OS X V10.7 Lion :: Random Applications Quit Unexpectedly?
Mar 8, 2012
Sometimes random applications quit unexpectedly, and sometimes the Finder keeps quitting and restarting repeatedly. Last time this happened after waking the machine from hibernation, and Skype and Chrome quit. Before other applications has quit as well, such as MATLAB and Spotify. Anyone got any idea what might be amiss? I've got the newest version of everything that I'm running.
Info:
MacBook Pro (15-inch Late 2008), Mac OS X (10.7.3)
I have installed Adobe CS5 Master Collection on my MacBook Alu (late 2008) and it's works fine on 10.5.8 then I updated to 10.6 -- still works fine, until I updated to 10.7, it quit unexpectedly. I searched on the internet and I found that I must clean-install the OS X, so I do it. Then I install Adobe CS5 again and everything works fine until I updated to 10.7.3Â After I updated my MacBook to 10.7.3 I have set the system language to Thai, and didn't do anything other. I searched on the internet and found that I must Repair Disk Permission so I do it, and nothing happen, problem still occurs.Â
This issue started happening a couple of days ago on my MacBook Pro running 10.7.3. Rather strange because its isolated to a single user account. I've attempted trashing the system preferences' preference file located in my User's preference folder. The issue arrose when I downloaded a .dmg pack from OSX Daily containg 200+ screen savers and an Apple II simulator App. I have backups of the data on this computer (not a Time Machine) so I'm fine with restoring the operating system and wiping the computer - which is actually somthing I've been considering doing for a while - however, I'd like to attempt to fix the issue since its something I'm interested in.

All applications quit suddenly when I click on print or press command+P. I tried everything to solve the problem including:
1) Uninstalled and reinstalled printer driver software. 2) Removed and readded the printer in printer setup utility 3) Reinstalled the whole operating system (Tiger) and installed all the updates. 4) Then it occured to me to test the printer using other user accounts in my computer and it works fine on other accounts! So the problem is just in my user account!
I have the new MBP. I'm running OS 10.5.6 2.53 ghz intro core 2 duo 4 gigs of ram. I have enough to run it. I had issues installing it. It told me I needed 1 mb to run it. so I drug the folder into the mac HD. When the base game works perfectly. I have all the expansion games. Which works on my IMac running the same thing & my old MBP. When I install the first expansion pack & launch it the error reads. The application the sims 2 quit unexpectedly & it says the same thing when I want to relaunch.
At startup of my macbook pro with all latest updates installed I keep getting a message that "hlutil has quit unexpectedly". How can I troubleshoot this further?
I'm having an issue with the printer and scanner preferences after an upgrade from SL to lion. It keeps quitting, after several attempts I could reset the printing preferences as described in the apple support doc here [URL] but no luck it still quits. I also reset the pram and smc.

I installed Lion OS X on my iMac and was happily working on this morning within Safari for email. Tried to open iTunes and it wouldn't and was then notified that there were 5 system updates which I installed. After that I can no longer get Safari to open - notification says "Safari quit unexpectedly."

My itunes randomly, even after several restarts and re-installations, won't open and always says that itunes has "unexpectedly quit". I don't know what to do. This is what the error reads:
I just got the screen that says you need to hold down the power key and restart your computer. Anyone know why? I'm running tiger. I had about 12% battery left and I am "borrowing" my neighbors internet because mine is down right now (I'm a broke college student). I had about 1-3 bars of internet but those go in and out and fluctuate often. I've noticed my computer seems to lag because of that, I've had a lot more applications crashing.
I recently got a powerbook g4, and it was running on Mac OS X 10.4. I knew that wasn't the latest version, so I bought a mac box set. My applications were fine they all open and were fine. I installed mac os x 10.5 the next day and it took a few tries to install. When it was done I installed ilife. I have had so many problems with my computer ever since I installed those programs. My ichat, iphoto, mail, address book, and ical won't open. I get the message " the application.... unexpectedly quit." This is my first mac computer and I'm not sure what to do. I also get that message when I'm in the middle of the software updates. I have to find them on the apple website to download them.
Lately I have been noticing some applications, most memorably Safari and Pages, quitting unexpectedly. I'm just in there and boom, out of nowhere, it quits. Has anyone else had this problem or know what may be causing it? I am on a brand new 15" i5 MBP running Snow Leopard 10.6.4. I was going to switch back to Chrome from Safari, but since other apps are doing it too. I'm thinking it's not just the web browser's fault but the fault of something else on my computer.
I am running on OSX version 10.9.4?I have the latest software updates, including quicktime, java, adobe,For some reason my Skype and also my Pages applications are" unexpectedly quitting" This has been happening for a few days now. Initially i thought my skype was the problem So I had a look here and did all these steps URL>...
So clearly it isn't the application though if it's also happening with Pages. I have ran through my disk utility and tried to repair disks and files My memory and my Ram should all be fine, says there is plenty.
Have Word 2004. Don't laugh; it's been working. When got new MBP, Office worked. (Well, can't recall if PPT ever worked with it.)Excel and Word definitely did work. Two weeks ago, Excel started working sporadically, then not at all.Right now(!!), Word suddenly stopped working. "Word quit unexpectedly" and "Excel quit unexpectedly."

My MacBook Air version 10.8.3 of iPhoto keeps crashing. Message iPhoto quit unexpectedly followed with:

On Safari, it keeps giving me error messages saying "Safari Webpage Preview Fetcher has quit unexpectedly" and "QTKit has quit unexpectedly". Sometimes every few seconds. I tried using a "MultiSafari" v.4.0.5 and it does the same thing. I suspect it is because of deleting the contents of the Caches folder (which I do regularly, but never had problems with).
I was wondering if you guys could help me out. I installed that freaking Google Notifier and I have been getting this message "The application GoogleUpdateChecker quit unexpectedly" every 30 minutes.I already uninstalled it and this message is still popping up.How can I delete this file so this message won't pop up again?
Every time I boot up my iMac (27 inch, OS 10.7.3), I receive an error message labelled "Mount Notification quit unexpectedly". When I open the detail box, theatre is a lot in there, such as "Process: Mount Notification [377]" or "Parent Process: vendorservice [360]" but nothing that helps me identifying the problem, since I am not familiar with OS X as I would be with Windows 7 for example. It says that the error message is sent to Apple, but I had it for a couple of months now, so I doubt anything will happen from that that end.Â
The problem seem to start when I installed Parallels, which seem to work otherwise fine.
PowerMac G5 OS 10.5 Leopard - I am getting this error message. If I start up from Install Disk and try to Reinstall the OS, it throws an error message stating "Cannot verify Disk." If I start up from Install Disk, it goes directly to OS Installation without utility options. If I DO NOT Start up from Install Disk, little is recognized, including Main Menu Bar at top. If I insert Install Disk, it does not recognize a disk was inserted to work off. This all happened when: I chose to do a clean restore on the HD to sell the PowerMac. During the process, I had to stop it and I followed directions. Quit Install and select disk to restart from. I chose my HD and proceeded.
