Has anyone had an issue with the Last Software Update for Lion 10.7 causing a system to be non-bootable? As of 12 June 2012?

I recently did a Software Update of OSX 10.7.4 (on June 12, 2012). It was on an iMac 27" Mid 2010.
After the Update, the system froze on a grey screen, the update failing. The mouse was still active, but the system was otherwise frozen.
The keyboard Caps Lock light would not respond. After waiting 15 minutes, I did a Power-Off by holding down the power buttone.
Upon reboot, the system gave a "grey screen of death" with a lernel Panic, noting the following was on the screen.
panic(cpu 0 caller 0xffffff800064ba7b): "Unable to find driver for this platform: \"ACPI'.\n"@/SourceCache/xnu/xnu-1699.26.8/iokit/Kernel/IOPlatformExpert.cpp:15 04
No safe mode.
Alt boot disk list woill not work.
Only Cmd-R to get to Revovery Boot.
I am currentluy restoring off Time Machine Backup taken earlier today.
Is this something other perople have come acress?
Would be interested to know...

Yes. Many are having this issue and it's from Apple's Thunderbolt Update which was released yesterday to support Apple's new Thunderbolt adaptors. Here is information on how to fix this issue: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57451440-263/thunderbolt-update-plaguing-ma cbook-pros-with-kernel-panics/

  • Has anyone had any issues with the most recent update?

    I just did the latest software update for my Apple TV, and now the little light is blinking fast, and the only picture on the screen is of the Apple TV with a white cable leading to the iTunes icon. Any ideas what's going on with my Apple TV? I tried unplugging it, but it didn't change a thing.. Any ideas or suggestions on the way ahead are much appreciated!
    Thanks

    The microUSB cables are fairly common... most portable electronics today use them for file transfer/charging.
    If the user does not own one, they can be purchased from most retailers fairly inexpensively.

    Has anyone had an issue with the app scramble with friends after upgrading to iOS 6. Tapping the screen will not select the tiles and hold them.

    Yes I am having the same problem. I can't find any info about it and nothing seems to help. I am just posting this in hope that if it's a wider problem, there will be a quick solution.

  • Has anyone had any issues with the sleep indicator light?

    I have a 15.4-inch MacBook Pro 2.8 GHz (Late 2009) and recently I have noticed some issues involving the sleep indicator light and my Mac sleeping.
    I learned that the sleep indicator light is supposed to be on when you press the power button until the chime sounds and then its supposed to be recognized when the computer sleeps or when the lid is closed.
    Lately, the sleep indicator light has not be working when the computer boots (it still chimes), when the computer shuts down or when the computer is sleeping. The computer still sleeps if you close the lid, but it acts up when you don't and use the Apple menu (Apple > Sleep), keyboard shortcuts (CmdOptionMedia Eject) or use the power button and select "Sleep". Usually when I use this method instead of closing the lid, the authentication login window appears and when I click "cancel", the computer sleeps.
    But still the sleep indicator light does not appear any time. I'm wondering if I need to get my Mac serviced. I still have a 2-year Best Buy Geek Squad warranty on the MacBook Pro.
    +It is weird that this is happening to me, cause my computer is only 1 year and 4 months old.+
    Is there anything you know that would help fix this issue.

  • Has anyone had this issue with CUPS-PDF after update to Yosemite?

    It states the PDF is getting made but have looked and no file ever gets created. The printer Queue shows a file but it always pauses the queue and even after resume it does not create a PDF file

    Hi, I have this issue too.
    It looks like a sandbox issue : In the system log, I can read, just after trying to print something, with no file created (cups-pdf is intended to create a PDF file) :
    23/10/2014 18:30:20,797 sandboxd[13941]: ([15034]) sh(15034) deny file-read-data /

    (Full reports below)
    I tried to uninstall and re-install several times, changed configuration (where to create the PDF files), chmod 777 folders and executables, reseted PRAM and SMC… no effect. Did not made the permission check yet.

    I get a error message "To charge faster, use the cable and device that were provided with this phone" when charging my Samsung Galaxy note 3. I took it to a store last week and they said it has something to do with the last software update.  They tried charging it at the store and got the same message. I was given another phone, I still get the same error with the new phone.

    Wowuor, 
    Thank you so much for reaching to us today. I want to make sure that we get the device charging the correct way. There is no physical or liquid damage to the phone or to the power cord correct? Did this error just start to appear as of last week? Please keep us posted.

    Since the last software update for mountain lion, I am having a problem when trying to remove any screenshots to the trash. A box appears saying "Finder wants to make changes. Type your password to allow this"
    I have checked Finder Preferences and cannot find any box that I can 'UNTICK' to resolve this. I sometimes take a lot of screenshots when I am researching something and now find I have to enter my password for every screenshot to be removed to trash.

  • Has anyone had an issue with FindText not scrolling in Acrobat X?

    I wrote some code for Acrobat 8 using C# that used AcroAVDoc 's FindText method to search for a particular phrase so that I may find the page the text it was on and its location on the page so that I can insert an image at that location.  This worked great, the FindText method returned true when it found the text, scrolled to the page it was on and selected  the text.  In Acrobat X, I can not reproduce this.  It finds the text but does not scroll or select.
    Has anyone had this issue?  If so, how did you resolve it?
    Below is the code snippet that worked in Acrobat 8:
      try
                    Acrobat.CAcroApp app = new AcroApp();
                    Acrobat.CAcroAVDoc doc = new AcroAVDoc();
                    object jso;
                    app.Show();
                    //Open  For Searching
                    if (doc.Open(PdfDocument, ""))
                        Thread.Sleep(AcrobatDelay); //WaitForAcrobatToLoad
                        bool found = doc.FindText(SearchTerm, 0, 0, 0);
                        if (found)
                            CAcroAVPageView pv = doc.GetAVPageView();
                            int PageNum = pv.GetPageNum();
                            CAcroPDDoc pdDoc = (CAcroPDDoc)doc.GetPDDoc();
                            jso = pdDoc.GetJSObject();
    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • Has anyone having an issue with the iphone 6 signal cell strength on Verizon?

    Is anyone having an issue with the iPhone 6 signal on Verizon?

    I'm having the same issue as most of you on this forum. my current OS is 4.3.5 and after a factory reset, the camera started working fine, however, once i done the restore the camera reverted back to the same issue - "the shutter on the screen wont open, and the still/video switch just flashes" - what is more strange is, i have the HP home&biz app installed and this has a camera function and the camera seems to work fine with that, therefore suggesting there is nothing wrong with the hardware and this is a software issue. I'm currently awaiting a member of the Apple support team to call me about this, will keep you posted. BTW - someone suggested, going into Location Services and switching off the camera and apparantly, the issue was resolved for them, unfortunatly, this didn't work for me extremly odd issue indeed!

  • Has anyone had a problem with the spotlight search not working sometimes?

    Has anyone had a problem with their "spotlight search" not working? If I restart the phone it will work for a few days then not work again.

    It's more likely the OP's router.  I have a wifi only iPad 2, yet location services work just fine on my iPad.  If I open maps, my location is found quite nicely.  I have seen that some routers do not provide location services and I suspect the OP has such a router.
