Crash when Browsing JPEGs after Changing Browser Thumbnal Size

I am getting repeated crashes in Aperture when browsing a 3500 JPEG file project when I change the browser thumbnail size while browsing. The crash usually occurs after the thumbnail size has been changed and I am scrolling in the browser window. Has anyone experienced this crash? are there any work arounds?
G5 Dual 2.5 GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

Unfortunately, eradicating the current Nvidida driver and running a different one has not solvede the issue.  Although the Windows RunTime error now stays up long enough to Screen Cap:
Todd,
We are aware of the specs, but due to circumstances beyond our control, we are stuck with either trying to get the programs running again in XP64, or switching editing packages.  We would obviously like to avoid switching.   Two other designers are running the programs fine on the same set up, and as I mentoined before, we were also running fine until recently.  Since we didn't change any drivers or download any codecs prior to the onset of these issues, I'm not sure what else to do.

  • IMovie crashes when browsing Titles, and when exporting movie.

    Frequent occurance.  Crashes when browsing Titles. When re-opening it goes to a previous project.
    2nd problem, also frequent but always with one project.  I have tried numerous things, all unsuccessful. Have gone back to iPhoto to redo slideshow, have checked photo permissions, then rebuild movie but still unsuccessful.  Message:  "EXC BAD ACCESS (SIGSEGV)".

    Sometimes iMovie Projects become corrupted and can cause iMovie to crash. This is what worked for me after months of frustration without any solution.
    Copy the iMovie Projects folder to the desktop. To avoid confusion rename this folder Desktop iMovie Projects. Do not delete these projects from the Desktop iMovie Projects folder.
    Then delete all projects from the original iMovie Projects folder for iMovie - found Mac HD > Users > (Your home folder) > Movies > iMovie Projects.
    Either create a simple test movie project in iMovie or...
    or take, from Desktop iMovie Projects folder, one of the projects that you know was successfully exported in the past and copy from the Desktop iMovie Projectsfolder into the original iMovie Projects folder.
    Try launching iMovie again.
    In turn take, from Desktop iMovie Projects folder, another of the projects and copy from the Desktop iMovie Projects folder into the original iMovie Projects folder.
    Close and restart iMovie. Try to export this project
    In transferring one project at a time you can isolate the corrupted project(s)

  • [Solved] arch crashing when browsing files

    Seem to be having a strange problem of crashing when browsing files via the built in file manger of mate desktop. I say strange because it works ok if browsing via an app like pluma
    Some times it freezes before hand. It takes some seconds to happen but if I mount my extra drive it crashes all most right away.
    Just to say I got one other system up and running fine with the only difference being ram and drive sizes.
    Do anyone know what it could be?

    Sorry about late reply. Forgot all about posting this.
    It would seem it was a mobo fault. There was one other difference between the systems and that was the one that kept crashing had an ati card. I removed that card to boot from the igpu system wouldn't boot at all. Thought it got to be cpu or ram so did some swapping about to find it was in fact a fault mobo. I still think it's an odd one but I'm no expert lol
    Thanks opt1mus for your time in responding.

  • Photoshop CS6 keeps crashing when I try and change brush colour

    Hi, my Photoshop CS6 keeps crashing when I try and change brush colour. I use layer masks a lot and consequently need to switch between black and white brushes. CS6 crashes a lot and gets closed by Windows 7 when I either click in the icon to swap brush colour or press the X keyboard shortcut. It's driving me crazy. I run Windows 7 on a high spec Dell PC. The problem has only started a couple of months ago, had CS6 since it came out. Can I advise me please? Thanks.

    Please read these and proceed accordingly (restoring Preferences after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved might be of special interest):

  • I have vertical lines when printing even after changing cartridges.

    I have vertical lines when printing even after changing cartridges. There are no lines when copying, faxing or scanning, only printing. I have cleaned the glass, scanner and even dusted where the toner cartride slides in.  Any suggestions?

    Sorry but I have worked on laser printers for over 20 years and never encountered your issue.  That is of course if you are explaining it correctly.  When you make a copy to be printed or print a reports page from the printer or send a print job to the printer, if in all these cases you get the line, then yes the issue is either the toner cartridge or the fuser.  If you make a copy to be printed and it prints without the line (Put original in adf, press copy button and print should come out), then you have one weird unit since it does not make sense since the print formatter on the unit whether making a copy or printing from the computer or unit itself uses the same hardware.  Now to test if the printed copy has a line then just put a sheet of paper on top of the feed tray and do a self test from the printer.  When the back edge of the paper enters the printer, quickly open the toner door to stop the printing.  Remove the toner cartridge and look at the image below.  If the defect is present the toner cartridge is the issue and if the image below does not have the defect, then the fuser needs to be replaced.  Best I can do.  Good Luck.

  • Itunes crash when browsing Music Store

    I wonder if anybody can help me. iTunes tends to crash when I'm browsing the music store. It very happens often. I tried trashing the preferences and doing the disk utility according to the guys from the genius bar, but it still persist. I appreciate any help on this. Thanks.

    Me too, but I'm afraid that I don't have anything worthwhile to add to the discussion. It's been going on for months and no one seems to want to acknowledge the problem. iTunes works fine as long as I don't try to send Apple any money, so I guess it's their loss except that it means I have to travel to a physical store to buy CDs on plastic optical media.

  • Imac Keeps Crashing When Browsing the net (often when scrolling)

    Hello,
    I bought a refurished imac from Dixons about a fortnight ago. I was provided with no discs so I can't do a hardware test.

At first i thought it was Google Chrome so I switched to Safari but the same has continued to happen. The screen usually goes grey and I a message telling me to power off my imac and restart.

    What could be causing these crashes?

    As a first step I'd suspect Avast - try fully uninstalling it, you don't need it.
    You could try a 'safe boot' which should boot the Mac without loading the non-Apple stuff. Test web-browsing to see if the kernel panics go away.
    To Safe Boot: restart holding down the shift key until the grey progress bar appears. The Mac should boot in 'stripped down mode' allowing you to run a few tests web-browsing. Restart as normal from the Apple menu when you're done.
    If the Mac came with no disks you are probably running OS X 10.7.x Lion. You can check/repair your disk by booting while holding down Command+R which takes you to Lion's recovery mode. You can run Disk Utility from there to verify/repair your disk should you ever need to.
    If you feel you want some anti-virus software the one that is most often recommended on these forums as being trouble-free on Macs is the free/donationware clamXav: www.clamxav.com

  • Firefox crashes when browsing pics from my computer to upload to websites like facebook and blogger

    When trying to upload pics from my computer to facebook or blogger, firefox will crash. It's sending error reports but I haven't heard anything back and the problem is ongoing. I recently upgraded to firefox 6 and am running Windows XP. It crashed when I am searching for a picture to upload, I never get far enough to begin uploading. I've walked through firefox trouble shooting and this is the "signature" I got mpvpxss2_imx.dll@0x50be
    Firefox found 0 results for this problem. HELP!

    take a look at the upload tool [http://www.clicktoapp.com clickto] clickto
    with that one, it will perhaps work and is much more simple, by the way...

  • Gallery app crashes when trying to save changes

    After cropping a photo in the gallery app, it crashes when trying to save the changes made to the photo. It does not happen when saving other changes.

    It's an Alcatel One Touch Fire on 1.0.1. But interestingly enough the problem is no longer occurring. I'm still not sure about what caused it. So... I suppose I can mark my question as answered. Thanks for replying.

  • DVD set to wrong region and crashes when I try to change it

    I'm in Region 2. I only watch Region 2 DVDs, I only want to watch Region 2 DVDs. At Christmas, my DVD player was working fine with Region 2 DVDs. Today I tried to load another Region 2 DVD (for the first time since I updated the OS for the App Store, I don't know if that's relevant) and DVDPlayer tells me I'm set to Region 1, do I want to change?
    I have no idea why it thinks its set to Region 1 but yes, I want to change, so I unlock the padlock and select Region 2. DVDPlayer immediately crashes out completely with no changes made. I have tried rebooting, moving the com.apple.dvdplayback.setregion.plist and com.apple.DVDPlayer.plist and all sorts. It still crashes out. I can't find how I'm supposed to know how many region changes I have left, but as far as I'm aware I haven't used any. I get no dialogs warning me of having used any.
    Console reports these errors when DVDPlayer crashes:
    13/01/2011 22:03:45 com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.dvdplayback.setregion[35408]) Exited with exit code: 4

    Does anyone know how I can fix this so I can watch my DVDs again?
    Thanks

    Edit: I have found the DVD I played before Christmas and tried playing that, and that still works. However now that I have a DVD that allows me to keep DVDPlayer open, I have found the Region settings, and it still says that it's Region 1, with 1 Drive change remaining for some reason. The DVD that works is 2+4 PAL UK (Back and forth Region 2 only), as is the DVD that doesn't work.
