Kernal/Memory error? Virus?

So my mbp, ever since updating it two days ago, has gone from giving me random browser crashes to forced shutdowns to a point now where not one piece of software is usable and i must post from my phone.
At first it didnt scare me, as the last time i had force shutdowns all i'd needed to do was update adobe flash player. Now that didn't work, Spotlight needs to re-index everything, and sometimes the restart/shut down dialogue says at times BUTTON_SHUTDOWN and the like..
Ran apple hardware test and there is a problem with my memory. Do these symptoms demonstrate the validity of that? It was all so sudden i can't help but want to think it could be a virus or something...
And as a solution, do i just replace the RAM?

Hi xtrell,
If you've got bad RAM (or failing RAM) then there's no telling how the computer will respond or the errors that will occur. So yes, anything is possible with bad RAM. Probably the easiest way to identify the issue would be to replace the RAM or take one of the sticks out (run one, test the issue, then run the other, test the issue). RAM is not usually prone to failure so it would seem even less likely that both sticks failed at the same time. Unless there was an odd power surge that caused a significant electrical spike, even then it seems unlikely that just the RAM would fail at that point.
I don't think it's a virus, but I'd first address and identify the RAM issue. It may ultimately be something related to the recent update that you performed but you need to resolve the HW issue first before attempting to address a SW issue.

Kernal panic error

Been having problems with imac for weeks now, cutting off after using for a short period of time. Had sent it away to be repaired 3 times, first 2 times the logic board was replaced, the 3 time the logic board and power supply were replaced. Got it back today and instead of cutting off it is now displaying kernal panic errors after being on for approx 15 mins.
Here is the report that displays when turning it back on, can anyone help?

Aurora,
It appears you have Sophos antivirus software installed on your computer. This appears to be what is causing the KP. Because there are no viruses for OS X having antivirus software is not necessary, I'm guessing you may have come from a PC background and may be carrying the notion antivirus software is necessary for OS X too. Antivirus software frequently causes more issues than it solves as you are now seeing. Try following the manufacturers instructions for uninstalling, then uninstall, once you have removed it empty the trash. Next restart the computer in Safe Mode to clear some of the caches. Then restart normally and see how your computer performs.

Memory errors at Satellite P105-s6177

Hello all
I have Toshiba Satellite P105-s6177. It's been exhibiting classic symptoms of memory problems for months - I get random bsod's with reasons like MEMORY_MANAGEMENT, BAD_POOL_HEADER and a few others I can't quite recall, mostly something about a page fault in an unpaged area. it's been through multiple reformats to no avail. I ran the windows memory test and it said I had a RAM error within seconds of starting.
Recently I tried to reformat it from the backup discs that Toshiba provided with the computer, and the computer got a BSOD in the middle of the reformatting process. I've since tried a few more times, and get what Google tells me is a RAM error. I took out one piece of RAM, tried it, replaced the RAM and took out the other piece, tried it, and keep getting memory errors. I apologize as i don't recall the name of the specific error I keep getting, I will try to provide it as soon as possible.
Basically, i've narrowed it down to either both pieces of RAM being corrupted or a virus in the BIOS simulating a RAM error. Is there any way I can test for a virus in the BIOS? Currently I can't even get the computer to boot, it has no operating system installed on it due to the reformatting fiasco. The most I can do is bring up a command prompt.
Thanks for your time and attention.

Hi
> I ran the windows memory test and it said I had a RAM error
As you already posted in your first message everything looks like the RAM malfunction.
But these are only suggestions and in the forum nobody will be able to say exactly if this is really a memory issue without any detailed checks
So you will need to buy a supported RAM and would need to test it
Good luck

Out of Application Memory Error when Importing Library as Project

I have for years followed a practice of consolidating discrete event libraries (I create a new event-specific library for each event I shoot) into my main library at home.
Recently, though, I have been unable to import libraries as projects. The process begins, but ultimately grinds to a halt as I get an Out of Application Memory Error, invoking the Force Quit panel and telling me to quit some of my open programs in order to free memory to run the various open applications. (Aperture, of course, is "not responding").
In Activity Monitor, a process called kernal_task, is the culprit, taking up nearly 10 GB of my 16 GB memory; Aperture is second, using 1 to 2 GB in memory.
When I force quit Aperture, kernal-task quickly dissipates, eliminating all of the memory pressure.
I have no idea how to even begin addressing this.
I have the most recent version of Mavericks and Aperture running on an older 8-core Mac Pro.
Thanks for any insights or suggestions.

There is about 2TB of free space on the drive with the destination library.
And how much free disk space is on your System drive?
If repairing the libraries does not help, check your system for software, that might be leaking memory, probably incompatible plug-ins or older applications, preference panes, drivers that need updating,
If you find evidence of a precess leaking memory, ask in the Mavericks forum.
See this post by Linc Davis for how to check for memory leaks:

Low on memory error in PPCC

Never had a problem before. But just in the last two weeks, PPCC crashes with this low on memory error. The PC itself still runs like a speed demon on everything else but PPCC.
Checked for hard drive and cache issues, everything I could think of. It is not the PC. I may need to check settings on PPCC itself. Maybe something odd happened.
Anyone who is good at this stuff, your help would be appreciated.

Hi christene,
Are the whole 4GB RAM recognized in BIOS properly?
Theoretically it could be also a software issue of Windows. Maybe you have a virus on it and nobody knows how much programs you are start.
Have you tried a system restore to an earlier point?

Dreamweaver "low on memory" error (yes, again)

Hi all,
I'd like to re-open discussion on a problem that's been
highlighted on these forums a couple of times already:
Here...
...and
here...
...and
here.
...but as yet, no solution.
I have a new Dell Inspiron 9400 E1705 with 2GB of RAM running
Dreamweaver v8.0.2 that throws the error "Your system is low on
memory" (as shown in those other posts) when clearly I have a stack
of free memory.
I can make this error occur even when I'm running no other
apps. No other application gives me memory errors, including
Fireworks when it's stacked to the gills with big PNGs. Just
Dreamweaver, and, it seems, almost always when working on CSS
documents.
The other threads have been relatively exhaustive on what's
occurring, so I need not repeat much of it, but this error message
is annoying the hell out of me. After reading the other posts, I'm
fairly convinced this is a Dreamweaver bug.
What do you think?
I'd like not to get the standard plethora of "IS YOUR VIRUS
SOFTWARE DOING REALTIME PROTECTION" and "HAVE YOU GOT LOTS OF OTHER
THINGS OPEN" etc -- I've been using Dreamweaver for years and years
and I'm not a n00b, so I wouldn't be posting here if I didn't think
this was something bigger than just my PC.
I suspect, from reading the other threads, that there might
be a problem related to working on CSS files (particularly large
ones) combined with perhaps 2GB of RAM (because this .problem never
happened on my much lower-specced previous machine).
Would love to hear your thoughts, preferably constructive,
though humorous wouldn't go astray... ;-)
Cheers!

No answers but same problem... DW8, Dell Dimension 3100 with
2GB ram. I get
the same error, but my css files are not particularly long
nor my pages
large. Error usually seems to occur when uploading files.
Check of task
manager shows plenty of ram available.
Does not occur on my Compaq laptop with 1MB RAM running
MX2004, same sites.

Kernal panic error - Etrecheck report inside

So I just tried upgrading to Mountain Lion from Lion and got the dreaded kernal errors upon reboot. From reading these posts, it seems 3rd party software may be the problem.
I ran Etrecheck, but I can't decipher it enough to figure out where my problem lies.
Can someone walk me through the problem here, and how to rid it?

New log after deleting a bunch of programs and files. Still getting the kernal error. Going to wait until morning, and if I can't figure it out then, time for a clean wipe and install.

Kernal Panic Errors

Hey guys, I've got a bit of an issue.
I work at a computer repair shop, and none of us really have any knowledge of macs.
I'm getting kernal panic errors and random times, tested the RAM and HDD to no avail. Seems to happen when the computer wakes up from sleep, but not every time.
From what I see, looks like it might be graphics drivers, but not 100% sure.
I belive its the late 2011 model, running an i5 at 2.4, 4gb of ram, 13" screen.
Here's the error i'm getting, thanks for the help,
Cheers!

Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on diagnosing kernel panics.
The dependency indicates HD3000 which is the onchip GPU that is part of the CPU. I would guess the CPU has gone faulty, but that is purely a guess on my part. It certainly would seem there is a hardware failure.
I would start by booting it into Safe Mode and running a while. If it does not panic then restart normally. See if the panics now cease. If they don't, then reinstall OS X. See if that fixes the problem. If it does not then create new user account. Boot into the new account and see if the panics stop. If that also fails:
If the drive is intact try booting from the Recovery HD and see if it still panics. If it doesn't panic, then erase the Macintosh HD volume and do a fresh installation of OS X.
If none of this is helpful, then there's likely a hardware failure.

A FIX for error message: When I try to open Snood (it's a game) I get this message. Not enough memory {Error # :: 0, in sound.cp@line 101 Can you help?

After years of playing Snood, w/o problems, I started getting this error message, on my iMac, OS 10.5.8,
with 4 GB of memory when opening Snood: Not enough memory {Error # :: 0, in sound.cp@line 101
My MacBook Pro w. Mac OS 10.6.8 did not have this problem.
Initially I thought that Snood raised its minimum requirement to Mac OS 10.6.
I had several correspondences with Snood. Their tech support is great. Quick and thorough responses.
They thought the issue was in Mac's system preferences/ Sound. It was.
I didn't realize that my sound input and output devices were gone.
The fix was resetting the PRAM. I found this advice on MacFixIt.com.
MacFixIt help with volume: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-10415659-263.html
Resetting the PRAM is on Apple support: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
My sound (music!) is back, along with Snood. So glad I reset the PRAM before reinstalling the OS software!
Thank you to Snood, MacFixIt and Apple.
Happy new year all!

Good work, nice post/tip, thanks!

Acrobat XI Pro "Out of Memory" Error.

We just received a new Dell T7600 workstation (Win7, 64-bit, 64GB RAM, 8TB disk storage, and more processors than you can shake a stick at). We installed the Adobe CS6 Master Collection which had Acrobat Pro X. Each time we open a PDF of size greater than roughly 4MB, the program returns an "out of memory" error. After running updates, uninstalling and reinstalling (several times), I bought a copy of Acrobat XI Pro hoping this would solve the problem. Same problem still exists upon opening the larger PDFs. Our business depends on opening very large PDF files and we've paid for the Master Collection, so I'd rather not use an freeware PDF reader. Any help, thoughts, and/or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Chris

As mentioned, the TEMP folder is typically the problem. MS limits the size of this folder and you have 2 choices: 1. empty it or 2. increase the size limit. I am not positive this is the issue, but it does crop up at times. It does not matter how big your harddrive is, it is a matter of the amount of space that MS has allocated for virtual memory. I am surprised that there is an issue with 64GB of RAM, but MS is real good at letting you know you can't have it all for use because you might want to open up something else. That is why a lot of big packages turn off some of the limits of Windows or use Linux.

Acrobat XI Pro "Out of Memory" error after Office 2010 install

Good Afternoon,
We recently pushed Office 2010 to our users and are now getting reports of previous installs of Adobe Acrobat XI Pro no longer working but throwing "Out of Memory" errors.
We are in a Windows XP environment. All machines are HP 8440p/6930p/6910 with the same Service pack level (3) and all up to date on security patches.
All machines are running Office 2010 SP1.
All machines have 2GB or 4GB of RAM (Only 3.25GB recognized as we are a 32bit OS environment).
All machines have adequate free space (ranging from 50gb to 200gb of free space).
All machines are set to 4096mb initial page file size with 8192mb maximum page file size.
All machines with Acrobat XI Pro *DO NOT* have Reader XI installed alongside. If Reader is installed, it is Reader 10.1 or higher.
The following troubleshooting steps have been taken:
Verify page file size (4096mb - 8192mb).
Deleted local user and Windows temp files (%temp% and c:\WINDOWS\Temp both emptied).
Repair on Adobe Acrobat XI Pro install. No change.
Uninstall Acrobat Pro XI, reboot, re-install. No change.
Uninstall Acrobat Pro XI Pro along with *ALL* other Adobe applications presently installed (Flash Player, Air), delete all Adobe folders and files found in a full search of the C drive, delete all orphaned Registry entries for all Adobe products, re-empty all temp folders, reboot.
Re-install Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. No change.
Disable enhanced security in Acrobat XI Pro. No change.
Renamed Acrobat XI's plug_ins folder to plug_ins.old.
You *can* get Acrobat to open once this is done but when you attempt to edit a file or enter data into a form, you get the message, "The "Updater" plug-in has been removed. Please re-install Acrobat to continue viewing the current file."
A repair on the Office 2010 install and re-installing Office 2010 also had no effect.
At this point, short of re-imaging the machines (which is *not* an option), we are stumped.
We have not yet tried rolling back a user to Office 2007 as the upgrade initiative is enterprise-wide and rolling back would not be considered a solution.
Anyone have any ideas beyond what has been tried so far?

Memory Error Neo2 Pt 4*512 DDR 400 or even 333

Ok, this board has started giving me a lot of problems. 1 week ago all was fine, and suddenly I started getting BSODs. Last friday the computer shut off after a BSOD, while I was just browsing the internet.
Affter that it failed to start and gave a BSOD on every boot.
Then it started automatically again. And woked well.
On sat the system wont start and gave long beeps, indiicating memory error.
4*512 Ballistix default spd.
so I reset my BIOS, upgraded bios to 1.A ballistix edition, as syar suggested.
Computer ran well / rebooted well.
but when I did a cold start sunday morning I got long beeps again. Even resetting the BIOS did help. Got long beeps.
I took 1 module out and the system started well. went into the bios and manually set bus to 333 rather than 400, default spd timings.
Computer started well. I put the 4th module back in, and all worked well till I did a cold boot today, and back to continuos beeps.
Now the only way the computer works if I just use 2 memory modules.
I tried manual voltage, manual timings, spd timings, timings on crucial's site, voltage on crucials site. No luck.
currently i am on 2*512 dimm 1-2, default spd and voltage and system seems to work.
whats the prob ? Is my memory bad, which I am not too sure off, bcos I tried running 2 modules at a time from the 4 matched pair, and tey seem to work.
Only the all 4 wont work, and 3 in also gives problem.
is this motherboard messed up ?
bcos I am really thinking of switching to a diff platform as since day 1, less than 1 month ago, this mobo is giving me probs with X2 dual core.

https://mywebspace.wisc.edu/phora/web/cpuz.htm
Alright, I updated the BIOS to the latest beta, modded by side effect.
put back the 4 modules in, and they are running now
2-2-2-7 DDR 400 2.8V
though the HT is 3x unlike all previos times when it was 5x...anything to do with the probs ?
anyways, I still dont know how long this config will last, for I have has successful bootups in the past, but they end up failing later.

RoboHelp 9 gives an out of memory error and crashes when I try to import or link a Frame 10 file or

I have Tech Suite 3. If I start a new RoboHelp project and try to import or link Frame files, RoboHelp tries for a while, then I get an Out of Memory error and the program crashes.
I opened one of the sample projects and was able to link to one of my frame files without any problem, so it seems to be an issue with creating something new.
Any suggestions?

It happens when I create a new project and then try to import or link frame docs to make up the content. It starts scanning, then crashes. I did get it to the conversion setting page once, but no further.
It does not happen if I open one of the supplied example projects and link a file. But then it doesn't let me choose, during import, any style mapping. And I can't delete the sample project fold
Twice now it has told me when I tried to import (not link, but import) that my .fm file could not be opened, and told me to verify that Frame is installed (it is) and that the file is a valid frame file (it is).
The docs and project are in separate folders on my C: drive.

Low memory errors.

When I ty to play Destination Treasure Island I get a low memory error message. Is this bad? Could my iPad be bad? If I reboot the iPad it starts and lays but I haven't played for hours at a stretch yet either.
Should I be concerned?
Thanks.

Multi-tasking happens in 4.2, it's not something that can be switched on/off (which not everyone likes). The only thing that you can do is go into the task bar (double-click the home button) and close other apps manually (press and hold one of them until they start to shake, then press the '-' in their top left corenr; press home, or touch the non-taskbar part of the screen when finished closing them). The task bar shows recently used apps as well as those that are running, so even if an app appears there it doesn't necessarily mean that it is active.
