Time Machine causing kernel panic - bad ca_blocks (too small)

When time machine is finishing a backup, the grey curtain comes down and I must shut down computer. I have tried to repair sparsebundle but I do not receive any details to see if the bundle is corrupt. I have pasted below the kernel panic details. Any suggestions to correct time machine so I can use again for backups?

Sometimes when you repair a sparse bundle, the messages aren't shown in the center panel. Click the Logs icon in the toolbar, or select +Window > Show Log+ in the menubar.
The messages for each "run" are separated by a row of asterisks, so you can look back, too.
I have pasted below the kernel panic details. Any suggestions to correct time machine so I can use again for backups?

Bad blocks sounds like a problem with the HD. If the repair finds and fixes things, try again.
If that doesn't help, make an appointment at your local Apple Store: http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/
or call AppleCare and report your situation.
Note that Time Capsules are warranted for one year, but if you purchased AppleCare for a Mac within 2 years of the TC, the TC is covered, too.

    The panic was apparently caused by "LittleSnitch," maybe with help from one or more of the other third-party system modifications you've installed. I suggest you remove it and also "Avast."
    Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
    Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
    I never install system modifications myself, and (unless otherwise specified in this comment) I don't know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find that information.
    Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickMyMac” (a hypothetical example.) First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickmymac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickMyMac.” If not, open “BrickMyMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button. The uninstaller might also be accessed by clicking the Customize button, if there is one.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    You will generally have to restart the computer in order to complete an uninstallation. Until you do that, there may be no effect, or unpredictable effects.
    If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    WARNING: Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software.
    "Avast" is perhaps the worst of the whole wretched lot of commercial "security" products for the Mac. Not only does it fail to protect you from any real danger, it throws false warnings, destabilizes and slows down your computer, and sometimes or always corrupts the network settings and the permissions of files in your home folder. Removing it may not repair all the damage, and neither will Disk Utility or even reinstalling OS X.
    Back up all data, then remove "Avast" according to the developer's instructions. Restart.
    If you tried to remove Avast by dragging an application to the Trash, you'll have to reinstall it and then follow the instructions linked above.

  • Time Machine causing Kernel Panics

    Hello,
    A few days ago, I started to have kernel panics with Time Machine.  This seems to have started since I upgraded to OS X 10.10.2.
    I can reliably reproduce the issue by doing the following:
    Turn Time Machine "ON" in the system control panel and then force a backup.
    Time Machine starts, says that it is preparing the backup, at some point the screen freezes and I get the grey screen of multilingual kernel panics.
    I removed all kext extensions from the system, rebooted: no effect.  I also re-install MacOS X (through the recovery volume) same thing.  This also occurs in Safe Mode.
    Any help would be appreciated
    Thanks
    Stefan
    Here what I get from the console messages at the time just before the kernel panic occurs:

  • Time machine cause kernel panic

    I've updated to 10.6.4 yesterday, today when time machine running the kernel panic appear. what should i do... i'm very new to mac, i'm just upgraded from pc 3 days ago.

    Hi, and welcome to the forums, and Macs.
    Sorry for the unusual introduction to a kernel panic.
    Turn Time Machine OFF via +System Preferences > Time Machine.+
    Assuming Time Machine had been working before the update, something may have gone wrong with it. Try downloading and installing the 10.6.4 "combo" update. That's the cleverly-named combination of all the updates to Snow Leopard since it was first released, so installing it should fix anything that's gone wrong since then, such as with one of the normal "point" updates. Info and download available at: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1048 Be sure to do a +Repair Permissions+ via Disk Utility (in your Applications/Utilities folder) afterwards.

  • Help! Time machine says my backup disk is too small

    I have a 500 gig back up disk for time machine back up and my hard drive on my imac is 500gigs but for some reason it is saying I don't have enough space on my back up disk for time machine to back up. how can that be if they are the same size.

    How big is your Leopard filesystem?

  • RAID mirror with software utility caused kernel panic every time

    Using disc utility to make a mirror of 2 drives, click create and i get kernel panic and have to power off machine. if i try to start the machine with either of the two disks in it (together or individually) i get same kernel panic and have to power off.
    The disks are in an external storage array (sonnet d500). I have a second storage array with raided disks in and i have raided disk inside the mac too. these all work fine..
    originally 2 weeks ago i had the 2 disks working in a group of 4 disks set as a mirror of 2 striped disks. One disk in this setup failed and with this config you can never 'recover'or rebuild it - you get a degraded mirror and you can backup the data, but you must completely rebuild the raid again as the mirror of stripes never lets you add a new disk in again.period. not good.
    I replaced the failed disk and rebuilt the mirror of stripes. this lasted a day until a second disk failed (all 4 were bought at same time so i was kind of expecting that to happen once one failed).
    i replaced the second faulty hdd and thought about my disk usage and decided i would not make another mirror of stripes and i would make 2 mirrors instead for safe-ish storage and then transfer data to a striped raid set for editing from instead of direct from the mirror of stripes volume.
    i tried to delete the raid but got a kernel panic
    if i started the machine with any of the 4 disks i would get a kernel panic.
    i moved the disks one by one into an older G5 running Tiger and managed to erase the raid info on 2 of them. The two new ones had some strange raid info and the Tiger machien thought there was an extra disk in the machine and would not erase or partition or allow me to destroy the raid whatever i tried.
    I will be moving these now into an old XP PC to try to erase the boot records etc and erase them to be able to use them again in either mac pro or G5. painful..
    so.. i ended up with 2 erased drives and have 2 new drives with dodgy raid info that causes kernel panics on the leopard machine and wont go in the Tiger machine.
    The two erased drives are what ive now been trying to use in the mac pro to create a mirror - this now caused kernel panics when creating the mirror to start with and when installed in the machine at all. so i will be erasing them again in the tiger machine soon (its busy erasing with zeros another new disk that i added to the Tiger machine 2 weeks ago which seems to have some fault when raided!!! but thats another story).
    so.. is anyone else having problems with creating basic mirror in 10.5.4 or is it just me??
    i have a sonnet tempo e4p card with 2 external sata disk enclosures, latest firmware for the e4p card. all other previously existing raid volumes are working fine. i have one set of 2 striped disks, one set of 3 striped disks and one set of 2 stripes which are mirrored - all happy and working fine. but i cant make a new mirror of 2 disks...
    I phoned Apple support and they said all raid info was kept on the disk itself and nothing on the actual machine and suggested i take the machine to an apple care centre for some tlc (although its disk i am having a problem with). since all my other disk arrays work fine i don't really want to rebuild the whole machine from scratch if i can avoid it.
    Any suggestions of what i can try ??

    well it turns out the new disk i bought just werent any good. my g5 powermac raid mirror issue was related to one new disk with lots of bad blocks (speed tools showed that up) so i have learnt my lesson on cheap non raid disks for raid..
    am waiting on a couple of new ultrastar enterprise disks to tuen up so i can go back to the macpro and try to add a mirror again.
    i am still stuck wih several new disks that i cannot format now in the macpro on leopard or on the g5 powermac with tiger.
    ive tried softraid and that cant do it, speedtools pcformat util cant do it, disk utility crashes when i try to eras them and diskutil from termianl starts then doenst get anywhere and my pc sata card doesnt work so my last resort pc option still doesnt help me clear the partition map on these drives - ones that diskutility on leopard made for me - and drives which still cause kernel panics on the macpro if i put them in it..
    here is what diskutil says on my g5:
    /dev/disk0
    #: type name size identifier
    0: GUIDpartitionscheme *465.8 GB disk0
    1: EFI 200.0 MB disk0s1

    1: Applepartitionmap 31.5 KB disk4s1
    2: Apple_HFS tempi 931.4 GB disk4s3
    disk0 is the one with the bad partition info.
    it thinks it has a double raid as the console shows on startup:
    (both store45 and cache it thinks are on this disk - cache was my old mirror of stripes set on other machine, store45 was new name for my mirror, so seems like it hadnt deleted the original raid partition info before making new info which now kernel panics)
    Jul 18 18:48:05 localhost kernel[0]: AppleRAID::degradeSet - starting the set "STORE45" (B9C48619-6B2C-4547-A01E-4864754EA7E2).

    so currently i have 2 new 500gb disks which cant be partitioned back to anything at all on either machine. looks like i will have to buy a new pc to reformat them..
    any suggestions of how to clear the partition map info and get them back to freespace ??

  • Airport causing kernel panics and kp in safe boot.

    Last week I got my first kernel panic in years. It happened while I was asleep and checking an extrenal drive for bad blocks with TechTool. It turns out that the drive indeed had bad blocks and found that the cpu was shut down when I awoke. I started up the computer and it wasn't able to stay on for more than 10 min max before the next kernel panic. I checked here for more advice on kernel panics and started to try to narrow the number of culprits. Everything was unplugged and still kp. Instaled a new drive with a week older system from Time Machine and still kp. Reset NVRAM and replaced pyhsical RAM and still kp. Removed the Airport Extreme card and still kp. Booted into Safe Mode after all of the previously mentioned and still kp. I'm now going to take the drive and swap it into another body that I have to see if the root is actually on the drive on the physical hardware of the cpu.
    I was interested in this thread and read all of the links that jpl posted. Airport causing Kernel Panic (?) Jason then replied that it had been solved due to a "permissions problem" I wish he gave more info on what exactly he did to resolve the problem as it's been almost a week now without any work being done for me.
    I've also noticed this very strange behavior that might shed some light onto the issue. When I open System Prefs and close the window there is a strange colored pattern that will always flash after the window has been closed. I tried to post it to my me page but for somereason it wouldn't play for me so there's that and the YouTube version too.
    https://www.me.com/gallery/#100008/Prefs%20Screen
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zrTt88YdBo
    In addition when the computer has started up and the system loads. Checking Activity Monitor shows that there are 50 or more threads active for the the kernel_task. Inspecting this doesn't seem to show any useful information.
    Finally here are a few of the recent crashes I hope that someone might be able to shed some light on this extremely frustrating problem for me.

    My vision is pretty poor, still cant see it, but...
    At this point I think you should get Applejack...
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
    After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
    At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
    The 6 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
    Trash old Log files.
    First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
    Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.

  • External LaCie Multi Recorder causing kernel panics since reloading OS

    I just replaced my main internal hd with a new 1TB WD Caviar Black. I migrated all of my user information from my old drive via Time Machine & all seemed well. Since I did a fresh, zero out data install of the OS on the new drive, I need to reinstall my programs. Some of my older programs are kept on DVD-RAM disks that I've had since my old G4. To access these files I use my LaCie Multi recorder which was working fine prior to the HD switch.
    When I put my DVD-RAM disk into the drive it's now causing kernel panics.
    Anyone know what could have caused this or how I might correct the problem?
    Thanks.

    Okay, it seems that I've got a bad disk. I connected the drive to my laptop & used another dvd & all worked as it should. Put my program back-up disk in & it caused a panic.
    New question, is there any way to repair the disk?
    I've got DiskWarrior & TechTool Deluxe but I'm not sure how I might go about the repair as the panic occurs while the drive is trying to access the disk.

  • Using 2 memory modules causes kernel panic

    In early 2009 I upgraded my memory from 512 to 2 GB, 2 modules of 1GB each. This past January (just shy of 2 years later) I got a kernel panic. I tested running with a single module, and one module caused panic, the other was fine. Both slots function with the good module. So I got two new matched replacement chips from OWC, put them in and got kernel panics during the boot process. Yesterday I spent testing memory configurations and found this:
    1. chip 1 alone runs fine and passes all Rember memory tests in slot 1.
    2. chip 2 alone runs fine in slot 1 and 2, passes all memory tests in slot 2.
    3. chips 1 and 2 together, in either slot, cause kernel panics before the OS is loaded.
    Has anyone seen this problem? Will it go away if I use top of the line (Apple) memory chips?
    When the kernel panics started back in January, an AppleCare advanced advisor said he had the same problem and he had to remove one module to stop the kernel panics. Running on 1GB doesn't work for me because I tend to max out the memory and programs like Mail, Safari, Photoshop, etc. become unreponsive all together.
    thanks -

    I have spent more time on the phone with OWC about this than I care to remember. Their latest request is that I use an eraser to clean the metal contacts on the chips; if that fails, I get to send the chips back. Whether I get a refund or yet another set of replacement chips, I don't know. They are not experts on Apple machines, that is clear.

  • Readynas duo mounted over ethernet causes kernel panics

    I've found out what is causing kernel panics on my machines, but i'm not sure how to resolve it. I have a g4 laptop and a new mac mini, both mount the readynas via mount_afp using a LoginHook. When the laptop or the mini go to sleep, the ethernet connection is powered off and at some point the readynas goes to sleep as well. So, when the laptop/mini wake from sleep, they have trouble re-establishing the mount to the readynas (as it needs time to spin it's drives up) and then the laptop/mini kernel panic...shouldn't this really be just a lost connection message, rather than a full fledged panic!

    This is where we have a difference of opinion...If i can mount an external box over ethernet/firewire/usb and it causes the machine to kernel panic, then the software is not robust enough to handle the exception cases. Running 10.4.x for years with the same external hardware never yielded such results.

  • PS Extended CS6 causing kernel panics

    I've been getting one or two a week. Haven't figured out yet what triggers it, but it only happens in CS6. I did recently reinstall the entire OS, so that's clean. Here's the latest panic info the reboot generates to send to Apple. Doesn't mean anything to me, other than the panic notation near the top of the info tells you what it thinks happened.

    Only OS bugs, driver bugs, or hardware problems can cause kernel panics.
    Yes, that is normally the case. I brought this up here because while working in PS is the only time this happens. I know it doesn't make sense, but there it is.
    Not sure why the crash report stated 10.8.0. It's incorrect on two counts. For one, I'm working in Snow Leopard, 10.6.8. I do have Mountain Lion installed on a separate drive for testing, but that already is at 10.8.2. Regardless, it's not the OS I was even in, so I don't know why it reported 10.8.0 as the kernel.
    Anyway, I noticed (after posting this of course) that there was a 13.0.1 update for PS CS6. I applied that and we'll see how it goes from there as the update is noted as fixing a number of crashing problems.

  • Scanner Causing Kernel Panics

    I have an old Agfa SnapScan 1212u USB scanner and up until today it has worked fine. Then suddenly it started causing Kernal Panics. It happens about 30% of the time. It scans the first 10% then throws up the Kernel Panic message and I'm forced to restart. I have run the Disk Repair Utility, repaired permissions, reinstalled the Agfa Scanwise driver, deleted all scanner related preferences and disconnected all other USB devices but nothing seems to work. The only software update I've done recently is the August and Java Security updates. Could either of these things be the problem? This is the first time I've had Kernel Panics on my Mac Mini. I doubt it's caused by the ram. It has worked flawlessly since I put in the 1GB module in July.
    Does anyone have any ideas?
    Cheers
    djon

    Well, I downloaded Vuescan and set it up but now I have another problem. Vuescan constantly crashes. Sometimes it crashes when I'm changing settings and sometimes is crashes after a scan. I set the memory settings very high so it shouldn't be a memory issue. I've tried just about everything to get this scanner working with Vuescan. I even installed a fresh copy of Panther on my Firewire drive but it only reduced the crashes not eliminate them. I'd like to get Vuescan working because it seems to make better scans than Scanwise did. At least it doesn't cause Kernel Panics. Does anyone have any idea what's going on? I'm beginning to think that it might be a hardware problem with the scanner.

  • Time machine causes error message " Disk not properly ejected" with USB backup drive

    I am using iMac OS X Lion and Time Machine causes the error message with a WD 1.5 TB drive in aThermaltake dock, USB.  every time I wake up the computer....  Ejection of Time Machine and shut it down and turn opp power to drive causes the error message problem to disappear.   What is the solutin?

    If it were mine I would replace the drive with another brand. WD drives EHD's tend to have more issues than any other EHD. If you want to continue using it you can try resetting the SMC (may take 2-3 tries) and/or restarting in Safe Mode to reset some caches, it's possible one or more has become corrupt.
    SMC RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
    Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
    Release the power button.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    PRAM RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
