IMac 24" does not boot up after Installing 10.6

Hi,
Last night i did the upgrade, well i put the dvd and clicked install, it rebooted, install everything.
Then i saw the screen saying that the install was completed (hope it meant: upgrade!!!).
But then, i just see the white background a the little circle running... after 1 hour same thing... So i shut it down, and restart, same thing ?
What is going on ? The installation manual was not clear about performing an update !
Any idea how i can fix this ?

I was able to eject the dvd by pressing the usb mouse left button while booting. Then put it back in after a reboot
After that selecting the alt-key, i selected the install dvd, and after a while (gray background and spinning weel) it took me again to the installation screen.
Will tell you if it is working in a while...

  • HELP ME T23 does not boot anymore after installing a Lenovo update. Any idea?

    Hi, I installed the updates and later I shut down the laptop as requested. Later that day I wanted to start it again but nothing happend other than the little round green light next to the switch button goes on. The monitor stays black. I removed the batterie and plug (the batterie is dead anyway) but that did not help. I believe my harddrive made noise lately, too. Is that the end?

    has anyone's screen go blank and not boot up after installing the new yosemite OS

    Hi Mofimac,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your Mac is only starting up to a blank gray or white screen after updating OS X, you can find some useful troubleshooting steps in this article:
    Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup
    I recommend going through these first three sections first:
    Disconnect, test peripheral devices and network cables
    Perform a Safe Boot
    Reset the NVRAM / PRAM

  • Satellite M30-107 does not boot correctly after Recovery disk usage

    Hi
    I've recently got hold of a second hand toshiba Satellite M30-107 laptop, and decided to freshen it up.
    I used the toshiba recovery disk, but after doing so the laptop no longer loads windows.
    When turned on it shows the Toshiba start up disk for about a second then goes to a blank screen and freezes.
    When turned off and on again a screen comes up reporting an error in shutting down and gives the options to start in safe mode etc. but choosing any of the options causes the machine to freeze.
    Any help or advice would be much appreciated.
    Thanks
    jt

    Hi
    Sounds a little bit like the notebook does not boot due to the Windows software issue
    Did you recover the M30 with the original Toshiba recovery CD which was supplied with this M30 unit?
    Maybe Im wrong but for me it looks like a wrong recovery CD was used and an image with non compatible drivers was installed
    You could try to install the OS from original Microsoft Win XP CD and could check if it would be possible to get the notebook ruining using clean OS.
    In such case we ( you and me ;) ) could find out if this issue could be related to the software or hardware.
    Bye

  • Cisco Nexus 5596 does not boots up after NX-OS upgrade 5.1.3.N1.1 to 6.0.2.N2.5 [CSCun66310]

    Hello Friends,
    Just want to save your precious time & effort, while doing Nexus 5596 upgrades so wanted to share some useful info which you can have a look prior to your upgrades of Cisco Nexus 5596 device.
    I recently ran into trouble when upgarding one of datacenter switch Nexus 5596 does not boots up and after investigation from Cisco TAC it comes out to be Bug documented below.
    https://tools.cisco.com/bugsearch/bug/CSCun66310/?reffering_site=dumpcr
    My Upgrade path of device was : 5.1(3)N1(1)  to  6.0(2)N2(5).
    Since this upgarde involves upgrade of Bios and Power sequensor, I was having some doubts to get this succesfully upgraded,  But there was more twist involved in this upgrade which I came to know after contacting Cisco TAC for my died Nexus 5596 device and got info that if you have below impacted version in your Nexus 5596 device and you are planning to do Upgrade, then you migh RUN into this serious BUG aftre which device won't come up at all and only Option left is to replace with RMA device.
    PID                            Impacted                   Hardware versions      Updated Versions
    UCS-FI-6296UP                                            1.0                                       1.1

    N5K-C5596T                                                 1.1                                         1.2
    You can check hardware version using below command from your device.
    5596# show sprom sup | inc H/W
    H/W Version     : 1.1
    So please be carefull when planning your Nexus 5596 upgrade and verify above things as this Bug is not present anywhere in Upgrade docuemntations unfortunately.
    Hope this will help and save someone's precious Time.

    Today "upgraded" our switch (N5k-C5596UP) to from 5.1(2)N1 to 7.0(5) and after reboot no life from the switch either. Even no console response. show sprom sup | inc H/W shows 1:0.
    Only thing we could do is RMA the switch. So what must I do with these switches? Have still to do 3 of them.

  • 24" iMac AlSiO does not boot with iPod video on USB dock

    Hello all,
    I have already reported this as an issue with Apple.
    I noticed that when I turn on my new iMac with the video iPod on the dock connected via USB, I only see the gray screen and the OS does not start. However, once I remove the iPod from the dock, then the Apple logo will show up, and the circular moving tiny line counters will ensue before the login screen appears.
    Just wondering if anyone else is running into this problem.

    Thanks for the suggestions den.thed and elmac.
    I have done the following:
    - Selected the Mac OS X on the MacHD as the startup disk and locked that from further changes. Restarting the iMac did not work.
    - Verified and repaired permissions. Restarted the iMac and it did not work either.
    In addition, I also tried:
    - Restoring the video iPod and leaving it without contents. Rebooting the iMac worked.
    - Syncing iTunes with the iPod after the restore. The rebooting problem appears again.
    It seems like some synced items on the iPod are causing the issue as odd as that sounds.
    I did not have this problem with my G5 iMac.
    Since there is a workaround, I'll just live with that for now.
    Thanks again.

  • G4 will not boot up after installing latest update

    Just installed latest OS 10 update (10.4.8 or 9?) Mac will not boot up. The ring sounds on start up and the apple shows on video but it never gets to the rotating circle. It has been over an hour. I have restarted twice to no avail. I have also disconnect all peripheral. Do you have any suggestions as to what to do next?

    Hi-
    Welcome to Discussions!
    Try a boot in safe mode (startup holding"shift" key after chime). This will help determine if you have conflicting drivers, fonts,etc. present, and helps bypass damaged software components:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107393
    If successful, run Disk Utility. If not, try a single user boot, and run fsck:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Alternatively, boot from your OS install disk, and run Disk Utility.
    Post back with your results, please!

  • Adobe media player does not have content after install.

    I just got into school for web development and they sent the cs5 master suite, adobe media player came with it. After installing it and logging in, I went to the adobe tv site and seen a slew of tutorials that I would love to use with adobe media player. Everything I do will not add the videos, adding the rss feed only says its not available and there is nothing in it at all. I am very disappointed in this. Hopefully I am doing something wrong.
    Please advise

  • TS1424 Apple Mobile device does not show up after installing 10.0.7.21

    Receive message "Apple Device not started". Apple Device does not show up in Adminstrative Tools, Services. Windows 7 64bit, IOS6.0.1.

    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.
    The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if a component such as Apple Mobile Device Support won't install normally.

  • X220t does not boot anymore after a few times running, does not get past BIOS

    I just bought a x220t and want to use it with Win8.1. I had before upgraded my x201t to win8 with no problem at all.
    After a few succesfull runs in wich I do the patching it stops booting completely. I can't even push F8. It will only go to Bios in witch I have fidled a bit, but nothing works. I have tried a fesh install for three times. It does boot an USB DVD drive with the origiganal win 8.1 disk, but it can't fix my problems.
    I have an I7 version whith Intel 160GB ssd. I did a lenovo check, all clear, I dit an Intel SSD check, all clear. Unfiortunatiely I have delated the restore partition. I am on the latest BIOS (1.39)
    Sometimes I get in to the Lenovo boot menu, with no result. I want to rip out my hairs!
    Any help?

    Hi thomas1921,
    Not an answer to your specific question, but I'm very surprised that a BIOS update would break DVD booting. Have you tried pressing F1 at boot to get to BIOS Setup and examining / changing the boot order? Or pressing F12 at boot to select the boot device? (Think the F12 feature must be enabled in BIOS Setup.)

  • Macbook Pro not booting right after installing mavericks

    I downloaded Mavericks on my 2007 macbook pro and after I booted it for the first time it has the apple sign, loading circle, and loading bar. After it is done loading it powers down, if i start it up again it repeats the same thing. Please help.

    Hi, I had exactly the same issue last night on my Macbook Pro late 2011 model.  Unfortunately, I could not find a way out of it.  Has yours actually installed?  Mine kept saying it was installing but then getting stuck and saying "error in install there is a problem with your hard drive." 
    Sadly, I found the only way out of it was to restore my Pro from my back up copy (which thankfully i'd taken 5 minutes before attempting upgrade.)  Others might me able to advise you of more ways round it, but I took to the forums and read up and this seemed the only way to get my Pro back so I could use it again.
    You need to get it to the screen to provide options to do this, so start in recovery mode, which I think is CTRL CMD, plus R button.  It should then bring you up with a list of options and choose recovery from time machine.
    I decided to wait until they've ironed out some of the clear difficulties with this new operating system.

  • IMac G5 does not turn on after power cord knocked off

    I have an iMac G5 that I recently passed on to my daughter. For the past few years it has been working fine except for one occasion that I replaced the power supply. At that time it was still covered by warranty and Apple sent me a replacement unit that I installed myself. Lately, the power cord was knocked off while the computer was on and now it will not turn on completely. It starts for about 15 seconds up to the gray Apple logo then the screen goes blank. I monitored the LEDs and all 3 do turn on then the computer shuts down. At first I thought it's the power supply that was affected with the power cord accident, and bought a replacement unit. I have just installed it but still the same problem exist. I am now asking for help from the expert souls out there to save this computer. Thanks.

    No more ideas except to try starting from the install disc and see if that works. Resetting the PRAM might jolt it back to life, it's worth a try, but I am not hopeful.
    If you do take it in, please let us know whether it was the logic board...

  • VS 2012 does not finish starting after installing ODAC 11.2 Release 5

    I installed the ODAC 11.2 Release 5 (11.2.0.3.20) with Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio. When VS 2012 restarts the splash page comes up with a message to wait while an operation completes but it never does. Does anyone have an idea as to what the problem may be?
    Running Win 7 Pro with VS 2012 Ultimate.
    Paul

    I would like to add some additional information to the above post. I am receiving the same error using the new release. The beta release worked fine. I completely uninstalled the beta and then installed the new release. Once installed, VS2012 stopped working. The splash screen comes up and then the little box stating that it is waiting for a background process to complete is displayed. That is it. From what I can tell, it is in a userwait state.
    Unfortunately, when I uninstalled the component, it left some artifacts behind. When I now start VS2012, I get errors stating that Oracle ODT did not load correctly and then VS2012 stops working and exits. I am running VS2012 as administrator.
    This behavior is exhibited on both Windows 8 and Windows7 Home Ultimate (both 64bit) and VS2012 ultimate.
    The activity log shows what is giving the error, shows the following:

    The above entry was thrown when VSDevTools had been removed from the system.
    Unfortunately, I did not get any information about what exactly was causing the wait state when the Dev Tools for VS was installed. From Process Explorer, I could see that msenv.dll was chewing through cycles, waiting for multiple objects. I have stack prints for devenv.exe and msenv.exe as well as a thread screenshot if anyone is interested in seeing them.
    Hopefully this will shed some light on what needs to be fixed.
    Thanks,
    Craig D.

  • Windows 2012R2 does not boot automatically after BSOD

    I have a Windows 2012R2 server with some critical applications.
    Sometimes one of that applications causes BSOD. It doesn't matter why - I need the server to reboot and continue running without manual intervention. Instead of it server restarts and then stays on "Choose an option" screen (with Continue/Use
    a device/Troubleshoot/Turn off your PC options).
    After that I need to go to server room and press Continue manually. It is not an option for me because it can happen during the night and server will not be operational until the morning. Is there the way to skip that screen automatically?
