Kernel Panic with certain websites

Using OSX 10.3.9 on ibook 1.2 gig with 512 RAM. I have airport express, and am using a cable modem. This is a continuing problem with certain areas of sites (t-mobile, other wireless companies and random websites). I am using Norton Internet Security 3 for mac, which has given me few problems before, mostly lost connections.
So, I hit a site that is a problem, Safari (and Firefox) will try to load the page and as soon as I attempt to close the window, I get the kernel panic page telling me to restart. I've turned off the firewall and return to the same page, but get the same results. Here's my log:

Hi Christopher,
it appears that a kernel extension by Norton is causing these panics (no surprise here). Please uninstall Norton.

  • Kernel Panic with Stripes

    I've got a 3 year old 15" macbook pro that went into Kernel Panic with Stripes today. There was nothing plugged in except for a power supply. My wife said it was in sleep mode and then she opened it up and displayed the following screen.
    /___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png
    I've rebooted it a few times and the same thing keeps happening. I also plugged it into another machine and mounted it as a firewire drive and am currently copying all the files over to another drive.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks.

    Bad or incompatible RAM is the most common cause of KP's. It could just need to be reset……. to make sure there's a good connection.
    But, in your case.....Video Card? Just guessing from the stripes. Pay heed to running the +Apple Hardware Test+ in the following link.
    Here's a great site for Resolving Kernel Panics. Please do all the steps in order, even if you don't think you need to do a certain step.
    Here's a great MacFixIt article.

  • Frequent kernel panics with MPB 2.0 with 2GB RAM

    I have been having frequent kernel panics with my MPB. I have 2GB of RAM that came pre-installed from the factory. This seems to happen most often when I am using external firewire drives. Has anyone out there had similar problems?

    I've done the permission repairs. Also zapped the
    PRAM. Ran the hardware test off the installer DVD
    and it immediately came back with an error code
    (4MEM/1/60000000:) and told me to contact Applecare.
    I called Applecare and they were not very helpful.
    The operator I spoke with had no idea what the
    error code meant. He told me that RAM either works
    or it doesn't. The PRAM zap was done at his
    suggestion. Hasn't changed a thing. The kernel
    panics have only grown more steady over the past
    couple of weeks. More frustrating are frequent and
    repeated application crashes (even simple stuff like
    Safari, Mail, Address Book and Preview). Applecare
    suggested I do a clean install of the OS. But it
    sounds like a hardware issue to me. The app crashes
    are occurring in different accounts on my MPB. I
    don't want to spent a half-day reinstalling all of
    my software only to have the issues continue. I'm
    going to try to re-seat the RAM and then make an
    appointment at the genius bar to have them take a
    look at this. It had been running perfectly for the
    first few weeks.
    If you had an error code during the Hardware Test your MBP has a problem. The 4MEM/1/60000000: maybe linked to bad RAM or not seated correctly. If not seated correctly it will not boot, so it sounds like a bad RAM slot or memory stick.

  • Kernel Panic with AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement on Macbook Pro Retina 15

    Hello,
    I'm getting Kernel Panic with grey "Death Screen". This happends 5 times. On 5-th of January (3 times) and on 8-th (2 times).
    All the cases according to Consol reports have similar symphtoms:
    panic(cpu 2 caller 0xffffff802aeb7e75): Kernel trap at 0xffffff7face2557e, type 13=general protection, registers:
    Kernel Extensions in backtrace:
    com.apple.driver.AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement(196.0)[F79878E3-8CF9-3ACF-B578-2CE 754CA61F8]@0xffffff7face0e000->0xffffff7face36fff
    This line (besides many others) is different in reports
    BSD process name corresponding to current thread: WindowServer (2 times)
    And other one quicklookd, WebProcess and Web Service.
    I sent all reports to Apple Support as MAC OS asked me about. BTW I can publish them again here.
    Firstly, may be it's possible to figure out the reason of panics: Is this the SW or HW problem?
    Guys at service told me to bring Macbook AS IS. But if this is the SW problem I can clean / reinstall OS etc. myself.
    And (after cleaning and/or reinstalling) if the problem is in HW I'll be getting panics again. So I can bring to service Macbook with new history of panics.
    So what is the probability of HW problem in such a case. When all reports point to the same .kext file.
    Thank You in advance.
    Cheers,
    Victor
    P.S.: Computer is new, I didn't change configuration, OS etc.
    Installed programs under question: m3tag (Tag Editor - recompiled by somebody from WIndows program with some similar to CrossOver env.)
    Adobe FlashPlayer Plugin

    Thanks for reply.
    Exactly - MP3Tag Wineskin port. I also think that here is the reason. This port is up-to-date (10.8.2 compatible) but very inacurate - I found  many garbage in MP3Tag package.  And the original Windows program is very old - 1984(?).
    I removed this program from computer and I have to get a try for some period of time.

  • Kernel Panics with 10.4.7.

    So, did anyone else SUDDENLY get Kernel Panics with the 10.4.7?

    Hi, Anapharya.
    No kernel panics on my Macs after 10.4.7 Update.
    See my "Resolving Kernel Panics" FAQ. This FAQ includes step-by-step instructions for identifying and resolving some of the most common causes of kernel panics.
    My FAQ is a roadmap: start at the beginning and work through to the end, including the "If all else fails..." section if a cause or resolution is not found in an earlier troubleshooting step therein.
    Good luck!

  • Kernel panics with external mouse in clamshell mode

    Have had more than 6 kernel panics; usually after waking; always in clamshell mode when using a Logitech wireless mouse (with or w/o software loaded) or Kensington USB trackball (with driver loaded but not worth using w/o driver). Does not happen with Apple USB mouse. Does not happen in laptop mode -- haven't tried laptop mode w/external mouse. Always on work Ethernet when in clamshell mode.
    Has occurred w/OS 10.4.9 and 10.4.10. Have run extended Apple hardware test w/no results.
    Have removed Logitech “LCC” file from user/library/application enhancers.
    Have experienced panics w/a variety of apps open/active, including just Safari.
    Any help greatly appreciated.
    Here are panic logs:

    Greetings.
    I'm having the same problem as Beanfield. I'm using a MX620 Logitech Wireless Laser Mouse, and it produces several problems under Mac OS X 10.4.10. The micro receiver is plugged to the rear of my iMac Intel Dual Core and altough I've switched it to the USB ports of my Apple Keyboard it still happens.The Kernel Panics (with the Grey Screen of Death) happen mostly when the mouse awakes the computer. Very often, when right clicking or single clicking items, the menus appear and disappear. Dragging items becomes impossible and even after restarting the iMac the problem persists.
    It also interfers with the keyboard: sometimes the cursor blinks when moving and when I press any key on the keyboard, it resumes its normal activity. Recently I've added 1 G of RAM, but I've excluded it from the problem since it worked normaly with my now defunt Mighty Mouse. Also, I bought a 500 G Lacie external drive that works very well.
    I'm getting very frustrated since this problems began only a few weeks after my purchases, which took in account full compatibility with my system. All drivers are correctly installed so...what's happening?

  • Kernel Panics with Toast 8

    I kept getting kernel panics with iDVD and Toast 7. I upgraded to the iLife '08 and Toast 8, did all the software updates, and firmware updates to the DVD burner, but I'm still getting kernel panics. The computer's a PowerMac G5 dual 2.0 GHz, 3 GB RAM, LaCie Lightscribe DVD dual-layer burner.
    Any ideas?
    TIA

    all software is up to date.
    iDVD 5 is not compatible with Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard). While this article indicates that the application may simply quit, other issues could also appear.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306062
    Again, no mention of kernel panics, but Roxio has yet to release an update to Toast 7 to make it compatible with Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard). An update is planned for the future.
    http://kb.roxio.com/content/kb/Jam/000056T?set-locale=en
    The text of the kernel panic itself may help some more knowledgeable people here to help determine what piece may be causing the trouble. Or if both crashes are related or separate. You can find the text of the panic in the Console utility.

  • Kernel panics with external Apple modem

    This question has been raised before, but I'm revisiting it in hopes someone may have found a solution.
    I'm getting frequent freezes and failures to awake from sleep, and a number of kernel panics that always implicate the faxmodem:
    Kernel loadable modules in backtrace (with dependencies):
    com.apple.driver.AppleSM56KUSBAudio(1.9.14)@0x6d364000->0x6d37efff
    dependency: com.apple.iokit.SM56KUSBAudioFamily(1.5.10)@0x6d34d000
    dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOUSBFamily(3.1.5)@0x602000
    com.apple.driver.AppleUSBUHCI(3.1.5)@0x8e1000->0x8eefff

    com.apple.iokit.IOUSBFamily(3.1.5)@0x602000->0x629fff
    When the USB modem is not connected I do not get these KPs.
    Apparently there is a firmware conflict between this old Apple modem (I bought it for another machine in 2006) and Intel-based duo-core machines. The Apple Store people tell me the newest Apple USB modems are the same, that is, they have not been updated.
    Any ideas? Do I have to buy another fax modem? I just use it for faxes.
    Thanks.

  • Persisting kernel panics with mountain lion (clean install)

    hi, I could really have some help on recent kernel panics I am experiecing on my 2009 MacBook Pro with Mountain lion installed. Here and there I have been doing some reading but I am not a techy, most of it I do not understand.
    Last kernel panic occured while I was copying a large file (998mb) from network storage. Before a fresh install kernel panics happend literally any time and I could not pin point any reasons.. At the moment I have no third-party software installed except Spotify...
    I also have recently replaced my HDD with an SSD. Currently 8gb of 1066mhz memory is installed
    This is log of the latest kernel panic:

    If there is someone out there that could help, I appreciate it very much...!!! This is getting very annoying
    thank you!!

    Now, before I go any further, I'd like to point out that diagnosing, and actually eliminating, kernel panics is very tricky. There are several causes that are very well documented on the internet. However, you can run all those tests, perform all that voodoo, even reinstall the OS... and continue to have kernel panics. That said, here are some notes:
    What brought me here in the first place is that, since upgrading from Lion to Mountain Lion, I've been having the same frequency of kernel panics as you.
    My frequency of kernel panics using Snow Leopard and Lion averaged once a week.
    On Snow Leopard I could actually reproduce the kernel panic by USB tethering my iPhone. This was a widespread and well-documented issue for people with early 2011 MacBook Pro's, and Apple supposedly fixed it in an update. Supposedly...
    Updating to 10.8.1 didn't fix the problem for me.
    Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, I've stopped using Spotify, as that seemed to be the worst culprit (on my machine). Keep in mind, there are thousands, maybe millions, of users who aren't having kernel panics while using Spotity on Mountain Lion, so that's really only one data point. Also, Spotify recently updated it's own software that may have fixed a kernel extension problem but I haven't used it enough yet to report anything.
    I took my computer to the Apple Store in 2011, and I recently spent an hour on the phone with Apple Care. No dice.
    My kernel panic logs don't seem to have a common denominator as to the cause (Spotify, USB...)
    Just when I think I see a common denominator like when I'm using a certain USB port, or a secondary display, there will be a kernel panic when neither of those things are happening
    You''ve got a lot going on with your machine: upgraded memory, SSD...
    Taking all that into consideration, be cautious not to jump to conclusions. No doubt, it's a combination of factors. For example, it could be certain MacBook Pro's that have certain video cards, USB, Spotify, Flash... I mean, really, it just starts heading down a dangerous path of speculation and conjecture, so I'm leaving it up the Apple engineers at this point. And, of course, always back up.
    Anyway, you and I and whole lot of other folks out there are having the exact same problem since updating to 10.8.0. Add to that the issues that many of us are having with Safari, Mission Control... and it spells out one thing: the price one pays for being an early adopter. By all means, follow the steps outlined here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11045
    and perhaps here:
    http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html
    and use @baltwo's excellent recommendation:
    http://kelleycomputing.net/rember/
    Hopefully, that will fix the problem that you're experiencing but I'm betting against it. Most likely, 10.8.x will fix or at least improve this issue.
    In the meantime, here's the good news: because of the autosave state features introduced in Lion, a kernel panic has gone from being a potentinally devestatingly destructive event to a minor (albeit inccessant) nuisance. It never hurts to compusively hit Command-S but even so, I'm happy to report that I can't think of a single kernel panic that has resulted in substantial data loss (read: work). In fact, there are worse things than restarting your computer, and reallocating memory that's been leaking from Safari...
    Anyway, unless you're one of the those affected that can't even boot, I'd recommmend stopping short of reinstalling the OS. Wait for a stable release, and then when you have a slow week, perform a clean install. Then begin the process of installing fresh versions of your apps one-by-one. Also, by then, third party developers will have had time to update their kernel extensions, etc.
    In other words, follow the hypocratic oath: thou shall not harm. We were all good before Mountain Lion, so let's not fix what isn't broken by tinkering with our systems too much.
    Best of luck to you!

  • Kernel panics with both sticks of RAM but with either

    Hey everyone. Thanks for taking a look at my panic logs. A couple notes are below, followed by the text from four panics. Any suggestions or tips would be helpful! I've already gone through and followed Dr. Smoke's instructions on trying to isolate kernel panics (no haxies, safe mode startup, no login items, &c.) I'm running 10.4.7 on a 1.5GHz PBook with two 1GB sticks of RAM.
    1) don't know what the first one (Thursday's noon panic) is.
    2) looks to me like the next three (Thursday's 7pm, Friday 5:30, and Friday 5:50) are all RAM problems?
    3) I downloaded Rember to check out the RAM, even though my PBook's hardware test was clean, as was techtool's tests. Running Rember is what "caused" both of the Friday crashes.
    4) I took one 1GB stick out of the computer and running Rember resulted in a clean run - I also switched which slot it was in, to see if there could be a problem there. BUT, I also ran the test with the OTHER stick of 1GB RAM and that one came out clean too!
    5) I put both sticks in again and got a "failure" when Rember was "comparing the MUL."
    6) I suppose what might be going on is that the system is using up a certain set of blocks on the RAM that Rember then doesn't have access to when there's only one stick in. If I could be sure that was the problem, I'd buy another stick of RAM and run Rember with one or the other to see if I could isolate which stick might be bad.
    7) Until then, I suppose I'll run my computer with "just" one stick of RAM to see if it crashes at some point.
    8) Do you think it could be a different hardware problem that doesn't allow ANY two sticks of RAM to be used at the same time?

    1.5 GHz 15 PowerBook   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Memtest, which is what Rember is just putting a GUI around, doesn't cause panics. Also, the best test is Memtest done from the command line in Single User Mode. Consensus seems to be that AHT and TechTool Pro 4.1.x (don't know if they managed to improve 4.5.1, but if they did, it would be to just include Memtest in their own routines probably) are both weak on memory testing.
    According to users and MacIntouch reader feedback, iTunes is actually one of the best applications and where problems may show up.
    memory can differ enough in timing, voltage, construction so that even memory from same vendor/maker will "not get along" which is why it is always best to buy together sometimes. Even Crucial had trouble summer '04 when Apple made small changes in the G5 and DDR400.
    If AHT doesn't find any problem with the logicboard, cpu, or RAM slots then I would just try to replace the RAM for say 2 x 1GB? from a known brand.

  • Kernel panics with iBook G4 and 10.3.9 (modem kext)

    Upon upgrading my iBook G4 to 10.3.9, I began recieving a rash of kernel panics (about 1-2 a day) . This was quite a change from the relatively solid machine I had previous ( about a panic a month with 10.3.8 with heavy daily use ). I initially suspected some ram failure but after extensive testing (bit flip, pattern, etc.) in single user mode eliminated that possibility.
    The panic log contiuously pointed at the MotorolaSM56K driver. I now suspected a kernel module/kernel incompatibility problem. After activating root and kextunloading that class I was able to regain some measure of stabilty ( about 4-5 days between crashes ). This stability varied as the class would be reloaded by OS under certain (unknown) conditions. As I have actually never used the built-in modem I have now decided to fully unload the AppleI2SModemFamily.kext extension, to avoid the SM56K class from starting.
    Have others noticed similar issues when upgrading from 10.3.8 to 10.3.9? or with the modem kext? I am suprised at the poor quality of this "upgrade", having used X since 10.1 on my ibook G3 (that I have now kept at 10.3.8)
    Is the modem kernel extension a red herring and its truly an issue in the kernel (that the modem extension exposes)?
    attached are some snippets from my (now very long) panic.log:

    iBook G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    A reasonable possibility is that you upgraded without
    first repairing the hard drive and permissions.
    Although this may not help after the fact, I suggest
    you give it a try:
    Boot from your OS X Installer. Be sure to use the
    installer for the version of OS X you have installed.
    After the installer loads select Disk Utility from
    the Installer menu (or Utilities menu if using
    Tiger.) After DU loads select your OS X volume from
    the list on the left, click on the First Aid tab,
    then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports
    any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair
    Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are
    reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait
    until the operation completes, then quit DU and
    return to the installer. Now shutdown the computer
    for a couple of minutes and then restart normally.
    This I did yesterday and found a slew of permission setting problems - speaking to some endemic issues in the OS software/installation scripts. But after doing this repair (all were repairable) and reinstalling the COMBO update to 10.3.9 the problem persists. Thanks for the tip.
    Keep in mind that RAM can pass the memory tests yet
    not work properly with OS X. Therefore, you cannot
    assume that because the RAM passed the memory tests
    that it is fully functional with OS X. If you have
    installed third-party RAM, the only definitive test
    is to remove it and see if the kernel panics cease.
    If they do, then add one module at a time and
    re-test. When the panics recur you have identified
    the faulty module.
    Though I find disconcerting that Apple's POST routines are not sufficient to identify out of spec/incompatible RAM, I fully tested my memory (as mentioned) using memtest in single user mode. Memtest is a gnu program ported over from BSD unix that does exhaustive memory testing (ie the patterns, walking, etc that I mentioned)
    Of course it's also possible there is a hardware
    problem with the modem itself or that your upgrade to
    10.3.9 is defective. After repairing the hard drive
    and permissions you should reinstall the 10.3.9
    update, but be sure to do so using the Combo updater.
    You can download it from Apple's download site.
    How the modem hardware failure mysteriously coincided with my 10.3.9 upgrade begs the question on how could be anything but a software issue...

  • Kernel Panic with 10.4.3, 10.4.4

    I have a Quicksilver dual 1GHz G4 with 1.25GB of ram. It was ridiculously stable until the 10.4.3 update. With the 10.4.4 update, things got even worse. I now have so many kernel panics as to make the machine unusable.
    I've run through the "Resolving Kernel Panics" page step-by-step... run DiskWarrior, run the machine with "plugs-out" (NO FireWire or USB devices plugged in), archive & installed, ran with each stick of ram individually, repaired permissions, zapped the PRAM, run "reset-nvram" and "reset-all" in Open Firmware.... nothing fixes it, nothing seems to be the culprit.
    Crash log below. Can anyone help PLEASE?

    Sorry, forgot to include that info. I ran the Apple Hardware Test and the TechTool Pro suite of hardware tests.... all passed. (And yes, I had pulled everything FireWire and USB except the Apple keyboard and mouse, which were plugged directly into the Mac.) In addition to the Open Firmware "reset-nvram" and "reset-all", I also hit the CUDA switch on the motherboard. The machine is still giving me kernel panics. The only thing I haven't done yet is pull the hard drives and clean-install onto a new drive. (I hope to do that tonight.)
    What's interesting is that the dim-out "You have to restart your computer" screen is gone, and has been replaced by white-on-black text generator text overwriting the GUI display, and after restart there's no "report to Apple" dialog, nor is there any log entry. Having Console and Activity Monitor show nothing out of the ordinary.
    For what it's worth, I'm "forcing" the KP by running iTunes with the visualizer running, figuring that's the closest thing to me sitting at it doing stuff and waiting for it to crash out. When it panics, the music goes into a loop of the last 1/2-second of music (i.e. "dit-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit...")
    Another item of note is that 10.4.0 (after clean install) and 10.4.2 do not have this problem. The panics only occur under 10.4.3 and 10.4.4.
    The text of the white-on-black text is retyped as follows. Notice that the DAR record is the only thing different between the two:
