G4 mini crashing. Leopard 10.5.1.

Hello I am having an issue with my mac mini 1.25ghz, 1Gb of ram, running 10.5.1. I am using a zonet zew2500p for my wireless networking. Lately the machine has been crashing. It happened at least twice yesterday when my son was using it and it happened to me a little while ago. Below is the crash report. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

I transferred files from a NAS server to the Mac Mini Snow Leopard Server and now some of the files have Custom Access and can't be opened by some users. How do I fix this?

We're setting up our Mac Mini Snow Leopard Server, and in the process transferred files that had been stored and accessed from our Blackarmor NAS server over to the Mac. These files were all created on PC's and are Office Excel files, WordPerfect files or PDF's. When you look at the files on the Mac from the Mac and bring up Get Info for the affected file, it says that the file has Custom Access. The files that work properly don't have that configuration. I can access and open the files on some computers, but some users can't open the files from their computer even though they can see it. We're all using PC's and they get the Error: Access Denied-Contact your administrator--or something similar. I've seen on the web similar issues and it may have something to do with ACL permissions. I don't know enough about Mac OS to understand this, but what is baffling is that they can be opened from some PC's but not others, and all of the Users have the same accessibility to the files. Thanks for a solution!!

Core duo mini crashing occasionally - how to find the cause?

My core duo Mac mini crashes itself every now and then. The screen goes blank for a couple of seconds and the machine reboots with no explanation. This happens about three or four times a month. It has happened in the middle of the night with no active load in the machine, and also while me using it in the front of console. No warnings, no strange behaviour before the crash, just a sudden blank screen and reboot with no extra messages.
I'm looking for the cause but I can't find any hardware related errors from system.log, dmesg or console.log. Is there some other log file that I should consult to see whether the crashes are hardware or software related?
Any debug programs I should run to get more specific info to be collected just before the next crash? Crash dumps and a debugger?
I ran Mac diagnostics and some 3rd party memory test programs with no errors.
1.66GHz Intel Core Duo, 1GB RAM Mac OS X (10.4.6)

It sounds like your power cord may not be firmly
inserted. Check to make sure nothing is fraying or
loose about it before starting up the machine.
Checked. Also, the Mac Mini has been in two locations with the same symptoms; all the cords have been replugged and rechecked.
In addition, since it has happened several times,
have you checked to make sure the directory is fine
with Disk Utility's Verify Disk?
Yes, no problems there. Luckily the Disk Utility has not found any problems after the crashes.

Mini crashed while updating to 10.4.6; will not boot up

My Mac Mini crashed on me while I was installing the 10.4.6 update [and yes, I did repair permissions beforehand]. Now, I can't even get my computer to boot up. On top of that, I can't do much of anything when booting up from the installation disk—I get a major error while attempting to repair the disk & Disk Utility tells me to restart, and I get an unknown error when attempting to reinstall the original 10.4 system w/ the 10.4.5 [or part of 10.4.6, who knows?] system in a Previous System Folder. I don't want to have to erase my entire hard drive and start from scratch, but I'm running out of options. Please help!

You might like to try the procdedure I user to recover my mini here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=433929&tstart=0
Or the archive and install option on the tiger instll might give you what you need.
if you need to mount another drive, it'll need to be formated as an apple hfs partition, as in yet another bliding flash of genius, the dvd recovery environment won't allow you to mount a fat/msdos partition.
the command you're looking for is mount, and would be something like
mount /dev/disk5s0 <path to a mountpoint directory>
the mountpoint dir can be any empty directory you have.

Help! Just did the Update (ML 10.8.4) after receiving a new HD since mine crashed last week, and now my Mac won't let me past the log in screen even with correct password.

Help! Just did the Update (ML 10.8.4) after receiving a new HD since mine crashed last week and the shop didn't update it back to Mavricks which I had previously done...and now my Mac won't let me past the log in screen even with correct password entered. It just spins like I'm logging in and then goes back to the user log in screen. I did the process where I restarted and pressed control S and created a new user and password, but once created same issue and can't get passed that screen.
Super frustrated and any help is appreciated!

I have decided to dedicate this thread to the wonderful errors of Lion OSX. Each time I find a huge problem with Lion I will make note of it here.
Today I discovered a new treasure of doggie poop in Lion. No Save As......
I repeat. No Save As. In text editor I couldn't save the file with a new extension. I finally accomplished this oh so majorly difficult task (because we all know how difficult it should be to save a file with a new extension) by pressing duplicate and then saving a copy of the file with a new extension. Yet then I had to delete the first copy and send it to trash. And of course then I have to secure empty trash because if I have to do this the rest of my mac's life I will be taking up a quarter of percentage of space with duplicate files. So this is the real reason they got rid of Save As: so that it would garble up some extra GB on the ole hard disk.
So about 20 minutes of my time were wasted while doing my homework and studying for an exam because I had to look up "how to save a file with a new extension in mac Lion" and then wasted time sitting here and ranting on this forum until someone over at Apple wakes up from their OSX-coma.
are you freaking kidding me Apple? I mean REALLY?!!!! who the heck designed this?!!! I want to know. I want his or her name and I want to sit down with them and have a long chat. and then I'd probably splash cold water on their face to wake them up.
I am starting to believe that Apple is Satan.

Mac Mini crashes when HDMI-connected AV receiver powered off

This issue concerns a Mac Mini, mid 2011, running Yosemite. It is connected to a Yamaha AV receiver using HDMI and under normal circumstances works normally. However, whenever I power off the AV receiver, the Mac Mini crashes (spontaneously restarts).
I can't find any trace of a kernel panic, and there is no message after startup to say that the system has restarted unexpectedly.
For example, the system log from last night shows that is was performing a backup, and then there's the boot message at the time I shut the AV receiver down:
1/24/15 10:18:29.000 PM kernel[0]: hfs: mounted Recovery HD on device disk0s3

ASL Module "com.apple.authd" sharing output destination "/var/log/asl" with ASL Module "com.apple.asl".
Output parameters from ASL Module "com.apple.asl" override any specified in ASL Module "com.apple.authd".
I have swapped out the HDMI cable in case it is faulty, but this has not changed anything. This issue is easily reproducible but I haven't been able to find any possible solutions. It started after the Yosemite upgrade. Also, the AV receiver need not be displaying the Mac Mini video for this to occur. It will crash regardless of what channel the receiver is showing.
Any help would be much appreciated!

I have a similar issue after recently buying a receiver (Sony STR-DN1050) and wiring my mac mini through it.
Some observations that seems to be linked.
1. When I power up the receiver with another hdmi input than the mac mini, the mac mini switches fast between displays, from the TV name to unknown (observed through Remote Desktop), and sometimes log out the user.
2. Then, when switching to the mac mini hdmi input, everything works fine, as the mac will recognise the TV.
3. When switching off the receiver, the remote desktop disconnects and usually the mac mini will log off user or restart- not sure which.
Edit: Right now, when I powered off the receiver, the mac stayed on... no idea why, as it usually disconnects as mentioned above.
Edit2: As I look in the Display settings, the mac now recognizes my receiver as Display when it is turned off, presumably because I turned off HDMI pass-through on the receiver settings.
However, I still have problem 1 above: When I turn on the receiver with any other input than the Mac Mini, the mac will start switching displays and log out the user.

I want to install Snow Leopard Server on our MacPro (2.66) using Mac Mini Snow Leopard Server disks? I kept getting an error for backwards compatibility. Is this possible or do I need to purchase another copy of Snow Leopard Server?

I want to install Snow Leopard Server on our MacPro(2.66) using Mac Mini Snow Leopard Server disks? I kept getting an error for backwards compatibility. Is this possible or do I need topurchase another copy of Snow Leopard Server?

The OS disks that are shipped with a particular product
are set up so that tey will only install on that product.
It will install on any Mini of that exact vintage, but that
is all.
This is to prevent people from doing exactly what you
are trying to do. The license for OSX shipped with any
is only valid for that product. Also, Snow Leopard,
including Server, is only permitted to be run on one
computer at a time. Bottom line, unlike Lion, legally
you cannot install the same copy on multiple
computers unless some "family pack" or site license
is purchased.
Yes, you need to purchase another copy.
The copy of Snow Leopard license is here:

Mac mini crashing when booting up

Hi, does anyone know why the mac mini crashes at bootup. it gets teh strart up ping, then the loading screen, then the harddrive turns off. any ideas why this is happening

I had a similar problem recently, my mini froze during a backup, held the power button down left it for a few mins and rebooted, only got the grey screen with apple logo and the spinning gear and that was it, could not get past that so I installed OS X on an external drive, the internal HDD took upto 10 mins to mount then vanished copletely a day or so later, in the mean time the optical drive stopped working as well!!, took it to the Apple store who thought it ws a dodgy interconnect board, but they called yesterday to say that both the hard drive and optical have conked out, and that the machine was packed full of dust, and possibly caused everything to overheat!! (am allergic to dust so keep my flat quite clean!!), to replace both costs about the same as a new machine so not worth it!. So off to collect it today and buy a new one. Have had the machine barely 2 years! and thought it would outlive my Dell PC!

Opera mini crashes when scrolling

ANYONE ELSE HAVE AN ISSUE WITH OPERA MINI CRASHING WHEN SCROLLING? ANY FIX SUGGESTIONS? SEESM TO EFFECT THE 5800 TO.

LOVE my 5700 ExpressMusic, HATED my N97, Salivating for a N900
Like my post? Kudo me Please!

The only Opera Mini crash that I've seen was one that reported an "Out of Memory" error just before it exited.
I had left the Web Browser open (used it to find and load Opera Mini) and had forgotten to close it.
Since then I've had no problems with it, but then I mainly use it for RSS feeds as it is friendlier than the Web Browser's RSS feed reader.

Mac Mini crashes when exporting imovie projects

Hi.
When I try to export imovie projects, my Mac Mini crashes. Not ever, just every two or three times.
My system is 10.6.7 and imovie is 11. Can anyone help me? Thanks, I apologize for my bad English

Thank you, I'll try!
I hope you're right, because is boring to see out of the blue all the screen getting grey and the window that invites you to reboot, without hope... It happens, for example, after two or three succesful exporting projects, then I reboot and go on for another two or three projects and then again... I'm afraid it's a RAM problem, but I'll try to update system and software.
Thank you again

Mini crashes when another mac wants to access it

Recently, our mini crashes every time another mac tries to access it or its attached printer. There are no other problems and if the mini is used to access the other Macs all is fine. It has worked fine for over 2 years.
Anyone know what's wrong?

Didi you replace any ram? How many beeps do you get? It can beep up to five times in a row and the pause and start over. Check this atticle.http://www.welovemacs.com/whdoallthbme.html

2009 mac mini crashes w/black screen & color bar

Just purchased the 2ghz mini with 1gb of ram, I installed another ram stick w/2gb. Mini crashes sometimes frequently with a black screen covering most of the desktop with just a little bit of the desktop showing at the top and a thin bar of colors on top of the black screen.
Anybody have this problem? Is it bad ram, bad video card, should I use the mini display port instead of the mini dvi port? Should I take it back, can I take it back having installed the ram myself?
Any thoughts is appreciated

Well since the RAM is the thing out of the ordinary on a new Mac, it is suspect. Unfortunately you have voided your warranty by opening the mini. The user guide for the new mini states in a couple of spots that there are no user serviceable parts and opening it voids the warranty. So your milage with Apple on the warranty may vary. And unless you are a pristine technician they will know you opened the Mac.
Since you have cracked it open once you may as well test the RAM. If it works fine with the original RAM module alone, then you know the issue is related to the new RAM. Could you have seated the RAM poorly? Where did you get the RAM? Crucial seems to have had some problems with their 2 GB RAM modules. Does it work with the new RAM alone?
And before a bunch of folks come storming in here to dispute my statement about voiding the warranty, another user with a new Early '09 Mac mini added RAM and then experienced an issue that would normally be covered under warranty. But he reported, in this very forum, that Apple told him he voided the warranty opening it himself and installing RAM and that they would no longer honor the warranty, so he would have to pay for the repair himself.

My iPad mini crashes when editing mail.

IPad mini crashes when editing mail happens when trying to delete multiple emails. Any suggestions。

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
