LR has been crashing lately and I don't mean just the app but my entire system.

Looking at the Log (and I'm no expert), I have fond these entries that match the time of crash:

Feb 24 12:35:37 iMac Adobe Lightroom Helper[2204]: Internals of CFAllocator not known; out-of-memory failures via CFAllocator will not result in termination. http://crbug.com/45650

Feb 24 12:35:37 iMac Adobe Lightroom Helper[2205]: Internals of CFAllocator not known; out-of-memory failures via CFAllocator will not result in termination. http://crbug.com/45650

Feb 24 12:35:39 iMac Adobe Lightroom Helper[2206]: Internals of CFAllocator not known; out-of-memory failures via CFAllocator will not result in termination. http://crbug.com/45650

Feb 24 12:36:13 iMac Adobe Lightroom Helper[2217]: Internals of CFAllocator not known; out-of-memory failures via CFAllocator will not result in termination. http://crbug.com/45650

Crash followed.

These happened while LR has in the background (hidden) and updating a collection.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

What are the specs on your machine? processor, memory, graphics card, Free hard drive space etc?

What version of the operating system do you have installed?

What exact version of Lightroom are you working with?

Is there any Cloud-solution storage in your system?

Or is all your storage and backup local to your PC but perhaps on external drives or NAS boxes?

Thanks Tony.

All my active files are stored locally and LR. I do have some files stored in the Adobe CC too. I never work on emote files; that is to say, if I need to edit a file, that file is local. A.C.

Hi, I'm not going to read through those long threads you linked to.

By the way, what does "updating a collection" mean? What specific action is this in Lightroom?

However, computer crashing is always either a driver problem, or a hardware malfunction. You need to update/re-install your drivers in case one of them is corrupted. And then you need to run diagnostics on your hardware (mother board, memory, hard disks) and also check to make sure your computer's cooling system is working properly.
