Firefox 26 causes kernel panic in Mac OS X 10.6.8 when viewing video
Last December 2013 when viewing the video on this site: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/topics/christmas/10534852/Tracking-Santa-Claus-with-NORAD-5-things-you-should-know.html
a kernel panic happened on my iMac running OS X10.6.8 "Snow Leopard". (1.83 GHz, 2GB RAM)
<nowiki>***</nowiki>This ONLY happened in Firefox 26 and the latest SeaMonkey, not in Chrome or Safari. This was discussed on a Mac Facebook Group, and it doesn't happen with older versions of Firefox, nor later models of Macs. This was brought up by another member of this FB Group, who has the exact same model iMac. I tested the site, and also got the kernel panic. ***
It was concluded that there is an issue with the iMac's graphics card and Gecko. I'm asking as I've had to suffer with Chrome for the past month and REALLY MISS Firefox, and wonder if you all know of this problem and can fix it with a later Firefox? Please?

Hi.
I am the other guy who initially came across this problem.
I can confirm it only does it in Firefox 26 on 2006 1.83Ghz Core Duo iMac running Snow Leopard. It doesn't do it Chrome or Safari.
I also tried it on my 2009 2Ghz MacBook runningn Snow Leopard and Firefox 26 and it worked fine as well as Mavericks and Firefox 26 on the same Mac.
Reverting back to Firefox 25 has resolved the issue on the iMac.

Quadro 4000 causing kernel panics, 2010 mac pro
Had this happen twice now.
Running a quadro 4000 card (brand new).
it's in sot 16x
setup is:
slot 1: 5770 ati
slot 2: quadro 4000
slot 3: sonnet 4ep
slot 4: RED ROCKET
i've had this happen twice now, once I was in resolve and it crashed.. booted back up and the quadro 4000 card wasn't showing up in profiler anymore. took it out, re seated it and then it was fine.
2nd time I was in preview lookign at some pictures and the computer crashed, causing the reboot and again, the card has vanished from profiler.
I'm on a job right now shooting RED so I don't require it but would like to get to the bottom of this, latest CUDA drivers installed. Is there some sort of software I can run to see if the card is kapoot? needs replacing?
thanks guys.
running 10.8.2 as well.
here's the log:

Darwin Kernel Version 8.10.1: Wed May 23 16:33:00 PDT 2007; root:xnu-792.22.5~1/RELEASE_I386Thank you for the possible solutions. I run file system check after every crash (this is force of habit from old UNIX world). I am beginning to suspect Maxtor 1 TB Firewire drive or MPICH2.0. Although I checked my MPI based codes. They are not thread based so there should not be any mutex related calls (unless internally it is done by MPI). Usually user codes can't cause Kernel panic unless some system or library call has problems. Anyway .. Thanks for the tips and I will wait for four days to see if I can reproduce crash after detaching TB drive and not running MPI based codes. Lets see.

RAID mirror with software utility caused kernel panic every time
Using disc utility to make a mirror of 2 drives, click create and i get kernel panic and have to power off machine. if i try to start the machine with either of the two disks in it (together or individually) i get same kernel panic and have to power off.
The disks are in an external storage array (sonnet d500). I have a second storage array with raided disks in and i have raided disk inside the mac too. these all work fine..
originally 2 weeks ago i had the 2 disks working in a group of 4 disks set as a mirror of 2 striped disks. One disk in this setup failed and with this config you can never 'recover'or rebuild it - you get a degraded mirror and you can backup the data, but you must completely rebuild the raid again as the mirror of stripes never lets you add a new disk in again.period. not good.
I replaced the failed disk and rebuilt the mirror of stripes. this lasted a day until a second disk failed (all 4 were bought at same time so i was kind of expecting that to happen once one failed).
i replaced the second faulty hdd and thought about my disk usage and decided i would not make another mirror of stripes and i would make 2 mirrors instead for safe-ish storage and then transfer data to a striped raid set for editing from instead of direct from the mirror of stripes volume.
i tried to delete the raid but got a kernel panic
if i started the machine with any of the 4 disks i would get a kernel panic.
i moved the disks one by one into an older G5 running Tiger and managed to erase the raid info on 2 of them. The two new ones had some strange raid info and the Tiger machien thought there was an extra disk in the machine and would not erase or partition or allow me to destroy the raid whatever i tried.
I will be moving these now into an old XP PC to try to erase the boot records etc and erase them to be able to use them again in either mac pro or G5. painful..
so.. i ended up with 2 erased drives and have 2 new drives with dodgy raid info that causes kernel panics on the leopard machine and wont go in the Tiger machine.
The two erased drives are what ive now been trying to use in the mac pro to create a mirror - this now caused kernel panics when creating the mirror to start with and when installed in the machine at all. so i will be erasing them again in the tiger machine soon (its busy erasing with zeros another new disk that i added to the Tiger machine 2 weeks ago which seems to have some fault when raided!!! but thats another story).
so.. is anyone else having problems with creating basic mirror in 10.5.4 or is it just me??
i have a sonnet tempo e4p card with 2 external sata disk enclosures, latest firmware for the e4p card. all other previously existing raid volumes are working fine. i have one set of 2 striped disks, one set of 3 striped disks and one set of 2 stripes which are mirrored - all happy and working fine. but i cant make a new mirror of 2 disks...
I phoned Apple support and they said all raid info was kept on the disk itself and nothing on the actual machine and suggested i take the machine to an apple care centre for some tlc (although its disk i am having a problem with). since all my other disk arrays work fine i don't really want to rebuild the whole machine from scratch if i can avoid it.
Any suggestions of what i can try ??well it turns out the new disk i bought just werent any good. my g5 powermac raid mirror issue was related to one new disk with lots of bad blocks (speed tools showed that up) so i have learnt my lesson on cheap non raid disks for raid..
am waiting on a couple of new ultrastar enterprise disks to tuen up so i can go back to the macpro and try to add a mirror again.
i am still stuck wih several new disks that i cannot format now in the macpro on leopard or on the g5 powermac with tiger.
ive tried softraid and that cant do it, speedtools pcformat util cant do it, disk utility crashes when i try to eras them and diskutil from termianl starts then doenst get anywhere and my pc sata card doesnt work so my last resort pc option still doesnt help me clear the partition map on these drives - ones that diskutility on leopard made for me - and drives which still cause kernel panics on the macpro if i put them in it..
here is what diskutil says on my g5:

disk0 is the one with the bad partition info.
it thinks it has a double raid as the console shows on startup:
(both store45 and cache it thinks are on this disk - cache was my old mirror of stripes set on other machine, store45 was new name for my mirror, so seems like it hadnt deleted the original raid partition info before making new info which now kernel panics)

so currently i have 2 new 500gb disks which cant be partitioned back to anything at all on either machine. looks like i will have to buy a new pc to reformat them..
any suggestions of how to clear the partition map info and get them back to freespace ?? -
PS Extended CS6 causing kernel panics
I've been getting one or two a week. Haven't figured out yet what triggers it, but it only happens in CS6. I did recently reinstall the entire OS, so that's clean. Here's the latest panic info the reboot generates to send to Apple. Doesn't mean anything to me, other than the panic notation near the top of the info tells you what it thinks happened.

Yes, that is normally the case. I brought this up here because while working in PS is the only time this happens. I know it doesn't make sense, but there it is.
Not sure why the crash report stated 10.8.0. It's incorrect on two counts. For one, I'm working in Snow Leopard, 10.6.8. I do have Mountain Lion installed on a separate drive for testing, but that already is at 10.8.2. Regardless, it's not the OS I was even in, so I don't know why it reported 10.8.0 as the kernel.
Anyway, I noticed (after posting this of course) that there was a 13.0.1 update for PS CS6. I applied that and we'll see how it goes from there as the update is noted as fixing a number of crashing problems. -
Airport causing kernel panics and kp in safe boot.
Last week I got my first kernel panic in years. It happened while I was asleep and checking an extrenal drive for bad blocks with TechTool. It turns out that the drive indeed had bad blocks and found that the cpu was shut down when I awoke. I started up the computer and it wasn't able to stay on for more than 10 min max before the next kernel panic. I checked here for more advice on kernel panics and started to try to narrow the number of culprits. Everything was unplugged and still kp. Instaled a new drive with a week older system from Time Machine and still kp. Reset NVRAM and replaced pyhsical RAM and still kp. Removed the Airport Extreme card and still kp. Booted into Safe Mode after all of the previously mentioned and still kp. I'm now going to take the drive and swap it into another body that I have to see if the root is actually on the drive on the physical hardware of the cpu.
I was interested in this thread and read all of the links that jpl posted. Airport causing Kernel Panic (?) Jason then replied that it had been solved due to a "permissions problem" I wish he gave more info on what exactly he did to resolve the problem as it's been almost a week now without any work being done for me.
I've also noticed this very strange behavior that might shed some light onto the issue. When I open System Prefs and close the window there is a strange colored pattern that will always flash after the window has been closed. I tried to post it to my me page but for somereason it wouldn't play for me so there's that and the YouTube version too.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zrTt88YdBo
In addition when the computer has started up and the system loads. Checking Activity Monitor shows that there are 50 or more threads active for the the kernel_task. Inspecting this doesn't seem to show any useful information.
Finally here are a few of the recent crashes I hope that someone might be able to shed some light on this extremely frustrating problem for me.

Thanks in advance,
MaxMy vision is pretty poor, still cant see it, but...
At this point I think you should get Applejack...
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
The 6 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
Trash old Log files.
First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process. -
I have an old Agfa SnapScan 1212u USB scanner and up until today it has worked fine. Then suddenly it started causing Kernal Panics. It happens about 30% of the time. It scans the first 10% then throws up the Kernel Panic message and I'm forced to restart. I have run the Disk Repair Utility, repaired permissions, reinstalled the Agfa Scanwise driver, deleted all scanner related preferences and disconnected all other USB devices but nothing seems to work. The only software update I've done recently is the August and Java Security updates. Could either of these things be the problem? This is the first time I've had Kernel Panics on my Mac Mini. I doubt it's caused by the ram. It has worked flawlessly since I put in the 1GB module in July.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Cheers
djonWell, I downloaded Vuescan and set it up but now I have another problem. Vuescan constantly crashes. Sometimes it crashes when I'm changing settings and sometimes is crashes after a scan. I set the memory settings very high so it shouldn't be a memory issue. I've tried just about everything to get this scanner working with Vuescan. I even installed a fresh copy of Panther on my Firewire drive but it only reduced the crashes not eliminate them. I'd like to get Vuescan working because it seems to make better scans than Scanwise did. At least it doesn't cause Kernel Panics. Does anyone have any idea what's going on? I'm beginning to think that it might be a hardware problem with the scanner.

Battery Update Causing Kernel Panics?
It seems that ever since I installed the Battery Update it's been causing Kernel Panics on my MBP. Three since yesterday in fact. Has anyone else been experiencing this?
MacBook Pro 1.83 GHz Mac OS X (10.4.9) 1 GB RAM, 80 GB HDD, ATI Radeon X1600Hmm I have seen multiple posts on the computer not booting the OS (gets to the grey apple with spinning gear screen) but so far I think you are the first I have seen reporting kernel panics.
Can you boot to the install cd? I'd try running the disk utility from the install disk and verify/repair permissions and verify the disk as well. (repair disk if verification fails)
Here is an article that may help ya:

Firewire drives cause kernel panic on PPC, not Intel
I'm trying to get three firewire drives to work on a PowerMac G5. Before updating to 10.4.8, they worked individually, but not chained together. Now, if you connect any one of them, the system has a kernel panic. They would cause the panic on the earlier version of 10.4 when chained together. Everything works perfectly on a MacBook and a MacBook Pro, both running 10.4.8.
Below are the notes I took on the three drives as I was troubleshooting. All three are from Maxtor.
Drive 1:
300GB
EDA EB300G0160101
Has a filesystem, but Disk Utility claims there is no partition. It mounts on an Intel Mac, but causes a kernel panic on a G5.
Filesystem is Mac OS Standard
G5 System will panic while booting if the drive is connected and turned on.
G5 panics when trying to mount drive.
Drive 2:
200GB
EDA Ay200A0260101
Has a Mac OS Extended filesystem
G5 System will panic while booting if the drive is connected and turned on.
G5 Panics when trying to mount drive.
Drive 3:
300GB
EDA BA300D0080101
Has a Mac OS Extended (Journaled) filesystem.
G5 System will panic while booting if the drive is connected and turned on.
G5 panics when trying to mount drive.
Because of the change when 10.4.8 was installed, I suspect this is a driver problem. It could also be a controller problem that just happened to get worse when the update was done.
I ran the Apple Service Diagnostic on this machine and was unable to find anything wrong since I replaced both CPUs.
Any ideas?
PowerMac G5 dual 1.8 Mac OS X (10.4.8)If the drives were formatted on the Intel Mac then they will have a GUID partition map installed on the drive. PPC Macs will not understand the GUID partition scheme which may be the root cause of your problem. If you want to use the drives on both platforms they need to be re-partitioned using the APM partition scheme.
Also, you should not use Mac OS Standard. You should use Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) -
Kernel panic on Mac mini with Airport Extreme 802.11n
After experiencing frequent kernel panic errors I tested the hard drive with Diskwarrior but no errors and ran Norton AntiVirus but no virus. Finally, I reinstalled the OS. The Mac mini worked fine over night but when I reinstalled the Airport Extreme Software in the morning, I experienced multiple kernel panic errors again. So I assume that the Airport Extreme Software plus the updates are not stable yet. Does anbody know how to fix that problem?
Markus, MunichFirst, Welcome to the discussions.
There are several factors that can cause Kernel Panic's
I would try 2 things for sure.
Disable or UnInstall Norton. There have been some problems reported, however most have been addressed for the newer versions for 10.4
Here is a very detailed FAQ that covers most Operating Systems and the reasons for Kernel Panic's
Sorting out and finding the exact cause can be a little time consuming, take your time and be through.

Readynas duo mounted over ethernet causes kernel panics
I've found out what is causing kernel panics on my machines, but i'm not sure how to resolve it. I have a g4 laptop and a new mac mini, both mount the readynas via mount_afp using a LoginHook. When the laptop or the mini go to sleep, the ethernet connection is powered off and at some point the readynas goes to sleep as well. So, when the laptop/mini wake from sleep, they have trouble re-establishing the mount to the readynas (as it needs time to spin it's drives up) and then the laptop/mini kernel panic...shouldn't this really be just a lost connection message, rather than a full fledged panic!
This is where we have a difference of opinion...If i can mount an external box over ethernet/firewire/usb and it causes the machine to kernel panic, then the software is not robust enough to handle the exception cases. Running 10.4.x for years with the same external hardware never yielded such results.

Using 2 memory modules causes kernel panic
In early 2009 I upgraded my memory from 512 to 2 GB, 2 modules of 1GB each. This past January (just shy of 2 years later) I got a kernel panic. I tested running with a single module, and one module caused panic, the other was fine. Both slots function with the good module. So I got two new matched replacement chips from OWC, put them in and got kernel panics during the boot process. Yesterday I spent testing memory configurations and found this:
1. chip 1 alone runs fine and passes all Rember memory tests in slot 1.
2. chip 2 alone runs fine in slot 1 and 2, passes all memory tests in slot 2.
3. chips 1 and 2 together, in either slot, cause kernel panics before the OS is loaded.
Has anyone seen this problem? Will it go away if I use top of the line (Apple) memory chips?
When the kernel panics started back in January, an AppleCare advanced advisor said he had the same problem and he had to remove one module to stop the kernel panics. Running on 1GB doesn't work for me because I tend to max out the memory and programs like Mail, Safari, Photoshop, etc. become unreponsive all together.
thanks -I have spent more time on the phone with OWC about this than I care to remember. Their latest request is that I use an eraser to clean the metal contacts on the chips; if that fails, I get to send the chips back. Whether I get a refund or yet another set of replacement chips, I don't know. They are not experts on Apple machines, that is clear.

External LaCie Multi Recorder causing kernel panics since reloading OS
I just replaced my main internal hd with a new 1TB WD Caviar Black. I migrated all of my user information from my old drive via Time Machine & all seemed well. Since I did a fresh, zero out data install of the OS on the new drive, I need to reinstall my programs. Some of my older programs are kept on DVD-RAM disks that I've had since my old G4. To access these files I use my LaCie Multi recorder which was working fine prior to the HD switch.
When I put my DVD-RAM disk into the drive it's now causing kernel panics.
Anyone know what could have caused this or how I might correct the problem?
Thanks.Okay, it seems that I've got a bad disk. I connected the drive to my laptop & used another dvd & all worked as it should. Put my program back-up disk in & it caused a panic.
New question, is there any way to repair the disk?
I've got DiskWarrior & TechTool Deluxe but I'm not sure how I might go about the repair as the panic occurs while the drive is trying to access the disk. -
Hi all,
I've got an rt3062 chipset wireless card and it's been causing kernel panics ever since the upgrade to linux-3.0.
I was using the driver and firmware supplied by ralink and compiling it as the rt3562sta driver and it used to work great but it doesnt seem to support anything higher than kernel 2.6.39.
I'm not exactly sure which error logs to post, so...
Anybody else having this issue? and maybe find a workaround?
ThanksI am using the same combination, successfully, with kernel 3.0.7-1. I do not recall having to do anything special to get it to work.
06:00.0 Network controller: Ralink corp. Device 3062
Subsystem: Ralink corp. Device 3062
Flags: bus master, slow devsel, latency 32, IRQ 19
Memory at fbdf0000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 3
Kernel driver in use: rt2860
Kernel modules: rt3562sta, rt2800pci

ITunes causing kernel panics because I'm streaming to multiple Airplay Speakers?
Any idea what is causing kernel panics that seems to have started when I began streaming to multiple Airplay Speakers? iTunes is listed as the culprit in the crash report.
My question: is there a way to select multiple speakers from AppleTV for Airplay?
Unfortunately not.
