Unknown kernel option and a freeze, help please!

Hi,
Reopening this thread - I had to re-start at boot three times today. The kernel freezes up on boot, right before I'm supposed to load the console fonts. On boot, my fonts change, so that could be the point where the thing freezes...
Uname -r gives "2.6.36-ARCH", possibly this started after the last update, I dunnow...
What's the next step I take? Except a panic, please, no more panic!!! Please help, thanks.
Thor
Edit : this is what it said :
unknown boot option+0x0/0x19f
Any clues?
Edit - once up and running, the thing keeps going. Udev is 165-1 according to pacman.log...
Edit - This was reported (today?) as a bug ( https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/22343 ) so, all I can say is "go-developers-go!!" and I'll just w8 the ride, I guess...

Hi,
I too just recently had a Kernel Panic. I think mine was related to video. Yours looks like there are hints to storage problems? Look at these:
dependency: com.apple.iokit.IODVDStorageFamily(1.4)@0x6e4000
dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOSCSIArchitectureModelFamily(1.4.4)@0x52a000
dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOStorageFamily(1.5)@0x4e3000
dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOSCSIBlockCommandsDevice(1.4.4)@0x6eb000
dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOCDStorageFamily(1.4)@0x6da000
com.apple.iokit.IOSCSIArchitectureModelFamily(1.4.4)@0x52a000
Do you have SCSI drives? I don't even really know how to read these as I am really guessing based on reading previous posts and seeing other logs including mine. I never had a kernel panic until I installed 10.4.4 So I suspect there is maybe a bug in 10.4.4, maybe in the video driver or my Graphics card is croaking.
How long have you been having Kernel Panics? Since what version of the OS?
Here is a link I have seen posted on here several times.

Hi chiekoo,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at this article:
iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694#error21
Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

HT1477 When i disconnect my iPod 2nd Gen from my laptop, its display turns off and working freezes. Please help me.

When i disconnect my iPod 2nd Gen from my laptop, its display goes off and working freezes. Please help me.

The computer freezes? There may be something wrong with the USB port. If the laptop has more than one port, does this happen on any port? If you are disconnecting the shuffle cable from the computer, does it make any difference if you disconnect the shuffle at the other end of the cable first, then disconnect the cable from computer? Or if you currently disconnect the shuffle from cable first, try it the other way.
You may be able to work around this problem, if you get a self-powered USB hub. Something like this one
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/USB2HB7PRO/
There are many choices, but be sure to get one that has its own power supply. You can leave the shuffle cable connected to the hub, and connect the shuffle to the hub, instead of directly to the computer. This may provide a "buffer" for whatever is causing your laptop to shut off when the shuffle is disconnected. Since the hub has its own power supply, it will not rely on the computer for power to re-charge the battery.

All of my playlists made on my Ipod touch 3rd gen keep disappearing when I sync it to itunes. Drivng me crazy. All software up to date on both itunes and Ipod. Help please.

I tend to make my playlists right on my ipod. This did not happen for the last 2 years. Just started recently. Did get a new computer recently.

That is because you got a new computer. You can only sync all media from one syncing computer. You can sync from any computer to iPod using the manual method but that does not sync from iPod to computer.

My IPhone 5, was backed up and restored. Music doesn't sync, when reconnecting device each time, it only offers restore or new phone rather than sync option. I have reinstalled ITunes but still this hasn't worked. Can anyone help please?

This problem started last year when ios 8 was released. I think apple is trying to force users to buy music on iTunes store and that's why it's impossible to sync other music and also that's the reason why they haven't solved this serious problem. That's really disappoints me and i'm angry with apple because i have like 10 gb of music in mp3 and i can't sync music from iTunes to my iPhone.

Hi I can't see audiobooks on my library options? can anyone help please?

Hi I copied my library to a hard disc and pointed iTunes to it via preferences and the audio books option doesn't now seem to exist in library. The audio books are still there, i can see the file if i go in though finder.
Can anyone help please?

Hello Paul and Claire,
You want to drag that folder on top of iTunes to import it in. It will go through the import process again and should sort that out for you. I know the article below is for iTunes 11 but it is the same for the latest version of iTunes.

Mac suddenly started being slow, crashing, and glitchy? Help please

Ok,
So I have an eary 2011 model Macbook Pro 13' with 4gb hardrive with a 2.3ghz i5
My mac used to work great, literally no problems, i only do simple stuff like microsoft word, youtube, browse the web, itunes and spotify etc.
Basically the other day i was ordering concert tickets from ticketmaster.com and suddenly my computer like just froze and nothing worked at all so i just held the power button down and let it reboot, then it got so glitchy
it was crashing, nothing was loading, every action i made required the rainbow spinning wheel thing. oh and for some reason the sound option no longer appeard it was like a faded gray, and no sound came from the computer. so i went to the app store and updated my software ( i was on mountain lion but i dont know which version)
since ive updated im on 10.8.4 and that fixed the sound problem, but my computer is still messed up or something
when i boot it up and have to enter in my password it just starts lagging and freezing, everything i do i get the rainbow spinning wheel, spotify fades in and out and constantly freezes as does itunes and safari crashes alot especially when im just trying to play a video. not to mention netflix doesnt play anymore (it keeps saying the plugin failed or something).
i thought it might be a virus but i scanned (with iAntivirus from the mac app store) and it said it was clean. Also my computer takes forever to connect to wifi, before this happened i could open up my computer and it would immediatly connect but now it takes like 3 minutes ( i know that sounds like a petty problem but its an issue when im a student and have to open up my computer and immediatly start working)
ive also checked my activity moniter but nothing shows up as draining the CPU. my ram says its realitivly free
i havent downloaded anything new, i havent dropped my computer or anything either
and just to be clear, my computer had no problems prior to this ticketmaster thing.
thank you in advanced for anyone that can help,
i start school very soon and i really need my computer to work, i rely on it heavily

Encore CS4 loads 10% and STOPS! help please

I'm a high school student working on a dvd for my school's battle of the bands (it's over 2 hours long counting the concert itself and interviews with the bands), i'm quite adept with Adobe software and have been using it for some time. The project file is massive and i've been able to get all of my footage into Adobe Encore CS4 and make the menu. Now when I try to open the project, it loads 10% and stops, freezes, and will not respond. The computers here are Dell's running Windows XP and i have a feeling they're from about 2005-2007. Could this be due to the computer I'm working on? Or possibly a problem with Encore? I also have a feeling that I might need administrative authority on the computer to be able to work on a file in Encore that's as massive as this.
Please help me in any way you can, I've been working on this project for months and would like to finally finish it.

Welcome to the forum.
Both PrPro and Encore really, really want to be run under an Administrator account. That would be my first guess, but something puzzles me - you had been working in Encore with this Project in the past. Did your IT department change your account?
As a test, can you launch Encore and choose New Project? If so, set that up with a few Imported test Assets. Add a Menu from the Library and Link the Assets - Preview. Does everything work OK?
Next, where are your Assets stored, the ones for your Battle of the Bands Project? Are they on a networked drive, a USB external, etc.? Those can be an issue.
Last, tell us a bit about your Assets (especially your AV files), and also how you Imported them, i.e. as Timelines, or as Assets, to be dragged to Timelines. Are your AV files muxed, i.e. containing both the Audio and the Video, or are they elemental/elementary streams (Video-only in one file and Audio-only in another)?
I'm hoping that there is nothing wrong with the Project itself, as Encore does not have the capacities for "saving" a corrupt Project, that PrPro does.
Good luck,
Hunt

I keep losing my connection from iMac to keyboard and mouse any help please

I keep losing connection between imac and my mouse and key board.I then have to power off and reboot to get connection can anyone help please!!!!

Hi
Update date for anyone who ha suffered with the problem of losing connection to an ext HDD.
For me, the solution appears to have been achieved by making use of my old 802.11 b&g Airport Extreme base station and my new 802.11 n Airport Extreme Base Station.
My network is now setup as follows:-
Airport 802.11 n - 5GHz
Macbook Black
Apple TV
Time Capsule
Airport Express Base Station
Airport 802.11 b&g - 2.4GHz
Playstation 3
Xbox 360 Elite
Nintendo Wii
iPhones
iPod Touch
Canon Wi-fi Printer
iMac G5
Sony VAIO TX2P
I connect my ADSL line to both AEBS by ethernet, changed the settings and this has dramatically improved my connection reliability and speed when streaming movies and/or music.
Through trial & error, I have also discovered that the other problems that I have are connected to situations when restart my Macbook after a shut down or restart and my iPhone is connected. This causes iTunes to start up but due to the restart, the ext HDD is not ready and therefore, ITunes opens its local library - I now just try to remember to use the Option key to choose the library. Finally, if the laptop just runs out of juice, the ext HDD doesn't have the chance to have a friendly handshake before losing its connection. When I restart, the connection does to the HDD fails and I have to restart AEBS
I hope that helps anyone with similar problems or who wants to make the most of their fast 802.11n equipment by making is use of that kit that was maybe considered redundant - by creating a dual frequency network that maximizes speeds on 802.11 n whilst allowing use of the legacy 802.11 b&g devices.
