Apps crashing constantly

Hi everybody,



First things first, I'm an FNG here so if I have posted this thread in the wrong section, plz don't spank me, just show me in the right direction. I also used the search function and nothing with my symptoms came up, which is why I am posting this thread.



Yesterday evening i upgraded from 10.6.5 to 10.6.6 via the integrated Software Update option in System Preferences (I guess that means that I installed what is being referred to as the Delta Upgrade?), of course I was so stupid that I didn't make any Back-Ups...



After the reboot, which went smoothly though slower than usual, I tried to start Spotify and it crashed repeatedly, always right after the start and always with the same error message ( I will add that one below). Pretty soon i noticed that other Apps also are affected, among those iTunes, MSN msngr and Skype.



So after bit of downloading the newest versions of all the apps and installing them it still didn't work, I also tried Disk Utility->Repair Permissions, to no effect. Then I read a tip somewhere about deleting the Cashes in Home>Library ; Mac HD>Library and Mac HD>System>Library which surprisingly resulted in a working Spotify at least until i shut the Mac down and rebooted it. After that, same crashes, same error messages. Afterwards I rebooted in the Hardware Check mode and ran a check which concluded that everything was OK...



I have also downloaded&installed the 10.6.6 Combo Update from Apple but that didn't help either.



Are those "symptoms" I described common after an OS Update?

And is there anything I can do to solve them?



Thanks very much in advance for any help!

Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.

Usually not.

That suggests that you may be running Spotify from a mounted "dmg" file instead of doing a proper install. Since I don't use Spotify I can't give you advice on what to do, but the Spotify Web site might be able to help.

There's more in a crash report that might be useful in solving the problem.

There are other things you might try:

1) If you do a "safe boot" by holding down a "shift" key during booting, do those applications crash?
2) If you create another account, can that account run those applications without crashing?

First, thanks William Boyd, Jr. for taking time to view my post and writing a reply!

That suggests that you may be running Spotify from a mounted "dmg" file instead of doing a proper install. Since I don't use Spotify I can't give you advice on what to do, but the Spotify Web site might be able to help.

The website states that the Application will suggest to let it move itself to the Apps Folder and after doing this it should be done.

I wasn't sure how to attach a file to a post (is it even possible?) but I can post the entire crash report if that is of any help to you?

1) Yes, they still crash with what seems to be the same error message
2) I created a new UserAcc with full Admin-privileges but both iTunes and Spotify still crash

This may be, but you may have missed that invitation.

Don't try to attach a file. Just copy the text into your post.

This may be, but you may have missed that invitation.

No the invite popped up as I mounted the .dmg file and I klicked Yes to move it into the App-folder.

Don't try to attach a file. Just copy the text into your post.

You're now running Spotify from the Applications folder, so it seems to be installed properly.

Version: 0.4.9.295.gf1902819 (40900295)


A version number like that suggests that it's "beta" software, which means it's still in a testing phase. Although it doesn't describe fixing your problem, there seems to be a "preview" version available here:

http://download2.spotify.com/preview/spotify-app-0.4.9.308.g83cef35c.dmg

The Spotify forums didn't seem to have any mention of OS X crashing. There was a comment about reporting bugs.

Exception Type: EXC BADACCESS (SIGBUS)


Some piece of code tried to refer to an invalid memory address.

Well I took the MBP with me to the local Macstore this afternoon and there the technician pretty quickly concluded that indeed my HD is in the process of failing so the invalid memory adress is most probably on a sector of the HD which already has failed, it seems. That also means the memory check I performed myself wasn't correct.

So that should be the explanation for my Apps crashing, how this is connected to the update or if its just a coincidence, he couldn't explain though.

Thank you very much William for taking the time to review my posts and trying to think of a solution including researching the spotify website! I really appreciate it!

We tend to blame software, but some times it really is the hardware...

Although virtual memory uses disk space, the memory check you ran checked RAM, not check the disk, so I'd believe the memory test results that your RAM is OK.

I seem to be having the same problem. After 10.5.8 refused to boot from my main drive, but would boot off my externals (Disk Utility found no issues), I upgraded to 10.6, then ran an update to 10.6.6. Now, anything that requires keychain access for a password (Mail, certain pages on Safari: TitanTV, etc) crash that program, usually before I have a chance to manually enter the password.

I've deleted the passwords stored in Keychain, and SO FAR, it seems to have solved the problem in Mail. I just have to re-enter everything in the application. With the Websites, I entered the passwords FIRST, then cut and paste my username in before it has a chance to suggest something from the Keychain.

Apps crashing constantly
