IMac G5 ALS hanging at blue screen

Hi -- I've read variations on this problem, so hopefully I can provide enough information to get a solid thread started.
On startup, my iMac G5 hangs at the blue screen. I've run the install discs, repaired permissions, checked the drive, all successful. Also tried the AppleCare CD, Techtool said all systems passed inspection.
I can boot in safe mode, no problems there.
I tried archive and install, but after restart had the same trouble.
I tried booting in single-user mode to see what the log revealed, and the system seems to hang at the following:
airport link active
in6is_addrmulticast = 0
flags = 0 fails
can't assign requested address
wide area service discovery disabled to avoid crashing defective DNS relays 192.68.1.1
workaround Bonjour unknown error = 0
I notice that some of the wifi networks in my apartment complex are recognized in single-user mode just before the system hangs, which is odd.
I've tried applejack to repair the cache and preferences, but no progress.
Next step appears to be wiping the drive and reinstalling the OS, but thought I'd check here first. Thanks!

I altered the TCP/IP settings, but still no luck, so I proceeded with a full erase and install of 10.4. Much to my dismay, the system still refused to boot after the installation was complete.
At this point I'd run across some threads discussing the capacitor cap failures of the iMac G5's, so on that hunch I popped the back off to take a look.
One of the capacitors is indeed leaking out of the top, so I'm taking the unit in to the Apple store today to receive what will mostly likely be a death certificate. This unit is a refurb and the extended repair program ended in Dec. 2008, so I'm thinking my options are limited.
I'll post back with the Apple store response just in case anyone might find it useful in the future.

HELP! iMac G5 hangs at blue screen, but boots in Safe Mode

Please can anyone guide me to recover my iMac G5 PowerMac 8,2 running OS X 10.4.11.
Problem; Mac hangs on start-up at blue screen after grey Apple screen. Mouse pointer eventually appears but that is all.
Actions taken so far without success:
1. Disconnected the printer and rebooted - no success.
2. Booted in Safe Mode - first time the screen was completely scrambled but with safe mode log on screen showing through.
2.1 Rebooted in Safe Mode OK This has not occurred again and I have entered Safe Mode twice more without problems. But worrying!
2.2 In Safe Mode I ran disk Utility and verified and repaired Permissions, mostly old EpsonPrinter files.
2.3 I also verified the Disk, which was reported OK.
2.4 I was able to save critical documents to USB............ Phew!
2.5 Reboot in Normal Mode - no success
3. Reset PRAM
3.1 Reboot in Normal Mode - no success
4. Reboot in Safe mode - works fine. NOTE: time and date appear to be correct and dont need resetting.
4.1 Run Disk Utility again and Verify Permissions - OK. Nothing needed fixing.
4.2 Run Disk Verify - Passed OK
4.3 Reboot in Normal Mode - no success. Hangs at blue screen with mouse pointer visible and working. Then pointer vanishes.
I would be most grateful for your help in moving this forward

Got to figure out which which of the things dropped when you boot in safe mode is causing the problem.

Hanging on blue screen during boot (but Safe Mode OK)

Strange stuff with my iMac G5 -- machine boots normally, gets through Apple icon and spinning spiral, then hangs on blue screen and stays there. Mouse cursor moves but that's it.
Safe boot works normally, all safe-mode functions good. But need network, other services back.
History: Spent most of past week downloading huge, multi-gig file. It eventually downloaded successfully, but during process my wife put computer to sleep a couple of nights without halting download.
Didn't have adverse effect first time, but it froze Finder second and third times, necessitating reboots. Also killed wireless connections for all PCs in network those two times iMac needed reboot, had to reboot gateway as well.
Morning after download finished (Friday), iMac failed to wake up from sleep, wouldn't boot normally, had to go into Safe mode.
Additional RAM was recently installed, but has worked well. Safe mode shows full two gigs in use.
Solutions I've tried, without success:
-- Trashing network preferences in both user and system
-- Re-installing Finder and NetworkInterface apps using Pacifist
-- Removing recently installed extensions in System (extensions put back after that failed to resolve issue)
-- Removing recently installed Startup items (again, put back after that failed to resolve issue)
Clearly it's got something to do with the network interface, but I've tried everything I know how to do. Any ideas? I'm out of them.
Thanks in advance.

The Airport card is not removable in this model -- 2nd rev G5 iMac, with automatic light sensor.
But -- I think I've found what's wrong. Unfortunately there's no easy fix ...
It's most likely the bad-capacitor issue that plagued the 1st rev of G5 iMacs. (This particular machine was a refurb bought direct from Apple in the fall of 2005, so it's possible bad caps were put on during the refurbishing.)
I first heard about the problem a couple of days ago but figured a hardware diagnostic test would catch it. More online research reveals that the hardware test doesn't.
When I popped the case this morning to yank the new RAM, there were definitely a few capacitors that had domed tops. Nothing spilling out anywhere, which was what I was looking for, but I've since found out that even contained bulging is a sign of failure. The capacitors should be instead perfectly flat-topped.
So ... I'm gonna call Apple tomorrow morning and see how much it would cost to replace the mobo. There have been reports in forums that Apple sometimes offers to do it for free, even in cases occurring within the few months.
See this link for examples of Apple picking up the tab for complete mobo replacement: http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20090314071508354
If that offer isn't made, I will look into having the capacitors replaced. This is at the edge of my own technical abilities so I will first ask my techie friends if they can do it for $100 or so, plus parts ... and if not I'm gonna try to do it myself.
This guy shows you how and sells inexpensive parts to do it with: http://jimwarholic.com/2008/07/how-to-repair-apple-imac-g5.php
There is also a guy out in Missouri who replaces bad capacitors on motherboards for a living: http://www.badcaps.net/ Looks as if he'll charge between $80-120 including shipping and parts. So I may go that route.
In any case it turns out Apple did know about this issue back in 2005 and even instituted a program to fix iMacs that had problems stemming from it for free. (Dell Optiplex machines also had the same problem, which was traced back to a few Taiwanese manufacturers.)
Unfortunately there was no recall (Apple would never have lived that down) nor was the issue highly publicized. You had to wait until your own machine acted up, and then the free-repair program expired at the end of 2008.
I myself never knew about it until a few days ago, and I usually keep up on this stuff -- which is something I will make very clear when I'm on the phone with Apple tomorrow.

When turning on my imac, it loads to a blue screen with a turning wheel and never gets passed that. I have tried booting to safe mode and it still doens't work.

When turning on my imac, it loads to a blue screen with a spinning wheel. It never gets passed that screen. I have tried power up to safe mode and it still doesn't work. I have music files saved on the computer and I don't want to lose any of my files. Can someone help me?

Zap the PRAM and Reset the SMC, and see if that fixes it. BTW. detailed computer and OS info goes a long way to solving problems.

Imac won't shut down, blue screen with spinig wheel is on and computer never shuts until I hold the power button down and shut it manualy..

My iMac is frozen on a blue screen during an update software for snow leopard. What do I do? Turn off my imac?

My iMac is frozen on a blue screen during an update of software for snow leopard. What do I do? Should I turn off the computer?

do a hard shutdown of the mac (holding down the power button until it shuts off) then do an SMC reset, the following article tells how to do this:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
after doing this reset and restarting the mac, try again to install the update.

IMac will not start up - blue screen after months of Leopard use

I have an iMac G5 that will not start up. It hangs at the blue screen, but does not have the issue with the ApplicationEnhancer.bundle file. It will start up in safe mode.
This iMac will not start from a bootable external drive (the external drive can be used as a start up disk successfully with my iBook G4). The iMac's internal drive can be used as a start up disk for the iBook (via the target mode) and does not appear to have any problems. Does this seem like it is a hardware issue with the iMac? The iMac also hangs at the blue screen if I attempt to start up with the Leopard install disk after using the startup disk preference pane in safe start mode.
I have repaired permissions, verified the disk, etc., using the disk utility. I have cleared caches, preferences, and so on, using Mac HelpMate.

It may be that some of your login items might be incompatible with the mac. Also, try booting up from the install disk and repair your disk.

MacBook Pro hanging with blue screen and spinner after installing Software Update

Hi I was wondering if someone could help me with this current issue. Just a few hours ago I finished reinstalling Mac OS X Snow Leopard in my MacBook Pro. I performed a clean installation as part of a yearly spring cleaning that I do on all my systems to keep them optimized. So there was I downloading some software updates which included the combo update of OSX 10.6.8 and others. The updates finished downloading and the system logged out to install the updates, when the updates finished installing my MacBook proceeded by logging out into a blue screen and show a gray spinner similar to the one seen when you start your Mac. Here's the problem after 2 hours the system is showing the spinner and the blue screen, I think that my computer has just hanged in the reboot process.
I was wondering what should I do? Do a force restart? Or leave it overnight?
Also, where can I find any information on what error is causing this issue?
I appreciate your responses and help.
By the way, I installed Mac OS X from a USB stick that has the original image of the disk installer that came bundled with my computer.

Kappy wrote:
Force a shutdown. Do not restart yet, but first do the following:
Repair the Hard Drive
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
Next, boot into Safe Mode then restart normally.
Hi Kappy,
Checked the hard drive after forcing a shutdown and booting from my Snow Leopard Installer USB Key and the status of the HDD says "Verified". I ran the repair and the volume was repaired successfully. Clicked on "Verify Disk" and it says "Macintosh HD appears to be OK". So I ran a second repair and again no errors were reported.
As suggested I booted back again in Safe Mode and restarted normally. All software appears to have been installed successfully. But I don't understand why my computer hanged and showed the spinner after installing the updates in the blue screen that appears just before rebooting. I am aware that the system shows that spinner after a OS update but the longest it lasts is 30 seconds at the most in my previous cases.

IMac G5 - boots up to blue screen - tried everything

I have an iMac G5 (no iSight) 2GHz. Came across following problem (running MacOs 10.4.11):
- Normal boot: Mac goes through normal start up, but never gets beyond the blue screen - i.e. just before log in.
- Safe boot: boots up OK & can log in.
Up to this point, has been working fine for however long I have had it (maybe 3 years, I think).
I have trawled through the various sites and tried everything, including:
- Resetting PRAM
- Resetting SMU
- Disk Utility - repair permissions (some problems, now fixed)
- Disk Utility - repair disk (no problems)
- Apple Hardware Test from install disk 1 (no problems)
- Re-formatting disk & re-installing Mac OS from install disks (MacOs 10.4)
None of the above has fixed the problem - in normal boot it stops at blue screen, and if safe boot it gets through OK & works fine.
Next stop is the local Mac repair shop. But before I head off there, I wondered if anyone here could suggest anything.
The following link has three docs - full system profile, console log for unsuccessful boot (i.e. to blue screen) and console log for successful boot (safe mode):

Thanks in advance

my powermac is doing the exact same thing, did you ever find out what the issue was?
Thanks,

Brand new iMac 27" i3 is flashing blue screen

My brand new Imac (one-day old) is acting very odd as it slowly flashes a pulsating light blue screen when I try to access Apple Menu (restart/sleep/shutdown) features. No matter what I do it will not turn off. I have since had to do a hard shutdown but now it stops at an error screen upon start-up that tells me to restart!
I am Mac savvy and this has never happened to me. Prior to this happening, I called Apple Tech Support because I could not use their Mac Migration feature to move my info off of a G4 running 10.4.11. Tech support could not help either as wireless, ethernet and direct Firewire attempts yielded no Migration results. I finally had to pull the hard drive out of the G4 and hooked it up to the new iMac. Everything seemed to transfer except when it was done the contents of what I just copied thru Migration was nowhere to be found. That is when I started experiencing the slow-flash blue screen phenom and is where I am stuck today.
I am ready to take this thing back. In all my years I have never had a problem like this with an Apple product. Any help or insight will be appreciated.

ONE
Paul has given you good advice in that I would reinstall the OS from the supplied disks to get your computer working properly.
TWO
Then re-install your old programs (only those you really need since they are likely PowerPC, not “universal” Intel programs) from their original disks.
THREE
If you have the user data from the old drive backed up, then hopefully you can restore your user data to the new drive or buy an enclosure and access the old data as needed (which is what I did when originally migrating from a Power Mac G5 to the iMac (late 2009).
Alternatively, if step ONE is problematic and your machine is defective, you can likely return it to Apple within 14 days (or whatever the law is in your country) for a replacement or refund and purchase a new iMac just released today. Steps TWO and THREE still apply in this case.

IMac intel: 5 minutes of blue screen before startup! Help!

Hi-
I have a Core Duo 17" iMac. I've erased the hard drive and installed a clean, new copy of 10.5. It takes the computer 5 minutes of blue screen before starting. There are no peripherals attached, no other software than the Apple system software installed. I erased the hard drive and installed 10.6, and had the same problem. Reset the SMC, zapped the PRAM. Replaced the memory chips. Replaced the hard drive. Nothing helps.
The console log shows lots of delay about "did not die after sending SIGKILL." The Console log also shows the 5 minute delay in startup. In the log below, look at the entry at 5:21 pm on 9/15. That's when the computer started, then the next entry is 5 minutes later at 5:26pm. That's my 5 minute blue screen startup.
Anyone know what's going on? Thanks.

Curious to know how you got to 10.5.8, If you went through Software Update, using the "Delta" updates, or if you used the 10.5.8 Combo? It might be worthwhile applying (or re-applying) the 10.5.8 Combo, which might serve to fill in anything missing or possibly corrupted.
http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_8_ComboUpdate
The other thing I'd try is running Applejack which is a very useful little program for troubleshooting and repairing. It runs from Single User Mode. Hold CMD-S at the startup chime. Here's a short article explaining how it's used. (Also, be sure to read the Read Me.) It's very easy to use. You just follow the on screen prompts. First, just type in applejack and press return. To begin with, I'd only run it only for steps 3 and 4, which will do a relatively light cache cleaning (but, importantly in your case, clean out the boot cache) and check for corrupted Preference files. Doing it this way, you'll also be able to run those steps for your user, not just the system. If that doesn't help, you can run it for deeper cache cleaning by typing in applejack AUTO and let it run through a full sequence of tasks. Note: that if you do a deeper cache cleaning, you can expect the system to run a bit slower until those caches are rebuilt.

MacBook Pro keeps hanging at blue screen when starting up. How do I get around this?

My Macbook has been working just fine for a while, but recently today, it just started crashing on me a lot. This is NOT a kernel panic, but the screen suddenly goes blue and hangs. Then I am forced to restart it.
When I restart it normally, it stops going on the gray screen. I try Safe Mode, but it then suddenly goes to said blue screen again.
I can't even get back onto my computer. How do I solve this issue?

Bump. Really need help on this.

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

Won't boot, hangs on blue screen

i was doing a software update of a bunch of things and the system ended up hanging for a very long time so i did a hard restart. when i turned it back on it went on very slowly, and got hung up at a blue screen.
i did another hard restart and it came on (slowly) but when the desktop loaded it only loaded the dock, and kept having an error dialog box pop up that said that 'Spotlight' was not loading, i could try again, ignore, etc.
i am now running the disk utility from the start up disk to check the hard drive. its possible this is getting hung up as well.
originally i came to here to see if there was a way to reinstall spotlight from the install disk. but with the disk verify getting hung up i'm a little worried. any thoughts?

You interrupted an installation in progress. This is bad news. You should always give it all the time it needs. Unless you have a Time Machine backup or a clone on an external drive, you might have to reinstall from the DVD. (And if you don't have either, it's time to consider getting some kind of backup. I would never do a major update without knowing I can revert to the backup if necessary.) In !0.6 this should preserve your settings and apps. When you are finished, install the 10.6.4 Combo Update.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1048?viewlocale=en_US
But before you do that, you might see if you can get it to boot in Safe Mode by holding down the shift key at startup. This will take much longer than a usual booup; it's doing some checking and repairing, so give it time. If you are able to boot in Safe Mode, repair Permissions from Disk Utility in Applications > Utilities.
And it sounds like the system might have been choking on too many updates. I generally only use Software Update to see what's available. Then, if I want to do an update, I find the standalone at apple downloads and, if I'm doing several updates, I only install them one by one.

Macbook pro hangs on blue screen at startup

I've been having intermittent problems with my Macbook Pro starting up, but this is the first time it's completely failed to start up: I get the startup sound, the grey screen with apple logo, and then it just hangs on a blue screen, with a grey startup dial, and nothing happens. It was working fine up until this evening; it's confusing to say this, but it seems to have moods where startup is an issue. But I have taken it in several times for this very problem: the first time, they replaced my hard drive, the second I was told to reinstall OS X, and then add software back one program at a time. All I had on this machine was Adobe Creative Suite 4, nothing which would cause any issues. I don't even have any fonts on this machine!
Desperate to know what might be the problem; I've tried a few of the basic troubleshooting work arounds and none of them are working. Does anyone know what the issue could be?
Help!

If you get a external USB or Firewire drive, you can hold c and boot off the installer disk #1 that comes with your computer, the second screen in is a Utilities Menu and Disk Utility.
Select the EXTERNAL DRIVE and Erase, format HFS+ Journaled GUID partition.
When that's completed quit Disk Utility and your back in the OS X installer, install OS X on the EXTERNAL DRIVE.
When that's complete quit and reboot hold down the OPTION KEY and select the External drive to boot from.
Now GRAB THOSE FILES!!!
After that you can do what you want to the boot drive, if you can't fix it, you can always install OS X again (without formatting) and it should leave your programs and files alone. But if something goes wrong you have a copy on the external drive.
You can choose to Disk Utility format and reinstall everything, OS X, programs and files as well.
If for some reason you can't access your internal drive, either booted from the install disk in Disk Utility or via the external drive, it's possible your hard drive died.
