Mac OS X Server not loading

I rebooted my mac mini server and now the OS is not loading: all I see is a gray screen with the Apple logo and a rotating cursor. I've tried to load it in the command line (Cmd + S) and ran fsck -fy. Found no issues, reboot, got the same gray screen with a rotating cursor.
Help!

I ended up reinstalling the OS. Called Apple's support, that the best they could do.

  • Suddenly my .mac/.me email will not load on my macbook

    suddenly my .mac/.me email will not load on my macbook.  got err messages requesting my pasword and added password and nothing has loaded. 

    Your signature says you are using 10.5.6 - is this correct. Leopard is not compliant with iCloud's requirements.
    You have been using MobileMe's email settings, which sometimes continue to work for a time after migration but then get turned off. iCloud's mail server settings are different. Strictly speaking Lion 10.7.2 is required for iCloud, and on that Mail is set up automatically.
    Leopard cannot access most of iCloud's facilities, however you can set Mail up manually to access your email. The method is described here:

    You may also need to change your pasasword if it's not compliant with Apple's requirements - at least 8 characters, of which at least one must be a numeeral and one a capital letter.

    Safari Problems
    Safari - Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
    Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
    Isolating an issue by using another user account
    If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

  • Why is my mac book blank and not loading when I turn it on?

    Why is my mac a blank screen when I turn it on and not loading?

    Also please include your model, year, which OSX you are using, this will help anyone reading this to offer advice.

    A couple of shots in the dark here.
    Try this, start in safe mode and see if it will go. Power it off, power it on holding the shift key, continue to hold the key till you see a progress BAR, then release and see if it will finish booting. If it does login see if thigs work, then log out and try booting normally. (NOTE that this takes considerably longer,be patient)
    Another thing you can try is powering it up holding the OPTION key and see if the start up manager brings your HD up on the screen, if it does click on that and see.

  • Mac App Store Will Not Load At All

    Hello all,
    I just received my new MacBook Pro a few days ago, and after booting it the first time upgraded to the most recent Mac OS X (10.6). This of course installed the Mac App Store.
    The Mac App Store will open but will not load - period. It will not allow me to sign in, just always says loading and it never actually does (it does occasionally say that the store is unable to process my request, and to try again later).
    At any rate, it's been several days now, and I'm getting quite frustrated. I've removed the program and reinstalled the 10.6 upgrade just to see if that would help, and it didn't. The Mac App Store simply won't do anything except listing "Loading" indefinitely.
    Any help that anyone can give would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi,
    Yesterday i performed all updates available for my macbook pro, and now i have a few problems:
    - I cannot open my "mac app store", when i try to start the application the sign "moves" a couple of times in my dock, but it wont open. (thereafter the sign disappears since i don't have a shortcut on my dock). I tried to enter those lines in the terminal, this didn't help.
    - Also when i want to open some documents (pdf's, jpg's & exel files) preview & exel have the same problem, they just don't open. however, when i start the program myself i can open the documents (via archive) without a problem?!
    i hope you guys & gals can help me!
    Mvg,

    Has anyone else used a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 4GB on a mac in AE? We just got one from Macvidcards and AE seems really slow starting and closing.

  • Help!  New to Mac! Pictures will not load on Safari (blue question marks)

    Sometimes when I surf the web (especially sites like Facebook.com), pictures will not load. They turn into little blue check marks. Eventually, none of the pictures on the webpage will load. I have to shut down Safari, reboot my computer, and then pictures load again for a little while. Any advice? Please help!

  • Mac mail sometimes does not load gmail messages

    Several times a week my mail will not load some messages. Most times it works fine. My iphone always gets the mail. What's up with that?

    When you guys say turn ON and OFF, are you referring to "show in IMAP" checkbox in the "Labels" tab in gmail?  As superwhatever mentioned, Apple initially told me to make sure these are showing so that Mail.app picks them up.  If I uncheck "All Mail" and "Important" wont that just mkae Mail.app skip downloading thosemessages that are in Important and All Mail?  Instead shouldn't Mail.app's "Inbox" be set to also incorporate those message that are in Important and All Mail?  This was so much of a headach for me back when the original problem surface that I just stopped using Mail.app and purchased Mailmate.  Since then though, I'm missing certain key functions that Mail.app has and want to take another stab at resolving this.
    On my iphone it shows that I have 18 unread messages for my company account, while in Mail.app it shows only 2 unread.  The other 16 are found in "Important."  how does this get fixed?

  • Mac safari website server not responding

    I use my iPhone as hotspot for my MacBook Pro.
    While I could use my iPhone to go to "www.wheelessonline.com", I could not get to the website in Safari on my MacBook which states that "the server where this page is located isn't responding".
    Please kindly help me out. Thank you very much.

    Hello koala148,
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Does this issue only occur with this specific website? I was able to load it up fine on my Mac, so we may need to troubleshoot the network connection on your MacBook Pro. For information on doing so, please see the following resource:

  • FTP on Mac OS X Server - not accessible from outside

    I need to set up FTP on my mac mini urgently as I need to share over 0,5 TB of video material for a "last-minute" production.
    I have set everything up wth shares and all and have a "XYZ" user under "Local Network User" so i can give others this username/password and have services FTP and File Sharing enabled for this user. Yet I can not connect to my server via FTP and 21 port from outside world, although FTP is enabled both on router and as a service in Mac OSX Server app.
    What am I doing wrong? VPN and other services such as email and the rest are working like a charm.
    Thanks so much!

  • ACE: if one server is loaded and it want to use the server not loaded? how?

    If your server is running an SNMP agent, the ACE can use SNMP to pull stats from the server. You'll just need the correct OID. For instance, if you were using Linux, you might use something like the following as a probe:
    probe snmp linux-stats
    interval 10
    community public
    oid .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.10.1.5.1
    threshold 75
    .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.10.1.5.1 is the OID for CPU load average (for Linux, Windows would have a different OID). If it goes above 75, the server is marked as out. When used with the least-loaded predictor, it will also divert more traffic to the least loaded server, as defined by that OID. You can use multiple OIDs in conjunctions and give them different weights.
    However, judging from your timeout value of your get-http health check, I would check to see if the issue isn't that your servers are flapping because of a too-low receive threshold. Each server has 2 seconds to respond to the ACE, which may not enough time given that the servers may be getting a lot of traffic and you're doing these checks every 4 seconds.
    If one fails, the other gets all the traffic, until it is overloaded, and it fails. By this time, your other servers has calmed down, and gets all the traffic, and the cycle repeats itself. Check SNMP traps or SYSLOG to see if this is the case.
    Either way, you might want to change the timeout to 5 or 10, to give them more breathing room.

  • Mac Mail spins, but not load

    I have 3 different mail accounts that Mac Mail downloads from. 2 of them work fine, but as of yesterday one of the accounts simply spins, NEVER stopping and never downloading mail from the server. All of my settings (smtp, etc) are correct. While the account spins, I can't quit mail and have to force quit. Once I re-open mail after a force quit and shutting down, the spinning on that one account continues. I've checked with the server, and we can't find any problem on that end and I can go directly to the server and have mail in the "broken" account forwarded to one of my other 2 e-mail accounts that Mac Mail has no problem with. I'm stumped. Any ideas?
    Dan

    Hi Dan.
    It's a POP account and "remove copy from server after retrieving a message".
    Not sure what you mean. You haven’t really answered my question, have you?
    Try this to determine the scope of the problem:
    1. Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Accounts, and create a new user account for testing purposes.
    2. Either log out of your main user account or just quit Mail so that it does not interfere with the other user account.
    3. Log in as the newly created user and set up Mail anew there with the problematic POP account.
    4. Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Advanced and disable Remove copy from server after retrieving a message if it’s enabled.
    5. Check whether the problem also happens when logged in as another user.

  • When I sync iPad with Mac my photos are not loaded

    I Recently erased my Mac prior I backed it up to an external drive when I reloaded the information when I sync my Ipad the photos I have on the iPad are not there

    I'm not sure where the photos aren't - after syncing are they not on your iPad, or are expecting syncing to copy them from your iPad to  your Mac ?
    If not on the iPad then what type of photos are they ? If they were originally synced from your Mac then did your restore of your Mac put those photos back where they were on your Mac, and they are still selected on the iPad's Photos tab in your iTunes for syncing to the iPad ?

  • Xml on server not loading consistently

    I have a project in which I'm loading an xml file of about
    70kb in size. When testing, I'm finding that sometimes it loads
    properly, and sometime the user needs to click the browser's
    Refresh button before the xml will load.
    I'm using what I think is fairly common code:
    myData.onLoad = function(success) {
    if (success) {
    //code here parses the xml
    myData.load("myxmlfile.xml");
    The file always plays perfectly fine when played directly off
    of my PC, but I receive the inconsistent results when the files are
    loaded to the server. I assume that the xml file isn't being loaded
    properly or quickly enough all the time, but I can't figure out
    what the issuemight be. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
    Bill

    >>and sometime the user needs to click the browser's
    Refresh button before
    >>the xml will load.
    Hi Bill, the code you have looks ok. Is the movie doing the
    loading of the
    XML, being loaded by another movie - a preloader perhaps? If
    that's the case
    you probably need to delay the load call until the movie is
    fully loaded.
