Crash? Error Icon?

My powerbook has recently been running slow, not shutting down properly, etc. Then today- it wouldn't boot up. It gets to the gray screen with the spinning wheel and wont go past it. So I turned it off and this time when booting it up it went to a blue screen with a flashing "finder" folder icon intermittent with a "?" in it.
What does this mean? How do i fix this? and did I just lose everything?
Any help appreciated! Thanks so much.

First guess is disk directory corruption. Use your install DVD to boot from (power on, hold down 'C' key and shove the disc in) and when the installer comes up, find the Utilities menu and launch Disk Utility. Repair the boot volume, if it shows up. That should do the trick. If Disk Utility can't fix the directory, then you should try Alsoft Disk Warrior, again booting into the DVD and running the utility.
Of course, if you can't boot from the Install disk or Disk Warrior, you can assume you have serious problems, probably with the drive, since you get as far as the Folder/Question Mark icon.

  • Error Icon Propagation

    When I have an error in my Actionscript, I get a nice red X
    next to the the line where the error occurred. Unfortunately,
    unlike in an Eclipse Java project, the file tab does not show an
    error icon, nor does the navigator. Can someone suggest how to
    enable this functionality?
    thanks
    PS. perhaps I am expecting more from flex in Eclipse, but as
    an Eclipse user for Java Programming, are many of the nice features
    not going to be present?

    Check to ensure that your propagation subscriber is correctly set up.

  • Error icon in book - what's this?

    Hi
    On some images in my book I get a small yellow error icon (yellow triangle with an exlamation mark in it).
    There is no hover information or anything else and I can't find any information about this online. Can anyone tell me what this is about and if I will have any printing issues with the given images?
    Thanks
    -Florian

    I believe it is indicating that the amount of zooming an cropping has stretched the image past it's native resolution and more importantly, past the point of quality printing and you may see aliasing in the printed images. I have not ordered a book yet, so cannot comment, but have one with specific images that I forced to have the warning icon to appear, just to see how bad it is.
    Try reducing the amount that you zoomed the image until the icon disappears.

  • Chrome and Opera- Aw Snap/ Crashing Error on Literally Everything!

    I bought the new Mac Pro this past summer and have never been able to get Chrome or Opera (latest versions of each) to work.
    I have performed the steps suggested in the Google Help Center, including renaming the "Default" folder in Application Support/Google, and nothing has worked.
    Interestingly, the exact same problem happens with Opera.  Neither browser is usable at all.  Chrome with the "Aw Snap" for every single page (including About, Help and Extensions) and Opera with the "Page Crashed" error message.
    This has to be a solvable issue.  I've posted repeatedly on the Google help forums and searched extensively, but found nothing yet, save a handful of people with the same issue.
    What do these two programs have in common that could cause them both to completely fail?
    By the way, Safari and Firefox work fine.
    Thanks in advance for your help!
    Mac OS X 10.9.4, Opera 25.0, Chrome 38.0.2125.104

    In case anyone ever has this issue, I never resolved it, not even with multiple contacts with Google's online support.  The issue was instantly resolved when I upgraded the OS to Yosemite.  NO idea what caused it or how to fix it if it happens again, but it does make me want to avoid Chrome unless it's necessary...

  • Error when installing OpsMgr reporting (Attempted to add warning icon to item OMREPORTING but since this was as NONVITALFAILURE case, we added an Error icon instead.)

    Hi
    I have the following scenario:
    Two Management Server, the first
    Management Server has the following functions:
    - Management Server
    - Operations Console
    - Web Console
    My second Management Server has the following
    functions:
    - Management Server
    - Operations Console
    A SQL Server with the
    OperationsManager and OperationsManagerDW
    bases.
    My second Management Server, I installed the
    service report server SQL,
    created the foundation in my remote SQL
    Server (ReportServerOpsMgr and
    ReportServerOpsMgrTempDB). By adding the
    feature of Reporting Server
    it starts the installation process, but
    at a certain point it gives me the following error message
    in the Reporting Server log: Attempted
    to add warning icon to
    OMREPORTING item but since
    this was the NONVITALFAILURE
    case, we added an Error
    icon instead.
    Has anyone been through
    this problem and can help me?
    Thanks a lot!
    Wilsterman Fernandes

    Seems this is either a permissions issue or the it is a restriction configured for running external stored procedures
    I suggest you remove the Reporting portion from the server, then remove the Reporting Service completely. After doing this, reboot the SQL and Management server=>install Reporting again.

    Currently running PrePro CC on a PC.
    i7-3770k cpu @3.5GHz

    All I am doing is replacing video clips on the timeline sequence with same clips due to project showing clips off line in the sequence but not in the project box. I have tried to relink the clips but still get the same gray/blue hash lines in the sequence.  Recently upgraded from CS6 to CC to find myself in this situation.
    Recently reinstalled the Windows 7 OS onto a new SSD which is also where I am installing CC.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi Kevin,
    Thank you for the response to my question. 
    Are the following two items also related to that error message?  I am also noticing that my imported media clips which come in as .MXF files are now duplicates in both the project folder and timeline for an existing sequence.
    My timeline sequence shows multiple clips, some of which have the hashed gray/blue in them, but when I bring over one clip (the first of the multiples), it seems to cover the length of the multiple clips as only one clip.  It is at this point, the program periodically crashes.
    Finally, from what you are telling me, it is not a good idea to convert a previously created 6.0 projects into CC, but to start fresh with a new project?  While I still have my 6.0 project,  I don't see the option in CC to re-install CS6.  Any suggestions on if that is even possible to do under the current license of a group CC?
    Thank you,
    Michael

  • SAP 9 pl 8 Instalado no W8 mais quando logo em umabase da Crash Error e Fecha o SAP

    SAP 9 pl 8 instalado no W8 mais quando se loga em uma das bases apresenta o Crash Error e fecha o Client.

    Olá Paulo,
    Consegui, desinstalei os aplicativos do B1i, da forma como o tutorial de instalação recomenda e instalei novamente e os testes de conexão deu sucesso, funcionou normalmente.
    Com relação ao B1BC ser 32bits, não deu problema até agora, está replicando os dados normalmente. Acontece o seguinte: no SO Win 2003 server 64bits tem compatibilidade de software 32bits,exatamente por isso que ele cria esse diretório Program Files (x86), para direcionar a instalação de programas 32bits. O próprio SAP B1 2007B que é 32bit, segundo o site é compatível com o 64bits. Só não funcionaria se fosse ao contrário: 64 em um SO 32.
    Os docs, sobre o B1BC, estão desatualizados, inclusive esse "Guia do Dimensionamento"
    O problema é que na configuração da estrutura das empresas no Landscape, no campo JCO Path não aceita o caminho que contém (x86), pois tém caractere especial.
    Então instalei o DI API em um diretório criado dentro do C:, fora dos diretórios program files e program files (x86).
    Muito Obrigado!!!

  • I get an error icon ever since i upgraded to Yosemite

    After I upgraded my macbook pro to Yosemite, my Mac started to get cranky and slow. It takes 10-20 seconds to just do the key I press (ie. brightness) So I thought of shutting it down first, because maybe it just needs some rest after the update. So when I shut it down, my screen just went black, but there was still a mouse cursor and my keyboard still has light. I waited for a while but nothing happened. So I just pressed and held the on/off button until it went completely off. After a few minutes, I turned it on. I get the apple icon at first and a line that seems to be like a loading bar (result of the upgrade) then it just turns into what seems like an error icon. I don't know what happened. Anybody that can help me understand this situation and tell me what I can to fix this? Please. Thank you in advance.

    Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
    In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". Uncheck the boxes other than DVD/CD tests, as per the following screenshot:

  • Unable to send crash/error problem report

    Hi There,
    I have recently noticed that when a program I am running either force quits on it's own or I have to manually force quit the program, I am unable to send crash/error problem report to Apple. This has happened for all my programs from Safari and iTunes to recently Microsoft Word. The crashing messed up my internet as I had to give up using Firefox (because it kept crashing and wouldn't send a report) so I downloaded Chrome.
    Yesterday, Microsoft Word had to force quit because I manually quit the program but it never closed. It kept running in the background at 192% under my operating processes. When I force quit Word, it gave me the option to report the problem or ignore it. I chose to send a report but once that Problem Report screen loaded, it would not let me send to Apple, stating "Your submission could not be submitted. Please try again later."
    I have tried numerous times since all to no avail. As I mentioned, this happens on a lot of programs lately and I don't know what to do to fix it. Below are the specs of my Macbook. I can copy the problem details, but is lengthy.
    Any help/feedback is greatly appreciated.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Apple is apparently no longer accepting crash reports for 'Leopard' OS X 10.5.8.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/17544781#17544781
    Typical disk-maintenance activities when crashes occur include using Verify, and Repair Permissions on your hard drive (probably labeled Macintosh HD), using Disk Utility.
    10% to 15% of hard-drive capacity is generally acknowledged as the minimum amount of free space needed for adequate performance.

  • Error icon shown after restarting

    I have upgraded my Mac Mini from Mavericks to Yosemite, the installation ran fine and the system started up into Yosemite without issues. However after restarting my machine, a white screen with an Apple logo appears with a progress bar below it, the progress bar will go up to about 35% and then show an error icon.
    How can I fix this? Unfortunately I did not make a backup of the OS nor do I use Time Machine.
    What are my options? Is there a way I can read through the logs to see what is failing to possibly try and fix it?

    Try actually opening message and clicking reply icon to respond rather than right clicking on message preview.  I have had same bug (which Apple should fix all the same), but have found that if you open the message as its own discreet window, then the "replied to" icon will appear.  Hope this is helpful

  • ERROR Icon - What Is It?

    My iPod suddenly won't connect to iTunes, AND iTunes won't recognize it either. This is the ERROR Icon I've got on my 60GB Photo/Color iPod: there's an iPod, a triangle with an exclamation point in it, and underneath is printed "www.apple.com/support/ipod".
    I've tried resetting my iPod and after the Apple Logo disappears I get the above every time . . . WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY iPOD??

    Hi, how do I change the attribute error icon to another gif?
    Or even better, is there a hook to not display this attribute error icon at all and yet continue to show the attribute error message below the attribute input field.

    Use skinning to modify the error-icon.
    Add the following the custom CSS file:
    af|message::error-icon {
    content: url("/images/Error.png");
    width: 16px;
    height: 16px;
    af|messages::error-icon {

  • Every time that I try to print a page from the internet, my Mac crashes and I get a "Crash Reporter" icon.  Any suggestions?

    Every time that I try to print a page from the internet, My Mac (Maverick 10.9.4) crashes and I see a "Crash Reporter" icon.  Any suggestions?

    Launch the Console 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 Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if iTunes crashed, you would enter "iTunes" (without the quotes.)
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    ☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    ☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.
