Panic!  What does this mean???? help

Hi,
My macbookpro is just 3 weeks old and I already had 3 panics.....
Here is the log file for one of the event:

Is there a fix?
Thank you.

fredericlang,
Your plan sounds good to me, and yes, there could be some "intermittent" hardware failure causing the panics.
Before we go on, I want to establish that you should NEVER have a panic, provided you have three things:
1) Flawless hardware
2) A flawless installation (which is why we are "zeroing" and reinstalling)
3) No bad or conflicting kernel extension
To back this up, I will tell you that I have only had one KP on this machine, it was long ago, and it was due to a disk error (and thus a bad installation). Currently, my "uptime" is at 44 days, 13 1/2 hours, and I put this thing through its paces every day.
OK, well a 4th thing: Problematic peripherals.
Let's rule these out, one by one. Are you connecting anything that could cause panics, or is anything connected when they occur? No? Let's move on.
We are pretty sure we have ruled out a bad installation, and you are going to make double sure. Good.
Are you installing any third-party "haxies," or anything else that might place kernel extensions in the Extensions folder? Are you running the Migration Assistant to transfer stuff from a PPC machine? If you can rule this last one out, we are left with only one possibility...
HARDWARE! As I say, you should never have a single kernel panic. If you have narrowed it down to hardware, and they still occur, be firm! Insist, regardless of the results of any diagnostics, that you have a new machine, or a logic board/memory replacement. If necessary, escalate your case. Get this fixed, and get it fixed expeditiously.

    Hi, I was given an iMac Flat Screen over the weekend, it turned on ok, this morning when i turned it on there is a circle with a flashing ?, what does this mean, help!

    It means that it cannot locate the operating system.
    You need to reinstall from the disks that came with the iMac and which the vendor is required to give you.

  • Kernel Panic: What does this mean please?

    Several days ago I downloaded 10.4.11 update and got an icon placed on my desktop. I double-clicked it and it said it didn't recognize it, so I put the icon in the trash.
    That night when I tried to shut down it progressed normally until I got a dark screen. Then, just when I thought it was closed down, up pops a rectangle that says "You need to restart the computer. Hold down the power key for several seconds."
    I held down the power key, and instead of the computer starting back up, it turned off. I didn't think much about it. But then the next night it did the same thing again, and again last night.
    It has only done it on that one user account where I downloaded the update to my desktop. And one night I verified permissions, verified the disk, shut everything down one=by-one, and disconnected before shutting down, and it did not do it that night. But did do it again the next night. Here is the report that it gave me:

    Cyan,
    I'm not an expert in this field, but I can suggest the catchall "Archive and Install" option on your Mac OS X Install DVD. "Archive and Install" backs up your current system folder (and also your documents, music, and pictures), and installs a fresh system on your hard disk. You can then drag the "Previous System" folder to the Trash after the installer is finished. I am going to assume that the Mac OS X 10.4.11 update caused this, as your computer seemed to be working properly before the update.
    To "Archive and Install", start your computer from your Mac OS X Install DVD (by holding down the "C" key with the Install DVD in the drive as your Mac boots). Next, after you see the Mac OS X Installer, follow the prompts until you reach the "Destination" screen. Once you select your current hard disk, click the "Options" button in the lower left-hand corner of your screen. In the window that appears, choose the "Archive and Install" button, and *make sure* that the "Preserve Users and Network Settings" is selected. Then, proceed with the install. Once the installer completes and you have a working system, open your Macintosh HD. There, you should see a folder called "Previous System". Once you are sure that your current system is working, you may drag this folder to the Trash, and then empty the Trash. If you need more help with "Archive and Install", please look at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120.
    Also, once the install completes and you have a functioning system, *do not* download the Mac OS X 10.4.11 update. 10.4.11 has been known to cause problems for many Mac users. You can download the Mac OS X 10.4.10 Update from http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx10410comboupdateppc.html for PowerPC processors, and http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx10410comboupdatev11intel.html for Intel processors. These are "combo" updaters-they will update any Mac OS X 10.4 version (from 10.4.0 to 10.4.9) to version 10.4.10.
    Good luck!

    Hi Poonam26c,
    If you do not have a local copy of a song which you have purchased (i.e. it is available via iTunes in the Cloud), you may need to redownload it before you can transfer it to your device. You may find the following article helpful:

    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune (make sure you have the newest version of iTune)
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPad
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad
