Loud beep after restart after Safari update

hi all everything is fine. But there was a loud beep when MCP had to restart after Safari update today. Should i be concerned? Like said everything is working fine. And this was the first time i heard such a beep. Its always been the regular chime instead.

Roger: That article applies only to iMacs.
True but I'm willing to bet the same (at least for the tone heard) applies to the MBP too. Let me see if I can find an advice letter that states that. In the link I suggested earlier there is a link that leads to:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1557
That advice letter does refer to MBP's so it's feasible the same advice is true for MBP's. At least that's my logic.

Beep after system update...

Hi all...my G4 mac mini after a system update made a loud beep, and would not display video or turn on power to the keyboard...i tried restting nvram and pmu and nothing still. any help is appreciated...thanks!

Hi Vilem,
It sounds like you are experiencing a strange problem with regards to the system cache, either that - or your hard drive may be damaged. The chances of a hard drive failure are fairly low, especially if your system was working fine before the update, and therefore the problem is most likely to "software" based.
Here's what I suggest you try:
1) Un plug 'absolutely everything' from your mac mini - ensuring that no cables are plugged into any of the ports at the back - even the power!
2) Hold down the power button for 30 seconds and then plug in the power cord, whilst still holding down the power button. Ensure that the plug is in and switched on so that your mini has power.
3) Release the power button about 10 seconds after you have plugged in the power cable and then leave it to boot. If you hear the same sound then the problem is down to the hard drive and a call to Apple is your best bet.
4) If you didn't hear the loud beep - turn your mac mini back off and then connect only the keyboard - power it back up.
5) Repeat step 4 but instead, add your mouse to the back of the mac mini, not the back of the keyboard (you will be able to plug it into your keyboard later!)
6) Hopefully you will be able to successfully boot into OSX. Turn of your mac mini for the last time - plug your mouse into the back of your keyboard - power up and keep your right hand fingers-crossed =)
If all goes well, it is vital that you repair permissions in Disk Utility and maybe even download Onyx and run a "heavy" maintenance task to prevent anything like that from happening again.
Hope that I may have been of help!

Mac - Unable to install Adobe Flash Player after Safari update

After the latest Safari update (version 8.0.2) for Mac, I received a message that Flash Player was out of date. I downloaded the latest Flash DMG file and when updating it stalls at 32%. Running the latest update for Yosemite.
I've uninstalled all of Flash player and all files and folders related to Adobe Flash from the computer. I've turned off my anti-virus and firewall. It continues to stall at 32%. I've re-downloaded the flash update and continue to have the problem.
Any suggestions?
Mike

Try the offline installer:

After Safari Update, MS Word won't save

Has anyone else gotten the latest Safari update download, and found that MS has lost its ability to save newly created docs? The Safari update was what I did immediately before Word went funny. A reinstall of Word (Office Mac 2004) didn't help. Using latest OS 10.3.9 on a G5 dual 1.8GHz Power PC.

It seems now that the integrity of your OS is fine and that the problem is isolated to Office.
Is it possible that you may have installed an additional third-party component/plug-in to add functionality to Office? If so it might be an idea to locate and trash that. You might also want to trash the preferences at user/[insert user name]/library/preferences. Trashing preferences is often the first thing to do when an application starts crashing.
If the problem still persists then uninstalling and reinstalling might help. Hopefully the install disk has an uninstall option (I'm on the earlier version X so can't check). If you do this, then it would be a good idea to run disk repair/repair permissions first before reinstalling, and run repair permissions again after the install (this is good practice for any OS upgrade and major software installs).
I don't know about the MS crash reporter (none such thing is version X), but it always seems to me that these are to assist software developers to identify problems for future patches/upgrades and not to solve your particular problem(!). In the case of Apple, all one gets is a little "thanks for sending to Apple" balloon. You might want to try the support pages at: http://www.microsoft.com/mac/support.aspx
It's quite usual for applications to show up at HD and user level, so there's nothing wrong there.
As to the Safari crash, do you have any components such as Pith Helmet, Acid Search, Sogudi? These are usually located in SIMBL plug-ins folders and can sometimes cause crashes (I'm troubleshooting just such an issue with Pith Helmet right now).
I do hope you get up and running. The weather having improved here in London, I'm off to watch some cricket!

Loud beep when restarting.

Earlier today, I was in class and everything was running a bit slow on my Macbook. So I shut it down and about an hour later when I was back home I turned it on and it made a loud Beep. Then whenever I restart it makes the optical drive little sound like when waking from sleep and then the sleep indicator light flashes really fast. Then it makes a loud beep sound and starts booting. Also has my indicator light on the power cord always been red?
Thanks

i have no idea what is happening but if there is a apple store nearby they can take a look at it.

3 Beeps After Software Update, Will Not Start

Late 2012 Mac Mini. Updated OS X with Software Update, upon restart it is instead beeping 3 beeps in a row, silence, then 3 beeps in a row again, for hours. It's getting hot near the power cord. Screen is black. I finally powered down successfully by holding power button.
I've seen older posts saying this signals faulty RAM in Powerbooks. I did upgrade the RAM to 16 GB myself when I bought the Mac mini, it has always worked fine (apart from snowy screens when it first awakes or starts which eventually go away and I understand this update was supposed to address...).
Have I voided my warranty by installing the RAM myself?
What to do?

John, thanks. I ran the Apple Hardware Test, and the memory tested fine. The three beeps at start up has not returned since the original restart after the software update, so who knows what it was...

Rember, the free GUI front end for memtest is another memory test utility to consider.
The display may or may not be related to anything. It will be difficult to draw any conclusion without another display to substitute.

And concerning RAM, I've noticed I can't get the Mac to ever utilize even half of it... so I don't understand what the benefit is.
Correct, there is no benefit of additional RAM unless and until your system and what you do with it requires more than you have. OS X manages its resources efficiently, and there is no way to change how it does that.
I'm still getting snow when starting or awakening the Mac when the monitor has not been recently on, so there may be some interaction between the monitor and the Mac mini. (MultiSync LCD2470 monitor.) Because when the monitor has been running for a while I can restart the Mac without getting snow, usually. Turning the monitor off and on about three or four times usually gets rid of the snowy image and I get a picture. Every now and then it will abruptly turn to complete snow after having been on for hours, so who knows... I understood the snow problems were a common problem with the Intel integrated graphics and the recent software update(s) were meant to address it. It didn't help in my case.
At least I'm back to the original functionality from before the software update...

Can't access one website after safari update

After the Safari 5.1.4 update, I'm unable to access one particular site, the one that used to be my homepage. Trying to access it causes the browser and OS to freeze up for several minutes. Can't force quit or close. I'm able to access my other 'regular' sites. Thought?

Hi ...
Try emptying the cache and do a reset.
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache. Quit then relaunch Safari. Go to Safari > Preferences - General and make sure the homepage url is correct.
If that didn't help, back to the menu bar, click Safari > Reset Safari. Select the top 5 boxes, click Reset.
According to your profile you have Lion v10.7 installed.
Disabling the Lion resume feature can help with Safari...
Open System Preferences > General
Deselect: Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps
Restart your Mac.

Web dialoge boxes blacked out after safari update

After the last update to Safari 5.1.7 (7534.57.2) web dialoge boxes are blacked out in google Sketchup Ver. 8. The only reason (we) suspect it was Safari is a recent thread at Sketucation fourm in which many users of Sketchup that use Lion 10.7.4 seem to be the only ones effected by this maybe someone here can shed some light. There seems to be a workaroud in Sketchup by changing some css file but it's not working fo all dialoge boxes.

ITUnes won't work after Safari update

after today's Safari / Security update iTunes just won't open
anyone else having the same problem? Any suggestions?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
You could also try working through

Entire Library gone after Safari update.

I recently updated Safari and Java. Now when I open iPhoto my entire library is zero photos.
If I boot up to a system drive running the old Safari, the library still works fine. What the **** is your problem Apple? Is there some reason I can't have a current browser AND keep my thousands of photos?

Thanks for your reply Terence.
I couldn't get the Java chat in Facebook to work, so I figured I would update Java and my Safari to the latest versions. So I used Software Update and installed ONLY those two items.
I restarted and and it didn't help the chat issue, so I figured it was somekind of interuption in service at Facebook and moved on to do some photo editing in iPhoto almost immediately. It just says there are no Photos when I opened it.
I checked the package contents of my library, and all the photos are still there.
My Pictures folder has an alias that points to an external FireWird Hard drive for the Library because it's too big for my MacBook's HD. Same goes for my other iLife Apps. They all have aliases pointing to the external drive.
I decided to install Leopard on another volume and see what would happen.
I used the option to import my account from the newly updated boot volume to the reverted boot volume.
Sure enough all my photos were back, when booting to the boot volume that has the reverted Safari and Java.
Since then I have tried to delete the preferences for iPhoto, update iPhoto, update iLife Support, update Leopard to 10.5.8. Nothing corrects this problem.
Obviously neither the alias or the Library are corrupted because they both work fine when my account is imported to a system with the older software suite.
Having worked for Apple's own IT department, and owned dozens of models for decades, I have encountered stuff like this before many times, and yes it would not surprise me at all that someone has dropped a ball of some kind. As a loyal user of their products, you better believe I hold them to a higher standard than Windows, and I will absolutely make a stink about something as unacceptable as a whole library disappearing.
My data is all backed up, but I can just imaging someone who doesn't having this happen to them and causing a heart attack.

Gmail and Facebook not loading properly after Safari update.

I got this message when I tried to check my messages:
+Some Google Mail features have failed to load due to an Internet connectivity problem. If this problem persists, try reloading the page, using https, using the older version or using basic HTML mode.+
So I tried using the basic HTML mode which meant i could read my messages, but not send or delete them. This is frustrating.
After checking other peoples posts on this topic, i tried a few things. Including creating a new user account to check if it was only a problem with my regular user account. That was no dice. Then tried resetting Safari, that didnt work. Also deleted a few random files, for eg: com.apple.Safari.plist.
But still no joy. Can anyone help please?

It's not a problem with Safari; it's a problem with your connection, as the error message stated. Your ISP could be having poblems, the Gmail and/or Facebook servers could be having problems, or both. That would cause a problem with the data being trasnmitted and received by the browser, so it can't render everything that should be.
Did you try downloading another browser such as Firefox to see if it happens there, too?

Wireless improved after safari update

Viewing web pages in the newest safari is a lot less sluggish (read: faster). The signal stays fixed at 5 bars. I haven't seen this stable wifi network behaviour in a long time. Could it be that wireless network troubles were partly caused by safari 3?

I found some fixes to this problem if anyone is interested:
