Why Safari crashes the whole computer once in while?

Safari crashes without an aparent reason and it crashes all the system at the same time. And it's also slower than other browsers.

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.
In the Console window, look under the heading DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION on the left for crash or panic reports. If you don't see that heading, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
A crash report has a name that begins with the name of the crashed process and ends in ".crash". It may be under either of the two subcategories, "System" and "User." A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic".
Select the most recent of each and post the entire contents — the text, please, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header 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 log — they're very long and not helpful.

  • When I change size of icons or icon vs list display, why does it affect the whole computer?

    When I change size of icons, or icon vs list display, why does it affect the whole computer? In some folders I want to see a list and others I want to see an icon and I don't need a large icon in all folders. I used to be able to set each folder separately in the old OS. How do I fix this?

    I can hilight an item, go to the finder/file/getinfo but there is no box next to icon view.
    I can go to view/options and adjust the icon size etc, but this applies to every folder in the whole computer. I need varied options in different folders, i.e., I want to view images as icons and text as text. I have to change it every time I open a folder. I used to be able to set it per folder in the old OS.

  • Why won't my imac email send unless I restart the whole computer?

    why won't my imac email send unless I restart the whole computer?

    Two things, first see if it shows up in "Apple > About This Mac > More Info.. > Disc Burning" . If you still see it there the system still recognizes it but it isn't responding. Next do a
    SMC RESET
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
    Wait 15 seconds.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
    The 5 second timing is important to a successful reset.
    Hopefully this will reset the power to the drive.

  • HELP! Safari 5.1.10 on OSX 10.6.8: All of a sudden in the last few days, when Safari is launched it is trying to load hundreds of pages at the same time, hanging up the whole computer

    HELP! Safari 5.1.10 on OSX 10.6.8: All of a sudden in the last few days, when Safari is launched it is trying to load hundreds of pages at the same time, hanging up the whole computer. What the heck happened?

    I misunderstood the settings. A few days ago I had tried to set it to open a specific page upon launch, and set "New windows open with: Bookmarks" instead of ":Homepage"

    If you think getting your web pages to appear OK in all the major browsers is tricky then dealing with email clients is way worse. There are so many of them.
    If you want to bulk email yourself, there are apps for it and their templates will work in most cases...

  • I use alfa and the whole computer crashes.

    I bought pages and keynotes and when i try to use alfa to make  picture transparent the whole computer stops working. This computer is new and think i will have it taken back to the store i got from here in honduras. The name is Jetstereo.

    If these people you are buying your Macs from are licenced Apple dealers you can complain to Apple.
    Apple sets a high standard for it's dealerships.
    I think you quoted the Hard Drive size and not how much memory (RAM) you have installed:
    Menu > Apple > About this Mac > Memory: ?
    It is possible that you may be trying to do Instant Alpha on a very large image which is requiring a lot of memory (RAM). It is also possible that the dealer, if they are not a good dealer, has installed faulty cheap extra RAM in your Mac which could cause a problem when the computer tries to do something that requires a lot of extra RAM.
    btw You are not talking to Apple here. If your computer is under warranty however you can call them and ask for assistance directly:

  • Why does my iPhoto freeze the whole computer when editing?

    Every time I edit in iPhoto, the whole computer freezes after about a dozen adjustments of any kind. I have to manually shut down and restart as no key commands allow access to any other app or the Finder.

    Hi, Terence ~
    I'm using iPhoto '11, v. 9.1.5
    with ± 5,000 photos in current iPhoto Library
    running SnowLeopard, 10.6.8 --
    capacity: 750 GB; available 695 GB
    on my Mac mini >>>
      Model Identifier:          Macmini1,1
      Processor Name:          Intel Core Duo
      Processor Speed:          1.66 GHz
      Number Of Processors:          1
      Total Number Of Cores:          2
      L2 Cache:          2 MB
      Memory:          2 GB
      Bus Speed:          667 MHz
      Boot ROM Version:          MM11.0055.B08
      SMC Version (system):          1.3f4
    The freezing has been happening for quite some time, since before I upgraded to Snow Leopard, before I upgraded to iPhoto '11 from iPhoto '09, before I upgraded my mac mini from a solo ore machine to a duo core with much more HD space, etc. I think it started when I first installed iPhoto '09 , but my memory fails me. I have had other events interspersed with this recurring annoyance, hoping that it would go away during one of the upgrades I mentioned. However, it persists. I have wondered about reinstalling iPhoto, but do not know if that means I will lose all my editing changes.
    I do not know about any Console messages you refer to, but perhaps I am missing something. How would I find out? I do know that I am exhausted and frustrated by this. When the editing process causes the freezing, I cannot use any of the key escapes, cannot even shut down other than manually. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you for taking an interest in my dilemma.

  • Mackeeper has detected a virus in the time capsule back up - it is not possible to dele - it ite the file. Do I find time capsule in finder and delete the whole computer back up, then crate a fresh back up? Is that the only solution please?

    mackeeper has detected a virus in the time capsule backup, it is not possible to delete the infected file. Do I mount time capsule in finder and then consign to junk the whole computer backup then create a fresh backup? Is that the only solution please.

    Follow these instructions to uninstall MacKeeper. They have been tested with the most recent version of MacKeeper. Earlier versions than the one released in 2012 require more extensive work to uninstall all its components. Never install such junk on a Mac.
    If you actually used MacKeeper to alter your system, e.g. "remove excess binaries" or such, you will need to reinstall OS X as well as all your additional software. Uninstalling MacKeeper is insufficient to reverse the corruption it is capable of - once again, that is if you used it.
    If you merely installed MacKeeper but did not use it to perform any particular action, the following instructions will suffice.
    If you used MacKeeper to encrypt any files or folders, use MacKeeper to un-encrypt them first.
    Quit the MacKeeper app if it is running.
    Open your Applications folder: Using the Finder's Go menu, select Applications.
    Drag the MacKeeper icon from your Applications folder (not the Dock) to the Trash.
    You will be asked to authenticate (twice):
    You do not need to provide a reason for uninstalling it:
    Just click the Uninstall MacKeeper button. You will be asked to authenticate again.
    After it uninstalls you may empty the Trash and restart your Mac. All that will remain is an inert log file that does nothing but occupy space on your hard disk.
    May I suggest that you review the following setting in System Preferences?
    Although you may easily override that setting, it will serve to protect you from inadvertently installing garbage. The overwhelming majority of Macs I come across have the MacKeeper installer file already present in their Downloads folder, often multiple copies of it. The downloaded file itself can do nothing until it is opened and installed, and the above setting (known as Gatekeeper - not to be confused with MacKeeper) will prevent that from occurring.

  • ITunes causing Beachball of Death bringing down the whole computer.

    My iTunes problems started about 3 months ago. Whenever I use iTunes (playing a song, downloading a podcast, syncing my iPhone, etc...) I get the beachball which never goes away. iTunes finishes playing the song that is currently playing but I am not be able to do anything with the program itself. Initially for about 15-20 seconds I can switch to other programs like the Finder or Safari but eventually those become frozen with the beachball as well. After about 20-25 seconds the whole computer locks up. I have tried to force quit but cannot even get that dialogue box to do so. I eventually have to power down the computer manually (switch in the back) and turn it back on. This problem does not happen every time I use iTunes but most of the time. Tends to happen when I am trying to do multiple things. I can sync my iPhone usually without a problem. But it seems if I try to play a song as well then I will get the problem. I am running ITunes 8.2.1 on Mac OS X 10.5.7 on an iMac 3.06 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4GB of ram (installed by apple). This issues only happens with iTunes and no other program.
    What I have already tried to fix the problem without benefit --
    1. Delete the iTunes Library and rebuilding it (multiple times).
    2. Reinstalling iTunes and upgrading to the latest version.
    3. Using the Disk Utility to repair the Disk Permissions and Repairing the main Disk of the computer where the ITunes Library resides.
    4. Checking the computer for viruses (Virus Barrier X5)
    5. Reinstalling Leopard and then upgrading back to 10.5.7
    6. Bought Disk Warrior -- installed it and Leopard on backup external HD and checked the main HD of the computer for issues with Disk Warrior. It fixed a few issues like permissions but nothing that fixed the problem.
    7. Deselected Movies, TV Shows, Audiobooks, Genius, Radio, iTunes DJ and Ringtones (I need Music, Podcasts and Applications) from the General Prefs -- made it faster but did not fix the problem.
    8. Deinstalled DIVX and Flip4mac.
    My computer almost never froze before these past 3 months and I was real proud of that. Now I am just frustrated. Scanning the internet shows similar problems but not exactly the same. I am out of ideas. I will be eternally grateful for any other ideas that might lead to a fix. I am trying to avoid backing up and then wiping the HD and doing a clean install.

    Same problem here. Jumped through all the hoops. This is my new, thought-it-would-be-a-real-efficiency-boost audio production machine. I've lost soooo much production time dinking around with this.

  • My Lr 5.3 keep crashing the win7 computer. I have used Lr since ver1. Schully.

    my Lr 5.3 keep crashing the win7 computer. I have used Lr since ver1. Schully.

    You have not provided this info, but my guess (thinking out of the box)
    a. You are low on free disk space on your main Hard Drive. You should seek to have at least 20% of the full capacity of the drive free at all times, the more free space the better. e.g If your main HDD is 500GB you should have 100GB or more free.
    Why I think this is the problem? Your system specs just about meets the minimum requirements of Lightroom Version 5. You are using a 32 bit OS so in effect you are limited to 3GB of ram, version 5 would perform better on 64Bit system. Having plenty of Hard Drive space will assist the limited memory.
    b. The drive may be failing and you should make sure you have secure backups of your files (Catalog File & Original Image files.)
    c. Faulty or failing ram module.

  • Aperture freezes the whole computer

    I have Aperture 3. I can use all the preset adjusments and run through the whole program no problem but i have an issue where every time i go to use a brush tool for a short amount of time it freezes the whole computer to the point where i have to force shut down. I have a Macbook pro 15" Retina with 8gb RAM, 250gb SSD, Intel Hd Graphics 4000 and NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1GB of GDDR5  (so the lower end MBPR). I have created new libraries and i have reinstalled the most recent update but it still does it. I was told by my AV teacher who is a Mac Genius to create a new account on my computer and run it through that account and i did and it seems to be fine. how do i fix it on my regular account? what could be wrong? help and advice would be great! Thanks!

    Try to find the differences between your regular account and the new account where Aperture works.
    Compare your preference settings in Aperture.
    Check your start-up items in in the Users&Groups panel. Do you use different start up items when logging in?
    Have you installed any software, that is only used in your account and not installed for all users, like Cameras of Flexibit?
    Make sure your Aperture library is in working condition. Crashes can have left it corrupted, so use the Aperture Library first Aid Tools to repair the permissions and the database, see:
    Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library: Aperture 3 User Manual
    SInce the problem is restricted to your account, remove the User preferences from the User Library, if none of the above fixed the problem, see teh paragraph on preferences in
    Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics
    and if that does not suffice, remove the presets.
    Regards

  • How do I search under a folder (and not the whole computer)

    I want to search for files under a specific folder
    How do I do this?
    When I search, the whole computer is searched
    Thanks
    Omar

    One thing that'll work is (in 10.7.5, at least)
    1) open the folder you want to search, using the Finder
    2) Type your search text into the Finder's Search box
    3) In the Search bar at the top of the results, select the name of the folder.
    Good luck

  • My external HD of 1TB is not being recognized by the iMac and when after a long waiting period it does, the whole computer becomes extremely slow. Do I need any particular add-on to make it workable?

    My external HD of 1TB is not being recognized by the iMac and when after a long waiting period it does, the whole computer becomes extremely slow. Do I need any particular add-on to make it workable?
    Before I updated to OS X Mavericks I was using another external disk that was getting disconnected ocasionally so I bought a new ADATA HD710 portable 1TB Drive and moved the files to it. This new drive which is supposed to be OS X Mavericks compatible takes minutes to show the files especially when opening second and third level folders which has made mu iMac unusable
    What should I do?

    Your Mac should be able to recognize many different types of drives (including Windows-formatted drives) immediately for Reading, provided they are in good working condition and not damaged. There should be no need to transfer to a different type of drive.
    If there is no recognition of this drive, see if it can be seen in Disk Utility.
    If your aim is to transfer the data on it DO NOT use ERASE or PARTITION as these will completely erase all the information on the Drive.
    If the drive is present while the Mac sleeps, it is likely to drop out and not be seen any longer, especially if it is a USB-powered drive.

  • Adobe Flash Player 10 when installed closes the whole computer as soon as it is selected to 'play' a video clip from U Tube or any other source, I have uninstalled it and the problem goes away but I cannot play the clip.any answers?

    Adobe Flash Player 10, when installed, closes the whole computer when it is used to play any clip from U Tube or other source. I uninstalled it and there was no further trouble but, of course, I cannot view the clip. If I reinstall it the same problem persists. I have contacted my 'computer guru' but his comment is that many of his clients have the same problem but it appears to be a problem with Adobe however many other friends have put in the version 10 Flash Player and have no problems. I do not appear to have any other problems with the computer such as viruses etc and it is scanned very day for such items. I would appreciate any advice you can give as it is very annoying, thanks, RAB

    Me too!
    On both IE8 and Firefox. Win 7 32 bit on IBM T42 - 1GB ram.
    Old laptop I know but the 10.1.x.x Flash Players worked just fine. Problem started with 10.2.152.26 flash player.
    Now BBC TV live and iPlayer work just fine, however YouTube does not - audio but no video. Just a black rectangle where the video should be.
    Right click to get the menu and "settings" is greyed out. However select the pop-out option and the video plays. Right click on the pop-out and "settings" is available. So deselect "enable hardware acceleration", close the pop-out and refresh the window (F5) and now YouTube videos play. Switch hardware acceleration back on and now they don't.
    This video works fine with hardware acceleration enabled. http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/features/video/h264/
    These also work. http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/stagevideo.html
    Something broken in 10.2, I think.
