G4 shuts down but have to wait and manually restart
I suddenly have a problem where if I try to restart my G4 (running OSX 10.4 or OS9 - I have a dual boot with two hard drives) it shuts down but does not restart. If I try to start up immediately it just cuts out, and I need to wait about 5 min before I can get it to start up. I've replaced the battery and tried resetting the CHUD switch on the motherboard, but to no avail. Disc checks ok too.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
G4 (Quicksilver) 733MHz 640Mb SDRAM Mac OS X (10.4.8)
disconnect any peripherals, minimize RAM and leave only 1 hard drive connected, see what happens.

i'm downloading the OS X Mavericks then in the process of downloading till 4.20GB it stops and shut down my Mac Book Pro and automatically restarted. Any answers for this?
The download is over 5GB's so yours is incomplete.
You should be able to resume the download (instead of starting over) at the App Store. -

My Ipod nano 6Th sometimes shuts down when I connect the phones, sometimes it not shuts down, but the volume and standby buttons do not work. If I not connect the phones everything works fine. But with the phones connected it goes crazy. I alredy reset, restore and nothing. If I reset and let the phones connect the up and down volumes buttons start to work. But the power/stand by button don´t. I need to disconect the phones to the power/stand by button starts to works. Anyone already have simmilar problem?
A windows error message appears saying iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to shut down.
let's get a crash log from itunes, and send it to the Apple engineers for a look.
Typically, you'll need to configure Dr. Watson on your PC in order to generate crash logs. Windows start menu -> Run. Type in "cmd". Hit return. At the prompt in the command line window that comes up, type in
drwtsn32 -i
And hit return.
This will create crash logs in Documents And Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson\. There'll usually be a file in here called "drwtsn32.log"
prior to collecting the itunes crash log, delete any existing crash logs in there. (we want to make sure we send the correct crash log.)
Generate the crash, collect the crash log, and and send it as an attachment to this email address.
in the email to Roy, be sure to include the following information:
- A link to the thread on Apple Discussions where the issue is being discussed
- The username you are using in the thread
- The version of iTunes you are using or trying to use
- the version of Windows you are using (mention service packs)
- A concise description of the issue you are seeing
- The exact text of the error message you are seeing -

Ipad mini is stuck on Apple Logo, have shut down but still won't reboot
Ipad mini is stuck on Apple Logo. Have done a forced shut down, but when it starts up again its back to the apple logo - its not moving either
Hi Bonney Fam,
Thanks for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
You mention that your iPad mini is stuck at the Apple logo after it shut down. If you haven't already, try resetting it again:
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
From:
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
If the iPad still doesn't start up past the Apple logo, try this method to reinstall iOS:
If your device gets stuck during startup
When starting up, you might see the Apple logo or a red or blue screen for a long time, or your device might restart again. Try these steps:
Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
Put your device in recovery mode.
When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.
From:
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
All the best,

My iPhone keeps blinking the apple screen on and off, as though it is turning on, but it goes no further. I've tried the two-button shut down, but nothing is changing. What do I do?
First try a Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons
If no joy... Try a Restore...
1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
Restoring > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the Steps in this article to force the device into Recovery Mode.
Make sure you have the Current Version of iTunes Installed on your computer
iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download
Note on Recovery Mode.
You may need to try this More than Once... Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
After you have Recovered your Device...
Re-Sync your Content or Restore from the most Recent Backup...

I use dial-up, FireFox 5.0, Yahoo addition 1.8. My screen load times have slowed down to a crawl. I have to wait and wait for a page to load. (I know --dial -up) It used to be much faster a month ago before 5.0. Is it FireFox or do I look to Yahoo for the problem? I don't know how to sort it out. Using Vista
I'm having the same problem. Dreamweaver is supper slow. Uploading and downloads from the server... any server I use two different servers. It times out all the time. Menus are slow too.
I'm on a MAC Pro, 6 gigs of ram no issues with anything else. I have talked to Apple they have checked everything for me. They say it's Dreamweaver. I've noticed the Dreamweaver is talking to the FTP even when I'm not doing anything.
I've tried cleaning out my MAC caches, turning off file check and check out. Still really slow. I've worked with Dreamweaver for 6 years never any issues like this before. 18 seconds to upload a 4 kb file. 11 seconds to download the same file. -

rMBP: Sometimes, after having been shut down, i have to press the power button several times before the machine starts up. It's 3 weeks old, and this has happened 2 times now. Is there something wrong with my rMBP?
Did you purchase the Mac new?
You have 14 calendar days from the time your items are delivered to initiate a return as noted here.
Even though you are past the 14 day limit, if it were me, I'd take the Mac back and explain what's going on. Your Mac should work out of the box.

when i charge my ipod it turns on to the apple sign then shuts down again wont turn on and has no battery i tried getting a new cable but it still didnt work i also tried to push the home button and power off button and still didnt work also out of warrenty
When you plug it in to iTunes does it show up under devices? Try restoring it. That's the best thing you can do if you're out of warrenty

Why does my 4s just close an app all of the sudden and the apple logo will come up like it's shutting down but doesn't it will go to lock screen after that.
It's definitely a crash. I'd maybe look into reinstalling the operating system.

Make sure you back up first though. -
It's as if Firefox 20.0 never shuts down but only restarts.
Even when I close Firefox 20.0 by clicking the X button on the top right or use "exit," when I open Firefox, it acts the same as if I'd used "restart," namely the tabs don't load until I click on them. Furthermore, the 4 pages I use as my home pages aren't there but rather whatever pages I had up when I last closed my browser.
I have tried creating a new profile, which worked ONE TIME. Then, it went back to my problem.
I have used "restore" to go back to a time before the problem started but that hasn't worked.
I removed the addon I had downloaded in that time period but that didn't help, either.
Thank you for any help you can give. I know you're all volunteers and your time is important.Does it seem like that Firefox is crashing? Try checking if there are any crash reports by going to about:crashes in your browser. Alternatively you can try safe mode as outlined below:
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.'' -
My computer shuts down but the restart feature will not work. It just hangs.
Hello
I have a MS6547 version 1 (645 Ultra Motherboard)
The problem I am having is that my computer will not restart. If I press the power off button in windows it will shut down but the restart windows function will not work it just hangs at (Windows is shutting down)
I zero'd my hard drive and installed a fresh copy of windows but the restart feature still doesn't work. Even when I was in the middle of installing windows when the computer says it will reboot in 15 second that hangs on restarting computer as well/
Hope someone can help
My spec is
645 Ultra Motherboard
2.2gb Pentium CPU
256ddr2100 RAM
ATI Radion Graphics Card
60gb Hard Drive
LG CDRW
Please Help.Hello and welcome!
It sounds like it has a hard ware reason. I suggest you take the motherboard out, to see that there are no stand-offs/spacers/distanser left unused creating a short.
Also, remember to have as little hardware as possible when you install Windows. No extra PCI-cards, USB-devices and such.
If the system has worked well earlier, above still rules, but here are some many other reasons for the described symtoms:

my mail will not open after I click on mail.when I try to shut down my laptop ,it wouldn't telling that mail is preventing the computer from shutting down,asking to quit Mail and when I do mail dose not quit
Mail is open but it is frozen, being this the reason why you cannot open the Mail window. Press Alt, Command and Esc keys or go to > Force Quit, select Mail and force quit it. Finally, you will be able to turn off or restart the MacBook
