
    Few other things: I have a Sonnet Tempo-X eSATA 4 + 4 card that supports a 0 RAID with two 500 GB seagate barracuda. I have a very bad feeling this card does not support osx 10.4.8 yet...I'm going to look there next, but I thought I might as well post to you wonderful apple wizards.
    I totally apprecieate any and all information that would help me solve this serious issue. At this point I do not want to use my desktop--in fear of losing it.
    Thank you.

    Hi, hdovesn. Welcome to the Discussions.
    In these "hard crashes" are you seeing the following message?
    If so, that indicates a kernel panic: see my "Resolving Kernel Panics" FAQ. The FAQ includes step-by-step instructions for identifying and resolving some of the most common causes of kernel panics. The FAQ is a roadmap: start at the beginning and work systematically through the end, i.e. the "If all else fails..." section.
    The troubleshooting steps in that FAQ can also be useful in diagnosing "freezes and hangs" as the causes are often similar. I'd characterize some of the behaviors you described as a freeze or hang.
    I concur with your plan to contact Sonnet, specifically to see if they've had similar reports from other users of that card running identical configurations.
    FYI: Before installing software updates in the future, you may wish to consider the advice in my "Installing Software Updates" FAQ. Taking the steps therein before installing an update often helps avert problems and gives you a fallback position in case trouble arises.
    Good luck!

  • Since beginning of July 2012, it is impossible to install any application from Appstore, and impossible to update any applicatiin without having a big crash on my ipodtouch (which is almost three years old)

    Since beginning of july 2012, it is impossible to install any app from Appstore. It is not possible to update any application without having a big crash of the ipod which is almost three years old.

    Try the standard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod
    If you still have the the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    I have no idea whether there is a causal relationship but since moving to Lion and iCloud, my iMac has become so unresponsive that I wind up having to crash and restart most of the time.  This is true regardless of the app I am using at the time.
    The specs of this iMac are:
    iMac 27 inch, late 2009 model with a 3.0 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 Gig 1067 Mhz DDR3, using OSX Lion 10.7.4 (11E53)
    I have Mackeeper installed and according to the scans I have run, everything is fine. No virus, no junk files . . . no problems at all . . .
    Except that for all practical purposes, my computer isn't working. 
    I am nearly totally deaf and live in an isolated, rural area of NW Missouri and this computer is what I mainly rely on to contact friends, relatives and business associtates!
    Any and all suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive may be failing.
    If you have more than ten or so files or folders on your Desktop, move them, temporarily at least, somewhere else in your home folder.
    If iCloud is enabled, disable it.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard, mouse, and monitor, if applicable. Launch the usual set of applications you use when you notice the problem.
    Step 1
    Launch the Activity Monitor 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.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the page that opens.
    Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
    Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
    Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
    Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
    Step 2
    You must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way as above. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
    Post the 50 or so most recent messages in the log — the text, please, not a screenshot.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out before posting.

  • InDesign CS3 crashes when printing in OSX Lion

    I installed OSX Lion today and when I try to print from InDesign or Illustrator CS3 applications crash before the print dialogue window appears. Everything I do as a designer goes through InDesign so I really need to solve this problem!

    Andy, I suspect you did not do it correctly, it should decode to something, even if it is nonsensical.
    Meanwhile, jobbydesign's crash reports are a bit more intelligable, since they have symbols:
    They're both in basically the same place:

    That is, the crash is in CFURLCreateStringWithFileSystemPath(). That's vaguely encouraging, I guess.
    See the Apple CFUrl reference. Of course, it doesn't tell you why it is crashing. Well, and I guess the problem is in CFUrlCopyFileSystemPath(), which has fewer arguments, just a CFURL object and a style. Of course, this probably means that the AGM library is passing it an invalid CFURL.
    I don't know why that would be...I guess you might be better off posting at https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.7_lion.
    I'm really not sure.
    Sorry guys.

  • InDesign CS5 crashes on startup - Mac OSX Lion

    Hi Everyone,
    I've reinstalled InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator CS5 after upgrading to Mac OSX Lion,
    Photoshop and Illustrator work fine but InDesign crashes on startup.
    I've followed a few threads on here, one suggested creating a new adimistrator-level user on my machine - and that works, but I can't figure out what to fix in my regular user to make InDesign work in here again...
    This is the error report I'm getting:
    http://pastebin.com/a2LrMFdw
    Help, anyone?
    Thanks a lot!

    I'm having a similar problem but I haven't been able to get it to work. I created a new administer level user but InDesign still won't open under that user. I've tried the other suggestions as well with no success. Please help!!!! It really doesn't help that I'm in South East Asia traveling with no fast internet to be found.  :\

  • CD/DVD Drive dont work IMac since OSX 10.8.5

    hi, since i had updated my IMac from Osx 10.7 to 10.8 the SuperDrive don´t work anymore!
    if i put a Disc in over half away it get blocked by anything.
    no sound no noise comes from the drive.
    in toastit it say the drive is open.
    what can i do to fix it?
    i tried the standard fixes: reboot, reboot + mouse push, reboot+eject key, Superdrive eject by add to status menu, terminal command: drutil eject.

    older superdrives were Hitachi mfg, new ones are Panasonic.  Since yours is new and panasonic, indications are it wont work thru the enclosure on your NEW macbook, rather as you state on your older Mac.
    until you said it worked fine on the old machine, the logical conclusion is a dirty lens on the laser since it reads CDs fine but most DVD not, since the track is much smaller.
    Considering a new superdrive is only $48 on ebay ,or $78 for a new superdrive, your frustration might be too much, and just grab a new superdrive.
    Your detailed information indicates a firmware incompatibility of the panasonic superdrive thru an enclosure
    This is the new superdrive, made by panasonic as you have in your enclosure:
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/221280580133?lpid=82
    of course thats a lot of trouble buying that AND an enclosure, easier still is just getting a Mac superdrive inside its working enclosure designed for use as such:

  • Pages 5.0 crashes on opening since update

    Anyone else have Pages 5.0 constantly crashing on opening since the update? Tried deleting and reinstalling. Originally, I had two versions on my Mac Mini '11 (running Mavericks) Pages '08 (CD) and Pages '09 (AppStore) which were updated to Pages 5.0. I had to go into TimeMachine and reinstall the Pages '09 because Pages 5.0 is unusable.
    Thanks

    It could be a problem with fonts. open the Font book and validate the fonts. you might have a third party font that doean't agree with Pages 5.0
    Sometimes it helps to resart the computer with Shift key pressed. Press it until you se a bar emergin. It might take a while.
    Log in and the restart again the normal way. test if Pages works now.

  • Boot issue with External HDD since OSX 10.10

    Hi
    Wanted to share my experience and I hope someone can help me here. I have a 2TB USB3.0 LaCie Minimus HDD that worked just fine on OSX 10.9 and even Windows 8.1. However since Yosemite (10.10) every single Mac (MacPro, MacBookPro) that I plug the HDD to will not longer boot-up normally (cold boot) IF the HDD is turned on. Power off the HDD every Mac on 10.10 will boot normally. However reboot and wake-up from sleep work fine.
    To make sure I explained my self correctly.
    Power off your mac on OSX 10.9, have the 2TB USB3.0 LaCie Minimus HDD (powered on) connected to your Mac. then power it on back and no problems.
    Power off your PC with Win 8.1, have the 2TB USB3.0 LaCie Minimus HDD (powered on) connected to your PC. then power it on back and no problems.
    Power off your mac on OSX 10.10, have the 2TB USB3.0 LaCie Minimus HDD (powered on) connected to your Mac. then power it on back and the Mac boot will be stuck until your power off the 2TB USB3.0 LaCie Minimus HDD.
    Also note that Rebbot and wake from sleep work just fine in every situation and OSs. I reseted the PRAM, SMC, and tested the HDD on a Fresh 10.10 install as well as on a 10.10 upgrade and a Old 10.9.X MacBookPro.
    To make sure it was not a partition problem I formatted the drive and removed all partitions (EFI) several times on each OSs... Same result.
    Finally I contacted LaCie and I am waiting for their feedback.
