Bootcamp overheating/freezing and quitting programs.

I'm having a constant issue with my MacBook Pro 13" intel core 2 duo processor blah blah blah. I have partitioned the HDD to put bootcamp on it cause, let's face it, compared to the other bad excuses of computers (pc's) I have owned and played on, this computer is superior. Well I take that back. I seem to be having an overheating issue. At least I think it is. 90+c. I've read on other sites that this is normal (WHAT??? That's extremely hot so to say that's normal is a falacy) and that I should expect this (seriously?). Anyway all complaining aside, my problem lies with the fact that apps freeze and inevitably quit in bootcamp. I'm not sure why this is considering the ones that do it mostly are not graphic intense nor do they use much CPU.
I'm not even sure if this is hardware related or that the heat is really doing something to it (which in my case I would definitely believe the heat is affecting it a lot more than anything else but what do I know? 90c isn't hot at all for a machine /sarcasm). I would blame the apps except its more than one which is too coincidental. I don't even get any error reports or anything. They just lag out, freeze and quit. No ifs ands or buts. The worst part is I update my drivers and my graphics driver BSOD's everytime I run a flash (YouTube vids are flash right?) vid. I have Windows set in basic mode and very minimal things running (updater and obviously bootcamp but that's usually it) when I'm using these apps. Games are what is doing it it seems. I set graphics low to see if that fixes it. Nope.
I guess what I want to know is, after all this skimming through many pages and not finding any answers, could someone please help me? If not on the crashing then at least on the drivers and heat issue. I really mean it when I say 90c is not a safe temp even if they say it is. With my technical experience (I'm no pro but I know a thing or two) a normal temp when running simple apps should be around 56c max.
Thank you in advance for any helpful information you might have. I hope to be enlightened.

ICal freezing and quitting because of Google integration?

Hi.
I recently added Google Calendar to my iCal by the normal inputting of my information for my Google account. But now, when I open my iCal, I get this error message:
"The server responded with an error.
The server did not recognize your user name or password for account “GoogleMail.” Make sure you enter them correctly."
I click on OK, then it waits a split second before throwing up the same message, to which I click OK again. After that it freezes and quits. It does this every time. It also means my iPhone has lost all the events that were on the Google Calendar when it syncs with my iCal. How can I get iCal working again?
Any help would be gratefully received!
Thanks.

by 'reset' - do you mean remove the account and add it again?
I've tried doing a few things but still getting the same error.
It connects to the server and creates the account and then comes back with the error message:
"The server did not recognize your user name or password for account “***@gmail.com.” Make sure you enter them correctly."

Programs freezing and quitting when certain messages pop up

I have been having this problem a lot recently. Garageband is one of the worst. For example, I will try to start a new project. The usual little pop-up appears asking if I want to Save, not save, or cancel, nothing unusual about this. Before i can even answer, though, the program freezes then quits. This happens in many programs such as I-tunes, garageband, Text edit, Photoshop... I can't even name them all. Is it possible i accidentally deleted a system file that is causing this problem.

This is the crash log for a program called live. I was thrilled to learn it had the same problem.......

OSX Tiger Freezing and Quiting on me

Hello...
My operating system is acting a bit strange. It temporarily is freezing up on me when I minimize a window or enlarge windows. It is also having difficulty with my mighty mouse's scroll button. When I am using AIM and I scroll using the top scroll button, it seems to freeze up AIM and quit it. The main issue I'm having and is concerning me a great deal is that every so often the whole operating system freezes and the computer tower starts up it's fans very loud and a red light comes on inside the case. I have to manually shut down the computer and restart it. When the desktop reappears, it has a window saying that OSX encountered a problem and had to be shut down... or something to that effect. I have suspected that Firefox is the main problem when this happens.... Can another explain these problems to me? Any suggestions on how to fix them? Thank you

What model Mac do you have? Your settings indicate a G-5 Dual Core. There is not such computer. If it is a G-5 I suspect you have an overheating problem. that is the only thing I know of that would cause the red light to come on inside the case.
Have you checked to make sure all the cooling vents are free of dust and debris? HAve you moved the computer recently? Have you changed the air flow to it by adding some new furniture or anything?

Export an InDesign file to PDF and InDesign freezes and quits

I keep trying to export an InDesign file to PDF and InDesign keeps freezing up and quitting. This is the first time it's done this, I have never had a problem before.I recently added Suitcase Fusion to my computer and wondered if this was the cause, or if there is something else wrong.

Try disabling the suitcase plugin and see if it continues (you'd probably have other problems, too, though, if it's the culprit). Often it's a bit of bad text or an image. See Adobe Community: File Crashing on Output - printing/PDF/other for lots of troubleshooting tips.

ICal freezes and quits

Recently, every time I open iCal it will just freeze and say that it unexpectedly quit and it will give me the three options (report, ignore and relaunch). I tried restarting but I am getting the same problem.
Any resolutions?

I am having the same problem. Running Tiger (10.4.11, latest updates, etc.) on a PowerBook. Can not open iCal now. It works when I open it by logging in as another user, so I know that there's a working copy of iCal on my computer. How do I open it and fix the problem?
I have spent a lot of time fiddling with this. Everything went wrong around the time of the switch from dotMac to MobileMe.
Any suggestions?

Hello, J Appleseed.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You can try an uninstall and reinstall of iTunes to see if that resolves the issue. Your iTunes library will not be deleted by doing this. However, this issue could be a result of multiple issues so an uninstall/reinstall may not resolve this. Below, I have included the best articles that will help you isolate and possibly correct this issue. Process each step and test the results after each step processed.

DVD Player freezes and quits midway through movie

Hello,
I tried to find a topic like this already in existence, but I had no luck, so I decided to post one of my own. Today my DVD Player has been acting up. I rented a couple of DVDs from Blockbuster and tried to watch them on my computer. The one I watched yesterday worked fine. Today, however, the player froze up and went to spinning beach ball of death about halfway through the movie. It suggested I check the DVD for scratches, and I did, but it's fine. Just in case, though, I tried to put in another movie. This time, the DVD got through the previews and to the menu before doing the same thing. Can somebody give me an idea as to what is going on and how I can fix it? Is my computer just 'tired' from being on all day?

Yup same problem here, started after I upgraded to 10.6.4 in late June, when my MacBook Pro was less than 2 months old.
Apple replaced the optical drive, same problem.
The fix can be easy such as restarting the DVD player or ejecting the disc and putting it back in, to rebooting the laptop. When it won't read the disc at all I have to do an optical drive reset, which always fixes the problem, for awhile anyway.
I've struggled with trying to duplicate the problem- I've been in to the genius bar four times now and they say they can't do anything more until I can duplicate it. I've done an archive install, they suggest a clean install which I'm reluctant to do at this point.
It seems to be related to-
1) how long the computer has been running since the last reboot- a day of surfing increases chances of error
2) power- if I go on battery power for awhile I'll almost always get a quits unexpectedly. That seems to be the start of a downward slide, where eventually it won't read a disc at all. It's also telling that an optical drive reset, which resets the power to the optical drive, always fixes the problem.
Turns out the power cord was slowly going south, which multiplied the number of dvd errors. Apple gave me a new power cord late August and the dvd errors are less frequent, tho still 2-3x/week.
The quits unexpectedly errors are usually SIGSEGV and SIGBUS.

TS1702 Anyone else's iPad 2 freezing and quitting since upgrading to iOS 6?

Help? Anyone else's iPad wiggling out since the iOS upgrade?

Seems like my iPad 2 started having problems after upgrading to iOS 6.1.2. Mainly my home button isn't working all the time and sometimes the touch screen seems unresponsive or blacks out.

Desktop background options pane freezes and quits

The title is pretty self-explanatory: I have an early 2009 iMac, purchased in May, and I've only started having problems in the last 24 hours, when I go to change desktop backgrounds. The pane appears, and is immediately unresponsive, and crashes less than a minute later. This has now happened a total of 10 times in a row.
A similar discussion post from another user was solved when someone recommended installing the iLife Support 9.0.3 patch. I installed the patch and restarted, and the problem persists.
This seems to be a common issue. Thanks for any help—for now I guess I'll just put up with my current background.

Never mind, it seems after some sputtering and additional crashes, the problem resolved itself—presumably because of the iLife 9.0.3 patch I installed.

Premiere Pro 2014 is crashing and freezing and I have to use force quit to get it to shut down.

Premiere Pro 2014 is crashing every day. i am running Premiere Pro 2014 on a 2013 imac with 3.4 GHz Intel Core i5 with 16 GB RAM. Playback on premiere continually freezes and the program crashes. Or the playback will start to freeze and then I save and close the project file/program, but the program will not close and I have to force quit. This is extremely frustrating. Premiere Pro CC was super stable and I rarely if ever had a problem. I have changed my permissions to give myself read/write. I have created a new project file in 2014 and then imported all my sequences from my updated project file but none of these strategies have worked. I am considering creating a new project file and going back to working solely in CC because I am on a deadline and troubleshooting this issue is taking up so much time.

I have had to force quit PP CC four times today. The fourth was when it crashed while trying to reopen it. I have had exactly the same problems as described above. I have no solutions to offer. I will go through a week of constant Premiere Pro bugs and poor performance then experience a period that seems too good to be true only to end up having a day like today. I can't believe that they call this a professional editing suite. It just wastes so much of my time pissing around trying to fix things and managing all the extra render and preview files it makes each time I have to save a new copy of a project which usually results in renaming it. It gets confusing after a while. Really not happy with this and have begun to learn Avid so as soon as this project is done, PP will be history.

My iTunes freezes and crashes whenever I try to burn a CD

It hits about a quarter way through the progress bar for preparing the playlist to be burned, and then iTunes freezes and quits every single time. Help?

Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". Uncheck the boxes other than DVD/CD tests, as per the following screenshot:
... and click "Next".
When you get through to the final screen:
... click the "Copy to Clipboard" button and paste the diagnostics into a reply here.

Programs freezing and Force Quit won't help.

I guess my problems started with the time freezing in the menu bar. Though that doesn't seem to be a problem now, it could just be because I have to keep restarting my computer.
Here's the current problem:
Last Sunday programs would randomly freeze and the only way to get them going again would be to force power down the computer, which I have to do by shutting the power to the power strip that also powers my external HD. Why, you ask? Because if I do it just by holding the power button the external HD won't mount. Have to shut them both down.
As of Sunday I had all software up to date, but after coming to the boards and seeing others having problems after the last updates I decided to go back to a previous version.
After restoring from Time Machine to a date before the I updated to 10.5.2 I discovered my external drive had been corrupted.
I then had to start over and restore from the very first back up made in Dec. That worked and I got my computer back BUT then had to save what I could from the Time Machine back ups between then and now then erase the drive.
When I did I used the "zero out" option. Got that back up and running but I'm still having issues with not being abled to force quit and now think this week was a waste of time because the problem wasn't fixed with wiping both the internal and external HD's.
Obviously, while I know Macs better than Windows machines I don't know all the technical stuff that needs to be done with them.
So my current headache is that I'm trying to restore my iTunes library (should be noted I'm using an external HD to store everything due to the size of the library).
If I don't get to it fast enough to put in the next back up disc, iTunes will freeze.
If it freezes, I can try to force quit but all that does is close the window, not the program and gives me the option to report to Apple.
I then have to shut down the computer using the power strip as previously stated.
Once everything is back up, iTunes will sometimes freeze when I try to open it.
I'm also having trouble with Safari freezing on me sometimes. I don't know about any other programs because right now I'm mostly just focused on iTunes.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this, whether it's hard ware or software related? Any solutions I might try?

Well this problem is also happening to me, and I'm using a Lacie Big Disk Extreme 500Gb, never had any problems before but after the update 10.5.2 problem reveals all the time. After disconnecting the disk the problem is solved, but this mustn't be normal.
Seems to be a bug in 10.5.2 as I can't imagine that Lacie disks and Maxtor disks won't be recognized anymore...
So to reply.. this case isn't solved yet..

Firefox freezes and a blank drop down box shows up, then I have to force quit the program

Firefox will randomly freeze and a white blank box will drop down. I have to force quit firefox and restart it, then it usually works fine without errors for a while. This seems to happen mostly when I am on facebook.
== This happened ==
Just once or twice

Disabled flash player plugin and it doesn't freeze anymore. Plan on reinstalling flash now and hopefully freezing stops.
