crash

Bought an eMac last week and used the firewire feature to send all my old pismo powerbook infor to the new machine. Great I thought, 'til it started crashing. This morning before work it crashed - dumping a load of code on screen. Couldn't get it to restart for ages - it would just crash...

I finally purchased a FireWire harddrive due to lack of space I've got on my internal 40 gig. Thinking a 160 GB Lacie harddrive for $130 was a smoking deal, I went for it. While transferring my iTunes and iPhoto folders, the Finder hung up and I couldn't get the system to "un-crash" so I had...

Whenever I try to copy the backup file for my Quicken data from my zip drive or USB flash memory, a gray shade descends on my monitor and then a message telling me to restart. This is a very consistent problem so my backup files are useless.

Hello all, I just bought a new eMac this week (1.25 ghz / 512 RAM / OS 10.3.3), and have been reinstalling all my old software etc onto this new machine. I noticed when I looked through the applications that it comes bundled with a few games one of which was Tony Hawk's Pro Skater. However...

I just updated to 10.3.4 and ever since that I have experienced iTunes and my entire system crash as soon as it finishes playing the first mp3. Mouse still moves but nothing responds to it. I've tested it 3 times, with 2 different mp3s.

Hello! Yesterday i was running the Program Update as i do maybe once a month.. I updated Quickt Time and 2 safety updates. After that i was told to restart the computer and so i did. When computer started up again the only thing on the Desktop was the Dock with several programs. I discovered...

So I finally upgraded to 10.3.3 the other day and ever since then I get the following problems: -After a while I run a download App the system crashes (about 3-4 times a day). If I don't run BT then every thing runs perfectly -Canon Image Browser crashes on start up everytime Really...

Got a small problem here that's preventing me from installing and using two of my favorite programs. It seems that ZeroG's InstallAnywhere software no longer wants to launch on my system. I know this is a Java-based installer, and I want to say that something with Java is screwed up on my...

I'm running a music program called Logic Pro 6.4.1 I seem to be getting quite a few panic crashes. I can't read the crash logs, but perhaps you might know what they mean. If you do, could you please tell me what the problem is? I'm running 10.3.3 on a G5 dual. Thanks in advance. Dean...

hi guys, was wondering if anyone has had this problem before. basically, when i try to open certain websites most, if not all my browsers crash.

Mac OS X 10.3.2 G4/350 Upon bootup, I'm dumped to the terminal (after about 5-10 seconds): /etc/master.passwd: Not a directory /etc/master.passwd: Not a directory -sh: /etc/profile: Not a directory -sh-2.05b# Any ideas how to fix it? Tried repairing disk permissions, disk repair...

Well, I've found two that 'cause Safari to hang all the time for me. They are www.soccernet.com and www.fox.com/24. (Caution, do NOT click on these unless you want to do a test). I've got the latest Flash player installed 7.19? and Quicktime 6.5 Pro. It drives me absolutely nuts that the...

I am using a 867 MHz G$ with 512 MB RAM and running 10.2.8 My trash has started to crash the machine whenever I try to empty it. Does anyone have suggestions for a fix? Thanks

I'd like to get a better understanding of the crash log's (in 10.3.2) but I don't know how / where to start looking. The help centre isn't of much help here... It says st. like 'It's possible you dont understand the log... but a technician will' ;-) Anyone experience with this?

Every day, maybe two or three times I get a hard crash (Freeze) that displays a restart warning ... I know the pics terrible, but the words say "You need to restart your computer. Hold down the power button for several seconds or press the restart button." I've unplugged things and...

For some weird reason, my external firewire drives seem intermittenly to lock up my system. I've let the computer sit for close to an hour once...couldn't access anything in the Finder. The only thing I could think to do is unplug the computer from the back, unplug the firewire drive/s, restart...

I'm posting this at the risk of getting my behind flamed to a crisp... one of my IT friends sent this to me. I've been using Mac's (and PC's) since the 80's and thought this was pretty funny (even though it pokes fun at Apple). Sorry if it's old news or if you're too much of an "Apple cult"...

Today the e-mail program Eudora started to crash every time I try to change the Fonts & Display in the Eudora Settings. I'm using Eudora 6.0.1 and Mac OS 10.3. I've deleted the setting files, erased and instaled the application without positive results.

Does anyone know of a way to fix quicktime-files that are broken because during the recording-phase the recording application did quit? i encountered this problem several times with different apps.. recording the output of a live-performance app, or grabbbing live input from a video-camera...

I dragged pictures into Safari on this website(experimentation), and Safari crashed twice. I am assuming it was from the dragged pictures. Which reminds me, how do you get pics onto your replies? I don't know how. Anyway, has that problem occurred to any of you guys out there? thanx
