Hello, what OSX version?
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
If 10.7.0 or later...
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
If that doesn't help Reinstall the OS.

    I have Windows 8.1, and when I right click on the Windows flag (bottom left), the menu gives me a "Search" option. When I enter "%temp%", it goes to " "my username"/ appdata/temp" which is a list of file 1718 file folders. Many are empty but I did a small sample. Is that the right place to delete?    I tried Windows- Disk Clean, but that did not help.

  • How do I get my mac screen back to normal from negative?

    I turned my back for a second and the next thing I see is my 19 month old with mouse in hand and my screen is in negative display. How do I get it back to normal?

    The keyboard command to make the switch is Command-Option-Control-8
    You can disable that keyboard command by going to System Preferences > Keyboard, click the Keyboard Shortcuts button near the top. Select Universal Access in the pane on the left, then uncheck the item "Reverse balck and white" in the pane on the right.

  • I have 2 iMacs with Maverick. One shows DVD's requiring Adobe Flash fine the other plays for a while then I get parts of the DVD presentation that freezes cursor movement but the video

    I have two iMacs both with Maverick. When working with Training DVD's requiring Adobe Flash there is no trouble with one iMac but the other will have problems. The DVD will run fine and then there will be a break (5-10 seconds) in the audio but not the video. When the audio comes back on the presentors movement of the curson will be frozen. Have I disabled something on the one computers but not the other to cause this problem?

  • Fatal Error Message Now when trying to use Boot Camp

    I have a new issue that just cropped up. I have been using Boot Camp for some time when I just need to be concentrating on the XP Pro side of the system. However, I typically use Parallels and get in just fine. Yesterday, I attempted to use Boot Camp and go into the PC Side...the WIndows XP Pro emblem comes up duing the boot, and then I get a blue screen with the following message in white text...
    STOP: c000021a {Fatal System Error}
    The Session Manager Initialization system process terminated unexpectedly with a status of 0xc000003a (0x00000000 0x00000000)
    The system has been shut down.
    Now, I have not tried to boot up in this since I installed Leopard. So my guess is that could be my problem. Any thoughts? Please let me konw...I need help. Thanks.

    I think what Hatter was getting at is OS X gets really cranky when disk space is low, that is, below 10%. Try freeing some space on your drive.
    Similarly, windows also gets cranky if it doesn't have enough VM space.
    In both cases, you will see at minimum, slowdowns, and at worst, crashes.
    How much ram is in your system, and how much have you allocated to windows?
    windows does not run efficiently with less than 1gb.
    The windows boot CD is an installer.
    You should not get a C:\prompt when booting from the CD unless you select the option have entered the System Recovery Console.
    The recovery console is good for some things, but you can hose the system even more if you are unsure of what you're doing there.
    The repair option will replace some files on your HD - problem there is if you have installed security updates (hotfixes, patches, whatever) the file versions on the HD and the file version on the CD won't match, the repair process will complain, disallow the replacement, or outright fail.
    The stop error you received is a big clue. Go to support.microsoft.com and search for that stop error. You'll get lots of hits, and it'll be tedious, but you'll get there.
    Also, if you can get back into windows, go to control panels, administrative tools, event viewer. There will be 3-4 logs listed.
    Search the system log for the date/time the stop error occurred. 2x click that entry. There will be more info there that will be useful on the ms support site.
    If you cant find it, resort by the event type column and look for sysdump. That'll be log entry for the bluescreen error.

  • I get error message 42032 when trying to connect an iPhone to iTunes. Any ideas how to fix it?

    I get error message 42032 when trying to connect an iPhone to iTunes. Any ideas how to fix it?

    Did you already try these suggestions?
    Check USB connections
    Related errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response,” and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
    If you checked your connections and are still seeing the error message, check for hardware issues.

  • Ihone 4s lost all contacts. I tried to restore from backup but the error message now says there is not enough room. I have deleted all the apps without making any more room on iphone. Why did contact disappear and how do I get them back?

    In the simplest sense, archiving a file means making a copy that you never change and never discard. You already know how to do that.
    iPhoto has built-in archival features, in the sense that it saves all versions of an image that you've modified. As long as you have adequate backups, you don't necessarily have any reason to archive an iPhoto library. If you want to delete images from the working library but still have access to them in case you change your mind, then you do need to archive those images. I don't have a specific suggestion as to how you should do that. You might post a question in the iPhoto forum.

  • How can i get my mac book pro to recognize a JVC camcorder?

    How can I get my mac book pro to recognize a JVC camcorder using a Sony CAMERA USB cord??

    Gotta say thank you — again.  Sorry the posts were spread out over more than one location.    I'll check and see if Third Party Software is considered a "peripheral", maybe that would have been a better single thread choice?
    Definitely news we can use and the reference link is appreciated.
    OT ~ We keep becoming more and more aware of how easy it is to lose one's bearings when it comes to keeping up with info tech.  My husband and I are both official members of the geezer set and have been out of the work force for some years.  You really do pick up so much just by being in the environment where people are using things to get work done.  A couple of old MP3 players, PPC G5, and a vintage Inspiron 3800 that someone didn't want any more is about it.  No cell phone, no iPod, no iPad, no home wireless network, no streaming media.  Fixed income.  So we do with what we can as long as we can.  If we could get by without that Intel processor, we'd probably make do with what we've got.  On the other hand, we've really wanted a notebook for a very long time and have to admit that needing to upgrade to accomodate my husband's project is pretty much just the "reason" we need.  I really mean it when I say that we are beyond appreciative that users take the time to share info and patiently educate those of us who fall into the "slow tech" category.

    At present I have no power to the Gen 7, so need to get some power to it I think.  I pressed the buttons as you suggested, but nothing is showing up at this point.  Thank you for your response as the more I can rule out before  I take it back the better I think.
