Failure after software update

Have just downloaded latest updates to itunes and and OS X security update 2011-006 and my macbook pro crashed and died.  Had to restore from back up as repair disk did not work.  Four hours!!!!! Luckily I had taken recent back ups but this is downright stupid of apple not to QC their updates.  A very irritate apple user.

Hmm, I'm about to think this could be a faulty battery. Do you have any spare battery to try?
Anyway, I don't know what a Nokia care point would do, as I don't actually know what's wrong with your device. There could also be a hardware fault in your device which accidentally appeard at the same time you did the upgrade.

You cannot roll back to older fw.

  • Internal camera failure after software updates...first skype couldn't......

    Hello!
    I am having internal camera failure after software updates...first skype couldn't find the camera, and now photo booth also says camera is not connected. Its a brand new MacBook Pro which has been working fine for a month, but after a software update (the blinking message said i had 13 new things to update...you know what I'm talking about right?) all of a sudden Skype couldnt find a camera, so i went to the skype community and tried some things (like trashing skype) but now photo booth says no camera detected, which is weird cause the camera is built into the computer..
    Please help!
    Thanks

    First, reset the SMC:

    If that doesn't help, then take it to an Apple Store for examination.

  • Complete Startup Failure after software update (?)

    Hello,
    I just updated my computer - G4 Silver Desktop - with the latest offering from Apple, which I think included updates for OS X, iTunes, & Quicktime.
    However, immediately after this update, the computer will now no longer get past the initial 'Grey/Apple' screen. It begins and spins for a while, and then just shuts down completely.
    I am searching for my Startup Disk in my stacks of stuff right now, but I am wondering if anyone can provide other suggestions to help.
    thank you!
    John

    Try starting in "Safe Mode" (hold shift at startup)
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107393
    If your computer starts up, repair permissions, verify disk (both in Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility)
    If you are able to get to apple.com, download the "Combo" update and avoid the "Software Update..." (use that to see what is needed and get them from the apple.com site) re-apply the update and restart.
    I'd start there. Post any results.
    Good Luck

  • Computer startup failure after software update

    After downloading the recent OSX software update last week, I shut down for the day. Upon restarting the next day, the computer won't start up. It gets to the point of the grey screen with apple logo (though no progress indicator). It also won't start in safe mode either. Anybody had similar issues or has any wise ideas about fixing? Thanks.

    "After downloading the recent OSX software update last week..."
    I take it you are referring to the Tiger v.6 update?
    The first time that you restart after installing the update, the computer does not actually fully restart but instead stays on the grey screen for ages while indexing and optimisation are carried out (without a progress bar).
    Once that sequence is complete, the computer then automatically re-boots.
    Can you confirm that your computer has completed the above sequence, i.e. download update, restart to finish installation, grey screen for a long time, and then auto restart before OSX loads?
    If it has completed the double-boot sequence following installation of Tiger v.6 then there may be other problems.

  • Ipod touch4g  is not detected in pc and itunes after software update

    after software update is done. when i connect my ipod touch it is not detected in pc (windows 7) and in itunes please help me anyone.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • New iPad with retina display with 30 pin connector mirroring to TV with dvi adapter problems after software update

    Hi. Good day to everyone my New iPad with retina display 30 pin connector will not mirror to TV even with divi adapter after software update. Adapter works fine. Or is it a software glitch with IOS 7.04? I've tried resetting and reconnecting nothing seems to work.

    That's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.
    So, an update... after reading through a bunch of similar complaints (there are literally 1000's of them so there's NO WAY this isn't somehow ios7 related, thanks a lot APPLE ) I decided to try a restore in recovery mode. After 3 hours and several disconnections... I ended up having to just set it up as a new iPad, as the restore did nothing. Weirdly though... as I was doing the restore in recovery mode.. I noticed I'd gotten up to a 10% charge.. higher than it's been since September, so after setting it up as a new device, I turned it off and plugged it in using the wall charger. 2 hours later and I was up to 38%. Still not great, as my iPad, before ios7 could've fully charged twice in the amount of time it took for me to now get 28% more of a charge. And that's with a fully cleaned out device.. so that really ***** and I'm now more confused than ever.
    But I'm gonna leave it overnight charging and see what I come up with tomorrow. Sadly, when I paid $600 for it in February, I never expected to have to play "wait and see" with it...

  • IPhone went bad after software update - iPhone 5 is now stuck on Itunes connect and has vertical lines

    iPhone went bad after software update - iPhone 5 is now stuck on Itunes connect and has vertical lines.
    I found a video on youtube with similar issues - http://youtu.be/Xuuqxx18-bA
    EVERYTHING HAS BEEN TRIED: Restore, Reboot, Recycle, Replacing Cables, etc....
    I don't have Apple Care, what to do? Spend more money and buy a new phone?

    Here is another person who has a problem with the iPhone 5 screen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sc1ZPWSA8dc and they have just received them NEW!!!!!
    I myself, two days ago purchased a  2nd hand iPhone 5 that was advertised as having a line of squares at the bottom of the screen. I Googled it and found people saying it was a screen issue and to replace the screen, so I did this and it is still happening with a new screen.
    I am starting to dislike Apple intensely after reading forum posts and watching videos where people are asking for help and telling us about issues that they are having with their phones.
    Why is Apple getting it so wrong with their updates and manufacturing that they are completely destroying iPhones that cost a lot of money and then expecting the owner to purchase another phone unless they are still in warranty.
    Apple you should be going out of your way to put things right for people but instead there is a wall of silence over so many of the issues destroying peoples phones.
    SHAME ON YOU!

    Hey iftekhar,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
    I would suggest backing up doing a clean reload of the BlackBerry® device software as shown here: http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/KB11320. Please test before restoring any data to the device.
    If this resolves the issue do a selective restore of essential data (Address Book, Calendar, Task, Memos, BBM contacts etc.)

    http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/KB10339.
    If the issue still persists after the reload, further investigation might be required. To help further diagnose the cause, contact your wireless service provider or BlackBerry® Technical Support Services for further review and support.
    Thank you.
