Freezing and color wheel problems

A week or two ago my G4 began acting up (10.4.11). It would freeze, Force Quit wouldn't work, and then the screen would go black and I would have to restart the machine all the various ways the manual instructs. But I could not find Disk Utility on the Install Disc 1 as the manual instructed (p. 62); so I reinstalled all of OSX. Things were fine for a few days. Then the color wheel started appearing again, Force Quit wouldn't work, and once the screen has simply gone black. This usually happens on Safari or Firefox. I'm not sure if it's happened at all on Eudora or in Microsoft Word. Until now the 1 1/2-year of laptop has been perfect. Might I have a virus? Would Disk Utility>First Aid help if I could find it?
Thanks,
Rob

Rob:
First, I note that your profile lists your OS as 10.1x. Since no iBook G4 can run 10.1 it must be a typo. Right? If it is, please correct it, as those of us who respond look at those things to help us make more targeted responses without having to ask too many questions.
I don't understand why you are not able to find Disk Utility. As I outlined in my directions for repairing the disk you after you select language, you go to the Installer Menu in Panther and earlier, or the Utilities menu in Tiger and later.
Since you keep having issues with the spinning beachball I suggest a total reformat and erase, then re-installation. Here are step by step directions:

Mid-2010 MacBook Pro: freezing and spinning wheel

Hi there,
I have a mid-2010 MacBook Pro (I know, old) that's been in very good condition. I upgraded my OS to Mavericks in May, which is when it started being slow and crashing/freezing around twice a week. For example, just doing normal things like surfing the web or checking the Airport or battery life will suddenly freeze the cursor which will then turn into the spinning wheel of death. Sometimes I can wait it out if it's a few minutes but sometimes I have to manually turn off the computer and then turn it back on when it's been hours of no change or improvement. I know it's probably best to downgrade back to Snow Leopard but I'd really like to keep my OS. Are there other things I can do to optimize my Mac? I've tried keeping fewer files on the desktop and emptying out the trash often and it seemed to help for a while. Other suggestions?
Thanks for reading!

Wow, that post looks like a mess...I will try to make it more readable.
Thanks for your reply. I had to wait a few days for the problem to crop up again. I followed your instructions to the best of my ability. The thing is that the problem (i.e. freezing and spinning wheel) happened at 8:19 and the closest messages in the Console were are time stamped 8:17 and 8:25. So I will put them here for you to look at if you don't mind:

I tried to send an email and attach a photo and color wheel has been spinning forever

I tried to send an email and attach a photo and color wheel has been spinning forever. Clearly it is still trying to send the message and it's been 45 minutes. I can't use my mail anymore.

First off, did you check your internet conection? Your network connection might not be very strong. Try powering your device and turning it on again, see if that works.

My Macbook starts up, goes to the white screen with the gray apple, the little loading sign loads, and color wheel appears, and DOES NOT STOP PEIROD!

My Macbook starts up, goes to the white screen with the gray apple, the little loading sign loads, and color wheel appears, and DOES NOT STOP PEIROD!
Even when I restart, shut it down; or when it runs down to no battery, when I plug in the power cord for a while, it loads up to the same stinking screen!
PLEASE HELP ME!

Restart the computer and immediately hold the option key down.
If the computer boots and you see two hard drive icons, use the arrow key to select the Recovery drive, and press Return.
You will get to a screen that looks like the image here:
http://www.apple.com/osx/recovery/
Select the fourth item and press Return.
In Disk Utility, select the hard drive in the left column, then First Aid, then click on Repair Disk.
When that is done, quit DU and restart the computer.

STARTUP but no icon and color wheel turnin with no stop

When I starup my Imac 10.6.3 I have the universe image (the one of the desktop) and the color wheel turning but notting else, the mouse answer cause the wheel it's moving on the screen but nothing else......what may I do?
I think it's a problem in the fonts or the Sistem and Library that surely I did something wrong yasterday. I could startup in safe boot but everythink it's very slow and I have not sound and not all the functions are working.....help me please!!!!

Boot with the SL install disc and reinstall the OS. BTW, I strongly recommend updating to 10.6.8. 10.6.3 is woefully outdated.

PhotoSmart 8450 aligning the cartridges and color matchingr problems

I have problems with aligning the cartridges and color matching on my PhotoSmart 8450 printer.
Aligning the cartridges
I just replaced a cartridge on my PhotoSmart 8450 printer. I always use the original Vivera cartridges.
After replacing the 343 tricolor cartridge, the 100 gray cartridge suddenly gave smudge results.
I did a lot of Clean cartridges and Align cartridges before getting acceptable results.
The clean cartridges printout still gives small imperfections in the top grids.
Color matching
Most of the time I print on plain paper. Ocasionally I try to print photographs.
In fact my PhotoSmart 8450 never really printed photographs in the right colors.
Always too much blue and too little red... To solve this I decided to use ColorMunki Photo.
But on the Colormunki test print some of the colors are smudgy.
The settings are Paper type (HP Premium Plus Glossy), Quality (Best: 600dpi, PhotoREt), Real Life Photography (everything off), Color Management (I tried ColorSmart/sRGB or Managed by Application).
The result is stripes and or smudgy appearance in some of the colors.
Doing the same on plain paper (Standard or Best; ColorSmart/sRGB) gives good results.
What can I do to solve both problems?
Thanks for helping.

Hi,
It looks as if you have done a lot of troubleshooting already, however it maybe that the cartridge is displaying minor color mix which should be apparent if you try to follow procedure in this support link, the stripes or small imperfections you have mentioned may be linked to partially missing color or colors which could also contribute to the appearance of photographs printing in the right colors.
Hopefully this will give some assistance in resolving the issue.
Thanks

[SOLVED, PARTIALLY] Xorg 1.5 leaves me with freezed and colored screen

I was using xorg-server 1.4 with xf86-video-i810 and xf86-input-keyboard 1.3.1 and it was fine. Today, I upgrade my system and xf86-input-keyboard was upgrade to 1.3.2. With this upgrade, I was able to log into X but my keyboard was unusable. And since I do not have the old package of xf86-input-keyboard (version 1.3.1) in my hard disk, I am unable to go back.
So, I tried to upgrade my system completely including xorg-server 1.4 to 1.5 and xf86-video-i810 to xf86-video-intel. Then I tried starting up X and it gives a colorful screen with vertical lines.
Searched forum a bit and came to know that I can remove my xorg.conf since new xorg detects things on its own. Hence, I deleted xorg.conf and enabled hal in rc.conf. But this also gave me the same result.
Thirdly, I tried removing xbindkeys since there was some mention that it creates problem when starting up with X, but to no avail.
Finally, I tried using "hwd -u" and "hwd -xa" to get an xorg.conf as it was mentioned in some post. it too did not work.
Can someone help me get out of this mess. I'm not able to post links to other posts or my xorg log since I'm on links to browse net and using it first time.
Waiting for your help.[

After trying lot of things and not being able to get xorg-server 1.5 work with my system, the only way remaining was to build xf86-input-keyboard 1.3.1 using abs. Here is how I did it (will help those who does not know how to build using abs just as I did not know).
copy the following files in a folder.
/var/abs/extra/xf86-input-keyboard/PKGBUILD
/var/abs/extra/xf86-input-keyboard/new-server.patch
open PKGBUILD file using some editor, e.g. nano. and change the following lines to look like this
pkgver=1.3.1
pkgrel=1
Note, the version and release has to be changed.
Now run this command
makepkg
This will download a file and after a while you will get the following error:
validating source files with md5sums
xf86-input-keyboard-1.3.1.tar.gz FAILED
Now run the following command
md5sum -t xf86-input-keyboard-1.3.1.tar.gz
THis will give a long series of letters and numbers. Note that down and again open PKGBUILD file. Go to the end of the file and you will find 2 similar series of numbers and letters. Replace the first series with the number you have noted down. Save the file and exit.
Now again run
makepkg
This time, the process will continue and will not fail. You will get the installation file in the same directory, named like xf86-input-keyboard-1.3.1-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz.
now, install this file
pacman -U xf86-input-keyboard-1.3.1-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz
Do the same for other files, i.e., xorg-server 1.4 and xf86-video-i810-1.7.4, etc., if you happen to not have them in your hard disk.

Macbook pro freezing and start up problems

Hi, I have a 2011 model macbook pro that has recently started freezing without an apparent reason. When it freezes I can still move the mouse around but everything I click is unresponsive, and remains so untill I force it to reboot. In adition to this I have also been having problems when it boots up some times, in which it gets to the pale blue startup screen and then gets stuck there, and again it remains unresponsive untill I forc it to shut down and restart.

Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. 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.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro 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.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

Major Freezing and Power off problems.

So this is going to be kind of a long post, but if there is anyone out there who knows what the **** I can do to solve this issue I would really appreciate it. I bought an 8gb iPhone when they were first released last summer. Just 2 days ago the phone started to power itself off if it had been in sleep mode for more than a few minutes. I tried everything in the book (reset, reset settings, restore, etc.) Nothing helped. I went to an apple store and since the genius there was able to reproduce the issue they just gave me a brand new phone right there. Awesome right?! Wrong! After syncing the new phone with iTunes I am now having even worse issues. The brand new phone powers off in the middle of calls and other apps. And sometimes the phone will freeze completely. I tried everything in the book again. Finally I did a restore, and this time tried erasing all media content (music, photos, videos.) This seemed to do the trick as I didn't have a problem all night and pretty much all day. But just about 15 minutes ago the same problems started again! I'm losing my mind over this! Please help!

It was taken out of a white box at the store. On the side of the box there was a label that said "Replacement 8GB iPhone."
You probably got a bad refurbished unit. It happens. If they rebuilt a unit with an intermittent problem, and they don't catch it during testing, the next guys going to have a problem. I repaired a lot of RCA XL-100 solid state modular TV sets in the 70s. Every module we got from RCA was rebuilt. I would say we had problems with about 10% of them. They would work out of the box, but usually would act up after they got warm.

Over-saturation and color profile problems

Adobe Bridge CC color settings are set to North American General Purpose 2.
Adobe Photoshop CC is synced with Bridge for color management. PS working space is sRGB
The thumbnails and previews in Bridge match what opens in ACR and Photoshop. When I view the thumbnails in Win7 file explorer they are oversaturated. When I veiw them in web browsers they are oversatured and in some instances there is an intitial moment where they look one way, then the image transitions quickly to a more saturated version.
In Photoshop under View > Proof Setup it is set to sRGB. When I turn on Proof Colors I can see the oversaturation in Photoshop.
I am using a Spyder4 Pro to calibrate.
I have an Asus PA24 wide gamut monitor.
I see the same oversaturation on other consumer level (narrow gamut) computers and monitors.
I've seen similar threads and I apologize if this is repetitive. The other threads got so long and off topic that I couldn't find my specific solution in them. If you know of a thread that may help, please refer me to it. Or if you know the solution, that would be most helpful. Thank you.
Below is an example of Bridge and file explorer showing the same file differently. The Bridge view is what Photoshop is showing me too.

Steve Lenz wrote:
So my assumption is the monitors profile is not the same as the files tagged profile
My goodness, no. If they are, you get what's known as a null transform - IOW the whole color management chain is disabled.
Your document profile is what it is, sRGB, Adobe RGB etc. When that file is sent to the display, those RGB values are remapped into your monitor profile. Put in other terms, the doc profile is converted, on the fly, to the monitor profile. You need both, one is converted into the other.
When you run the Spyder software, it creates a profile and sets it as default monitor profile on OS level, where Photoshop finds it by itself. It also runs a general calibration, but that's not relevant here. Photoshop is only concerned with the profile, which is a description of the monitor's behavior in its current (calibrated) state. Just run the software and let it complete, don't do anything.
Just to get on to some firm ground here: Try to set Adobe RGB as default monitor profile in Control Panel > Color Management > Devices (reboot). Since this is a wide gamut monitor (it is - isn't it?), Adobe RGB is in the ballpark, and it's a known good profile. So that's roughly how it should look.

LR 2.5 and color profile problems with Samsung XL2370

Lightroom 2.5 / Windows XP3 / CS4 Photoshop / Samsung SyncMaster XL2370 LED monitor:
Changed monitor from Dell to Samsung's new LED SyncMaster XL2370. Updated Nvidia 7900GS card driver to latest version available.... resulting in a complete mixup of photo colors in Lightroom2.5 as well as CS4 Photoshop CR2(raw) and Tiff files; white becoming red, blue becoming green....., so really wrong!!! JPEG files are not affected.
When I change Color Settings(RGB) in CS4 Photoshop from ProphotoRGB or AdobeRGB1998 to Samsung monitor color profile, colors get at least more or less right.( I don't know how to do that in Lightroom?).
How can I resolve this situation? My complete photo archive is at stake obviously.
Thanks in advance for your help and support!!!
Paul

Thx Ian for your reply! Some more questions...
-Is it "normal" when unpacking/installing a new monitor and updating card drivers that it mixes up color profiles? Your solutions seem still pretty expensive!
-How come that when using other (non Adobe)tools (e.g Canon Zoombrowser EX) colors are OK?
-I know how to specify color profiles in CS4 Photoshop but how do you do that in Lightroom?

Freezing and Rainbow Wheel after watching videos.

My Macbook mid 2010, 17", 8GBRAM, MAC OSX 10.6.8, keeps freeziing and the rainbow wheel appears anytime I watch a few minutes (usually 5-30 minutes) of videos on various search engines, softwares or whatever they're called (divx, quicktime, vuze etc..)
The computer is running at normal speed, and I think it doesn't do it when I'm doing other things on the computer that doesn't involve watching videos. I just got a new hard drive since the original one failed last month, don't know if that's relavent. Updated some plugins thinking that might be it, but it still happens. Can't press cmd opt esc to force quit or shut down. Have to hold down the power button to turn it off and restart to get away from the frozen spinning rainbow. It doesn't stop spinning but remains frozen even after several minutes and beyond. Will probably continue to be frozen if I let it continue without shutting it off via power button.
Any insights most welcome.

NGTX560 Single Fan Edition, freezing and sound stuttering problems

I've recently just built a new computer,
CPU- i5 2500k,
Motherboard- Gigabyte Z68M-D2H,
Ram- G.Skill Ripjaws 1600mhz 8gb(4X2kit),
PSU- Coolermaster Extreme plus 700W 52A single rail,
GPU- NGTX560 single fan edition, no overclocks whatsoever on anything.
Storage- Seagate 500gb HDD 7200Rpm Sata
OS- Windows 7 64Bit edition.
Display- Monitor is a LG IPS235, 23.5', if it even matters
When I try to play games it starts to lag, and freeze while causing sound stuttering and then completely freezes the whole computer forcing me to reboot the system. Using the 285.62 drivers.
Games for example include Starcraft 2, which when I open used to freeze straight on the loading screen forcing an immediate reboot. I allowed it through my firewall and now I get past the loading screen and can log in, but straight after I log in, sound stuttering occurs and then the whole computer freezes forcing me to reboot. Another game as an example is Killing Floor, I never got past the "Tripwire interactive" loading screen, looked on google for some fixes, after modifying some .ini files for Killing Floor I was able to get into the menu's, went to options and clicked on display to change some of the graphics settings, extreme rips in the image occured, sound stuttering and frozen on the spot. Retried again but this time didn't touch any settings at all, joined a match, the game loaded but as soon as I entered it froze forcing me to reboot. Need help please thanks
Edit: just tried Starcraft 2, made a custom match vs a bot, got into the game for 20 seconds, started mining minerals then it froze again, this time I can hear the audio still playing perfectly while the image is frozen, mouse can move around, keyboard still works. rebooted after observing these features

Sorry but i have no other video card to test if my system is stable

MSI Cyclone R6850 Power Edition - Freezing and Driver recovery problem

I've just built a new Gaming PC and am having stability issues along with lower than average benchmarking results.
Randomly, the screen will freeze, sometimes go black then re-appear and an error message from the system tray will appear “display driver stopped responding & has recovered”. The system will then operate as normal until the next freeze.
I have tried all versions of the 64 bit drivers available from the MSI website, with no change in the issue. 3DMark11 benchmarking results are several hundred points below average, the same with Furmark, as the below results show;
My system is running at stock, out the box speeds, with no overclocking on my part. The components are listed below;
Cooler Master Elite 430 Case
Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 600W Modular Power Supply
GigaByte GA-P67A-UD4 (Version B3) Mobo
Intel Core i5 2500K unlocked
4GB 2x2GB Corsair CMX4GX3M2B1600C9 Memory
Coolermaster HYPER 212 PLUS COOLER
MS Win 7 Home Prem 64bit OEM
I'm happy to run any diagnostic/benchmarking software to help identify the issue.

Thanks for the quick reply,
Unfortunately, I dont have access to another system that would be able to power the card.
I've already booked an RMA with the vendor, but am worried that they will reply with "sorry, the issue is with configuration/software" and be landed with the shipping expenses. The vendor is www.scan.co.uk
