Kernel Panic when closing laptop during shut down

It was the 2nd day I had my MBP and was jsut heading to sleep.
I had selected Apple > Shut Down to turn off the comp, and closed the laptop (I put the screen down and whatnot)
Few minutes passed, and I still saw the sleep light on for some reason. I opened the laptop back up, and there was the Kernel Panic screen.
I have no idea why it did this. Should I be worried?
It was just the 2nd day the MBP was in my possession and it would be really lame if problems were already arising THAT early.
MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

The machine hadn't completed the shutdown process when you shut the lid and effectively told it to sleep. The conflict between the two tasks is what caused the panic. Wait until you see the MBP actually shut down before closing the lid. There are also some out there who suggest letting it cool a few minutes before shutting the lid to save the screen, which kind of makes sense depending on how intensively you'd been running it prior.

  • I'm getting kernel panics each day as I shut down, the message of restarting by holding down the power button appears on the screen - it began about a month ago and. Do you have any ideas of how to solve the problem?

    I'm getting kernel panics each day as I shut down, the message of restarting by holding down the power button appears on the screen - it began about a month ago and. Do you have any ideas of how to solve the problem? I've copied the logs that I found for each kernel panic that still have the message logged. Please help if you can, I have read some of the other comments and perhaps it has something to do with my anti-virus software being on at start up. I have copied the log here. Any advice will be welcome.

    Immediate suspects are the additions you added to you rsystem that installed kexts (drivers).  From above,
    com.intego.iokit.VBX6NKE            1

    com.intego.kext.VirusBarrier.AppBarrierKPI            10.6.8

    Two experiments you can try.
    1.  Boot in safe mode and see if you can shut down normally.  All thise additions won't be running in safe mode so this test would indicate it is one of them causing the problem.
    2. Uninstall all the intego VirusBarrier stuff.  That's my first guess and the troublemaker.

  • Kernel Panics When Shutting Down

  • I connected my iphone 4s that i unlocked for t-mobile. I plugged it into itunes, and it asked me to update to ios6. I accepted the download and update button. it told me it needed 8 hours. i closed my laptop. not shut down. i opened and it wants restorin?

    I connected my iphone 4s that I unlocked for t-mobile. I plugged it into itunes, and it asked me to update to ios6. I accepted the download and update button. It told me it needed 8 hours. I closed my laptop, not shut down. I re-opened the laptop a few hours later, and it wants restoring?? Whats going on?! i want my iphone back! PLEASE HELP. I'M LOST!!! (I synced my iphone to my computer if that helps at all).

    Yes, and, I try to restore. I have the T-Mobile sim card in it just to clarify. It will not let me get passed that, it does not accept the t-mobile sim card. i tried restoring it using wifi, cellular, and i cant get i tunes. I am scared that if i take the tmobile sim card out and put the at&t one in just to complete the restoration process that the iphone will lock again and not read the tmobile sim card, then all my hard work has gone for nothing. ( this whole process was caused by me trying wanting to empty my pictures onto my computer because i did not have any storage space left). <--- that may not be as important, but i included it just because.

  • My Satellite laptop (A305) shuts down when run on the AC charger/adapter

    The problem is that my Toshiba _A300 series laptop (A305) shuts down when you try to run it on the AC charger/adapter_. You can boot it with the power cord plugged in and it will get to Windows Desktop and maybe a few minutes more at most before shutting off.
    It will boot and _run from battery without problem_, but if you plug in the AC while it is up and running on battery the machine will normally click off instantly and reboot to the message "Windows was not shut down correctly."
    The _AC adapter works fine_ reading a steady 19.19 to 19.20 volts with a voltmeter. It also _charges the battery fine when the computer is off_. I have two Toshiba brand batteries and they both work fine.
    One interesting thing is that the _computer runs fine on AC when in safe mode_.
    I _did a reformat/factory restore_ of Vista to assure it was not software and drivers, and still got the same problem before any external devices had been plugged in.
    It has the latest BIOS and I tried resetting it to default values in case anything had gotten changed. It made no difference.
    This is _not a heating issue_ because _while it is run on battery I can watch long videos_ without it shutting off. I ran compressed air through the vents just to make sure, but it makes no difference in behavior. Usually with an overheating shut-off, the computer cannot be started until it has cooled some, but these shutdowns are accompanied by an instant reboot.
    I have seen on some threads that this type of problem one can work around by disabling one of the processors in Device Manager, but I don't think that is much of a lasting solution or good for the computer.
    Has anyone seen this problem before and have you come with a full diagnosis of the problem and a real solution?

    I have Satellite A300 and until now everything works OK.
    I would like to know what happen when you remove the battery and use notebook with power supply only. Does notebook shuts down again.
    If not let OS run and put the battery.
    Is the battery recognized properly? Does notebook switch off again?
    To be honest I cannot imagine this issue has something with software or background processes. Recovery image you got with your notebook is designed for this certain notebook mode. Recovery image is tested and I dont think preinstalled OS has anything to do with this.
    Full diagnosis?
    And how to do this? You know very well that diagnosis can be done with diagnostic tools only and such tools have services only. I hope you will find answers but Im 99% sure there is nothing you can do about that. Maybe you should contact service, explain the situation and ask for help.

    Mail is open but it is frozen, being this the reason why you cannot open the Mail window. Press Alt, Command and Esc keys or go to  > Force Quit, select Mail and force quit it. Finally, you will be able to turn off or restart the MacBook

    I just reinstalled arch (slight mishap yesterday :oops: ) I'm running testing, have installed xorg, kde, ati stuff, etc. When I try to startx I get a "kernel panic not syncing". Has something to do with xorg configeration.
    Any ideas :?:
    If I just run xorgconfig no panic when I then run aticonfig etc panic.

    KeepItSimple:
    If you're getting a kernel panic when trying to install, then I'd start with RAM and the installation disks.
    RAM: Panther has higher standards for RAM than does 10.2.x; if you have more than one RAM module, take one out (assuming that leaves you with at least 128 MB) and try again. If it panics again, try switching the RAM. As far a brand names go, I prefere Kingston or Azen RAM.
    Installation Disks: if they're grey, they won't work. Grey installation disks are packaged with specific Macs, and only contain hardware drivers for that specific Mac. You need the retail version of the disks, which were sold in a black box. There are four CDs in the set, three of which are for installing the OS (the fourth contains Developer Tools). The three OS disks are black with a large silver X in the middle.
    Good luck!

  • Kernel Panic when waking from sleep mode., Kernel Panic when waking from sleep mode.

    Hi,
    I have an Imac 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo desktop which I have upgraded to lion.
    Recently I keep getting kernel panics when waking from sleep mode and I cannot figure out what it is.
    I am not very computer savy - I.e. I use a computer but don't know programming etc.
    The computer then asks me to shut down and restart.
    Any help would be much appreciated as this is driving me crazy.

    Hi, for other peoples information - I finally figured out the problem. It was actually a faulty RAM module which I had bought. I had upgraded from 2 to 4 gb of RAM using an approved type of RAM for my particular computer. Finally I removed one module of RAM (after doing nearly everything else under the sun including trying to reinstall the operating system and wipe the computer etc) and the computer worked fine.

  • Hard lockup when closing laptop lid (Linux 2.6.23)

    I just found this out a few days ago, telling my laptop to shut down a few hours later, and still finding it running half a day later, severely overheated (!).
    I am running a custom kernel (2.6.23.1 with some of the kamikaze broken out patches). I get this:
    - I unplug the laptop USB mouse
    - I close the lid
    - I reopen the lid, only to find my system completely locked up (no screen refresh anymore, no possibility to switch to a virtual terminal, no possibility to restart X or restart the system (Ctrl+Alt+Del/Backspace aren't working at all).
    I have no action specified for closing the lid (I plan on making it do suspend to RAM as soon as this issue is cleared up). Now if I leave the USB laptop mouse plugged in all works fine. I can close the lid, open it up again, and my system remains fully usable.
    To make sure this wasn't just me being clumsy and compiling a bad kernel, I tried the 2.6.23-ARCH kernel from testing. It exhibits exactly the same behaviour. 2.6.22-ARCH works just fine.
    Are there people having the same issue?

    Okay guys . I got some goodies up . For those interested:
    - 2.6.22.12 kernel with CFS v22, hrtimers, powertop, Reiser4 and default CPU frequency governor 'ondemand'
    - iwlwifi 1.1.21
    - Authentec fingerprint reader driver
    I guess that should get you going pretty much  . The iwlwifi drivers have been built out-of-tree since my efforts to merging in the newer mac80211 stack & latest iwlwifi drivers amounted to nothing but a boatload of patch errors :-( (yes i can hack up patches to work but I felt like not doing it, since iwlwifi builds just fine out-of-tree). This kernel is tailored to the 6510 hardware, I cannot tell what is different in the 6170b lineup, but you definitely should not try this kernel on just any machine .
    If you have any questions, drop me a line.
    Credit of course to waninkoko for his kamikaze patchset, from which most of the patches come.
    Update: to the latest 2.6.22.12 kernel + corresponding driver packages

  • Kernel panics when in sleep mode

    I bought a macbook pro about a month ago. It first came with Mountain Lion installed on it. I began having kernel panics when I put the laptop into sleep mode by closing the lid. After some time I would open the lid to find that the laptop had rebooted with a kernel panic. This continued to sporadically happen. I called apple and went to the apple store. The mbp passed their hardware tests so they did a clean Yosemite installation. I am still having the kernel panics. They all look nearly identical. I'm not sure what could be causing this. Any ideas are appreciated.

    Apparently the forum software here is preventing my from posting my entire log.

    After doing a clean install of Yosemite this same kernel panic continued to happen and I started getting gpuRestarts as well. Finally they replaced my logic board at the apple store and so far no more panics. My google results lead me to believe this was a failing GPU.

  • My iTunes wont close and is preventing my laptop from shutting down

    I plugged out my iPod touch when iTunes was asking me whether I wanted an update or not, and now iTunes wont close and has frozen, preventing my laptop from shutting down. I have intel Celeron inside and Windows 7.

    Mail is open but it is frozen, being this the reason why you cannot open the Mail window. Press Alt, Command and Esc keys or go to  > Force Quit, select Mail and force quit it. Finally, you will be able to turn off or restart the MacBook

  • What is wrong with my user account?? Why do I get kernel panic when restart

    Hi there. I got Leopard and was quite unhappy (don't think it was meant for a powerbook). So I started using Tiger again, and I flip flopped once or twice after the update came out for Leopard, thinking/hoping it would fix my problems. It didn't. I have given up on Leopard.
    But, now Tiger seems to have a few problems of its own. I get the kernel panic when I restart my computer (telling me to restart), so I have to hold down the power button to turn it off and then turn it back on. Not a big deal, but if it shouldn't be doing that, I don't want it to, ya know? Never did it before Leopard.
    My user account seems to be dysfunctional when it comes to downloading plug-ins for safari or firefox. I had to create a new user account and download the plug in from that account and then drag it into the HD to use it on my user account. I repaired disk permissions and booted from Tiger and did the same thing on there. After that, my user account is still not able to download that plug-in without getting errors (256)?
    Is there a way to do a reinstall of Tiger from a blank slate, and be sure there won't be any problems?
    Thanks!

    Leopard will work with your Powerbook, the question is, is all your software and hardware ready for it?
    Is there a way to do a reinstall of Tiger from a blank slate, and be sure there won't be any problems?
    You can start from a blank slate, but if you have a hardware problem that started to generate itself, a blank slate won't solve it. It is called an erase and install. The first thing to do is backup your data*:
    http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
    Once that is done at least twice, we can start looking at solutions for kernel panics*:

  • Kernel panic when waking PowerBook from sleep on a new network

    I occasionally take my PowerBook from home to work, and lately there have been several instances of my PB having a kernel panic when I plug in the ethernet cable and wake it from sleep. I have not tested this extensively, but it seems to occur under the following conditions:
    1. PB is disconnected from network location 1, and the lid is closed so that it goes to sleep.
    2. PB is moved to network location 2, the ethernet cable at that location is plugged in, and then the computer lid is opened, causing the computer to awake from sleep.
    3. The computer has a kernel panic immediately on awaking.
    I believe, but am not absolutely positive, that this does not occur if I awake the computer first, and then plug in the ethernet cable. Unfortunately that order of doing things is counter-intuitive to me, as I tend to want to plug everything in before waking the computer up.
    Possibly a factor: At my home location I have a manually assigned IP address and other location-specific settings, whereas at work I change the network settings to fully automatic once the computer starts up.

    Hello DistantThunder
    In most cases kernel panics are a result of a hardware error on some cases a software error.
    I would suggest you look at an excellent procedure for resolving these issues on Dr Smoke's website.

  • Laptop doesnt shut down properly or sleep

    There seems to be a big problem with my laptop. It seems to not shut down properly, or awake from sleep properly. When it goes to sleep, you need to hold down the power button to turn it off, then turn it back on again Also when you shut it down, the fan seems to be on, the light on the power button seems to be on, so you once again have to hold down the power button to turn it off that way to turn it back on I've updated the bios and rolled them back, and still getting this problem Pavilion p157na Thanks

    Hello , Welcome back to the HP Support Forums! I came across your post about the laptop not shutting down, and wanted to assist you! Please review the following resources, as they may help to resolve the issue for you:HP PCs - Troubleshooting Sleep and Hibernate Issues (Windows 8)HP Notebook PCs - Computer Does Not Start (Windows 8)Laptop won't shut down completely (Not a HP supported Web site). Please let me know if this information was helpful by clicking the thumbs up below.

    Help!!! Brand new MBP with Santa Rosa Kernel Panics when started with external HD firewire 800 after 20 sec...
    I don't know what it could be???
    Do you???
    Thanx
    Jay

    I'm actually having a similar issue and I don't think its related to networking at all.
    I'm currently working in a corporate environment where we deploy pre-built OS X images to machines. I recently upgraded my images to 10.4.10 before we got our first Santa Rosa machine. This image was built on a MacPro and worked on all Intel Macs down to a MacMini CoreSolo. When I deployed my prebuilt image to the SR MBP, it caused a kernel panic immediately.
    Further investigation revealed previous builds of OS X, including 10.4.10 upgraded from any other model Intel Mac will kernel panic the SR MBP. Going backwards the SR Build of OSX will not work on any previous model Mac, as any other build typically does, but causes severe graphical distortion, as if it does not have the display drivers for the other Macs.
    To make a long story short, I think your issue comes from the fact that your external hard drive has an older build of OS X 10.4 than the SR MBP will run (even though you may have upgraded it to 10.4.10). Anyone who can corroborate my story with some more testing, please chime in.
    I haven't found a solution for this issue yet other than keeping a seperate Santa Rosa Core 2 Duo image for my deployments.
