Catalyst application crach

[Mr_P]

Go to the Catalyst menu
select option 'create support PDF profile'
this will create a PDF - which you can email

'Full scan' creates thumbnails of the content - and if you have corrupted content will indicate where this might be at the point it (unfortunately) crashes...

'Quick scan' (when you hold shift - or select the option from remote menu or webserver) - does not create thumbnails, and is quicker for lots of content - but may not indicate if there is any corrupted content.

Have you figured out what was happening both times when it crashed?

I'd also suggest checking to see if file sharing is turned off in Mac OS. If something else on the network is trying to access or even change a file, it might freak out a bit.

@sam-hunt

File sharing is an oldie but a goody. All to easy to leave on...

Is this a laptop or desktop machine and is it on a UPS?

We have had issues with machines with SSD's where sudden voltage spikes/dips can cause Catalyst to crash. Interestingly it does not effect spindle based drives.

If so it may be worth trying a UPS to see if that solves the problem.
