Different startup issue

I have a emac 700/512 MB RAM/40G HD/Combo Drive.
For awhile it would just shut off for no reason. Now when I turn it on, it comes on to the little screen with the gray apple, the little timer startup wheel goes around for 30-40 seconds and then it "sparks" and the computer turns completely off. I have taken the RAM out and put it back in. I have even tried different RAM. I have tried the reset button and Safe Mode. I have zapped the PRAM as well. I have tried different plugs, etc. Nothing works. Does anyone have any suggestions? No, it doesn't fall under the extended repair program either. Thanks for any help.

The 'Apple Care CD', when closely examined, will likely say it's some version of Tech Tool Deluxe (not by any means to be confused with the far more capable Tech Tool Pro 4). I don't think that disc is even bootable, making it pretty much useless (except as a source for the discounted upgrade to TTP4).
I'm not familiar firsthand with FCP, but a crashed/force-quit program could potentially have left the disk directory damaged if it was writing to that when the crash occurred. If the HD is badly hosed, Safe Mode won't boot either. Single-user mode should work regardless of the HD state, through; are you sure you kept command-s down long enough at startup to get into the command-line interface? Try booting from your OS X Install disk to run Repair Disk (per Using Disk Utility and fsck). Take note of whatever problems Disk Utiltiy reports, and repeat DU/Repair Disk until it either reports no more problems or unable to repair. If DU fails, depending on what errors it did detect, DiskWarrior could have a much better chance of working (see the Alsoft website for a list of the sort of problems it can fix; essentially, if you see oberlapped extants or b-tree anything, reach for DW).

  • Another startup-issue

    I have a problem with system startup. My MacBook is pretty much brand new and the system is not cluttered or anything. And still the startup-process freezes even before the apple logo appears, so I just get the grey screen and that's it. I have read about other startup issues, but in those cases the computer at least booted until the apple logo was shown, so my case is slightly different.
    After unplugging my external USB hard drive startup works. It also works when I plug it into the other USB-slot. Other devices plugged into the problematic slot (keyboard, USB-stick) work and do not cause problems during startup.
    Any experiences with this problem? Would you say the USB-slot is broken in any way? Is it something that can be fixed?
    Ordinarily, I would just use the other slot and be done with it. Since the computer is brand new, however, I'd prefer to be on the safe side.
    Thanks in advance,
    Timo

    Hi
    +"Would you say the USB-slot is broken in any way?"+
    Possibly? Running an Apple Hardware Test might say?
    +"Is it something that can be fixed?"+
    Yes. It should be covered under the standard 1 year warranty regardless. Provided the fault is not down to wilful or accidental damage it will be covered under the warranty.
    You could connect the external USB hard drive in the affected slot an restart the mac in verbose mode (command+v) at restart. This should display error messages - if any - at the point where the start-up stalls. Possibly giving a clue as to what it's having a problem with? You may see an I/OKit error problem or something similar?

  • Black Macbook Startup Issues

    Hey guys.
    I'm having a distressful startup issue with my Macbook (13-inch, black). It's happened to me before, but that was a few months ago and everything was fine. Now it's happening again and I'm getting worried that the workaround I've found won't work anymore.
    The first time it happened, I wanted to restart my computer because I had installed a bunch of things and it was running a little slow. After I restarted, I heard the "GONG", the apple appeared, and the spinning gear also appeared. It seemed to be working, but after a few minutes, the apple changed to a "do not enter" sign.
    I tried resetting the P-RAM to no avail, and finally ended up starting up in Safe Mode (by holding the Shift Key) which at least allowed me to start up my computer. From there, I was able to reset and my computer started up normally after that just fine.
    Now, last night, the same thing started happening. There were a few different things that happened this time. For one, I got a big gray box on my screen that told me I needed to reset my computer in a few different languages. Secondly, (the only thing I can attribute the cause to) was that I had opened iChat for the first time in 5 months or so. Shortly after is when I got the box.
    So I reset and started having the same problem. I've reset in safe mode now, and am currently installing an update to OSX 10.6.3.
    The only programs running at the time of the incident were:
    -Google Chrome
    -Text Edit
    -iCal
    -iTunes
    Any help you guys have for me would be GREATLY appreciated! I took it to an Apple store the first time it happened and they didn't know what was wrong with it. :/

    Well, after booting in Safe Mode and installing the update, it started up just fine. I am afraid that this is going to happen again, though. Any help you guys have would be GREATLY appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • Intermittent Startup Issues, Fan Reving

    Has anyone else had startup issues with the G5's? I have had to re-seat memory in my lab on 3 machines and this seems, so far, to have alleviated the problem.
    The funny thing is I have had these machines for about 8 months and never had this problem. My computers are locked and access to the physical memory is impossible.
    Just curious?
    Once I tried to run in Open Firmware the computer beeped 3 times, thus telling me it was a memory issue. Each of the machines exhibited different symptoms??? One was caught in the blue screen. One in the gray screen with neverending fan reving and spinning startup wheel. Lastly, a frozen computer (in an account) where all keyboard and mouse commands are not recognized. Upon hard shutdown and restart either this machine ended up stuck in gray screen **** or started ok.

    Yeah, if you are in a humid lab (i.e. animal research lab) or some other unique environment sometimes the conditions can be less than ideal.
    Most electromechanical connections, such as the slots where the RAM plug in or PCI card slots or cable connections, are more apt to become less than optimal in such a condition.
    Another problem tends to be that the G5 is a hunk of cold metal when powered down or even sleeping and in a cold room. Humidity loves to condense on cold metal and has been known to cause problems.
    However, since all you have had to do thus far is re-seat the RAM, the impact seems to be minimal at this time.

  • New StartUp Issue

    My new MacBook Pro 17" has been having startup issues recently. After I shut down, leave, and come back, the startup issue occurs.
    After pressing the power button, fans will go on, proccessing noises occur, HOWEVER, it just boots to a white/grey screen W/OUT the apple logo or round loading bar. The keyboard does not initialize either.
    The only thing that I have found to 'fix' it, is just to leave it powered off for an extended period of time. It will then boot up.
    I have tried many non-software related 'cures', and my compuer is completely up to date on all OsX software.
    Any ideas guys??

    you can try to boot to safe mode ( restart holding Shift )
    - you can attempt to boot to install disc and disk utility
    - you can boot to AHT ( apple hardware test ) to see what component is failing ( insert disc, restart holding D )
    - chances are, this is a hardware issue though. you will probably need repairs.

  • Startup issue - Process 'Starting Framework'

    Hi
    I seem to have a startup issue with NM2004s.  I get a Half Green/ Half Yellow icon in the MMC.  The 01 instance is always yellow and never progresses onto green.  I have a process status of 'starting framework'.
    Anyone else had this issue?
    Cheers

    Hi Ian,
      I just installed the J2E on a laptop that already has a NSP instance.I am facing the same issue on the J2E.Do you remember if you could resolve this and how?
      Any hints would help.
    Thank you

  • Startup issue when having more than one database on machine

    Startup issue when having more than one database on machine:
    I’ve installed two databases.
    When I shutdown one of the database and try to start it up using
    Startup pfile=’…location..’;
    I get ora-12514: TNS: listener does not currently know of service rquirest in connect descriptor
    when I try it again after 3 seconds, I get a new error, ora-01041: internal error. Hostdef extension doesn’t exist
    Shutdown and Startup gave no problems when I had one database. Why am I getting problems when I have two databases?
    I’m using: show parameter pfile|spfile; to make sure I have the right parameter locations, so the error shouldn’t be from location.
    I’ve never installed two databases on one machine, so maybe I’m making a first-timer’s error.
    Anyone know how to get this working, i.e. starting and stopping DB without issues?
    Using oracle 11gR2 on Windows 7 64bit, all is working normal.
    Thanks,
    Ayman

    Still not working though.
    When I start the services of both databases using Services, I can connect and run queries from both of the database.
    Edited by: aymanzone on Jun 15, 2011 11:47 AMFirstly ... the Oracle Service for the instance should be started for the DB you are trying to connect or start.
    Next ... from the command prompt:
    set oracle_sid=<Instance_Name>
    sqlplus sys as sysdba
    startup pfile='location of the respective db pfile'
    Now, if you want to start or connect to another DB which is on the same server (again assuming the Service is STARTED) ...
    From the same command prompt session or other ....
    set oracle_sid=<Other_Instance_Name>
    sqlplus sys as sysdba
    startup pfile='location of the respective db pfile'

  • Possible to have different Startup-profiles?

    Hi,
    I was wondering if it is somehow possible to have different startup-profiles. I just ordered a MacBook Pro and would like to have different startup and setups to choose from. I could make myself different userprofiles - but that way I think I don´t have access on the same Mail and iChat data - right?
    Any ideas? At home I would like to have a startup with iChat and Mail and other things and when I´m using it on a concert I want to have a different setup without Bluetooth on and sharing and just very sleek.
    Best regards - Christoph

    HI Christopher,
    Congrats on your new MBPro!
    As administrator of your own computer you can set up different user accounts/profiles:
    Adding a new user account to your computer
    You can create individual user accounts for each person who uses your computer. Each new user has a separate home folder and can adjust his or her own preferences without affecting other users.
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences and click Accounts.
    If some settings are dimmed, click the lock icon and type an administrator name and password.
    Click Add and type the user's name.
    If you don't want to use the short name generated automatically, type a new short name. (Once the account is created, you won't be able to change the short name.)
    Type the user's password in the Password and Verify boxes.
    Type a hint to help the user remember the password if they have trouble remembering it at login.
    Click Parental Controls and select options to determine what the user can do with the computer.
    Now, each account would have it's own name and login password. Each account has access to it's own software, ie., Mail and iChat.
    You can set up Bluetooth to pair with various hardware such as cell phones/mice/headphones/keyboards or printers.
    You can set up your MBP to login certain software at startup. Example, I use Safari and my internet connection software daily so I have that set up to launch at startup -- saves time.
    If you have more questions... go here:

    Scroll down toward the bottom of that page. All the specs and warranty info plus software are listed there.
    You will love your MBP!

  • Have any ideas re: G5 startup issues? Long post...

    My dual processor G5 (purchased Jan. 2005) is in the shop, and, of course, out of warranty. It's been down for over two weeks. Here is the story of its demise:
    Installed 10.4.9 upgrade. Began having "launch systems" and crashdump/usb crash errors thereafter. Not a lot of info online regarding these problems, so I decided to do an archive and re-install of my system software.
    Started having intermittent problems restarting the G5. Either it would chime, but not kick on the monitor, chime and kick on the monitor but hang at the grey apple startup screen, or not chime at all, with which only the fans would come on. Apple Extended Hardware Test came back OK. Still had problems after removing my USB devices.
    Problems continued after the reinstall of the system software, eventually to the point where I could not even boot from a CD. When the G5 did operate, after a short period of use it would freeze, and I would have to force a restart and pray it would boot up completely. It would reliably freeze after waking it from sleep, but also froze in iPhoto and Finder as well.
    I have tried resetting the PMU and the PRAM with no improvement. Took it to an Apple Authorized Service Center, luckily only a couple miles from where I work. They tried booting with the Apple RAM only, then the third party RAM only, no improvement. Hard drive was completely reformatted and system reinstalled, no improvement. I am waiting to hear what else they've tried.
    My G5's serial # falls outside of those involved with the power supply issues. Yet, could this be a possibility? Any other ideas as to what the problem could be, or has anyone had similar issues?
    I freelance as a graphic designer and this has me in a panic. Now using the hubby's Intel iMac to run CS2 and it's a drag.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi and thanks for the input. I just spoke to the Apple service guy and he still insists there is not a hardware issue. Apparently there is an Apple technical doc, available only to authorized techs, that refers to this particular issue, and the fix is a download and install (firmware, perhaps?) He has to contact Apple and confirm my G5 is within the serial # range for this particular fix.
    That's my best interpretation of our discussion. He was rather cryptic. But he says it's not the power supply.
    I did an archive and install because, like an idiot, I did not have anything backed up at that point. After that failed, I used up my stash of DVDs and copied gigs to our iMac until the G5 gave out. I had run the hardware test several times and each time came back clean.
    Permissions were repaired before and after updates; had it freeze a couple times mid-update. Tried booting in safe mode and single-user mode and still had the same startup issues.
    To add insult to injury, I purchased a LaCie Porsche external drive as an eventual backup drive whenever the G5 returns. Hooked it up to our iMac to backup the items I saved off the G5. It failed after the second use. Returned for replacement.
    Thanks.

  • Lenovo 3000 N200 - Startup issue from bad to worse

    I was facing similar startup issues like others (abrupt shutdown). I saw posts with similar issue so I tried the method (F1 on startup then F9 and F10) but ended up making things worse. Now it won't boot at all. Goes to "Windows didn't start successfully" and I have tried every single option (safe mode, last known good config and normal start) but nothing works.
    Any suggestion?

    remove the hdd and use linux live cd to check if it boots.

  • IMac 24" core 2 duo - sudden video + startup issue

    Hi
    I have a 24" intel core 2 duo 3.06 ghz from 2009 running snow leopard latest version
    Last night the screen froze with a bizarre array of colours and video weirdness. I had to restart. Since then there is a weird black pattern over the whole screen and it won't get past the grey apple loading screen. I have tried starting from a. Cd - both a system disk and techtool pro disk - apple hardware test startup, safe mode startup all with no result.
    It plays startup chime, shows the grey apple, has a litle disk spin think then freezes again. When I try and start from a cd the cd spins and I can hear it loading but in the end it gives up. I can't hear the hard drive spinning.
    I have a genius bar appointment but first one available is sat am - any thoughts on what this could be. It seems like a hard disk AND a visor card issue but I can't understand why it won't boot from cd
    Thanks in advance
    Ben

    Out f interest i reset the PRAM as well - it did nothing except change the weird video problem to a different pattern!

  • Database startup issue after power failure

    Hello, I am hoping someone might have some ideas for me on this issue. We had a power failure over the weekend and I was not alerted in time to shut down my DB server gracefully. I am running a 10g (10.2.0.4.0) standard database on RHEL 5. When power was restored I booted the server and noticed the database did not start (I have a startup script in init.d), I tried running dbstart manually and that did not work either. Below is the entries in my startup.log file and sqlnet.log file, I cannot figure out what is causing the 12514 error, as everything was working fine before the power failure. Interestingly though I am able to start the DB by running dbca and making a minor config change that requires a restart, dbca is somehow able to start the DB. Any ideas would be greatly apprieciated. Thanks!

    Why do you suggest starting the db before the listener?
    I always start db first then after listener.
    Well, there's a good strong justification ....
    because if you start listener then that time there is no db services to register, and lsnrctl services will show (no services ....) msg. Ok, so I have this startup script. One line starts the listener, the very next line starts the database. So in the few seconds between the listener starting and the database starting and fully opening, I am exposed to the possibility that someone might try to connect and get "ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor". That's opposed to the error they would have gotten a couple of seconds earlier, that would have said .... "ORA-12541: TNS:no listener"
    Or I use your startup script. One line starts the database, the next line starts the listener. A full minute later the instance gets itself registered with the listener. So in the time between starting the listener and the database making as second - this time successful - attempt to register with the listener, I am exposed to the risk of someone making a connection attempt and getting "ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor". And again, this is as opposed to if they had been just a few seconds earlier and gotten ""ORA-12541: TNS:no listener"
    or else if you want to start listener first then edit the listener.ora file and add the sid (few lines) then user will not receive the above mention error.In which case I start the listener first, it now knows about the instance without the instance self registering ... but it still has to wait for the instance to come up before it can service a connection request. How is that any different from NOT listing the SID_LIST, starting the listener, then starting the database and allowing the database to self-register? You are not eliminating anything from the user's end .. simply changing the error message they would get.

  • Windows 8 fast startup issues on X220

    Hi everyone - having some troubles with my X220 and windows 8.1 and fast startup.
    It has been working flawlessly for a few months now with Windows 8 and an SSD but has recently decided it does not want to fast startup - every time I try and boot with the feature enabled the laptop immediately shuts off completely after the boot animation. On pressing the power button again the laptop boots 'normally' i.e. at 'normal' startup speed.
    I've tried disabling the feature, using the 'powercfg -h off' and 'powercfg -h on' commands to recreate hiberfil.sys and enabling it again, which worked at first but now it has started having the problem again and this no longer works.
    Anyone have any suggestions?

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I may have found a 'solution' to this - I found the 'solution' posted by the OP here which was to re-enable the page file and bizarrely it seems to have worked. I am now having a new issue with fingerprint logon not logging me in when I use the reader to power the laptop on - I have to scan it again on the logon screen. Different issue though and I haven't tried any troubleshooting steps yet.
    I'm still not 100% sure this is working so if anyone has any input in the meantime it would be valued!

  • Macbook Startup Issue - Help!!!!!!!!!!!!

    My 2006 mac book had a start up issue a couple of years back, I'd boot her up to be greeted with a screen displaying a start up failed message in three different languages on a grey screen. http://www.minneapolispcrepair.com/images/mac%20error%20screen.jpg
    Looking into the issue I noticed this model of Macbooks had issues with their hard drives and they could be replaced under warranty. Brilliant, booked myself into see a Genius and ha presto a few weeks later my hard drive had been replaced. However a couple of weeks after the replacement the issue started happening again but after a few attempts the Macbook would fire up so it wasn't really an issue just a pain in the butt!! Now 18 months down the line its becoming a real issue again, it must take 7 or 8 attempts to fire the blasted thing up, 25 is my highest so how.
    My question is, what could be causing this start up issue, could it be the hard drive again???? as replacing the hard drive previously didn't really solve the issue in the first place?? Would apple replace this hard drive again????
    The MB is a late 2006 model with Dual Core run Snow Leopard
    Hope someone can help :o(
    Thanks

    This looks like a kernel panic. Try to startup the mac in safe mode (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1455) and observe for a few startups whether the problem occurs again or not.
    If this solves the problem then you may have a problem with your software installation. Consider reinstalling os x or take a look at your system log file and search for kernel panics (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3742).
    If the problem persists you may have an issue with your hardware. I would recommend to take it to an Apple Genius to have the system checked (free of charge afaik).
