Kernel panic and distorted screen on startup - mac book pro c.2008 on os x 10.4! HELP!
I've had my mac book pro since 2007/8, it's on os x 10.4, and has worked well until last night when the screen froze in a crazy distorted pattern and I had to turn it off. Now it kernel panics every time i turn it on and it attempts to start up with the same crazy distorted pattern across the loading screen and even the kernel panic message.
I don't have the start up discs with me.
I've tried the troubleshooting for kernel panics i.e.
1. holding [shift] when start up - did nothing
2. holding [option + command + p + r] when start up - chimed three times but wouldn't load after this
3. holding [command + s] on start up to boot in single user mode - it loads the logs but with the same crazy distortion and when i try to exit to boot in single user mode it won't do anything
so that is where i am up to... really need my laptop for work and about to leave the country to travel so need it asap - i'm in melbourne and the apple store is miles out of city - any suggestions on reliable apple retailers also gratefully received...
anyone any ideas on the damage/ cause/ possible solution???
i love my mac. please don't die.
If this happened spontaneously and not as the result of a software update or any other change that you made, then it's probably due either to a hardware failure or to data corruption. There isn't much you can do without the installation disc, and maybe not even with the disc. If you can boot in single-user mode, run fsck as prompted on the screen. If it finds problems, run it again.
Any authorized Apple dealer should be able to provide service, but it may take more time than you have.

IMac G4 800MHz - Kernel Panics and Blank Screen At Startup
Two days ago, I was listening to iTunes, just browsing the internet, and suddenly I got a kernel panic. Yesterday, the exact same thing happened. After that, I got frustrated and just left it alone until today. When I attempted to turn on my iMac G4 800 MHz today, the screen does not turn on and the mouse does not even receive power. The only thing that appears to receive power is the power LED on the display.
I experimented with it for a few minutes and found that if I unplug the power cord for a few minutes, plug it back in, and turn the computer back on, the screen will turn on. However, as soon as I log in, I get another kernel panic, and it goes back to the screen not turning on.
Any suggestions?::UPDATE::
Okay, I eventually got my iMac to start up successfully, without crashing after logging in. But I still thought there was something wrong so I booted from the Apple Hardware Test CD that came with my computer and I got yet ANOTHER Kernel Panic! Here is what it said:
Kernel Panic Message:

This message appeared soon after it began testing the memory. The result of the test were as follows:
Test Results:
Airport Passed

And now it is back to not booting up at all!
Does anyone have any suggestions based on the new kernel panic message?
Thank you for your help.

Kernel panics and grey screen on startup
Hello savvy bunch,
I recently acquired a wonderful little Core Solo mini. My plan was to
run it starting up from a 400GB hard drive in an external FW enclosure
that has another 200GB drive I was going to use for backups. Long
story short, the 400GB drive starting giving me weird Finder problems
and such. Booting from the internal HDD in the mini fixed everything.
Then it started having sudden kernel panics at random moments (I could
be writing an email, browsing on Safari, whatever), after which upon
restart I get an empty grey screen that lasted forever. I tried
several fixes, and the only one that worked was unplugging the FW
enclosure. I erased and fixed both external HDDs, and things calmed
down for a while, but I just had another kernel panic-grey screen
episode, which I solved turning off the FW enclosure.
I remember now that I had similar problems before with the same
enclosure/HDDs and my Quicksilver. Could the problem be the enclosure,
or the hard drives themselves?
TIA,Oh, don't worry, I know and use all the right protocols for mounting and unmounting FW drives. They only get turned off AFTER they are dismounted. Of course now I realize that you wouldn't think so the way I described what I was doing. (That was some lazy writing, I guess.) I also have several external drives in use with several other computers. It's this particular enclosure that seems to be trouble.
As far as brands go, this is some kind of generic two-drive enclosure I got from OWC on a big sale a while back. I cannot find a brand name for the life of me (and I have looked all over it). I have not had a lot of luck with two-drive enclosures. This is my second (the first one was I think a Newertech or some other OWC brand, which died very quickly on me. The HDDs survived and are still in use.)
As for Lacies, Smokerz, you are completely right. My first FW enclosure ever was a Lacie, and it's still going strong. I have my eye on a Lacie 1TB enclosure that's in Newegg for $99... -
Help with kernel panic and freezing screen?
A few months ago I had kernel panic screens about twice, but the problem didn't recur again for a while. Over the last two weeks, however, I've had two more kernel panics, and the screen freezes (mouse, all actions, etc) and the machine has to be manually restarted about every five minutes.
I've tested the two ram sticks, erased and re-installed the OS but had no luck resolving the issue.
I followed the link on resolving kernel panic problems from earlier threads to troubleshoot as much as possible. I don't have the original software so can't do a few steps, but on the whole have had no luck.
I don't have any external or USB devices hooked up when it fails. I do occasionally use USB pen drives, but that doesn't seem to be related. I bought a new, non-apple power source a while back, too, but also don't think that's related.
Before I bought the laptop from a friend, he installed a different hard drive, but I believe it came from another G4 Ti machine. He left two screws out of the bottom of the case.
I'm thinking mainboard or possible hard drive? Any ideas?
Also, since reinstalling the harddrive, I've had no error report message come up when the machine restarts, and there isn't an error log file, at least not for kernel panics (that I can find.) Before I reinstalled the OS, I read the error reports and they said something about kernels....but I don't remember what, specifically.
If there are other useful logs I could post, let me know and I'll find them. Are the console logs or directory service logs of any use?
Thanks in advance for any help or any advice...!
PowerBook G4 Ti Mac OS X (10.4)
PowerBook G4 Ti Mac OS X (10.4)Hi tjk
- Thanks for the help.
I've tested the two ram sticks
How?
I took out each stick one at a time and ran the machine with a single instead of both.
I have dual 256 sticks. The original, and a Samsung which came with it when I bought it used.
In both cases, the same problem occurred.
How much free space do you have available on your HD?
If not 5GB or more, this could be causing issues.
I had about 20GB free. Now it's running with 70Gb free and still the same problems. It's an 80 GB hard drive that was installed into the PB when I bought it a few months ago. I had the machine for about three weeks first, and didn't have any of these problems with the other hard drive in it.
I don't have the install disk, so can't run the disk utility repair, correct. I've also not been able to get the PB to boot from the disk instead of the hard drive. It brings up only the hard drive as a selection to boot from, and spins up the OSX DVD, then ejects it each time.
...not sure why...I've been holding down option when restarting to boot from other drives -- if there's another way to boot from the disk, maybe that would work...
Have a look at the Orange Ribbon Cable Issue/Fix and see if
it might apply to your PB. Which Ti do you have btw?
This is a really interesting link and for a bit I thought it sounded exactly like the problem...but I have the original TiBook, 500 Mhz so the trackpad cable doesn't run through the same spot. Maybe there's something else shorting out or pinching underneath...I'll take a look, but I'm not necessarily hardware savvy enough to know what to look for.
Thanks again for any suggestions.

My screen on my mac book pro goes blank for no reason when I use f1 and f2 keys it comes back
You can blank the monitor using those keys, that's likely what you did, it's a feature.

My wife has been having problems with Safari, and many third party software and malware programs infecting her Mac Book Pro. I have tried to reset Safari but it keeps coming back, taking over Safari, changing defaults, start pages, and search engines, Etc.
Is it safe to use programs like MacKeeper, who keeps send my wife's computer message and alerts, or should I just wipe the drive and start over?
SkipI am having lot's of lag time with Safari, etc..
I'll type in a website.. and it will take 15-20 seconds to start..

I cannot find screen shots on Mac Book Pro 2014, they do not appear on my desktop. Where might they be?

Ah the devil is in the details
Adding the shift key to the command places the screen shot in the clipboard as Hiroto pointed out.
To get the file on the Desktop just remove the shift key.
Or as Mark Twain said
The difference between the almost right word and the right word is really a large matter -- 'tis the difference between the lightning bug and the lightning.

Yosemite update, MAC Book Pro early 2008 - Dead like. Overheated, Blank screen
Before 3 days I installed the latest updated for Yosemite. After the update, I make the laptop “sleep”. But I noticed that while sleeping the power LED indicator behaved in a strange way. Also the laptop was very hot and after couple of hours of sleep, It count be powered on.
I pull out the battery and power cable to cool id down. After that is was OK.
This same scenario was repeating last 2 day, always while the laptop was off/in-sleep.
Now no the 3th day, I noticed the battery is drain out. Now it is fully recharged, but the Laptop want to power on.
After powering on, the Led indicator is glowing like (half-intensity) and noting happens. The screen is blank.
Can someone advise me, what to do?
Some notes:
================
-The device is MAC Book Pro early 2008
-The battery is New, used for about 3 weeks, without problems
-I tried and alternative (old, original) battery, but it is the same. Which makes me think the problem isn`t in battery.
-It happened right after the Yosemite update.
-While sleep it was very hot
-LED indicator behaves strange
Thank you for any advice or tip.Sorry for the spelling I am dyslex.....
I had this happen to.
For some unknown resin my 2.5Ghz MacBook Pro overheated and witch killed it. Requires a new Logic Board.
Resions for this diagnoses:
1) The laptop was running Sarfia in Yosemite before before I closed the lid.
2) I did not take note that when I had put the laptop down it had not gone to sleep.
3) When after 3 hours shopping, I picked the laptop up it was VERY! hot on the bottom (much hotter than it has ever been) (and it was not the battery)
4) Before I got it turned off by pressing the power button the fans where running but not fast.
5) I let it cool down before trying to turn it back on.
6) I tried all the reset operations
7) The disk drives (HDD and Optical) spin up and did the diags.
What I don't know is:
1) Why did not the thearmail shutdown not kick in?
2) Why when I picked it up and it was clearly VERY HOT! the fans where not running fast?
3) If the OS was doing something (update while asleep)?
4) If the OS was doing something how and why did it stop the fans spinning fast to keep the laptop cool.
Sadley I now have to shell out for a new Logic Board. -
Screen on my Mac Book Pro goes out randomly when I touching trackpad.
The screen on my Mac Book Pro goes out randomly when I touch my trackpad. Every time the screen shuts off, I have to restart my computer so the screen will turn on again and it's driving me nuts.
Does anyone have any idea why this is happening and a solution?
Thanks
KevinYou can blank the monitor using those keys, that's likely what you did, it's a feature.

Two questions, does resetting my Mac Book Pro late 2008 speed up after resetting? Also, do i need to get rid of my WLAN router to make my AIR PORT time capsule work?
Am grateful for any answers...its a 15,4"...
Will soon buy a new one, is battery better on 13 than 15 "?
Have a great day...If you mean restoring OS X, that won't necessarily have any effect on speed.
Not enough free space on the startup disk can slow your Mac down.
Click your Apple menu top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info > Storage
Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.

No need for the WLAN router with AirPort Time Capsule. -
I purchased a HDMI cable to watch movies and slide shows from my mac book pro to my Sony Bravia TV. I get picture through the TV but no sound. What am I doing wrong?
Go to sounds in system pref and select outputs. When the hdmi cable is plug into the tv it will show as an option under output. Just select that option.

Helpful Links Regarding Flashback Trojan and Virus Protection
An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
A link to a great User Tip about the trojan: Flashback Trojan User Tip.
To check for the trojan: Anti Flashback Trojan 2.0.4.
A Google search can reveal a variety of alternatives on how the remove the trojan should your computer get infected. This can get you started. Or the preferred method is to use Apple's protection tool: Flashback Malware Removal Tool 1.0.
Or, open Software Update. If you do not have the Apple protection software installed it will download and install it via Software Update. If no update appears that means you either already have it installed or it isn't needed for your system. The software is only available for Leopard, Snow Leopard, and Lion versions of OS X.
Also see Apple's article About Flashback malware.
For general anti-virus protection I only recommend using ClamXav.
For the DNS Changer malware see the following:
