Mid 2010 MacBook Pro continually reboots with kernel panic after upgrading to Mac OS X 10.8

Question

Mid 2010 MacBook Pro continually reboots with kernel panic after upgrading to Mac OS X 10.8

My Mid 2010 MacBook Pro continually reboots with kernel panics after upgrading to Mac OS X 10.8.

I have already tried repairing the disk, repairing the disk permissions and resetting the parameter ram. Nothing works.

I can get it to boot into safe mode which is how I got the kernel panic report below.

It looks like the problem lies in apples code

com.apple.iokit.AppleProfileFamily(41.4)

and

com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily(2.7)

I submitted the report to apple.

Now, I guess I will just restore from a time machine backup and wait for 10.8.1 to try again.

I have found that removing

/System/Library/Extensions/AppleProfileFamily.kext

Will finally allow 10.8 to boot correctly.

It seems that AppleProfileFamily.kext might be an old peice of XCode version 3.x that was somehow left over when I installed XCode 4.x

Just wanted to mention that this seems to have worked for me - many thanks!

Out of curiosity, how do you know it's related to XCode 3? I had just (partially) installed it in an attempt to get the iOS 4.3 simulator back, and then couldn't boot, so it seems very likely, but I don't know that I would have ever looked at that particular kext.

Well, based on the panic report I knew the problem was related to com.apple.iokit.AppleProfileFamily

I also knew from it's name that Apple had written it and I was thus hesitant to just delete it as it

might have been something important.(and I think it is rather important for XCode 3.x).

So, I googled it to see if I could figure what it's purpose was and it seemed to be part of XCode 3.x.

I also found where it was located in

/System/Library/Extensions/AppleProfileFamily.kext

Like you, I had also previously tried to make XCode 3.x coexist with XCode 4.x.

However, I quickly decided to switch completely to XCode 4.x and since, I was no longer using XCode 3.x at all I figured it should be safe to delete it. Luckily, it seems my analysis was correct.🙂

*headdesk* Oh, of course: "Kernel Extensions in backtrace: ..." I should learn to read the top more carefully.

Thanks again 🙂

This was my problem as well. Thanks so much for your post. I knew it had something to do with Xcode. I was trying to install the old version because my iPhone simulator was not working. Before it was done installing ti crashed and I wasn't able to run it unless it was on safe mode. 24 hours later, I'm back.

This has solved my problem too! I installed 10.8.1 Mountain Lion two days ago and have been starting up in Safe Mode and picking through potential problems without thinking to bring up the panic reports. AppleProfileFamily.kext was the only one, so today I removed it and, voilà! Everything works perfectly.

Thank you so much!

Perfect!!!

For this error:

Kernel Extensions in backtrace:

com.apple.iokit.AppleProfileFamily(41.4)[4BC9C97F-3E13-2C3B-BEC1-6F543CD58C77]@ 0xffffff7f95044000->0xffffff7f9508ffff

Removing the directory:

rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions/AppleProfileFamily.kext

Solves the problem Thank you so much mr JosephNessey!

Ps: At least on 10.8 ML.

Thank you so much again, i was desperate about to go in some genius bar 😟

So how do I go about doing this? I seem to have the same issue and would love to see if this is the solution! Thank you in a advance.
