Help. G Drive freezes while rendering, hard reboot only way out.

I have asked about this two prior times in forums.
When rendering in FCP X, the G-Drive loses communication with laptop. Freezes FCP X. Only way to unfreeze is hard reboot (pushing down power button). Convinced it was a dying G-Drive, I bought a new one, cloned the old one before running Disk Warrior. Same behavior on the new one, so it cannot be the drive. It is a 1TB G-Drive 7200rpm, connected via firewire 800. Spent 2.5 hours on the phone with Apple support, nothing. I do not think they could even understand the issue, and I talked to 4 different people. One of them told me you should always have projects and events on your internal OS drive for editing, not attach any external drives (no, I am not kidding). They seemed to all think I was using Aperture for some reason, weird, since I never mentioned that program and do not even own it.
I am a pro here, and I am not doing anything I should not be. I have run disk warrior on all disks involved. I have repeated this process in different projects with multiple types of media, making me think that the media is not corrupted. I have used disk utility several times, no errors or permission issues. I have trashed render files, preferences from the library, and re-installed FCP X.
I am now left to buying a new everything, but of course I cannot afford that
I read on G-Drive support page about these drives sometimes freezing up, but my issue does not relate to those.
I could really use a pro's pro or someone who has been down this road. I have been dealing with this since Tuesday, I dont have to tell you how far this has me behind.
2009 MacBook Pro
Processor 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Software OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)
G-Drive 1TB 7200 rpm, firewire 800 connection
G-Drive mini (the new one) 1TB 7200rpm firewire 800
editing AVCCAM 720p24fps, AVCCAM 1080p60fps, 720p30fps (all from various projects)

That is the next step I suppose. I had to pay $99.00 for the support on the phone, extra care just expired. Trying one more time this morning with phone support. Thanks Tom.
Still certain projects do not seem to have this issue. I also just installed the free trial of Pro Maintenance Tools, was not able to find any corrupt media.
It said from the crash reports that it may be the graphics card. The card in this computer is well suited for FCP X, but I suppose may be failing. I am under the impression you cannot upgrade this card on a MacBook Pro.

I am having trouble with computer freezing, spinning wheel. The only way to get out is to manually shut off computer and reboot.

The issue usually occurs when computer goes into the screensaver mode. When this happens, none of the keys are opperable and the round wheel/ball just continues to spin. The only resolve is to manually shut down the computer witht the button on back of the monitor/hard drive. Not sure if this is bad for the computer to shut down this way or not.

I starting having this "colored spinning wheel" problem too! It started about two weeks ago and like the others, every time I go into my Yahoo mail, I get the spinning-wheel and the only way out is to "X" out of the site. Sometimes I can make it through a few notes, other times the problem starts as soon as I click on the first note. I searched google a few days ago and saw a response to this problem that said I should "uncheck" the 3 items in the "Auto-fill" preferences in Safari (Safari-Preferences-Autofill) and that should help. It did not. I also went in and deleted cookies, cache and history, but that didn't work either, or if it did, it only took a few clicks to experience the problem again. One of the times I went in to delete cookies I noticed over 100 cookies and other website data stored and I had only been on perhaps 2 or 3 sites (CNN, google and yahoo and perhaps Apple), and I never click on the adds. Don't know if there's any significance to this but I thought that was an awful lot of "cookies" for just a few clicks after previously deleting cookies. Also, I believe I have the latest version of Yahoo mail. I actually have 2 Yahoo accounts and the spinning wheel is a problem with both of them, same for my wife. Any help would be very much appreciated.
I have a MacBook Pro purchased last December with Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Safari version 5.1, an Intel core i5 processor, 4 GB of memory and a 320 GB HD with very little loaded on it.

The hard drive in my iMac is on its way out. I have an EHD (2TB), can i use this as my main (only) drive?

The hard drive in my iMac is on its way out. I have an EHD (2TB), can i use this as my main (only) drive? ie unmount the 'C' drive and use the external hard drive as 'Macintosh HD'?

If the EHD was, originally, formatted as an Mac OS extended (journaled) format with GUID partition scheme, then you can designate this drive as the startup drive in OS X preferences panel.

Just picked up my Macbook Pro (Oct 24th) to find that it keeps freezing on me - only way out is to crash it via the power button. No particular pattern to it. It can happen on opening, or clicking on Safari - or when it's backing up on the TC. Ideas?

Picked up my new Macbook Pro Retina display on October 24th (2013). It runs Mavericks. Keeps freezing on me - with no pattern to it. Sometimes when it's backing up, sometimes when it opens, sometimes when I click on Safari. Only way out of the probelm is a crash shut down using the power button. Nothing else works. Anyone found a fix to this yet?

Safe Mode deletes some system caches that may help.
Startup your Mac in Safe Mode
A Safe Mode boot takes longer than a normal boot so be patient.
Once you are in Safe Mode, click Restart from the Apple () menu.

In Yahoo Mail, when composing an email I get an "Asking to leave this page" panel; it does not matter whether i choose stay or leave, the panel pops up again....and again...the only way out is to Force Quite Firefox and start all over...help please...

Thanks for responding....but isn't your potential solution designed for Windows users? I have a Mac.
If it does apply to Mac, I am also hoping for something simpler as this could take weeks to isolate the problem and it would be more efficient to use another browser for mail
Also, I should have added, this problem occurs only occasionally and seemingly only when I am taking some time to compose a message

MacBook Pro Freezes while rendering menu's

I Got a new MacBook Pro 2.2Ghz (Nov 2), with plenty of hard drive space left (80G), decided to create an iMovie which was great no problems here, then decided wanted to burn to DVD. Created a DVD using the Wedding 07 theme and then went to try and create the disc image.
The Mac freezes after about a 1/3rd of the way through while trying to render the menus, causing me to do a hard reboot. I read several topics in here, trying to fix it:
Deleting the com.apple.plist file
resetting the permissions,
using an older theme (got further but still froze after about 2/3rdss of rendering menu's).
Setting the chapter buttons to still's rather than moving images
All to no avail still cant get it to work.
I created another short iMovie, with no chapters, just one menu, put some pics in, music etc and that worked. This leaves me to believe the problem lies in having the chapters in the DVD.
I know quite a few of you have experienced this, has anyone found a way of getting around it or is it we have to wait until an update is released from Apple?

I've been having the same problem with my macbook pro since november. I've been watching these forums to see if anyone has figured out the problem but I can wait any longer so I called apple. I've spent at least 8 hours on 5 different phone calls with 5 different people over the last two weeks. My computer still is not fixed. And from the sounds of the people I've talked to, they have no idea that there is even a problem with some of the macbook pros. I have done everything that they can think of including completely erasing and reinstalling my operating system and testing idvd with a file sent to me from apple. I was able to narrow down my problem to having videos in the drop zones of submenus. I can burn a dvd with as many submenus as I want as long as there are pictures in the drop zones. It burns fine with a picture in the drop zone. I can even burn a dvd with video in one menu drop zone and pictures in the rest. It doesn't matter which menu the video is in, as long as there is only one menu drop zone with video the dvd will burn. Is anyone else getting the same result?

New Mac Pro (late 2013) crashes / freezes while rendering or editing in Premiere Pro CC

We recently purchased a new Mac Pro desktop (Late 2013, 16GB memory, D700 Graphic Card, 2.7 GHz -12 Core, OSX 10.9.3) and we are running Adobe CC on it. When using Premiere Pro CC (7.2.2) I am having major issues while rendering and editing. About 50% of the time when I try to render it starts off real fast then just freezes. This happens in Premiere and Media Encoder. Sometimes I can just Force Quit Premiere or Media Encoder and other times I have to do a hard restart on the entire computer because the entire computer freezes. The computer will also occasionally freeze whenever doing simple editing or stacking layers. The computer will also just decide to suddenly stop and restart when editing or doing simple tasks like browsing the web. Additionally there has been several times if the render does finish, the final video will have digital glitches throughout the video. I have to redo the render once or twice and it will finally be fine. This all is happening several times a day. This never happened on our previous Mac Pro, but we were not running Mavericks. I used Migration Assistant to transfer from old computer to new computer. So I don't know if this is an a problem with the actual Mac Pro, Mavericks, graphic card or Adobe? But right now I am very frustrated as you can imaging spending all this money for a computer that has been giving us more issues than our previous computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with "Model Identifier." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

MSI Z87-GD65, Freezing while gaming, then reboot loop/bsod/total failure.

Hey fellow MSI'ers
Im hoping to find a solution for my problem i have been getting. I build a custom gaming rig a few months ago (specs below)
Sinds a couple of days iv been getting wierd problems, System runs fine, i can do everything watch movies do work stuff. But when i start gaming it will work great for about 15-30 minutes, then i hear a click/beep thru the sound system, and a total pc freeze, screen freezes nothing works.
So i hit the reboot, then the system decides to turn itself off and get into a reboot loop, turning on for few seconds then turning off again for a few back on for a few, etc etc.
Only way i can get it running is pull the power, make sure the Motherboard has no charge left, then wait a bit and replug the power. Most times it will boot up fine and story starts at part 1 again.
First off i thought it would be temperature, tho im running a almoost ull watercooled system, (Ramm + cpu + video) and i put up temp controlls on my seconds screen, and they never got above 35, on any of the components.
Now seeing my build it is extreemley hard to quickly test a diffirent component, been running memtest with no problems, But when i do graphx/cpu stresstest/benchmark i get the same issue.
As i stated before it has been running perfectly for few months.
I read that PSU might be a problem, compatability wise with Haswell, tho then it wouldnt have worked for so long and just now giving these strange problems.
What i tryéd so far:
-Reinstall windows
-Flash bios
-clear bios
-unplug as much as possible
-diffirent ramm
-Running with or without crossfire enabled.
All same problems, i hope somebody has a idea without having to pull apart my custom build.
Specs:
-Cooler Master HAF XB
-Intel Haswell 4770k
-MSI Z87-GD65
-2x Asus 7970 in Crossfire.
-Corsair Dominator GT 2x4gb
-Corsair ForceGT 128GB SSD
-Antec TruePower 1200
-2x 512gb Seagate MomentusXT

Hi again,
Quote from: robinvanesch on 03-October-13, 04:33:35
UPDATE: Been running bencharmks/stresstest from onboard graphix, both cards disconnected. (lots of towels to be sure) and runs without problems, tho reallo low fps but thats expected.
Going to see if i can run 1 card at a time, see if i can cause the problem to happen again.
So did you agtually try it?
Yep, bleeding is nice job and dooing it right on all steps is needed so yeah great, but if your CPU can handel the stress and you have tested the PSU then i cant see other way.
Tip: take the hard loop,pipe, bridge(betwean the blocks away and add two 90angle fittings with long tobe, so you can rest each card away the pc 1 at time that way you dont need to bleed the system bitwean.
(allso rest of the toops needs to be so long that it can be far away...)
And yes you need reg edit your SATA drivers like xmad sayd, if you like to change IDE to RAID.
P.s. nice build! Hope you get it working
Edit: You dont need to insert that PSU in the case, just connect wires whrere they need to be, at the momen for testing.
Edit2: My current needs little service and update( add backplate, water change, delid cpu and moving GPU to bottom slot).
Edit3: Wait that one 120mm low Rad keeps your sytem 32c??? Damn you have great chips, cold house or software issue. need for delid main is the heat i dont like and i have hmm 10 times that space to get heat off :D

Freezing: Macbook won't wake up from freeze; takes 10 hard reboots to fix

I've been reading a lot about people having 'freezing' and 'wake up from sleep' issues with macbooks; apparently all of us are having this issue after upgrading to Leopard. Well, for me -
Everything is fine until my Macbook goes to sleep for a long period of time. It's usually after I wake up the next morning - I open the lid and just watch the beach ball spin for minutes on end. I do a hard reboot, but get a grey screen until the blinking "?" comes up on screen. I hard reboot again. I do this about five or six times on average to finally get the apple logo.
I was hoping this recent big apple update would have fixed my problems, but they're still here.
I'm running the first batch of intel core duo, 2GHZ. 1 GIG memory. I have apple care, but where I'm currently living I'd have to mail to to an apple store.

I don't have a solution for you, but am looking for one myself. I just bought a macbook (2.2 ghz, 2g ram, 120hd) yesterday and am experiencing the same issue. The machine won't wake after a long sleep no matter what I do. So far, I have only had to do a hard reboot once to get it back up, but still not something I care to deal with.
I called apple less than 24hours of my purchase and they said to come in to meet with a genius. I am going to have to ask for a replacement for sure. On the phone, they said that it didn't sound good the problem that I am having and that i could take out the battery. I definitely do not want a problem machine right out of the box.
Good luck and will post more after I go to the apple store on saturday.

17 Macbook Pro, freezing while rendering video in FCP

Hi I have a late 2008 Model MacBook Pro 17. My Macbook keeps freezing during rendering in Final Cut Pro 7. Its been doing this for 3 weeks or so. I originally thought a SSD was the way to go, but I think I may really need a new processor. Im a little confused on what I should buy and what fits my MacBook Pro. What I want is to fix the rendering freezing and shorten the rendering time. I'd appreciate any advice or ideas. Is my Macbook compatible to a Intel i7 or i5? Buying a new Macbook Pro is not an option at this point. Thank you in advance.
Here are the specs on my laptop:
MacBookPro4,1
2.6 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
8 GB RAM
500gb HDD Momentus 7200 SATA 3Gb/s
GeForce 8600M GT

Hi instantclassic99,
I do have this article of key combinations on startup:
Startup key combinations for Intel-based Macs
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1533
I would try this with a wired Apple keyboard if possible. Specifically, I'd try:
Press Option during startup
Start up in Startup Manager, where you can select an OS X volume or network volume to start from.
Cheers!

Itunes continually freezing forcing a hard reboot of pc

when syncing my itunes library with my ipod, itunes freezes fairly often and i can't quit out of it even if i try and kill the process in task manager. i think reformatting windows and starting over might help somewhat, but in the meantime, which is the lesser of two evils in terms of damage to my ipod: forcing a hard shut down of my machine with my ipod attached or disconnecting my ipod despite itunes still (sorta) running. when itunes freezes i can't even go to the 'saftely remove hardware' option in my taskbar, so i'm afraid to do anything that'll damage my ipod. any suggestions?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

CS3 freezes whil rendering #D object change Mac OS

Mac os10.57 Mackbook pro 2.4ghz 2gb memory. Creating a 3d object using rounding is not a problem. However. when I try to change size or shape of the object the rendering process isn't exactly forzen but I have let it go over several hours now and it is not done. presently it is on the renderingg visability phase, I have used the same file on a windows pc with no such problem.
I have uninstalled the program and killed all processes, and everything else in the beginning, intermediate and advanced troubleshooting process to no avail.... ~help?

Have you upgraded your video card say from the Nvidia 7300 to the
Nvidia 8800 by any chance?
If so you will not be able to boot from the Disk that came with your
Mac if you are running a Mac. Not saying this is your problem
but if it is then you have two choices one is to swap out the cards so
you have the Nvidia or earlier card version in the Mac or get a more
current disk which supports the new card.
if it is not that i would suspect some other upgrade.

Someone help. 7 freezes while downloading

...then I cant even tell it to not download the video dl which is the largest one...taking literally hours.

To add, I did a reboot on my iPad and it still poses the same problem. Help please...

Freezes While Rendering!

Please i need help asap! i have a report due tommorow!
hey everyone,
i was making a green screen sequence in final cut and its done then when i choose render it goes a certain percentage (changes everytime usually before 20 percent) and then gives me the colored pinwheel. i was using an external but then i transfered to my comp alone... it still does the same thing. please i need help! what is going on!

can you render anything else ? (ie something else in the timeline that is not part of your greenscreen work)
some thoughts:
its possible that you have no disk space for the render (re-target your video render scratch directory)
you maybe have a permissions issue that is stopping the render from working (again, re-target your render scratch directory)
try also creating a new user account, opening your project in he new account and see if it will render

Screen freeze, wifi disconnect, and the only way is to reboot

Each time I use safari, my iPad 2, iOS 5.1 freeze.
Wifi disconnect, and I have to reboot the device.
Any tips?

Try resetting Safari - though I'm not sure that it will help. I just can't think of what would cause WiFi to disconnect - the screen freeze occuring I can see happening - but the WiFi????
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

Help. G Drive freezes while rendering, hard reboot only way out.
