Grey screen freeze

Hi. At work, i've got an IMAC thats freezing at the grey screen and apple logo.....and I can only start the machine in about 1 in 5 attempts. I've tried a few things but eventually resorted to a clean install of Snow leopard, but the problem is still there.
Any ideas?

Thanks.... I actually tried that and it didn't work. I even ran the hardware test as the FAQ suggested and it came up good. I just bought this PowerBook on refresh and was hoping nothing was wrong. Then I archived and reinstalled OS X and I haven't had a single KP since (knocks on wood). I don't really know what was wrong, but it seems to be fixed now. Thanks for the help.

  • Grey Screen Freeze after 10.6.7 update

    I have 2 iMacs. My wife's is 2008 3.06 Ghz 24" model with Snow Leopard. Just updated to 10.6.7, and on re-boot we entered perpetual grey screen freeze ups. Followed guidance from support article - specifically to remove peripherals (attached were 2 USB devices - HP inkjet printer and WD 500G portable HD used as Time Machine. Also connected to LAN via RJ-45) After re-boot I changed network to airport to access LAN. When I re-inserted ethernet jack the grey screen immediately came up. Tried various combinations and ethernet connect always kills machine. Any ideas? I'm holding off on 10.6.7 update for other iMac.

    Because I've had strange problems with past system update downloads, I now always get my system updates from http://support.apple.com/downloads/
    I always use the Update Combo version. It installs a fresh set of all previous updates as well as the new one. This gives you a fresh beginning with system 10.6.x. Since I adopted that practice, I've had no more issues with updates.

  • Yet another Grey Screen Freeze Victim

    Been scouring these posts for a couple of moths now trying to solve this problem...
    My 2004, no apple care, no longer warranty'd, G5 freezes after the start-up tone on the grey apple screen, no pinwheel, the fans ramp up to full speed and I eventually have to give up and force shut down by holding the power button. It hasn't booted past that point in a couple of months. Never had any problems before this doozy, now my G5 is a loud paper weight.
    I have gone inside and reset the SMU, didn't do anything.
    I have unplugged everything, including power, and tried booting up adding one thing at a time, didn't do anything.
    It won't let me boot in safe mode.
    It won't let me reset my pram, i hold down command-opt-p-r, but the grey screen never comes and it doesn't restart itself.
    Ran AHT and the results came back...
    logic board PASSED
    mass storage PASSED
    memory PASSED
    video ram PASSED
    Rebooted after AHT, and freezes right back at the apple screen...
    I'm starting to go insane...

    I would check it first. When mine went, I had no response from my Mac at all; just a light on my power button; absolutely no boot at all.
    For G4's and earlier models, check out things in Texas Mac Man's Battery, PRAM, PMU tutorial on the subject.
    G5 Tower users check Apple KB article HT2580 on DIY (Do It Yourself) Instructions. Click on the PDF for Battery.
    Here is the late G5 SMU reset.
    Early G5's use PMU rest, as shown in the tutorial. The battery for late G5 + G5 iMacs and earlier iMacs, Mac Minis and Intel Tower Macs is this one.

  • Macbook pro will not shut down, how do I get past the grey screen freeze without a hard shutdown?

    Recently upgraded from 17" Macbook Pro to 15" late 2013 Macbook Pro Retina. I have an intemittant problem, (that I also experienced with my 17" Macbook) where when I log out or try to shut down I get a grey screen, no cursor, no spinning beachball... no way to escape a blank grey screen. Seems to be happening more often.

    Reset SMC.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Choose the method for:

  • Trying to Install S.L ... Grey Screen Freezes

    I'm trying to update to Snow Leopard, and can't get through the install.
    The install disk loads properly, I go through all the prompts, and installation begins properly. About 10 minutes in, the computer restarts, and loads up the grey page with apple icon. Here it freezes and sticks on this screen until I restart the computer.
    There must be something simple I'm doing wrong or a simple fix, but I can't find it. Help! Anyone?

    Where did you get the installer disk from? What Mac are you installing on running which OS?

  • Help !!! freeze and stuck on grey screen, difficult to reboot, here is my EtreCheck report

    Help !!! I experienced more and more issues since I upgraded to mavericks and i brought my MBP 15" (from 2011, out of warranty) to the Apple genius bar a couple of days after my computer started to freeze and crash on a grey screen with less and less possibility to reboot it (tried all advices i could find on the forums to reboot in other ways, etc. ). The overnight tests at Apple gave nothing, they just decided to reinitiate the software and concluded that the problem was solved.
    But the problem happened again: when i reloaded my backup from Time Machine, i could run the whole process till the end then when I was asked to restart, I couldn’t open the finder, my screen was stuck on a light grey.
    I could reboot it (always in maintaining the off button to stop the machine or in using the single mode) but it’s non stable, after too many manipulations, the screen freezes or divides in 2 parts with lines, etc. And I have to try again different ways to reboot…
    I took a new appointment to the Apple Genius bar, but in the mean time, I tried to repair the authorizations, and I have to say that the list is really long, even if I did the operation more 3 times…
    I think there is a software conflict somewhere and find the possibility to check the system with EtreCheck (thanks! I will also bring this paper to the Genius bar technician).
    Please, would there be someone who could read this information and gives me some advices and opinion on what could be problematic, what to do etc.
    In end, what is very weird to me:
    I could read on this forum that “startup items” are no more necessary since OS 10.4. I tried to delete the ones that appear here in library/startupitems, and found another one which is not mentioned in this EtreCheck list : startouc
    Also when I tried to delete those items, it was refused by the finder with the message saying that this items are in use…
    Another point: I uninstalled the application Chiavetta Internet 42 a week ago when I started to have the problems. I was in Italy and this is a usb key with pin for internet. At the moment thought about a possible conflict with the key and deleted every item concerning this installation. This is because I don’t understand that it appears now in the “User login Items”.
    Thank you so much in advance

    Hey thank you! I tried to send you a first answer but Firefox blocked... Again thank you for your advice and the detailed process to follow, hope it can help! - Also sorry for my English which is not my primary language.
    Also don't know how to edit the Anonymous UUID... is it in the apple discussion account?
    Here is what i found in Console > Diagnostic and usage information > System diagnostic report:
    there were 4 lines as titles, and after Firefox crash there are 5 now.
    I will send you the content for each of them, but in a new message each time in case it freezes again.
    1st line starts with diskarbitrationd, ends with .shutdownStall

    riyazfrombangalore,
    your 13-inch Mid 2009 MacBook Pro requires 1066 MHz RAM, but you have 1333 MHz RAM installed. Try replacing the 1333 MHz RAM with 1066 MHz RAM — Macs can be picky about the RAM which they find acceptable.

  • My old MBP (2005) often crashes, freezes or shows grey screen at start up. Also track pad often does not work. I have re fomatted the HD and reinstalled system but to no avail. Genius bar says possible faulty HD, but suspect logic board, any ides any body

    My old 17" MBP (2005) often crashes, freezes or shows grey screen at start up. Also track pad often does not work. I have re fomatted the HD and reinstalled system but to no avail. Genius bar says possible faulty HD, but I suspect logic board. All checks out OK on the Apple Diagnostic bench. Can a Logic board go intermittant?? Any Ideas any body??

    Ive repaired 1000s of laptops over the years (translate: diagnose and replace parts).
    Its not that old, Ive owned 100s of laptops (most were free) ....some I still have are nearly 13 years old and still perfect, ....some extremely expensive ones died in under a year.
    other than becoming obsolete at some point, there isnt really any "will spoil on" data like Milk for solid state computer parts, ....alas.
    You can have a $5000 laptop die in 4 months, and a junker one keep kicking after 10 years.... Ive seen that firsthand countless times.
    Common logic dictates that "very expensive = long life" in computers,..... but all the repair people will tell you just the opposite.
    I know you have a gripe, I get that all too well honestly .

  • 17" Intel iMac Kernel Panic, Freezing at Grey Screen and Beeping!

    Hi there,
    I have a new 17" Intel iMac (Intel Core 2 Duo 2 GHz, 250 GB, 1GB Memory with OS X 10.4.8) that keeps getting those "You need to restart your computer. Hold down the Power button for several seconds or press the Restart button." messages.
    It all started on Sunday when I tried to wake the computer (the computer went on Sleep by itself) and got that message so I restarted the computer but it froze on the grey screen (even before I got the Apple) and it beeped 3 times and then the light on front just kept blinking 3 times. I finally was able to erase and re-install OS X and everything was fine until I left the computer for a while, it went to sleep again, and then the message came back. I restarted and it seems to be fine but I'm worried the beeping and freezing will come back.
    The first time this happened, I didn't know enough to "log" the kernel panics but I do know that I deleted a lot of the applications (iWeb, Garage Band, etc.) that I didn't need and fidged with the Share folder in the Users folder. I use a Flash Drive a lot and always left it connected to the keyboard's USB drive. Also leave my iPod Nano connected. After I reinstalled everything, I only deleted the Garage Band demos, installed and deleted the Firefox 2.0 and Opera (wanted to just stick with Firefox 1.0) applications. Only used the Flash Drive a little and haven't connected my iPod on yet. Trying to isolate the problem. I can't remember doing anything else.
    Here's the log from the latest kernel panic:

    I don't know what this part is about because I don't have a Printer hooked up to the computer.
    The only other thing I can think of is I also installed WireTap and StuffIt before the initial crashing. I heard StuffIt was causing problems on some Intel Macs. Also changed a lot of the icons and changed the icon for Preview. I "verified" my hard drive and "verified and repaired the disk permissions" (I'm not that knowledgeable about computers let alone Macs). I also checked my hardware by pressing D while the grey CD OS X was running and get this:
    4MEME/4/40000000: 2F244040
    usually during the initial testing but when I restart and try it again, it's fine.
    Well, that's all I can think of. Any thoughts?
    Thanks a lot!

    Thanks for the reply and links!
    After the first problems, I re-seated the RAMs. Does this mean I have to buy new memory? This is a pretty new iMac, bought it in May and have only been using it for maybe two months. Haven't done a whole lot with it but I usually keep a lot of programs open at the same time. I have Adobe CS3 installed too and it says it needs at least 1 GB of memory. I've heard people saying it's best to have as much RAM (this Mac can only take up to 3GB) when using those programs. Maybe it's getting too heavy? Should I only keep one program open at a time? Also, which part of my post indicated that it was memory problems? What the "panic.log" stated or that "4MEME/4/40000000: 2F244040" stuff? Anything else I can do to not let this happen again?
    Thanks again!

  • Mac freezes, shows grey screen then starts back up

    For the past two weeks I have had the issue of my iMac suddenly freezing for a few seconds and then it turns to a grey screen for a few more seconds before it starts back up on my user area.
    All programs get shut down (which is annoying as I do graphic design so I'm usually on PS or AI and lose work I've done since last save). Programs which are set to start up automatically upon login do not start up. Thankfully firefox will start back up when I click it and continue from all the tabs I had open.
    I cannot seem to find a source for this to be happening... The programs which are always running when this has happened previously are: Mac Mail, finder, Messages, Spotify, Wacom Desktop Center. This morning it happened when none of my adobe programs were running.
    Has anyone had the same issue or knows what's up?
    I tried to go to apple support but it said I need to pay £35 for someone to answer my question.

    Hi,
    Try ; Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    and : About NVRAM and PRAM
    to ensure the proper operation of the SMC.
    and if still issues persist,  try: OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
    Cheers

  • I load cbc.ca and it loads ok then a grey screen covers the page and freezes everything - doesn't happen on other browsers

    I load cbc.ca - I assume other sites but haven't test - and it loads ok - then a grey screen covers everything and freezes the content- Other tabs work fine for other pages just not cbc.ca - what's wrong. This happens on all my copies of ffox. So not just a single computer.

    If you use extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) that can block content (e.g. Adblock Plus, NoScript, Flash Block, Ghostery) then make sure that such extensions aren't blocking content.

  • Mac OS X Leopard suddenly freezes with grey screen and must restart

    This is the second time in 3 days that a grey screen comes up and the computer freezes. Can anyone figure out what the problem is? Is it an upgrade issue?

    I too have had this problem. It is not a Kernel panic, as far as I can tell. I have two Apple Cinema Displays connected. Both are dark, yet this time my mouse arrow is present. Most other times the screens are just dark. This is the first time I can ssh into my box and look at processes running. Other times the box was dead to the world. This most often happens after: a) lock screen, or b) Screen sharing into the box remotely. When I arrive back at work, the system is on, the screen is black, ssh into it may or may not work. This time I tried to kill all my processes one by one. Nothing released the machine display. Screen sharing into it also yields a black screen. I wish I knew how to restart a process like "WindowServ." Reboot computer via ssh command and display are up and running again.
    I ran MemTest extensively from single user mode. No errors. I switched boxes, for I bought two identical systems (one for server, one for workstation.) I switched hard drives and ram. Issues still exists on both machines.

  • Macbook pro freezes & after a hard restart i get a grey screen &  horiz bar

    i have a intel 2.3ghz macbook pro that is freezing up... and the only way to unfreeze it is to do a hard restart.... then when it is starting i get a grey screen with a while apple logo and a horizontal progress bar near the bottom of the screen? the computer seems to run fine after it starts until it freezes again... usually it freezes a couple of times a day... i have run disk utility and repaired the permissions and also done a disc check.. the disc check said that the hard drive was ok.... i have backed it up via time machine and superduper back up... my laptop is running osx 10.6.7 and it says that the software is up to date... the hard drive is a 500 gig hitachi and was replaced a couple of months ago... i have 105 gigs of free space... any ideas on what is going on? and what i can do to fix it... i am heading out of the country for a couple of weeks on monday...

    I reloaded OS X 10.6 with the install disk (CD) and then upgraded back to 10.6.6 using the downloadable 10.6.6 Update Combo file from the Apple site. Below was the exact sequence:
    1. Download 10.6.6 Update Combo file connected via a direct ethernet connection. I wasn't able to accomplish the download via wireless because my computer crashed before I could get the entire file. I saved this on an external hard drive, also, just in case. I also backed up vital files.
    2. Reinstall 10.6 via install disk. Put disk in drive and restart holding down "C", per the instruction blurb on the CD. This took about 45 min. Note that the "progress" time didn't seem to match what was going on.
    3. After the 10.6 install was complete, I opened and ran the 10.6.6 Update Combo
    After (3), everything has been fine. Total time was about 1 hr. All of my files/programs seem to have made it through untouched.
    I've been tempted to try the 10.6.7 Update, but am still gunshy from the experience. I have a feeling that if one were to use the 10.6.7 Update Combo in (3), things would work out fine. I'd love to know if this is the case, but for right now, I'm pretty happy that my computer is back to normal. Hope this helps.
    BTW I think you can probably restore via Time Machine, but the above is what I did.

  • Screen freezing grey - intermittent

    Hi all,
    My MacBook Pro has started to behave strangely with the screen freezing and turning a grey color for a period and time and then coming back to life. It used to be occasional but its happening more frequently now. It seems to come and go, and might last a few minutes or longer. A few times it lasted so long, that I had no choice but to switch off power and restart. Everything just freezes and it turns grey and sometimes get more and more saturated grey after 30-60 seconds. I can tell the CPU is still processing but I hear the normal sounds with applications running. I tried putting it to sleep and then wake it up, but the grey is still there.
    Any ideas?
    Paul

    Sounds like a hardware problem with the screen or graphics card then, best give Apple a call.

    What operating system version, and do you have any backups of your data off the machine? TimeMachine? Option Key bootable clones? Storage? DVD's?
    A reinstall of the operating system may be in order as a last resort, so if any of these steps on these links get you into the machine, make sure to backup your personal data (Music, Pictures, Documents, Movies) off the machine to a non-encrypted  powered external drive regular storage drive (not TimeMachine as it might be corrupted too) and disconnect as soon as possible.
    Good Luck and report back all what you tried.
    Also report what change occured before this tragedy happened, was there a  Software Update? A EFI firmware update? Etc.
