Laptop freezes after typing in password at log in screen

I recently purchased a Dell Inspiron 5040 laptop model 115N-28180, and after I type in my password it freezes on the welcome screen and will not move from there.
Sometimes it only gives me a blank black screen when I reboot it. I can get into the desktop in safe mode without any problems, and have also ran the f12 repair and no problems showed up. I also tried holding down the power button with the battery out and only using the AC adapter for power. I changed user accounts and deleted the old one thinking there may be a problem there but that still didnt work. If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it!!!!

Do you have a shell initialization script for this remote account?
Does this shell initialization script echo/print anything to standard out? If so, this can totally screw up sftp or scp connections.
Shell initialization files could be one of the following:
.bash_profile
.bash_login
.profile
.bashrc
This assumes 'bash' is your shell (the Mac OS X deftaul). If you have a different shell, the shell initialization file names would different.
If you are using 'bash', try adding the following to the beginning of any 'bash' shell initialization script you are using
[[ ${-#*i} = ${-} ]] && return
This will stop the bash shell initialization script from running when you are not doing an interactive login, such as sftp or scp.

When logging in into yahoo mail after typing in password Firefox is adding something, login fails all the time. At yahoo mail Notepad does not work because it is impossible to close the list of items and they cover information, so I have to go to IE.

When logging in into yahoo mail after typing in password Firefox is adding something, probably remembered password and login fails all the time. At yahoo mail Notepad does not work because it is impossible to close the list of items and they cover information, so I have to go to IE.

Only when i go to a different browser (like IE) after i clear it , then all that shows up is the pages i visited in IE , that is what bugs me , why is IE browsing history sowing up in Firefox ??
Basically , i can clear the history in Firefox , and then for a example , go to Craigslist , using IE7 (launching it from a complete different Icon , in other words at that time i never open Firefox) , then after closing out , or even leaving open as it does not seem to matter , i go into Firefox , and hit History , and there is every place i visited in IE7 , on my History in Firefox

Progress Bar after typing in password. OS X Yosemite

I just updated to OS X Yosemite and it seems to be working fine but is any one else experiencing a progress bar appearing after entering in their password to access their computer?
it seems like this progress bar should show when the apple logo appears and not after typing in password
is it supposed to be like this?
MacBook Pro with Retina Display, OS X Yosemite (10.10)

After further investigation, it is not the displaying of "Today" files that is the issue. It appears that Finder / Favorites / All My Files is not correctly finding & displaying files when using the View / Arrange By / Date Last Opened criteria. If I switch the criteria to / Date Modified, it finds & displays the file correctly. See attached screen shots. (It is possible that this problem existed before Yosemite, as I don't recall which criteria Finder was using before the upgrade.)

Frozen after typing (correct) password. HELP!

Any ideas before I do a hard reset?
As of last night, my Blackberry isn't fully unlocking after I type my password. I type the correct password and hit enter, the password entry section turns dark (or it will stay on the "Enter Password screen" and appear to freeze). (If I type the wrong password it simply prompts me again, so i know I am typing the correct password). This is after multiple battery pulls.
Sometimes after typing the correct password, I can hold down the blackberry button and it will bring up the box that lets me switch to BBM, the browser, the Home Screen, etc and I can "switch" to that program, but there is a sort of frozen shadow of the Enter Password box over what ever app I switch to and I can't use the trackball or keyboard in those apps.
This "frozen box' is preventing me from using any application on my BB!
I CAN receive calls. Barely. I can only make calls if I pull battery and DON'T unlock the phone and go to the Place Call option.
I upgraded to OS 5 over a week ago and things were fine until last night. I can hear my BB when it receives messages (the tones work) or txt etc but can't read anything due to the lock up!!
The only suspect is Google Talk which I installed two days ago and seemed to be hogging resources and draining the battery, however the phone worked fine for about a day with it on. Perhaps Google Talk is launching at startup and hanging things up? I doubt it but this is full disclosure.
I have also, pulled battery and removed the micro-sd card to see if that had any affect -- alas to no avail.
One analogy I can think of is it as if the Windows Explorer is hung but everything else is working.
THOUGHTS?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Try this:
1) Make sure you have Blackberry Desktop Manager installed.
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/desktop/
2) On your PC, go to Start > Run and copy and paste the following line exactly (meaning with the quotation marks):
"c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader\loader.exe" /nojvm
3) The Application Loader Wizard will appear -- click "Next."
4) In the "Connection:" drop-down menu, you should see "USB-PIN: UNKNOWN". Click the "Next" button.
5) You should then see a list of applications ready to be installed for your Blackberry. Try UNclicking on the Google Talk app and remove it from the device and let's see if that is the issue.
NOTE: If you do not see a list of applications mentioned in step 5 and instead see the message "The Blackberry Desktop Software does not have Blackberry Device Software for the device that you have connected to the computer. Contact your wireless service provider or system administrator," then you must download Blackberry's Operating System for your carrier and device.
http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/BlackBerry_Operating_System_Downloads
Just select the appropriate carrier and network type, select your Blackberry model from the list and download the latest version. Install this download and follow the above steps again and you should be on the right path.

I´ve just transferred all my information and set up from my old Mackbook to my new Mackbook Air. When finished I tried to go in (my user name was transferred correctly), after typing my password a message said could not log in. help please

I had my old Mac with filevault protected so I disabled the filevault to remigrate my info. but when I srtarted using the migration assistant it is taking too long time looking for computers with no more progress...so I can´t remigrate and of course the new mac air does not allow me log in.

All I had to do was complain. I synced my iPhone to the Windows machine, checked the other account at iTunes prompting (where no apps had shown up previously), reconnected the iPad, and 140 apps downloaded including the App Store. I have no idea why.

and the laptop wouldn't wake from the sleep mode....
please help me this is urgent...as for im leaving my home country for studies.

Hello Malith Ratnayake,
After changing the old RAM by the new one, this issue occurs?
If the issue doesn’t occur when you change back to use old ram, I think it is the RAM hardware issue.
Please contact the hardware manufacturer for better support.

After typing master password in session can I force typing master password again without ending current session and starting new session?

Sometimes after using the master password to access an account during a given firefox session I would like to "revoke" this ability for automatic access (i.e. require typing the master password again) without having to end the current session and restart firefox.
While it is nice to only have to type the master password once per session, there are times when after starting some action I would like to leave the browser unattended for a short time but prevent others from accessing sensitive information at other sites if they do not know my master password. Note this is not the same as "locking the browser." Presently the only way I know to force this is to kill the current session and restart the browser but this is not very satisfactory if I actually want to stay connected (authorized) at a particular site. I would hope that adding a button on the security tab to "require master password for current session" would be a simple fix to implement? Thank you for your attention.

While waiting for a response to this question, I stumbled upon a partial (good workaround) answer to my question in the form of a Firefox addon, Master Password Timeout [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/master-password-timeout/ ]. Among other things it adds "Logout Master Password" as an option under the Firefox "Tools" menu which then gives the functionality I was looking for.
It seems to me though that this is a basic security option that would be good for a general Firefox user to be aware of since leaving a browser open unattended with no master password required could easily lead to trouble. Before finding this addon I was not aware that Firefox 4 had a 30 minute default timeout for the master password. At least in my case I have left Firefox going overnight on home computers and have not had to retype the master password the next morning... so somehow I missed having this "default" set when I upgraded to Firefox 4.

Macbook pro will not login after typing in password.

Whenever I type in the password, pressing enter will just highlight the password I typed in and do nothing. Whenever I click the enter button, nothing happens either. I can still use the media keys and play songs through spotify... I just cannot login. Whenever I hold the power button down, nothing happens either, I can't even turn it off.

I closed the laptop, came back and opened it, and that's how the problem happened.

HT1689 I get an unknown error after typing my password..unable to purchase songs or apps.

I get "unknown error" after I input my password to buy songs or apps. Had no trouble last week.

I am having the same issues. My apple ID works from everywhere else (icloud, appstore, iphone, ipad), just does not work in iTunes.

Gx740 Screen and laptop freeze after vbios update

hello
since i had some overheating issue i google and find the vbios update for the radeon hd5870 on the msi webpage
now since i have updated no game will play they all freeze as soon as i enter the game. in windows it freeze when i put video in full screen etc. as soon as the video card get load everything freeze and the sound loop for about 4-5 seconde.
i then did my homework and found on the forum many solution like flashing also the EC and bios. nothing worked
i then looked for the driver and did a clean driver install. didn't worked
so after a load of test i'm pretty sure the problem is the vbios (that i tryed to flash a second time to be sure it was not a error on the first update)
it there someone who have a old vbios for the gx740 vbios i'll test to downgrade it in order to see if that fix my problem
thanks
Wescotte

Can I really be the only person having this problem? I have dl'd the combo pack for the update & I'll install it this evening and see if that makes a difference. Again, any insight would be appreciated.

Flash 11.5.1 freezes after typing F9 for actions-window

Hello together,
we've installed Creative Suite 5.5 Production Premium on a Samsung P560 Notebook under Windows Vista Business 32Bit. The installation routine finished succesfully and we were able to start flash. There we can use nearly everything but the action-window. As soon as we type F9 or choose Window -> Actions F9 the program starts to work until it gives no feedback. We've already updated CS5.5 with all available patches. The Nvidia-Driver for the GeForce9600M GS graphics card was also updated. Has anyone an idee what could provoke this behaviour? Further more it would be interesting if there are logs in which the application could write occuring failurs?
Thanks a lot and with best regards
David
