How Do I Resolve Constant Kernal Panics?

I need help troubleshooting what is going on with my iMac. 
We've been getting sporatic KPs since about Oct. 22.  We have not been able to use our computer since yesterday, because looking at it the wrong way causes the black screen of death.  I've looked at the reports, and I cannot tell if it is software or if there is some hardware hookup that is causing the issue.  We installed Microsoft Office in September.  We have several devices that we hook up (all of them are unplugged, now) - our camera, iPod, and Kindle - all of which we have had for a while.  We have a backup HD that we use with Time Machine, that also has been a part of our set up for over two years.  The one thing I discovered today, is that the software had not been updated to 10.7.  Thinking that may be the cause, I rebooted in safe mode, downloaded the software and then restarted.  I got the message that the update could not be expanded and the download may be corrupted.  Add to all this: I had to restore my iTunes library from the Time Machine twice in the last two months.  There is a lot going on here.   I'm not looking for any magic solutions (although that would be nice), just maybe a few more things I should do and/or look at before resigning myself to spend the dough on computer repair (hate to do that if its not a hardware issue).
The first KP runs like this:

Ah, memory failed the Rember test twice.  They try to make the code intuitive, but I am not exactly sure what this means:

  • Brand new MBP Retina constant kernal panics

    I have a new MBP Retina with Mavericks 10.9.4 installed. I have received constant kernal panics since a few days into it. It seemed as though they were being cause by the io/logic boards, but those have both been replaced now. OS has been reinstalled multiple times to no avail. BSD and kernals blamed are all over the place (Dock, WindowsServer, mds; filesystems, AppleSMBusController, IOAcceleratorFamily)
    The latest kernal panic is as follows:

    I've got many more where that came from. I just don't want to post a wall of text.

    An update on my situation.
    I had my macbook pro replaced with a brand new one by Apple, which was brilliant customer service.
    Before giving back the old macbook, I decided to copy all my essential documents over to a usb stick. I also formatted my time machine external drive so it was blank.
    Rather than restore this new macbook using my time machine backup, I set it up as a new machine and copied just my documents from my usb stick. I then proceeded to carry out fresh installs of software I regularly use but nothing non-essential (namely Spotify, Firefox, Chrome, xCode, Adobe CS5, Squidman, MAMP and Office 2011).
    For three days everything worked beautifully - until last night when I had my first kernel panic on this machine. Nothing was running apart from firefox when this panic occured. The report is below and states the process which was running was 'plugin-container' which is part of firefox.
    Below is the log output:

    I'm running the latest OS X Mavericks - all updated to date.
    I've tested the thunderbolt display with a friends MacBook Air and I see no problems there.
    Any clues what is going on? Or it this latest Kernel Panic just a coincidence compared to my previous macbook?
    Thanks in advance!

  • How to resolve a Kernal Panic in Leopard

    I am pulling my hair out with my MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Laptop running with Leopard.
    3 weeks ago my laptop had a Kernal Panic. I made sure I had all my files backed up to my external drive which is a Western Digital My Book Essential Edition with 1 TB/TO of memory. At that time, I was using CS4 Photoshop, InDesign, Microsoft Word, Acrobat and Mail. I had large size photos saved on my hard drive and small movie clips so I removed them and only have my current work files saved on the hard drive and past work files saved on my external drive and any files I don't want to loose for sure burned to CDs. I was able to rule out that it is not a hardware issue by running Disk Utility from my OS disk. Then I uninstalled CS4 Design Premium. My laptop worked great for a couple of days without it. I then reinstalled CS4 and started having the Kernal Panics again. I thought Photoshop and InDesign was causing the problem. I decided to uninstall CS4 again then just install Dreamweaver and Fireworks because I needed to use them for a project. My laptop was working great for a couple of days then I had another Kernal Panic. Also, I noticed if I had my external drive plugged in it would slow down my computer so I only connect it when I am ready to back up my files for the day. So now I think I need to reinstall my OS. Below is today's Kernal Panic report. Can anyone help me interpret this and tell me what I am doing wrong/suggest solutions to resolve this? I am also thinking of upgrading my hard drive since it only has 160GB of memory and from what I read I need at least 120GB free to run Photoshop alone. Also upgrade the RAM...currently have 2GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM? Thanks.

  • Constant Kernal Panics

    I have a faithful iMac G4 that will now now longer boot up.
    Usually my computer is turned on constantly, occasionally every few weeks or so I restart it due to software updates or just because I hadn't done it for a while. All these problems started after I turned the computer off and unplugged it for an hour or so while some electrical work was done in the bathroom (new switch for the shower).
    The only other thing different about the machine is that about 4 months back we installed a new dvd burner as my superdrive had given up the ghost. An engineer friend who knows his stuff did it for me (with me watching, wincing as he pried apart my machine, It is my baby after all ) and all went fine.
    Now after turning the computer off for a few hours, I'm constantly getting Kernal panics during the boot up process, but in differing places. Sometimes it's while the grey apple is on screen, sometimes when the screen has gone blue just after. Once in a blue moon it actually loads the operating system only to kernal panic a minute or two later.
    So I booted into single user (after looking on the web) and ran fsck -f and it said there was a segmentation error, I then ran /sbin/fsck –fy after reading official apple support documents and looking around a bit more and found that this is apparently what your supposed to type (i'm not a command line guy) and it said all was ok. Each time I ran it it said the HD appears to be ok.
    So I booted up with the Tiger install dvd and it kept kernal panicing again and again (at this point i'm thinking - **** it it's going to be hardware related) finally the dvd booted and I ran disk utility to verify the disk and it said the HD was ok. I decided to do a repair permissions and then went to the bathroom (I was getting ready for work) only to come back to a kernal panic.
    I've reset pram multiple times, I've removed 3rd party RAM I had installed when I got the machine a few years ago. That I thought has fixed it until the next day it started Kernal panicing again.
    I ran the extended hardware check and there was no problems, I then ran the quick check and it got an error with text coming down the screen about memory address's (i think, I know I should have paid more attention) and the option to type reboot.
    So I did and tried again, this time I did the quick test first, and it passed, then I tried the extended and I got the same error.
    So I turned it all off, I booted up fine till it got to the desktop where it kernal paniced again.
    Now I did a pram resett during boot and when it gets to the grey apple I get a kernal panic and a screen full of text.
    So I booted the tiger install disk and wiped the HD (it was all backed up), Hoping that this would help...
    Nope I now have a completly blank HD and an iMac that will not install an operating system.
    It's just got to be hardware hasn't it? From things I've read it looks to be a logic board problem, any idea how much this would cost me to fix in the UK?
    So anyone have any idea's about what I can do?

    Hello, 
    Those don't sound like Kernel Panics to me. Here are some things to try:
    1. Reset the PRAM.
    2. Boot from your Tiger Install DVD. From the Menu Bar choose Disk Utility select Macintosh HD on the left hand pane and run Repair Disk and Repair Permissions. Try booting again.
    3. Try holding down the shift key after the start-up chime (or there abouts if you still don't have a chime). This boots the iMac in to safe-mode. Go into Apple Menu > System Preferences > Accounts and remove all the log-in items. If you've added any fonts recently remove those too.
    It's probably best if you start a new thread as this will attract more attention from the real experts.
    good luck and let us know how you get on.

  • Just upgraded to Leopard now I get constant kernal panics!

    I just upgraded my G4 PPC to 10.5.8. I can do things okay on my computer for a while then it does the kernal panic. All updates have been done except the prokit 5 one (I use logic and the last upgrade messed with it). Could this be causing the issue? Here is the info. I hope someone can help so I can start doing more recording!

    First, I would disconnect all peripherals except the original Apple keyboard and mouse. Boot the computer into safe mode if possible and do the following:
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your currently installed 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 Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    Now, you did not indicate if this upgrade to 10.5.8 was from an earlier version of Leopard or if you first upgraded to Leopard then to 10.5.8 using the combo updater. I'm assuming the former, so after you've done the above repairs reinstall the 10.5.8 Combo Updater. If you did not use a Combo Updater, then you can download it from support.apple.com/downloads/.
    If the above doesn't help then I would suggest reinstalling OS X as follows:
    How to Perform an Archive and Install
    An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
    1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    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 Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
    3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
    4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
    5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
    6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.
    And, if the above doesn't help start looking at the probability of bad RAM.

  • HELP: Constant Kernal Panics Macbook Pro 13inch (2010)!

    My MacBook Pro (13inch, 2010? version) has been having many Kernal Panics since June this year. Given that the Retina MBP will only be out in October onwards, can anyone suggest a way to allow my Macbook Pro to live beyond 2months? Any help from pros will be greatly appreicated!

    I don't know it's the problem, but your symptoms and panic log are demonstrative of the problem. See MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2010)- Intermittent black screen or loss of video for more information.
    It's the discrete GPU that causes the problems because it is defective. Using integrated graphics simply means you won't see the same graphics performance as you would normally see when the system would switch to the faster GPU. Don't try any high speed gaming.

  • How do I resolve a Kernel Panic

    I have an open case with Apple as I'm still covered under my AppleCare, but their offices are closed right now, so I wanted to see if I coud get some answers from the community.
    I have had roughly 6 kernel panics in the last month, only after upgrading to Mountain Lion. Over the phone with Apple, the advisor had me reinstall OS X using the recovery partition. We didn't erase data from the drive, just reinstalled the OS.
    I could only find two Kernel Panic logis in the console and they are below.

    Please let me know what the best next step would be. I'll call Apple tomorrow anyways, but some insight would be nice.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Thanks for the help.
    I don't know which software the first one is associated with
    I need the Telestream Audio Driver for Screenflow
    I don't know which software is associated with Soundflower
    I never installed SyncMate,
    I can get rid of Boom, but it doesn't have a default uninstaller
    I don't know what the sixth one is
    I can get rid of Hands Off! with it's default uninstaller
    I don't have a Blackberry device, so I never remeber intalling BB Desktop, how can I remove this?
    Thanks for the help

  • How do I fix a kernal panic on my mid 2012 macbook pro 13?

    My Macbook Pro mid 2012 OSX version 10.7.5 has been crashing at least 15 times a day for 3 days. I'm working in a 3rd World Country without any Apple stores for support, so I'm really, really stuck. Can anybodykindly give me some advise? I have recently updated to Itunes 11.01 and started using ICloud, I have also bought and downloaded a few Apps and books in the past week.The problem seems to happen when I am not typing - when it is in sleep mode/standby.
    I started running Norton for Macs yesterday and nothing comes up on the scans.
    Here is the crash report. Can any of you guys help me fix this, please?

    You can try reinstalling OS X. Turn Norton off or uninstall it first, then:
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

    Ever since I updated my MacBook Pro to 10.8 the computer has been crashing almost every hour. It is rediculus. Each time it crashes the BSD process name changes. I have tried multiple methods to remove programs such as littlesnitch which I had heard was a problem, but this did not work. The computer had not had a problem for 3 years until I updated it to 10.8. Is the new operating system broken this badly? Can someone please help me.

  • Kernal Panic in OS 10.6 Server

    I need help resolving a kernal panic in OS X Server on a MacPro. I disconnected all of my peripherals and restarted in hopes that it would clear with no luck. Now I am not sure what to do next. I have the original install disc but of course cannot get it into the computer. Apple support is closed. Any help will be appreciated.

    As an update, I did everything it said to do in the Apple publication including zapping my PRAM with no results.

  • Does Installing Windows XP stop Kernal Panics?

    i just baught a MBP 2.0 15 inch last week and had to send it in for repairs because of constant Kernal panics about ever 5-10 minutes after browsing the web using safari. The panics only occured after i started using wireless. I used the computer for about 20 hours, doing everything with it, before even connecting and it worked fine. I called apple and he told me to reinstall OSX, so i did, first an archive and install, next a complete erase and install. this did not work, as the problem persisted. Keep in mind that unlike many uses who have gotten kernal panics in login and startup screen, i have only gotten them when browsing on safari, and connecting through ituness, all wireless. Apple finally told me to send it in for repair. After reading extensivly on here, ive heard so many horror stories of people getting new mbp's and still having problems. I was just wondering it getting it repaired was a better choice, and if anyone will think they can acctually fix this problem. Let me know what u think about my issues. thanks
    -Ben

    Yes!! They are amazing. I had the same problem and they replaced my entire logic board so fast it made my head spin. The problem is now history and I'm a happy man. Nobody likes the hassle sending back a computer, but it is sometimes the only fix. A new logic board solved by problems. Let me say that a week later my battery died. They replaced that pronto, as well. I'm a bit of a sucker for trying the the "first" of any new product line, but I will admit that Apple has gone beyond the normal standard of customer support in fixing it. Give them a call and chill.

  • Kernal Panic Over and Over--repaired, checked yesterday, now again?

    Help!
    My computer had problems with display, track pad, not powering up, and lots of parts were replaced in January (MacBook Pro purchased 12.31.09).  Got it home, after a while constant kernal panics.  tried everything, brought it into Apple store yesterday, ran diagnostics, hard disk repaired, seemed OK.
    Shortly after I came home it happened again.  I repaired permissions, did verify disk, no problems with disk.  Updated software, including went to Java and Adobe and updated them.
    Nothing works.  Now the permissions note lots of problems with Remote Management (one of the updates from yesterday, 5.21) and Java (yesterday too).
    What to do?  Do I have to bring it back?  It's very hard to figure out.
    Lulu
    MacBook Pro OS X 10.6.8, would like to go to Lion but don't want to until my machine is stable

    Hi Lulu,
    I would bring it back to the Apple Store. There's obviously something wrong with it and it's their problem (given you just had it repaired), not your's. RAM is often the cause of KPs. Is this the original RAM or third-party that you added?

  • Kernal Panics never end !!!!

    I bought an intel iMac 20" intel core duo 2 ghz with 2 GB ram about 2 months ago.
    Immediately it worked awesome, no problems.
    The stoe engineer helped me setup bootcamp and do all the proper updates needed for it.
    I started to have lots of problems after installing windows it seemed. Was getting lots of kernal panics, but i thought it was due to a video editing app (handbrake or visualhub).
    I decided to do an erase and install, and did all the normal updates to 10.4.7 through software update.
    After that, I decided to absorb the windows partition, and make it whole again, and then installed windows on parallels desktop.
    i am now having tons of kernal panics again, but this time i realized that it is hapening at random times, even when all im doing is running safari.
    I also read that my build number should have an 'a' at the end of it for the proper build, so i upgraded again to 10.4.7 (second time) and now have the 'a' at end of it.
    BUT, it is still happening. Constant kernal panics every day, sometimes several a day.
    my setup for reference:
    20" iMac
    2 GHz intel core duo
    2 GB RAM
    TV as second monitor ALWAYS connected
    External Lacie 250 GB D2 extreme drive ALWAYS connected
    I have it running about 8 - 12 hours a day, with occaisional 24 hours straight.

    ok...heres an update:
    This morning i turned the computer on, and it showed grey apple screen, then the blue screen, then showed the "starting Mac OS X" dialog box, the blue status bar zipped across, and then the box dissapeared, and I was left with a blue screen and spinning loading symbol.
    After a min, it went to black screen and said something about imac.local darwin and had a prompt (like dos) and said login, so i type my username and hit return, and then it says password. Passowrd doesnt let me type.
    I tried several different scenarios, and tried nothing at all, but all result in same thing: goes back to blue screen with loading symbol spinning, then after a min returns to black screen.
    So, I went to the apple reseller and brought the computer.
    -they tried to start up and same thing happened.
    *They replaced the samsung 1GB sticks x2 with kingston 1GB sticks x2.
    -they tried to start up and same thing happened.
    -they tried safe mode and same thing happened
    -they tried firewire target mode and started up from another computer, but same thing happened.
    so i left the computer with them to look at today. i get it back in about 6 hours.
    what do you think it is?

  • TS3742 How do I resolve OS 10.8 kernal panics / crashes that occur most frequenly when waking up from sleep mode?

    I get a lot of gray screens of death on my MacBook Pro ever since I went to OS 10.8.  Never had issues with the 10.6 versions and now miss those days.  The kernal panics seem to occur most frequently just waking it up from sleep, regardless of where i am or what is attached to it.  I can't help but wonder if it is a problem with the video drivers under 10.8.x.
    I get these daily, so here is the log that gets sent to Apple, but I'm not really sure anyone looks at them.  Perhaps they would if other people experienced the problem too, but perhaps I'm in the vast minority.
