Previous shutdown cause

Ever since i tried an old ubuntu live cd with boot camp today, my previous shutdown cause on startup has been listed as 3, it has always been 0 before this.
One thing to note as the ubuntu live cd locked up on restart, so I had to power off, but after several reboots/power offs it still sais:
Jul 5 12:44:16 localhost kernel[0]: Previous Shutdown Cause: 3
when booting up?
Does anyone have a table of what the different shutdown causes are? (I'm not noticing any difference in how the system is behaving)

I don't have an answer to your question, but do have another instance of it; and I'm still in shock as my MacBook just crashed!
I have just experienced the "black veil of death"--an opaque black screen descended over my computer and said I had to re-start. When I checked the system log I too had the message:
localhost kernel[0]: Previous Shutdown Cause: 3
Can anyone shed any light on the possible cause of this previously unknown event (an OS-X system crash)?! James

  • "Previous Shutdown Cause" codes?

    Hi -- My MacBook has been experiencing some problems.. intermittently shutting itself down, and getting worse & worse until I couldn't even start the laptop up. I believe the problem was a faulty memory module (3rd party, installed myself) -- after replacing the original Apple memory I haven't experienced any problems.
    In the system.log, I see this message after a system failure & crash:
    Jul 8 18:46:51 localhost kernel[0]: Previous Shutdown Cause: -82
    Does anyone know what this code means?
    thanks,
    Jon
    MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   (previously 2G ram)

    Sorry to hear that. Hopefully they will just give you a new machine.
    Be sure to do the following:
    1.) Try to exhibit the problem. Mine shut down three times in the store. The last time it shut off at home, I left it alone, boxed it up and took it in to the genius bar. We booted and viola! It shut down within a couple minutes. Then it shut off during boot. Then we powered it back on and it booted but shutoff within a few minutes.
    2.) Open console.app and go to /var/logs/system.log[number]
    Click on each one of these logs, hit control-R to load the whole log, and filter on "Previous" for Previous Shutdown Cause. This will show the genius exactly when the problem started and how often.
    3.) Be FIRM (not argumentative) and insist on having a new macine. Tell them you are very disappointed in having a brand new machine fail. Talk to a manager if necessary. I didn't have to ask twice. Apple knows this is a problem (unofficially), though the knowledge may vary from Apple Store to Apple Store and genius to genius, BUT it is known and you can reference the vast number complaining on this very board.
    Good Luck!!!
    BTW, my replacement week 24 machine have been running fine since I received it July 6. No problems yet.

  • Previous Shutdown Cause: 3

    Does anyone have any clue what this means? I don't understand computer-speak. My MacBook shuts down unexpectedly if it is left inactive for more than a couple minutes--sometimes the fan is running, most of the time it's not. Sometimes there are active applications, sometimes there aren't. Sometimes it's plugged into the adapter, sometimes it's on battery. Nothing is consistent except the fact that I can't walk away for 2 minutes to answer the phone or get a snack without returning to a shutdown computer.
    Help!
    Thanks.
    Here's what the system console says when I search for the term shutdown:
    Sep 5 14:30:56 localhost kernel[0]: Previous Shutdown Cause: 3

    My Macbook was purchased in mid August 2007, and it runs 10.4.10, so the earlier firmware problems shouldn't be the problem. I would call Apple Support, but I'm in the Middle East, so wherever I call will be long distance. I'm trying to resolve this problem independently. It will be a tremendous inconvenience if I have to travel to Rosh Haayyin (near Tel Aviv) to take it to an authorized repair location...or worse ship it back to the U.S.

    If you can get it to run long enough, try running your hardware tester. It sounds like it may be going into 'thermal shutdown.' You may have a thermal sensor acting up.

  • What does this mean? Aug 26 12:30:02 Tegans-MacBook-Pro kernel[0] Debug : Previous Shutdown Cause: -60

    My MacBook has been running really slowly lately so I followed username Link's advice to open the terminal and see what message comes up after I input the code that he gave. The message that came up was : Aug 26 12:30:02 Tegans-MacBook-Pro kernel[0] <Debug>: Previous Shutdown Cause: -60
    What does this mean?
    I've deleted all large files and apps that were taking up room. My computer is down to the bare minimum now.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Have you already verified/repaired the hard disk with Disk Utility? If not, do so.

  • Previous Shutdown Cause: 0

    I'm investigating on my Mac Pro2,1 randomly shutdown, and I discovered the concerning log in Console: "Previous Shutdown Cause: 0"
    Does anybody know what this "Cause: 0" means??

    The most frequent cause of uncontrolled power-off (not controlled shutdown) is overheating.

    Did you get a resolution ? My 1 month old iMac started to have the same issue. Shuts down randomly and I can't figure out why. I've noticed so far that it has done so when I'm not using it. For example I turned it on, work on it for few minutes and it works fine, I walk away for few minutes come back and it's off. And no it's not in standby mode it is completely off. Same thing happened to me few times already. I could be using it for few hours leave it and then when I come back minutes or hours after it's off. I'm getting the Previous Shutdown Cause: -128 code as well... I'm going to speak to apple support tonight and see what can they tell me about it.

  • Kernel: previous shutdown cause: -60

    My MacBook Pro stopped and started starting up randomly. I went and looked at the console and it said kernel: Previous Shutdown Cause: -60. Please help me I want to make sure this isn't serious.

    So I called Apple. Turns out this can sometimes happen (Kernel errors). So they walked me through resetting my kernel and from there they said to just watch it and if it happens again then they will walk me through running some more tests on it.

  • Previous Shutdown Cause: -62

    Does anyone know what the error code "-62" means? Unfortunately the list of published error codes at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1618 doesn't have it.
    My Intel Xserve spontaneously reboots when I try to encode 4 videos at once with Podcast Producer / Xgrid. It used to do that when encoding 1 or 2 videos, until I increased kern.maxnbuf and kern.maxvnodes. I got the idea from:
    http://lists.apple.com/archives/Macos-x-server/2007/Mar/msg00102.html
    ... they mention decreasing this value, but that made things worse for me. The server is a quadcore Intel with 12GB of RAM. When 3 videos are encoding, there is almost 7GB of free physical memory, so I don't see how adding a fourth would matter. After the spontaneous reboot, I see this in my logs:
    Oct 20 14:15:22 localhost kernel[0]: npvhash=4095
    Oct 20 14:15:23 localhost kernel[0]: Previous Shutdown Cause: -62
    Oct 20 14:15:31 localhost watchdogtimerd[63]: Automatic reboot timer enabled.
    I've increased it more, but it would be great to know what -62 means, how it relates to maxnbuf & maxvnodes, and why it causes a spontaneous reboot.
    Thanks!

    I see something pretty weird in my AppleFileServiceAccess.log file at the time of the crash:

  • Aug 10 18:34:08 localhost kernel[0]: Previous Shutdown Cause: -72??

    I am having the random shut down problem, and I am wondering what this:
    Aug 10 18:34:08 localhost kernel[0]: Previous Shutdown Cause: -72
    means.
    Specifically the "-72" part
    (It appears in the console after I restart after the random shut downs...)

    I was having the same problem and all of my codes were -72. However, I noticed that when I shut it down myself, the codes were also -72. In other words, there was no distinction between random shutdowns and intentional shutdowns.
    Since I got mine back from repair on Wednesday, my codes are now 3 or 0 when I shut it down myself. (I haven't tested this out, but I think they are 3 when I use the power button to shut down, and 0 when I do it via software.) Haven't had a random shutdown since getting it back (knock on wood). Also haven't had a code -72 since.
    It would be interesting to know if anyone who ISN'T having random shutdown problems is getting a code -72.

  • Consulte message: "previous shutdown cause: 5"

    My system has been shutting down randomly for the past several days. I'm trying to determine whether it's due to the Mac or to the peripherals. I brought it to an Apple store to have diagnostics run. They ran OK but one of the store "geniuses" checked the console messages and found this repeated message sequence, but couldn't interpret it:
    DirectoryService[35] Improper shutdown detected
    kernal systemShutdown false
    kernal Previous Shutdown cause: 5
    What does "shutdown cause 5" refer to?

    A shutdown cause of 5 is usually an OS-initiated shutdown.
    It results either from pressing the power button and then clicking 'Shutdown', or selecting Shutdown from the Apple menu.
    Shut your computer down normally, then power back up and look in Console.
    0 and 2 can indicate power loss, usually anything that's negative, like -128 or -60 is abnormal.
    If it's heat or battery related, you'll have a different code. The fact that it's showing up as 5 makes me wonder if the computer is experiencing a sudden loss of power...is it a laptop?
    A disclaimer: the codes differ slightly between models, I'm speaking from my experience, but Apple doesn't publish the meaning of the codes, so there's not a good way to be certain.

  • Explanation for "Previous Shutdown Cause: -83"

    Hi!
    Yap, my MBP also shuts down without any warnings etc.
    No, currently I don't want to directly find the magic cure for RSS.
    I'm just looking for simple answer. What does code "-83" means.
    Maybe somewhere exists some table for these codes?
    Record in system.log shows this:
    *Oct 22 13:01:52 localhost kernel[0]: Previous Shutdown Cause: -83*
    What does code -83 means? A battery, a power circuit, any sensors, anything ?

    IIRC -62 is the watchdog timer restart.
    The watchdog monitors the system to detect a hangup - some kind of error that prevents the machine from operating properly. If it doesn't detect any activity within a preset time it cycles the power and restarts the machine.
    Unfortunately there's little or no documentation I've found as to what, specifically, caused the problem (indeed, I've had machines restart because of this even though they're actively processing requests - or, at least, when none of my other monitoring had detected a problem). Consequently it's going to be a challenge to work out what, specifically, caused the restart.
    I do admit, though that the problem seemed to dissipate with later OS versions (my experiences were in the 10.4.[1-5] range and it hasn't been a problem recently. I've had no such issues, for example, with 10.5.anything.

  • Random Shutdown and Previous shutdown cause: -x2

    Hi,
    I had twice "random shutdown" for now. My MacBook is about 4 month old and It happend with about 3 weeks between them.
    I tried stress testing it with 'yes >/dev/null' heating it up and cooling it down several times but I could not reproduce the Problem. However, looking at older system.log files, I found the "Previous shutdown cause: -82" lines in there. My question: Some MBs seem to report -72, others -82 as the shutdown cause known as random shutdown but what actually is the difference? Is it possible to guess the time it will take to get it repaired depending on the shutdown cause (which obviously describe two different conditions)?
    Thanks a lot in advance and sorry for my somewhat clumsy english;-)
    Peter

    I don't know where you are in Austria, but I took my RSD macbook to mcshark in Vienna, and they repaired it, replaced the case, and returned it to me in one day. That was last Friday and it's been working great since. They knew all about the heat sink problem, didn't even ask for my user name or password, left my hard drive completely intact - they were absolutely super.
    If you are anywhere near Vienna, call McShark and make an appointment - they'll repair it quickly for sure.

  • Previous shutdown cause: -128 MacBook Pro 2008

    What does this mean?
    How do I stop this from happening?
    So far today this has happened over 15 times in the past 2 hours.

    Hi Baltwo!
    Previous shutdown -128 happening on a 2.1GHz MacBook running 10.5.8, too.
    Machine actually puts up the same "Are you sure you want to shutdown..." dialog box you get from pressing power button, with barely enough time to hit Cancel - if you're paying attention. Turn your back for an instant, and you'll miss it. Do nothing = off.
    Completely random. Battery in good condition and at 100%, AC adapter plugged in and OK, replaced OS (A&I), Reset PRAM, SMU..... sure would like to know what -128 means! Only happens when left unattended for awhile (all sleep, screen saver and related functions set to never or off). "userCanceledErr," huh. What's THAT mean?!
    Only other clue (maybe) was "Throttling respawn: Will start in 4 seconds. Arguments = (null)" and the only reason that caught my attention is because you _might_ have 4 seconds to cancel shutdown. Throttling respawn?

    My mac does not power on immediatly i need to press power on button few times. I notice also it is crushing while uploading files via dropbox or other Apps.
    I recently change battery because i had a problem with it.
    Thanks in advance for every advise.
    Best
