Does anyone else have this problem? I haven't had a kernel panic on my machine in years. I re-installed WoW a couple weeks ago and have since had 4 kernel panics, all while playing WoW... It could be some combination of WoW + something else, I suppose. Just wondering if any other Mac users have had this happen to them.

The panic log should tell you exactly where it's crashing.
It'll be in /Library/Logs/CrashReporter/ in a file called panic.log.
Hmm... Don't seem to have a panic.log in there... Not in ~/Library/Logs... either. SpotLight can't find one either. There is a "PanicReporter" folder but it is empty.
edit: found them: /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/Kernel_<Date time>_<Machine name>.panic. Investigating now...
I've had so many errors since cata, never with tbc or wotlk. I've had kernel panics, graphics freak outs that would send an epileptic into seizure...My most recent was a problem with lock screen + WoW. My poor MacPro has been hard shut down more times in the last week than in the rest of the two years I've had it.
Well try deleting your Addons the cache folder and the WTF folder. restart ur wow with no addons, and play it through until you believe you should get the kernel panic. if nothing happens its the addons.
