It turned out that there was a kext leftover from a program I had deleted. After checking around with a few other forums, a helper poster read my kernel panic logs and suggested that I uninstall the third-party kexts, and see if that fixed the problem. Well there were not any new crashes, and I think I might have found the solution to this problem. (SOLVED!) Re: 2006 iMac keeps giving kernel panics!

If someone here would be gracious enough to help me decode these logs and find out what is happening with my Mac, I would be much obliged! Based on the TechTool Pro report, I suspect the hard drive, but that might not be it. I've also enclosed a snapshot of the TechTool Pro test result of the hard drive in the Mac. I've attached a copy of the readout from the first application crash log from the first panic, and the two kernel panic logs in the Console.app. This time, they both left actual kernel panic logs in the Logs directory. The iMac gave me two more kernel panics after that, both on the same day. I did find the kernel panic log, which was just a crashed application log. After ensuring I had my Time Machine backed up with the latest changes to my system, I ran TechTool Pro on my Mac, and found that the Hardware ECC Recovered range looked questionable, but I'm not sure if i should worry about it. I rebooted again as usual, crossed my fingers, and lo and behold I am back in business! It scanned the drive, and found a few damaged files, which I repaired by rebuilding the file directory.

I shut down the Mac again and this time booted from a DiskWarrior USB stick I had created for just such emergencies. I also ran fsck -f in Terminal, but it didn't report anything strange either. I ran Disk Utility, which reported no errors, but I wasn't convinced. I restarted again, this time selecting the Recovery HD partition, which successfully started up. I ran into the grey prohibitory sign, so I rebooted the Mac and attempted to use Safe Mode, but the Mac shut down while I held the Shift key. I waited a few seconds, and then turned the Mac back on. I was suddenly assaulted with the kernel panic screen, and after a few seconds the Mac shut off. I was listening to music, browsing the net, and had a few programs open.

If you see anything else in the report that jumps out at you, please advise. How do I get rid of this? I've attached the etreCheck report below.
Tech tool pro agent software#
However, etrecheck shows under "Launch Agents" and "Launch Daemons" that some part of the software is still embedded somewhere. After shutting down and then restarting the computer, I don't get any more conflict messages in the console. And when I found out that the diagnostic software from Micromat was conflicting I used the company's uninstallers to get rid of (1) Protogo4 (which includes TechtoolPro7), and (2) Checkmate. I used the console and etrecheck to chase down a bunch of parasites.
