  • Problems restarting iMac with iPod plugged in after last software update

    Hi everyone,
    I have an almost 2 year old 24" iMac Intel, running OS X 10.4.11 and a 30gb iPod video.
    I've been having problems with restarting after the last software update. When I went to restart my computer as required for the update, it shut down, started up (the start up sound came on) and then went to just a blue screen for about 10 minutes or more. I got worried and shut down by holding the power button. Then I turned it back on and the same thing happened. So I shut down with the power button again, unplugged my iPod and external HD, turned the computer back on, and everything started up as normal. So I figured it had to do with one of those. I found that when I've started up with the external HD plugged in everything is fine, but every time I restart with my iPod plugged in, the same thing happens!
    This has never happened before, and I've never had problems with my iMac before this... Can anyone help?
    Thank you!

    Hi, try-> System Preferences->Start Up Disk->ensure OS is highlited.
    Some Macs find it difficult to Start/ReBoot when an iPhone or iPod is connected, it's as though the computer is searching to boot from an external HD. I would Repair Permissions & do the SMC reset.
    Leave the iPod/iPhone unplugged @ reboot...L

  • Help! iPhone 4 frozen after disconnected software update

    I'm really hoping someone can help me.
    I was running a software update on an iPhone 4, and it sort of froze halfway through.  After about 2 hours I stupidly disconnected the phone, I don't know what I was thinking! Now it's stuck on a screen showing the iTunes logo and a wire.  I have tried reconnecting but it doesn't do anything. iTunes is still saying its updating my phone and not letting me close it. I tried turning the phone off and on again and it is still showing the screen. I also tried putting the phone into DFU mode and it didnt do anything
    Please can anyone help?

    Force quit iTunes, then re-boot your computer & force your phone into recovery mode:
    Turn your phone off. Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. In your case, restore from backup.

  • HT4623 Bad Iphone 4S Performance after last OSi update

    Last year my wife & I upgraded from 3GS' to 4S';  We have really been happy with the units, but after the last OSi update, the phone performance took a nose-dive and has not recovered.... I keep trying to update, thinking that a patch or something would appear, but it always says that we're up-to-date....
    Our service is through AT&T and I was given a "micro-cell" unit to install at the house, which boosted the signal up to the time of the update and now both phones drop calls in the kitchen about 20' from the room with the "micro-cell" in it.... I'm really disgusted with the poor performance.... I updated my wife's first and she noticed the change almost immediately; I updated my phone about 2 weeks later, and then my phone started performing poorly too; Does anyone know what I can do to at least get the old performance back????iOS 6.1.3 is what the phone says I have... and it tells me that I am up-to-date.

    Nope. I waited until next day when its battery ran out, I couldn't do much that day. Then, after recharging, I connected it to the Mac again. It didn't recognize my iPhone. iTunes could only reset and update it. But, when it was about 60-70% of the update, came Error 3194. I'm going to a technical assistance once again.

  • IMac doesn't work after last software update

    After last Apple software update (new Safari and security stuff), my iMac 20"/2GHz enters in an on/off loop. It starts but it doesn't manage to load the OS, it shuts off, it restarts, it shuts off and so on.
    Does anybody have the same problem?
    Thks

    Was your update download interrupted in any way? if so, then the computer is trying to find the downloaded files and because the download wasn't completed then it's causing the loop. That's exactly what happened to me. My computer was shutting off intermittent and it did on an update download, so it caused a loop at that's now your case, then never mind.

  • Time Capsule not working after last software update

    I bought my time capsule 3 weeks ago. Set up and worked like a charm (I use airport express for my wireless network). After I downloaded the latest software updates a week or so ago, I got a message that my computer could no longer recognize my time capsule. Since then the time capsule light only flashes amber and wont appear in airport utility.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    I was having problems with the 7.3.1 firmware as well. For me, in manifest as though the internal disk had went bad--a blinky amber light and a "Disk needs repair" error. Rolling back the firmware solved it for me.
    To do this:
    --Open AirPort Utility.
    --Click on your TC.
    --Click on the "Manual Setup" button.
    --When the configuration summary pops up, click on the word "Version".
    --From the "Upload" drop-down list that is on the new pane that pops up, select "7.3", and click "Ok".
    --Once it reboots, it'll be at 7.3.
    Hope this helps. I'll be waiting a few weeks after 7.3.2 comes out to upgrade. I'm not real impressed with 7.3.1. As far as I can tell, it broke more than it fixed.

  • IMovie 11 crashed after last software update

    I have a MacBook Air (mid 2011) with last Lion update. After I mede this week sofware update iMovie 11 cannot open, it tries but crash after a few second. If I push reopen in the crash window report it crashed again. I read in this forum that is happening the same in MacBook Pro, with Lion and with Snow Leopard too.  Any idea?

    Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!! That worked! I haven't used my iMovie in awhile and I wanted to edit a short clip when it started to act up and crash. Thanks to you I was able to follow you directions and everything is working fine now.

  • My phone got completely erased after last software update

    Hi,
    What's wrong with the latest software update for the iPhone? My phone got completely blocked and had to erase it and can still not activate it. Lost all my data, anyone else experienced this problem?
    Best regards,
    Tim Metz

    Don't quote out of context:
    Your follow up indicated that you don't actually have a problem activating your phone at all.
    You don't have an activation problem.
    At this stage, though, I don't care. Figure it out yourself.
    You are the one who is being insulting.
    Next time, try clearly outlining EXACTLY what your problem is. You do NOT have an activation problem. You appear to have not bothered to back up or extract your photos before you attempted to update your phone.

  • Administrator password stopped working after last software update

    Since last automatic software update (I know have Mac OS X 10.7.5 in my MacBook Pro), when prompted for the administrator password with new software installation or to unlock the "lock" in the system preferences, the following happens: the password is accepted as valid (no error message appears, and the password window dissapears), but nothing happens:
    - For new software installation, the "Install" button appears again, and upon pressing it, I get prompted again for administrator password, and the process gets looped into these 2 steps.
    - For unlocking the system preferences, the password window gets closed but the preferences are still locked.
    It seems that my password is valid, because if I purposedly enter a wrong password it lets me know it is not correct, but it just does not unlock anything or just not get accepted as before!
    Now I also see in the tool bar at the top right of the screen my name (I am the administrator and only user, I never created any alternative account), this was not there before.
    Can anyone help me to solve this problem, please?
    Thanks!!
    Monica

    I guess I misunderstood your original post. You are logged in, but you can't authenticate as an admin.
    Back up all data.
    If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know that account password, the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
    Otherwise, boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    resetpassword
    That's one word with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window opens.
    Select your boot volume if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
    Select  ▹ Restart from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but if the password is different from the old one, you won't be able to unlock the Keychain. If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it. You’ll need to reset your keychain in the preferences of the Keychain Access application.

  • Time Machine and FileVault: Change after last Software Update?

    Hallo there,
    A lot of people seem to switch to Leopard because of Time Machine, but according to the reports, the user experience has got nothing to do with reliability. So let me describe what is going on here concerning Time Machine.
    I am using the German Version of Moc OS X Leopard with all recent software updates installed. I will try my best to translate the messages in the user interface. As mentioned above, I work in a user account that is encrypted wih FileVault. For Time Machine I have a 320 GB USB Harddrive from Lacie. Since I am having a MacBookPro, the USB-drive gets connected when I am at home, which means 2 or 3 times a week.
    With the first verion of Leopard, everything seemed to work like described: I had to log out of my account and Time Machine would start to write an encrypted sparsebundle to the USB-harddrive. Now, a few updaes later, the situation appears as follows:
    1.) When I log out of my account, there is no message that Time Machine backs up my home directory; neither can I notice any activity from the USB drive.
    2.) When I open the Time Machine configuration in System Preferences, it tells me in the line with the "Next Backup", that it will start, when "Mac is connected"; but even if the backup drive is connected, nothing seems to happen.
    3.) When I click on the padlock in the bottom left corner of the preferenes panel of Time Machine, the padlock will have opened by itself the next time I log in to my account.
    4.) When I open the backup drive in the Finder now, I can no longer find the encrypted sparsebundle; instead there is a new folder next to the "Macintosh HD" folder, that holds all the contents of my home directory unencrypted... but: its content is out of date!
    If anyone here has an idea what all this means and if there is an option to get an automated backup that really works, I would be glad.
    Thank you.

    I can't comment on the history before 10.5.3, but FileVault and TimeMachine are working ok for me with 10.5.3. Not ideally, because TimeMachine backs up only after a log out, and because you can't use the snazzy galaxy interface to restore individual files. However, the problems here have been exaggerated in the blogs. It is easy (and even good practice) to get in the habit of logging out at the end of the day (or even more frequently, as at lunch). TimeMachine will then have a nice series of stored snapshots. Restoration of individual files, rather than the entire volume, requires--gasp--a bit of "manual" activity rather than "galaxy" activity. One opens TimeMachine, figures out what time slice is appropriate, and proceeds by double-clicking to get to the saved volume for that time slice. Then one double-clicks to mount it, entering the password. Then one goes into the mounted disk, finds the file or folder that had accidentally been deleted or corrupted, drags it to the desktop, and then drags it to wherever it should be. Not exactly a big deal. Compared to the non FileVaulted situation, it's clunky, but still very nice in comparison with most backups and infinitely better than depending on occasional backups.

  • Tiger doesn't start after last Software Update

    Hi,
    this morning I ran the new Update for Tiger and since then the system doesn't restart. Instead it keeps hanging on the grey start-up screen for hours.
    What can I do?
    Regards,
    Nils

    Use Disk Utility to verify/Repair the HD, then Repair Permissions then reboot, if the problems persist try reinstalling the update...
    But don't use Software Update to get it, use this...

  • Problems after last software update :o( N8 on PAYG...

    Hi, hoping someone can help plz.
    Did a recent update on my PAYG o2  N8 (only just realised it was optional!!) and since then my phone has gone crazy, loosing settings etc
    It's lost my internet settings and when I launch OVI it does not connect (just blank screen) I have now figured that I can get online by using my wlan (at home) and then opening a page from bookmark, Long winded but works.
    As far as MMS goes I cannot send one!! I could okay before the update, but despite getting the settings again from o2 (in case that was the problem -it wasn't) I can't send any it just says failed everytime (
    Also, the size of the texting buttons has changed and make it really quite small to text when you have slightly larger fingers, and older (ish) eyes. Anyone else found this a problem?
    Any suggestions would be great, was wondering if I could actually restore factory settings or something to get rid of the new software updates, is that possible?
    Oh and it keeps switching itself off and it never did before.
    I have no nokia centers near me so any help would be great
    Cheers

    @Bellasmum
    Welcome to the forum!
    Unfortunately there is nothing you can do about change in texting button size introduced in Symbian Anna update as you can't downgrade the firmware once updated.
    If you go to Menu > Settings > Phone > Phone management > Factory settings - you could try "Restore" which is the less destructive of the two available options and default lock code is 12345 unless altered by yourself; more details to be found here:http://europe.nokia.com/support/product-support/n8-00/faq#07
    Inability to access Ovi Store can be difficult to resolve if something has gone wrong and you may have to accept workaround for now.
    If you go to Menu > Messaging > Options > Settings > Multimedia message > Access point in use - is o2 MMS defined?
    Presumably you had not taken a backup of your N8 using Ovi Suite on PC at any stage?
    Happy to have helped forum with a Support Ratio = 42.5

  • Magic Mouse scrolling died after last Lion update

    Since the last OS lion update, my Magic Mouse stopped scrolling. It just works as a normal mouse, and a bad one.
    Moreover, everytime I lift it, or sometimes even randomly, the cursor jumps from place to place on the screen. That's very annoying.
    Anyone with the same problem ?

    I had the same problem, followed captfred's instuctions.
    My macbook air crashed and a grey box popped up asking me to restart.
    I did and the scrolling went back to normal. Plus the jumping around of the cursor stopped too.

  • 2nd gen apple tv not streaming after last software update

    I have 2 2nd gen apple tvs. I updated the software to 5.0 on one but not the other.   The updated apple tv is having streaming issues with my purchased content. Netflix will stream but not my purchased tv shows or movies. Anyone else having this issue?  I tried a reset but that didn't work.   And my other apple tv which i didnt update is working fine.  Any advice would be appreciated.  Thanks!

    Damian,
    Thank you for taking the time to respond and no chance I thought that was rude.  Unfortunately I had already reset and rebooted prior to posting.  Also I have another 2nd gen apple tv and I stream netflix all the time as well as amazon prime and am not having issues so it's not my connection.  The only difference between my two apple tvs is that I upgraded the software on one (which now isn't working right) and not the other which is still functioning well!  So I am curious if anyone else has experienced this and has a solution. 
    Thanks again for your ideas and if anything else occurs to you, ping me!

  • My Imac (OS X 10.7.4) doesn't turn off after last software update.

    The problem is this: when I try to turn off my IMac, the desktop disappears and the display becomes white, without anything else. It may stay in this way for several hours, maybe days.
    I only can turn it off by pushing the on/off button for ten seconds.
    The start up is also very slow.
    Any suggestions?

    Try an SMC Reset and a PRAM Reset:
    SMC Reset
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and disconnect attached devices.
    Wait fifteen seconds.
    Attach the computer's power cord.
    Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
    Reset PRAM
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P and R.
    You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
