Delay before startup chime?

I noticed yesterday that the time between pressing the startup button and hearing the chime and thus the boot process starting took about 5-10 seconds.
But just now I turned it on, and when i hit the power button it was almost instant from when i hit the button.
Does anyone else notice that sometimes there is a varying delay from when you hit the power button to when the chime is heard (and screen lights up)?

i dont think its a major issue once you here that noise your mac has passed its 1st test on start up if you think that you might have a problem you can run the apple hardware tests.
1 Insert you installtion CD1
2 Restart computer
3 Upon restart hold the 'C' key till the Loading icon appers
4 Choose the extened scan
This will let you know it you have and problem with RAM, logic board, memory ect. This will not check extranal devices or

  • Delay before startup chime: bad sign?

    Recently I (sometimes) have an unexpected delay between pressing the power button of my macbook and the startup chime (quite a few seconds). Scary. Then everything works fine.
    Is there something that I should worry about?

    I don't really think it's an issue.

  • Long pause before startup

    Hello,
    Sometimes my intel mac mini pause longer than usual before startup chime is heard. I ran hardware diagnostics (extended one) and no problem was reported. Could it be a hard drive related issue?
    Thanks inadvance.

    I have a similar thing to this, it doesn’t happen very often, but I’m always a little bit worried it’ll get worse, or it’s a symptom of something else,
    basically every now and then I get that 5second pause before the chime, I haven’t run any diagnostics yet (all my disks are up north at the moment, I’m going to get them back soon, might see if they show anything)

  • Delay between pushing power button and startup chime

    When I push the power button to turn on my Macbook, I have to wait a longer time for the startup chime to chime. Anybody know of a reason/solution?

    Longer than what? I have to wait about 2.5 seconds with mine.

  • IMac intel: 5 minutes of blue screen before startup! Help!

    Hi-
    I have a Core Duo 17" iMac. I've erased the hard drive and installed a clean, new copy of 10.5. It takes the computer 5 minutes of blue screen before starting. There are no peripherals attached, no other software than the Apple system software installed. I erased the hard drive and installed 10.6, and had the same problem. Reset the SMC, zapped the PRAM. Replaced the memory chips. Replaced the hard drive. Nothing helps.
    The console log shows lots of delay about "did not die after sending SIGKILL." The Console log also shows the 5 minute delay in startup. In the log below, look at the entry at 5:21 pm on 9/15. That's when the computer started, then the next entry is 5 minutes later at 5:26pm. That's my 5 minute blue screen startup.
    Anyone know what's going on? Thanks.

    Curious to know how you got to 10.5.8, If you went through Software Update, using the "Delta" updates, or if you used the 10.5.8 Combo? It might be worthwhile applying (or re-applying) the 10.5.8 Combo, which might serve to fill in anything missing or possibly corrupted.

    The other thing I'd try is running Applejack which is a very useful little program for troubleshooting and repairing. It runs from Single User Mode. Hold CMD-S at the startup chime. Here's a short article explaining how it's used. (Also, be sure to read the Read Me.) It's very easy to use. You just follow the on screen prompts. First, just type in applejack and press return. To begin with, I'd only run it only for steps 3 and 4, which will do a relatively light cache cleaning (but, importantly in your case, clean out the boot cache) and check for corrupted Preference files. Doing it this way, you'll also be able to run those steps for your user, not just the system. If that doesn't help, you can run it for deeper cache cleaning by typing in applejack AUTO and let it run through a full sequence of tasks. Note: that if you do a deeper cache cleaning, you can expect the system to run a bit slower until those caches are rebuilt.

  • No startup chime, red light, fans running loud...

    yeah, I know that there are other threads with the same topic, but I just wanted to know how common this problem is?
    How many people have experienced this?
    What are the common disturbances?
    What is going on?
    Why is such an expensive, powerhouse computer become such a puny electronic product because of power issues?
    I posted this in another thread but,
    Here's my story:
    I am having the same problem.
    Now before you start taking advice to back up all your data, reformat your hard drive, and reinstall all the software; please take note of a few things:
    first off, I'm ****** that this is happening to me. I spend $5000+ for a "reliable" Apple computer. Then it doesn't want to turn on because its not safe. Sorry if I drown this post with bitter sarcasm but I am coming to the end of the line with my patience.
    I called Apple Care, read a bunch of posts (here and elsewhere), and yes I do know about the SMU Reset button (like that really does anything?).
    My problem happened a few weeks ago and I thought nothing of it at first. There was a power outage for a quick second and it turned everything off. When I went to turn on my computer, there was no chime, the red light was on, and the fans were running and eventually began running very loud. After letting it run like that in hopes of the screen lighting up, I turned it off by holding the power button. By the way, there's nothing on the screen and the keyboard doesn't work (I use a wireless keyboard, but I plugged in the OG cord keyboard to push whatever series of buttons recommended by these "geniuses") Trust me, the computer doesn't make it to that part of the boot process, so stop with commandoption+PR or F12 to get the CD out. It doesn't work! What's up with this computer! It can handle all these intense calculations,etc. but a power surge is going to shut it down indefinitely.
    So I left the computer came back the next day, turned it on and its fine. Cool, I'm happy. It's Working!! I go on a few weeks, then I go to turn it on this Monday, same problem. But actually a worse situation. I had a client come over and the computer wouldn't work. I looked like a idiot. Couldn't do anything cause my computer didn't want to turn on. I do music production/editing. I use my G5 for running ProTools LE. I have other programs but that is the main one I use. There's nothing wrong with it. It's optimized for use with the mac. So those people who are going to advise me to uninstall all my software and all that - I appreciate your concern but don't give advice when you don't know anything!
    So I am getting frustrated. My client left a little disappointed, but what can you do? I tried to call AppleCare on Mon. but it was Memorial Day. So I waited for Tues.
    Tues morning, my computer turns on like everything is fine.
    I'm happy but cautious. I talk to AppleCare rep. He tells me that it is a common problem they have heard about with the G5's. Wherever blackouts, brownouts, spikes, sags, dips, and other electricity inconsistencies occur, the Power Mac G5 has a breaker in it which flips so it doesn't receive uneven power supply and damage internal components.
    I like that feature. Good thinking Apple. Protecting my investment from bad electrical grids. But I don't like the fact my computer has a mind of its own where it decides when it wants to boot or when it wants to sit there and run its fans all loud.
    I shut down Tues morn to go to work. I come back in the evening, it doesn't want to boot up. Instead of getting angry trying a bunch of times to turn on/turn off the computer, I leave my house all together and go and have a few drinks. I come home ,don't even look at my computer, and go to bed.
    I wake up Wed. morning. Go to turn on my computer. Successful boot. It's running. Okay, I think, I'm going to get down to the problem. I read all the logs, not like I know every piece of info, but just to see what's happening. Everything looks fine. I decide to run the AppleCare CD Tech Tool. It says restart holding down C. I do that. When the gray Apple Logo comes up, all this writing about kernals comes up and it tells me to restart or shutdown. I shutdown and attempt to restart, same problem: no chime, red light on, and fans eventually spin loud. Now the CD is stuck in there. I'm going to take it to the Apple Store tomorrow to if these "geniuses" can figure it out.
    (Just a side note: Apple calls them geniuses, but its hard for me to think some disconnected college kid with a bad haircut and questionable social skills knows what's up with the power supply issues of a computer; maybe I'm wrong, but you can run your diagnostics and look at the chart of what to do and all that BUT Apple needs to listen to the people)
    I am going to get a UPS (uninteruptable power supply) with a clean sine wave output to curb the issue at my end. It's not my fault I live in a area that receives uneven power output. I live in Los Angeles. Summer is starting up and I think its going to be hot, so blackouts, power dips and sags are inevitable. I just don't understand why Apple hasn't considered this problem and fixed it with something:
    A recall to change the power supply, Is it something on the logic board?, are they going to reimburse me for lost income (Ha, yeah right)
    I really want to know how many people are having this problem?
    From what I've heard, it is a common problem.
    So I think we need a common solution.
    If its so common, it must be the computer. We are all going to live in different areas where the power may vary. Not all of us have the consistent power flow of 1 Infinite Loop in Cupertino, CA. So if it is such a common problem, Apple needs to fix it.
    I can't spend more than five grand on a super duper computer and have it wuss out on some power issues.
    Its a loss of income and productivity to me.
    I can't have that anymore.
    Sometimes my computer turns on, sometimes it doesn't.
    I bought my PowerMac G5 in April 2006, its been about a month and a half and I'm having these problems.
    Thank you for your time.
    If anyone else has been having this problem, I feel for you.
    It was been very difficult for me not to curse in this post, but I have tried to extend the same respect to all that use these discussion boards to create dialogue, find help, and create solutions.
    LETS FIX IT!

    Well, you can see my specs below. I have the same problems as you, just worse. I am also running (as I have my previous systems) on an APC Smart-UPS 2200, and it doesn't solve this problem.
    I bought my machine last December. In early March (just 2 days before my 90 days of phone support were up), I woke the computer from sleep to check email; about 5 minutes later it just froze. I had to force it down, but it never even got to the startup chime.
    Called Apple, bought Apple Care on the spot, spent about 45 minutes on the phone with two levels of support, and Apple couldn't really diagnose the problem. They decided to send out a replacement logic board, processor unit and power supply for on-site service (I don't have an Apple service center nearby).
    Nearly two weeks later the technician arrived with the parts, installed all of them, and - nothing. The system still exhibited the same symptoms as before the repair. He spent around five hours here, most of it on the phone with Apple. They decided that the processor unit they shipped was defective, so they sent another processor unit.
    Nearly another two weeks later, the re-replacement processor unit arrived with the tech. He installed it, and everything worked. This was around April 1.
    Fast forward to last Wednesday. Arrived home from work, tried to wake the Mac. Nothing happened. Had to force the machine off. Never booted again. Called Apple and went through the motions again. They're sending another logic board, processor unit, and power supply.
    I asked about having the machine replaced since this will be the third repair attempt, considering it took two visits and nearly a month to repair it the first time it died. Apple was unwilling to replace it but I was told that if I had another failure, a replacement would be in the cards.
    I agree with you about needing reliability in a computer as expensive as a Power Mac. It is not acceptable to have this kind of failure, repeatedly, with this kind of system. If my Windows PC has a hardware failure, I can take care of it myself. A top-end power supply is ~$200, a quality system board is ~$200-$300 - all very doable, and in very little time, if the need arises. A Power Mac logic board is ~$1K, a cpu module is well over $1K, who knows how much that crappy power supply costs, etc. If you have Apple Care, you face the kinds of downtime I'm having to deal with. A month without use of your computer. I mean, if I buy a Dell workstation, or an HP workstation, and pay an extra $200-$300 for service and something fails, Unisys will be here the next day and it will be fixed. That's the standard business class service experience you get from those companies with a computer that costs $600, much less the $3000+ you dish out for a Quad Power Mac. Apple's response is unacceptable.
    It's a good thing I have kept my Windoze machine around, cause it's really saved my butt the last 2-3 months; that also makes me really sad, because in the last 6-7 years of Power Mac ownership I've had zero problems with any of them. My dad has my previous machine, a Rev A Dual 2.0 G5, and it's rock solid.
    I sure hope that the Intel based Power Mac replacement doesn't suffer from what ever seems to afflict the recent Power Macs. I would absolutely hate to abandon OSX, but I will not put up with this kind of quality failure (hardware & service) again.

  • Delay the startup of certain applications

    I am having a problem in that when I start my G4 PowerBook, iChat AV starts BEFORE the Airport connection is completed (I have an old, old, old, did I mention it was old, Graphite Airport). I have iChat set to start up automatically so it tries to start before the computer connects with the Airport. Is there a way to delay the startup of Applications until the Airport connection is made? Is there another way I can have iChat start automatically when booting, but start AFTER it's found the Airport connection? Yes, I know I need to buy a new Airport, but I spent all my money on the G4 PowerBook!
    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Delete the apps from Login items and simply click on their Dock icons to launch. That will speed up the boot process. Yes, you could probably write a script, but manually launching is the simple way.

  • How to physically stop mac pro 2008's startup chime

    I have a 2008 Mac pro and since upgrading to Mavericks, nothing at all has stopped the startup chime from blaring out of the speakers at every startup. In normal use, it's annoying, during troubleshooting, it is intolerable in our quiet workplace.
    None of the 3rd party software solutions for silencing the startup chime work in Mavericks.
    The Terminal solution has not worked since Lion, I believe.
    Muting the volume before shutdown does not work.
    Inserting a headphone plug does not work.
    The chime just will not shut up.
    I am not interested in the replies whose main message is one of these: "Wow, never heard that one before." ; "What a small problem." ; "The startup chime is an important troubleshooting tool." ; "I don't have that problem / your problem is wrong."
    But I would be very grateful for instructions on how to disconnect the speaker physically – preferably without doing any harm to my machine. If there is a software solution that works in Mavericks, I will try it but I am not aware of any.

    Thanks, Johnb-one, I ruled out StartNinja because I have tried it before on a couple OS cats but it has never worked for me. I'll try it again just to be sure because they now claim Mavericks-compatibility.
    As per my original post, I have already tried the other two suggestions. They have worked in the past up until Mountain Lion. Apple has really ramped up security around the startup chime with Mavericks.
    As I understand, the startup chime is a completely separate entity from the OS itself. Some versions of OS X have allowed limited access to its volume but Mavericks removed all that.

  • MacBook Startup Chime Repeating

    Hi, I have a late a late 2009 Macbook and im having a problem with the startup chime repeating and its starting to get rather annoying. It usually just gets to the point where i get sick of listening to it and just hold down the power button to restart it. I have had a look around on other forums and have seen a few people posting the same problem but im yet to find a solution. Have tried the 4 key combo for reseting the PRAM and the problem went away for a couple of days, not sure if it was just a coincidence or... taking it into apple to get looked at isn't really an option as i'm not in the original country of purchase and am constantly travelling at the moment. Anyways has anyone had the same problem or has any ideas on how to solve this? it would be very much appreciated!!
    Also it sounds like the chime sound file is corrupted, it crackles a little towards the end of it and cuts off before it finishes and then just loops again....

    Hello v:
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    The single chime is an audible indication that the Mac has successfully performed self testing at start up.
    The repeat is a new one and I do not know if that is indicating some sort of hardware issue.
    You could reset the PRAM again and also reset the SMC:

  • Pismo G4 550 - no startup chime after 10.4.6

    Since installing 10.4.6 I've had trouble with my start-up chime not working. I have isolated the problem down to the IOAudioFamily.kext file. When I take it out of extension and boot into Classic then back into Tiger I get a chime and it stays on even if I reboot into tiger. If I replace IOAudioFamily.kext to the extensions folder I get a chime on the next boot but after that my reboots are silent. The audio function works well after the boot-up is complete only if I have IOAudioFamily.kext installed. So, I either have a start-up chime and no sound or I have no chime and normal sound. Also, when I run profiler either way I get "There was an error while gathering this information." under the Audio (built in) tab. I've tried taking the IOAudioFamily.kext off the TIger install dvd and using it instead but I get the same problem as before. There must be some sub-extension or something that was changed to cause this. Does anyone have any suggestions besides live with it?
    I've tried the PRAM reset thing and its doesn't work.
    Thanks

    When
    booted in 10.4.6, do you always get the startup chime
    through a restart? If so, then the difference lies
    with the cold start versus the restart and there are
    a few differences.
    I lose the chime whenever I boot into Tiger and let it run to the log-in page. When I safe boot the chime is preserved but the os doesn't recognize my built in speakers and the volume control disappears. If I boot into OS 9 the chime is still gone until I shut down and power up or reboot, then the chime is back. So, my thinking is that there is a kernel extension that enables Tiger to see my IO card (built in speakers and headphone jack) and it must turn off the speakers from the system somehow. The OS 9 startup must unhook the IO card from the driver and therefore allows it to chime when no driver is present.
    A cold start runs the POST (power-on self-test); when
    powered on, the Start Manager, contained in ROM,
    makes sure that certain hardware components on the
    computer's logic board are working, like the
    microprocessor, ROM, drives, ports, expansion slots,
    and RAM. When you hear the startup chime, the Start
    Manager has successfully completed its test.
    Open your System Profiler > Hardware > Diagnostics
    and see what the last POST reports.
    OK, this is weird. When I go to profiler and look up Diagnostics it says "No information found" but you say that post should give some sort of account.
    On my iMac G5 it says:
    "Power On Self-Test:

    Result: Passed"
    I think that means the boot ROM on the pismo (boot rom version 4.1.8f5) isn't talking to the system profiler log.
    Just another tidbit: Audio (built in) says "There was an error while gathering this information"
    No error code.
    This smacks of a firmware issue. Do you think there is a firmware update that would fix it?
    I don't know what else you can do. If it is in fact
    strictly a software problem (which I cannot explain
    since software does not begin to load until after the
    startup chime), I would not be concerned. The other
    test you could perform is removing the added
    RAM...maybe OSX has a small problem with the new
    memory module.

  • How can I turn off the startup chime?

    The chime sounds from the internal speakers at full blast no matter what volume I have set the computer to. Is there any way to turn this off or at least quiet it? It keeps waking my baby up, even when she's sleeping upstairs!

    Julia,
    I have used the System Preference pane that Neil recommended for over a year successfully. It is good to hear the startup chime, even at a much lower volume, because it lets you know that your Mac has passed the built-in Power On Self Test.
    I'm sure that mr fish didn't mean for his post to be as condescending as it seems. You know, telling a woman where her mute key is located! He is new here in the Intel discussions and has been having issues fitting in. He recently learned how to color the text of his posts and isn't aware of how childish and distracting they have become. But he is coming along and is a welcome new personality here in Using Your Intel-based iMac.
    But, mr. fish aside, the tip he gave you about muting your Mac before turning it off should work! So the fact that you report that it doesn't, leads me to believe that there may be some maintenance issues with your new Mac. I want to give you the link to the X Labs. Dr. Smoke, the author, is a long-time, regular contributor here in the Apple Discussions and he has put together a great site that explains well how to keep a Mac & Mac OS X running in good condition. When you have time you can check it out and see if there are some things that you could be doing that will keep things running smoothly.
    Something that will help folks here in the forum when you ask for advice is if you go to your Profile and expand a bit about your Mac; model, OS X version, amount of RAM, etc.

  • Macbook Pro not starting up no startup chime

    Friday afternoon, I attempted to start up the Macbook Pro but after the Superdrive made a sound, I don't hear any startup chime.  Yesterday night, after having to remove the battery and by inserting the RJ-45 Jack into the Macbook Pro, I finally got the thing to boot and I was able to back up both my Mac *AND* my iPhone 5.  However, this morning, in spite of me taking the battery out and also going back to Wi-Fi connection, this morning when I had the Macbook Pro sleep (Macbook Pro Early 2008, 2.6MHz, 15-Inch), when I tried to wake it up, the Macbook Pro won't display any video, so I turned the Macbook Pro off by holding the Power Button until the Macbook Pro turned off.  Now I tried to reboot the Mac by doing a PRAM plus an SMC Reset before I attempted to get the Mac to boot up again.  I turned the power on, same thing happened on Friday Afternoon.  That's the bad news.  The good news is that I was able to have my Macbook Pro backed up whilst it was running yesterday night.  The MagSafe Adapter is displaying a "connected" light (Green/Amber), and I know that the Superdrive is working fine, but I don't hear a start-up chime.
    Now to tell you guys, I've been using a heavy amount of Flash on the Mac, and all I know is that Apple has been very ballistic against Flash due to Flash causing Macs to crash day after day.
    Long story short.  Turned the power on (even without the battery in), MagSafe Adapter is working fine, no startup chime.  I also heard about the mass GeForce recall that affects certain Macbook Pros as well.  I don't want to think it's the Logic Board or the Processor, even worse, the CMOS Battery.   I also don't want to think that my Macbook Pro is infected with a Boot Sector Virus neither.
    Seriously I don't want to see myself buying a new Macbook after 4 years of having the same Mac I have, but it could be the worst case scenario.  I have my Mac backed up on the Time Capsule, just in case I must move to a newer, lighter Mac since I'm more of a mobile Mac user.

    Well 4-5 years seems to be the average life span of a MacBook Pro computer depending upon use, how much dust it's inhales and hasn't been cleaned out
    Also in my opinion that machine is too old to handle 10.7 or 10.8, despite Apple's say otherwise, you should have stayed with 10.6.8
    All I can suggest is you run through this list of fixes, install OS X on a external drive (reboot twice from it to change the EFI firmware) and see if it's a internal hard drive issue, if you have to replace the internal drive, make sure to remove the fans and clean the vents there of dust, but it could be the heat damage to the video chip has already occurred and is irreversible.

  • Muting Startup chime without a 3rd party program

    I have a mac os x 10.6.8 before I used to be able to mute the startup chime by muting the sound before shutting down my mac book pro, so the next time I woul start it up it didn't play thr chime.  Now when I try to do the same thing/process it won't mute the chime anymore. I was wondering if it could be tha there is a problem with my mac or something else?

    Christine_1433, what did they tell you at Apple when you called them? I'm having the same issue. Setting everything on MUTE, plugging in a headphone and again setting Prefs on mute, I still get a LOUD start up chime. I downloaded Start Up Sound. It works if I have Mute checked but there are times I want to the chime to be audible, just now so loud. I use to be able to adjust it before shutdown but nothing works anymore, even resetting the PRAM doesn't help.
    Everything listed in the other thread posts here, and then some has already been tried.

  • No Startup Chime- no joy

    My MacPro was working just fine. Then it just started failing to boot. When I press the power button there is no startup chime and the monitor shows the grey Apple. It then moves on to blue screen with rotating grey clock. Blue Screen changes it's colour tone every so often. Computer makes activity noises then finally settles on blue screen no clock.
    I can T boot and see all 4 drives ok. I have run fsck via Single User and boot drive appears to be ok.
    Can I try anything else??

    It means you have corrupted system files and need to reinstall OS X. You may be able to do the following:
    How to Perform an Archive and Install
    An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
    1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
    3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
    4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
    5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
    6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.
    The lack of a startup chime, however, may suggest a failed motherboard or power supply.
