Error in verbose mode using  fsck

It says
***** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED*****
:/ root# exit
logout
and now it's endlessly displaying diskOs2: media is not present

We don't know whether this tutorial was written for Photoshop or Photoshop Elements, more specifically for which version of PSE. There are differences. Be sure to have the layers palette open.
Try this instead
Open picture B, the one you wish to select something from to add to another picture.
Use one of the selection tools, e.g. selection brush, lasso tool, to select the object. You will see an outline ("marching ants") once the selection is complete
Go to Edit menu>copy to copy the selection to the clipboard
Open picture A, then go to Edit>paste
Use the move tool to position object from picture B.
In the layers palette you should see picture A as the background layer, and object B on a separate layer.
To unlock the background layer, double click on it in the layers palette. Perhaps your tutorial will  guide you through the process.

  • Errors in Verbose Mode?

    I have been having problems with my Macbook Pro with that it takes 5 minutes to boot and it is a Early 2011 high end MBP 15" (came with Lion, upgraded to Mountain Lion)
    Anyway, I had been looking for what was wrong, I had done CCleaner, didn't help. Cleared login/startup items, nope didnt help. I also cleared the PARM whatever thing, no help. So I decided to boot in Verbose.
    I figured out it is something with the disk, but I don't understand how because I had ran disk utility and it said it was fine. Idk, but I need to be able to paste the code from console so yall can see the log, but I don't know how!
    Please help!

    1. you could start up your computer in target mode, which would require another (working) mac with a firewire port, and then try repairing the disk.
    2. you could use some 3rd party software, like techtool, and boot from that disk.
    3. if you had applejack installed, you could use it from single user mode.
    4. or you could cough up a few bucks and buy snow leopard.

  • Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 "The editing mode used by this project could not be loaded."

    Hello-
    I am encountering an issue with my Adobe Premier Pro CS3. I am trying to open up a project that another person has created on a different editing system. When I try to open, it comes up with the error "The editing mode used by this project could not be loaded. The project will be opened in Desktop mode." The next window is a Windows Explorer screen, that wants me to choose a file to open. If I cancel that, it brings up a blank looking project with no timeline or anything?
    A quick comparison of systems:
    Mine:
    HP dc7700s desktop
    Windows XP OS
    Adobe Master Collection CS3
    Hers:
    IBM compatible laptop
    Microsoft Vista
    Adobe Premiere Pro CS3
    Adobe Photoshop CS3
    I have googled the error message, but have not found anything to fix this. I have also verified from Help - About that we have the exact same versions of Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 installed.
    I need to be able to view this project on either computer. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!
    Thank you!

    >project will be opened in Desktop mode
    I have never used any non-standard files, but from reading here, desktop mode is used when the video files are not standard... in one way or another, but usually pixel dimensions
    What is the codec and properties of the files in that project?
    Are you sure they are 100% standard?

  • SSRS error - verbose mode

    We have a SCCM and use SQL 2012 server for reporting. Recently we have started experiencing a problem where we can browse to the reports and once we do run the reports, it tries to run forever and eventually halts with the following error
    An error occurred within the report server database. This may be due to a connection failure, timeout or low disk condition within the database. (rsReportServerDatabaseError) 
    I have enabled verbose mode on the sql server and restarted the reporting service. Below is the log file where I am hoping someone will be able to tell me what the issue is:

    Thanks.

    This was to do with NIC settings on the SQL server. There was a mis-configuration where data was taking long time to copy. Once we have corrected this, all started to work just fine.

  • Can't turn off Verbose Mode after running disk defrag in minimal environment using Drive Genius 3

    New to posting on here. I'm using a
    Mid-2009 15in MacBook Pro
    2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    4 GB memory
    After running Disk Defrag in a minimal environment using Drive Genius 3 my MacBook Pro only starts up in Verbose Mode.
    I've done my searching on how to turn verbose mode on and off on the web and it gets me nowhere.
    Using
         sudo nvram –p
    in terminal shows that there is no " v" after " boot-args "
    Using
         sudo nvram boot-args=
    to turn it off hasn't done anything.

    I'm having the same issue but the solution suggested by prosoft doesn't work because that file des not exist.
    Prosoft was able to help me.
    First, FileVault is not reccomended and they are adding a FAQ to address that.  Next, they said to trash this file:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist
    and to restart.  It seemed to have worked for me.
    If anyone has any other suggestions then I would be grateful.
    Many Thanks.

  • Early 2011 MBP stuck on gray screen, verbose mode shows SMC error too

    Hi!
    I have and early 2011 MBP, running on OS 10.7.5 is continuously stuck at grey screen upon start-up.
    I tried the steps as mentioned in Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup - Apple Support article apart from reinstalling OS X. The laptop started after every step, but then stopped again. I tried SMC update, that also worked for once, and on the second start up I ended up with a blue screen. During a later attempt, it worked again for a while, but ended with a distorted graphics after 15 mins. AHT (short version) doesn't show any hardware errors. Now the laptop doesn't go further than grey screen at all, and after a minute or so there's a heavy fan activity. The verbose mode also shows and SMC error, smc: : smcinithelper error: mmio regmap ==null - fall back to old smc mode (AHT Shows SMC version as 1.69f4)
    What do you advise?

    Try this:
    Reset the SMC and the NVRAM:
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204063
    Then try a safe boot:
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201262
    Any success?
    Ciao.

  • Boot using verbose mode

    When booting with verbose mode (cmd v) it all scrolls by faster than I can absorb it. Ok, I'm slow. Does this get saved to a log file somewhere that I can look at with a more leasurely pace???
    hyram

    Everything should be in /var/log/system.log

  • Suddenly, Macbook doesn't boot up in single user mode or verbose mode

    Hello, I use the single-user boot up quite often to check permissions and do a fsck after my mac crashes.
    I do this by pressing Apple(Command)-S at startup or cmd-V for the verbose mode. I do this all the time.
    But now my Mac won't take it anymore. It just refuses to accept any key combo. Any ideas why this is happening?
    thanks.

    Hi Jose, actually you don't have to boot to single user and repair permission all the time. Just perform that after you update your software and or hardware.
    Can you start up normally and then use your keyboard as usual, or is the keyboard refuse to do so?
    Try to reset your PRAM and or PMU to refresh your hardware behavior.

  • IMac won't boot up. Stuck in "verbose mode" ??

    I've had this problem on and off for a few weeks now. I either restart my iMac after installing some new software-or for other reason- and my computer won't boot up. Sometimes it will stay at the white screen with the grey apple for hours if I leave it there. I've tried all the tricks with key commands. I even reinstalled my software, which worked, but now its happening again. Today, I restarted my iMac, and the same thing is happening, except sometimes it will go into what I've heard called- "verbose mode." The screen is black and white command text appears in the upper left hand corner. Here are some examples of what appears...
    No Airport driver found.
    Exited abnormally. Bad system call.
    Repawning too quickly! throttling
    10 more failures without living at least 60 seconds will cause job removal.
    Will restart in 10 seconds.
    (this will continue until it has restarted and failed 10 times. After this is done, it will display one of the following...)
    too many failures in succesion
    OR
    local:/root# (continuously flashes on the screen)
    OR
    localhost:/ I have no name!# AppleYukon- eno link active, 100-Mbit, full duplex, flow control disabled.
    I really don't know what to do. I'm really frustrated with my iMac. I've had to replaced a dead hard drive within the 6 months of my purchase, and now it is acting crappy again.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks.

    I tried using the disk utility on the grey disks, but
    they can't repair the error on my HD. I can't restore
    the original software from the disks either... there
    is an error when I try.
    No, you can't restore while the current OS is in place, due to the fact that your 10.4.8 isn't compatible with the older version (10.4.4) that's on the install DVDs. Once a Mac OS is in place, it can only be upgraded, not downgraded. You'll have to choose either:
    to "Archive & Install" which would set aside your current system unerased until the new installation is completed and your current settings are transferred over - at which point you can erase the archived OS.
    to entirely erase and reformat the HDD, then install a fresh OS.
    Use the install disc's version of Disk Utility to perform either. First, though, you probably need to do a PRAM reset - that often clears things up so that you won't get an error message.
    To reset the PRAM:
    1. Shut down the computer.
    2. Locate the following four keys on the keyboard: Command (Apple logo), option, P, and R. You will need to hold these four keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    3. Start up the computer.
    4. Press and hold the Command-option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination after the startup chord sounds, but before the gray screen appears.
    5. Hold all four keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup chord for the second time.
    6. Release the keys.

  • Shutdown while startup, disk full error on verbose

    i have a mac book pro when starting , the gray screen appears, later the apple and 10 seconds later aprox, turn off
    i try verbose mode and after turn off i can see a message “Disk full error"
    Operating system: OSX 10.9
    322MB FREE OF 300GB .. (my girlfriend is a graphic designer and does not pay any attention to alerts ..)
    I prove, smc reset, 2 chime sound test, safe mode (turn off too).
    performing tests were:
    1. Launch the recovery console ( from bootable usb osx mavericks) ,
    a. i probe unmount the volume Macintosh HD, not possible, because, its in use.
    a. verify disk ( Macintosh HD) , "the disk needs to be repair"
    b . repair disk ( Macintosh HD) , Keys out of order , ... Utility cant repair disk , and restore your backed -up files
    c . Check disk (320gb toshiba ..) , the partition map need to be repaired , because ... Problem with the EFI system partitions
    d . repair disk (320gb toshiba ..) , but ... when repair , try with Recovery HD, and works fine (not Macintosh HD)
    After that, the disc automatically unmounts and its not possible mount again (from terminal said "mount: /dev/disk0s2: unknow special file of file system")
    2 . Probe I start with a recovery console (local disk)
    same results (on repair 320gb toshiba.. the first time i run it, said "can’t perform live”, after that, same result like point 1
    3. restart, with recovery console (local disk)
    a. launch terminal and try to delete manually , go to /dev/disk0s2 (/Volumes/Macintosh HD) and can browse the disk  (ex /Users/xxxx/Desktop), but when tried rm, appears “Read-Only File System"
    4. Remove the HD from mac and put it on case, when i connect it via USB to another mac book pro, the OS, saids “can’t recognize the disk, initialize, ignore, eject)
    it is possible unmount the volume and remount like read-write from recovery console?
    is it possible to access the data in read-write mode for any way to delete some huge files?
    its the only solution mount and external disk and make and tedious scp from Terminal???, if its possible
    regards, sorry for my bad English
    Dario

    There are lots of hidden directories. There could be actual data instead of alias mount points under "/Volumes" which is often one reason.
    There are a couple programs to show where space is going, as well as sort output from terminal, but I prefer OmniGroup OmniDiskSweeper - look on MacUpdate - to show and access files. Program works fine even though shareware.
    And yes, you might want to use the Raptor? for something else and get even WD 640GB for $75, or the 3rd gen VelociRaptor 300GB $289.
    There are threads in "Using Leopard" regularly about "where did my space go."

  • Verbose mode ****

    So it all started a while ago when sleep mode only lasted for 10 seconds after I upgraded to 10.4.9. I read that this was a common problem, so I just shut down at night. About a week ago, the computer kept booting from the gray Apple boot screen straight to the Blue Screen of Death: "You need to restart your computer". Kernel panic. Yay. Always a code 14: page fault.
    So I swapped the ram but nothing changed, and I could boot into OSX fine occasionally. No Disc Utility noticed anything wrong. Then yesterday my MBP quit recognizing my external hard drive. I can use the hard drive with Windows machines and my iMac G4 just fine. I've tried to boot in safe mode, but while holding down shift, the gray screen just stays there spinning forever. I can't boot into open-firmware either.
    When I put the install disc in and held down C, I got a kernel panic message that said Unable to find driver for this platform : “ACPI”, and now my computer is in verbose mode telling me all kinds of awful things about the mDNSResponder, and " I have no name!#"
    I'm fine with backing up my data and reformatting if that's what it takes - but since the MBP won't recongize the hard drive I can't do that. I want to take it to the genius bar tomorrow and see if they can figure out what in the world is going on.
    Here's some stuff verbose mode is putting out right now:
    mDNSResponder: GetDNSConfig: Error: dnsconfigurationcopy returned NULL
    configd[257]: No AirPort Driver found.
    configd[257]: LINKLOCAL: inet6attachinterface(en0) failed, File exists (17)

    Furthermore, the PRAM reset command won't even load the gray Apple before it restarts (maybe that's normal). I managed to get into Hardware Test mode by holding D.

  • Help! G4 PowerBook will only boot up in Verbose mode(?!)

    Whenever I switch on my PowerBook, it won't get past the chime/black screen unless I press Option-V.
    Without Option-V, the hard disk starts up and sounds normal, but after approx. 10-15 seconds of black screen I hear a high-pitched squeak as it appears to shut down the power. (Tried removing battery and plugging into mains power.)
    I tried lots of different key combinations (e.g. boot from Tiger) but even the DVD drive appears to die and shut down.
    However, when trying verbose mode to trace the problem through the logs, I have found that Option-V causes it to boot normally. I don't see any log information at all(!) - the PowerBook goes through the normal startup process to the Apple logo and then successfully onto the finder.
    Has anybody got any idea what could be wrong?
    (The PowerBook is 2-years old and there were no visible warning signs leading up to this problem.)

    First:
    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. Then 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 click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now shutdown the computer for a couple of minutes and then restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    If the hard drive is OK per the above then reinstall OS X by doing an Archive and Install. Archive and Install will install a fresh copy of OS X without erasing the hard drive. Of course you must have sufficient free space on the hard drive to do this (8-10 GBs during installation.) Your old system will be archived in a Previous System Folder located at the root directory of hard drive.
    Please carefully read the information on Archive and Install before proceeding.

  • Keyboard doesn't work in verbose mode

    Imac boots only to gray apple screen, install dvd will boot to hardware test but not directly to the dvd to reinstall or use the utilities. Tried to go into verbose mode to run fsck but the keyboard stops working as soon as verbose mode is entered.

    Greetings,
    If you cannot boot to the install disk and it is not dirty or scratched then it sounds like you have a hardware issue.
    Reset the SMC and then test: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Reset the PRAM and then test: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/26871.html
    If the issue persists you can try removing any extra memory you may have added.
    If the issue persists then hardware evaluation / service is required:
    -- Contact a local Apple Authorized Service Provider: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1434
    or
    -- Book an appointment at an Apple Retail Store: http://www.apple.com/retail/
    or
    -- Contact Apple: http://www.apple.com/support/contact/
    Best of luck.

  • Vista boots in Verbose Mode

    I just installed Vista and everytime it boots the command line displays verbose mode, meaning it's telling me almost everything it's doing during startup.
    How do I turn this off on a MacBook Pro?
    Normally on a regular PC with BIOS, I am able to press the F# hotkey during startup to set my boot preferences. Not sure how to do this on an Intel Mac.
    Any ideas?
    Also, I'm not sure if this is the right forum to post this, so I am posting this in "Installation..." as well

    Thanks, John.
    The only login item was iTunes Helper. I disabled it. (what does it do anyway? that's for another forum)
    While in System Preferences I also enabled ftp login and file sharing (I think I had left that off before).
    I rebooted and got the familiar blue screen on the external screen, nothing on the built-in screen.
    I logged in from my MBP usin ssh and got connected. I also was able to look at the disk and directories from the finder.
    In terminal, with "top" I noted that there was a stuck process. If I knew Unix I could have determined what that process was but I don't. WaitingForLoginWindow came up at some point when I also used "ps".
    Eventually I decided to try connecting with Chicken of the VNC, and this time I connected. Except, all I got was a black screen. Nothing I did would change it from a black screen.
    What I forgot to mention earlier is that this iBook at first appears to start from a bootable CD (like TechTools or Diskwarrior or a system disc) but then just gets stuck at some point.
    This all seems like a hardware error to me.

  • Grey screen on startup - verbose mode:"We are hanging here..."! Please help

    Dear everybody!
    I'm cross-posting from the iBook forum, because I found some helpful posts over here after posting my problem there. I hope someone can help with these NEWS:
    Here´s the short version:
    Two days ago freeze during dragging a pdf to a USB storage. I shut down all other apps, then also finder, iBook becme unresponsive, so I shut it down with the power button. Since then, I permanently get the grey screen with four language "You need to restart your computer..." on normal startup, no problems starting in safe mode, but then some other strange things happen (e.g. no volume adjustable, no speakers and no mic in sound prefs).
    AHT from original disc: no problems found
    Tried Command S during startup with fsck -fy, same problem on reboot.
    Tried Verbose mode, below is the very interesting last lines:

    Am I having a kernel panic? If yes, why does the console panic log not state any panic since more than a year? What's my next step?
    Thanks for any useful ideas in advance!

    As for now, only thing that helped was an archive and install with preserve user settings. Seems after the reinstall of 10.4. everything that was weird has become normal again. I hope very much this state stays on for a while - or ever!
    A comment to everybody: with problems that are common you get a lot of help from friendly users in here, but if like in my situation things get a bit more uncommon than the usual querks and troubles your bound to go through a whole workflow of tests and algorithms - i did learn some new things but eventually I had to go for the ultimate - the reinstall (of course, erase and install would have been more work.) and it's frustrating not to find out how it came to this problem. I wish I could nail it down to something I did mistakenly - i guess I'll find out next time.
    THANKS THOUGH to those who replied.
