Debug error message upon system restore?

My hard drive recently died so i replaced it. I tried restoring my system using time machine and an external harddrive and now upon booting, I get a big long error message at the grey boot screen that ends with "kdp_poll : no debugger device" anyone ever have this happen?
I booked time at the genius bar tomorrow but wanted to see if anyone else has run into this first.

Did you first prep the new drive?
Drive Preparation
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.

  • GET MULTIPLE ERROR MESSAGES UPON BOOKUP

    MY COMPUTER IS "IDEACENTRE B SERIES ALL-IN-ONE B305" RUNNING WIN 7 HOME PREMERE.
    All of a sudden, after a Windows 7 automatic update or running CCLEANER (I am not sure which) the computer produces multiple error messages upon bootup. The message is basically the same but each (about 17 of them) are associaged with a program the computer is trying to load. i.e. goodledrivesync.exe, skype.exe, clistart.exe, etc. etc.
    An example of the message is:
    Skype.exe Bad Image
    C:\Search Protect\Search Protect\bin\VC32loader.dll
    It then goes on the say the program is likely not designed to operate with Win 7 or the Image is corrupted.
    First, I can't determine if the problem is a Windows 7 problem or a Lenovo software problem.
    I have tried Windows update, I have tried Lenovo updating drivers etc. and as a last resort I did a restore but none of that helps.
    I need some specific ideas. What have you?
    Thanks Pat

    Neither product are Apple products, I'd suggest contacting the manufacturers of each product. Apple products normally do not need driver's downloaded like a Windows machine. You should see if the version of their products on your machine is the most-up-to-date for your configuration. If it is then the driver updates are not necessary however if they are not then you need to update the version of their software because any drivers will be incorporated in the latest version.

  • Help! my windows PC with Vista will not dowload itunes 10.7.  It gives me an error message: Your system has not been modified

    Help! my windows PC with Vista will not dowload itunes 10.7.  It gives me an error message: Your system has not been modified.I
    I have tried unistalling the current version I had which was 10.6.3, defragging and running a security scan. Now, the highest version I can get is 10.4.1. for some reason I cannot dowload itunes 10.5 or higher as it gives me the same message which is what I need to connect and update my iphone.  Anyone facing the same issue or can point me in the right direction?

    You may get better information on that error message by reposting in the iPhone forums:
    iPhone
    It's also possible that newer iPhone updates want an OS higher than Tiger. Post the specs of your computer and we can see if an OS upgrade is possible. There are a large number of G4 variants with different capabilities, so giving us something more than  just "G4" will get you help faster.

  • The NLS operation failed because the registry key Control Panel\International\User Profile cannot be opened. Error code is 2. Error message: The system cannot find the file specified.

    H,
    Since upgrading Windows server 2008 R2 to Server 2012 Standard edition, we get this repetitious critical error in the event log:
    Event 1001
    Op Code NLS initialization
    The NLS operation failed because the registry key Control Panel\International\User Profile cannot be opened. Error code is 2. Error message: The system cannot find the file specified.
    We originally found that the regional date settings after changing them in regional settings (DD/MM/YYYY) and they did not inherit properly from the upgrade but they are ok now. 
    I've looked at HKCU\.Default\Control Panel\International and nothing looks obviously wrong. Country codes, time & date formats are correct.
    How do we ascertain the  cause of this error and the specific registry key that might be problematic?

    Hi,
    This could be caused by firewall rules or security softwares.

    And in addition, the fix is worth a try.

  • I keep getting an error message re: System Extensions

    Almost every time that I run Software Update or when Norton runs its automatically scheduled scan, I keep getting an error message saying, "System extension cannot be used. The system extension "/System/Library/Extensions/IomegaSAM.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product's vendor for an update." I've also been having problems with Safari, in that when I've had a browser window open for a while and use it to go to different websites, etc., after I've gone to 2 or 3 websites it will then act like it's "stuck" and it won't do anything else until I close the window, quit out of Safari, and start it up again. Then it will be fine and work for a while, until it does the same thing...again.
    Are these items somehow related, and how do I fix this?

  • QuickTime Version 7.0d0 Error Message Upon Installation

    Hi,
    Once I have downloaded the latest iTunes and installed it, I get an error message upon trying to open it which reads as follows;
    QuickTime version 7.0d0 is installed, iTunes requires QuickTime Version 7.1.3 or later. Please reinstall iTunes.
    At first, I did as the error message said, and reinstalled iTunes. I still got the same error message after I did that. So I then downloaded QuickTime on it's own, but that still didn't work.
    Could anyone help me?
    Thanks,

    I get the error: Cannot Copy 08 the curse in on my house: Cannot find the specified file. Make sure you specify the correct path and file name.
    The song "the curse in on..." is on the "into the woods" soundtrack. I deleted the entire soundtrack from my iTunes Library, shut down and tried again. Same error. I did a search of all three hd (2 external and c) nothing found. I searched for song name and "into the woods" I even searched for the artist "Nicholas Parson Company" nothing on any of the 3 HDs. I also went into explorer and manually searched for the song under soundtracks, misc, various and I could not find it. I consolidated my library and restarted. I tried again and same error message. Can a level 4 or 5 offer any help. I am at a loss...
    The error won't let me copy one library to another HD.

  • Error message "The system cannot find the file specified." when reinstalling C3180 drivers

    Hello,
    I experienced scanning problems with my C3180 and the error message indicated several solutions, including to reinstall the driver.
    I worked my way through the list of fixes to this option.  I uninstalled the drivers, downloaded
    File name:
    AIO_CDA_NonNet_Full_Win_WW_130_140.exe [1/1, 290.27M]
    from www.hp.com/support and attempted to install.
    Just after the accept licensing screen, the system begins a screen with four steps, the first of which is Checking System.  Shortly after starting this, I receive the error message "The system cannot find the file specified.".  The file name may be in the message header, but I cannot determine it due to the path length.  It is off the displayed screen.  (see screen image capture)
    Closing the pop-up error message or clicking OK terminates the installation.
    I am re-installing on a Dell Latitude E6510, running Windows 7 Professional, Service Pack 1, 64 bit.  The printer was connected via USB, but I have disconnected for this stage of the install.
    I appreciate any assistance/advice you can offer.

  • Debug Error Message

    Hello,
    I previously wrote for help on a debug error message. Please see below. My question is, I have version 8.2. Does the error messages I'm receive have to do with a problem with this version? Would it correct the problem if I had the most recent version of Livecycle?

    Hi,
    I am not sure what the cause is and it may related to the version of LC Designer that you are using.
    However here are some threads, which may be of help:
    Designer ES 8.2.1.3144 crashes
    Object Library Issue
    Adobe Pro 9 - Livecycle
    I would research these and make sure you are happy to proceed. You may lose your fragments and custom objects, so back these up first.
    Good luck,

  • Error message Re: Systems File "AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext"

    On 10-3-14 I received this error message:
    The system extension “/System/Library/Extensions/AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext” was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product’s vendor for an update.
    I looked at the file and found that it was installed in 2012. Now I am wondering if my machine is corrupted. I did just install an HP Printer update from Apple, which may or may not have preceded the presentation of the error message.
    Thanks for any feedback.

    In Finder > Go > Go to folder, type in /System/Library/Extensions
    Look for AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext and move it to the Trash.
    Download and install the latest version of iTunes.
    Reboot your Mac.

    I'm still with you, just having a hard time wrapping my mind around the fact that you reinstalled OS X, which is like shooting a mosquito with a cruise missile, yet the problem remains.
    Here is the KB article for your review: Reinstalling Mac OS X
    Admittedly there is not much to it, but it should have eradicated the problem.
    I would guess that the 17 "hp_" messages have something to do with Hewlett-Packard and in fact I do use an HP printer with the computer.  I uninstalled the printer software and reinstalled it.  The printer seems to work fine, but the kernel extension error messages still keep appearing.  I'm inclined just to delete these 17 kernel extensions and then, if the printer doesn't work correctly, unintall and reinstall the printer software again.  Sound sensible?
    It certainly does. The only thing I can think of is that the OS reinstallation did not recognize those kernel extensions and left them untouched, AND the HP uninstaller did not remove them, AND the HP installer did not perform correctly. Having suffered through several HP botched software attempts I tend to believe that remains a posssibility.
    If you are so inclined, I would remove the troublesome .kext files as you say, then reboot. Be prepared for the printer to stop working, but once you remove them try the printer again anyway. The vast majority of printers do not require any specific downloads since their drivers are already built into OS X.
    As a last resort try reinstalling OS X again (I know...) and run Software Update to bring everything up to date. Apple released some new printer drivers a few weeks ago.
    Finally, if this doesn't work post the same question as a new topic since I am out of ideas. A new topic will get more attention than unresolved questions with responses.

  • Error Message: Unable to restore Web Dynpro Explorer

    I just installed the NetWeaverDev Studio Version 2.0.8. When executing the Studio and create a web dynpro project I receive the error message:
    Unable to restore Web Dynpro Explorer
    Reason: Unable to instantiate view
    com.sap.ide.webdynpro.projectbrowser.views.projectbrowser.
    Does anyone have an idea? Is there a need for environment variable to be set somehow?
    Regards, Olaf

    There should be no need to do some post-installation steps for the DevStudio (no env. variables, no configuration files or such).
    So I can't explain the error message, but here are some hints how to check for more information:
    In the DevStudio menu, choose "Window", then "Show View", then "Other...". In the new dialog, select "PDE Runtime" and open the View "Error Log". There you will find internal error messages of the IDE that might help to identify the reason behind your problem.
    A second, even more verbose way to get internal error information is the .log file in the .metadata folder of your DevStudio workspace.
    And the last way (if none of the above helps) is to start the DevStudio with a so called "console log". To enable this, you have to modify your shortcut to the DevStudio in the follwing way:
    - open the ShortCut properties (right click on icon, Properties)
    - add " -consolelog" (without the quotes, but with a space before the dash) to the target
    - modify the already existing "-vm" option in the target so that it points to java.exe instead of javaw.exe.
    Start the DevStudio. A new console window should show up. Any errors written to the .log file mentioned above will appear in the console window as well as additional information that shows up nowhere else.
    Kind Regards, Frank
