Q: Random Kernel Panics even after Clean Install from Genius Bar

Despite being "all apple" I'm about fed up with these kernel panics and ready to convert!

 

I believe these started with Lion... I'm now fully updated on Maverick.

Nothing has seemed to change.

 

I took my iMac to the Genius Bar after I finally figured out a way to replicate a panic.

 

After all sorts of memory, and other hardware tests they suggested and performed a clean sweep.

I came home, restored with Time Machine, and thought all was well...

 

Now, a week later I'm back to having restarts in the middle of extensive projects. 

I've had two in the past two hours.

 

I initially diagnosed it as anytime a large file (2GB+) was being moved, saved, or when a back up or virus scan was being performed.

Then it happened at other times and proved that wrong.

 

Then I assumed it was RAM. I took it out, cleaned, and performed multiple tests. All was good and up.

 

Then I could reproduce it while working with a LARGE file in iMovie.

Thats when I took it to the Bar.

 

Now, I'm long out of iMovie and working mainly in Google Chrome with nothing else opened, but Evernote, and FileZilla, which I have used for years.

 

The last two panics have included the :  0xdeadbeefdaadbeef

 

Could it be the grapics drivers? Using

NVIDIA GeForce 9400

  Type:          GPU

  Bus:          PCI

  VRAM (Total):          256 MB

  Vendor:          NVIDIA (0x10de)

  Device ID:          0x0869

  Revision ID:          0x00b1

  ROM Revision:          3454

 

 

 

 

Any Help?

I can post the panics if needed...

iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9), late 2009 21.5" 8GM

    Thanks to all. I am attempting to remove some of those third party programs left from the previous owner. The apps had been "deleted" (long ago) but looks like some extensions and other things remained...

    Not having great luck, but we'll see.

     

    I am going to try to cut all of them out of the picture.

     

    I have been suspect of the RAM from the get go thanks to this community.

     

    I ran Rember prior to the Genuis Bar, and they also ran the Apple checks, and all came out fine.

    Could the RAM be tempramental? For instance- we had a storm a couple of days ago, day prior to it acting up again, I also moved the Computer to another desk during that time.

     

    The RAM is snug, to my knowledge- just trying to exhaust any potential possabilities...

     

     

    Thanks again for all of the wisdom! I'm well over my head.

    The first thing to do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You — not the previous owner — must do that. How you do it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.

    1. You don't own another Mac.

    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.

    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. For early MBA models, you may need a USB optical drive or Remote Disc. You should have received the media from the previous owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.

    To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.

    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.

    2. You do own another Mac.

    If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to create a bootable USB device and boot the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. Alternatively, if you have a Time Machine backup of OS X 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a Time Capsule or other network device), you can boot from that by holding down the option key and selecting it from the row of icons that appears. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.

    Once booted in Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive.

    After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. You will need the Apple ID and password that you used to upgrade. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.

    Then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. To upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.

    If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Mac App Store Customer Service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.

    If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to  authorize it immediately under your ID. In that case, you'll either have to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.

    Hi there, I'm wondering if anyone would be able to case an eye over my kernel panic to try and narrow down the cause as this has been going on for some time now -  currently running on a fresh installation and brand new RAM. Thanks all for your help in advance!
