MacBook pro, won't Log in, debugger called Panic  comes up, and prompts me to restart, when re-started same issue occurs

You need to restart your computer,
My MacBook pro 17inch 8g ram i7 won't log in, it says "unable to find driver for this Platform"  Debugger Called Panic
This keeps coming up after re-starting it.

If remote logins are not enabled, don't know how you can do it now if you can't login.
Do the "other" Macs see the problem Mac in the list of "Devices"?
From a Terminal window on another Mac, try this:
     # assume IP address of problem mac is 192.168.99.10 and the username is xxx
     ssh [email protected]
If you don't know the IP address, there might be a way to figure it out depending on your network setup.
If you get a prompt for the password then give it and it should log you in. If you get a "refused" message of some kind, then you can't login. Also you will get a prompt the first time you "ssh" in about adding the RSA key to your list of "known hosts".
If that doesn't work I'm at a loss. Have you tried booting safe mode? Have you tried Recovery Mode and verify disk? -- never mind just read where you've already done this. Do you have a bad GPU and it's causing the display to do bizarre things?

  • My MacBook Pro won't log me in at the log in screen

    My MacBook Pro won't log me in at the lag in screen. It won't restart and it's the right password (won't do the vibrating thing that it does when it's the wrong password). Any suggestions?? I really can't do anything on it.... Command-r doesn't work and neither does shift.

    You are supposed to press Command-r as soon as you push the power button to turn the computer on.
    I hope I helped.

  • My MacBook Pro won't connect to the Internet, but my phone and PC will.

    My MacBook Pro won't connect to the Internet. My iPhone has no problem doing so, and neither does my PC. I think it's something to do with my DNS, but I'm not sure. My network connections say that both my Ethernet or FireWire are failed. What's wrong with my MacBook? Is there a simple way to fix this?

    Hello Rattisate,
    Sorry to hear you are not able to connect to Wi-Fi on your MacBook Pro.  I would be concerned about this too.  You can find information on how to troubleshoot this in the following article:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4628
    Follow the steps in the section labeled, "Symptom: My Mac does not connect to the Internet."
    Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.

  • My macbook pro won't log into iMessage or facetime

    I've tried several times to fix this issue, by deleting my keychain, unchecking the SOCKS proxy and by restarting the macbook pro, yet it won't log in to Imessage or Facetime. The box that appears says imessage was unable to log in and to check my network connection. My wifi works fine.
    Apple Colombia has been less than helpful with this, they don't seem to even have an idea of what they're doing. I'm getting desperate as these are important business tools I need to use for my work. Help is much appreciated!

    Ok.  Found something that said to shut down and hold the option, command, p, and r keys on restart.  Held them down for a few restarts and everything automatically signed in and works.  Woohoo!!!

  • MacBook Pro won't log in suddenly

    I have a 2012 MacBook Pro that I mostly use for music programs, such as Logic, Ableton Live, and for work (documents, photoshop, etc.)
    Last night it was working fine, and did not install any software as far as I know, and then I woke up and I cannot log in anymore. What happens is when I get to the login screen, the screen flickers and does this weird garbled mess, then I am able to type in my password. It pauses, does a garbled mess again, and then I am again at the login screen. I try again, and same thing. It just won't let me log in for some reason. It's not my password, that for sure is right, for some reason it just won't let me log in.
    I did everything that people suggested online - reset the PRAM, tried safe mode, and even booted from disk and re-installed the OS. Still, the same problem. It tries to log in, goes garbled, and then puts me back at the login.
    Please help, no time capsule, and I have some pretty important documents I need to retrieve.
    Thanks!

    If remote logins are not enabled, don't know how you can do it now if you can't login.

  • New macbook pro won't turn on unless it's plugged in and won't charge

    I just bought a new MacBook Pro and it won't turn on unless it's plugged in.  When I unplug it, it immediately shuts down.

  • How can I get iTunes 10.5.2 on my MacBook Pro to recognize my iPod Classic (especially because the Finder and desktop DO show it when I plug it in)?

    When I plug my iPod Classic into my MacBook Pro, the iPod appears on the desktop and automatically launches iTunes.  The iPod also appears in the Finder.  But no mtter how long the beach ball spins in iTunes, it never recognizes my iPod.  I am using iTunes 10.5.2.  I don't think it's the connecting cable or the iPod, since it works on other computers.  From what I have read on the support forums, it seems like the problem might have been upgrading iTunes.  But I am not sure how to downgrade and am fearful of losing my music.  Help?

  • Macbook Pro won't boot past grey screen with Apple logo and then shuts off

    This is a long story...
    This morning, I would turn it on and it'd go to the grey screen with the Apple logo for a few seconds and then go to the icon that is a circle with a line through it. After reading online, I was able to boot it up in Safe Mode. I messed around a little bit in system preferences thinking I could fix it on my own, not really knowing what I was doing (I'm a *******). I went to Startup Disk in Preferences. I chose the MAC OS X, xxxx and then clicked the lock to prevent further changes and then clicked restart.
    Now when I turn on the macbook, it goes to the grey screen with the Apple logo for at least two-three minutes and then just shuts off. Won't boot into Safe Mode now. Please help. I already tried the Command-Option-P-R keys trick like five times.

    If you have a full retail DVD for 10.6 you can boot from that by holding the C key during startup...but you will then be in install mode if that is what you want to do.  At least go ahead and see if it will boot ok from the 10.6 disk and then you can decide what you want to do further.
    Apple does not have 10.5 for sale anymore from what some other users have said on here so if you want to go that route you will have to find a copy for sale such as from eBay or one of the Mac resellers.
    Before taking the machine to someone, try booting from 10.6 and see if that works...that way you can narrow down problems the machine may be having.

  • My brand new MacBook pro won't shut down, the display screen is on and the pointer moves, but otherwise it's stuck!

    I gave the command to shut down, but all that happened was the the dock cleared, leaving nothing but the wallpaper behind along with a moving pointer. I got it yesterday, so it's brand new. What could be the problem?

    Hi b,
    Hold the power button down for 5-10 seconds and it will shut down. Wait a minute or so before starting up again.

  • My MacBook pro won't start up: debugger called panic

    My MacBook pro starts to move slow, I notice it's a bit hot do I restart it but when it's trying to start up the apple on the gray screen jumps from the apple to a no entry sign to a folder with a question mark to the apple and all over again very rapidly.
    In the end it writes on the screen a bunch of numbers and debugger called: <panic>
    What I usually did was to let it cool and then it was fine, I chose this option cause I study with it and it's the exam season.
    Today it happened when I woke up so it wasn't hot as usual, nothing helps, can't get it to safe mode with the shift can get to recovery with cmd+r or cmd+alt+p+r
    I'm running osx 10.8.2 and everything is updated.
    Please help!

    Correction:can't get to recovery mode

  • My MacBook pro will not start. There is computer speak all over the screen. It says Debugger called: panic. Anyone help? Thanks

    I was playing COD4 when the computer locked and told me to force a restart.
    When I try to restart it, it takes forever then the force restart message comes up and it freezes again.
    There is computer language on the screen when this happens with the words " Debugger called:panic"
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks
    Brent

    If you're able to boot, launch the Console application by entering the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search, and select the most recent panic log under System Diagnostic Reports. Post the contents -- the text, please, not a screenshot. For privacy’s sake, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header and body of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don't post "shutdownStall" or "hang" reports.
    If you can't boot in the usual way, try a safe boot. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    During startup, you’ll see a progress bar, and then the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all.

  • My MacBook Pro, won't start up / log in... Help!!

    My MacBook Pro, won't start up. Takes ages to turn on, eventually the password screen comes up, I enter my password (which is correct and hasn't changed) press return, and looks like it will load, then goes back to the login screen... Help!!

    Run through this massive list of user capable fixes tailored to isolate and identify where your problem(s) are,  get your machine working again or call a local PC/Mac software repair and data recovery shop, if it's hardware problem, take it to Apple.

  • Macbook Pro won't login after sleep (sleep with low battery -- mac turned off maybe it's called save sleep)

    Macbook Pro won't login after sleep (sleep with low battery --> mac turned off maybe it's called save sleep)
    So if I hit the powerbutton my mbp booted like it is booting from the save sleep (so very fast and the login screen is there in about 10 sec.and there is no apple logo while booting just the desktop screen in "unsharp" ore foggy however...)
    Then when i see the login (if the keyboard backlight turned on) i wand do tipe in my code but it won't work... the trackpad is not working; and when i plug-in a usb mouse the mbp is not powering on the usb-mouse (laser is off)
    Why is that this way?
    Is there n option to wake up the mbp fromm deep/save sleep without haveing issiues after that?

    Sorry for such a long delayed response...
    I was able to get to an apple store this past weekend, and let me tell you... I'm about finished with there great "support".
    Right before I went to the store, I tried to eject a disk. Well the cloth in the SuperDrive (I assume to protect the drive from dust and such) Pulled up with my disk. So I get the Apple store, describe my problem and what happened with the cloth piece. The "Genius" writes up a form and tells me they have to run diagnostic and it will take a couple days... and I will get a call when its done (1-3 days).
    Well on day number 3 I called up the store and they told me it was ready to be picked up? I asked if anything had been fixed and they told me they could not reproduce my "sleep issue", so they couldn't fix that.. but told me the cloth piece in the SuperDrive had been fixed.
    I drive an hour (one way) to the Apple store to find that all they did was PULLED OUT the cloth... they did not replace it! So basically I have a hole for a Super Drive.
    I asked why I was not called to say that my computer was ready to be picked up... didn't get an answer on that one.
    I asked why my SuperDrive was said to be fixed, when nothing was done... they told me that it would have to be sent out to the factory store for that to be fixed (FIRST TIME THEY MENTIONED THAT!) Oh, and that would take 5-7 business days. Well that's not going to happen right now considering I'm a college student that NEEDS a working computer!
    So I go home, angry... start just putting all my important documents back on the computer. And the screen starts blinking!!!! I guess now I have the same thing described in another post on these forms...
    Lets just say that I'm not very happy with Apple right now! If anybody else has success on either the sleep issue or the screen blinking issue, please let me know!
    Thank you!
