Can't stop repeated crashes EXC_BAD_ACCESS / KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE

Today, similar to a few days ago, I got a series of crashes i.e. When clicking on a link in a webpage, I got crash #1 listed below. When I reopen Firefox & try to restore the tabs I get crash #2. Then #3. Then #4.
I have to restart the computer and start a new session to bring Firefox back to stable state.
I'm not a geek so please try to keep any replies simple.
I do appreciate the help.
This situation which I'll call a "series of crashes" happens when Firefox is open with usually at least four tabs open.
These "serial crashes" '''happen also when I'm doing nothing''' & Firefox is running in the background.
It seems to be happening more often since I updated to 3.6.12, but that could be my perception.
In "about Firefox" this info is populated
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X 10.4; en-US; rv:1.9.2.12) Gecko/20101026 Firefox/3.6.12
The Crashes occurred sequentially, and the 2nd, 3rd & 4th happened immediately upon trying to restart Firefox.
Here are today's Crash ID's Signatures & crash reasons
1. ID: 715c2129-b292-4373-a299-924002101121

It seems to me that I've gotten more of these "serial crashes" since updating to 3.6.12, but I've had this issue before.

Anybody?

  • Can''t Stop Repeating iCal Event Alert!

    I am receiving repeating text messages for two iCal events. I can't make them stop. They are being resent over and over again. Well over 100 times today. I've deleted the events from both the iPhone and iCal on the computer the iPhone syncs to. Nothing makes them stop. Help!

    Taking one for the team and on the phone with AppleCare right now. I'll try to take good enough notes to post back here. If nothing else, I'll see if I can post the support notes as documented by the rep as soon as it's published:
    On the phone with second person who is taking notes before transfering me to a third. While I'm waiting, thought I'd share what the first person had me do.Note that this did NOT fix this or any of what I suspect are Finder issues but it can help with some system wide glitches. In any case, it can't hurt:
    Reset PRAM. This is easy.
    1. Shut down your computer completely.
    2. Turn it back on and immediately, hold down the Control, Option, P and R keys.
    3. You will hear the usual chime.
    4. Keep holding them down until you hear it chime a second time and then let go.

  • How can I stop iMovie Crashing on video clip import

    I have only been using iMovie a short time period. Most recently it started to crash every time I tried to manually import a video clip. I've reported it to Apple several times over the past 48 hours. Sometimes I'm just getting ready to import a clip when it crashes. Very frustrating! Here I am a recent Windows convert but I'm about to return to windows just to produce movies (even Windows crashed, but much less). Any thoughts on how to solve this problem would be appreciated.

    If you don't get an answer here, you may want to post in the iMovie discussion here.

  • How to stop the crashing?

    Hi,
    When Captivate dies, which it does at least once a day, it
    locks up every other application I have. I've learned to reduce
    that number as much as possible, but I still have to have a few
    other things running. Sometimes I know what I've done -- I've
    accidentally used <Esc> to end a recording session a few
    times -- but other times I don't. And when it goes, I can't even
    close it out in Task Manager. Frequently I have to shut the power
    off because nothing else works.
    1. How can I stop the crashing?
    2. When it does crash, can I do something to help it die with
    dignity? So *everything* doesn't go down with the ship? Must I
    always reboot and recreate?
    Thanks.

    I may not be of much help here. But lets at least get the
    process started.
    First, what version of Captivate?
    Second, what version of Windows?
    Third, have you updated your video drivers from your hardware
    supplier, they usually update these things a few times per year.
    Fourth, are you saving to a network? I don't believe that
    networks are to blame for any of this stuff, but there is a
    possibility of network virus scans causing an interruption in the
    flow of the file. So are you saving to local drive C:\
    If you are in Windows Vista - DO NOT save into C:\Program
    Files, it is locked by Widows and your files are "shimmed" to a
    subdirectory under Users\Your Name\ and this has been the #1 gripe
    that developers have against Vista.
    Uninstal and then reinstall Captivate. It is a pain to
    re-register if that happens, but you may have something wrong in
    the install. Close everything before installing again.
    Assuming that you have the latest video drivers and you are
    dealing with Vista (if applicable), then you need to call tech
    support at Adobe and go over this.
    I hope this helps. Please let this board know the answers to
    the above questions, but Tech Support is available and it should be
    used as needed.

    How old is this machine? If it's less than 90 days old you have 90 days of Free AppleCare coverage, call them! You will find the phone number in your manual. If it's out of AppleCare or you bought it used take it your local Apple Store or AASP to have it looked at. We don't have enough information to know what the problem might be. You can run some tests such as Apple Hardware Test in Extended Mode 2-3x to see if it has any hardware errors. Beyond that it's really tough to say.

  • Firefox is crashing upon opening, crash report Bugzilla check says crash reason is EXC_BAD_ACCESS / KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE, signature is'sqlite3step' - help!

    I have been having this problem for months now, have re-installed Firefox several times, no resolution. It also will not start in SAFE mode. I did have an error message about 'Kernel Failure' before all this Firefox trouble - I am no computer expect, am I just better off taking my Mac [OS X] to the local Mac repair person?
    thanks!

    Hi Guigs2, Thank You for the reply. Was getting worried no one was going to help me. I am not sure how to attach the crash report. I have copied and pasted it here:

  • Mac running Mavericks Crashes Firefox Daily. EXC_BAD_ACCESS / KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE Please help.

    Hi,
    I have a Mac running Mavericks and Firefox keeps crashing most daily for the past three months and I get a "Firefox has crashed submit report" popup.
    It is usually if I am playing a youtube video or a movie (more then one) at a time. Or if one video is loading and I try to play or load another. I notice if I "que" or pre-load a long video (more then 15 minutes), then try to play a new one it will crash.
    I have tried the following solutions none of which have worked:
    A) Uninstalling and reinstalling firefox
    B) Reset Firefox (Help, troubleshooting information, reset firefox)
    C) Turn off hardware acceleration (Firefox, preferences, un-check hardware acceleration)
    D) Turn off "enable hardware acceleration in "youtube" (it now asks me each time if I would allow it to play)
    E) Plugin Check and Updates are all up to date (http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/) I only have:
    SharePoint Browser Plug-in (research)
    Default Browser Helper (research)
    These plugins are up to date: (as of March 7th 2014)
    Shockwave for Director 12.0.6 (Up to Date)
    Shockwave Flash 12.0.0.70 (Up to Date)
    QuickTime Plug-in 7.7.3 (Up to Date)
    Sometimes I get this as the "signature": libsystem_platform.dylib@0x4280
    Again I have tried the above solutions but they have not worked. Any help or advice will be appreciated.
    Thank you
    Shawn

  • Following repeated crashing of Firefox 3.6.11, I was required to amend my profiles to correct a security error (I got an ssl error) by deleting cert8.db file. I have lost all my browsing history in the crash, how can I recover it?

    The problem originated from Talktalk's Assist & Go software interfering with my browser settings. This caused Firefox to repeatedly crash with message (see below)I then got error "ssl_error_ssl_disabled" when trying to access my webmail- I followed the help instructions and deleted the cert8.db file whcih allowed Firefox to start & me to access my webmail.
    But all the browsing history has disappeared, I had about 6 months prior to the crash, how can I recover it, is there a backup?

    You can also manage all permissions on the about:permissions page via the location bar.<br />
    Use "All Sites" to set the defaults.
    You can open about:xxxx pages via the location bar like you open a website.<br />
    Firefox uses the about: protocol to access internal Firefox (setting) pages.
