Console keeps repeating kernel ps_select_segment - send hi_wat_alert

Since I rebooted my computer this morning it has been running more slowly than usual. My browsers (I have Firefox, Safari and Chrome installed) take longer than usual to start up and load pages. I checked the console to see if anything was happening and found the following lines repeating every ten minutes or so:
kernel: (default pager): [KERNEL]: ps_select_segment - send HI_WAT_ALERT
kernel: max_swapon SUCCESS
I'm running OS X 10.7.3 on a Macbook Pro; I'm really unfamiliar with the finer details of how computers work, so please do let me know if you'd like more information.

    Hi Tom,
    To late now.... I'm in a real pickle now. I thought I was suppose to always update in order to avoid problems later on? I'm sooo confused... in tears.

  • Repeated kernel panic (seems related to ipw2200)

    Since a few months I have been experiencing repeated kernel panics at seemingly random times (the system boots up fine).
    Below is an example of the panic screen that shows up, it seems related to the network driver ipw2200.
    What I have done so far:
    - I have set my router not to use N mode (only B and G) since the adapter does not support N, this did not resolve the situation.
    - I have run memtest86+ with no error messages.
    - I have reinstalled the kernel, to no avail
    - I have reinstalled grub, although I don't think that could be the problem, since bootup is fine.
    Here is one of the panic screens that appears:
    (II) [KMS] Kernel modesetting enabled
    The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports:

    Any ideas how to resolve or further troubleshoot this?

    graysky wrote:Is that driver included with the kernel package?  If so, how about running mainline from the AUR as a test.
    I am using the standard linux kernel from the official repositories. The ipw2200 driver is included, but requires the ipw2200-fw firmware.
    While creating the package for the mainline kernel, the ipw2200 driver also shows up, doesn't that mean that it is also included in that kernel?
    Would it still be useful to test this kernel in that case? I'll try it anyway, I am making the package after booting from a 2011 archlinux CD,
    after which I have not yet had a kernel panic occur.
    Additional note: turning the wireless network adapter off completely still gives the same kernel panic at seemingly random intervals (from minutes to hours after boot)
    Also the computer seems to heat up sometimes, the following message appears: temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled.
    The kernel panic also appeared a few times while I was monitoring the temperature, which was at normal levels at those times.
    Any more ideas?

  • Installed Yosemite...now my MacBook pro won't start up. Keep showing "Kernel Panic!" HELP!

    installed Yosemite and now my MacBook pro won't start up. Keeps showing "kernel panic"
    PLEASE HELP ME!

    If you can't start up and log in in the usual way, try in safe mode.
    During startup, you’ll see a progress bar, and then the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Log in as an administrator to carry out these instructions. If you have only one account, you are the administrator.
    ☞ If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t start in safe mode.
    If you're able to log in, 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, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". Select the most recent one. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
    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 other kinds of diagnostic report.

  • ITunes Match keeps repeating and Sonos Play 5!

    So this note has two pieces to it, one related to iTunes Match and the other is Sonos Play 5.   First an observation about the iTunes Match repeating problem.  I wanted to start using iTunes Match for a couple of reasons so I started to run it. It went through Step 1 and Step 2, started Step 3, stopped and restarted on Step 1. 
    So I was reading trying to find a solution in the Apple Support Community.  Some suggested that there was a corrupted song in the library so I went back to watch to see if I could catch when it left Step 3 to go back to Step 1. I was not really able to see exactly were it was reverting back to Step 1. 
    I then discovered ajlewis1851 note about reset Match, Store and the computer (https://discussions.apple.com/message/20530276#20530276)
    I also discovered a song that was not in my library so I deleted that from the library as well.  Neither of these seemed to work and it was back repeating itself.
    I left Match running while I was doing more searching and I discovered the thread about gating the upload speed as the upload speed might be the problem.  Well I spent a long time trying to figure out how to slow my Airport Extreme Base Station down and then I noticed that Match was uploading between 2-15 files before it would kick back to the beginning and the total number of files to be uploaded was slowly decreasing. 
    Low and behold after quite some time, Match finally finished and said it was done!  This has to be some serious bug in Match, but eventually it got done.  Not sure whether the two steps before helped or not.
    Now to the beginning of the story.  I started down this path because I was setting up a new iPod Touch to serve as controller for my new Sonos Play 5 system.  Everything seemed to work fine with Pandora and I was very excited. Synced a few playlist from my iTunes library and for many of the songs there was the dreaded ‘unplayable icon”-circle with a line through it!  Did some additional searching and discovered that the iPod Touch to Sonos Play 5 was only possible with DRM songs.
    This is an aside.  It is necessary to place this discovery against my experience of playing my iPod thru a Sonos iPod Dock without having to worry about the DRM status of the music.  My disappointment was nearly overwhelming.
    But Sonos recommended a strategy of iTunes Match to remove the DRM from the songs in my library.  Hence, my need for iTunes Match from the beginning of this story.  But this is not a very clean solution.  Even after one has done the iTunes Match, it is necessary to find all of the ‘Protected AAC audio files’ in your library, delete them and then download the ‘Purchased AAC audio files’ from the cloud.  (https://sonos.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/626) and Apples directions (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1711)
    There are of tricks in doing this ‘Protected’ to ‘Purchased’ transition.  When you select Music in your library, and then right click on the top bar above the music you can select additional columns to be shown. Select ‘Kind’ and you can see which music is protected vs purchased.  You can sort this column, thus bring all of the ‘Protected’ files together, select them all and with one right click delete them!  (I very very strongly recommended you have a couple of backups of your library, just in case and there is a small box in the dialogue about deleting them from the Cloud as well---MAKE SURE THIS BOX IS NOT SELECTED). Much to my delight, in the ‘Cloud’ column, you are presented with the choice to download the ‘Cloud’ version (now DRM free).  As best as I can tell, one has to download each song from the Cloud individually. My fingers were very tired after millions of clicks.  I did a few at a time so it took me the better part of a day to accomplish. 
    I was very excited because I now had DRM free music in my library (I figured this would solve the problem).  I connected the iPod Touch to the library, choose not to sync my playlist so all the playlists from the iPod Touch were removed and then reselected the playlists of interest and had them placed back on the iPod.  I ejected the iPod and tested the playlist on the Sonos.  Much to my surprise, the unplayable songs were still unplayable!!! 
    I deleted the Sonos App and reinstalled it (Did not work). 
    I deleted the playlist from the iPod Touch, and resync it to my library (You really don’t want to do this as it also deleted the playlist from my library!)  Fortunately, I had one of those backups.
    I then sync another playlist to the iPod Touch.  This second playlist was the complete album from which two songs were placed in the original problem playlist.  Much to my surprise, all of the songs from the album were fine, EXCEPT, the two songs that were unplayable in the original playlist.
    I finally came to the conclusion that something had been stored on the iPod during the initial sync with the DRM containing music that prevented the non-DRM music from working properly.  With a deep breath, and only after I disable the iPod Touch connection to iCloud (in a couple different places), I then went to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings and ran it to restore original factory settings. It was plugged into a power source.
    After setting the iPod Touch up again, I reconnected it to my iTunes library and moved the problem playlist over that contained several unplayable songs.  IT WORKED!  All the songs were playable.
    LESSONS: 
    1. If iTunes Match keeps repeating steps 1 and 2 watch carefully to see if the number of songs to be processed is changing for the better.  If yes, at least in my situation, it completed the process, but it took much longer than I believe it should have.
    2. My suspicion is that if you have installed DRM protected songs on an iPod Touch, the Sonos recommended solution will not work as stated.  Interestingly, it did seem work on my iPad and 4G iPhone. 
    Addendum: I have discovered a few songs where the Sonos recommended solution did not work on the iPad and iPhone as well.  Several are from the Madonna.

    Well.....It is now working....... Including converting locked tracks located on the IPad library into unlocked 256kbps tracks playable by Sonos...
    Used these steps:
    Signed up for ITunes Match using ITunes on a Windows PC
    Let Match do it's thing with 700 or so tracks
    Followed the procedure in the link above to create a smart playlist of tracks with bit rates less than 256kbps
    Using the smart playlist as a guide, I deleted or download tracks not appearing in Sonos on the PC. Then, refreshed the Sonos music library and confirmed these tracks now available and playable by Sonos
    On the IPad, for tracks that were grayed out in Sonos, I deleted and re-downloaded the tracks using the Music app (swipe right to left on a track to delete it)... then got into Sonos on the IPad to confirm the tracks no longer grayed out.
    So... I'm now happy.... I like the Sono system of WIFI streaming which is very flexible and produces decent sound quality, but did not realize until after buying the Sonos bridge and two Sonos speakers that older ITunes songs would not play in Sonos due to DRM locking.  So, will now work through the library of locked tracks converting and re-downloading.
    Thanks again for the pointers on this question.

    iTunes keep repeating a song in my playlist on my iphone (4 I thnk).  The repeat icon is no longer on the upper right hand sideiTunes keep repeating a song in my playlist.  The repeat icon is no longer on the upper right hand side

    I looked under file but I couldn't find the "Genius & Playlist" option. I also looked under the other options on the top left side but I couldn't find it there either. And all "Genius suggestions" does for me is show similar songs already purchased in my library. It doesn't show me anything new that I haven't purchased.

  • 24" iMac repeatedly kernel panics when idle

    I have recently been struck by repeated kernel panics on my 24" iMac. Until a few days ago, this happened when I woke it from sleep. Running Applejack showed up a corrupt Kensington MouseWorks pref file and removing that seems to have solved that problem. Now, however, I frequently come back to my iMac to find it kernel panicked. In other words, it panics without me doing anything. A recent example from panic.log is copied below. Is there an obvious fix? I have repaired permissions and checked memory. Thanks!

    First, if your iMac has any third-party RAM, rather than the original Apple RAM, then I'd suggest that is the likely suspect. If so, that may not necessarily be shown in the results of the Apple Hardware Test. Best test of third party RAM is to remove it and replace with only the original Apple RAM, and see what the results of that are.
    I don't know how or if Remy resolved his, but based on your above comment, I'd suggest you try the SMC reset, found here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303446
    If that doesn't resolve, I'd also try a PRAM reset.
    To reset the PRAM:
    1. Shut down the computer.
    2. Locate the following four keys on the keyboard: Command (Apple logo), option, P, and R. You will need to hold these four keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    3. Start up the computer.
    4. Press and hold the Command-option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination after the startup chord sounds, but before the gray screen appears.
    5. Hold all four keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup chord for the second time.
    6. Release the keys.
    If that wouldn't help, then I suppose you'll have to proceed through the links in my above post.

  • Why does playlist on iPod keep repeating and repeating even though play count rule is 1

    Hello, everyone!
    I have a smart playlist of about 100 songs.  The play count rule is set to play songs with a play count of less than 1.  A few days ago, I reset all of the songs play count to 0.  If you ask me, the way I have it set up, when the iPod is playing with my headphones on, the iPod should automatically update each songs play count to 1 after each song plays.  After I have listened to all 100 songs, the playlist on the iPod should be empty.  The reason is is because since each song was updated from their play count of 0 to 1 after each one played the play count rule in the playlist should show no songs in the playlist.  Like I said before, the rule says to play any songs with a play count of less than 1.  Since all of the play count of the 100 songs are now 1 and not less than 1, the playlist should be empty.
    The problem is, when I'm listening to my iPod and the 100 songs have played, the playlist is not empty.  It just keeps repeating songs and it will never stop.  When I go to iTunes, the songs are randomly with play counts of 3 or 2 or 1 or however many times they have been repeated.
    Does anyone know why this is?

    The reason the songs don't delete themselves after playing from the playlist on the iPod is because your iPod is not smart enough to do that. It's only when you re-sync your iPod to your iTunes library does the smart playlist in your iTunes library delete the played songs. Then the playlist on your iPod will adjust to the number left unplayed in that playlist.
    So as long as you don't sync back to your library the number of songs in that playlist will never reduce to zero.

    This is an unsolicited ad for "winning" an I phone. I am very tired of winning all this junk. I certainly do not want ads talking to me now.

    This appears above the page, in the toolbar area? That's probably caused by an add-on. Try disabling ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable (or remove).
    Often a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    Does that get rid of the ad?
    Two other things:
    (1) You may want to check the Windows Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, for any undisclosed bundle items. Click the "Installed on" column heading to group by date so they are easier to spot. Remove whatever looks suspicious or unnecessary.
    (2) You may want to supplement your regular security software with some of the scanning/cleaning programs listed in our support article: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
