Hi there, I most often find this happens on a Wifi/Airport connection & is a bad download.
At this point I think you should get Applejack...
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596
After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 5 of it's things.
At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
The 5 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
Is this the one you're trying?
The combo update for PowerPC-based Macs...

  • Lost a 2 hard drives, have 7 k photos on a touch that I need to load on IMAC with a new hard drive, how do I do it.  Just never went from a Touch to iMac.  I have the cable hooked up and then what, I don't want to mess up,my last chance to save 7k pics!

    Lost my hard drive and also an Ipad, but have 7 k photos on a Touch that I need to load on fixed IMAC with a new hard drive, how do I do it. (There were more photos than the 7k, but they were saved on other drives, thank goodness).  7K pohotos on the Touch are no where else, must be saved!  Just never went from a Touch to iMac.  I have the cable hooked up and then what, I don't want to mess up,my last chance to save 7k pics!  New Aperture and IPhoto on IMAC with no other photos loaded on the new hard drive yet.

    I'd ask in the iTouch forum where there are more iTouch users there than here and they should know how to off load the photos.  It might take a 3rd party app.

  • Hi, I have a late 2008 iMac with a new hard drive. How do I install Mountain Lion from my bootable USB flash drive.

    How do I install Mountain Lion to a new hard drive without having the recovery partition on it.
    I have the USB flash drive with software on it but when I switch my Mac on all I have is a white screen & a flashing question mark.
    ATB,
    Steve.

    Did you use LionDiskMaker or DiskMaker X?
    Boot the machine with the option key down until you see your bootable USB stick.  Select the latter, and reboot.
    When the installer boots up, you will first need to choose Utilities and Disk Utility. Select the target HD device name and then the partition tab. Select 1 partition, name it Macintosh HD. Format is Mac OS Extended, and option is GUID. Apply. Exit Disk Utility and return to the installer, which will now show your newly partitioned HD as available for install.
    When OS X is installed and all updates applied, press shift+command+U and run disk utility again. Verify/repair permissions and verify the boot disk.

  • How to set up an iMac g3 with new hard drive

    I have an iMac g3 grafite se, the person before me forgot their admin password so I bought a new hard drive for it but I don't know how to re install the software I turned the iMac on and I just had a grey blank screen would really appreciate some help please I have an iMac software install disc which say Mac OS version 9.1, I have iMac applications cd, all 4 iMac software restore discs and they say Mac OS version 9.1 , 10.0.3 and a Mac OS X version 10.0.3

    I have iMac applications cd, all 4 iMac software restore discs and they say Mac OS version 9.1 ,
    Boot from the gray system restore disk marked "Disk 1" by inserting the disk and then restarting while holding the C key. It takes a couple of minutes to boot from a CD or DVD but, when complete, you will have access to an installer. I'd install OS9 first to see if the comptuer works.

  • My Imac needs a new hard drive. Can anyone help ensure I get the right one?

    I have an Imac from around 2008-09. IMac8,1
    It's running Mac Os X ver. 10.5.8 and has the stock hard drive in it.
    2gb ram
    Running a 2.8ghz Intel Core 2 Duo and I think has like 250 gb
    I'd like to get something bigger and also upgrade the operating system.  Don't need multiple TB's nor can I afford it but want to ensure i get the right thing for my needs.
    It won't install adobe photoshop 6 because operating system is too old but don't want to spend money on new operating system with hard drive that keeps failing.
    Error code: 4hdd/11/40000000 SATA (0,0) !
    Got this error code about a year ago.  downloaded a manual fan program that has helped but every third day or so it crashes and when i try reboot i get the dreaded question mark.  usually if i let it rest for an hour or two it fires up but i don't want to risk anymore.
    any help greatly appreciated.
    cheers

    I suspect a failed HD, in that case I'd recommend Apple Hardware Test in Extended Mode at least 3x. You will need the original install discs that shipped with the computer, if you do not have them any longer you will need to order a replacement set from Apple by calling AppleCare. You will need a credit card and the serial number of the machine. The cost should be nominal.

  • How do you install os on an imac with a new hard drive

    The hard drive failed on my iMac. I installed a new harddrive - how do I install the OS on the iMac. I never received boot disks.

    I assume  you  bought the machine new and it's a 2012 or later machine. If so then you can use Internet Recovery. If you bought the machine with Snow Leopard or below you received install discs however you probably misplaced them. If that is the case (machine originally shipped with SL or earlier) then call AppleCare and for a nominal fee  your discs can be replaced.If you need to use Internet Recovery then click Internet Recovery for instructions.

    Trying to download photos from IPHONE, IPAD to IPHOTO in IMAC after installing new hard drive.
    How did you import the photos to iPad and iPhone?
    If the photos have been synced to the iPhone and iPad using iTunes, you cannot sync them back.
    See this document:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
    You can't reimport pictures synced from your computer to your device back to your computer. You can only import pictures in the Camera Roll or Saved Photos from your device to your computer. If you need to retrieve synced photos from your device:
    If your photos are not in the Camera Roll on your devices, save them to the Camera Roll, share them to the Photo Stream, mail the photos, or, if you have iPhoto on the devices, use iTunes Photo Sharing.
    http://help.apple.com/iphoto/iphone/2.0/?handbuch#blnkee26bc1
    Save photos to your computer using iTunes
    Connect your iOS device to your computer.
    Tap a photo, album, event, web journal, or slideshow and tap Share> iTunes.
    Tap Selected, or change the photos you want to save (if you are saving a slideshow skip to step 4):
    Select different photos: Tap Choose Photos, tap one or more photos, and tap Next.
    Select a range of photos: Tap Choose Photos, tap Range, tap the first and last photos in the range, and tap Next.
    Select all the photos in an album or event: Tap All.
    In iTunes, click the button for your device and click Apps at the top of the window.
    Below File Sharing, select iPhoto (in Apps).
    Select the Shared Photos folder under iPhoto Documents.
    Click Save To and select the location on your computer where you want to save the items.
    To view your photos, go to the Finder and look in the location you selected above.

  • Reboot new hard drive

    Hi
    Problem:
    I am trying to reload OSX and my back-up from Time Machine onto my iMac with a new hard drive.
    Setting:
    A black-out damaged haed drive in iMac 27"
    Computer shop replaced hard drive and partitioned it for me.
    It originally came with leopard but had upgraded to Lion. Backed up to Time machine.
    Now when I start it with snow leopard inserted the screen either comes up blank, or with a "folder with question mark", or "an apple logo"  but there is no further progresssion.
    How do I get it going???
    Cheers
    Bernie

    Your Time Machine backup should be bootable at the 10.7.2 level.  A copy of recovery HD is there that will allow you to restore TM to the HD.
    Hold the Option key when you hear the startup tone.  The boot manager should give you the option to start from your TM drive.

  • New hard drive in 2009 iMac has been installed and now I have a folder with a question mark displayed on start up.

    I installed a Barracuda 500 gb drive. When I attempted a reinstall based off an external hard drive using time machine, it showed an error message of not being able to complete the back up. This was after I formatted the new drive using disc utility. I reformatted a different external drive and let it make several back ups. I then put the new drive into the machine and now I only get the folder with the question mark. It is a late 2009 iMac. The OS updates have been through the on line store and I do not have back up discs. Everything SHOULD be backed up on my external.

    when you partition and format the new bare drive are you running off of an install disc in the optical drive? I have used the install disk for Leopard to access the Disc Utility (did not install Leapard, just used it to access the Disc Utility) as well as the machine prompting me to take action due to the new hard drive being recognized, again using disc utility and using the install disc provided by the hard drive manufacturer. All of these were done according to instruction as previously mentioned, on a reformatted and partitioned drive each time.
    What OS version are you nstalling on the bare drive before you attempt to restore from your Time Machine backup? I have not installed any OS on the bare drive. I do not have a copy of Lion 10.7.5  as I purchased it through the app store. I was under the impression I could reinstall all the data through Time Machine but that is proving elusive - frustrating.
    Are you trying to use the Time Machine "star wars" interface to restore or are you using Migration Assistant? I am not using migration assistant. I have been using the Time Machine restore application.

  • How/where can I get an operating system disk for 2007mid iMac that I installed new hard drive on

    I installed a new hard drive in my iMac 2007mid .Adventurous..
    I am told I need the operating system now.   I am behind a few upgrades due to needing the new hard drive..
    suggestions please?

    You can install from any full/retail installer DVD. If you have no discs, then you can purchase replacement discs from Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes
    international calling numbers..
    You can also purchase a retail Snow Leopard DVD:
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store.

No clue what needs to be done. Hope spmepme has a answer.

    Try resetting the App Store.

    You need at least 10.6.7 installed. If that's the case, since you didn't indicate anything, update to 10.6.8, launch the App Store.app in /Applications, and click on the Redeem link.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.

    You may need many other updates to retain compatibility with Lion. I suggest you reinstall Snow Leopard. Unfortunately, you will need to erase the drive first. Be sure to backup your data if you haven't done so already.
    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
    Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
    the drive and everything on it.
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. 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 the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. After you finish Setup Assistant will complete the installation after which
             you will be running a fresh install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process
             by opening Software Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your
             installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
