My imac hangs up after upgrading to new os

After upgrading to new OS my imac hangs up where it never has done this before. My apple care has long sinse expired and I am really bummed. It was clearly related to the new OS. Any suggestions for relief?

If 10.7.0 or later...
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partitirion & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk.

  • Iphone 5s Hangs randomly after upgrading to IOS 8

    I am bit worried about IOS upgrade. I am using Iphone 5s since March 2014. Till date it was working fine. But when I upgraded my Iphone from IOS 7.1.2 to IOS 8 problem starts arriving.
    Symptoms :      1. The phone hangs randomly after upgrade.
                            2. After selecting any application , it disappear suddenly. I have to start the application again. This mostly happen when I select Setting icon
    This is very much embarrassing that I am using one of the best phone in the world and it hangs automatically when I need it most.
    The only resolution for hang phone is to reboot.
    I upgraded to latest IOS 8.0.2 but still no improvement. I am expecting Apple team to look into this issue and resolve it. Waiting for your response.

    I have 5 Iphone 5's and Ipad Air. All upgraded to ios8. Everyone locks! it is so locked you have to hold home button and power button serial times. It reboots and just shows apple. When you use Safari, or type a text message, they just get behind then lock up with half a screen or half the icons.
    All my kids hate their devices now. I know Apple will fix. It is scary as i have never seen iPhones actually lock up and un-usable. this should have been caught in Beta. Perhaps Apple should get some "Real" outside normal users to beta. The ones they are using are not catching this stuff. Code is complicated, Apple has the best minds, Just keep holding the Home button and power button. Eventually it will reboot. Then close all the open apps. and don't tilt the phone sideways.
    Also close all un-used webpages left open in safari. this seems to fix.
    As for the Bug about lagging while texting and half screen lock ups. that needs to be fixed ASAP.
    I know from building things, there is always a few hiccups. Yelling won't do anything, give Apple a chance to fix it. I love Apple, and will continue to purchase the items. The world economy is changing, suppliers are going green, thus you get cheap bendable parts too. Apple will find the middle ground and work the problem. Please all post they read these blogs.
    If Apple deletes your posts and denies these problems then email Tim Cook. He does listen. Give it a week then it will all be sorted out. If apple sold iPhone 6 pluses that bend, then i am sure they will offer a replacement. Apple does care, May seem arrogant but they always come through at the end.
    Hang in there, i always rush and put the update on the minute it comes out, over and over, then complain about the bugs. Better to wait a month. i am addicted to new and better and just click upgrade. My fault too. I know better after 37 years with apple.
    Kind Regards,
    B

  • After upgrading the new operating system, it seems some useful features no longer work such as when typing a message the text anticipates the next word and when trying to delete individual messages from a contact, you can no longer tap and hold to select

    After upgrading the new operating system on my Droid Razr M it seems some useful features no longer work such as when typing a message the text anticipates the next word and when trying to delete individual messages from a contact, you can no longer tap and hold to select multiple message you have to delete them individually or the entire thread. Is there a way to get these back?

    Well, that's kind of embarrassing. And I honestly thought I paid attention to that... It works perfectly now, thank you so much!
    As expected, cdm-git also works fine since DMs only work in the root mode as of now.
    Just for the record, both type commands output "/usr/bin/startx" and pacman -Q gives "systemd 215-4".

  • After "upgrade" to new firefox, bookmarks didn't transfer. Help tells how to import from another browser but not old firefox. Also my anti virus (latest update) apparently not compatible with 4.0 Can I restore my old version

    Question
    After "upgrading" to new firefox none of my bookmarks are in new bookmarks help topics tell me how to import from another browser but not from previous version of firefox. Another problem is my anti virus ( most up to date) is apparently not compatible with 4.0 liked the old firefox would never have "upgraded" had I known my anti virus wouldn't work. Can I get old version back

    Check with Kaspersky as to what versions of Firefox their programs are compatible with. It is up to Kaspersky to keep their stuff up to date as Mozilla releases new versions of Firefox. And if they are unwilling or incapable of doing it, they should inform their customers of such and maybe refund their customers instead of stringing them along.

  • Ipad hangs frequently after upgrade to os 4

    ipad hangs frequently after upgrade to os 4. any ideas?

    For Safari try clearing its cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
    For Safari and other apps try closing all 'open'/recently used apps completely and then see if they work ok after you re-open them : from the home screen (i.e. not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Any videos slow/stuck after upgrading to new Flash 11.8.800.94

    After upgrading to the new flash 11.8.800.94 on Firefox 23, the videos are stuck. I have uninstalled and reinstalled any/all versions of Adobe Flash, but still the same issue. I went back to Flash 10.3 version For Windows and it works fine. But I am little skeptical in using it as it does not have protection for the swf security issues. Till then I plan to revert back to Chrome, as it as well as IE works fine with Flash 11.8 version. Pls let me know if you have any solution.

    I also have the same issue, which started last week. I am running FireFox 23 on Windows 7. Flash 11.8x (and also 11.7x) causes Firefox to hang when opening a web page that has flash content on it. This issue is not with the flash video content playing as the web site is hangs before I even have a chance to launch the flash video. I have to start task manager in Windows 7 to kill the firefox process to get control of the browser back. I also went back to Flash 10.3 and the web sites are fine opening, no issues. Please let me know if you have any questions.

  • Problems After Upgrading to New IOS (12.2.7a) With Passwords

    Essentially, the title tells it all. After upgrading from 12.0.8 to 12.2.7a, our passwords wouldn't work. Is this because of a different encryption algorithm? We are using the service password-encryption command, and would like to keep it on during our installations.

    We use TACACS, then local, but only after a site is in production.....but in this case, as this was a new turnup, we didn't apply TACACS yet.

  • Why is my iMac so slow after upgrade to ML?

    Hi,
    after upgrade of my iMac to Mountain Lion the performance ist very bad. I need minutes to open mails or change websites or prgramms?
    Any idea to solve the problem?
    Thanks in advance
    Chris

    I have a 1TB internal HD in my iMac and a 2 TB external drive I use for Time Machine backups. So as you can imagine, indexing took a pretty long time. Plus I kept interrupting the index. After a few days however, my Mac was fine. My iMac is from mid 2010.

  • Battery time wrong after upgrading to new conky

    I use conky and have a section which tells me if the battery is active and if so what's the percentage and how long do i have left until the battery dies.   It was working fine, with the right time estimation until i upgraded to the new conky version a few days ago and now the time estimation for the battery is all wrong.  Now when my battery is like 90 percent full it tells me that there is only around 30 minutes left, but of course the battery will last for much longer and checking powertop estimate I still have around 4 hours left.  Anyone having this problem after upgrading to the newer conky?
    Vincent

    I have a similar problem. There are a number of conky scripts that I use, and they can all be found at http://vredfreak.atspace.com/projects.html , for instance the gmail check, and the weather, and new arch updates.  But after the last update it does not display the whole information, but only a part. So in the e-mail section it only lists "two and a half" and the archlinux new packages section only lists about 6. I have no idea how to fix this.

  • Hotsync incomplete after Upgrading to New Sprint 1.07 firmware.

    I just upgraded my Sprint Centro to the newer software Centro- 1.07 SPNT.
    While upgrading, I also upgraded HotSync Manager to 7.0.2 and to the newer Palm Desktop by Access v6.2.2
    The Hotsync after installing the new firmware, was incomplete. I use Datebk6 and that hung up the Hotsync and never installed. 
    Also, all my IM's are missing as are my favorites for the Web application and my telephone favorites buttons.
    Has anyone else had this happen? and how can I retrieve the missing data.
    Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

    What was the previous version of Palm desktop you were using?
    You could try the following to see if you can recover the data. Find the userfolder in c-program files-palm. Copy that folder to the PC desktop, "clean" uninstall the current version of Palm desktop, re-install the previous version of Palm desktop and then copy and paste the username folder into the palm folder in program files. This may work. When you upgraded to Palm desktop 6.2, it changed the location of the data files to my documents-palm OS desktop. The files from the older version of Palm desktop are stored in program files-palm on the c drive. Those files may be intact and recoverable. Palm desktop 6.2 makes a copy of that data and creates the new location in my documents.
    For reference purposes, click on the following link for the support page for your device on the kb.palm.com webpage.

  • Time Machine in loop after upgrade to new mac

    Hello everyone,
    I just bought a new MacBook to substitute my old iMac.
    With this upgrade I also went from OS X 10.5.8 (iMac) to 10.6.4 (new MacBook).
    On installation I chose for the Migration Assistant to copy my data from the latest TM Backup.
    Everything went fine.
    Then TM asked if I wanted to continue to use my old backups on the new MacBook (or similar).
    And I accepted. Then the first backup started ...
    *... and now TM seems to be stuck in an infinite Loop. =(*
    It goes like this:
    1) Mounting Time Capsule/Sparsebundle
    2) "Verifying XXX.XXX Objects ..."
    3) "Preparing XXX.XXX Objects ..."
    4) "Deleting old backups"
    4) Cleaning up
    5) Disk Image/Sparsebundle ejected
    ... and then it immediately restarts that same procedure.
    Over and over again. Now for over 14 hours straight.
    (I have already stopped the backup a few times, as I thought a restart of my Mac would fix anything.
    Didn't help ... so now I just left it running for a night + half a day).
    Also weird:
    • The disk image is still called "Backup of iMac Eddy"
    • And when viewed in the Finder/on the Time Capsule it's named "iMac Eddy.sparsebundle"
    • There's no MAC address in that sparsebundle name ... (?)
    • I changed my Mac's name in the System Prefs/Sharing ... with no change at all to time TM image ...
    Anybody know a solution or can give me a heads up?
    Thanks in advance

    Yes, that will happen when Time Machine has to do a very large backup (such as, of a new Mac).
    Because of the way Time Machine stores the backups, it's impossible to tell how much space will be gained by deleting a single backup without actually deleting it. So it deletes the oldest one, "compacts" the sparse bundle to recover the space, then checks again. That will continue until there's enough space, or only one backup is left (then it will fail.)
    So, subtract the other sparse bundle and shared data from the TC's capacity. If the result isn't at least 2 1/2 times the size of the data on your system, you're going to have to delete the sparse bundle, so Time Machine can start over. (Since TM won't delete the last backup, it needs room for it, plus a new one, plus 20% workspace.)
    If there is enough room, you can speed up the process a bit, by manually deleting a bunch of old backups, then compacting the sparse bundle, per #12 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).
    There is another option.
    Connect a USB drive, partitioned so there's separate space for those shared files, so Time Machine can't use up all the empty space, as it will on the TC's disk). Let Time Machine start fresh backing-up the new Mac to the USB drive, and leave the existing backups on the TC's internal HD until you're sure you don't need them, then delete them. You can always browse (and restore from) them, via the +*Browse ...+* option. See #17 in the FAQ.

  • N73ME Themes Problem after upgrading to new firmwa...

    Hi All,
    I bought an N73 Music Edition when it was in 3.07 firmware version. Now I have upgraded it using NSU to 4.07.
    Currently I am facing a problem when trying to switch to some of the themes I installed before upgrade. These themes are not displayed in the Apps Manager.
    When I select Preview or Apply for these themes, the phone hangs and only the battery removal can help me to get rid of that state.
    Is there any way to remove such themes from my themes list?
    (I didn't restore my SD card items after upgrade. I just reinstalled the programs again.)
    Thanks.

    Thanks dude. Its solved...!!
    Actually the theme name was not visible. I tried trial and error method...
    There are 4 files in the folders of working themes.
    When I deleted one folder with only 3 files, the problem is solved.
    The .ini file and the folder are named with some number-alphabet name, may be hex. And 3 files with just "themepackage" as the file name.
    I deleted one folder with only .mdm and .skn files and the .ini file. The other file missed some how during the backup restore after last software upgrade...
    Also some empty folders were there. I deleted them also with a backup in my lappy. But no errors were found after that...
    Thanks a lot...
