System Profiler Crashes Lacie ext not mounting

Sometime after updating to 10.4.9, I noticed my external Lacie firewire is not mounting. I have disconnected/reconnected Lacie HD. I have ran Permissions from direct CD, reset PRAM, HD not visual in DiskUtility, Diskwarrior, or System Profiler. When I launch System Profiler and check fireware, SP crashes. The report reads:
Exception: EXCBADACCESS (0x0001)
Codes: KERNPROTECTIONFAILURE (0x0002) at 0x00000000
I have not moved Apple apps around. SP is able to run other checks just not firewire. How can check my fireware connections?

  • System Profiler sees LaCie ext. d2 Blu-ray as an int. Pioneer BDR-205

    I recently updated to Snow Leopard, Final Cut Studio 7 and Toast 10 with a new LaCie d2 Blu-ray burner.
    Toast sees my LaCie as an internal Pioneer BDR-205 for some reason. I checked the System Profiler under firewire drives, and it says the same thing.
    Why??? How can I fix this???
    Thanks!
    Casey

    System Profiler is correct. The blu-ray drive in the LaCie d2 is, indeed, a Pioneer BDR-205. LaCie doesn't make their own drives, they make the enclosures and controllers.
    When you look under FireWire, it should list the device referring to the controller (LaCie). When it refers to the burner, it should generally identify the device attached to the controller (Pioneer). The rationale is pretty straight forward. When using the device as a simple storage device, the controller is the party responsible for brokering that activity. However, when accessing the disc's burning function, additional information about the drive's attributes, commands, and capabilities is required and so the connected device is directly addressed.
    Was the representation in System Profiler causing some sort of problem?

  • System Profiler crashes when I try to save.

    System Profiler crashes when I try to save. It starts to save it then crashes and I can't view the report.

    Hi Lindsay, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Could be many things, we should start with this for safety...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
    5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    Try deleting this file & reboot...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SystemProfiler.plist
    Does it work now?

  • System Profiler Crashes When Saving

    Hi,
    I am trying to the xml file from System Profiler. Every time I attempt to save, System Profiler crashes when it reaches "Applications". It is reporting the following error:
    Application Specific Information:
    SPApplicationsDataType
    * error for object 0x101040208: incorrect checksum for freed object - object was probably modified after being freed.
    I have tried running System Profiler immediately after a restart incase there was an application running and creating this error. Any advice would be amazing. Thanks!

    Douglas you are not alone on this. I have the same exact problem on my iMac i7, showing the same exact error in the crash report. I even used Disk Utility to partition my internal hard drive, after which I reinstalled OS 10.6 from the iMac's master DVD, and after that I installed all the updates via the internet. Even in the perfectly clean condition, I get a crash when I try to save the ASP report. It also crashes when I do the same via the Terminal.
    It's quite amusing really. The only reason I am trying to save an ASP report is because I filed a bug report about my iMac locking up once a week when I wake from sleep, and Apple Engineering asked me to save the ASP Report for them. But I cannot save it due to a crash. So I submitted crash logs to Apple Engineering in the same bug report. I suggest you do the same. It would appear to be a bug in the OS, as evidenced by the fact we get it even after a clean install of the OS on a brand new drive partition.
    Here's the Apple Bug Reporter:
    https://bugreport.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/RadarWeb.woa
    And before anyway suggests it to me too, yes, I've telephone AppleCare. I've phoned them 3 times so far concerning my Sleep problem, and during the third phone conversation they upgraded me to a Senior Advisor and I reported the ASP crash too. They had no idea what to say about that, even when I mentioned my bug report to Apple Engineering.

  • System Profiler Crash

    Hi All!
    Trying to check my applications for compatibility in preparation for a Lion upgrade, I attempted to use System Profiler to list all my applications by kind -- i.e., intel native, PowerPC, etc.
    But, when I click on "Applications" under "Software" in System Profiler, it crashes. Reliably crashes, even after a reboot.
    Anyone else experience this or have thoughts about what might be the cause? I've never had System Profiler crash before.
    Thanks,
    Greg

  • Roland UM-ONE  CD-ROM does not mount on iMac OS 10.8.2 Roland driver for 10.8 installed as directed. No power ready light shows when connecting UM-ONE. System Profiler shows it, but not configured. Older UM-1X works fine. UM-ONE works on Dell Windows XP.

    UM-ONE
    Roland supplied CD-ROM does not mount or read by iMac OS 10.8.2, works with old TiBook and Dell laptop, however.
    Got latest driver from RolandUS.com (um_1mx8d_v100), installed as directed.
    No power ready light shows when connecting UM-ONE.
    System Profile shows it there, but not configured.
    With Audio MIDI Setup opened to MIDI Studio window, UM-ONE does not appear.
    Tried many things without success. Tried swapping UM-1X (formerly on Dell laptop) with UM-ONE. UM-ONE installed and worked there without any issues. MIDI instrument communicates fine.
    The UM-1X works without complaint and as expected when connected to any USB port on either the Dell or iMac, even a hub or keyboard port, just as it formerly had before changing operating systems, etc. It is old, but reliable.
    Upshot is, for now, that UM-1X works with either the Dell or the iMac, but is currently attached to the iMac. UM-ONE (2011 model) only works with the Dell (Windows XP).

    Same problem here! The only difference is that I'm using a MacBook pro 13 inch (2011)

  • Lacie USB not mounting

    I have both a 500gb and a 250gb Lacie USB external drives. Recently the 250gb wont mount on my desktop. i've tried unplugging and re plugging, switched the cables between the two but nothing works. it did eventually mount yesterday but again today it refuses to mount. the 500gb harddrive is fine.
    the 250 also appears in my system profiler and in my disk utilities. i've repaird disk and permissions, but nothing will make it appear on my desktop.
    any help would be greatly appreciated as the drive contains all my music and photos that i dont want to loose.

    This is to assure you your photos are fine (I think). My LaCie drive is a DVD, but it has the same problem. LaCie (or someone) claimed it first occurred after MacOSX 10.4.8 was updated, and appears a problem between LaCie's software & Mac's. Various kludges have been suggested, and they all work at times: plugging the cables in carefully (Mac's astute advice), plugging in a different USB (or Firewire) device first (to 'stabilize' the bus), switching between USB & Firewire, & I've found a cold reboot with the drive plugged in occasionally works. I've found that even when an icon doesn't appear on my desktop, some Cocoa applications can access the drive. So if you're really worried about your photos, or frustrated, I might suggest seeing whether Darwin has mounted your drive: just type 'mount' on the 'Terminal' and look for it. If so, why not try a free X11 application until LaCie (or Apple) fixes the problem?

  • External Hard Drive won't load, Disk Utility and System Profiler crashes,

    I've had the WD 1TB Passport for Mac for about a year now and as of this afternoon, my MacBook Pro stopped recognizing it. It's encrypted so when I plugged it in, my computer asked me for my password, but then it said there was an error and wouldn't mount. After restarting the computer, the password prompt for my external drive didn't even pop up. I can hear the hard drive spinning and the light flashes for a good 30 seconds before going solid. I have tested my USB ports with flash drives and they are reading them just fine. I tried to run  Disk Utility but it goes into the never-ending loading mode. So then I go to the "About my Mac" page and clicked on storage, and the profiler crashed (never-ending loading). Can anyone help me? It was working just fine up until today. I even tried different Micro USB chords on it. This drive is incredibly important to me and I would appreciate not having to erase anything from it (kinda defeats the purpose of backing up a computer if the external hard drive is the one needing the backup).

  • Lacie drive not mounting after updating to 10.4.8

    Hi,
    I have a 160gb Lacie d2 external hd, and after updating my OS to 10.4.8 in October, it will not mount. It's recognized in Disk Utility, but will not mount. I've tried repairing disk permissions from both my current OS and from the installer DVD, but it isn't helping and I keep getting the same message.
    When I first updated to 10.4.8 in October, my computer had problems re-starting (it would get stuck at the blue boot-up screen), so I had to turn it off by holding the power button. Ever since then, the lacie drive won't mount.
    Is there anything else I can do? I've thought about trying Disk Warrior, but if possible I'd like to save the $100 to buy it!
    Any advice? I would really appreciate it.

    What I think.
    The major changes occurred in the 10.4 original Tiger release. Due to the nature of what I believe the problem is 10.4.7 would just be changing how, where and when the issue(s) become most noticeable to you and not solve it. It will leave you hangin' somewhere else. This I/O API does effect everything. I only wanted to finish a movie with iMovie and set some clips at 00:05 f as I have done forever. Bought a new MacBook Pro specifically for OS X.4 and iMovie and all that was over. iMovie as well as many other Universal apps are IMO mostly non functional except at the OS and QT interface. All other Universal apps and devices cause it to choke and sputter as things pass through this very same I/O API that is causing the external HD issues. As for the PB G4, I was believing the age of the machine to be causing these failures then I had noticed many others developing the same issues on newer G4 machines. Most puzzling was the performance hit on the machines with the proper HW especially larger Core Image supported graphics cards as 10.4 has made this a very relevant piece of HW now. The more I read about the how's and why's of the changes in the architecture of the OS in the Developer Connection the more I realized that many issues that seem so unrelated are indeed caused by the same area and or error in this API. iTunes, Safari, iMovie, iPhoto, -.. CPU's, Fans, HD's, jpegs choking G5's and intels-.. plug n play's that worked yesterday not today, same machines/HW new OS.
    Photoshop CS and, an extremely resource greedy, 3D Modeling/database application running in Rosetta works fine. Animating 3D graphics on the fly without so much as a stutter everything calm and quiet. Open Safari and the comp gets too hot to handle the fans are screaming just displaying basic window graphics here at the Apple Discussion boards. Most times this is a text only forum for me as the MPB can't even process the window graphics, often the original posts push-pin graphic is the only one that will display.
    AFAICT Rosetta is just an application with no graphic user interface and it is not Universal Binary therefore avoiding this I/O kit as it was designed for the specific configuration of the MacIntel only and works fine. Apple's iLife and iWork apps especially, as well as any SW using this I/O Kit API for Universal Binary apps don't work properly. Anyone with a later G4 and especially a G5 with a good, Core Image supported, graphics card should be feeling like they have a new machine, not saying "hey my stuff isn't working anymore" or slow imports of files or processing.
    Personally I would:
    Start up from 10.3 install discs, back up my docs to external HD and re-partition the internal HD. At least two, IMO three partitions (do not journal OS partitions) would be the least. Install 10.3.9 on one 10.4+ on the (an)other. Docs on the third. Keep the OS partitions as small as possible while allowing for OS's extra "operating space". 3.9 only requires about 2-5 GB's above required space to install while OS 10.4 seems to need 5-10 GB that is always "free" depending on what you are doing and also allowing for any OS and app. updates that may come before the next OS X release. 3.9 is already maxed so one can assume no new news here.
    My G4's HD set up is 6 partitions as it is now mainly a slave hub between my MBP and my "legacy" products PB G3, serial devices, Zip drives, modems, SCSI devices, scanners, printers old apps/file formats. Apps and HW that are still useful but "max out" at a certain OS/comp configuration are installed on that OS's partition, i.e. QT w/MPEG-2, Virtual PC, or Photoshop plugins that were never developed or not worth the investment for OS X or the current release as they are not used often enough etc.
    5GB-9.2.2, 10GB-10.2, 15GB- 10.3.9, 20GB-10.4.6, 15 GB Apps. 35GB docs. Nothing gets written to any OS partitions unless absolutely required. All OS's share the apps they can (except 9 apps) and document partition. As far as I understand I should be able to use XGrid to use these other computers processors through the MBP. A "super computer" kind of set up with the G4 at the least, but documentation indicates it should work on any OS X so possibly my G3 as well which stopped at 10.1.
    You do not have to duplicate apps and I would install and update all through 3.9 even if you install them in the 10.4 Apps. folder. At most you may need to create a couple of folders in the OS's System Library for Application Support or plug-ins etc. If you fear one OS reading from the other's Library/System files you can unmount the other OS volumes but I have yet to see this happen without intentionally directing the OS to do so.
    I would do all my external back ups and device communication (cameras, HD's MIDI's etc) booting in 10.3 only. For me the G4 booted in Target disk mode seems to be the safest way to access an "external HD" via FW with the MBP. I have had zero problems with this method. A two step process for files that don't reside on the G4 but I'd rather be safe than sorry and I have already lost one HD that was completely unrecoverable (a mechanical rebuild lead to the discovery of overwritten files with driver type data and damaged disk surface from arcing). Small files I just access on the external HD's through G4 over the airport network. I have not used Bonjour in depth yet though will most likely incorporate that into everyday use as I was able to quickly transfer a few very large files to a friends MacBook with it. Used this Just after realizing the MBP lacks IRDA and neither of us had any cables with us.
    The above type of configuration would give you the ability to move forward with 10.4 and easily work around HW, SW and connectivity issues by booting into 10.3 when needed. This is a great way of trouble shooting OS and app issues. My MBP already has a partition waiting for Leopard. If the OS lacks something or has problems of it's own I can boot back into 10.4 quickly and easily. If all is well with Leopard 10.4 will definitely be removed. The G4 will never see Leopard except over a network.
    Sorry to be long winded. Hope this gives you some reasonable ideas. In a nutshell. I believe the problem is that the OS and QT are set to higher, more accurate standards (ISO's MPEG's, SMTP's, IEEE's etc) than in the past and the I/O API is unable to communicate/calculate and transfer the information properly between devices and apps.
    BTW when your LaCie appears to have given up the ghost and will not respond at all, before you toss the whole thing remove the HD and put it in a different enclosure. I have dealt with hundreds of these and the Firewire ports on the PC board become too hot and melt off. Repair is not possible and although this is a known issue with LaCie no attempts have been made to correct this and they will not sell you a service part to repair it. Replacement would require removal and replacement of two screws and two plugs. Most HD's I have removed are Western HD's and work fine in a new enclosure.

  • System profiler crashes

    hi, every time i go to open up the system profiler it crashes. the computer does not crash but that one thing does. it opens then it closes right away after it pops up. the message after it close says " The application System Profiler quit unexpectedly" " Mac OS X and other applications are not affected." "Click Reopen to open the application again. Click Report to see more details or send a report to Apple." the computer is not hooked up to the internet yet.
    help me please!!!!

    If you are running 10.4, you can launch Disk Utility, select your Hard drive and choose ( Verify ) while the System is running. \[If that finds problems, you will need to boot from your Install CD to ( Repair).] Then run ( Repair Permissions ) (which can be run while the System is running). If that does not fix the problem, System Profiler may be damaged, and you may have to use Pacifist to extract and re-install it.
    It DOES work on older hardware (whose installation of 10.4 was facilitated by XPostFacto), some parts are just not as detailed. For example, on a beige G3, it will tell me correctly there is 384 MB of RAM, but it can't tell me anything about slots, sizes, or speeds. It tells me there is 8 MB of VRAM, which is not quite right (there is a 4 MB SODIMM added) but at least it knows there is more than the default of 2. I have never had it crash.

  • System profiler info. in SL not the same as Tiger

    I am using Tiger on an iBook G4, and SL on a 2010 Macbook.  I noticed that when using System Profiler, there are many Startup Items listed (none added by me) in Tiger, and "No information found" in SL.  I also noticed different detail for Firewall --  Tiger lists a lot of denied items and SL just says "No" for Firewall and Stealth Mode.  Are these just legitament differences between the OS versions or is my SL computer messed up?  Also, does "No" for Stealth mean it is on or off.  I have it turned it "On" in system preferences.  Any help is appreciated.

  • Internal Lacie drive not mounting

    Hello,
    I am having trouble with my lacie drive. I mounted it internally because the firewire port went bad. The lacie was working fine for about 1 month and now it won't mount. It shows up greyed out in the disk utility and when I try to repair permissions I get this message:
    Verify and Repair disk “LACIE”

    ***Would anyone be able to figure out my next move? I have a lot of data on this hard drive and it is currently Inaccessible.
    Thank you!

    It looks like the FAT file system is corrupted and beyond the ability of Disk Utility to repair it.
    I think you should try another disk repair utility. A discussion at macosxhints.com says Disk Utility can't repair FAT file systems and suggests DiskWarrior:
    http://forums.macosxhints.com/showthread.php?t=58708
    I use Techtool Pro (the "pro" version of Techtool Deluxe that's bundled with AppleCare) but I'm not sure if it can repair FAT file systems, either.
    I strongly recommend that you back up the data on the disk and reformat it as HFS+.

  • Major system failure--crashed and could not reboot

    At about 1 am (it's 3 something now) this morning I told my computer to print a simple, one page document. I received an error message, and after a few more tries my MacBook Pro froze, and the CommandOptionEscape combination was having no effect. So, I did what I did not want to do, I held down the power button and forced my computer to shut down. After waiting a few seconds and pushing the button the start-up chime sounded, and the Apple logo appeared on the screen. Everything was fine so far. Before getting to the small circle thing that normally appears below the Apple logo, the screen changed to a black screen with white font, which looked somewhat like DOS. This message was displayed:
    /etc/master.passwd: No such file or directory
    -Sh-2.05b# CSRHID TransitionDriver::stop
    IOBluetoothHCIController::start IdleTimerStopped
    I believe that I have all of the spacing correct, but I am not positive. Also, I can no longer tell wether the "-Sh-2.05b" was really "-5h-2.05b".
    I tried to enter the few commands that I knew in this form, such as "macboot", but as I suspected it was futile. I attempted to reset the PRAM by forcing it to shut down, and restarting and holding down CommandOption+PR, but that did not make any noticeable changes. I tried again by forcing it off and holding down Option while restarting, and I got the black screen with white font again.
    I was able to reinstall Mac OS X version 10.4.5 from the installation DVDs that came with my MacBook Pro. (I am currently running 10.4.5, but I had 10.4.6 in the previous system.) I was able to "archive" the previous OS which I booted from by selecting that option. I can luckily access these files (and have placed the most important safely on my flash drive).
    I have not tried to restart or shut down since. Please respond as soon as you can. For now I can live off of this, and by setting up the Mail app and the bare necessities. I have Internet access to by AirPort.
    By the way, I have never used Bluetooth devices with this (or any) computer, I have never tried to use Boot Camp to partition my hard drive to run Windows. I did not open my System Folder and tamper with it. I do not know what caused this system failure.
    Thank you.
    EDIT: I now have all of my email. And I discovered that my apps are in the new Applications folder. Some just need to be reconfigured.
    Message was edited by: macbookdemon

    Thanks. It makes sense, since everything froze and when I forced the computer to shut down unsaved files, and some saved ones could be corrupted. I'm glad that Apple had the insight to have the option of reinstalling the OS and archiving all the old system files on the HD. All I had to do was drop the folders, ie. Desktop, Pictures, Movies, Documents, etc, onto my new desktop and drop the files into the corresponding places in my home folder. I did have to reset the minor things, such as configure iChat, Mail and a few others (the most annoying would be that I lost all of my saved passwords, and it took several tries to remember some of them because with Firefox and Safari I save them all). There really is no longer any evidence that I ever had this problem anymore.
    And I'm back in control!

  • Lacie D2 NOT Mounting

    so i've had this external hardrive for a while now, and it mounted on my G4 imac, my recently returned Intel iMac, but it won't mount on my new G5 iMac. I have another x-drive, by allcomdata that mounts via firewire as well. When I use disk utility to confirm, it shows up, but without the mounting option. I also use disk warrior to repair any problems on it. Can someone advise on this? I need to access a few files saved on the x-drive. Much appreciated in advance.

    ok, so i tried resetting that SMU, and unplugged everything, waited a few then re-plugged everything and powered up. I even changed ports on the iMac to see if it was a faulty port. It still doesn't show up on the desktop, but it shows in Disk Utility. I tried all the support on Lacie's site but still, unsuccessful. Anyway, in Disk Utility, it doesn't allow me to mount or repair permissions on it. It only gives me the options to eject, verify and repair disk. Additionally, verifuing and repairing shows no problems. What gives?!
