Freezing on login after reboot

Everything was working great for a few days. Now when I try to login, after I enter my password a progress bar is appearing. It is filling to about 1/4 of the way before it freezes. I've seen another thread describing a similar situation but could not find it again to post there.
Additional information:
-2014 Retina MacBook Pro purchased in August
-FileVault is enabled
-i noticed that wireless had stopped working so I restarted. That's when this issue started for me.
-I use a Thunderbolt Display at work
-The last time machine backup was from just before I updated to Yosemite. I have data saved after the time that I really do not want to lose.

Resolved for now.
I arrived at work and connected to my thunderbolt display and it quickly booted with no problems at all.
I suspect the issue is related to network connectivity and FileVault somehow.

WLAN AutoConfig Service crashes 3 or 4 times after you first login after rebooting?

Hi,
My lenovo came with windows vista - I upgraded to 7 when I got a chance. I have W7 Professional. I have all the Lenovo drivers installed except access connections. I don't like the tool. Anyways, Windows manages my wireless adapter. I have the weirdest issue -- right after I login after rebooting, the service "WLAN AutoConfig" crashes 3 or 4 times in sucession any time something tries to access the net. If you restart it enough times, it eventually stays up and never crashes again until you reboot. Also, the fancy aeropeek stuff crashes too. The task bar becomes non-transparent. That eventually recovers as well.
I have another t61 thru my work running w7 and it doesn't have this issue. The difference between the two of them is mainly that it has the intel based wifi card instead of the atheros based one.
In the event log, I see:
The Windows Audio Endpoint Builder service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 2 time(s). The following corrective action will be taken in 120000 milliseconds: Restart the service.

I don't use it anyways.

Imovie freezes up even after rebooting

I have a 4 month old imac, toay I tried to use imovie for the first time and discovered that
it is not working. It freezes and will not respond even after rebooting. There was a message
telling me that it was currently downloading my movies, but the download never progressed
and I had to force quit to leave imovie.

Linda,
I'm not sure what is going on, have you tried posting to the iMovie forum to ask?

Facebook losing login after reboot

I don't seem to have anything untoward in my Cookie or Security settings, but quitting and restarting Safari doesn't give me the problem, only rebooting does. Then my login to Facebook is gone.

It seems a repair permissions solved it.
What triggered this issue in the first place was Facebook told me my certificate in the first place was not valid.    Updating to Safari 6.1.6 from 6.1.4, and adding the 10.7.5 2014 Security Update #4 followed, and then it wouldn't keep the login on reboot.   Repairing permissions finally solved it.

Mac book pro freezes at login after upgrade to mavericks

Hi Peeps,
I'm new to Apple and this is my first Mac Book Pro... I bought it Oktober last year...
Today i wanted to upgrade to Mavericks... All went well, the mac installed... and now it is done.... The system launches until the login screen and then freezes... I've been reading about it on al possible forums... Don't know what to do and in two days i leave abroad again far away from civilization... this mac is my only connection to home and the normal world so yes..i'm a bit desperate
I tried the cmd+R thing to reinstall the OS X - same result...
Bit afraid to do this erase thing cause i'm not sure to do it right - cannot really afford to loose data on this pc apart from the OS.
Stupid me i didn't make a backup with Time machine or something else... can anyone please help me out here ????
Any advice is welcome...
Thanks all !!

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

No login after reboot

Does anybody know why i couldn´t login as Administrator to the adobe lifecycle workflow admin-page after an restart of the computer on which it runs. I always have to reinstall it.
I know that i have the right password, because before the reboot it worked well (i didn´t change the standard password yet).
This problem drives me really crazy.

Hi Jens
It may be that when you synchronize to LDAP, you have an LDAP user named "administrator". THis might conflict with the built-in user also called "administrator".
Can you try creating another user, give them all privileges, and see whether you can log in as this user after a reboot.
Also, try doing a search for "administrator" in the adminui BEFORE your reboot, and see what entries you get.
Just a thought....

Can´t login after reboot ?

My MacBook Pro went in to reboot and when it starts up I can choose between "My usersname" or "Guest", but when I click on "My username" it just keep loading a bit and then show the Mac Stop sign.
I can log in as guest and log in trough Coomand+R, but when I try doing a "Reinstall Mac OS X" it show "Recovery HD" but "This disk is locked"
I use FireVault, can this also be an issue ?
Hope there is a Mac genius here that can help me ???

Hi merchant express, and a warm welcome to the forums!
If Command + s would work
I think you'd have two choices...
Reset OS X Password Without an OS X CD...
http://theappleblog.com/2008/06/22/reset-os-x-password-without-an-os-x-cd/
It'll boot like a newly setup Mac, but all your stuff should still be there once filling out the stuff.
But since it doesn't...
Archive & Install, which gives you a new/old OS, but can preserve all your files, pics, music, settings, etc., as long as you have plenty of free disk space...

2011 MBP (10.8.4) freezes exactly one hour after reboot

Hello,
I'm having an issue identical to this poster insofar as I can tell, but some test results are different for me. Exactly one hour after rebooting or starting the computer, applications become unresponsive, video stops playing, then a little while later sound stops playing, and the cursor becomes a beachball if interacting with an application. Some windows can still be dragged or brought to the front of the screen for a short time. Eventually everything (except sometimes the cursor) is frozen and the machine never recovers from this state (for at least 15 minutes, I haven't let it go longer).
Most of the time this is accompanied by a CPU use spike and the fans spinning up, but not always. I have trawled through the system logs and disabled lots of LaunchAgents to no avail, so let me just list a few things I've tried and their result.
Disabling wifi: no change
Removing RAM one slot at a time: no difference
Memtest: clean results, froze after 1 hour anyway
Apple Hardware test: clean result on extended test, progress *sometimes* halts at the end of the third or fourth pass after the "Main Logic Board" test had finished (during message "Testing in progress... Extended testing in progress").
System console/system.log shows no distinctive output immediately before freeze, unless I'm doing other things like playing audio or using the internet in which case the wifi interface has activity or CoreAudio turns outputs on, but this is different every time it crashes. I did find that GoogleSoftwareUpdate was implicated in one of the console logs, so I disabled and uninstalled that without effect. I recently started using Time Machine on an external drive, so I disabled that and removed the drive I'd selected from Time Machine preferences - no improvement.
While watching Activity Monitor during one freeze, I saw that cprefsd (root) had spiked to 260% CPU usage, fseventsd (root) to 128%, and several other processes to 100% (UserEventAgent, cprefsd, iTunes Helper, and apsd (root)). Everything else was at 1%.
Symptomatically, this appears to be a software issue (not an instant crash, elevated CPU usage, regular timed interval), but I've been unable to isolate the cause. I strongly suspect Time Machine is responsible (fseventsd is linked to it) but having disabled it in System Preferences I'm not sure if it should be eliminated. Alternately I believe this may be symptomatic of logic board, memory controller, or graphics card failure, but am at a loss to explain the regular (non-random, non-usage-dependent) occurrence. I performed the syslog test prescribed by Linc Davis in this thread and found only regular shutdown codes, so that also seems to point to software issues.

This morning I tried leaving the computer on in Safe Boot mode and the freeze occurred on schedule, with the windows becoming unresponsive at 60 minutes in, and the the beachball appearing as soon as I moved the cursor.
If I can get a full backup sorted (only essential stuff is cloned right now), I'll try a clean install of OS X from the recovery partition to see if it nixes whatever process is at fault. I have an appointment with the Genius Bar tomorrow evening, but if this is really a software problem then I'm not sure how they can help (except to replace it at cost). Are there any other tests or fixes I can try? What's the likely prognosis?
Thanks a lot for your help.

Apple replaced the logic board and the fix and it didn't fix the problem. To their credit, they refunded the repair fee. I ended up tracing the issue to a third-party drive I'd bought from NewEgg, a Crucial M4 SSD, which had a very peculiar firmware bug:
Correct a condition where an incorrect response to a SMART counter will cause the m4 drive to become unresponsive after 5184 hours of Power-on time. The drive will recover after a power cycle, however, this failure will repeat once per hour after reaching this point.
I would have probably gotten the update notice had I purchased direct from Crucial (or had it come pre-installed if I'd bought it a month later). If you have a similar issue, check your drive firmware!

Unable to remove login items (Revert after reboot) iOX10.5 iMac
I am having issues and permanent encounter in having my removed login items reappearing after reboot. I have very MANY of the same programs in 'open at Login accounts' eg: Messenger,Safari,Skype,Evernote,Dropbox,antivirus, but they are listed dozens of times. in this 'open at login' area.
Here's the steps I have taken:
1) Open Applications, Account Preferences, cluck my administrator acc, select program to delete, click on - and wait.
2) Remove some login items (with or without unlocking the lock, doesn't seem make a difference, tried both)
3) Login items are now fewer
4) Reboot
5) voila, the removed login items are still loaded and displayed in login item tab.
How does one solve this? Tried to google, but....

PS3 freezes at menu after startup

I have had this issue too , where my ps3 freezes on the xmb, I had a 60gb Fat and 320gb Slim and it happened on both.
I luckily got a swap out as i have continuous play, so thought at least one was ok. BUT BUT BUT..... the brand new one was fine at first and after downloading updates was fine, but after a restart,,,, epic fail..... it also started freezing I tried the rewipe and start again, Database rebuilding, etc and after 4 days a basicly messing about with it i believe i have the answer!
So here it is:
I connected my ps3 up to wifi, as part of logging into the wifi i use, it needs to login (BT FON). to do this i have to start the Internet Browser and login before i get online. Thsi is great and works and i can play games online.... HOWEVER after a restart, i believe the PS3 retries to connect online, and because it cant access the internet and is blocked because i havent even had chance to login yet, it freezes!
I believe this is the issue, as soon as do the double beep method and reset the settings (option2), and reset it up so there no network settings, it works fine, and doesnt freeze.
so try it guys,, it works for me. option 2 and then try, and then connect to the net again, restart and see if it freezes.???
SONY FIX THIS NOW !!!!
I WOULD LIKE TO THANK YOU SIR. I just moved house and while waiting for BT to enable my broadband I connected using BT WIFI hotspot. PS3 worked fine until I restarted then it locks up trying to log in... And you have to force power off causing it to go through a disk rebuild - rinse and rebuild MODS PLEASE CAN YOU REPORT THIS TO SONY - PS3 crashes after reboot when you need to login to a hotspot..
The PS3/PSN is designed to run via a broadband connection, attempting to connect via hotspots or mobile internet tether just isn't good enough, it can an most likely will give you problems. The best way is a wired connection via ethernet cable or homeplugs, if you have to use Wifi make sure it's over a home network with a strong signal, anything below 90% to 100% signal strength isn't much use.

MBP freezes at login - Please help!

hey all!
please,please, please help me...
...just now it started that my mbp crashes (or freezes) at the login.
yes, i have installed all updates and firmware etc. but days or weeks ago and till now it worked without any problems.
i get to the login screen and see the cursor blink once and then it is gone and i can't sign in.
i did a restart in safemode and repaired the rights and checked the volume (which is ok) but still it freezes.
adobe version cue is not installed (or any other startup item).
i'm quite new to the mac so could anybody please help me out here?
thank you!

Oddly, mine is doind the same. It was working fine on Monday. I left it overnight to let the UNIX processes run overnight.
Had a day off yesterday. Came in this morning to find the machine locked solid and roasting hot!!
I have used the install disc and repaired permissions and repaired the disc. No use.
I have reinstalled the OS from the supplied discs and run the updates and still it freezes at login. I get as far as selecting my user and typing the password and then it freezes.
I'm now going through the safe boot option. After that I'm going to have to rebuild my account since it is the only thing left.
I don't understand how the machine can chew itself up so much overnight that it hangs.
I have to be honest and say that I'm less impressed with the MBP. My old 700MHz G3 iBook works better than this.
The powersupply (I think) whines at me.
The wireless connection is a best, flakey
The OS seems to want to crumble under it's own weight.
Oh...and now the it has rebooted it can't get past the 'Starting Mac OS X....' screen.
If anyone has any bright ideas I would appreciate them. I'm now going to boot in single user mode and do apples recommended pokes to see what happens.

Mac Pro freezes at login screen

Mac Pro (2008, dual 2.8GHz quadcore, OS 10.6.8) is set up with
Energy Saver settings: computer sleep 1 hour, screen sleep 5 minutes
Security settings: require password immediately after sleep or screen saver begins
After the computer goes to sleep, upon hitting a key, the login screen appears. However after typing password, there was a message "checking password" and then the computer freezes. I've followed recommendations in Mac Pro Freezing: Checking Password
After the computer goes to sleep, the login screen is frozen. I cannot even enter password. After hard-rebooting it, it appears OK.

Question: how can I find out what causes the computer to freeze and how can I fix it ?

I would say yes to the verbose mode and go one further and make it permanent. Coming to OSX from running Tiger on an XPF install on a beige G3 system (totally unsupported by Apple), it was ALWAYS a smart move and even in new machines running hardware they're built to, you can't lose. For the times I do have to reboot, it's good to be able to watch the startup, as you catch immediately if there's a problem with anything. It is verbose after all...
To turn the mode on, you open the Terminal, and at the prompt, type in
*sudo nvram boot-args="-v"* and hit enter. It will nag you about using the terminal (if you haven't done so before) and you enter your password, hit enter again and you're good to go. (if you want to turn it off, type in *sudo nvram boot-args=* and hit enter and your password again)

Macbook air 2013 freezing at startup after yosemite update

My 2013 Mb air has started freezing at startup. performing a safe reboot seemed to help, but once I restarted immediately after rebooting it froze again. A second try apears to have done the trick, however, now my volume is completely off and non-responsive, and Safari is not really working. This is one day after updating to Yosemite.

same for my MBA 2013 model...its taking very long to show me the password box after clicking the username.....it happens everytime i restart...once it starts, everything is fine...if i had to force restart it (it froze couple of times), it takes really long to reboot...and again login is a big deal...any ideas/tips ???
