Shuts Down While Rendering

Recently, my iMac has developed the following behavior:after about 15 minutes of rendering, display goes dark, machine goes silent and rendering stops. After I "wake it up" (mouse click does the trick), rendering resumes for, say 5 minutes, then shuts down. After several on-off-on cycles, it may only render for 10-15 seconds. If I let it sit for about 15 minutes, instead of powering right back up, it may render for several minutes before again quitting. Everything otherwise (capturing, editing, playback) seems to work fine.
Preferences have been set for audio and video rendering on my external drive (which has about 200 GB free).
What I've tried so far:
checked energy saver settings
trashed FCE preferences
repaired permissions
verified HD
switched FW connections from one port to the other
changed FW cable
tried rendering a simple test sequence of several TIFs and a 15 second DV clip
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and sorry that my profile was a little out of date.
To elaborate on the Apple tech's advice: it was to archive reinstall Tiger to roll back to an earlier QT version.
I first need to finish this project before even considering following the reinstall advice. It's finally rendered, although it was a really drawn out and frustrating multi-day ordeal.

Premiere Pro CS4 crashes and system shuts down while rendering

Hi All,
Good morning everyone, my system shuts down while rendering using Adobe media encoder from premiere pro. I have tried the following:
1.Completely removing CS4 and reinstalling.
2. Updating all the video drivers.
3. Re installing the Operating System (XP and Vista)
But the issue persists, i have attached the crash report and any thoughts are highly appreciated.
Regards,
Vincent

A number of problems pop out of your DXDIAG:
Both your video driver and your audio driver are more than 3 years old.
Your F drive is slow, because of the fill rate of 90%. You lack other hard disks.
You have Matrox, BlackMagic, Nero, Sony, DivX and other stuff installed. It has been a long time ago that I have seen such a long list of DirectShow filters installed.
Suggestions: Update your drivers, clean up your F drive and add another disk, remove all that Matrox stuff, possibly include BlackMagic and Sony.
What export/encoding settings do you use from what sequence settings?

PC Shutting Down when Rendering

I have used Premiere for many years/versions now and have had a persistent problem of the computer shutting down while rendering, regardless of the system.
My current computer is a laptop (Clevo 900DF for those familiar with that brand) with the following specs:
- i7 960 3.2 GTHz *desktop* processor
- 6 Gb DDR3 ram
- Windows Ultimate x64
- 2 WD 250Gv harddrives (working as 1 striped drive)
The shut-down problem is inconsistent, but occurs most when I got a number of effects on the videos, esp. things like level changes, or more recently, when I try to include a logo I created in After Effects in the video.
Previously I thought the problem was with my systems (both desktops, on XP and one a dual core Vista x64 machine), but now I am having the same problems on my laptop and it's getting very frustrating.
I am going to check into getting some better external cooling (hard to adjust internal cooling in a laptop) and wonder if this is a problem others have had and if so, what solutions you found. Could the inclusion of the AE logo watermark be causing my problems? (The render time is also very long, yesterday it was over 2 hours to render a 17 minute HD video to the H.264 YouTube widescreen preset.)
Thanks,
Julie

Julie,
A computer shutdown, whether you see a BSOD, or not, is most often related to hardware, and most often to overheated hardware.
Take a look at this ARTICLE, for some tips, and tools.
After all possible hardware causes have been exhausted (but not until you have tested them all), then you will probably be looking at a driver issue with the OS.
Good luck,
Hunt

Potential Args, Computer shutting down while playing a game

I've only had this mac for 5 months, but it keeps shutting down while I'm playing StarCraft II. It should be able to handle the game, but it keeps telling me to restart and I have no idea what the error says or means. I'm not sure what (4 potential args on stack) means. I'm not sure if it is a frame rate issue and how to fix it or change the frame rate if needed. Any help would be much appreciated. The error is below:

You are only just beginning to feel the pain of Starcraft II on your Mac. Have you seen this List of problems?
Blizzard created the junk, and it's up to them to properly patch it. The list of other well known and respected programs it's incompatible with (LittleSnitch, AppCleaner, FileVault, and PeerGuardian to name a few) doesn't give me a warm and fuzzy.
The page also mentions that your CPU can overheat, for whatever reason, and that means total failure for a laptop or early component damage to a motherboard. Gee, that sounds like something that shouldn't be run on a regular basis.

Premiere Elements 11 shut down while starting; without error message

hello everybody,
pe11 worked well at my Laptop.
Since a week it always shut down while starting it.
No error message!
I already reinstalled it, tried to start with admin rights, but it doesn't work.
Thanks for your answers!

Premiere Elements 11 on Windows 7 64 bit.
Before a week ago, how long had you been working with Premiere Elements 11 on Windows 7 64 bit without problems?
Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
Is your video card/graphics card up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card?
Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on that computer with Premiere Elements 11?
Any new programs, 3rd party plug-ins and codecs, installed?
Where are the Scratch Disks directed and how much free space is at those designated locations? Any pile ups
of preview files in the Adobe Premiere Elements Preview Files Folder or conformed audio files in the Media Cache
Files Folder.
Let us get the classic deletion of the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file out of the way.
Local Disk C
Users
Owner
AppData
Roaming
Adobe
Premiere Elements
11.0
and in the 11.0 Folder is the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file that you delete. If that does not work, then delete the whole 11.0 Folder
in which it exists. Be sure to be working with Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active so that you can see the complete path cited.
Depending on how things are going, you might also include right clicking the desktop icon for the program, selecting and applying Run As
Administrator.
Let us work through the above and then, based on your results, we can decide what next if necessary.
Thank you.

Mac book pro trys to shut down while downloading?

my mac book pro trys to shut down while im downloading for some reason..

Hi Monroeeugene,
I'm not sure if you mean shutting down or going to sleep ... but this article will explain how to change your sleep settings so your downloads don't get interrupted.
Mac Basics: Set your preferences
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2490
Change your Mac's sleep settings
To conserve energy, all Macs have the ability to sleep. When you haven't used your Mac for a set amount of time, it enters a low-power mode until you wake it by pressing the keyboard, trackpad, or moving the mouse. Sleep doesn't turn off your computer; it merely puts it into an inactive state that consumes less power.
Open System Preferences
Choose View > Energy Saver.
Choose the Power Adapter or Battery tab. If you're using a desktop Mac (a Mac mini, iMac, or Mac Pro), the Power Adapter and Battery tabs do not appear.
Move the sliders for both the computer and display to change the times in which they go to sleep.
Select any other options you want, such as sleep and wake.
Hope this helps ...

Photoshop shut down while I drew a picture, now the file is broken and I can´t fix it, photshop won´t open the file and I have tried repearing it with different programs. What should I do?

Photoshop shut down while I drew a picture, now the file is broken and I can´t fix it, photshop won´t open the file and I have tried repearing it with different programs. What should I do? I spent 6 hours on the pic and I dont even have a screenshot or anything.

You don't even say what platform you are on, or any other details that may help others assist you.
If you are on a Mac, try opening your file in GraphicConverter (they have a demo version) if that doesn't open it, nothing will, in my experience.
I assume you have tried Adobe Illustrator already to recover.
You may also have a JPEG of your complete file (flattened) in Bridge Cache.
On the Mac you'd find it in your User ~Library (NOT the Root Library ):
Users > yourname > Library > Caches > Adobe > Bridge CS6 > Cache > 1024 > jpg(fileID)number Filename.psd.jpg
The user ~Library is hidden, but you can make it visible for an moment or two. Ask Apple if you don't know how.

MacBook randomly shuts down while watching streaming video

I've been having a problem lately with my MacBook randomly shutting down. I initially thought it was due to overheating which was logical considering I was using my MacBook in bed and the computer was very hot when it would shut off, but I've recently started using a TV-Table top for it to sit on when I'm using it in bed. My MacBook continues to shut down and the computer isn't nearly as hot as it was prior to using the TV-Table top, it is just warm. It's definitely not a battery issue because this happens when I'm using the power source as well. *I think I've noticed that this only happens when I'm in Firefox watching online streaming video on sites such as YouTube.* I never use Safari so I'm not sure if the problem would occur in Safari or not. I tried installing the MacBook SMC Firmware Update v1.1 but it said my computer didn't need it.

I have the same problem, every once in a not-so-blue moon my macbook pro shuts down while streaming video. It only happens when streaming video. Just watched some of the new south park episode, and it shut down on me! It really ticks me off!!!!!

MAC AIR SHUTS DOWN WHILE STREAMING

My MacBook Air shuts down while streaming video. I am using safari and it works for a while but then shuts down and will not restart for quite some time. When it restarts I have to immediately close the video window or it will shut down again. I have the latest version of flashplayer.

This sounds like an overheating issue. Flash requires a surprisingly high level of resources. Do you hear your fans running at all while you are playing the videos?
Download the free iStat Pro widget directly from Apple:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/status/istatpro.html
It will show you both your fan speeds and temperature. Start playing a video and let it play for a short while (sometime before it typically shuts off... but long enough to let things warm up). Then check the temp and fan speed. Do this while the video is still playing as things can cool off pretty fast after you stop playing the video. Post the numbers back here.

MacBook Pro (Mid-2009) shuts down while running on battery

Hi,
Five months ago, my MacBook Pro 15'' (2.53Ghz) started showing me the message 'Service Battery'. I took it to an Apple Store and I was told that everything is still fine. Nevertheless, for the past 2 months my laptop shuts down while running on battery (with 20% and 40% levels of charge) periodically. This does not happen every time.
Does anyone know if AppleCare covers this failure?
Is there any other way to fix this?
Thank you,
George

Mine does the same thing. May i suggest downloading istat pro to look at the health of your battery.
http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/status/istatpro.html
Also do you calibrate your battery?
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1490
I had never done that but after 15 months and 450+ cycles I was experiencing the same problem. I am a heavy user of my mbp 15" (2.4Ghz). After calibrating my health in istat which was going between 30-53 % Is holding steady around 65-mid 70% health wise. I have also noticed that my battery icon has gone from service battery to replace now to holding at replace soon for the time being.
I am not sure how many cycles you can get out of one battery but as far as i know 700ish is good. While i wish i was closer to an apple store (3ish hrs or more) i do hope i have helped you.

IMac G5 Shuts down while running applications

I installed iLife '06.
Since then my iMac G5 (20") has started shutting down while I'm working.
I'm not sure if the installation is related to the intermittent shut down or if there is another problem.
Someone told me that the fan might be bad. I don't know how to check if the fan is bad. I've heard that some iMac's have noisy fans. I've never heard the fans on my iMac.
I've had my iMac for ten months with no problems.
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

There are two common reasons for an iMac G5 to shut-down:
1) a failing power supply (see the article A. Brody mentioned).
2) Over-heating.
I'll tackle the second one.
All the recent Macs have a protection mechanism built-in. If the system gets beyond a given temperature, the computer will turn itself off (without warning) to prevent permanent damage.
So, if you notice that the computer is running warm before it shuts-off, then that could be the cause.
But, it is also very likely to be the power supply.
And, operating with a faulty power supply could lead to tons of other problems or damage.
So, I would personally get it into a shop for inspection and repair very fast.
But, if it is under warranty, you should not have any trouble at all getting it fixed (either standard warranty or AppleCare).
If it's warranty has expired, see if it is within the covered systems listed in the article A. Brody gave you.
If so, request it to be inspected and repaired for free under terms of that extension.
Regardless of which problem it is, get it fixed. Neither problem is one that should be ignored.
Hope this helps.

My imac suddenly shuts down while on line.

My imac suddenly shuts down while on line. It has to be unpluged for a couple of hours before it will restart. Could it be the battery dying? Any other sugestions?

Which iMac..? Go to > How to identify iMac models
1. Reset the SMC > Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Reset the PRAM and NVRAM > Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
Then test it for a time and report back.
You also might want to give the Extended Apple Hardware Test a run, as per > Intel-based Macs: Using Apple Hardware Test to see if it turns up a hardware problem.

I have loaded pics from that camera before. Now, shuts down while uploading. So, I closed Iphoto and tried again. Same. Checked for updates. I opened Iphoto without the camera attached and it wants to upload the same pics. I try, and it quits.
On a side note, Last night I could not print. It did not see the printer. Checked the printer with a PC. Works like a champ.
Thanks,
Bud

Bud,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Look just inside your Home/ Pictures/ iPhoto Library folder for a folder named "Importing." If you see it, drag it out to the desktop. Launch iPhoto and see if that clears up the attempt to import. Use the Finder to look inside the Importing folder - if it has files you need in your library you can go ahead and import them.
Warning: Do not make any other changes to the items inside the iPhoto Library folder from the Finder, as damage to your library can result. If you don't see an "Importing" folder, then leave everything alone and report back.
Regards.
