ITunes causes gray screen on shutdown/restart

Hi guys! I recently noticed that when I shutdown/restart my MBP, i get stuck in a gray screen with spining wheel. I  can't remember if and what i instaled, but I know that this problem happens when I open up ITunes and keep showing up even when I close/force quit manually ITunes.
Can anyone help me please?!

  • Stuck on gray screen on warm restarts

    I just wanted to add a data point to the problem of getting stuck gray screens with warm restarts.
    My Mac Mini 3,1 (early 2009) started arresting at the gray screen with the logo upon warm restarts. If I shut down entirely and waited for a while, or if I unplugged the mini for a few seconds, it would start up fine and work normally. I tried replacing the hard drive (it was due for a bigger one anyway) and installing Mt Lion from scratch; but that did not affect the problem one bit.
    I took the Mini to the local Genius Bar, and when we couldn't reproduce the problem, I noticed we were using a VGA cable with an old monitor. My Mini was hooked up with a Monoprice mini DVI to DVI cable at home. When I got home, I swapped the Monoprice cable out and replaced it with an Apple mini DVI to DVI adaptor connected to a standard DVI cable, and my Mini runs like new. It also runs 10-15 degrees Celsius cooler. I postulate that the Monoprice cable was stressing the video chip and causing other problems.
    I'm bummed because I was all set to get a new Mini or iMac.
    I hope this helps someone out there.

    I got a message from Monoprice's returns department verifying my shipping address; so I guess the lifetime warranty applies. I'll see if the problem goes away with a new Monoprice cable; but the computer is running like a champ right now.
    I'm not totally happy about that. I was getting pumped about needing a new computer; and how I'll have to put off the upgrade until the current Mini won't handle OS updates.

  • Gray screen at shutdown

    Ever since I upgraded to OSX Mavericks my 24" iMac (Intel 2.7GHz i5, 8 gig RAM) goes to a gray screen at shutdown and stays there.  Any suggestions are welcome.

    Reset the PRAM, try doing it 2-3 times then retest. Instructions are: Intel iMac SMC and PRAM resets

    =============================================
    Help appreciated.

    Well, this is back with vengeance.
    I've tried removing the Telestream software and the BlackBerry software and I still get a blank screen randomly. The last one happened last night when I tried to download AppCleaner to make sure all files from the above programs had been removed. As soon as I clicked 'download' it went blank and froze.
    This is persistent, and the annoying thing is that I can't get it to restart when I want. I tried pulling out the power cord for a while, several PRAM resets, Safe Mode, try to get into recovery disk to check the drive, etc, etc.
    Sometimes a few PRAM resets seem to work, other times it will go into the recovery disk, but most of the time it just seems to randomly boot up again after not working for ages. I can't find a pattern and I've tried this many times.
    At the moment I can't get it working. I've just removed some Crucial RAM that was installed to see if that helped, but to no avail.
    Bugging the life out of me.

  • Out of nowhere i get a black & gray screen saying to restart

    this has happened 3 times since ive gotten my 12" powerbook less than 3 weeks ago. just out of nowhere, doing normal tasks, i get a black & gray screen that takes up most of the screen. it says to press and hold the power button to restart the computer. why is it doing that? the only thing i can think of is my ram, cuz i upgraded it. but i ran the hardware checker from the installation dvds and it said everything was fine. nothing wrong with the ram or any hardware. so how do i fix this and why is it doing this? im not sure whether i had these peripherials connected the other times, but i use a 250gb firewire hard drive most of the time. and i had a 160gb usb hard drive connected this last time (dont use a whole lot). this time i had both connected though.

    Steve,,
    I've got an iMac G5 and have exactly the same problem. Mine started after I installed Tech Tool Pro. 4.5 update and eDrive. I took the eDrive off but it didn't help and start-ups were only occasionally successful (the computer was getting confused between my system and the eDrive's system).
    I ran Tech Tools, Disc Warrior and Disk Utility - all from disc, but to no avail. I will always get the black and grey "crash" screen when the computer is cold, and may have to restart 3 or 4 times before the computer runs. Then it is unstable for 5 or 10 more minutes and may crash in the middle of any activity. Nothing seems to be lost in the crashes and I run Disk Utility every time I get the system up and running. It always gives me this message:
    Determining correct file permissions.
    We are using special permissions for the file or directory ./Library/Widgets. New permissions are 16877
    We are using special permissions for the file or directory ./usr/lib/php/build/acinclude.m4. New permissions are 33060
    I'll check my hardware as was suggested by another user. Thanks for sharing your "challenge".

  • ITunes causing Blue Screen of Death

    Okay, I am running Vista, as it was my only option at the computer store. At random times in iTunes it will freeze and cause the blue screen of death. This is a serious problem for me because I have poured a couple hundred dollars into iTunes and now I can't even consistently get the stuff I bought because it may cause my system to crash. I have tried the latest version of iTunes, and the 7.2 version, and they both cause the same problem.
    Thanks

    I had the same problem last night. This started when I began downloading podcasts to my iPhone. Received the blue screen when iTunes began to sync with the iPhone. I'm going to try removing the podcast subscriptions and see if the blue screens stop. I have been running other basic Microsoft Office, Photoshop, and standard HP software with no problems until this occurred. I have not had any other blue screens since I bought the HP in June.
    As a separate issues, I can not play any podcasts on iTunes for more than a couple a seconds. iTunes terminates prematurely. I'm using the latest iTunes software.

  • Blue screen on shutdown/restart

    My PM has frozen with the blue screen and gearwheel on a couple of occasions recently. This appears to be associated with a general system slowdown after Aperture has been running for some time.
    I did a search of the firum, and the closest I could find was this thread, which related shutdown problems to network drives. While my PM is on a network, these problems have only occurred with system slowness and Aperture.
    I checked the console logs, but I really don't know where to start.
    What diagnostics can be run to identify the cause of the problem before I start trying disk repair etc?

    Hi, Nigel.
    You might want to treat the "freezes and hangs" problem similar to a kernel panic as the basic troubleshooting and hardware testing steps are virtually the same. See my "Resolving Kernel Panics" FAQ.
    Good luck!

  • Itunes causing Blue Screen of Death on Windows 7

    Every time I open Itunes 9 it eventually crashes my computer and takes me to the Blue Screen of Death. I recently updated from vista to Windows 7. I've reinstalled itunes repeatedly and tried both 32 and 64-bit installs. Any suggestions would be very helpful.

    I had the same problem just now. I've had iTunes on my computer since I got it (the day Windows 7 came-out), and have had the hardest time getting it to run properly. I left it on the fill the library with my music, and came back to see the Blue Screen. I've had that Blue Screen 2 times already, and I'm not sure if the first 2 times were because of iTunes or not (although iTunes wasn't running the first 2 times, so possibly not).

  • Why does opening iTunes cause my screen resolution to change automatically?

    Recently opening iTunes started automatically changing my screen resolution.  When I close iTunes the screen resolution reverts back to normal.  Does anyone now why this is happening or how I can make it stop?  I am also unable to view my music library, ipod and contents, paylists etc.... in a column on the left side of iTunes like I used to be able to do.  Any help with that issue?

    I have tha same problem on the same Mac with CS6 Design Standard.
    And I don't know how repair it.
    Maybe does it happen for the switching of the graphic card from Intel HD to Nvidia GeForce?

  • Won't get past white screen on shutdown/restart

    When I choose shut down or restart on my 2012 rMBP, it logs out and moves to the white screen. From what I've seen, for an unlimited time.
    When it does this (which I think is every time), my only option is press-and-hold standby key - which I hate doing!
    This has been a problem since before Mavericks. I've tried resetting pram, repairing permissions etc etc. any other advice?
    Even just a list of things to check which I may have already would be appreciated so I can discount them.

    Been looking for a solution to this for ages and still no luck.
    Even when I boot up in Safe Mode I still get infinite white screen when I shut down!!

  • MBA 11" gray screen, requires hard restart

    I've read the threads on MBA problems, and mine seems different. No kernel panic. No flicker.
    I have it plugged into an external Samsung monitor, no probs. And suddenly (typically during idle periods), it goes gray. Unplugging from monitor does no good. I have to do a hard reset.
    Anyone seen anything like this?

    Hi, Were you able to resolve this issue? My MBA also has the same symptoms--the screen just goes gray and the computer needs a hard reset. No kernel panics, nothing in the logs. This happens totally at random times. Sometime it freezes again within minutes of rebooting--it happened while I was drafting this! I have the latest upgrades. I took it to a genius who tested the hardware and said it's fine. Following some suggestions on the discussion boards I have reset the NV/PRAM as well, but that didn't help.
    This is my first Mac and I really want to love it but this issue is so irritating and makes the device unreliable as well

  • Blue Screen on shutdown/restart with Lenovo T60

    I have a Lenovo T60 and for the past 6 weeks on shut down/restart I get the blue screen message with a Stop 0x0000008E, update Bios.  On defragmentation, there is a snap-in error.
    Here's what I've done so far: all drivers have been checked and updated (no errors), defragmented the hard drive, all spyware/virus checks have been done, a memory test was done and no problems were found, and there is no new hardware or software installed.  Computer is current on its updates.  
    Yet, every time I shut down or restart, I get the blue screen error with the previously mentioned message.  
    Did anybody else have this problem?  How did you fix it?  Any ideas?

    This is a very weird BSOD indeed. I did check a few things for you and Microsoft recommends updating the service pack and replacing the RAM. See this link:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315335
    I know that you ran the memory test, but did you actually swap the memory modules out? Also, are you able to run Windows in safe mode? If you can get in safe mode, you might be able to use "System Restore" to roll back your registry settings to an earlier date before before you started having problems with this BSOD.
    Hopefully this will get you started. If you need additional assistance you're more than welcome to let us know.

  • Macbook Pro Stuck at Apple Logo (gray screen) and keeps restarting

    I've a problem with my Macbook Pro wherein it keeps getting stuck at the Apple Logo upon restarting (no spinning wheel). It eventually restarts itself maybe after 5 minutes but still keeps getting stuck in the grey screen where the Apple Logo comes up.
    I've tried restarting this with CMD+R  to do a "fsck -fy" and here's what I keep getting (attached picture). This screen eventually exits and my Mac restarts itself and gets stuck at the Apple Logo (grey screen).
    I think this maybe a HD problem (possibly some corrupt files). Any suggestions/similar experiences? Any chance this can be resolved without reinstalling OS X?
    Thank you!!!

  • Persistant gray screen

    My 2+ year old emac running 10.1.x seems to be in serious trouble. While playing a few tunes through iTunes it suddenly stopped and went to sleep. Upon awakening, there was the dreaded gray screen. After restart, the screen goes to gray. 30 seconds later, a folder icon appears with the alternating double face/question mark icon. I placed the system cd in the tray and restatrted. The cd spins, I hold down the c key and nothing happens.
    What next. It seems quite unresponsive.

    If your OS X Install CD is really 10.1.x, it's an old version of Disk Utilty that's not particularly capable. A 2+ year old eMac should be running some version of 10.3.x, but Disk Utility prior ro 10.4.2 is much better at recognizing problems than at fixing them. (For 10.4.2 and later, see Handling "overlapped extent allocation" errors reported by Disk Utility or fsck).
    I've had good sucess using DiskWarrior to recover from badly damaged directory problems. Before buying a third-party utility, through (since there's no guarentee it'd work in your case), try the single-user fsck steps in the earlier link. (As with booting from the optical drive, you need to keep the 's' key down for what certainly feels like an appreciable time for it to kick in.) If fsck reports making repairs, repeat the process until it reports all clear.

  • Windows 2003 R2 Gray Screen Hang on HP DL380 G5 when restarting or shutdown after Nov/Dec 2011 Windows Update

    I’ve 4 identical HP DL 380 G5 Servers with Windows 2003 R2 Std.  The 4 machines have the same Windows driver version and motherboard BIOS version.  2 have no problem.  2 have problems after Nov/Dec 2011 Windows Update!
    After running for a few days from power-up, the 2 problem servers will hang at gray screen during restart.  After clicking for restart,
    - The Event Log service will stop normally so there is no more error log can be seen!
    - The IP ping to the server can still work.  The mouse pointer in Windows can still be moved.
    - The Windows shutdown gray screen can be shown.
    - [Ctrl-Alt-Del] has stopped to function.
    Then the system just freezes at that status.  I can only cold-boot the system!
    After power-up again, I can do the Windows restart / shutdown normally!  But after a few day of running, the above symptom repeats!  The symptom happened since I installed the Windows Update in Dec 2011.  It didn’t happen before that!
    Anyone can give a hint on how to diagnose it?

    Hi,
    In order to troubleshoot the server hang issue, you can first preform a clean boot on the problematic system.
    Steps:
    ====================
     1. Click Start->Run…->type
    msconfig and press Enter
    2. Click Services tab and select Hide All Microsoft Services
    and Disable All third party Services
    3. Click Startup tab and Disable All startup items
    4. Click OK and choose Restart
    5. After reboot, check whether the problem still occurs
    If the server hang on issue still continues in clean boot mode, for the further troubleshooting, you may check in the Task Manager to see which process takes the memory resources.
    Meanwhile, you can also use reliability and performance Monitor to track down what cause the performance issue.
