After installing Mavericks, my laptop no longer boots.
After installing Mavericks, my laptop no longer boots. How can I restore it using the internet, or get it to start up again?
Thanks in Advance.
If a SMC reset does not restore life, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar.

My MacBook is mid 2010 or 2011 and was running 10.6.8. After installing mavericks my computer tries to boot, says it has to restart and that circle goes on and on. Disk utilities says everything is running okay and reinstalling mavericks twice didn't help. I was told my hard drive needs to be zeroed. How is that different from erasing and is it necessary as opposed to erasing? After I back up on an external drive (I know I should have done that before hehe) and erase or zero, what will happen to my operating system? Will I have the ability to reinstall mavericks or do I need to out a copy of it on the external hard drive? I'm wondering this because I don't know if my computer will be running snow leopard or anything at all after I erase or zero since I'm not entirely sure what those terms entail. Thanks for any help!
Ooops.
I upgraded my 10.6.8 system to 10.7.5. ..No problem, but my practice is to connect an ESATA dock to my macpro. install to the drive in the doc, use migration assistant to migrate my data and apps. use the os in the doc for 2 weeks, if no issue then I delete the OS partiton in my Internal System Drive, do a carbon copy clone to the internal drive.
I just did the similar to upgrade to mavericks. I installed to a new hardrive in my docking station. (black widow esata dock). I noticed 10.9.1 is slow stayed with 10.7.5 as my operating system. now and then I would boot 10.9.1 fire up the console utility and fix the issues that made it slow....
Now I am at the "burn in stage" mavericks is now running fast and stable. I'll use all my apps and if it does not break with the applications I run I will eventaully cc my 10.7.5 OS drive to the docking station, file the drive away.. and take my 10.9.1 drive in the doc and cc it to my internal system drive.
I always wipe out a partion when installing a new OS. Zeroing out is a bit more thorough, you will know if your drive is junk... but it's overkill for me.
I figured repartion is ok.
I'm 2 weeks away from doing a carbon copy clone from my 10.9.1 os drive in my dock to my internal drive.
by the way.. I am running Mavericks on a 8 core macpro 2,1. I have a modified bootloader that has an arbitration layer EFI32 to/from EFI64 emulated.
pretty cool.
And from new system standards, the old macpro stacks up pretty well: -
After installing Mavericks I can no longer save a new word document or pdf by typing the name of the destination folder in the Finder window. The save button greys out. Solutions anyone?
Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folders. In OS X 10.9 there are two sandboxes, while in 10.8 there is only one. If you're running a version older than 10.8, this comment isn't applicable.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder—not just its contents—to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window.
This action will delete any custom Mail stationery that you have created. If you want to preserve it, ask for instructions.
If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Repeat with this line:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return. -
After installing Maverick on my 2011 MacBookPro I can no longer highlight multiple emails in the same manner. To clean out my Inbox I highlighted a message, held my mouse down & dragged my cursor down through all the messages I wanted to delete (or move to another mailbox, or other functions) highlighting as many messages as I wanted. I then clicked "delete" & they went to trash. Such a great way to clean out a lot of messages at once. Can I and/or how do I do this again? Or is this something Maverick has eliminated? I also hate that "Notes" is no longer on the Mail page, but this is not as important. Help!!
Put differenltly, if I can drag select multiple items and objects on my desktop, which I can, using my Kensington Track Ball (which has an enabled updated software driver in place, so I don't think there's a problem there), why can't I click-drag-multipleselect emails in mail like I have *always* been able to? Really, what is the problem here? Why is that no longer possibler? I'm not a coder, but I can't believe this isn't fixable. Here, Apple should be ashamed of itself, regardless of the fact that there's an easy work around. When I have to alter the way I have been doing something for years and have to waste time learning something new and complaining about it -- like right now! -- and there's no good technical reason, and I bet there isn't, then Apple has simply failed.

Can anyone help me or do I have to go back to Mountain Lion? I also can no longer connect to my external hard drive.
Installing the new os may have tricked one of the three devices involved. If it used to work, it will again.
Reboot the printer. Reboot the router. On the pad, general, reset, reset network connections.
Make sure all the devices are on the same wifi network. Talk nice to it. -
My Image Class MF4380dn Cannon Multifunction Copier driver no longer works after installing Mavericks. I have checked with Cannon and they do not list my partricular machine among their driver updates. Is there another place to download a driver suitable for Mavericks?
Your MF4380dn is supported by the latest UFR2 v10.4.0 driver that supports 10.9. Here is a link from the Canon Australia web site,
http://support-au.canon.com.au/contents/AU/EN/0100491502.html
Before installing this driver, please remove the MF4380 from Printers & Scanners (unless you have already performed the reset that Carolyn mentions which will remove it for you). Then run the v10.4.0 installer and when it has completed, open Printers & Scanners and add the MF4380. -
Creating a Mavericks USB boot drive after the horse has bolted. Can I create a bootable USB drive from my iMac after installing Mavericks without saving the Install OS X Mavericks.app file? Do I need to re- download the whole 5.29 Gb from the App Store again? My problem is my 4Gb/month allowance on a 12 month contract. I cannot purchase a data block from my ISP and although my speed is theoretically slowed to 64k after reaching my 4Gb, it actually ceases to download in reality.
HI tasclix, it depends what you mean by an OS X boot drive.
If you want a recovery disk from which you can reinstall (by re-downloading) or recover from a time machine backup, then nbar is correct.
If, however, you want to boot and run the OS X installer from the USB drive (so that you don't need to download again), then you will need a copy of "Install OS X Mavericks.app"; see this article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5856
Before downloading again, search your system to see if the installer is still there - it's usually in the /Applications folder unless it has been deleted, but check your whole system for it anyway, you never know, you might still have it somewhere.

After installing Mavericks, why can I no longer delete junk mail on my iMAC Mail program?
After installing Mavericks, why can I no longer delete junk mail on my iMAC Mail program? Also, mail is sometimes slow to load in mornings on my iMac after it has appeared on my iPhone. I temporarily solved that by shutting down and reopening mail two or three times.
I have the same problem on my iMac. Most of what it puts in the "junk folder" is junk. I delete all of the messages in the folder and they're back the next time I check it. I have messages in that folder that have were received 2 months ago! I'm thinking of unchecking "junk folder" in preferences. Very frustrating.

All help menus no longer work after installing Mavericks
After installing Mavericks on my iMac all help menus no longer work. You still get the drop down box which contains the search window and other choices, but if you try clicking on them the screen just flashes or you might get a box that says " safari help is not available". It does this system wide, doesn't matter what application your in. My internet works fine but for some reason in Mavericks the help menus are not accessing this information. Anyone else have this problem? Or an answer?
Thank you!Finally, a quick restart of the mac and all help menus are working again.

After installing mavericks on my macbook pro my laptop keeps rebooting
How can I find out what might be happening to cause this behaviour?
Is anyone else seeing this odd behaviour?
I didn't have a booting issue before installing Mavericks, since installing I have had at least 4 random reboots. After logging in, I get a message that the system booted unexpectedly and I uploaded the info to Apple. One time it showed the reboot occured during the wakup from sleep.
As a side question, how can I tell the system to NOT relaunch all applications that where running before.
Mike P.Hi Clinton (and original poster/responders)
I have been having the same problem, with random reboots after installing Mavericks. Sometimes, it goes into a loop of restarting for a while before successfully launching (even rebooting when I click on my user id to log in to OS) . Thanks, and,
Here are the results from using EtreCheck: (P.S.: I use an external usb harddrive for TimeMachine, and it hasn't been connected during these restarts)

IMac 24" doesn't start after installing Mavericks.
After installing Mavericks (10.9.2) the machine started having hiccups... rebooting at random times on it's own. After upgrading to 10.9.3, it only got worse. Reboots were more frequent (as little as 1 minute between each reboot). Then it took the final step and went into a state where it remains with black screen, the startup jingle may begin, but is killed within half a second or less... goes into a reboot loop. The DVD sounds, then it tries to reboot again, DVD sounds... sometimes the jingle starts... but is cut off by a reboot. Trying to get ANYTHING done with different key press combinations (option+command+R+P, D, T, Command, Option... pretty much every single combination one can find online for accessing safe boot or recovery or whatever... does not work. The machine seems to have been killed by Mavericks. I have come across a LOT of posts by other people who have experienced the same thing (rebooting after installing Mavericks) going back to October last year, and a few have experienced the same dead computer issue as I am having... all the while there is no fix or explanation from APPLE regarding this issue. I have even opened the machine up and checked all cable connections, tested the HDD on another computer (was ok), cleaned the memory module connectors etc. Before the total crash I had installed a temperature monitoring program with ventilator control, due to the DVD ventilator running at high RPM after installing Maverics. All the temp sensors were reporting modest temps (ranging from 39 - 79 Celsius (only the power supply was above 50 Celsius).
The computer is as useful as a brick by this point. Since it went dead, it has successfully started up 3 times (out of 500+ attempts), but rebooted within a couple of minutes, into it's cycle of dead reboots.
One way of getting it to boot and prepare for re-installation, is to keep the power button pressed until it sounds 3 times long, 3 times short and 3 times long beeps... it would only start making the first beep... then it rebooted in to death again.
Could it be that Mavericks is destroying the firmware, or even killing the hardware? I also have Mavericks on MBA and MBP, where the MBA has no problems, while the MBP freezes up every 2 days or so... requiring a forced reboot.
Anyone with a usable advice on what to do in order to get the machine working again? How many years does it normally take APPLE support staff to fix serious issues like this one? It's already been over 7 months since the first people began experiencing these issues with Mavericks, but nothing has been done about it on APPLE's end ... as far as I can tell.
Looking forward to some solutions.Just wanted to write the conclusion of this issue here, and make things as clear as possible.
I took the iMac to a support center, and they confirmed that several components on the power supply board were fried and other parts had been overheated. It took a few weeks for them to get the needed parts (much cheaper than replacing the entire unit). I brought the iMac back home and started it up, and it did work... but it was getting very hot very quickly. I was thinking that maybe I should install Mountain Lion on it, and get away from Mavericks... just in case.... the computer had been turned on for around 1 hour at that point, and then it rebooted.... and stayed dead for 10 minutes or so... until it could start up again. Was on for a few minutes... then dead again.
Clearly the cause of the problem was still present, and fixing the symptom did not prove to be a lasting solution.
The machine would not stay turned on long enough (when it DID turn on) for even formatting the disk, so I removed the SDD from it, formatted it with my MBA (connected through USB), and inserted it in the iMac again. Starting it up resulted in a few minutes being turned on, overheating and crashing. Having downloaded ML and created a USB installer for it, it was now a case of trying one's patience ... hoping for the machine to stay turned on long enough to make it all the way through the installation process.... it managed to do the first part of the installation after several hours of crashing and overheating.... and it came to a point where I simply turned it off and gave up... thinking that the problem simply was physical in nature, and not caused by Mavericks as I had assumed from the start. Next day I had renewed energy, turned the puter on and it behaved in the same way... turning off, then starting by itself trying to get through the installation.... it would fail again and again... I left the house, with it turned on, hoping that it would at least manage to finish at some point in time... so that I could write off my "BAD Mavericks" suspicion. When I returned several hours later, the installation was complete and the machine was purring quietly and the back of the computer was NOT hot like a steam iron.
Now it has been working for several days without any problems at all.
The final conclusion is this:
Mavericks IS at fault, and will physically DESTROY computers that are "somehow" not compatible with it. I would have thought that Apple had enough capable engineers to prevent the operating system to mess up the hardware in this way, but clearly I was wrong on that account. I can only WARN other people to even attempt installing Mavericks on puters of this type:
Hardware Overview:
Model Name: iMac
Model Identifier: iMac7,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz
Number of Processors: 1
Total Number of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 4 MB
Memory: 4 GB
Bus Speed: 800 MHz
Boot ROM Version: IM71.007A.B03
SMC Version (system): 1.21f4
Serial Number (system): W8*******X89
Hardware UUID: 00000000-0000-1000-8000-001B639688F7
Anyone claiming that Mavericks is not at fault, is plain and simple WRONG, in DENIAL or LYING. There is absolutely NO doubt in my mind any longer, that the problem was indeed Mavericks getting installed on the machine and messing with the hardware on a level where it should never happen. If someone working at Apple would like to purchase/replace my iMac in order to test it and figure out that this is a REAL problem, they are welcome to do so. I think it is more than guaranteed that the damage caused by this Mavericks nightmare installation will never be recovered, nor will the time and work lost ever be compensated, but I would actually like Apple to acknowledge their responsibility and failure to address this issue in a professional and responsible way.
IF Mavericks was NOT at fault, then someone should explain the logic behind the machine physically burning components shortly after the installation of Mavericks, and even when the SDD had been wiped clean with no OS, it was still overheating and shutting off, until it could finally have ML installed... and at that point it was cured and has worked flawlessly ever since. Not a single hiccup, no over heating, no problems.
My offer to sell/replace the iMac stands if Apple is really interested in looking at this SERIOUS issue with Mavericks. This is NOT a minor issue they should expect simply goes away, or will be ignored by people who experience their machines BURNING to pieces.
On my MBA and MBP Mavericks is not causing any problems, so it is not "all bad", but for the iMac it meant total annihilation.
Anyone who has installed Mavericks on their iMac of similar age as mine, having rebooting and overheating problems: REMOVE the Mavericks installation ASAP and get ML on it before it goes up in flames!
Other Mac's have been reported having the rebooting/overheating problems as well, although I have not noted down which builds those were. The problem is REAL and COSTLY for those who experience it.... both time-wise and in terms of lost time/work.
Hopefully this will help others from getting the same terrible experience as I got, and save some computers from burning up.

After installing maverick my computer is very slow
after installing maverick my computer is very slow, what can I do?
First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
Step 1
This diagnostic procedure will query the log for messages that may indicate a system issue. It changes nothing, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'GPU |hfs: Ru|I/O e|find tok|n Cause: -|NVDA\(|timed? ?o' | tail | open -ef
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key.
The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Normally the command will produce no output, and the window will be empty. If the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window) has anything in it, stop here and post it — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the TextEdit window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
Step 2
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Reset the System Management Controller.
Run Software Update. If there's a firmware update, install it.
If you're booting from an aftermarket SSD, see whether there's a firmware update for it.
If you have a portable computer, check the cycle count of the battery. It may be due for replacement.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane. See whether there's any change.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
If you have a MacBook Pro with dual graphics, disable automatic graphics switching in the Energy Saverpreference pane for better performance at the cost of shorter battery life.
Step 3
When you notice the problem, launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
Select All Processes from the View menu or the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for User, System, and Idle at the bottom of the window.
Select the Memory tab. What value is shown in the bottom part of the window for Swap used?
Next, select the Disk tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in andWrites out.)
Step 4
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long. -
After installing Mavericks I started to receive my email over and over again.
(Mail on Mac) I am experiencing a disturbing problem I can't find a previous mention of. Hopefully there's someone who has already been able to solve this.
My email is, on my wish, (Webmail UPC) not removed from my providers server after download, this for security reasons. I suppose after installing Mavericks the following event repeats itself again and again. What happens is that the email messages received are first seen in their correct alias(account) under/in the Incoming box. Next the same messages (after a period of time or/and after one or more times restarting Mail, this is unclear) are received again within an alias of that account, however the re-received message can be delivered in another alias(account) for example, an emailaccounts given alias, lets say, alias 1a receives a message again... while the original message was addressed to that emailaccounts alias 1b or 1c etc. But alias 1a also gets the message sooner or later. Thus I keep receiving the same messages over and over again in time. Does anyone recognize this problem and even better is there a solution. Thanks.Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
Or...
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts (Users & Groups in later OSX versions)>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...
