Kernel panic (cpu) when trying to install SL

Hi,
First I tried to partition my hdd in osx10.6 (standard seagate 500 gb) for a bootcamp windows installation. I did this before, but removed it. This time the installer told me I had to format the hdd first, reinstall SL and then partition again.
Tried to start a new installation by restarting the macbook, boot from (original) SL dvd. When I pressed C, all I got was this kernel panic (getting to it soon).
Formatted the hdd using the mbp from a friend (hdd in his laptop), installed SL, no problem. But once again in my mbp, the kernel panic appeared.
Next step: his ssd (crucial m4 64 gb, also SL) in my mbp, everything=fine! So my hdd=broken?
Bought a new hdd (1 TB WD), thinking that's the problem, but still getting the kernel panic.
The mbp is a 13", early 2011 i7. Upgraded memory before (to 8gb), worked fine. Swapped the original memory back, still the same problem.
Here's a photo (sorry for quality) of the panic: http://imgur.com/gUmVB
Don't have any warranty left, if you guys know of possible solutions or ways to find out what's wrong, your help is much appreciated.
Thanks.
Pascal

well, this scenario happened:
I put my hdd in friends (2009) mbp, formatted it, installed SL on it (retail disc). After I put it in my mbp, the kernel panic appeared, hopefully because of the incompatible SL version.
So, if I were to install SL (retail) on my hdd (via friends mbp), and updated to 10.6.8, would it be accepted by my mbp?
Thanks for your help so far!

Kernel panic, can't start with install disc or safe mode

Two days ago my 2008 Mac Pro got a green screen that froze up the entire system. After a few minutes I decided to force power down by holding the power button. Since then I receive a kernel panic every time I boot up in Mac OS.
I run bootcamp and I'm able to boot up Vista 32 bit okay. After the system went down my video card, NVidia 8800GT, was no longer being loaded in Windows due to and error (43). I tried installing old drivers, new drivers, and today I finally bought a new video card, NVidia GTX 285 Mac. The new card works great in Windows, but I'm still unable to load up Mac OS.
I've tried resetting the PRAM. I've also tried booting up off of the 10.5 install disc to try a fresh install, but I get kernel panics even when I do that. I connected the Mac to another Mac using target disc mode and using Verify Disk it detected no errors. I used the Apple Hardware Test and again the Mac detected no problems. I've reseated the RAM in the cpu and disconnected all usb and firewire devices. I've called Apple support and they told me to do all of these things I just mentioned. After all of that I even tried erasing the Mac HD partion of the hard drive thinking that it might erase a problematic file or at least let me do an install on a fresh drive (thankfully I made an exteral backup of all my Mac files when I had it in target disk mode). I'm at a loss of what else to try other than taking it into a mechanic. Has anyone experienced this before or have any ideas?

Your OS X system sounds hosed. However, getting a kernel panic trying to start from an installer disc is usually a good sign of hardware failure. If you aren't using the original installer disc that came with the computer, then that could be a problem - wrong version for the machine. Or the installer disc itself is defective.
If your Boot Camp partition is on a different drive, then I'd suspect the hard drive but you believe it's OK. This could be a problem with RAM. However, I would look for another suitable installer disc you can try that boots the same version of OS X that was installed originally on your machine.

Lion Kernel Panics - will an erase and install help?

Since upgrading to Lion and iCloud I have been experiencing kernel panics on my Macmini. I'm currently troubleshooting and believe I have concluded that the my USB or Firewire attached drives (a WD My Book 2TB and a Drobo 2G respectively) are not the cause (because the kernal panics still happen when these are disconnected and not powered on). I am discounting that RAM is issue for now, because this hasn't changed since I bought the Mini in 2010.
So my investigations are focusing on software - I've already uninstalled several apps which I have read may cause issues (Logmein and WD RAID manager). I have also tried using Lion Cache Cleaner (LCC) but this in itself seems to be causing kernel panics, particulalry when using Clam AV to virus check the home and download directories. I've experienced 2 kernal panics using LCC (always at the Clam AV step) so I've given up on that.
I've tried looking at the panic logs but I can't interpret them, so I'm thinking my last option is to completely wipe my Mini hard drive and do a fresh install of Lion and rebuild my system from the ground up. Given the lack of success with my troubleshooting, and the fact that I installed Lion on top of Snow Leopard in the first instance, leads me to believe this is the safest option.
Is this the best approach or is there anything else I should try first? I have a clone and my data is backed up.

So out of the three issues I did the following:
com.DataRobotics.driver.iSCSIInitiator - I followed a procedure provided by Drobo support to completely erase and then reinstall the latest Lion Drobo Dashboard
com.Logitech.Control Centre.HID Driver - I ugraded to the latest Lion version
com.iospirit.driver.rbiokithelper - I couldn't actually find this in the location expected (~/Library/Preferences/) or anywhere else in my library for that matter. I think it was an app I must have deleted some time ago (Remote Buddy). So I downloaded the latest version of Remote Buddy for Lion, thinking that I could install and then unistall that to remove the driver. However, I did find the following kext which I removed (/System/Library/Extensions/RBIOKitHelper.kext)
I decided this was enough so I retested everything by running a complete TimeMachine backup. Unfortunately I got another kernel panic this morning. From the log below it looks like the Logitech driver has updated. The datarobitics (Drobo) driver looks the same but I'm assuming this is ok for now as I completely reinstalled it, so that leaves me with com.iospirit.driver.rbiokithelper as the culprit. I've just got to find the d*mn thing to delete it!! When I do I'll try a backup again, and failing that, erase and install Lion.
Obviously I can't really interpret the error log, but is there anything else which may be causing the issue?

Fatal error when trying to install AIR app on OSX

A user of my application is getting a fatal error when trying to install on OSX. Most installs seem to go fine so I was surprised at this one.
A portion of the OSX error report is below. Has anybody experienced anything similar? If so, were you able to identify the core problem?
Thanks in advance for any thoughts!

Could you post or send me ([email protected]) the entire crash log? I'll at least need the binaries section so I can properly symbolicate the log.

When trying to install update 10.5 it says the download has invalid signature and won't install. I run XP

when trying to install update 10.5 it says the download has invalid signature and won't install. I run XP

I'm having similar problems with 10.5. I managed to install it but when I try to run itunes it doesn't open correctly and when I view my account the screen is not presented in the correct format. When I try to search for music it finds nothing. So I ran the diagnostics option but this came back with an error ' secure link to itunes failed'. It also said that the internet connection was verified but when I went into the help option it said I wasn't connected to the internet but as you can see I was and am. I've now uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times, each time I uninstall I've followed the correct sequence as recommended:-
1. Itunes
2. Quicktime
3. Apple software update
4. Apple mobile device support
5. Bonjour
6. Apple application support
I've noticed now that 'quicktime' didn't get reinstalled, not sure if that's the problem. Also when I rebooted after the last Uninstall I received a new error message ' Applesyncnotifier.exe - unable to locate component'. I've also noticed that my CPU is running at 50% according to task manager when I've got apple loaded, but it goes down to less than 20% when it's uninstalled and even goes down to 0%. Clearly, there are a number of people with similar issues and Apple need to sort it quickly.

Keep getting kernel panic even when everything is updated

My MacPro keeps having kernel panic (4x in a week, then none in almost 2 weeks, then comes back again today) even when everything is updated. And I recognize that I always get the kernel panic only when I visit this one website where I usually go to stream an online movie. What could be wrong with my Mac? Is there a way to stop and/or prevent future kernel panic attack?

Safe Mode
Starting up into Safe Mode does several things:
It forces a directory check of the startup volume.
It loads only required kernel extensions (some of the items in /System/Library/Extensions).
In Mac OS X v10.3.9 or earlier, Safe Mode runs only Apple-installed startup items (such items may be installed either in /Library/StartupItems or in /System/Library/StartupItems; these are different than user-selected account login items).
It disables all fonts other than those in /System/Library/Fonts (Mac OS X v10.4 or later).
It moves to the Trash all font caches normally stored in /Library/Caches/com.apple.ATS/(uid)/ , where (uid) is a user ID number such as 501 (Mac OS X v10.4 or later).
It disables all startup items and login items (Mac OS X v10.4 or later).
Mac OS X v10.5.6 or later: A Safe Boot deletes the dynamic loader shared cache at (/var/db/dyld/). A cache with issues may cause a blue screen on startup, particularly after a Software Update. Restarting normally recreates this cache.
Taken together, these changes can help resolve software or directory issues that may exist on the startup volume.
Try Repair Disk.

Kernel panic happend when runing ppt

Hello, all,
I re installed Mac OSX the day before yesterday, a kernel panic occured when I playing a presentation with Powerpoint. Has anyone experienced such problem, what should I do to avoid?
Thank you.
Junxing

what should I do to avoid?
Don't use powerpoint!
Could be something to do with the OS reinstall. Try reinstalling Office (or just powerpoint. Don't forget to run crons and repair disk permissions before installing. This will cleanup your HD.

Error Messages when trying to install, uninstall or run iTunes 9

I get the following error message when trying to Install iTunes:
The path C:\DOCUME~1\Frank\LOCALS~1\Temp\IXP206.TMP\iTunes.msi cannot be found. Verify that you have access to this location and try again, or try to find the installation package 'iTunes.msi' in a folder from which you can install the product iTunes.
I search my entire computer for the file but it's not there.
Then, when I try to uninstall the iTunes and start the install from scratch I get another error:
"The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable"
Catch-22, I can't install or uninstall and when I try to run iTunes I get:
"The action is only valid for products that are installed"
Very frustrating but I'm stumped and I don't know how to proceed. Any help would be very much appreciated.

wooooooooo!!! got it working again!! having spent the last 6 hours..no joke six f*cking hours trying to sort it ive finally got iTunes back!!
ok here is what you need to do:
go to the link below and download the Microsoft Windows Installer CleanUp Facility.
http://www.locksleynet.com/2009/06/09/missing-itunesmsi-problem-resolved/
once you have downloaded it, install it and run it from the start menu. once its up and running remove everything to do with iTunes (so iTunes itself, quicktime, bonjour......the lot). Dont worry about removing iTunes completely, all the music is still there when it works again trust me!!
ok once you have removed everything restart your computer, im not sure if this is a must but i did it.
next download quicktime from the apple website (go to the 'downloads' tab near the top. download and install quicktime and restart your computer so the new settings are put in to place ( i think it asks you to restart anyway).
go back to the apple website, 'downloads' tab and download iTunes itself. install that bad boy and you will be up and running with all your library intact!
Hope it works for you mate!

How to resolve message "Installer database is corrupt" when trying to install CS4 on Win 8.1?

I purchased a disk set of CS4 a few years back and have recently purchased a new computer. When trying to install CS4 on the new computer, I received an error message saying "Installer database is corrupt. Please contact Adobe Customer support." Called "customer support" and after a VERY long time and three transfers, I was told "Too bad, we can't help you. Maybe download a new copy?" So I did. When trying to install the fresh download, I received the exact same error message: "Installer database is corrupt. Please contact Adobe Customer support." This appears to be a conflict between the CS4 installer database and Win 8.1. Is this a known issue? How do I resolve it? Thanks for any assistance. ~Evey

Error message when trying to install Flash 10.0.45.2

I am running IE 7 on windows XP. We had some issues with Flash active active control version 10.1.53.64 and higher so I unistalled 10.1.53.64 and downloaded the older version (10.0.45.2) from the adobe website but when I try to install it I get the following error "The version of Adobe Flash Player that are trying to install is not the most current version. Please visit http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer to obtain the latest more secure version". I am however able to install version 9.0.289.0
Is there any particular reason that i cannot install 10.0.
The reason that I don't want to use 10.1 is because it has a bug that affects the working of my application and the audio some times does not play.
Thanks

Thanks for the information. I downloaded the Active X from the link you provided but I am still getting the same error message

Subject: Error message when trying to install Flash 10.0.45.2
If I remember correctly, there were two different installers for 10.0.45.2: one that did the checking for a newer version, and one that did not.
The forum search is currently disabled, and I cannot find the topics that were discussed at the time.
However, I still have the installers for the non-check version available for download on my servers:

to make 320MB partition "system" and the rest of the partition to Windows 8.1 "28.8 GB"
Like what happen in the VirtualBox
Or what i should do ?

Getting "setup.exe has stopped working" message when trying to install labview 2011 or 2012 on a windows 7 machine

I am getting a "setup.exe has stopped working" message when trying to install labview 2011 or 2012 on a windows 7 machine. I already tried running setup.exe as an administrator with the same results. I have Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.1 installed on the affected machine. Could this be the cause of this issue? Or does someone know the root cause of such error?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi - are you getting it at the start of installation, during or after 100% progress has finished?
Is it just LabVIEW you're installing, or is it drivers too, in which case, what was the last large package that was installing at the time?
This could be caused by the NVIDIA chipset driver :
