Open GL now causing HARD CRASHES after upgrade to 10.5.7

I have a 2.5 year old mac pro intel mac quad core. My graphics card is NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT. After the last update, I get hard crashes when I used OpenGL intensive programs such as Photoshop and Electric Image Animator. Electric Image is a 3d program that uses Open GL intensely. When I move a light around it will cause my machine to lock up. Another person who uses Electric image and has the same graphics card is having the same issue.

I made sure I have the latest firmware upgrades for the card. I Need a Fix.

Try the ATI Radeon 4870, even though it isn't endorsed for use in your 1st gen Mac Pro.

I upgraded my MacBook Pro to 10.6.8 today and now it hard crashes the OS when I plug in my iHome USB Keyboard!!!

I upgraded my MacBook Pro to 10.6.8 today and now it hard crashes the Operating System when I connect my iHome USB keyboard. I get a window that states I must press the power button until the computer shuts down and then restart. On reboot sends Panic Report to Apple with lots of USB error type stuff in it. WORKED FINE UNTIL I UPGRADED TO 10.6.8 TODAY.

Free memory. You are probably getting crashes becasue you have too much stuff floating sround in memory. Double tap the home button to see the task bar. Touch and hold any of those icons until they jiggle, then delete them all by touching the minus sign.
Do this every day, or more oftern if needed to keep the system freed up. If you are using safari a lot, make sure to fully close some of the windows by touch the x on the tabs. Each window uses some active memory.
From time to time, do a full reboot by holding the sleep and home button until the apple logo appears. Ignore the red slider. This also frees up some system resources.
The iOS system is supposed to do this for you, but since the intro of ios 5 there are a fair number of folks crashing.

Curve crashes after upgrade to OS 4.5.0.81

Curve crashes after upgrade to OS 4.5.0.81
Ever since I upgraded to the T-Mobile handheld OS 4.5.0.81, my Curve crashes several times a day down to a black screen. I can't power back up on battery -- I have to plug in to an AC source, then power back up.
Hourglass remains on for quite some time to boot up, then I get a message about verifying security settings.
Curve usually crashes when I'm on a call, although now it seems to be happening when I'm using any of the phone setting menus.
I've already tried 1) freeing up memory on the SIM card by deleting pictures 2) doing a clean install of the handheld software using Desktop Manager.
It's still crashing. My BlackBerry is two months out of warranty (of course!). T-Mobile says I have to buy a new phone. I think it's a software issue (I've used the phone with no problems between 3/1/2008 and 4/4/2009).
Any help/insight would be appreciated.

Below there is an excerpt from page to link I provided above:
What If I Want To Downgrade?
Forum member 'bfrye' made a good guide: Here is a quick install guide to your blackberry. This should easily cover reinstallation of OS and reverting back to previous OS version as well.
1. Download the version of OS you want to install from your carrier's website.
2. Extract or install the files from the previous step. They will automatically install into the correct location. This location will be C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research in Motion\Shared\Loader Files. Under this directory you will see directories with the model number of your device (if you installed the correct files) followed by a version number. Under these directories will be a host of .alx and .cod files. Do not modify or delete these files. They are needed to install the new OS.
3. Assume the BlackBerry Handheld Manager is installed, when you plug your device in, a popup will appear and ask if you want to upgrade your device. Choose upgrade and follow the steps given by the Application Loader. If you have any 3rd party applications you would like to keep, locate and select them at this time to avoid having to reload them after the new OS is installed.
4. This will also be the time the apploader will ask if you want to erase all data and reload or backup and restore the data on your device. Choose your preference and continue.
5. Typically a complete OS reload with backup and restore can take anywhere from 5-15 minutes depending on the amount of data on your device to restore.
6. The apploader will inform you when the process is complete. After this, the device will automatically reset itself (sometime this will take longer than a normal reboot) and once completed and on, your device will be upgraded and ready to go.
Now if you wish to downgrade your device to a previous version, many of the above steps will apply.
First, you will have to remove the newer OS from your PC. Do this by going to add/remove programs in the control panel and removing the software for the new BB OS. Make sure desktop manager is not running when you do this. After complete, restart the Desktop Manager.
When you plug in your device, if everything went well, the Desktop Manager should tell you that your PC has an older version of desktop tools than is installed on the device. It will give you an option to keep the version on your BlackBerry or downgrade to the version on your PC. You will want to select downgrade and let apploader do the work.
Should this method fail, you will have to download the file javaloader.exe from the internet. Place it in a common directory (I usually put mine in the Loader Files directory for easy access. From the directory you have javaloader.exe installed in type "javaloader -usb wipe". This will completely erase all data and applications from your devie. Now navigate to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research in Motion\AppLoader and delete the file vendor.xml. Now plug in your device and install the new OS from scratch. Open apploader and select the USB port as your connection. It will then bring to you to the main apploader screen and all the OS packages will be listed with status as Install.
If you have question beyond the scope of this document please feel free to post them. However I suggest reading and rereading these steps to ensure you have tried the most basic and tried steps to load or reload your OS. Have fun and enjoy!
Have you done all steps described ?

AW crashes after upgrade to OSX

AW crashes after upgrading to OS10.4.4.
I have never, in many years, had it fail to open prior to this.
I don't know if this is a coincident or not, but it will not open at all.
It begins the process then stops and gives this message:
.... The application Appleworks quit unexpectedly.
I restarted the system a couple of times but that did not help.
I believe it fails during font installation.
Maybe a font is incompatible with the new OS. ...but which one??
Harold

After updating AppleWorks 6 or OS X, it is necessary to delete the AppleWorks preferences. See my user tip, AppleWorks has stopped working correctly, for more information.
Even though it does appear that you may have a corrupt font, do the preference thing first. It is likely that the font was added with the system upgrade or you have a duplicate font. First, look for a font named Bauhaus 93. This font is installed by versions of Microsoft Office before Office 2004. The Bauhaus 93 with Office 2004 is not corrupt. If you don't find Bauhaus 93, before going through the trial & error of locating a corrupt font, use FontBook to check for duplicate fonts.
The trial & error method of corrupt font isolation involves moving all of the fonts from the various font folders to another folder (the Desktop is a good place) & then moving a few back at a time & trying to launch AppleWorks. When it crashes you will know the culprit is in the last bunch.

My Aperture crash after upgrade to 3.4. Pls help !

My Aperture crash after upgrade to 3.4. Pls help!

Removing the plist "fixed" my problems too.
Any idea what specifically in the plist is causing the problem?
That depends. I have not seen your crash log.
The problem is, that the current Aperture installer is buggy. Depending on the Aperture version you are upgrading from, some frameworks may not be installed correctly. The installer erraniously assumes they are already installed. That is why the suggested fix is to reinstall from an early version, so the installer is forced to install everything new.
Your plist contains your webaccounts, recent files, the layout of the Gui. If one of these settings prompts Aperture to use ine of the missing frameworks, it will crash. For most people here it is the Facebook setting. Removing the preferences makes Aperture forget that you have a Facebook account. If you add that account again, Aperture probably will crash again.

Various programs crash after upgrade to 10.6.4

Various programs crash after upgrade to 10.6.4 but only late in the day / evening. There seem to be no crashes early in the day.
After a reboot the problem is fixed and things seem to work OK.
Might this be some kind of memory-related issues?? Programs not releasing memory until eventually there's nothing left?
I'm a Windows guy until recently so am not up to speed with Mac software / hardware yet.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

My computer crashes repeatedly and I get the message pages are not responding do you want to stop, and/or shockwave is not responding do you want to stop. I have Windows XP Service Pack 3, I am having the same issues whether I use Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, or Mozilla Firefox. My HP Pavilion Desktop has 504 MB of Ram and I am using high speed internet connection. Because it was crashing so much, I used the uninstall program for Flash player to uninstall Flash, I checked my registry and removed anything I saw that was Flash. I then uninstalled Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox, then I reinstalled the most recent versions from their websites. I did the same for FlashPlayer and Shockwave Flash. I went to the Adobe website and had them check to see if it was working and it shows I have FlashPlayer 10.3.181.36. The page that shows which version of flash player goes with Windows XP states that I should have 10.3.181.34 (This is what I thought I had before I updated, I was having the same problems). When I went into my computer to see what version I have, it shows 11.5.9.620 Activex and both Flash Player and Flash Player Object is listed as 10.3.181.34. My firewall for Windows is set to medium. I also am running Norton Internet Security. It takes anywhere from 3-6minutes for some of my games to load, and I have to refresh at least 3-4 times in order to play. When I do start to play it freezes frequently and I use escape to free it up. This has been going on for a month. I have no idea what to do. I am not very computer savy and I have been learning as I go.

Same issue also. Occurring both on my iPad 2 and iPhone 4 after upgrading to ios 5
By the way, Mattban and Sancasslano, are either of you also experiencing any of the following issues:
* Problems with Contacts either crashing or listing no names
* Problems with turning iCloud on or off for application under Settings->iCloud... On both mine I just get a pop up saying that iCloud is being turned off but Contacts then just locks up.
* General problems when trying to synch applications on the iPad or iPhone over iCloud?
I am wondering if all these issues are in someway related to and whether it is worth trying to turn off iCloud somehow, though I cannot work out how this can be done once set up.

Hey AU Nicasio,
Thanks for the question. If the iCloud tab (and other tabs) are greyed out, and you are unable to tap on them, it sounds like Restrictions have been enabled on your device. Specifically, the Restriction titled “Allow Changes: Accounts”.

Why does Final Cut cause a hard system crash after upgrading computer's memory?

2x2.8 gHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon MacPro that orginally came with 2gBs of memory. We upgraded to 4gBs of memory by adding 2 1gB ram chips. Ever since, Final Cut Pro has been causing hard system crashes. Does anybody have an idea why this is happening?

Installing memory is very specific
the correct type of DIMMs must be installed in the correct slots dependant on the type of processor fitted
install exactly as per the Mac Pro guidelines here:
Mac Pro Memory DIMM Instalation
you will have to reload the web page a few times after the page warning to down load correctly (command R)
if it is per the instructions and your having trouble, the DIMMs are most likely faulty

All VIs containing MathScript cause a fatal crash after upgrading from 8.2 to 8.5... what gives?

So I finally took the plunge and updated to 8.5 from 8.2 and now when I open a project that was previously done (as in ready for release this week ) it causes a hard crash where LabVIEW closes completely. I've looked and can't seem to find any others complaining of this. My only option that works at this point is to have a coworker open all my VIs containing mathscript and delete the function with his 8.2 enviornment. What could be causing this? There has to be some simple answer...somewhere.
Thanks in advance for all the help!
Regards,
Dave

These VIs work fine for me under LV 8.2 and will no longer work under LV 8.5. The first one is a call to our power supplies, the second uses the math formula node to verify that some color and luminance parameters are valid.
In the meantime I am stuck using a coworkers 8.2 development system with TS 3.5 to deploy which works with no issues. When I try on my new system with 8.5 and TS 4.0 it crashes out.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
Regards,
Dave
