Crash after screen sharing

Hi there, it´s a bit long story.
I had an MB138xx/A mid 2007 mac mini with Snow Leopard installed, connected to my TV for watching movies. everything worked great.
I had a Macbook Pro 17" with Snow leopard too from which I used to control my mini via screen share.
Recently I purchased a new MB pro 15" retina with mavericks.
I tried to do some screen sharing again with my mini, and it seemed to work, until after 30 min aprox. of use, the mini got frozen.
I shut down my mini with the power button and it got stacked at the apple logo screen. After a couple tries more, I managed to get to the login screen but mouse and keyboard did not connect bluetooth and I was not able to do anything. After some more tries there was no way to start it, safe reboot, verbose, clean NVram.. nothing.
Fortunately, I was able to start it as FW disk and was able to get all the data back using my laptop, but something looked wrong into disk utility and was not able to format it. The I got a software that enabled me to format it again, and finally I installed marevicks to the mini.
The mini worked perfectly even with 2 GB or ram, 1080p movies played perfectly.
I was able to control it with my new MPB with no problem.
PS: It was totally full of home dust and I had to vacuum it in order to remove it.
BUT.
Yesterday, my wife connected to the mini using my old 17" MBP and guess what.. The mini freezed again!!!!
Nos I am in the same point, no way to go beyond the apple logo.
Do you guys know why is this happening? Is there any kind of malfunction related to screen share between Snow leopard and Mavericks that makes the host computer to die?
The any other reason I can imagine is that screen sharing takes a lot of processing effort and my old mini suffers some kind of overheating?
But then, why can´t I start it again after it becomes cooler? Why was my HD kinda damaged in the first problem?
May be all the problems are because my HD is unstable? I was watching some MKV movies with no problem..
Might the home dust have caused some hardware problem because of unproper cooling?
Thank you so much for your time.

I can only guess right now, but I'd say there's a fair chance that dust on the RAM may have corrupted the drive in unseen ways.
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
Open console in Applications>Utilities, check the system log for the date/time of the last problem & the Startup right after that for clues.
click on the top line we want, Shift plus click on the bottom line we want, CMD+c to copy, then paste the text in a reply with CMD+v
A couple dozen lines should be about right, hundreds or thousands won't likely be readable.

Keyboard lockout after screen sharing

I was doing some screen sharing from another Mac on my LAN. There's no "disconnect" feature to stop the remote control, so I simply quit the Screen Sharing "application," closed all windows, and logged out of the controlling Mac.
Problem is, at the target Mac, upon every other restart approximately, like this morning after software updating, the keyboard is locked out. Entire keyboard has no effect. Mouse control is okay. The other Mac wasn't touched for days, while this target Mac has been logging in and out just fine. The restart puts me in a state where I cannot type in my login password, and restarting (with mouse) brings me back to the same state, restart after restart. I don't think it has anything to do with the software update, but instead, some kind of residual control from the other Mac that was not fully severed upon quitting.
Even after going back to the other Mac to remotely log into Finder via screen sharing, the keyboard in the target Mac is still like disconnected. Mouse control still okay. Same problem.
Any solution?

Entire keyboard is locked out EVERY TIME my Mac is restarted! Not just every other time. I mean NOTHING on the keyboard works when locked out -- like it's disconnected, but there's no physical disconnection.
The iffy workaround that gets me back to normal, and only sometimes, is restarting via screen sharing from the remote Mac, then "closing" +Screen Sharing+ (it quits immediately), then quickly logging out of the controlling remote Mac. And THEN I still have to restart the target Mac several times to get lucky! For example, just now restarting five times did not work, but going through the gyration again + restarting twice got me back.
Remote Mac = 2005 Powerbook 15" G4 running 10.5.5
Target Mac = 2003 Dual 2GHz PowerMac G5 running 10.5.5
This new phenomenon came about only after I used +Screen Sharing+ on the LAN.
Help!

Login freezes on iMac with Lion after screen sharing with another mac.

I have an iMac 27" Late 2009 2.8Ghz Intel Core i7 upgraded with Lion 10.7 (11A511). I have screen sharing enabled on this computer, and I accessed the computer with a 15" MacBook Pro also running Lion of the same version. The screen sharing work. However, when I exited screen sharing on my MacBook, and attempt to login again on the iMac, the login is stuck after entering the password.
Is anybody else have similar issues?

I am having this problem as well. On a late 2009 MPB. I can login to the guest account with no problem and I can also create a new user, but I cant access any of my filevaulted files. This happened after Silverlight caused Safari and everything else to freeze and I had to hard reboot, It's almost like lion is trying to reopen those apps when logging back in and it can't. I reinstalled Lion and repaired disks and disk permissions from the recovery hd. Anyone else??

Can't start video chat after screen sharing

I was engaged in a video chat with my dad - everything was working fine. I offered to let him share my screen, and that worked fine as well. He then tried to switch back to his own screen - I'm not sure what happened, but the end result is that neither one of us can initiate a video chat anymore. When we make ourselves available on our respective computers, we are able to text message, but the phone, video, and screen sharing icons remain grey. When I go to recent chats and click on the video chat with my dad, it says he is currently busy in another conference. When he goes into his recent chats and clicks on me, nothing happens. "Control" and "Escape" do nothing. We are both using 24" iMacs less than one year old, with Intel.

On the One successful Screen Share I have had a restart of iChat at both ends was needed.
I had no sense that Control ESC had worked. I know I lost the Audio at the same time but also Text chat went west as well. (typing but no replies)

Adobe Connect stays on tray after screen sharing

Hi,
When sharing screen and stopping the ScreenSharePublisher, the Adobe Connect component does not always close and stays on the tray.
Is there a way to ensure that the Adobe Connect component closes properly?
Thanks!

Here you go
That's after the plugin had publishing stopped. Seems to be a new issue. Was there a new update to the Connect Plugin? Only noticed this today on a freshly formatted machine.

Menu bar translucency not working after screen sharing

I've taken a screen shot of my desktop
http://picasaweb.google.com/victor.a.tran/Mac/photo#5202983242362095218
As you can see the top 1/3 of the menubar is white/light grayish.
This happened only after doing a screen share and I can't get it back to the original Leopard menubar, the only thing I can do to make it look "normal" is to turn off menubar translucency.
Anyone know how I can get the tranlucent menubar back?

All you have to do is create a sub directory on the remote server called junk or whatever, uploade the files there and supply a link. When things are sorted, you can delete the subdirectory.

Video constantly drops after screen sharing

Im on a brand new laptop running windows 8 just bought less than a month ago and the first thing I did when I got this thing was downloaded skype, its versaion 7.6. Before this, on my desktop and older laptops, Ive never had any problems. As of either this version of skype or this laptop (which I couldnt assume it would be the laptop when its brand new, but who knows) any time I am in a video call and screen share, the video will drop after roughly 10 - 30 seconds. Consistantly. First it shows whoever I am talking to's video drop, then mine. The call remains and we can reinitiate video, but it just keeps dropping every few seconds. It will go on until the call is closed and remade. It is quite annoying. I would like to get an older version of skype (7.4 maybe?) and try it out there to see if its the version or not, but I cant find any links to them. If anyone has any idea what is causing this, or has a link to an actual 7.4 download, Id appreciate it.

Please, run the DirectX diagnostics tool. Go to Windows Start and in the Run box type dxdiag.exe and press the OK button. This will start the DirectX diagnostics program. Run this diagnostics and save the results to a file. Please, attach this file to your post. Be aware that you will have to zip this file before attaching it here.

MBP Crashing after screen replacement

Heres the thing.. my 15" MBP was working like a charm, rightup until I brought it in to fixed. All the tech. did was replace the screen due to a lot of dead pixels, now for some reason my Toast 7.0 and Apeture always crashes for no reason at all. I'm just trying to make an MP3 CD for the car. I can't even get to the point of burning the CD it dies while i'm sorting the files. Aperture 1.1 Crashs for no reason at all. Ijust open it and leave it running, or make an attempt to flip through 3 or more pics and it crashs also. Just to put the cherry on top of the sunday, I can't empty my trash, it always comes back with "locailzed.rsrc" in use...
Sorry fro the book guys and girls, but can someone help me please! Thanks

Solution found for Vista 64 Blue Screen Crash when Itunes Sharing on.

After days of trial and error, I found the problem with my Windows based machine crashing (Blue Screen, IRQL error) when ATV would access ITunes through sharing. FYI, The blue screen error looked like a TCP/IP error.
The problem was with the AntiVirus software. I had to completly remove CA Security suite from my system. After removal, no problem to see library and share music, movies and pictures. Not sure what the conflict is, but apparently Itunes home sharing and Antivirus / Security software do not like each other.

ati3duag.dll
You're having trouble with the drivers for your ATI Radeon video card or display adapter, lord.
If you've got a name brand PC and the video card or display adaptor came installed with the PC, head to the drivers and downloads page for your particular model of PC at the PC manufacturers website and try updating your video driver or display adaptor driver.
If the PC is custom/home-built, or you've added the Radeon to the system yourself, head to the AMD support website (AMD now owns ATI) and look for updated drivers for your particular model of video card or display adaptor.
If you're already up to date on your drivers, or updating didn't help with the BSOD, try heading into your Device manager and reinstalling your video drivers or Display adaptor drivers.
Do any of those measures give you any relief?

Certain apps crash when opened while screen sharing

Hello all, I'm looking to see if anybody else is experiencing what I'm experiencing. I have a Mac Mini (MacMini2,1 - Core 2 Duo - Mid 2007) that I use as my families iTunes server. This box runs as a headless device and serves up our iTunes library to all of the computers in the house. After installing Lion on here, I have found that if I Screen Share to this box from one of the other Macs in the house and try and open certain apps (like App Store) or sometime even if I try and simply open a finder window they will crash. The crash doesn't bring down the whole box, the apps simple crashes and I get the "report to apple / reopen" window.
I think the issue might be related to the GMA 950 and some driver issue with Lion but I can't be sure. I do know that if I put a head (monitor) on this unit and try running apps natively (not remote over screen sharing) they work just fine. One last piece I have noticed is when I am remoted in to the box and TimeMachine is backing up the screensharingd and screensharingagent are chewing up most (75%) of the available CPU. This whole issue is very strange and I'm trying to decide if I should just blow this box away and start over?
Anyway, let me know if you have any ideas and or if you have seen something similar.

I am having a similar if not the same problem with my late 2009 Mac Mini running Mac OS X v10.7 Lion. When I try to use remote desktop to it after it has gone to sleep, screensharingd will complain with:
screensharingd[45619]: 3891612: (connectAndCheck) Untrusted apps are not allowed to connect to or launch Window Server before login.
screensharingd[45619]: kCGErrorFailure: Set a breakpoint @ CGErrorBreakpoint() to catch errors as they are logged.
Apparently when the mac mini comes out of sleep there is something that causes the digital signature of the screen sharing app to be invalidated. Perhaps a time of day issue or something similar is temporarily causing the app to show up as having an invalid digital signature and causing screensharingd to freak out and hang.

IChat crashes with EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGBUS) when attempting screen sharing

I seem to have an unstable iChat on my 27 inch i7 iMac since early January when it replaced a 24 inch model where iChat worked well.
I've been reading various helpful posts and tried things like trashing the plists, set my speed limit to 500kbps, running in 32 bit mode.
I use screen sharing to support my elderly mother and some of her equally elderly friends who I have converted to mac but it's getting terribly frustrating since I cannot reliably connect for screen sharing and end up having to drive for 2 hours to sort out basic stuff. The most recent crash is EXCBADACCESS (SIGBUS). I'll post a short extract below. But I've also had other errors (SIGSEGV).
I've now discovered that I get the same failure about half the time when testing in-house both connecting over the internet and via Bonjour to a new 15 inch core duo MBP both machines running 10.6.2. Any ideas please? Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

Hi,
It does seem that is a specific build.
10C refers to 10.6.2 as a range of builds
The numbers after that are normally 3 digits long and yours is 4
Those people that sign up for the Developers copies tend to get minor/text update as testers along the way which is why a General Release version tends to be a specific number. (In this case 10C540)
There are other things we could try that may help.
Try Launching Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities and Setting the tab to First Aid then use the "Repair Permissions" button.
Also try a PRAM reset.
Shut down the computer.
Restart it holding down APPLE(or ⌘)ALT(⌥)+PR Keys until you have heard three Start Up Bongs.
Do them one at a time and then test iChat.
After this we will move to deleting ichat .plists and forcing it to rewrite them from defaults.

Captivate 5 crashes after splash screen

I've downloaded the trial version of Captivate 5 and every time I try to start the program, I can't get passed the splash screen.
I'm running:
Win7 Home Premium, 64-bit
i5 2.27 GHz
4 GB RAM
350+ GB memory available
Upon initial launch, program crashed and produced an error message: "Adobe Captivate is not responding." I changed the AdobeCaptivate.exe file properties to "Run this program in compatibility for: (tried all options)" and "Run this program as an administrator" and no luck. Making the file compatible to a previous OS version caused the file to simply freeze (rather than crash) but prevented the Trial Activation prompt when operating as compatible for versions earlier than Vista.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling 6 times, after following various recommendations on potential fixes. Have also tried:
Cleaner tool - http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs5clean.html
AdobeNotificationsDllFieldReplacementTool.exe
Deleting the "amt3.log" file from the temp folder (saw this in a previous post, I guess to look for process errors)
The only "error" message listed in the entire amt3.log file is "Sequence Error! PreValidate called after Validate!" towards the very end of the log sequence. I'm at the end of my rope here. I almost purchased Captivate 5 without downloading the trial version first. I'd still like to purchase it but not if I can't even get the trial version to work.
Someone please help. Thanks.

Hi and welcome to this forum.
It sounds like you've tried most of the usual fixes for this installation issue.
I'm only a regular user like yourself but I know that the Adobe developers watch this forum closely for any issues like the one you're having. They'll usually chime in pretty quickly to offer assistance via some kind of screen sharing session so that they can investigate what's happening.
Stay tuned and be patient. Help is on the way, but even developers need a weekend.

Screen Sharing crashes when trying to connect.

I'm on my MacBookPro (10.6.6).
When I try to connect to my desktop (10.6.8) (from clicking the Share Screen button in finder) I get the "enter name and password" box. When I enter the info, I get a crash "Screen Sharing closed unexpectedly" and then I'm left with the "enter name and password" dialog with a spinning "connecting" status floating above my screen forever (killing the finder does nothing to it).
The macbook connects to my G5 running 10.5.8 with no problem. The G5 connects to both macbook and other desktop fine. The other desktop connects to the macbook and G5 fine.
Anyone have any thoughts?

Try and create a new standard user account on the MBP, and check if you can connect from this one. If so, something's wrong on your current account. You might consider migrating from the old to the new one, and delete the former after that.
If you can't connect at all, go to System Preferences, disable file sharing, then go to /Library/Preferences, locate the com.apple.preferences.sharing plist file, and relocate it on your Desktop (admin password required). Reboot your Mac, relaunch/enable file sharing, and let your system create a new com.apple.preferences.sharing plist file.

Iphone 5S crashing after 8.3 update blue screen of death

I have an iPhone 5S which is 90 days out of warranty. I updated to 8.3 and the first issue I noticed was my music app. When I play music it doesn't start off from the last song I played - I have to choose my songs again and restart my shuffled playlist. Last week out of nowhere my phone crashed but it was at 80% battery. The screen went black, then blue, then tried to reboot. It "reset" itself within a few hours. Next day I accessed the App Store and it crashed again. It has since crashed several more times using Facebook, email, turning it off...very frustrating. I brought my phone to VZW and they said it was a software issue. I then went to the Genius Bar and they said without restoring the phone and reinstalling ios, they have no way of knowing if it's software or hardware. The phone crashed as the tech was looking at my phone so he excused himself, went to the back and came back with a second opinion "it's definitely a hardware issue and since you are out of warranty, you'll have to buy a new phone for $549". WHAT?!? So wait, you JUST told me that you wouldn't know if it was a hardware issue until the phone was restored so how did you magically surmise this? Then to tell me there is NOTHING that can be done and if I wanted to restore from a backup, I wouldn't be guaranteed that all of my content would be restored to my phone OR there is a possibility my phone would be wiped clean and not restorable at all. Nice try and scare tactic. I left Apple with a phone stuck on the blue screen of death. I went back to VZW and they said its definitely not a hardware issue and even if it were, Apple is the company to seek, not them - they are just my carrier. I am so fed up with Apple. Every update and phone I've had with them has had issues. I don't know why I continue to be their customer. If anyone can help I'd appreciate it.

Sorry, what i wrote was wrong and i can't edit it again now
Here's what I was actually meant to say,
Hi
You could try basic trouble shooting, that's what everyone usually suggests first but it that fails to work then it is a hardware issue.
Did it start crashing after you installed or or got rid of an app? Oh and has it happened before on any other IOS?
In my opinion you should email Apple explaining the issue and they might be able to help you or tell you it plain and simple that your phone is broken

ios7 bookmarking web application to home screen via Safari, crashes after login and when we try to open any link inside from the icon that gets created on the home screen. Can anyone please tell me if there is any scheduled fix for this bug in safari?
From what i understand i see that - Cookies are not transferred between your website and your webapp when installing the icon on the home screen (for authentication purposes for example). It was working until 6.1 and now it’s not working anymore.
Can someone please tell me if this bug will be fixed in any future release, if so the ticket number of some kind that i can track, or if there is a workaround for this issue?
