    Kernel protection failure?

    Update: I deleted the copy of Firefox that I had in the Applications folder, then drag-dropped the new copy. It worked perfectly fine. I had the same issue while attempting to install an update for Toast Titanium. I have not deleted the current copy, because I do not know if the update is a...

    Kernel protection failure?

    Thanks. I don't have an install disk, and I really don't care that much about Safari, to track down a disk and do a reinstall. I have internet, and my computer is mostly functional, just this Safari and Firefox issue. If I have any major issues I will. I think I'm going to wait for the next...

I am using Firefox from the admin account, but when I tried to drag and drop into the Applications folder, It asked me if I wanted to replace the...

    Select a destination Volume.

    Without more information, the only suggestion I can give is: just try rebooting. That happened to me once, I rebooted and it worked fine.

Ok, so now the volume does not appear on the desktop, and it launches fine from the same user account, but it still crashes on the admin. Do I need to reboot, or do anything else? This is not the clearest post, so if I need to...

    Kernel protection failure?

    Yes, I tried to launch from both other accounts. I get the standard message "The application Safari quit unexpectedly. Mac OS X and other applications are not affected. etc." Firefox is not sitting underneath a user folder. When I launch it on the non-admin account, a volume pops up on the...

    DS_Store

    Downloading Onyx and unchecking "show hidden files" will also solve stop the .DS_Store files from appearing. You can also do it via terminal, type: "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool false" without the quotes, it is case sensitive. Then hit enter, and type "killall Finder"...

    Kernel protection failure?

    If anyone has a solution for this, I would really appreciate it. Yesterday, I tried to open Safari and got this error: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001) KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE (0x0002) at 0x00000020 Thread 0 crashed 0 objc_msg_Send_rtp+24 It listed other threads, but I didn't think I needed...
