Keep getting crashes with EXC_BAD_ACCESS - tried everything
Dear BB'ers,
Having tried everything I have seen in the BB's and I need advice on what to do next. I keep getting application crashes with the following log entry:
Exception: EXCBADACCESS (0x0001)
Codes: KERNINVALIDADDRESS (0x0001) at 0x0bbbe000
(Toast 7, iViewMedia Pro, CD spin Doctor, DVD player, Eudora, Finder, Firefox.....) OSX 10.4.8
The problem was intermittent but seems to be getting worse. I can induce a consistent crash with Toast when creating a DVD from DivX files and have used this as a diagnosis.
I have tried:
1. Techtools pro - no probs reported with memory
2. memetest - run in safe mode to access max memory - no probs reported
3. Booted from another HD with a clean version of the OSX (Still 10.4.8) to make sure it was not the system - Toast (different example of the software) still crashed.
4. Removed half the memory - still crashes
5. Swapped with the other memory chips to run on that other half - still crashes
6. Verified the discs with Disk Utility
Any ideas as to what might be the cause and what else I can try...?
Thanks,
Dave
Hi, David.
See my "Multiple applications quit unexpectedly or fail to launch" FAQ for advice on troubleshooting this issue.
This is usually a software, rather than hardware, issue.
Good luck!

I keep getting an error when trying to download a tv series right on my iPad from the iTunes store. I am able to download on my laptop then synchronize but it's a hassle specially if my laptop is not with me. All other Apps seem to be working fine. Help!
If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem. -

I keep getting an error while trying to reinstall itunes?
I am trying to reinstall itunes and i am having an issue. I keep getting an error while trying to install and I keep getting very far but I always seem to end up with this.
"Could not open key
UNKNOWN\Components\DA42BC89BF25F5BD0AF…
\b25099274a207264182f8181add555d0.
Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel"
I was attempting to reinstall due to an error message appearing when I opened itunes
"Itunes requires a newer version of Apple Mobile Device Support Please uninstall
both Apple Mobile Device Support and iTunes, then install iTunes again."
I have tried a few solutions and for the first error when installing one was an attempt at editing a registry file which I do not think succeeded because I am running windows 8 and was being directed for windows 7."Could not open key
UNKNOWN\Components\DA42BC89BF25F5BD0AF…
\b25099274a207264182f8181add555d0.

I have Windows 8.1 installed on my Macbook Pro Retina (Late 2013) and it keeps on crashing with a WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR BSOD error. Is this an issue with the bootcamp driver not compatible with Windows 8.1? or is there something I can do to fix this.
I also keep getting WHEA-Logger Event-ID 19 warning events in the Windows Event Logs with the following details.
A corrected hardware error has occurred.
Reported by component: Processor Core
Error Source: Corrected Machine Check
Error Type: Cache Hierarchy Error
Processor APIC ID: 3
The details view of this entry contains further information.likely win8.1 dont have official bootcamp support yet
1/3 of my logins into win8.1 result in a fatal bluescreen
was the same deal when I installed win8 before official support
and when the drivers with official support was released the issue went away -
hi!!!! I keep getting an "error" when trying to activate my iTunes match. I get to the 1st step, then it gets stopped, and I get the error message. HELP!!!!!!
That's definitely enough to start.
It sure seems like it should work...and then I saw that you're using a router. It could very well be that the router is the weak link here.
Instead connecting to your network router, try using a direct USB connection from your MBP. If that doesn't work, you read this post, which may be relevant to your problem:

Check for hardware issues
Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
