Grey screen and all apps crash at once

New iMac 27" + EIZO display + WACOM Cintiq 13HD
While using Adobe CC (Photoshop or Lightroom so far) all the applications freeze for a second,and then crash AT ONCE (Finder, adobe, skype - everything), then grey screen, then everything starts loading up from scratch (drivers, apps, Finder etc.)
It happened three times in two days.
I checked the console after the crash and got A LOT (about 4000) errors like this (all have the same time-stamp):

any ideas what may be causing this, I tried to search but no luck.

I did some more testing:
1. The Crash happens about 30 minutes after turning on Screen Sharing on SKYPE. Not using skype = no crashes for a week.
2. The desktop sharing causes the GPU to fail:

    With a corrupt disk, the install procedure is most likely going to fail.
    How old it the disk?
    You might be able to reformat it to fix the problem. Of course that means you lose all of your data.
    The other alternative is to get a new disk drive and put that in your Mac and install OS X
    Then put the old disk drive in an enclosure and see what can be recovered from it.

    You cannot update iPhone 4 to IOS 8.1.2, the highest you can update is IOS 7.1.2.
    Unless you've iPhone 4S (looks similar to iPhone 4)

  • I upgraded my new Ipad to OS 5.1.1, and all apps have started crashing. As soon as I open an app it crashes right away. Tried syncing, restarting, hasnt made a difference. ANY SUGGESTIONS?

    I upgraded my new Ipad to OS 5.1.1, and all apps have started crashing. As soon as I open an app it crashes right away. Tried syncing, restarting, hasnt made a difference.

    You mention that you have tried restarting, but did you try a reset?
    Simultaneously hold down the Home and the On buttons until the iPad shuts downs. Ignore the Off slider should it appear. This will take ten seconds give or take. After the sut down is complete, press the Onn button to restart. NOTE: this is different from simply shutting down the iPad.

  • TS3274 I use to be able to shut down apps as to not kill my battery by pushing the button twice and all apps running appeared at the bottom of the screen. Then i could turn each one off at a time. Now how do I do that with the IO7?

    Before IO7, I would control the life of my battery by shutting down the apps. I would push the main button on the front twice and all apps that were running in the back ground would appear on the bottom of the screen. I could click on each one to shut it down. Now, I can't seem to figure out how to shut them down. Please help if anyone knows what to do.

    Close inactive apps
    1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
    2. Swipe the app's windows upwards to close
    3. The app will fly off the screen

  • Start up problem-can't get past Apple grey screen and spinning gear

    Upon trying to start up my laptop, got nothing but the apple logo, grey screen and spinning gear. I tried several things to resolve the problem on my own (hardware test said it could not verify the disk/could not start up from the OS X install disk/reset the power mgmt. unit/disconnected all peripherals)and finally went to the Apple store. Genius bar said they were able to start up from their hard drive and suggested that I buy an external hard drive, go home, start up again and back up all files. I bought a My Book. Got home and same thing happened: Apple logo and spinning gear. I am an Apple user of 18 years, but have not had to do much in the way of diagnostics. Have tried fsck routine today that I found on another posting here today. If the Genius guy got it going, I assumed that I could too. I was wrong. Any advice would be appreciated. It looks like this is the end of the road for my Powerbook, but I'd like a shot at recovering data.

    Hi Debbie/Gregg -
    I may have missed something but can't you just put a new hard drive in your laptops? You may not be able to recover your data but it doesn't mean the end for your computer. The same thing happened to my TiBook and I put a new 120Gig hard drive in and it's had a new lease of life.
    I bought a new internal hard drive along with an external enclosure and connected it up to my computer and from there cloned it. Then I transferred the external into the TiBook and put the old drive into the external and I use that as an external now. I realise your hard drives are dead but you could use another computer to so the same thing and just install the OS on it.
    I bought this -

    Then followed the instructions here -
    http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Mac/PowerBook-G4-Ti-DVI/HD-Replacement/33/6/
    Once your new hard drive is installed you may be able to try and repair the old one in the external enclosure?

  • Unable to complete reports, grey screen and freezing

    I was wondering if anyone else is having the problem of getting a grey screen and unable to continue in Oracle when trying the run either financial reports or MPR reports. We have researched the differences in computer hardware and software loaded and basically all is the same. The strange thing is that the reports were working on 2 computers and all of a sudden they are freezing with the grey screen. No new programs were added to either the server or the user.

    Well, an Invalid Node Structure is usually not repairable using Disk Utility. But I see you ran it from the disk (the best result doing this in Tiger). Now it's Invalid Key Length, a little better then the 1st report, but still leaves her down. I would try the Disk Repair several more times. That is what is suggested if DU does not succeed the 1st time.
    This is pretty serious directory damage. Perhaps if Disk Utility repairs were done once a month, it wouldn't have gotten this far. Doing an Archive and install, with the directory having this much damage, is not what I would recommend. If she has nothing to lose, important data, music, pictures then it's worth a try but more then likely it will be problematic.
    But you say no volume showed; not good. Have here try a PMU reset to see if we can get the volume to show.
    I will try to help further if you can tell me if her data is important!

  • Grey screen and cranking noise

    My screen froze and started making cranking noises.  I turned it off.  Now, when I turn it on, it shows the grey screen and makes a ton of noise.  Help!

    Is the loud noise coming from the right of the trackpad?  If so that may indicate a disk crash.  Check the following.
    Boot in Recovery Mode.
    http://www.apple.com/osx/recovery/
    If it boots in standard recovery mode then at least part of your internal disk is working.
    If it boots in network recovery mode then your internal disk may be damaged but the rest of you Mac may be healthy.
    If it boots in Recovery Mode or Network Recovery Mode:
    Run Disk Utility.  This will check if the disk and filesystem are healthy.
    Click on the upper left disk icon.
    (If there is no upper left icon then your disk has crashed.)
    Does the S.M.A.R.T. status say “Verified”.
              If not the disk/SSD is unhealthy and needs to be replaced.
    Click on the icon indented below, usually called “Macintosh HD”.
    Verify Disk.
    If it finishes with a green “OK” message then all is well with the disk.
    If it shows errors in red then you may have found the problem.
    If it has not crashed you may want to backup or do an emergency data copy before proceeding.
    Post back with your results and for details on a possible data recovery.

  • IPhone 4s with ios6 all apps crashing after opening

    iPhone 4s with ios6 all apps crashing after opening. Yesterday  my phone started to crash. Everytime i started whatsapp or others, it stars working at first than goes back main screen. Resetted the device by pushing home and lock buttons. Nothing happened. Tried to format and it's worked again. But i don't want to set my phone from beginning.  When i restored from backups nothing happened. Only hard format fixed. what else can i do with this situation ?

    @alperkilislioglu,    
         Try restoring it but set it up as a new iPhone this time. If that does not work then bring it to Apple.

  • My mac shows a grey screen and spinning gear and nothing else. please help! i want my mac to work again :/

    My mac needed new updates and after clickign update it soon told me there was an error and it froze. I then let it sit fo about 15 minutes adn nothign changed so I restarted it and ever since then all my computer will show is the grey screen and a spinning gear :/ can anyone help me with this problem?

    I had the same issue, and I had recently backed-up my files (mostly because the mac was acting wonky before this even happened), so I did an erase and install. Then I ran through all the software upgrades and installed all of them. When I did a required restart (for the Mac OS X 10.4.11 update) it went BACK to grey screen with spinning ball. Talk about frustrating!
    I think there is something weird going on with the iTunes update and the Mac OS X 10.4.11 update. But one can't be used without the other. So I'm not sure how to update everything safely and get an up to date system, without having all the problems I had before. So now I'm using Mac OS X 10.4.7 so I can have a stable system to do my work, but I can't run iTunes 7.0. I'm too scared to update OS b/c I can't waste another day re-installing everything (for like the third time).
    I'm a pretty new Mac user (year and half) so this may sound really dumb, but any suggestions would be very welcomed. I may start a new thread instead of hijacking this one...

  • Ibookg4 will not go past the grey screen and will not accept a disc

    my ibook will not go past the grey screen and will not accept a disc

    Have you tried starting up in Safe Mode? If not, I suggest that you give it a try. This will take quite awhile longer than a normal startup because it does a file check and repair of the hard disk.
    If this works you will see your normal desktop. Once completely started up in Safe Mode, try to restart normally, and go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility. Click on the top hard drive icon in the left sidebar and note the S.M.A.R.T. status at the bottom right of the pane. What does it say?
    Select the named boot volume in the left sidebar, ("Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it). What is the hard drive capacity and how much space remains available on it? Repair permissions on it.
    See if you are able to do a little hard drive maintenance to help things out.

  • How can I get rid of The Grey screen and boot my macbook?

    Today I was on my MacBook Pro (bought July 2011) and it went to a blank blue screen. I powered it off and tried to restart it. It loaded the apple and spinning circle but it went to a grey screen and froze there. I've read and tried a lot of different things already but nothing has worked. I did the hardware test and it found no problems. I tried to safeboot it.  I tried everything on here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570 except the last suggestion (I'd rather not have to lose all my files unless absolutely nesseccary). I also tried the "hold Command + R keys" to try and get to utilities. Anything else out there that I could try? Not sure what the exact operating system is either.

    I wouldn't assume that's the hard drive. The fact that the screen turned blue all of a sudden isn't necessarily an indication of a hard drive failure. Check out this post I made yesterday:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/21756819#21756819
    My personal opinion would be to try and boot from an external hard drive with the appropriate OS installed. With a 2011 model, I would assume that should be Snow Leopard or later. AHT doesn't catch everything, and I don't know if it even does drive scans for bad blocks. I do know for a fact that it pretty much limits itself to digital interfaces and can't go beyond analog driver stages. For example, if the driver stages of a FireWire port or ethernet port are blown, AHT will report them as being OK.
    If you got hit by a transient, which could indicate an internal supply problem or a line problem if you were connected to the internet via a wired connection or you were running off the charger, there's no telling what it might have caused the drive to do (if it's the drive) and it could easily cause the screen to suddenly go to blue, but what other damage was done?
    My point is that you need to confirm what the source of the problems are. If there's a logic board problem, your drive and data may be OK. If the drive is bad, some of it may still be recoverable. The problem may very well be drive related, but I wouldn't go out and start throwing money at new parts without first confirming what the cause of the problems is.
    Hope this helped, and good luck.
