Any help as i notice it has something to do with the usb but i cant tell which device. also it has been behaving the same in Mountain Lion as well. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
If you don't have a hub attached, then I suggest a visit to an Apple repair station. I don't have one and don't see any of those kinds of messages in any Console log.

She needs to purchase Snow Leopard but she can re download Lion on the desktop for free after Snow Leopard is installed.

Which thread currently running?
hi,
in my application i am facing out of memory error. I observed through 'windows task manager' that memory usage of the tomcat is continuosly increasing though the application is left idle. this usage is going up by 4kb per 5 sec.
I want to know which threads are running in the backgound causing this increase in the memory.
can we set some option in environemnt variables etc.??
please help.
~vishal.Hmmm,
You need this
http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/PsList.html
1. pslist.exe -x -d -m <pid>
repeat pslist
to tell u which thread is actually running (showing increased time).
Note the tid column.
2. Next, do a ctrl+break to get a thread dump. The tid in 1. will match that of nid. This will tell u which thread is running.
If u cant do a ctrl+break, u may need this http://www.latenighthacking.com/projects/2003/sendSignal/
Used in combo, this should tell u which thread is running. -

I have a Bootcamp partition on my Imac with Mavericks which I can't delete because the Partition Layout in Disk Utility is greyed out and is stuck on 'Current'. What can I do? I was trying to install Windows 8.1 but apparently, this is not yet possible.
I was originally able to restore to my original Mac OSX partition using Boot Camp Assistant but then after entering Disk Utility and re-RAIDing the default RAID 1 to RAID 0 in the BootCamp partition (I suspect this is the cause of the problem but why was it defaulted to RAID 1 in the first place?!!!!), forever afterwards, I couldn't restore the single OSX partition.
Whenever I used BootCamp Assistant my choice to 'Install or remove Windows 7 or later version' was greyed out. Finally I went to Disk Utility to repartition but the Macintosh HD and BootCamp disk partition functions were also greyed out (even if I started up from Recovery mode holding down option, command and 'R' and choosing Disk Utility). BootCamp Assistant gives the error message 'The startup disk cannot be partitioned or restored to a single partition' with additional small script 'The startup disk must be formatted as a single Mac OS Extended (Journaled) volume or already partitioned by Boot Camp Assistant for installing Windows', and DU gives the error message 'The full size of the Fusion drive is not available for repartitioning'.
What can I do to fix this problem? How can I make the Partition Layout button active in DU so I can change the partition to all OSX? I'm prepared to wipe off all my data etc to repartition and have backed up all to disk using Time Machine.My problem is fixed now, thank you. It was caused by my changing the Boot Camp partition's 'RAID1' to 'RAID0'. If I hadn't done that, Boot Camp would still have been able to 'restore' back to the one partition. It was fixed with the help of Applecare by using a terminal and typing a command to erase the IP of the Macintosh disk (not the volume) as well as the IP of the Bootcamp partition (if I remember correctly), but then I had to restore the OS and all my applications and data etc which I had previously backed up using Time Machine. I haven't taken note of the exact command terminology used. It would be wise to speak to Applecare about this if possible.
Two words of warning, 1. According to the cause of this problem, it might be wise, after reinstalling the ops system to reinstall all extra applications one by one, manually, in case a similar problem arises again. Then manually copy back all data. Or the Mac user could use the Time Machine backup and then uninstall all the added apps then re-install them one by one manually. 2. Beware as after all this the user might not have the 'Recovery partition'. There is a small recovery partition (a few 100 Mb is size) which comes with all later Macs. After all this is done this tiny partition might not be there anymore and the user might have to re-install Mavericks again to get it back, or just install the upcoming update of Mavericks due in a month or so. -
Kernel Panic, but I can still boot into windows? :(
Hi folks,
2007?'ish MBP 2.2
machine (normally) boots right in to SL (latest rev).
holding option, I can choose SL or Windows XP.
I have a firmware password set up (i know the password if i need it)
the problem: when i turn my mac on, it will not boot into Mac right away. I get an error that it's "unable to find driver for this platform: \ "ACPI\".\n"@/SourceCache/xnu/xnu-1486.2.11/iokit/Kernel/IOPlatformExpert.cpp.:1 389
there's more, but I won't type it just yet b/c I just thought of a possible reason:
I was reviewing photos with a client for a slideshow (everything is backed up..no worries) and she had a thumb drive with more photos. I plugged it in the USB, but it wouldn't read or open in finder.
No worries - I ran downstairs to my mac pro, it worked. Dragged the pics off.
Shut down my macbook pro b/c I wasn't using it and when I tried to turn it on later, this problem is there.
What I've tried:
resetting SMC
resetting PRAM
can't do the TDM - read the article about needing to install the software to open passwords, but hard to do if the computer is down (unless they mean installing it on the machine from which I'm trying to access it?)
i tried holding option to key in my firmware password, but the same thing happens - can't access the Mac side of things. I can access the Windows section and as I'm typing this, it looks like I'm able to access the install disc
Just thought I would post this for 2 reasons:
1. to see if there's anything else I can do (I am going to try disk utilities to repair the disc)
and 2. to help anyone else out in case they have the same issue.
Cheers,
KeeblerBackup what you can, boot from a compatible installer DVD, erase the hard drive, then reinstall OS X.
Alternatively, you can try the following:
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. -

Things You Can Do To Keep Your Computer From Slowing Down
If your computer seems to be running slower here are some things you can do:
Boot into Safe Mode then repair your hard drive and permissions:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions Pre-Lion
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. 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.
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.
Repair the Hard Drive - Lion
Boot from your Lion Recovery HD. 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, then click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
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.
Restart your computer normally and see if this has helped any. Next do some maintenance:
Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
For situations Disk Utility cannot handle the best third-party utility is Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible.
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger. These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or Lion and should not be installed.
OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems. For more about malware see Macintosh Virus Guide.
I would also recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX 2.4.3, or Cocktail 5.1.1 that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc.
For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. There is no confirmation that this version also works with Lion.
When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand.
Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Data Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. SyncTwoFolders
6. Synk Pro
7. Synk Standard
8. Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
Additional suggestions will be found in Mac maintenance Quick Assist.
Referenced software can be found at CNet Downloads or MacUpdate.
Additional Hints
Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
Add more RAM. If your computer has less than 2 GBs of RAM and you are using OS X Leopard or later, then you can do with more RAM. Snow Leopard and Lion work much better with 4 GBs of RAM than their system minimums. The more concurrent applications you tend to use the more RAM you should have.
Always maintain at least 15 GBs or 10% of your hard drive's capacity as free space, whichever is greater. OS X is frequently accessing your hard drive, so providing adequate free space will keep things from slowing down.
Check for applications that may be hogging the CPU:
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Often this problem occurs because of a corrupted cache or preferences file or an attempt to write to a corrupted log file. -

[SOLVED]Unable to boot into the kernel I compiled, kernel panic
I try to compile a kernel myself and boot into it, and I use virtualbox to test it. (arch guest inside my arch host) I first copy /proc/config.gz of my guest system to the linux source code directory, rename it to .config, and just compile it. After that I copy the image under arch/x86/bzImage to /boot directory, then I follow the instruction given by the arch wiki to create an entry in grub. Here is my /etc/grub.d/40-custom:
#!/bin/sh
exec tail -n +3 $0
menuentry 'Custom Entry' {
set root=(hd0,msdos1)
echo 'Loading Modified Linux'
linux /boot/vmlinuz-modified
echo 'Loading initial ramdisk ...'
initrd /boot/initramfs-linux.img
following is this command:
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
But after reboot I cannot boot into the new kernel, it shows "unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0):
https://img.vim-cn.com/e5/5227d8d4cc07c … ce81ee.png (choose "Advanced Option for Archlinux-> With Linux Modified")
https://img.vim-cn.com/a9/12869edfbbca1 … 649380.png (choose "Custom Entry" on the first page directly)
I have searched for a while but didn't find a solution. Is there anything I'm doing wrong, please?

I am referring to /proc/config.gz -- this is a gzip archive and needs to be decompressed before you can use it to compile your kernel image.
This isn't strictly true, it just makes the process easier because you're starting with a sane .config (assuming you're booted into one of Arch's official kernels at least). You can start from scratch, but you need to know what you're doing.
Frefreak wrote:Ok, I'll rebuild everything from the beginning later.
No need to rebuild everything, just generate an initramfs for the custom kernel. The initramfs contains modules that are specific to a the kernel image that they were generated for; this is probably why /boot/initramfs-linux.img isn't working for you. -
My 24" iMac takes 6 rimes longer to boot than my 20"
I have an early 25" iMac, 10.5.2 2.16, 2GB, 500HD. I takes nearly 6 minutes to boot up. I also have an older 20" iMac 10.5.2 2.0, 1GB, 250K with almost exactly same software, etc that boots in less than a minute. Why is the newer model so slow? I do have the 24" connected to 500GB USB for Time Machine.

Hi,
I'm not sure this will help but it's worth a try - leave your 24" on overnight go to the "Energy Saver" in Preference set the computer to "Never" Sleep and un-check the box at the bottom to keep the hard drive active. It's OK to put the "Display" to sleep. In the wee hours of the morning the Mac will run certain maintenance programs automatically that may help out your slow boot up. I have a 24"it boots from a cold start in about 30 seconds with several fire wire drives cascaded to the FW 800 port. Maybe you have tried this approach just thought I'd chime in.
Hope it helps,

Good advice Steve (and the Ancients).
Another option I have used in the past to handle system maintenance is MacJanitor, but it is not made specifically for Intel Macs, and can be buggy. I have found this alternative though, you may want to check it out rather than leave your iMac on 24hrs a day:

Hi. My iMac hard drive is running Mavericks. I have an old version of Quark Xpress (3.32) which won't run in Mavericks. Can I partition my hard drive and run an older system on one partition, so I can access my Quark? Is that possible?
Hi ancelau,
QuarkXPress 3 is a Classic Mac OS application, so you need a version of OS X that still supports Classic. I believe 10.4 was the last one.
So if you have an iMac that boots with 10.4, then yes that is possible. I doubt though that newer Macs boot with OS X 10.4.
So why don't you upgrade QuarkXPress 3 to a newer version? I am not just asking that because I want you to spend money with us.
Typically using software that was released almost 20 years ago is just feasible when you keep an environment that was current at the time of release or a few years after, so an older Mac with a operating system present at that time. 20 years in IT is a lot.
So my opinion is that on a new Mac with a brand new operating system you need to use something a bit more current.
How about QuarkXPress 9 (released 3 years ago) or QuarkXPress 10? You are better off with v9, as QuarkXPress 10 only opens v7 and higher (whereas QuarkXPress 9 opens v3.1 and higher).
Or - I am even happy to make an exception - upgrade to 9 and we give you 10 for free? Let me know please.
Thanks
Matthias
