System crashes when iPhone tethered for internet (2011 i7 2.3Ghz)

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone else has stumbled across this issue..
My MacBook Pro 15" 2.3Ghz i7 gives me constant grief when connected by cable to my iPhone 3GS for internet tethering.
Whenever it is connected in this way, it will run for anywhere between 3-10 minutes before coming to an abrupt halt with the multi-language "You need to restart your computer. Hold down the power button until it turns off, then press the power button again" message. Every time I submit a report upon reboot but it still keeps occuring.
I was hoping it would get fixed on the last system update, but it's just happened to me two nights running repeatedly. As a result, after 3 repeat issues on both nights I resorted to booting into my BootCamp Windows 7 partition and tethered via the iPhone there and all was fine (except for being stuck using windows again...)
I'm now back home and using my regular wifi internet connection and everything is just as it should be again in OS X.
Any clues as to what I could do to remedy the tethering/crashing issue?
Cheers!

I am having the same exact same issue with my 3GS being tethered to my brand new macbook pro. No issues on wifi. It's really furstrating. Any clue how to resolve this?

  • Installed E3000 now system crashes when online

    Soon after installing the E3000 I began to experience frequent system crashes when online.  Installation seemed to progress without any issues.  PC, Windows XP Pro SP3, is wired though router, also able to access net with netbook, Windows 7 Starter, without issues.  After several crashed I pulled up the event log and here is what I found.  Tried to use Linksys online chat for assistance but they said the problem was with my computer and that I needed to contact my vendor.  Since I built this pc I'm on my own and would appreciate any guidance on how to serolve this.
    Thank you for your time.

  • My Photoshop CS6 always crashes when I lose my Internet connection...why?

  • System crashes when put to sleep or restart

    My system crashes when put to sleep or when I click re-start. This also happens when applications start and need to take over the entire screen. Once it crashes, I cannot start the computer for approx 5 minutes. I cannot re-start in safe mode because it also crashes. I cannot start with the application disc because the dvd drive pops open when I start the system. I have tried shutting the system down from the menu bar and the screen exits to the desktop window, but doesn't shut off. I have used disc utility to repair permissions and have re-set the pram, but the problem remains. I have a G4 gigabit/ethernet, running OSX 10.4.11, with an Apple Studio Display and ATI Radeon 9000 Pro graphics card. This has been going on for a while - I am not sure if it started when I installed OSX tiger or when I added two new ram memory chips (I have four added, 2 512 SDRAMM and 2 128 SDRAMM). Please advise. Thank you.

    I am not sure if it started when I installed OSX tiger or when I added two new ram memory chips (I have four added, 2 512 SDRAMM and 2 128 SDRAMM).
    The absolute first step in troubleshooting is to remove the recently added RAM.
    That will remove question regarding the RAM.
    Have you tried a Safe Mode boot (hold Shift while booting)?
    This will allow for automatic system repairs. While in safe mode, does the sleep function work?
    From Safe mode, does the restart function work?
    If after removing the RAM, and after Safe mode, the problem persists, a PMU reset may be worth trying.
    The PMU controls all power functions, sleep and shut down and start. Corruption in the PMU will cause problems with these functions, and a reset will clear this up if the PMU is the root cause.

  • Word Crashing When Discarding Checkout for Document Stored in SharePoint

    We have recently noticed an issue when we have a Word file checked out from SharePoint, if we then discard the checkout from Word, Word crashes. The error details point to an issue in wwlib.dll.
    Having done some further investigation into this it appears this only happens if the document has an attached template which contains a custom ribbon.  We use SharePoint 2013 and Word 2010, although I have tested using Word 2013 with the same results.
    This was noticed on our company templates which contain a custom ribbon tab and a number of custom buttons. I have since tested it by creating a template with a single button on a custom tab with the same results.
    Has anyone else come across this issue and and is there any way to resolve it?
    Thanks,
    Richard

    Hi Daniel,
    Thanks for the response.
    The issue only happens when discarding checkout. Editing and saving a document back to SharePoint does not cause an issue. I am using a dotm template. I am not storing the template
    as a content type. When I say I created a custom tab, this was created by adding the XML to create the ribbon tab and button. I used the 'Custom UI Editor for Microsoft Office' to add this. The file created for this is called customUI14.xml and the
    XML is as follows (in the basic test template that I created):
    <customUI xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2009/07/customui">
    <ribbon startFromScratch="false">
    <tabs>
    <tab id="customTab" label="Custom Tab">
    <group id="customGroup" label="Custom Group">
    <button id="customButton" label="Test Ribbon Button" imageMso="HappyFace" size="large" onAction="TestRibbonCrash" />
    </group>
    </tab>
    </tabs>
    </ribbon>
    </customUI>
    The code this points to is as follows:
    Sub TestRibbonCrash(ByRef Ctrl As IRibbonControl)
        MsgBox "Ribbon button working"
    End Sub
    Following your reply I have tested it by adding a custom tab and button through the GUI and the problem doesn't occur when using that method of creating the tab and button.
    I will see if I can find anything useful in the ULS logs although no correlation ID is displayed when the error happens and in my experience even with a correlation ID, 99% of the time the ULS logs don't provide any useful information.
    I've also observed that Word doesn't crash if I discard checkout when I have another document open at the same time which is based on the same template.
    I have already posted on a MS Word forum. Is there more chance of getting some help on one of the other Word forums you have suggested?

  • Is anybody else experiencing crashes when installing iTunes for Windows?

    Is anybody else experiencing crashes when installing iTunes for Windows?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box (similar to those given above) are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • Flash CS5.5 crashes when exporting movieclip for Actionscript

    Hello,
    My Flash CS5.5 crashes when exporting movieclip for Actionscript (select movieclips -> modify -> convert to symbol -> check export for actionscript). I think this only happens when Photoshop CS5 is open.
    Does anyone know how to fix this? I'm using Win7 64-bit. The only open programs are Flash, Photoshop, and Firefox.

    Oddly enough, I opened up Flash again, today, just to see if it was still the same, and it had worked. Everything seemed normal, I opened a new document and started working. Then, out of nowhere it stopped responding again. So I waited for it to respond, it didn't. I closed it from the task manager, and now it's back to the original problem of crashing when I try to create a new document or open an old ontrie
    Update: I tried the cleaner, as you'd suggested. Followed all the steps, but to no avail. Think it may have something to do with my machine, and less with the software?

    My outgoing email as stopped working when using Outlook for mac 2011. I have deleted and reinstalled the account twice. I have 11 gig free on my iCloud account. The outgoing server is set at smtp.mail.me.com using port 587. If I was able to reinstall the account, I am positive I have the correct password. I can log into my iCloud accout using the same credentials.

    All is working fine since doing so.

    This might be one of the more confusing and less than clear questions I have come across here.  I don't use gnome or really any of this software that you use.  But from what I can decipher above, you seem to have two problems.
    First, it is not connecting consistently.  In order to fix this, you reinstall the software?  Am I reading that right?
    Second, once you do get a connection, you experience a kernel panic?  This is where the kernel has an oops and cannot recover, so it dumps its contents/errors to the screen.  Is this what is happening?
    Basically, you need to be more clear about what you are experiencing.  It would seem that English is not your first language, but that should not stop you from at least phrasing your question in a way that says more than "I click this" and "I click that".  Have you checked your logs at all to see if there is anything revealing there?

  • PC crashes when Iphone connected

    Hello
    For some time now, every time I plug my iphone into my laptop it causes a system crash. I've installed latest version of iTunes. It worked all fine when I first had my iphone and works fine when I plug my iphone into my work computer. But everytime into my laptop, crash. It is very very frustrating. I've tried plugging it in when off, plugging it in when on, makes no difference. As soon as it starts my iphone in itunes it crashes. What's causing this problem?
    Thanks

    I had a similar problem - my iphone synced fine at first then started crashing the PC after a few days. After reading the reply above - good call Lawrence - I deleted the few photos I had taken on the camera roll and it works fine again. I still need to find which drivers to update but at least I can do everything now except use the camera. Thanks

  • Fcpx 10.1.4 crashes when iPhone 4s is connected to iMac

    When I connect my iPhone 4S running the latest iOS 8.3 is connected to my 2014 iMac 27 running Yosemite 10.10.2 Final Cut Pro X 10.1.4 crashes. If I do successfully connect the phone, FCPX crashes when I attempt to import video from the iPhone. I have never successfully imported anything from my iPhone to FCPX. It's kind of a drag to shut down FCPX to import or download video direct to the iMac HDD and then import to FCPX, but it does work. Any suggestions?

    I still have the trial 10.0.3 download, but unforunately can't run it because it's expired.
    There's another guy here that seems to be having similar issues importing AVCHD (same as my GH2).
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/18147371#18147371
    I removed the problem media and was able to continue for awhile without it on my macbook air while I was away.  Now that I'm back home on my 2009 era mac mini I have since imported more footage and encoutering the same thing on this system (also, unfortunately updated to 10.0.4).  It was at a point where it'd crash everytime it opened.  After a few times it wouldn't crash on opening, but I found that if I scrolled up through the clips in the event viewer, as soon as one particular one started to appear it would crash.  The problem clips seem to probably be higher bit rate because they have more motion like steadicam or slider in front of moving trees.
    There's stuff related to AVCHD in my crash reports.  I looked inside the app package and saw this file.  I compared it to the files inside the package from the trial and it's definately been updated.  I haven't experimented yet, but I thought about trying to copy the old AVCHD plugin to the new version and see if it can handle my footage better, but I don't know what else breaks if it's expecting access to new features or something.

  • My system crashes when i use my soundblaster on my KT6 delta LSR

    (English is not my native language, so sorry for the mistakes)
    Hi, i'm new here and i need help, i just bought a KT6 Delta LSR (integrated 5.1 sound) and i want to use my good old soundblaster live! 5.1 but when i disable de integrated sound and plug my sound card the system, in the middle of windows operation (windows always boot), all of a suddden crashes or simply the sound freezes and stay in the same sound over and over again and then the whole system hangs and i have to reboot the system.
    I have no idea of what could be causing the problem...
    When i use the integrated sound it works fine and in stranges cases (for example: when i'm connected to the internet for more than 30 minutes) the system hangs, but with the sound card would not work 15 minutes ok.
    Hope you can help me.... Thanks

    Hi, i have noticed something.... it seems like the sound card has nothing to do with the problem, because i also have my system hanging when i use my modem (which is also a pci device), so i guess that the problem is someway related to the pci bus, can anyone help me???
    The system works fine when i don't use the sound card or the modem, if i put some music it hangs before the first song ends, and with the modem it takes like 30 miutes to freeze, and i have to reboot.
    Wish someone can help me.

  • PC Crashes when iPhone docks

    I have a Dell M1210 notebook running WinXP(latested updates)with Norton Anti-Virus installed. The PC runs fine as does iTunes. Plug in the iPhone dock, all OK! Plug in the iPhone and just after recognizing the phone as a digicam, the whole system crashs!! Windows Blue screen. I ran a Dell crash anyalyzer which brought up this Symantec driver as a possible issue: NavEx15.Sys.
    Has anyone else experienced similar problems?? Help?

    I would have to suggest uninstalling Norton completely to see if that makes a difference. I can remember multiple times when Norton was the culprit in causing troubles with my pc's, I uninstalled it years ago and never went back. Although doing that didn't get rid of all my pc troubles, it done away with a bunch. You may also check Nortons website to see if there has been any reports of the same type of thing going on, there may be a fix/updated driver. It could also be that your Dell troubleshooter is wrong and it is something else. Do you have any other cameras installed? There have been a lot of reports about this problem on this forum.
