10.5.3 update and the black- restart screen results

Yesterday i loaded the new update and on restart got the black screen on my new 24 inch Imac. Called it a day. Today I did a restore from my time machine g-drive and am back to running without the new update but with all files intact. The restore works great.
I do run vmware fusion on this machine and am wondering if I should delete the enhanced app. bundle in library before trying again or am I just barking up the wrong tree?

I have finally got the upgrade loaded but not without a few problems. I did work all the suggestions and still was stuck with the kernal panic. This time it took a while to develope and was not immediate as it was the first time i loaded 10.5.3. I was able to restart and open disk utility and run permission repair. So far the system is working fine. My guess is that Apple has a problem between the update software and some configuration on the imac. Next I will try my laptop. hmmmmm. Thanks for the help it gave me just enough so i could get on the road again.

  • Trying to install and get black restart screen

    I've been trying to install an extra version of Tiger on a back up drive I have. I'm finding it very hard to do however and I was wondering if it might have anything to do with having a TT Pro edrive also on the back up drive? I've tried installing Tiger several times and once I did get it installed but upon trying to start it up I just got the black restart screen again. I've never had any trouble using this drive for random storage and back up before.
    As a last ditch effort I have removed the edrive and I am erasing and zeroing the drive completely. I guess I'll then reformat it and give it a try again and see what happens then, unless someone else has any suggestions.

  • Adobe Story just updated and the Sign-in Screen won't go away, what to do?

    Adobe Story updated when I opened a project. I allowed it to update and unfortunately I get the sign-in screen on 3/4 of the screen and my project on the rest. Ok, I sign-in again and restarted the laptop and still have the sign-in screen.
    Any suggestions to clear this up appreciated.

  • My macbook pro keeps booting up, then after a few seconds, goes back to the sign in page. This happened after I was doing software updates and my computer restarted in the middle of an update. Help! Thanks.

    Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 10 seconds until the iPhone restarts itself. If still problems, Restore iPhone again with iTunes on computer. If you have trouble, put iPhone into Recovery Mode. Open iTunes on computer, connect iPhone to computer with USB cable, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, click Restore button of iTunes.

    Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear and it should reboot.

    Hello Donna,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your iPhone. If you are having issues completing your app updates, you may want to make sure you can otherwise access the iTunes Store/iOS App Store. You may want to try the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article:
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store - Apple Support
    If the iOS version listing in your post profile is correct (iOS 8.0.2), you may also want to make sure that your iPhone is updated to the most recent version of iOS:
    Update the iOS software on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
    Sincerely,
    - Brenden

  • IMac never came back on after installing some updates and trying to restart

    I installed some updates and tried to restart, but it was taking for ever so I turned it off from the main power button but sktill does not come back on, it just stays on the first white screen where you see the apple logo and the circle going around!
    Very frustrating any ideas how should I start it up again! Should I take it to the shop or is there a way to finally turn on?

    Great thank you! It worked after I did that and read the articles you, link, you provided, but I finally did the archive install and have access to previous accounts too except my pictures and videos! It has a small "one way" sign on the folder pictures of the previous user (me) and it says I don't have privileges!
    Any idea how can I recover these type of folders onto a new hard drive before I proceed to a new system update?
    Thank you

  • Cs5 Brush cursor problem, on MacBook pro lion, tried the latest update, and the genious dude had no idea of what to do! Apple any fix?

    Cs5 Brush cursor problem, on MacBook pro, tried the latest update, and the genious dude had no idea of what to do! Apple any fix?

    Additional Info - after working on this problem for 4 hours, I shut my laptop in frustration and took a break.  1 hour later I opened my mac and the cursor had magically returned.  No restart, no power on/off - nothing.  Frustration.  If anyone else has had this happen and has actually fixed the problem let me know. I'm sure it will reoccur.

  • I tried many times to turn it on, it turns and the same white screen appears and the update starts again and shuts down. Please Help me!

    Hello!
    I have a MacBook Air. I have got a software update notification couple of days ago. I've clicked on it today, and it started installing updates.
    But, I have got a notification telling that not all updates were installed successfully, then I have clicked on "Restart" from the notification box. Then my Mac restarted and the white screen with Apple logo and the update progress appeared (like what always happens during updates).
    The problem that while the update progress reached around half the way, my Mac shutdown. I tried many times to turn it on, it turns and the same white screen appears and the update starts again and shuts down.
    Please Help me!

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    You did not state whether you installed the update while on battery (not mains) power. You are warned not to apply certain updates without being connected to a charger & mains power.
    Also remove any attached peripherals.
    Reboot in Repair mode (command-R at start)  and use Disk Tools-Disk Utility-Disk First AId to repair your disk, and as long as you're there repair permissions. Next quit Disk Tools and reinstall the OS. After completing that successfully reboot, log in and do a combo update.
    You must have more than enough (not just enough) empty (free) disk space for the update.

  • HT4623 after the ios 7.0 update my iphone 4s and ipad keep switching in between the home screen and the apple loading screen, can anybody help?

    Can anybody help with the above?
    i.e
    both my iphone 4s and ipad switch in between the home screen and the apple loading screen
    Many thanks

    I would connect each device to a power source, and then reset them by holding the power button and the home button until they turn off.
    If it keeps happening, I would put the devices in recovery mode and restore them with iTunes.
    This article will help with that if needed:

    Hello cor-el, thanks for your reply. I changed my settings for downloads to desktop and it has appeared on there. When I double click I am asked which program I want to open file. I click firefox and another box "opening install" says I have chosen to open the file which is an application and do I want to save it. This is the only real option so I press save file. I get a box saying this is an executable file which may contain viruses - do you want to run. I press ok and the final box showing C drive file name and desktop appears stating application not found.
    This happens the same whenever I try to install.
    To my untrained eye the application is not being recognised as an application and I cannot work out how to get it to do that.
    My plugin is still showing as out of date.
    Is there anything you could suggest. Thanks for your time.
