The computer is part of a network of three similar iMacs, iPads, iPhones, etc. in a small legal office.

The computer is an iMac 11,2 with 3.03GHz Core i3, 12GB RAM and plenty of room left on the 500GB HDD, which has been tested and declared fine by both AppleCare and myself. So far, I've tried:

Replacing the hard drive... no change
Wiping the original HDD and reinstalling Yosemite from the AppStore, reinstalling all applications from latest installers ( Acrobat Pro, MS Office, FireFox, Chrome, Skype, etc. all from genuine installers)... no change.

Replaced with a NEW 2015 iMac, transferred data from TimeMachine backup... no change. Returned the iMac for refund.

Reinstalled the original iMac from scratch... new Yosemite installation, fresh software installations like before... after all that done, used Migration Assistant to migrate ONLY the user account... no change... same crashing. Below is a copy of the crash log since then...

Far from here
new Yosemite installation, fresh software installations like before... after all that done, used Migration Assistant to migrate ONLY the user account... no change... same crashing.
Hi,

did you use Migration Assistant to migrate the user account including its Library ?

If yes you are likely importing the problem.

You should try importing the user account excluding its Library (~/Library).

Do you have SugarSync installed?

If so, what happens if you run without it? Did you remove the computer from your online SugarSync account, then set it up again on the iMac?

The computer is part of a network of three similar iMacs, iPads, iPhones, etc. in a small legal office.

The computer is an iMac 11,2 with 3.03GHz Core i3, 12GB RAM and plenty of room left on the 500GB HDD, which has been tested and declared fine by both AppleCare and myself. So far, I've tried:

Replacing the hard drive... no change
Wiping the original HDD and reinstalling Yosemite from the AppStore, reinstalling all applications from latest installers ( Acrobat Pro, MS Office, FireFox, Chrome, Skype, etc. all from genuine installers)... no change.

Replaced with a NEW 2015 iMac, transferred data from TimeMachine backup... no change. Returned the iMac for refund.

Reinstalled the original iMac from scratch... new Yosemite installation, fresh software installations like before... after all that done, used Migration Assistant to migrate ONLY the user account... no change... same crashing. Below is a copy of the crash log since then...

Create a new user account, reboot and login to the new user account. See if the issue still happens.

hmm - crashes with same set of software on two different Macs?

All of the crash reports appear to be software related, and not hardware issues.
You said that all apps were reinstalled from original installers
Did you then make sure that all apps were also fully up-to-date?
That would need some legwork at each app's support site. Many apps will update from within the app, but that's not always a guarantee that no update is needed.
Some apps (such as MS Office) have had numerous updates to help specifically with Yosemite issues.
You can also check in your Console/system.log, which lists actions that are recorded by date and time. You can check to see if some issue is recorded - looking for the same or similar reports at about the same time that crashes occur.

How does one migrate an account sans the library? I thought it was all or nothing.

I've suspected SugarSync before. I guess I should try to completely uninstall it since I've replaced that service with local NAS (WD MyCloud).

Do you think to log shows it as a possible culprit?

Yes, all applications were installed and updated to current versions.

You don't have to exclude ~/Library completely. By the way, ~/Library means the user account Library folder which should not be confused with /Library which is the OS system Library folder. I would suggest that you copy over only data from the backup from "~/Library/Application Support" and ~/Library/Preferences. In the "Application Support" folder is the data that is stored for the used applications for the user and in Preferences is the preference settings plist files for the applications for the user. If you look in each you should be able to identify what to copy over by the naming. So you can now remove and recreate the user accounts and copy over only the needed data. Of course data in the other folders like Desktop, Documents, etc should not be an issue copying over. Just don't copy over anything that is in root folders like /Library or /System from the backup.

One option to copy over data is to open the backup on the time machine drive, go to the latest backup, and drag and drop to the same folder location in the user account. Backup Desktop for the user to user account Desktop and so forth. Open the backup and look around and you will see what I am referring to.
