Snow Leopard Kernel Panics when trying to Force Quit Applications

I have been having this problem for about a month now. I am a heavy After Effects CS4 user so this happens to me primarily when working in AE, but definitely is not exclusive to AE. I am working on a 8 Core 2.66 GHz MacPro with 8 GB of RAM. The only other variables are an AJA KONA LSe capture card and a ATTO Celerity FC-41ES Fibre Card. The videocard is the standard ATI Radeon HD 4870. My drivers and software are all up to date.

Hi Mike,
I have a very similar setup and am also using AE CS4 heavily. I am experiencing exactly the same issues, and have found that it is the multi-processing rendering app (aeselflink) that is causing the kernel panic when you force quit.
I have reduced the amount of times this happens by making AE only use 6 of the 8 cores available, in the Memory & Multiprocessing preference section.
I save my work before rendering or previewing and cross my fingers !

  • Late 2008 unibody MacBook Pro + 6GB RAM + Snow Leopard = Kernel Panic

    Hi,
    I've been trying to install Snow Leopard on my 2.8Ghz MacbookPro unibody (late 2008) with 6GB of RAM (4GB+2GB module).
    At first, I did an upgrade of my existing Leopard drive, and when booting back in 10.6, everything was crashing (could not open a single web browser but Safari, for instance), and I was getting kernel panics each 10 minutes.
    Then, I erased my boot disk and tried a clean install - I was getting kernel panics when installing! After 5 tries, it finally installed, and then I couldn't get through the welcome wizard the first time it boots.
    So I removed the 4GB RAM module, and re-installed a 2GB one, and then everything was fine, not a single problem.
    Take into consideration that that 4GB ram module was working perfectly under 10.5.8 (even while using the computer under a lot of stress) and passed all the hardware test.
    Has anyone been successful at running Snow Leopard 10.6 on a late 2008 Macbook Pro unibody and 6GB of RAM?

    Wow, this is really interesting! I own a UniBody MacBook Aluminum 13" 2.4 GHz 5,1 (October 2008) and ordered a 4 GB RAM module from OWC to max out my system to 6 GB for virtual machine use. I'd just performed a clean install of Snow Leopard a couple of days ago and was excited about the new operating system along with that additional RAM. But guess what? When I inserted the new 4 GB stick I suffered a kernel panic within minutes! I tried moving the module around between the two slots and inserting it on its own without the additional 2 GB module and the same lockups occured every time!
    Who ever would have thought this might be a problem with the new operating system rather than an incompatibility with the new module? OWC even agreed to refund my purchase but before I send the stick back I'll go ahead and install the original Leopard operating system and try again. Based on your experience I'm convinced the new stick will work and prefer more RAM than a newer operating system. Thanks to all of you for having posted this; I'd have never suspected an issue with Snow Leopard otherwise. In fact, I was hoping to be able to upgrade to 8 GB of RAM with 10.6. Turns out we may be better off with 10.5.8, at least for now!

  • My Macbook has a Kernel Panic when trying to boot from Mac OS Install DVD

    It might also be relevant that my Accounts Preference Panel crashes System Preferences when I try to open it. Disk Utility sees no problems with my drive, and booting into single user mode and doing a disk check has no results.
    I am running a 2010 Macbook
    2GB Ram
    2.4 Duel Core Processor
    Mac OS 10.6.8
    Windows Installed Via Bootcamp, but problems occured before Windows was installed as well.
    Anything Else that I need to add?

    Try reinstalling Snow Leopard. If you continue getting a kernel panic booting from the DVD, then either you have a bad installer disc or you have a hardware failure.
    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

  • Kernel panic when trying to use spotlight with external display attached

    Having an issue with my fairly new MacBook Pro (purchased in April). When it's connected to an external display, I will get a kernel panic 100% of the time if I click on the Spotlight icon. The same also happens sometimes when clicking Documents or Downloads in the dock, but that is infrequent. This only happens with an external display attached and I have tried multiple external displays and cables. Following is the kernel panic report. I don't really know how to read it, so if anyone has suggestions they would be much appreciated.

    As a first debugging step, try rebooting in safe mode:

    and see if the panics occur then, though quite frankly it appears it may be an issue with your video card and/or drivers.

  • Leopard Kernel panic - when rebooted main user account is gone

    The title describes my problem well I think. My macbook running Leopard had a kernel panic. When I rebooted, the user account was gone. I booted from the Leopard DVD to reset the password, and reset the password of the root account and a mobile account - to which I have forgotten the password - with admin privileges. Neither one will log on. I'm pretty sure the mobile account will need the domain controller to successfully log on.
    The root user I have never activated, so I suppose I can't use that. And without the ability to log in I can't seem to think of a way to activate it either.
    There's a guest account available. And it works alright.

    Will either of the two accounts log in while booted in safe mode (hold down the shift key at boot time)?

  • Kernel panic when trying to start a OEL5u5 template vm

    Hi,
    I am in the process of following a guide to setup various oracle vm templates, so far I have installed OVS 2. 2 and got the OVM Manager working, imported the template for OEL5U5 and created a vm from it.. the problem comes when starting that vm.
    The log in the OVMM console shows the following;

    It's probably a logic board or connection issue.

  • Kernel panic when trying to upgrade from OS X 10.7.5

    Running an intel imac with os x 10.7.5, I tried upgrading to mavericks. After downloading and try to restart, I get a persistent kernel panic. Have used disk utility from recovery HD to repair permissions and repair disk. Still get kernel panic screen on restart. What now?

    If you can't boot in the usual way, try a safe boot. During startup, you’ll see a progress bar, and then the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out these instructions. Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. If you're able to boot, launch the Console application in any of the following ways: ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid. Select the most recent panic report (with a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic") under the heading System Diagnostic Reports on the left. If you don't see that heading, select  
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar. Post the entire contents of the report — the text, please, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header and body of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don't post any other kind of diagnostic report, such as a hang report.

  • Kernel panic when I try startx: edited again

    I just reinstalled arch (slight mishap yesterday :oops: ) I'm running testing, have installed xorg, kde, ati stuff, etc. When I try to startx I get a "kernel panic not syncing". Has something to do with xorg configeration.
    Any ideas :?:
    If I just run xorgconfig no panic when I then run aticonfig etc panic.
    For the moment I've given up on fglrx and am just trying radeon. the message I get says the system can't find the radeon driver    :?:

    KeepItSimple:
    If you're getting a kernel panic when trying to install, then I'd start with RAM and the installation disks.
    RAM: Panther has higher standards for RAM than does 10.2.x; if you have more than one RAM module, take one out (assuming that leaves you with at least 128 MB) and try again. If it panics again, try switching the RAM. As far a brand names go, I prefere Kingston or Azen RAM.
    Installation Disks: if they're grey, they won't work. Grey installation disks are packaged with specific Macs, and only contain hardware drivers for that specific Mac. You need the retail version of the disks, which were sold in a black box. There are four CDs in the set, three of which are for installing the OS (the fourth contains Developer Tools). The three OS disks are black with a large silver X in the middle.
    Good luck!

  • Kernel Panic when I try to install OSX 10.3. Can anyone help?

    I bought this iMac recently. It has OS 10.2.? installed and OS 9.1. When I try to install OS 10.3 I get a Kernel Panic when it reboots to start the installation. I ran the Norton Disk Doctor it had over in OS9 -- said it fixed some things and now ok but I still get a Kernel Panic trying to install Panther. I just want to re-format the whole computer with 10.3 and get rid of 9. How can I do that?
    Thanks.

  • Kernel panic when using external hard drive for library

    I have been using an external hard drive to manage my iTunes library for over a year. As of today, I have had three kernel panics when trying to use iTunes. I was downloading a purchase from the music store and the first panic occurred. Subsequent panics occurred immediately on startup of iTunes. Using the guest account (with default internal drive library settings), everything works fine. Both drives have been verified by Disk Utility and all software is up-to-date. No clue how to proceed.

    Yes, but you need to have the external drive on and mounted when starting iTunes. You can add the external HD to your log in items list in System Preferences -> Accounts to handle this.
    This explains how to move your files: iTunes for Mac-Moving your iTunes music folder: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1449

  • Kernel panic when booting from DVD or external drive

    Hey Folks,
    I have a 13" MBP, seems to run fine for the most part.
    However, I can't boot from DVDs or external hard drives. Disk Warrior, my and a tech support buddy of mine's OSX Snow Leopard DVDs, and external boot disks all cause a kernel panic when selected from the alternate boot menu when rebooting with alt.
    The DVD/External spins up, the loading spinner goes for about 20-30 seconds, and then BAM - Kernel panic. I'd reinstall OSX... but I can't!
    Any suggestions? I'd rather not send the computer to a tech for a week - I need it daily for work.

  • TS3742 Kernel Panic when I am updating the software

    I am having the Kernel Panic when I am updating the software I tried 3 times every time the Kernel Panic thing appears, how can I resolve that?

    Start with posting the latest KP report. Then, cite the update.

  • What is wrong with my user account?? Why do I get kernel panic when restart

    Hi there. I got Leopard and was quite unhappy (don't think it was meant for a powerbook). So I started using Tiger again, and I flip flopped once or twice after the update came out for Leopard, thinking/hoping it would fix my problems. It didn't. I have given up on Leopard.
    But, now Tiger seems to have a few problems of its own. I get the kernel panic when I restart my computer (telling me to restart), so I have to hold down the power button to turn it off and then turn it back on. Not a big deal, but if it shouldn't be doing that, I don't want it to, ya know? Never did it before Leopard.
    My user account seems to be dysfunctional when it comes to downloading plug-ins for safari or firefox. I had to create a new user account and download the plug in from that account and then drag it into the HD to use it on my user account. I repaired disk permissions and booted from Tiger and did the same thing on there. After that, my user account is still not able to download that plug-in without getting errors (256)?
    Is there a way to do a reinstall of Tiger from a blank slate, and be sure there won't be any problems?
    Thanks!

    Leopard will work with your Powerbook, the question is, is all your software and hardware ready for it?
    Is there a way to do a reinstall of Tiger from a blank slate, and be sure there won't be any problems?
    You can start from a blank slate, but if you have a hardware problem that started to generate itself, a blank slate won't solve it. It is called an erase and install. The first thing to do is backup your data*:
    http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
    Once that is done at least twice, we can start looking at solutions for kernel panics*:
