Desktop keeps restartating.

imac G4 with 512M RAM running 10.4.11.
It crashed and was repaired with disctools. Lost printerdrivers and most of the soundoptions became greyed out.
Reinstalled printerdrivers (Canon MP460). Needed reboot. After the reboot
the desktop seems to restart every few seconds never longer time between restarts than 10 seconds. I can access and start things from the dock and they stay on the desktop but should I manage to click fast enough to open mac hd for instance next restart sees it closed.
A scan of the harddrive says it is ok.
Am I having heat problems ?, is the printer driver the cause ?
I've tried several times to start from the install disc. Holding c pressed while restarting or from the startdisc utilty start from install disc both have failed.
I end up back at the restarting desktop.
I've tried to find anything about windowmanagers/desktops restarting.

Hi tindome, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Most likely it's Stuffit AVR, though a few others have been implicated see if System Preferences has a Stuffit Pref Pane. click stop...
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1873700&tstart=0
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 action in Safe Mode...
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it is some 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

  • Desktop not loading, I have to keep restarting computer and it doesn't always work!! Why???

    everytime I turn on my computer it loads the basic desktop (factory settings one) with non of my icons or image.
    Sometimes if I restart my computer it loads correctly and other times I have to keep restarting my computer.
    This is extremely annoying can anyone help to fix this issue.
    It is happening on both mine and my spouses computer and both computers are less than 12 months old!
    thanks.

    Hello m ember87un
    What operating system are you running and what model of HP computer do you have? Based on your description it sounds like your user profiles may be corrupt or the computers are experiencing other problems. According to a Knowledge Base (KB) article from Microsoft this can also be caused by antivirus software scanning your computer what you try to log in. See the link to the KB below for troubleshooting steps if you are running Windows Vista or Windows 7.
    As you can see in the symptoms Windows is loading a temporary profile for you. Do you receive any messages similar to "The user profile service failed the logon. User profile cannot be loaded."? Let me know what happens.
    Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" to those that help solve your problems.
    When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.

    I have exactly the same problem. The computer keeps restarting, with exactly the same Kernel Panic. I also tried that application to toggle the graphic cards, no difference. The only difference is that this was rare in Mavericks. In Yosemite it's 2 or 3 times a day.
    Sometimes is crashes right after restarting. I'm looking at the desktop as it appears, and it crashes again in front of me. It's ridiculous. I never saw anything like this, not even in a Windows machine (and I used them for 20+ years).
    So that means we have a defunct machine? Apple allows this to happen? We have a faulty machine and we have no option but to live with the constant crashes, or go back to OSX Lion? That's ridiculous!
    Can't Apple just make a software update to deal with this?? I don't want to go back to the stone age!

  • ML keeps restarting after installation! HELP!

    I have installed ML and after the installation, it keeps restarting itself. Sometimes it will make it to the desktop and other times will just restart when at grey screen. I have rebooted to disk utility using CMD+R and verified and repaired permission and it still did not help the problem. Now I have booted in safe mode, and it says my software is 10.8 (ML). The update does not show up in my app store, what is the next step to reinstalling ML or any other ideas

    So under the four options it gives me, pick the reinstall OS X option? Also, could you explain the Archive part in more detail as I have never had to do anything like this before. Thanks

  • FINDER keeps restarting itself.

    ok, I wrote before about the issues I'm having with FINDER. I have since realised that if I am on my Finder/Desktop window showing the desktop - it keeps restarting itself every 10-15 seconds. If I have a window open (such as looking in Folder Contents) it closes that window and all the desktop icons disappear and it restarts Finder! it is very, very annoying. Does anyone know what this could be??
    Cheers
    Nahum

    {quote:title=Justabiologist wrote:}
    It turned out to be the Stuffit AVR System Preference. Once I turned it off, no Finder relaunch.{quote}
    Thank you so much for this information! Although I am not the OP, I had the exact same problem thanks to the Quicktime 7.6 update. I have been going crazy trying to find a solution, and it was just this simple. I went into my Stuffit AVR system preference, hit stop, and the problem is gone. Thank you so very much!!

  • IMac keeps restarting on its own

    My IMac keeps restarting on its own. It never really gets to the desktop when it restarts. Everytime it starts over, it gives me a message stating that it restarted because of a problem. I'm afraid It might be infected with some type of virus (if it's at all possible). Iupdated the OS to Mountain Lion a few days ago could that be the reason? I also tried to download some programs but erased them before installing anything. Could it have been me? Did I get my baby sick?

    Much to my dismay I don't have Applecare (that will change soon).
    GeekSqad at bestbuy was not able to help, despite the $170 buck I dished out so I'd get help for the next 2 years.
    Called applecare anyway (cause bestbuy know very little about Macs) and even though I don't have their service, after hours of trying different things, we couldn't fix the issue anyway. Later, on my own, I went ahead and re-installed Mountain Lion from the restore menu (command+R) and the computer seems to be working fine. Hope this helps someone else.
    Thanks again Mr. Boyd

  • IPhone 3Gs keeps restarting ever second I've tried everything that I possibly could but nothings working...

    Ok I have noticed alot of the same posts but my iPhone 3Gs is restarting every second not minute. It started when I went to restore my phone cause i saw for some odd reason i had over 2gb of memory being waisted by "other" what ever makes that up, anyways so after i restored it I told it to restore from back up ever since then it keeps restarting. help please :-/ ???

    Then the next step is to try the process again, this time restoring as a new iPhone rather than from backup.  (The restore may not have worked if the source of the problem is contained in your backup.)  If restoring it as new doesn't resolve the problem then it is probably a hardware problem and you will need to take it to the Apple store for evaluation.  I would save a copy of your backup to your desktop before proceeding so it isn't accidently overwritten.  If it is a hardware problem and you end up replacing the phone you will want to restore your new phone from this backup in order to keep your data and settings.  You will find the backup at one of these locations:
    Mac OS: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup
    Windows XP: %AppData%\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
    Windows Vista: %AppData%\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
    Windows 7: %AppData%\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup

  • Finder froze, restarted. Now keeps restarting after boot.

    Hi!
    The title pretty says it all.
    Finder froze completly, and I forced a restart. After the restart it keeps restarting AFTER boot. By that I mean after getting into the desktop.
    Any ideas?
    Tried a few things my self, but it just keeps restarting..
    Got a Mac mini, can the macbook somehow boot from that? I just need the data from the harddrive!

    I could not find anything the direction I was going. OK, you can start from your DVD. What happens if you just click install? If you are able to install, then your would be installing Sno over Sno, as if doing an upgrade install, in an attempt to fix your Sno installation. In principle, your files, users, apps, and settings would not be affected. But,before trying this sort of install, you will need to resolve the issue of what sort of backup you have. Most importantly you may have important unbacked up files. If so, then you might be better off going to a data recovery specialist before trying to reinstall Sno over Sno.

  • Finder keeps restarting

    I mounted an image for a game. Everything ok. Then i wanted to copy it on my desktop and Finder keeps restarting. I can't close it nor relaunch it.
    Does anybody have an idea what to do?

    it went away on it's own after a few weeks...I'm not complaining though!

    What happens when you install the original RAM?
    A 2009 15" model identifier 5.3 MBP will accept RAM with the following specifications:  204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
    You have installed RAM with these specifications;  DDR3, 1333 MHz.  Should you install with the correct specifications, the MBP will probably operate correctly.
    The best sources of Man compatible RAM are OWC and Crucial.
    Ciao.

    Call Apple Care. 
    #1 - You have 14 days from the date of purchase to return your computer with no questions asked.
    #2 - You have 90 days of FREE phone tech support.
    #3 - If you've purchased an AppleCare Protection Plan, your warranty last for 3 years.   You can obtain AppleCare anytime up to the first year of the purchase of your computer.
    Take FULL advantage of your warranty.  Posting on a message board should be done as a last resort and if you are out of warranty or Apple Care has expired. 

  • My 15-inch, Mid 2010 Macbook Pro keeps restarting

    Sorry if this has been asked here before but I've been having lots of trouble with my Macbook Pro lately and I'm not sure what to do. It keeps restarting all the time and I've noticed that it mostly occurs while I'm using the Type Tool in Photoshop. Which is very upsetting because I use that program a lot and I'm not sure what to do about this. The problem started earlier this year and has since gotten significantly worse, especially after upgrading to "Mavericks" OS X 10.9.4".
    Processor  2.8 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory  8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M 512 MB
    And here's the report that I received on the latest restart:

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you so much for the reply!!! This really means a lot!  I'm not familiar with that software and admittedly, I'm not all that tech savvy.
    If I download this, does this mean I can use Photoshop again (Albeit temporarily)? And will disabling the GPU have any negative effects on my computer?
    And I've also seen that a few other people have had similar problems with their "Mid-2010 Macbook Pro's" - is this because of a faulty hardware problem? And is the solution to have it replaced?
    Sorry for all the questions by the way. Like I said, I'm not all that tech savvy but I really want to fix this and start using my computer like I used to before. Also, I live in the Territories in Canada and have no access to any Apple Stores so I can't really book a Genuis Bar appointment until my next holiday, which, sadly, won't be for quite awhile.
    Again- thank you so much for the reply!!! : )

  • Macbook Pro Keeps Restarting Itself and then totally crashed

    Dear all.
    I am using Macbook Pro 13-inch (i7 2.9 Ghz, 8 GB DDR3, 750 GB) with OS X Maverick (10.9.4).
    For the last few months, my Macbook Pro kept restarting itself and I usually ignored this issue until yesterday, my MBP fail to boot up, only display the grey apple logo and rolling icon below for almost 30 mins.
    I tried the safe mode and reset NVRAM method and it still fail to boot up and sometimes a black text appears (aka kernel panic).
    Then i took my macbook pro to the nearest Apple service provider and the technician said that it was probably due to the 750 GB Hard Disk since the HD itself is a faulty product, therefore we can't find any 750 GB HD nowadays. So he recommended me to replace my current HD with a new HD. I took his advice and I replaced it with 1 TB Toshiba HD. And then the technician reformat my MBP and installed the OS X Maverick. My Macbook pro able to boot up now.
    However the next day I still find my MBP keeps restarting itself (until now) and take note that I didn't install any new softwares, I only updated the available  updates in Apps Store for the OS, iBooks, and iTunes.
    Can anyone recommend me what to do? Is this a Hardware problem or software problem?
    I'm thinking to switch back to OS Lion to see whether this is mainly due to OS Maverick.
    Thank you.

    Unfortunately yes.   Since the computer is unable to boot up, that part of the software starts BEFORE the OS would.  Last time I had this problem, it turned out to be a faulty GPU (soldered to the logic board) and i needed to replace the logic board.    If you wanted to, you could indeed back up your personal data (you should ANYWAY, no matter what you do)  and you could try to do a fresh install,  but I'm fairly confident you are experiencing either faulty ram, or a faulty logic board.

  • I updated my iPod to the newest software and now my it keeps restarting. I can't view anything. The logo is the only thing I can see. I can't even turn it off.

    I hooked my iPod touch (4th generation) up today and it said that there was new software to be downloaded so I downloaded it. Everything seemed fine but when it was complete it restarted and restarted and is continuing to keep restarting. Has been for a good hour. I can't turn it off, restore or anything. What can I do?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
