Gold iPhone5s Experiencing Nonstop Boot   Blue Screen

Please help I am so scared!
So yesterday morning (Friday, May 2) I dropped my iPhone once in the morning. It seemed to be working perfectly fine until 7 hours later. I saw my iPhone and it was completely black, so I decided to turn it back on. The white screen and apple logo is there, and it shows a glitchy blue screen for a splitsecond and then goes back to the apple logo screen and so on, it never stops! I got so scared at that point. I have tried restarting my iPhone. Now it says the connect to iTunes screen. And so I did, and it recognized that it is in Recovery Mode. So I pressed "Restore and Update" but when it seems to be almost done, it goes back to a blue screen and shuts down again, and iTunes says "Error, iPhone could not be restored. (9)
I've tried
Installing new updates on iTunes and my Macbook
Trying to connect it using a different PC
Attempting to restore it loads of times
Letting it sit for 8 hours
This really *****, I've spent so much money on this iPhone. And all my pictures are precious. Is there any way it can be fixed at home without having to go to the Genius Bar?

Hi Matt,
Yes I managed to fix this. It was due to some changes I did to permisions on my Mac. What he has to do is boot in single user mode and and use the chmod 1775 command.
You can have a look at http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1411
I found it really helpful.
Let me know if you need further assistance.

  • Macbook won't boot, Blue Screen in Safe Mode

    Having a couple of issues at the moment. To start off, woke my MacBook from sleep mode and found the screen had shimmering edges, the screen was also displaced (part of the left of the screen was showing on the right. Decided to reboot to solve the issue, when I tried this, got past the Apple logo and wheel, then got a blue screen. Now when I boot, I just get a white screen Tried booting in safe mode but ended up with a blue screen with streaks.
    On top of that when I went into support, my macbook isn't listed under my products and when I tried to enter it in, it said it was under a different account (I did get it through a college course but It was definitely registered under my name and with my account).
    Can anyone shed some light on this, or have any suggestions?

    Actually, just get a blue screen when trying to start up normally

  • OS X Won't completely boot - blue screen, pointer then nothing

    (MBP with problem is 2.0GHz Core Duo 15" MBP. 1.5GB RAM)
    As topic says, g/f woke her MBP pro up from sleeping to type an email. Shortly after opening the mac everything stopped responding. She held down the power button to turn off the mac and then turned it back on. MBP loads past grey Apple screen and shows the progress bar for loading OS X. Once progress bar dissapears then nothing, just a blue screen with the mouse pointer.
    I have already done the following:
    - Booted from Install DVD and ran disk utility. Verified Drive but no isssues. Verified and Repaired Permissions. Still didn't boot
    - Booted in 'Safe' boot. Exact same problem
    - Booted into Single User Mode and ran fsck -fy, no problems reported. I can browse the drive and see files etc.
    - When I attempted to finish loading OS X from the command line I do remember seeing the following error: coreservicesd crashed. Googled but couldn't really find out anything I understood to help.
    What are my options here. The MBP in question is unfortunately about 2 weeks past the Warranty date w/ no applecare but she may take in tomorrow regardless.
    Can I use a firewire cable to connect the two macs and at least get the most important data off if we have to reinstall?
    Thanks in advance for the help!

    That sounds like wake from Hibernation/Deep Sleep - there's no "progress bar" with a normal Boot, only a spinning grey wheel then the Desktop appears .
    I believe this is the screen he is referring to.

  • HELP! OS X won't boot - Blue Screen at startup... No mouse, nothing...

    I have a PowerMac G4 MDD running OSX 10.4.8 (or 9)... About a month ago, it suffered a kernel panic, and upon restarting, it wouldn't load OS X. Now whenever I start the computer, it displays the white screen with the Apple logo and the spinning gear, then it switches to a solid blue screen and stays there. There is no mouse on the screen and the keyboard is unresponsive.
    The computer will boot in safe mode. I have tried removing login items in the account preferences and third party items from the StartupItems folders. But still, I get the blue screen.
    I've tried resetting the PRAM. I booted from the install disc and repaired the startup disk. It said no repairs were necessary. I've repaired permissions on the disk as well. I also booted from the Hardware Test disc, but still, nothing.
    Yesterday I did an Archive and Install from my Tiger install disc, hoping that this would fix things, but it didn't. As a last resort, I'm considering wiping the hard drive and doing a fresh install of OS X.
    Does anyone have any advice? Has this happened to you too? Does this sound like a hardware or software problem?

    Do you have a firewire external drive, or other bootable backup? Try booting from another drive & see if the problem persists. Run Disk Warrior while booted from its CD, or from an alternate drive. I don't think it will help, though, because Archive & Install should create a new directory. If the problem persists when booting from an alternate system, you most likely have a hardware problem. You could install a fresh copy of OS X on your alternate drive to make sure (but not if it's your only backup!).

  • Leopard general issues (slow boot-Blue screen of tolerance)?

    I upgraded it to leopard 10.5.2 a week ago. I thought my old system with tiger (10.4.11) used to boot faster and work faster and I thought I was being cynical. I just checked with my buddy's computer which is completely identical to mine (2GHz intel Core 2 Duo, 2gb ram, 120gb hard disk macbook). She still has tiger 10.4.10. It boots drastically faster. As soon as dark grey apple disappears tiger shows a progress bar showing the log on process and it logs on in less than 5 secs. Overall boot up was around 20secs. First of all I don't know why leopard doesn't have that progress bar. Secondly leopard hangs on a blue screen during startup for another 20 seconds which makes the overall time 40-50 secs.
    I deleted all cache everything and unused files while installing. I never got a blue screen of death either. It is almost a clean install. People might suggest erase/install or archive/install but I checked other forums people suffering with this issue has not been successful to eradicate it this way.
    I checked my logs. they are pretty clean except some launchctl convert stuff.
    I am pretty convinced it is leopard issue.
    I have two questions:
    1) Is Apple aware of this issue (blue screen on startup for 20 sec) and would be address it in next update? or is it not fixable?
    2) Can I somehow have that auto-logon progress bar back?
    3) Sidebar fonts are very small. Tiger sidebar was much easier to use. Is their a way to increase font size.
    In general I am quite disappointed with Leopard. It is much slower especially with respect to finder windows. I wish I could downgrade to Tiger but it is to much hassle..taking backup..reinstalling all applications. I kinda like quicklook too. I'll miss it if I downgrade.
    I would like to know whether apple addresses such issues in upgrades? I am patient.

    I have two questions:
    Actually I count three questions.
    1) Is Apple aware of this issue (blue screen on startup for 20 sec) and would be address it in next update? or is it not fixable?
    Not a problem with OS X. More likely a problem with your installation or setup. I have 5 Macs running Leopard and have no similar problem nor ever have. Although boot times differ with hardware, startupitems, login items, etc. they are not much different. My Mac Pro takes half the time as my laptops typically.
    2) Can I somehow have that auto-logon progress bar back?
    No. It's no longer included in OS X.
    3) Sidebar fonts are very small. Tiger sidebar was much easier to use. Is their a way to increase font size.
    Not aware of any control over this in Leopard, but if there is someone else may let you know.
    If you want to improve performance on your computer then try some maintenance:
    Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
    For disk repairs use Disk Utility. For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.0 is now Intel Mac compatible. TechTool Pro provides additional repair options including file repair and recovery, system diagnostics, and disk defragmentation. TechTool Pro 4.6.1 is Leopard compatible; Drive Genius is similar to TechTool Pro in terms of the various repair services provided. The current version, 1.5.1, is Intel Mac compatible.
    OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep.
    OS X automatically defrags files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems.
    I would also recommend downloading the shareware utility TinkerTool System that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old logfiles and archives, clearing caches, etc.
    For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the commandline. Note that presently AppleJack is not compatible with Leopard.
    When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
    Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
    1. Retrospect Desktop (Commercial - not yet universal binary)
    2. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
    3. Synk (Backup, Standard, or Pro)
    4. Deja Vu (Shareware)
    5. PsynchX 2.1.1 and RsyncX 2.1 (Freeware)
    6. Carbon Copy Cloner (Freeware - 3.0 is a Universal Binary)
    7. SuperDuper! (Commercial)
    8. Data Backup (Commercial)
    The following utilities can also be used for backup, but cannot create bootable clones:
    1. Backup (requires a .Mac account with Apple both to get the software and to use it.)
    2. Toast
    3. Impression
    4. arRSync
    Apple's Backup is a full backup tool capable of also backing up across multiple media such as CD/DVD. However, it cannot create bootable backups. It is primarily an "archiving" utility as are the other two.
    Impression and Toast are disk image based backups, only. Particularly useful if you need to backup to CD/DVD across multiple media.
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.

  • IMac will only safe boot (blue screen when not safe booting).

    A buddy asked me to help with his Intel based iMac. It was giving a blue screen when trying to boot up (and an odd cursor along with the blue screen). The cursor moves around the blue screen but looks like two cursors. One cursor is a normal arrow pointer, the second is a rectangle about .25 inch wide and 1 inch tall made up of about 10 horizontal lines.
    I'm very familiar with Macs and OS X and was sure it was probably a messed up preference file (most likely login preference). It wasn't.
    Here's the odd circumstances:
    I have an intel macbook that if I use firewire target disk mode I can boot just fine off his iMac.
    His computer will not boot off my Macbook that is in firewire target disk mode.
    We cloned his hard drive to an external firewire hard drive (using Carbon Copy Cloner), my Macbook boots off it just fine, his iMac will not.
    He's been wanting to go to Leopard so we upgraded his computer (did basic upgrade), but it still blue screened (with odd cursor).
    Then we did an erase and install. Still no difference in behavior.
    I would almost be convinced that it's a hardware failure, but it will safe boot every time.
    Here's what happened when it died. His son was playing a Star Wars game (I'm not sure which one). The kid was in the middle of the game and paused it when it was time for dinner. When the kid went back to play, the computer was frozen. They tried everything to unfreeze it and ended up powering it down. Started the blue screen ever since.
    He's going to contact Apple (it's barely still under it's warranty) but I was hoping someone here has another idea what it could be.

    I found this topic while trying to find an answer to my problem. It seems we have a similar thing going on with our imacs (although mine is a much older crt imac). I'll copy and paste my original post from the imac board :
    Hi
    I received a free imac snow (G3 500mhz) from someone. He told me it was broke, and someone told him the logic board needed to be replaced.
    I brought it home and tried to start it up. It gave the '?' folder icon. I started up from an OS 9.1 cd - Success! Except there was no HD. I opened it up and discovered that the HD wasn't connect to the ATA cable. I was able to start up to a previously installed Tiger. Except once it booted it would quickly freeze - the mouse pointer would turn into a scrambled beach ball (very strange) and wouldn't move.
    I did some research and found about the potential problem with OS X and the imac's firmware. I restarted from the 9.1 CD and installed that OS. Everything seemed fine and was running ok (from my limited time on it). I then DL'd the latest firmware for the imac (4.1.9.) and tried to run it. Except the message came up that the latest firmware had already been installed. So i guess thats a good thing. I don't have to worry about firmware being a problem.
    So i did a zero out wipe on the HD and installed tiger from the dvd. But on the first restart after installation (where i should go to the set up assistant) I get the scrambled beach ball and it freezes.
    I thought perhaps the HD is faulty and ran disk utility on it - it came back as fine. I doubled checked to make sure it was set to 'master'. it sure was. I decided to swap out the HD anyways since i can't see what else could be the problem and put in a different 30gb IDE drive. I once again zeroed out the drive and did a fresh install of tiger. On restart i get the same scrambled beach ball and the freeze.
    I guess i should describe the scrambled beach ball. It's seems like the beach ball icon, except the bits that make it up are out of order and glitched out.. perhaps a video problem?
    Could this really be a logic board problem? It was working in OS 9.1 fine. It starts up from system CDs and DVDs fine. Wouldn't a logic board exhibit the same problems on those systems?
    Anyone have any idea?
    Update - starting in Safe mode (restart with shift held down) works, and i was able to update to the latest version of Tiger, but once i restart with the full system i get the same problem.
    This seems to me that it ISN'T a logic board problem, but more of a system software problem. Now my question is how do i isolate and fix the problem in Tiger?
    I guess i'll post this question in the Tiger forum, but if anyone has any ideas please let me know.
    Thanks

  • Slow Boot (blue screen) & Sleep mode doesn't works!!!!!

    Hello,
    I have a problem with my Powerbook G4; when i connect the G4 with another G4 via firewire, one of this Powerbooks shutdown unexpectly and wont boot again...
    i had to make a fesh install of Mac OS X Leopard (again), to try solve this issue; after this the boot is extremely slow and stays in blue screen by around 5 minutes.
    another problem is the sleep mode, when i try to turn to sleep mode the screen turns in black ..

  • Slow boot, blue screen, red face

    I will make this as short as possible. Today when I turned on my old G5 Power Mac, I thought it was broken. I got the blue screen, and then nothing. I was in the process of hooking it up to my laptop for the Target Disk Mode when I noticed that it had now fully booted.
    Here is what I did yesterday:
    First, I updated my system, with everything Apple said. I do not remember what all of them were, but there were three updates, and it took a couple hours. After that, when I had a restart message, it was very slow, and I eventually manuaaly turned off the computer and restarted. I also then dowloaded a program from version tracker called "encrypt this", or something like that. When I tried to encrypt a folder, twice, the computer "timed out."
    Now it takes a long time to boot (several minutes), but once it is going, I notice no problem with performance. It is not slow at all. Also, I put the dowloaded program in the trash bin, and emptied it, but it is stil very slow to boot. Any thoughts on the problem or solution would be appreciated.

    I reinstalled Leopard this evening, and then reloaded everything from Time Machine. Considering the long time the computer took to reboot, I doubt the problem has been solved. Still, I have a new problem from the install. It is now asking for a password, and will not let me in. I have never been asked for a password before, even when I installed Leopard the first time in September. I used the password that I use for Apple (I have two, and I used them both), but each time the little window jiggles and goes back to the password screen. I have no idea what that password might be, and no idea how to learn it since I cannot get the computer up. How can I do this?

    will give a try to install msi drivers using my old system and then connecting the HDD back to this new rig.... Hope it will work...!!!!
    That activity is pointless.  You cannot install drivers for stuff that is not there on your old system.
    Please do yourself a favour and stop dancing around this whole problem (which seems like a pseudo-problem to me).  Putting on a fresh installation of the operating system is the first thing that should be done on a new system configuration.  Even if you manage to get stuff working without reinstalling, you are working with a potential driver mess and a confused Windows Registry that may throw problems at you that you may currently not be an issue.

  • HT4623 my iphone5 goes to a blue screen then restarts,,,, is there a cure

    MY IPHONE 5 GOES TO BLUE SCREEN THEN RESTARTS ...... IS THERE A CURE?

    Hello Jerryg1960,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities
    I would suggest resetting the iPhone with this process:
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    From: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
              http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    IF the issue persists, and you cant otherwise use the phone, you may need to put the phone into recovery mode and restore it from a backup in iTunes.
    iOS: Unable to update or restore

  • N570GTX Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC ----- No Boot / Blue Screen

    Hello all,
      I recently purchase a brand new N570GTX Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC.  Previous to installing the card I had a gt250 with the latest Nvidia drivers installed (285.62).  I installed the n570 and booted up no problems.  I was able to see the new card installed in device manager and also confirmed it in afterburner.  However, I wasn't able to set or view the voltage settings even after enabling in preferences and restarting afterburner.  Although, the remaining settings / stats seemed to work fine.  I was also able to do a full kombuster (ultra settings) benchmark with no problems, receiving a decent score and topping out temps in the high 50's I think.  I also played a few games and turned up settings with no trouble.
      When I rebooted my machine as the windows load screen popped up I got a BSOD and an error referencing nvlddmkm.sys.  All reboots there after either failed to the same BSOD error or rebooted the machine.  Booting into safe mode had no problem as did booting into normal mode if I uninstalled all nvidia drivers first.   As long as I boot into safe mode or there's no drivers installed it doesn't fail.
      I've tried every version of the nvidia drivers I can find.  286.62, the newest 290 beta drivers, the 266 versions that came on the cd and multiple 270's version that were noted the most stable in internet forums...all produce the same results.  I then updated the bios on my motherboard to the latest.  I also reinstalled a fresh copy of win7 x64, and ran all system updates include service pack 1.  I did all those updates with my 250 installed.  After I had a solid system I put in the n570 and rebooted.  I again had a perfect boot and was able to access the card (not the voltage via afterburned or any info via live update 5).  I was able to run benchmarks etc once again.  Upon a reboot, it failed back to the BSOD again.  I repeated the multiple driver tests, all failed the same.
      If anyone could suggest something other than RMA I would be happy to give something else a try.  It seems silly to RMA a card that works so well on first boot until I reboot windows.  But I'm out of ideas...
    System specs:
    N570GTX Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC
    Intel Core i7 950
    6gigs Ram
    730 watt power supply (w/ dual pci-e power connectors)
    Gigabyte x58a-ud3r rev2 (newest bios - standard clock speeds - default voltage settings for pcie)
    Win7 x64 Service pack 1 (all windows updates)
    Thanks for any help.

    Also, if it helps to note, on the initial install (both times) the card was stable for hours until I shut down and rebooted.  If it were a power issue wouldn't it be unlikely to be stable for such a long time (even during stress tests) and then not even be able to load windows correct after a reset?  Seems like a driver issue to me, however as I've said I've tried them ALL haha.
    Thanks for the help

  • My iMac booting blue screen after Java update

    Hi:
    I installed the latest java update and after that my iMac can't boot normally or even start in safe mode. I tried some of the fixes in the forums but nothing really seems to work. Appreciate any help you can give me on this.

    Reset the NVRAM/PRAM and Reset the SMC.
    BTW, which OS X? iOS info is useless.

  • Select- Color Range- Results in Blue Screen (PC)  (driver out of date)

    I've been using the CS6 beta about two days.  While experimenting with color range I experienced two consecutive blue screen crashes.  The first time it happened,I was working with the color range selector and was replacing the selected areas with another color using the paint bucket.  About the third time I attempted this, my PC blue screened.  The second time, I opened a photo, went to Select>Color Range and got an immediate blue screen crash.
    I then went back to CS5 and I've been playing with the same scenario with no apparent problems.
    My PC is a store built computer.  It consists of an MSI 990-FXA GD80 motherboard, an AMD Phenom 1100t CPU, Asus GTX550 Ti graphics card and 8 gig of RAM.  It boots from a 60 gig SSD and my programs reside on a 500 gig hard drive.  The OS is Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.  CS6 is using the hard drive for its scratch disk and Photoshop is using 4339 mb of the 7232 mb of available RAM - I haven't changed that.  I'm running CS6 as administrator because the way it installed, it would only run in that fashion.
    One disappointment during the installation was CS6 made no attempt to read my preferences from the CS5 install.  That may be covered in another post, I've not yet looked.
    Please keep us informed as new betas are released, because I would like some time to work with this puppy before plunking down big bux for the upgrade.  As it is now, I'm going back to CS5.  I get mighty nervous when my super computer blue screens!

    The GPU is often at root of issues like yours. I've had so many problems with Nvidia drivers for their gaming-oriented adapters (like yours) that I finally went with one of their workstation cards. I have a Quadro card with just enough RAM to make Photoshop happy. The workstation drivers are optimized for reliability, the consumer card drivers are optimized for gaming and that often means they're less stable and reliable with Photoshop.

  • K8N neo Platinum Win XP SP2 random system crashes/Blue screen

    I have recently built a new pc with the items as listed in my signature.  Some of the compontents were new (RAM, HDD and VIdeo) and some were second hand (CPU, M/B, Keyboard and Mouse).   I found that when I install WIN XP the system seems ok.  But after I install any SP1 or SP2  which are required to run the USB2.0 my system crashes randomly and I get a windows blue screen and an auto restart.  in the last week it sometimes lasts a day or so then it crashes.  Other times it will crash within 5 minutes of start-up.  I found a forum topic about a similar problem the other day but when I went looking for it again I couldn't find that topic.  In that topic there were comments about PSU's and their ability to run the K8N Neo Platinum.  In my specs are my PSU details.  Can anyone advise if my PSU may be the problem or if there is any other problem.
    I have made a WIN XP boot disk with SP1 and I have an SP2 disk I was given by a PC shop.  If you are able to help or need further info to be able to help please let me know.

  • Blue screen assistance

    Hi everyone,

    "It's not a true crash, in the sense that the Blue Screen was initiated only because the combination of video driver and video hardware was being unresponsive.
    In recent Operating systems the "Timeout Detection and Recovery" (TDR) components of the OS video subsystem have been capable of doing some truly impressive things to try to recover from issues which would have caused earlier OS's like XP
    to crash.
    As a last resort, the TDR subsystem sends the video driver a "please restart yourself now!" command and waits a few seconds.
    If there's no response, the OS concludes that the video driver/hardware combo has truly collapsed in a heap, and it fires off that stop 0x116 BSOD.
    The first step would be to install the newest driver and it it continues to malfunction,
    revert to a much older driver as some new drivers are somewhat buggy.
    If playing with video driver versions hasn't helped, make sure the box is not overheating.
    If you have a desktop try removing a side panel and aiming a big mains fan straight at the motherboard and GPU.
     Run it like that for a few hours or days - long enough to ascertain whether cooler temperatures make a difference.
    If it does, it might be as simple as dust buildup and subsequently inadequate cooling.
    I would download cpu-z and gpu-z (both
    free) and keep an eye on the video temps
