Security preference crashes

I cannot access security in system perferences. It produces a "system preferences quit unexpectedly" message.

OptionTrader,
But, did you migrate an account into this new, "clean" installation?
If so, then the task becomes searching for and finding whatever file (cache, plist, etc.) is causing the problem.
If not, something else is going on. It is not outside the realm of possibilities that you received a bad copy of the installer, one with an error so small that only certain things were affected. I would think it rare, since most "bad" installation disks either won't boot, or won't complete an installation when booted. I think a more likely possibility is a bad block on the internal hard drive. You erased, but did you "zero?" Snow Leopard is using some pretty hefty file system "mojo" to pull off the file compression that it implements, and I see potential here for exposure of a weak block on the drive. This would give you bad installation, if so.
I will say it again: There are no egregious bugs in Snow Leopard. There's a modifying adjective in that sentence: "egregious." I would consider the behavior you are seeing to be egregious, but not a bug. It is a problem. And problems can and should be solved. By us, if we're clever. What we cannot solve are issues caused by bugs. In any case, it is important to distinguish between the two classes, and identify where a given issue belongs.
Hey, I'm here to help you, and everyone else with problems. To that end, one thing that I attempt to do is discourage goose chasing. Snow Leopard works great for me, and I (usually) see no reason why it cannot work great for anyone else. When I do see that it isn't, I want to correct that.

  • Security Preferences Panel Crashes

    Hi:
    I recently bought a MacBook 2.16Hz. I imported all my data from my old iBook G4. Both are running MacOS X 10.4.10 with the latest system updates. The big problem is that when I try to open the Security Preference Panel on the MacBook, it keeps crashing. I've already tried deleting the plist for com.apple.security, but to no avail. Is there an way to solve this? So far, is the only non-working app on the MacBook
    Best Regards

    Create a new admin user account, log into it, and see if the Security prefPane works. If so, something's amiss in the original account. See the steps I posted for resolving conflicts/corrupt plists within an account at:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4703015
    If not, consider doing do an Archive & Install installation, saving user and network settings. Details are in http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120

  • System Preferences crash (on text-to-speech settings)

    Every time I try to change text-to-speech settings under System Preferences, it crashes.
    I was trying to change it because I was experiencing crashing in Skype, and Skype recommended I change the default voice for text-to-speech.
    All my data on this MacBook Pro came from my old MacBook Pro via a Time Machine restore. Not sure if this info is helpful or not!
    Here's the error message system preferences gives me:

    HI,
    Go to ~/Library/Preferences and move the com.apple.systempreferences.plist file to the Trash and restart your Mac.
    If that doesn't help, uninstall Skype and see if System Preferences crashes.

  • System Preferences crashes

    System Preferences crashes everytime I click on "Security", "Keyboard & Mouse", and "Sound". I got a Mighty Mouse for Christmas, and I need to change the settings of it. Everytime I click on "Keyboard & Mouse" it crashes. Can anybody help me? Thanks!

    Can you create a new Spare User?
    This will help you rule out user account corruption (and hardware/driver compatibility).
    Also, try the normal maintenance.
    http://www.gballard.net/macrant/osx_troubleshooting.html
    Also, try removing the MM hardware, and looking for driver updates (10.4 compatibility notes) on their site...

  • Security Preferences Pane does not open

    Hi,
    after installing Snow Leopard my Security Preferences Pane is not working anymore. When clicking on the security preferences I got the message that it is loading, but it is never opened.
    In the logs I found the following messages:
    Nov 15 21:31:46 fsmac quicklookd[331]: [QL] Can not get the user cache directory 'Permission denied'
    Nov 15 21:31:47 fsmac /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Frameworks/ATS.framewo rk/Support/fontd[332]: confstr failed for CS_DARWIN_USER_CACHEDIR

    Nov 15 21:33:49 fsmac com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.locationd): Throttling respawn: Will start in 1 seconds
    The last of these is repeated forever(?) and lots of crash reports are written. An example is attached to this message. Maybe the problem is related to my other question http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2234567&tstart=0.
    I have no clue how to fix the problem and I'd be very happy if some of you has a suggestion.
    Regards,
    Johannes

    Hello Johannes,
    Delete this file.
    com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    ~/Library/Preferences.
    Move that fille to the Trash and restart your Mac.
    If that doesn't help, create or logon to another user account and see if the problem exists there also.
    If it doesn't, then the issue is system wide, otherwise it's isolated to your user account only.
    System wide or not you could download and install the 10.6.2 combo update and see if that helps. You can do this even if you are already running 10.6.2. It contains fixes that might help.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL959
    After the installation, repair disk permissions.
    Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

  • System Preferences crashes when opened

    Hello everyone, my system preferences crashes whenever I try to access it. Using a 2006 macbook with OS X 10.5.8. I've checked out a few threads by other users with similar issues, but their solutions haven't worked for me. I've tried deleting library .plist files, the cache folder, and repairing disk permissions a while back. My computer otherwise runs fine, but not being able to change settings is getting to be a nuisance. Newest crash report below. thanks in advance for any advice.

    Hi, I can't tell for sure if it's a damaged OS component, or a damaged  icon png for some pref pane.
    Is this what you tried already?
    Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if things work OK in Safe Mode.
    Then move these files to the Desktop for now...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
    Reboot & test.
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.

  • How do I change security preferences to let me install an HP printer driver? Won't let me because not an "identified developer".

    Downloaded a printer driver from HP website for a p1102w laser printer. When I try to run the install package, I get a pop-up telling me that only App Store and "identified developers" application are allowed dur to my security preferences. When I try to change in System Preferences, the option to change is grayed out.
    Printer not working, Printer proxy displays no window. At an impasse...

    Right-click this file and select Open. You can also go to System Preferences > Security and Privacy and select Anywhere in Allow applications downloaded from. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5290

  • I want to install onyx but my security preferences won't let me download it. Is it safe to change them and download from an unidentified developer? Will they be able to access my information?

    I want to install onyx but my security preferences won't let me download it. Is it safe to change them and download from an unidentified developer? Will they be able to access my information?

    1. If you just want to run one application, control-click it and choose Open instead of changing the setting. This only needs to be done once per application.
    2. Ensure that you trust any software you choose to open in this way.

  • Can't install a .mpkg file - a Security Preferences issue?

    I'm having the  issue installiung a .mpkg file - it's an App from Pantone.
    The message says "Your security preferences allow installation of only apps from the Mac Store and identified developers"
    I went into the "get info" and made sure that "Installer" was selected under "Open With:" but that didn't fix it.

    Hello, you must be on 10.8!???
    By default Apple has changed the security settings to only allow installation of apps from the Mac App Store and identified developers. To change this permanently or temporarily go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy. On the General Tab click the little lock in the lower left corner to unlock the general preference pane.

  • What have i to do so my pdf security preferences are set each time i create  a pdf?

    Good morning,
    I'm looking for  the option so each time i create a pdf, my security preferences are on it automatically. I know the option on Adobe acrobat X but not on XI; any clue?
    Thanks in advance for answering my question.

    On acrobat X, I was using this option that we found in preferences.
    In that menu, i was looking for the button conversion au format pdf/convert to pdf, then microsoft office excel/word/powerpoint and i could set the important option: utiliser les dernières options de protection connues/use the last security's options known.
    However it disappears in the new version Adobe Acrobat XI.
    Can i have the same thing  in a different way?
    Respectfully,
    M. Vig

  • -to-Speech system preferences crashes

    I've used the text to speech several times in past. Haven't used for a couple months. When I select the Speech in Systems Preferences the display changes to the window for setup with the Text-to-Speech tab highlighed. The System Voice box shows "loading voices", then the Preferences crashes.
    Where are the files for this function located? Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Alan

    If you create a new user doe it happen in that account?
    If not, you may want to start removing preference files from the:
    Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername(home)/Library/Preferences folder.
    You might try this one:
    com.apple.speech.prefs.plist
    or if that doesn't help, try:
    com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    Move each to the Desktop and restart. If that doesn't help, they can be moved back to the original Preferences folder to replace the newly created ones.
    If it occurs in another user's account, you may need to do an Archive & Install.

  • "Security preferences" blocking widget download ... HELP!

    I  tried to download a dashboard widget from the Apple web site and my "security preferences" would not allow me to open the file since it did not come from the App store.  That seems silly.  What can I do?  I really want the "tea timer" widget!

    Control-click it and choose Open, or open the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences and shut that option off.
