Kernel Panic on MBP Message: You need to restart your computer...
Hi All, Just received the black box message on my Macbook Pro. I've read the other threads regarding these types of messages. So i've already copied the report, Can someone please help me to clarify why this message suddenly appeared. Was just working on Outlook. All work emails so nothing was running out of the ordinary. Thanks in advance for any help:

hi French, thanks for the input here. Mac ran for a week and half without any issues. Problem only happens when using 3G internet USB device as explained below.
My Mac has now for the 2nd time given me the restart message, couple of minutes ago. The only mobile device connected to this is a 3G Vodacom internet USB stick. I'm using 2 different service provide mobile broadband connection managers software installed at the same time. I think this is what is causing the issue. I'm going to uninstall one of them and see how it goes. Unfortunately our internet service providers don't own up to any software/hardware related issues towards there items, so its left to yourself to figure out what to do.. so frustrating. Will send updated message again soon. Cheers

Keep getting message - You need to restart your computer - iMac freezes
My iMac freezes without notice, a dark screen comes over the monitor and the message "you need to restart your computer" appears.
This happens randomly and I have no idea what causes this. I thought perhaps it was just a loose power cord, as the cord does seem quite loose.
However, it happens after the machine has been running for some time. Before I have a chance to save my work, the computer tells me it has to shut down. It's not a consistent thing, so it's hard to know if it's the cord or not.
This also happened half way through watching a DVD. Nothing was touched or moved, so it wouldn't appear that this is being caused by a loose cord.
Can anyone shed some light on this problem? (I'm running Tiger on this machine with 700+ megs of RAM plus am using a Mac keyboard. Airport is installed but not in use.Hi there,
I would first make sure your Mac is or isn't on any list contained here: http://www.apple.com/support/exchange_repair/imac.html - you may in fact have a faulty power supply which is covered by repair extension through Apple.

Good luck, Rick
iMac G5 iSight 20" - 30G iPOD in Slimming Black - Mac OS X (10.4.8) - HP Pav 15" WS and Toshiba Sat 17" WS LP's - Canon 20D & A620 Kodak P880 -
IMac G4 Freezes - Get message - You need to restart your computer.
I just posted this question in the G5 forum, I think. The Mac I am using is a G4 - the round 'lamp base' model' - so I will repost the question here.
My iMac freezes without notice, a dark screen comes over the monitor and the message "you need to restart your computer" appears.
This happens randomly and I have no idea what causes this. I thought perhaps it was just a loose power cord, as the cord does seem quite loose.
However, it happens after the machine has been running for some time. Before I have a chance to save my work, the computer tells me it has to shut down. It's not a consistent thing, so it's hard to know if it's the cord or not.
This also happened half way through watching a DVD. Nothing was touched or moved, so it wouldn't appear that this is being caused by a loose cord.
Can anyone shed some light on this problem? (I'm running Tiger on this machine with 700+ megs of RAM plus am using a Mac keyboard. Airport is installed but not in use.
I ran a Hardware Test on it and everything passed. I also completely reloaded all the software, erased the hard drive and did a complete reinstall, and the problem persists. It really is a nuisance and I have no idea what else to try.Hi AnnieGrace,
Sorry to hear of your woes. You are suffering from Kernel Panics (link) which could be caused by defective RAM, dodgy USB drivers or a software corruption etc etc.
I would advise disconnecting all external devices (except an Apple mouse and keyboard), removing any 3rd party RAM you've installed and the Airport card if you have one.
The best thing to do then is work though Dr Smoke's Kernel Panic Resolution Guide (link).
Do let us know how you get on. When I suffered them it was down to cheap RAM; other AD users have reported that old keyboards caused their problem.

Hi, just now my computer just popped out an error message saying that "You need to restart your computer". I was able to power the iMac back (and i'm typing from my iMac). I did some research about it and it has something to do with the kernel panic..either hardware or software. Since i was able to power back my iMac, i supposed it was software-related problem? Here's the log from /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/
I'm sorry it was quite long and i have no idea how to attach the text file which i have saved. What could be the problem here? And any suggestions to avoid this from happening again? My heart skipped a beat just now.. Hopefully it was no something serious such as hardware problems..
thank you!

Allan -
I bought a brand spankin' new MBPro recently and now I'm getting intermittent crashing. 2.2 Ghz Intel Core i&, OS X 10.6.8. I thought maybe it was a bum copy of MS Office I'd installed but today it crashed in Mail (v4.5). The machine is also very slow when working in Word and Excel...but I suspect that's a software problem. Any suggestions?
Well, that didn't take long. Crashed agin. I was in Mail (v4.5) with no external drives plugged in. What was/is plugged in is power cord, ethernet cord, iPhone, powered USB hub (HP printer, 3M mouse, MS ergo keyboard).
Additional help would be greatly appreciated!

IMac G3 Kernel Panic - You need to restart your computer - HELP
I have an iMac G3 400Mhz slot-loading with 256MB 13GB running Mac OS 10.3.3. It was all along running Ok until I tried to do an OS updating recently. After update done, re-boot and I got this cyclic message "You need to restart your computer". Tried all methods like pressing CtrlOption+PR or Option during power-up but still the same. Now at a loss as I also cannot find my OS media installation CD anymore. Can anyone suggest how to remedy this? Worse case scenario, I don't mind clean re-load OS but need help in getting a copy of the Mac OS installation media.
Welcome To Discussions KevK!
How much space is available on the 13 GB Hard Drive?
What peripherals do you have connected to the iBook?
Are there any programs or applications, that are set to load at Startup?
You may find use helpful tips in this document Resolving Kernel Panics, authored by Dr Smoke.
As the iMac G3 400 MHZ's, original pre-installed OS was Mac OS 8.6, the original system discs, will not be much help.
You will need to purchase a new set of Panther discs, or a newer version of OS X, if you wish to upgrade.
With a larger Hard Drive, and additional RAM, that iMac, is capable of running Tiger 10.4.x.
Tiger is available for purchase at The Apple Store (U.S.).
Panther, is no longer available directly from the Apple Online Store, as Leopard 10.5.x, is the most up to date OS.
But, if you know what to look for, a Full Retail Version, of the Panther Install CDs, or a Full Retail Version, of the Tiger Install DVD, can be purchased, sometimes less expensively, at some online Apple retailers, Amazon, eBay, FastMac, HardCore Mac, AllMac, etc.
Be sure not to purchase grey, upgrade or machine specific CDs or DVDs.
Panther is only on CDs, not DVDs.
The discs should look exactly like the images in the above links, and not say Upgrade, CPU Drop-in DVD, or "This software is part of a hardware bundle purchase - not to be sold seperately." on them.

Once Panther 10.3.x is re-installed, you can use the 10.3.9 Combo Update, to upgrade to the final version.
If your Mac meets the Tiger System Requirements, you could also consider installing that, and then use the PPC 10.4.11 Combo Update, to upgrade to the current version.
Additionally, Tiger 10.4.x ships on a DVD, so if your Mac doesn’t have a built-in DVD-ROM player, you will have to use an alternative method of installation.

It looks like what I understand to be a kernel conflict or something. Something to do with multiple applications causing an unresolved task. I have also read that it might be due to loose RAM. Are there any suggestions?Here's more if you need it;

"You need to restart your computer" message keeps appearing
After am done with my computing session, and try to shut down my computer often times, this being the 7th, the machine will not shut down but instead it will display the message "You need to restart your computer...". After i do the restart, a message appears says something like: Mac OS X failed unexpectedly. The problem is that the OS has not failed unexpectedly; i tell it to shut down but it doesn't. Would anybody have a clue as to what is causing this problem?
Notes:
No non-native software has been installed
Have not renamed system folders
Thanks guys!Please help me interpret my panic.logs.

Help with Kernal Panic; "You need to restart your computer..." on startup
My sister just gave me her old iBook G4. I don't know what OS it is running and I don't know the exact model beyond iBook G4. She is currently looking for the disks that came with it.
Everytime I try to start the computer, before I get past the screen with the apple, the screen goes grey and I get the following message:
"You need to restart your computer. Hold down the Power button for several seconds or press the Restart button."
Are there any diagnostics I can run without the discs that came with the computer? What should my first steps be? Is there any way to tell what OS or hardware I'm using without being able to boot up?
Thanks,
BrettHi Brett and welcome to Apple Discussions.
You could try Starting up in Safe Mode
What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode
Safe Boot takes longer than normal startup
Safe boot may by-pass the problematic process/hardware (the airport card is a frequent culprit) and enable you to boot sufficiently to find out the OS. Click on the blue Apple top/left, then 'About this Mac'. If Safe Boot is successful take a look at Macintosh HD/Library/Logs, particularly Console and Panic. I'm no expert on deciphering logs but you could copy/past the last couple of paragraphs of Panic into a reply.
Good luck,
Adrian -
"You need to restart your computer. Hold down the power button for seve..."
Hello,
I have recently been getting this same message "You need to restart your computer. Hold down the power button for several seconds or press the Restart button." whenever I start up my computer. It happens about 95% of the time. I have been reading on different forums that I should reset the PRam and the NVRam and I have been doing so and it does help as it does EVENTUALLY start up (sometimes takes me 5-10 min. to get it to start up).
I have also read that it may be the RAM that is loose, so I did check that and made sure that the ram is properly placed (which it is).
I don't know what else I can do. Should I reformat and reinstall Mac OS X?
Here is the exact error form the dump:
IOAPIC: Version 0x20 Vectors 64:87
AppleACPIPlatformExpert::start failed
panic(cpu 0 caller 0x55c095): "Unable to find driver for this platform: \"Macbook 2,1\".\n"@/SourceCache/xnu/xnu-1504.9.26/iokit/Kernel/IOPlatformExpert.cpp:1389
Debugger called: <panic>Well just got around to installing the new HDD and RAM yesterday, and I am sad to say... that the problem persists. :/
I reseated the memory and made sure they were in there properly, and I also installed the HDD and ran DiskUtility before I erased/reformatted and installed a fresh version of MacOSX Leopard, then updated to Snow Leopard.
As long as I am using my computer everything works fine, the problem occurs when the machine is shut off or put to sleep for a long period of time. Because when I shut it off and turn it right back on a few minutes later it works, or if I shut the lid and open it 10-20 min. later everything works fine, it's only when the machine is off or asleep for long periods of time.
So, I do not know what else can be wrong.
Should I try to take out the old RAM and just leave the new module in and see if that works out? See if that specific module is faulty? -
My Imac says "you need to restart your computer" after logging out and click on sleep. 10.6.8?
My Imac recently gives a message "you need to restart your computer" after logging out and clicking "sleep". After a few seconds, gray screeen will roll down and give that messasge. I disconnected USB cable from my printer. Today, after turning it on, the log in screen showed then after 2 seconds the gray screen rolled down again and prompted "you need to restart the computer". I've read the apple communities about kernel panics but to no success. I have a 10.6.8, 2.7 ghz, 4GB. This is the error that showed which I reported to apple mutiple times already.

What is going on with this error?It hasn't been acting up since I:
1) Since I unplug my all in one printer with wifi (Hewlett Packard). I barely use the printer and it keeps cleaning out the jets and wasting my **** ink. Plus it'll do a loud self test @ 3:00 in the morning & by this time, I pulled my baseball bat from under the bed and ready to smash some skulls in the office room thinking its a burglar.
But seriously it stop doing it.
This is a late reply but confirmed after 7 months.
Note: I shut down instead of sleep my Imac now because I hardly use it. -
" You need to restart your computer, hold down...."
My daughters iBook G4 1.33MHz Power Pc running 10.4.11
She keeps getting the blackscreen message " You need to restart your computer, Hold down.....etc. " This has been done several times but returns about 10 minutes later. Keen to save the computer if possible, so I would be grateful for any advice.
Thank you
MikeMike:
Your daughter's computer is having what is called a kernel panic. This can be either hardware or software based, although, more often hardware than software. RAM is one of the most frequent offenders followed by the Airport Express card. If you have installed additional RAM, remove the module you installed and boot without it and see if the KP returns. You can do the same with the Airport card. There are other possibilities, but that's where I would begin. Dr. Smoke's FAQ Resolving Kernel Panics has more information and troubleshooting tips. After you have checked these out please do post back with further questions or comments.

You need to restart your computer ...
Hi,
Just started getting the message, You need to restart your computer ...
The mac constantly crashes at startup, it even crashes from CD start-up.
I have;
1-reset nvram
2-changed battery
3-zapped pram
4-changed ram
5-changed video card
6-removed everything except power cable
7-removed battery, unplugged for several hours, tried to re-boot
8-tried to boot to safe mode, but holding shift does not seem to work, although I use a swedish keyboard, and some of the comMands are in different places (anyone know where the shift command is, on a Swedish keyboard)
9-screamed, shouted!
All with the same results.
The mac powers up, fans work. the red light is on the motherboard, but it just cannot boot (except for a couple of times, but then froze after several minutes).
If it gets to the blue screen it is usually the , 'You need to restart...' message, but I have also had 'System failure: CPU=01, 00000001 (corrupt stack) plus a few variations on this message.
A few of the crashes have lines of code/test covering the screen ending in 'we are hanging here'.
I am thinking it must be the CPU?, as the mac powers up, and does try to start.
As you will see from my info, the CPU is a 1.47 MHz upgrade.
I hope someone can help, cheers.Hi,
I use a swedish keyboard, and some of the comMands are in different places (anyone know where the shift command is, on a Swedish keyboard)
Looks like both Shift keys are in the same place as here...
corrupt stack
Usually that means bad RAM, but it could be anything from CPU to Logic Board.
Does it get further along in the boot if it's cooled for a few hours? -
On startup: "You need to restart your computer. Hold down ..."
When I start up from system folder 10.4.3 on hard disk, I get this message:
"You need to restart your computer. Hold down the Poweer button for several seconds or press the Restart button."
When I do this, my eMac restarts but returns to this very same message.
I did recently fix disk permissions using Hard Disk Utility. Tech Tools program reports no failures.
How can I restart my computer?Find some body that can download and and burn you a copy of techtool 3.0.4 contact micromat and see if they know of a way to roll back a repair. Diskwarrior might help. There again check for the version number compatibility. Utilities are not like they use to be on OS9 and below; here you could use a version designed for lower OS and get by using it.
Todays utilities are based on the operating system themselves. There was a Major change in the version of UNIX used in OS X.3 and X.4 previously they used BSD (Berkley Systems Development) originated my Berkley University. Apple had to pay a Royalty payment for each copy sold. OSX uses FreeBSD UNIX which originally started from BSD UNIX; but, was taken over by the General UNIX community under a License like Mozilla uses for FIreFox and others. Anyway it can be used Royalty free. What's better is FreeBSD is constantly being improved literally daiyly; and therefore is much improved.
I digress. because of these differences the utilities must be written for the differences in code. And what worked on one doesn't on the other. -
Kernel panics, message saying "You need to restart your computer.Hold down the Power..." I am in the middle of HSC very URGENT please help!! Mac keeps needing to restart!!
I looked in console and its saying that it may be because of Sophos Anti-Virus, i deleted and uninstalled all traces of Sophos but looked in console and this is some of the lines coming up:
