Computer shuts down when opening attachments from Gmail in Chrome

Hi everyone,
I've been having an issue when downloading file attachments from Gmail--namely image files, though I haven't tried anything else. My computer keeps shutting down!
I'm running OSX Lion on a Macbook Pro with 2.66 GHz Intel Core i7 and 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3.
The issues have persisted for several weeks now, following my upgrade to Lion. Could you offer any advice?
Regards,
Jim

It seems that this is the good old "I think it's 64bit" error. It tries to install 64bit components on your 32bit system. This specifically comes down to some DLLs on your system being missing or the wrong version, possibly even a hardware driver returning some false info (processor controlelr etc.) I'd check Windows Update and verify the SP2 is installed correctly. Also make sure your MSVC 2008 runtime and possibly .NET 1.1 are isntalled correctly. Verify in your device manager that the CPU is detected correctly and Windows isn't running in some sort of compatibility mode. if there came a specific set of drivers with your motehrboard, installing them alone might fix a lot of things, as then you actualyl may also see Windows Update install some components for the first time that may be missing currently...

HT1338 Why does my Mac shut down when opening Javelin from a website?

I am trying to open information from a corporate website. When the company's website reverts to Javelin, my Mac freezes. Any suggestions?

Hi Sebaz, first try repairing permissions. Go to Applications-->Utilities-->select Disk Utility. Select your drive then select the First Aid button then at the bottom right click Verify Disk and after it verifies your drive click on Verify Disk Permissions on the left. If there any errors click on Repair Disk Permission. Reboot your machine and test your Safari to see if the issue comes back.

In that case, you need to update the Acrobat Version at your end. Click on Help -> Check for Updates. Download and install the updates. Make sure your version is 9.5.1

Computer shuts down when I open itunes Store

Computer shuts down when I open itunes Store. I don't know why or how to fix it.. It used to work, now it doesn't. I haven't done anything differently. I tried to 'repair' it in the add/delete programs.

Some more info.................I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and Quicktime. No fix. I can access the store on my other desktop computer which I also updtated to the newest version, so I think it's some setting in my laptop. As I said, it works great until I click on "iTunes Store" then it shuts the whole program down.

Computer shuts down when I click on the list or grid display button

I've uninstalled an reinstalled 3 times and instead of the computer shutting down when I start itunes as it was doing, it only does it when I click on the display as a list, grid or cover display button. However it seems to unistall some parts at the same time as I can't open it all afterwards (error message says its not installed). This started to occur after a couple of weeks of non use and when I last used it I purchased songs from itunes. I now have current version but didn't when it first statred to happen. Help!!

Okay ... we'd better have a closer look at the minidumps the PC has been producing to see if they can turn up any additional information on what we're dealling with here.
Open "My Computer", and see if you can find a directory called C:\Windows\Minidump. (That's where minidumps usually go on a PC, so long as the Systemroot hasn't been set to some other folder.)
If it's been collecting minidumps, there should be files in there with names like "Mini(number-numbers).dmp"
(If you have "Hide filename extensions for known file types" enabled in Windows, the ".dmp" extension may not appear on the dump files. The numbers in the file name will be different for each minidump, if minidumps are present.)
Once we've tracked down some minidumps, we can have a go at analysing them.
1. Download and install the Windows debugging tools from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/debugging/installx86.mspx
2. Go to Start, All Programs, Debugging Tools For Windows, Windbg
Once you open Windbg, you will presented with a blank screen.
3. Click on "File > Symbol File Path". Here you will enter the symbols
path. Symbols are needed to effectively debug.
The path will be:
SRVc:symbolshttp://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols
4. Enter in this path and click OK. Now, go to "File > Save Workspace"
so that your symbols path is saved for future use.
5. Go to "File > Open Crash Dump" and load the file.
(An "Open Crash Dump" screen will appear ... doubleclick "My Computer", doubleclick "Local Disk", doubleclick "Windows", doubleclick "Minidump", and doubleclick on one of the minidumps in there.)
You will/should get a message to save base workspace information. Choose no.
Now you will get a debugging screen. It takes a little bit to run it,
as the symbols have to be downloaded as they are needed.
After the "bugcheck analysis" part of the screen comes up, look for the component that seems to be causing the crash. (It'll say "Probably caused by" ...)
Let us know the precise name of the component. (Include any file name extensions like .dll or .sys.)
If you can, have a look at several of your crash dumps. Are all the crashes being caused by the same component? If not, could you let us know the names of the various components being cited in the various crash dumps?

Email shuts down when open address book

Was unable to find if this was already covered but my email shuts down when I try to open the address book on the mail page (haven't ever used it, so don't have addresses there yet. When I open the address book icon in the dock, it tries to open, but then closes

Received email from Apple Support Re: “Application Suddenly Quits” info
No dialog box appears/Restarting does not correct.
Can’t read application’s documentation unless app opens/no documents in app.
Used disk utility
How do I do this?
-1. Uninstalling any third-party plug-ins or enhancements for the application that's quitting unexpectedly. When you update an application or Mac OS X, a plug-in or enhancement you previously installed may not be compatible any longer.
Checked to updates for Address Book software – none, however there was an update for OSX to 10.4.8 - should I do this?.
Disconnected all other devices (should I have to do this?? Printer? Speakers?)
Also suggested
Running Apple Hardware Test, on a disc that came with your computer. If you just installed hardware, such as additional memory, Apple Hardware Test can tell you if it's defective. If you can't find Apple Hardware Test, take your computer to an Apple Authorized Service Provider.
Should I do this?

Computer shuts down when backing up

Hello,
I am using an iMac with Mountain Lion 10.8.3. My Apple Airport Extreme is about one year old (fully updated and current). I am on a DSL connection with AT&T. I am backing up to an external 1.5 TB hard drive (non-Apple brand). There is lots of room remaining on that drive (about 700GB).
All backups in the past have been smooth sailing with no problem.
What's happening now are two things (but one of them I think I fixed). At first, Time Machine would try to back up but it would never succeed because it would give a message that there is not enough space available in the drive (it was saying that it needed 10 more GB of free space). But I know that's wrong. I could not figure out how to fix that issue, so I erased the drive completely and started over. Now, I no longer get the "full" message and all appears to be going well----UNTIL......(see next paragraph).....
Now what happens is that it begins doing the backup process like normal (this would be the first/initial backup since I erased the drive and started over), however, once it gets about 100 GB or so (very rough estimate), the computer SHUTS DOWN. It turns itself OFF. No error window, no warning, no nothing----it just "POOF" turns off. To get it working again, I have to push the power button to turn it back on. There is no error message when I turn it back on.
I am copying (below) the two most recent Time Machine messages from last night from that neat widget/app that I think pondini invented. I sure hope this helps to diagnosis what is wrong, because I'm stumped.
The backup log that says "Automatic" is the first one that failed where it claimed there was not enough space to complete the backup. Once I erased the drive completely and started "fresh", that is what the second "Manual" backup is.

Do a verify of the local disk. The sudden complete failure sounds like a hard disk or memory issue.
A5 http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
So the hard disk is plugged into the computer directly?? If not, then I think you should do it that way. Backup to Extreme USB drive is not reliable.
YOu don't have an error message for the manual backup.. and I am uncertain what the problem is.
Do a reset of Time Machine. A4.
And try again with the hard disk plugged into the computer directly.
You can look at other suggestions on the troubleshooting page.
eg http://pondini.org/TM/C4.html
But if you are doing it with the usb drive in the Airport Extreme please read this.

My computer shuts down when I put it to sleep

Ever since I used some of those auto-download upgrades my Mac shuts down when I put it to sleep. What's wrong?

Hi gazebo, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!
If many Permission are repaired, or any Directory errors are found, you may need to re-apply some the latest/biggest updates.
May even need to do an Archive and Install if you have room on the HD, but saves all your files and gives a new OS...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
I only use Software Update to see what is needed, then get them for real via...
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/
That way I can wait a week or so, check the forums for potential problems, and get Permissions & such in order before installing.

Computer shuts down when importing CDs to iTunes! HELP PLEASE!

Every time I try to import a CD onto iTunes, my computer shuts down. It will let me import one song at a time with no problem, but when I try to load a whole CD, the power just shuts off. Can someone out there who knows about computers please help me?

Do you have a dual core or dual processer? Sounds like it. Read this it should help you out.
Oh nm they changed the article to say they fixed the bug with the newest release from yesterday. Go download the latest version that came out yesterday and see if it helps you your PC. You probaly do have a dual processor. The new iTunes fixes that importing CD bug.

Computer shuts down when installing CS4

I upgraded my OS from Windows Vista to Windows 8.1, Prior to doing so, I ran a Windows compatability assistant and found no problems ind upgrading windows.
when I try to reinstal my CS4, the computer shuts down doing installation. It has happened 4 times, and looks to be in the same place during the installation process. There is no error messages. The computer just shuts down.
Any ideas how to solve this?

uninstall any cs4 files you can, run the cleaner and then reinstall.

Computer shuts down when Droid connected

s5710f Simline pc running windows 7
Everytime I try to connect my new Verizon Droid Incredible 2, the computer shuts down within a few seconds. HP tech support said I need to get Droid software to load onto the computer, but no one at Verizon has ever heard of this happening.

I'm not sure what is happening, but you could try stopping and restarting the following services and see if that helps at all.
Apple Mobile Device
IPod Service
To access services, right click on My Computer and select "Manage". When the Computer Management window opens, doublel click on Services and Applications and then double click on services.
Good Luck...
Just an additional thought. Are you connecting through a USB hub or directly to the PC. If you are using a hub, try connecting directly to the PC. And also, if you are directly connected to the PC, try another USB port if you have one available.

Computer shuts down when importing

Hi everyone.
I've been having a big problem with ripping music from CDs onto my computer (using iTunes, of course). It seems that every time I begin importing a CD, my computer shuts down. There is no warning, no sound, no blue screen. The computer simply turns off. It does this at no other time, only when I am importing a CD. It's very frustrating, and has only recently been occuring. I've uploaded over 20 gigs of music before this with no problem. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Gordon

Are you sure your laptop isn't overheating? Mine can when doing things like importing/burning CDs (but not necessarily while doing other things like surfing the web unless I'm on for a long time). Like you said, my laptop would just click off with no warning or anything. I know you say you've imported music before, but since you have a laptop I imagine you've been moving it around and recently you may have moved it to a spot that isn't as well ventilated. After several instances of a burned lap and not so burned CDs, I finally figured out that was my problem ...
