mdworker crashes constantly; Spotlight re-indexes

I searched the internet and all communities, trying to find a solution to my problem of focus. I have posted in some other forums and re - write here in a way more organized these positions as well as additional information.

I recently moved my administrative user account to a former mac via firewire/lightning connection, using the application of migration. Since that time, my iMac, with the last update of El Capitan, has been continuously indexing. It takes hours (I transferred about 500 GB of files), then works OK for a short time and then starts again indexing. I have my hard drive moved into the party 'private life' Spotlight preferences and back, causing the re-indexing. I deleted the Spotlight index and was re - index by terminals of disc used to check my hard drive, used Onyx to rebuild the permissions and Utility Spotlight re-indexing. Spotlight takes a few hours to re - index, seems to work fine for a short period and then begins the reindex operation and is not available for use once more. It completely slowed down my work to a crawl, since I use Spotlight continues to extract and compare files and folders, as well as launch applications.

I noticed on the newspapers of crash mds_stores crashes and have had the crash mdworker almost everyday. SophosWebintelligence crashed on similar, but not always the same days. I deleted the software anti-viral Sophos, placed my hard drive in the section "Confidentiality" of Spotlight prefs to stop continuous indexing, started in safe mode, rebooted my desktop computer, from my hard drive out of the privacy settings, authorized Spotlight AGAIN index my drive hard for the night and thought that my problem was resolved. It lasted a day. It is now the reindexing and crash newspapers are mds_stores crashed again, but now, looking at the Console during indexing, mdworker hangs mili-second per second mili! Under diagnostic reports from users, it lists mdworker_2016 - 06 - _Dorks (several times) - iMac.crash on and under the diagnostic system reports lists mds_stores_2001 - 06-(plusieurs fois) _Dorks - iMac.crash. I also noticed that in the newspapers:

30/06/16 7:10:46.589 AM mdworker [9839]: warning: the selector Gestalt gestaltSystemVersion returns 10.9.5 instead of 10.11.5. This isn't a bug in Gestalt - it is a documented restriction. The NSProcessInfo operatingSystemVersion property to get the correct version number of system.

Location of the call:

Not sure that the above is the thing most relevant in the newspapers, but never had any problems on my most recent mac until I made the mistake to migrate my account from my old mac user. Don't know what NSProcessInfo is, but you do a search.

If anyone has any suggestions, they would be very appreciated. If any additional info would be useful, I would be happy to do so. I didn't want to post too much useless here and unnecessarily take too much of your time. I apologize for the changes of fonts, but could not figure out how to copy and paste while keeping the same style.

The first step is to get rid of "Sophos," which could be the cause of the problem and that is certainly worse than useless.

Please remove the 'Sophos' product by following the instructions on this page, so this one, if any. If you have a different version, the procedure may be different.

Back up all data before making any changes. Never install a software "anti-virus" or "anti-malware" again.

  • Windows Explorer crashes constantly on the new Asus

    I bought a new X53SV-SX288V Asus with windows 7 64 bit on it and after installing some programs Windows Explorer crashes constantly for some reason any...

    I have restored the pc to factory a couple of times now, hoping it might fix the problem, but it is persistent...

    Windows Explorer crashes often and sometimes it seems that the problem has disappeared, but then it happens randomly. When I restart the Explorer usually just, it freezes again and gives me the same error permanently after each restart of Explorer... it just crashes, restarts, block immediately, restart and so on...

    I don't know what to do. I'm not much of a geek...

    The thing is, the problem occurs only after you have installed programs. Not directly after the time I restore settings, is probably not a hardware problem (I think).

    Still, I installed an antivirus before anything else.
    First of all, I tried Comodo several times. Then Avira. And now I'm with AVG. Thus, all the programs I download should be good.

    Side note: programs Evernote who install are all widely used programs like CCleaner, Skype, iTunes, Chrome,... All of their own websites, so I do not understand how they are the problem.

    Is it possible that this is a problem material, even when the problem occurs only after you have installed (well known) programs?

    How to fix this problem?

    The shell extension which seems to be the cause of the accident is the ASUSWSShellExt64.dll:

  • CC of hearing crashes constantly.

    To give as much detail as possible:

    With the help of a laptop running windows 8.1.  I use the latest version of the CC of the hearing.  I have a Mackie MCU Pro for the via USB control surface and a Focusrite 18i20 for my audio interface.  I imported some of the v2 of export OMF files into Logic Audio. Once I import it, I save a file .sesx for the native support hearing.

    After opening, work seems to be fine, but as soon as I try things like adding effects on anything, the application starts to hang and be unable to do anything else than killed by the Task Manager.  The app is still to play the audio if I had opened audio, but its actually not not much else.  I got it during a few minutes editing on a regular basis.  Is it a problem to import OMF?  A problem with the builtin plugins?  I seem to see less crashing if I made the tracks and I'm editing of many titles, (sometimes up to 30 I think that, as it's the music of my group that I mix)

    I was with logic 8, but its not supported on Mavericks more and only partly working, so I'm moving to the hearing.

    Any ideas what could be causing crash constantly?   If I register, then make another change, I was OK, but definitely lost some data.  When it crashes, continue using used to confuse me because it does not by default display of the multitrack session .sesx, instead it showed one of the audio files randomly.  The last time that I had an accident, I realized that and seem to see that it can be save correctly, and I have to select the main session, not the audio file it does default to.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can make the application more stable?

    ~ Phil

    In the sake of troubleshooting, have you tried working without connected Mackie control surface?

    I'm running Flash Builder CS5 in a box of 64 bit Windows 7 HP and it crashes constantly during the strike, selection of text, collage and other normal actions in the editor.

    Anyone has an idea why it may crash all the time? I'm not under all versions of Eclipse or Aptana on this machine.

    Thank you!

    My first try would be to stop the automatic generation process. You can do this in the Project menu. Then when you run it builds, or you can just press command-B to build.

    If this isn't the case, then it is maybe something wrong with your instalation and/or plugins. Or just something wrong with your overall computer. Try reinstalling Flash Builder. If all else fails at this point, try to set up the environment on another computer just to see what happens.

    Also, try to think how do you have this problem start and address this problem.
