IMac restarting by itself

Hi all,
So the short of it is that my work iMac (bought new with 3 others), every so often, shuts down by itself and then restarts by itself as well with a message saying something along the lines of 'you have shut down your computer because of a problem'. It's like someone pulled the plug, no warning no nothing, just goes black and restarts. This happens as an alternative for then it crashes/freezes with the screen on and i have to force shutdown via power button.
I haven't been able to pin point reasons because there doesn't seem to be any particular trigger. Maybe when I'm using Adobe Creative Suite applications, but then again as a graphic designer, thats what Im always using, and Chrome (with, admitedly, more tabs open than average).
The tech guy has taken it in and supposedly ran some tests but came back with nothing to report, nothing happened with him. His latest theory is maybe a problem with the power supply, like a peak surge or something... I don't know, haven't tested with a surge protector yet. But done the usual permissions repair and disk repair etc and still nothing.
The other 2 iMacs, same specs, have never had these problems.
Searched online and haven't found any solutions and reports to my particular case. So I've decided to turn to this community for any help.
Below are the specs and an example crash report.
Thanks in advance for any help.

  • My iMac often restarts by itself after I put it to sleep

    Often my iMac restarts by itself after I put it to sleep, even when my router is off.

    I'm encountering the same issue with my mid-2011 iMac 12,1 restarting after being in sleep.
    I want to try deleting some startup files/folders as listed in your previous post. When it comes to the following:
    /private/var/run/StartupItems
    /Library/StartupItems
    /System/Library/StartupItems
    /System/Library/LaunchDaemons
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    Do I delete the entire folder or just the files in each folder?  Do I delete all files or am I looking for some in particular?

  • Imac restarts

    My IMac has been restarting by itself several times a day the past two weeks. It also prompts me to recover disk space using the FileVault just about as much. Does anyone know why this happening? Before this started (and I also have had an episode before in the year or so I have had it) it didnt do this for quite some time and was running fairly slow. Nothing appears to be wrong other than that. Its not a big deal I guess but get aggravating when you have to log in everywhere and such. I dont remember a time when this has happened when I was actually doing something (surfing, using Word, etc.) so apparently it happens when the IMac is "idle".

    Hi, 1st I would assume you have File Vault enabled!!
    2nd are you saying that after the computer restarts from Screen Saver you have to enter your password? this can be disabled in the Screen Saver section of SP
    3rd Maybe it would be advisable to run OnyX and then do a complete disconnect from power etc then reconnect & reboot...L

  • My iMac restarts repeadly and shows yellow ~ all over the screen

    My iMac restarts itself over and over I believe it is a kernel panic.It shows yellow,blue, and green ~ on every startup. Are there commands in the (Command+S) that will help me. All keys don't work on startup. I cannot do anything on it beside access (Command+S) on accasions.

    If it was just restarting, this may have been software but since there is visible screen distortion, im thinking this is most likely a logicboard on its way out.    Definately take this to an apple store and have them diagnose and repair the machine.

    Hey, There are afew things you can try.
    - Simply turn your phone off and back on again
    - Hold down your home button and your lock button and let goes as soon as the screen goes black (Phone will power down) - Then turn on your phone and hey presto!
    - Back up your iPhone to your PC, then restore it..
    this ones last cause I think you may have tried it already..
    - Close all open applications
    Hope this helps!

  • Imac keeps putting itself into Sleep Mode.

    This morning my Imac has put itself into sleep mode twice within an hour - losing everything I was working on. It just goes black and then loads the log in screen.
    I've never had this issue before, it's not over heating (not sure if that could be a problem) it's not full up, it's not lagging it's just this problem.
    I really cannot afford the time to take my Imac into the store for repair unless ofcourse it's really needed. Can someone help please?
    Thank you,

    Hi Tori,
    Unfortunately I'm unable to help, but I want to add that I had exactly the same problem this morning (Jan 13, 2013)! It was putting itself into sleep mode twice within 5 minutes.
    In contrast to TorkiClarkson, the fan of my iMac was blowing hard, but that happened a lot the last months without falling into sleep mode. Actually I'm a bit afraid I've got a heating problem since my warranty of 1 year has experienced..
    Hope someone has valuable information for TorkiClarkson and me.
    Thanks.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click  Log in.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

    Any help?
    Thnks
    Jawwad.

    Hi,
    Manged to found out the cause of the crash. First the findings. We applied all the patches on AIX required by the IBM jdk. Still the crash was happening. Finally after spending some time digging we managed to find that one of jsp page with this line response.setStatus(HttpServletResponse.SC_CONTINUE); was causing the crash. We need this line for some of the web proxies which dont keep http connection alive. Any ideas.
    BTW this same application is running fine on Sun One Webserver 6.0.6 on Solaris.
    Thnks,
    Jawwad.

  • My imac restarted but now it is taking forever

    I upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite and my imac restarted after installing. I entered my password and now there is a progress bar that has moved halfway after over an hour. I tried restarting the computer but that did not help. Is it normal to take this long? My new laptop had no problems.
    I cannot give any specs because I cannot bring that info up on the computer.
    Thanks for any help.
    Catherine

    Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
    To restart an unresponsive computer, press and hold the power button for a few seconds until the power shuts off, then release, wait a few more seconds, and press it again briefly.
    Step 1
    The first step in dealing with a startup failure is to secure the data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since the last backup, you can skip this step.
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to start. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
    a. Start up from the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.” The article refers to starting up from a DVD, but the procedure in Recovery mode is the same. You don't need a DVD if you're running OS X 10.7 or later.
    b. If Step 1a fails because of disk errors, and no other Mac is available, then you may be able to salvage some of your files by copying them in the Finder. If you already have an external drive with OS X installed, start up from it. Otherwise, if you have Internet access, follow the instructions on this page to prepare the external drive and install OS X on it. You'll use the Recovery installer, rather than downloading it from the App Store.
    c. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, start the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    d. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    If the startup process stops at a blank gray screen with no Apple logo or spinning "daisy wheel," then the startup volume may be full. If you had previously seen warnings of low disk space, this is almost certainly the case. You might be able to start up in safe mode even though you can't start up normally. Otherwise, start up from an external drive, or else use the technique in Step 1b, 1c, or 1d to mount the internal drive and delete some files. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation.
    Step 3
    Sometimes a startup failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
    Step 4
    If a desktop Mac hangs at a plain gray screen with a movable cursor, the keyboard may not be recognized. Press and hold the button on the side of an Apple wireless keyboard to make it discoverable. If need be, replace or recharge the batteries. If you're using a USB keyboard connected to a hub, connect it to a built-in port.
    Step 5
    If there's a built-in optical drive, a disc may be stuck in it. Follow these instructions to eject it.
    Step 6
    Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to start up, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can start up now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
    Step 7
    If you've started from an external storage device, make sure that the internal startup volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
    Start up in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know the login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    When you start up in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, the startup volume is corrupt and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to Step 11. If you ever have another problem with the drive, replace it immediately.
    If you can start and log in in safe mode, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
    If the startup process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
    Step 8
    Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see Step 1.) Select the startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
    This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then restart as usual.
    Step 9
    If the startup device is an aftermarket SSD, it may need a firmware update and/or a forced "garbage collection." Instructions for doing this with a Crucial-branded SSD were posted here. Some of those instructions may apply to other brands of SSD, but you should check with the vendor's tech support.  
    Step 10
    Reinstall the OS. If the Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    Step 11
    Do as in Step 9, but this time erase the startup volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically restart into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer the data from a Time Machine or other backup.
    Step 12
    This step applies only to models that have a logic-board ("PRAM") battery: all Mac Pro's and some others (not current models.) Both desktop and portable Macs used to have such a battery. The logic-board battery, if there is one, is separate from the main battery of a portable. A dead logic-board battery can cause a startup failure. Typically the failure will be preceded by loss of the settings for the startup disk and system clock. See the user manual for replacement instructions. You may have to take the machine to a service provider to have the battery replaced.
    Step 13
    If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.

  • Plz help me my computer restarts by itself

    Hello
    I got an msi k7t266a pro 2 motherboard. I got it about 7 months ago and it was running great until i got a new hard drive. I got an 80 gig hd. When i installed winxp and started browsing and playing games it just restarted by itself. I updated the bios to 3.0 and changed the settings in bios but it didnt work. So i installed the old hard drive and the same thing was happening. It just restarts.  
    Is there anyway to fix this?
    Did i damage the motherboard?
    amd athlon xp 1700+
    MSI k7t266a pro 2
    80 gig hd

    geforce 3 ti100
    Iv spent 7 hours changing the settings in bios and fixing this and i dont know what to do..
    thanks

    I wouldn't be to quick to start looking at forums for the infinite loop problem. You can spend days reading about it and not even have this as your problem. You can tell for sure if this is the problem however. All you have to do is disable the automatic reboot and then you will receive a bsod which would say "your computer has become stuck in an infinite loop". It will specifically say infinite loop. If it doesn't say this, you most likely need not worry about this. Your computer can be rebooting for any number of reasons, you need to find out why first. Disable the automatic reboot and post the error you receive in the bsod here.

  • Spacebar freeze & IMac restart?

    I was typing an email (Eudora) on my new, one month old intel iMac. Suddenly the spacebar wouldn't work (no space made when clicking on it). I hit the return key. The other keys worked. I tried the spacebar again. And again! Suddenly the computer restarted on its own. What the???? What happened?? Nothing else went out. I had Eudora open. TextEdit and Safari were running in the background. I ran Disk Utility & verified disk. Says all is fine. But if all were fine, why the sudden spacebar freeze and iMac restart?
