Freezes when turned on

The tungsten e2 freezes goes to the preferences tab with location, date, and time; it then freezes on that screen. Soft reset does not help. Any thoughts on how to fix this?

Hard reset to erase the device and start afresh. Hopefully you have been doing regular HotSyncs as recommended so your data can be restored.
To perform a Hard Reset: (Palm Knowledgebase article #887)
While pressing and holding the Power button down, tap and release the Reset button in back and continue to hold the Power button down. When the grey Palm logo appears, you can release the Power button.
You should now see the warning page in about 5 languages. Press the UP direction on the 5-way pad to complete the task. Your Palm will reset itself several times as it re-installs the original programs and erases all your previous data.

My mac keeps freezing when turned on from Sleep

Hello,
I bought in iMac last Summer. About a couple weeks in, I started having issues with my iMac freezing when I would turn it on from Sleep mode. This would not happen every time but instead, intermittently. It also will manifest itself in different ways: programs will freeze one at a time until all programs are frozen I just have spinning wheel, sometimes it will freeze and shut itself down, sometimes it will go to a grey screen, etc. This has made it an extremely hard issue to reproduce at the drop of a hat. The main reason this alarms is that I have a 4-year old Macbook that still works incredibly well, despite being slowerThroughout the past months, I have done just about everything I can think of (and was told to do by Apple support) to resolve this issue.
I have:
Reset the SMC and PRAM
Tried booting in Safe Mode
Deleted the EnergySaverPreference .plist file
Spent hours on the phone/text with various Apple technicians troubleshooting the issues.
Twice done a clean wipe and re-installed OSX. I had this problem with both Yosemite and Mavericks. I have made sure to never restore my Time Machine back ups but instead, bring isolated files in one by one and no "System Files" – just songs, music, documents, and applications.
Twice taken it in to the Apple Store to be repaired and nothing has been done to resolve the problem. I just got it back and within two days, it froze again in the same manner as before.
My technical specs are: iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2013,) 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB 1600 MHz DDR Ram, running OSX Yosemite 10.10.2.
I feel like I am really beginning to run out of options. I feel like I can not trust this machine to do daily tasks or the large projects for which I bought it. I do not have AppleCare but obviously this feels like a pre-existing software or hardware issue and I'm still under warranty. Apple has implied that there would be no way for me to receive any money back and the likelihood of getting a device replacement is very low. I don't have a car so taking my iMac via taxi or lugging it around via public transportation is both very inconvenient and a bit pricey for me. Any advice, technical, for customer-relations, or otherwise?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here's what I got:

Ipod Occasionally Freezes When Turned On

I'm wondering if problems I am having are being caused by the "1.2 firmware freezing problem." I got my 5th gen video Ipod after Itunes 7 was released, so I never had an earlier firmware on my ipod. My ipod does not freeze while playing music, but it occasionally freezes when I first turn it on. When this happens, I will be able to move through the menus (sometimes slowly), but when I try to play anything I hear silence. After I turn the ipod off (which sometimes doesn't work right away) and then back on I can then play audio.
Has anyone else experienced this type of freezing? I'm wondering if I should try downgrading the firmware, which has been suggested in this forum. I've already went through the factory restoration and it did not resolve the issue. Thanks a lot for the help.

Nothin'?

Mavericks freezes when turning off WLAN

I recent upgraded one of my old MacBookPro boxes (Mid/Late 2007 2,2 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB RAM) from a clean and fresh Snow Leopard installation to OS X Mavericks.
So far all works, execpt that WLAN is always on and when i turn it off the MBP will immediately freeze completely. No more reactions at all, not even ssh from another box works.
I already tried this:
PRAM Reset, SMC Reset, deleting SystemConfiguration folder (Library/Preferences)
None of these helped.
OS X is at version 10.9.5.
Any help / hint on the would be nice as i really want to turn off WLAN when not needed. (Which is most of the time).

Macbook pro freezes when turning on

i downloaded lion without any problem. however, 9 times out of 10, when i turn on the machine, the password panel comes on the screen and i can do nothing but look at it. i cannot type my password in the space. cannot use any function. the computer is inoperable. the resolve is to push the on button until it turns off. then wait 10 seconds or so and try again. once i hit the 1 out of 19 try, i can use the computer with no problem at all. this situation had never happened until i installed lion. has nayone experienced this? anyone have a solution?

I'd check by manually in the airport utility to make sure my setting are correct. I have two airport extreme N routers with two Express including 24/7 printing , two airtunes and x-box360 working. My network has been solid for two years. Recently we connected that x-box360 and had problems making it work. It works now but I did make mistakes when trouble shooting and noticed that anything I did when using any application that interfaced with those routers was either sputtering or seemed locked up. Once I corrected my network mistake all is back to normal.

Blackberry Torch freezes when turning on

While using my blackberry it froze, and wouldn't exit from the internet, so I took the battery out. Though after putting the battery back in and trying to restart the device, it gets frozen when loading on the blackberry screen with the bar below. I have tried letting it be for two hours, hoping that it was just taking awhile, but that didn't work either. I also tried taking the battery out and putting it back in. I'm not sure what else to try.

Sometimes it takes a couple of tries for your phone to load. If at first it won't fully load, remove the battery and try again. Try this a few times. If it still won't load after that, you should try connecting it to BlackBerry Desktop Software. If it won't connect successfully, here's what to do:

I loaded PSE9 and uploaded from my camera. Now PSE9 freezes when turned on.

I have over 40 gigs free and enough ram as per box. I uploaded 2600+ photos from memory cards and assigned them to external hard drive. PSE9 is on computer hard drive. When I load PSE9 workspace, it doesn't let me do anything. It worked while I was adding photos.

If you ever unplug an external and plug it back in... and the drive letter changes... you may have problems

Purchased used 4th g it has a lot of glitches sound is not working at all, shutting it off it automaticlly turns back on in 1 min, camera works but camcorder doesn't, all game apps work fine, did freeze when on app store but reset and it seemed to work.

my ipod touch 4th g is running ios 6.0.1 but is very glitchy. there is no sound and if I plug in earphones it freezes up. camera does work but freezes when i try to use Camcorder. App store was acting up but after reseting it multiple times it is working again. When I turn it off with the slidder it reboots after one minute. It is also hard to put into dfu mode and take back out holding consecutive buttons doesn't work....Was stuck in recovery mode for quite awhile till I used a program to kick it out. I did find youtube vidio that showed how to restore audio by deleating a file but of course this takes a little work and don't know if it would work with this ios. Was just wondering what I can try now. Would realy like sound. not so worried about camcorder. Did check settings and no apps are blocked.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
iOS: How to back up your data and set up as a new device
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

You have 2 options: #1 - iPod Repair Tutorials
#2 - take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP. Whichever is more convenient for you.

My macbook pro (August 2010) keeps freezing when apple mail starts up. This happens every 2nd time I turn on my Macbook Pro. This forces me to hold down the power button to restart my Macbook Pro. Does anyone else experience this, and is there a fix? Thx

since upgrading to OS lion, my mac book pro (2010 August) keeps freezing (non responsive, requires restart) when i turn on my mac and the system is trying to open apple mail. while apple mail is attempting to collect new mail, the macbook pro freezes. this happens every 2nd time i try to start up my computer. this only started happening after i upgraded to OS lion. please let me know what I need to do to fix this. being forced to restart every 2nd time i turn on my macbook pro has been very frustrating. not sure if apple mail is also the cause of my macbook pro for being very slow during start-up (on the occasion the computer doesn't freeze).

I am having similar 'freezing' problems with many programs (Mail, Safari, iTunes, etc.). I have done a clean install of Lion instead of an upgrade when it came out. Perhaps something went wrong with my install? I'm thinking about wiping and reinstalling.

My iPhone 5 keeps freezing when I connect to wifi, not just freeze the wifi, but freezes the whole phone and have to hold home and lock button. Locks up completely and instantly when I turn on wifi and connect. Solutions?

My iPhone 5 keeps freezing when I connect to wifi, not just freeze the wifi, but freezes the whole phone and have to hold home and lock button. Locks up completely and instantly when I turn on wifi and connect. Solutions?

1. If you are really on iOS 7.1, you may wish to try upgrading to 8.1.2 which is the latest (basing this on your signature).
2. If updating the phone doesn't help, is this only when you connect to a specific wifi network? Or all wifi networks (including public with no password)? If it is ALL wifi networks, you may have a hardware problem. Genius bar would be the next step.

OS X 10.9 freeze when WiFi is turned off (POSSIBLE SOLUTION)

Hi, I just found a possible solution for this problem: my MacBook Pro freeze completely (without the spinning beach ball) after I turn off WiFi.
I have a MacBook Pro 17 inch late 2007 (MacBookPro3,1 - A1229), with a NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT 256 MB card, running OS X 10.9.
What happened:
- I updated the OS from 10.8.4 to 10.8.5
- My Mac started freezing everytime after login, I don't remember if WiFi was on or off
- Reverted back 10.8.4, thank you Time Machine!
- Updated to OS X 10.9
- Everything was OK, but then I did some work in my home and I had to turn off the modem
- Modem was off, so I decided to turn off also the AirPort card on my MacBook Pro
- After a couple of seconds my computer completely stopped responding, trackpad and keyboard were useless, the UI froze
- After pressing the power button I managed to shutdown the Mac and then start it up again
- Now after the startup process I was stuck in loop: WiFi was still off and I had few seconds to login, wait for my account to load and turn on WiFi from the menubar icon; I failed countless times!
- In an attempt to slow down the Mac and earn some more seconds I did a PRAM reset and logged in with the Shift key pressed (after typing my password)
- I managed to turn WiFi on and looked immediatly for clues on Console logs:

This is what happen to my Mac when I turn off the AirPort card; I don't know if "Google Drive" or "libdispatch client" are the problem, but quitting Google Drive solved this madness.
Hope this helps.

Re: MacBook Pro (2007) 3,1 & 10.8.5 freezing
Re: MacBook Pro (2007) 3,1 & 10.8.5 freezing
Message was edited by: Tom.my

I'm experiencing a similar issue.
In my case, a conflicting kext (kernel extension) from a vitual machine (VirtualBox) was causing an immediate freeze after turning Wi-Fi off. After disabling the kext's scripts, I can now disable Wi-Fi safely but if I reboot then the system hangs at radom instances of boot sequence (for example while showing the apple logo, or at the login screen or a few seconds after entering the password).
I can only boot in single user mode (command-option-S) so after looking around a way to turn on WiFi from the command line, I ended up using a daemon (boot script) that turns on WiFi before anything else happens (at least as soon as the airport card is running).
In any case, I left the instructions here, just for reference.
The script should be created in /Library/LaunchDaemons
It can have any name with "plist" extension, I choosen "com.fixwifi.wifion.plist"
To create the file type: nano /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.fixwifi.wifion.plist
Enter the following text (it's a lot of text, I know, but it is better than nothing):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
    <key>Label</key>
    <string>com.fixwifi.wifion</string>
    <key>RunAtLoad</key>
    <true/>
    <key>KeepAlive</key>
        <dict>
            <key>SuccesfulExit</key>
            <false/>
        </dict>
    <key>ProgramArguments</key>
        <array>
            <string>networksetup</string>
            <string>-setairportpower</string>
            <string>en1</string>
            <string>on</string>
        </array>
    <key>StartInterval</key>
    <integer>2</integer>
</dict>
</plist>
When finished, type "ctrl-x", then "y" to save and enter. Reboot.
This script will:
- try to power on the en1 interface as soon as the script loads
- if it fails (because the interface is not running yet), will try to turn it on every two seconds
- once the interface is on (exit is succesful), then unload the script.
Note that this script assumes the airport interface is named "en1". It can also work with the word "airport" (at least in my tests).
Good luck!

My iphone freezes and its doing it on a daily basis now multiple times and I don't know why.
I've restored it, reset the network settings but neither has worked. It tends to freeze on the move when on 3G but it does also freeze when I'm connected to either my own or another wireless network.
When it freezes the screen goes almost blank but you can still see what was last on the screen faintly with lines all over it. More often than not it will not come back on unless I can plug it in to charge (even when the battery is at 100%) which out and about I can't always do.
I try holding down the home button and the top button, just the top button and the apple logo will come on but then that will freeze as well and the phone doesn't actually come back on.
At first I thought it was the battery as it does it more when the battery is below 50% and then the low battery symbol will suddenly appear when I try to put it back on but today for example it was on 89% and I was on my own wireless trying to upload a photo to Facebook and it froze.
I also thought it was down to Facebook photos when it first started happening but it will freeze on any app that uses 3G and if it does it when I'm on my emails when the phone does eventually come back on and I to delete and re-enter my email accounts otherwise that app just shuts down straight away.
The other thing I tried after researching is turning off location services but it still froze even without this feature turned on.
It's very frustrating so I'm desperate to sort it as I can't afford a new phone, this was a gift from a friend who had upgraded his iphone so I've had his old one. It didn't do this straight away and I can't think that it's done it from any particular moment. I've deleted some questionable apps, just in case, but that's made no difference.
Any ideas? I've found a place locally who can replace the battery for about £30 which I'm lead to believe is quite cheap as I know I couldn't do it myself but could a battery be causing what I'm assuming are network/software issues?
Any help much appreciated - it scares me that my phone will sometimes not come on when I'm out and about as I could desperately need it one day when it does it.

Could be faulty battery. Make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple Store for quick free battery diagnostic testing.
