Mac slows to boot

Hi,
After upgrading to Mavericks, my Mac is so slow to load the items after logged in. At grey screen with Apple logo, it boots normally but after logged in it loads the system slowly, about almost 1 minute. I tried reseting SMC, NVRAM, PRAM, Verify Disk and Repair Disk. The problem still persist. I also tried creating new user and logging in to my sister's account, both loads a little bit faser than my account. So I looked into Login Intems in System Preferences but there's only iTunesHelpter.
What's wrong with my account???
Thanks in advance.

  • HT6114 MAC Air slow to boot after 10.9.2 update.

    I have a 2011 MAC Air. After the 10.9.2 upgrade my laptop takes about 20 minutes to boot from power off. Once started it works fine, it is just extremely slow to boot. Prior to the update I could boot in about 10 seconds. Any thoughts how to resolve this issue?

    Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
    1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
        b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
         Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
         COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the
         computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager
         screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
         Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).
    4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).

  • Suddenly my MacBook Air is very slow to boot up. I'm running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63). Any tips? Thanks!

    Suddenly my MacBook Air is very slow to boot up. It's about a year and a half old. I'm running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63) -- and I'm far from being an expert at any of this stuff, have seen a few different answers and not sure what to do. Help! Grateful.

    Okay, I am having a try at this. My machine wouldn't boot this morning again (like I said, it's erratic, so I then did a "safe boot" and restarted. This is what I think (I hope...) you want. Here's the first part, tho you'll see I am struggling with Part 2.

  • Mac Pro slow to boot up (out of the box)

    My company bought 4 new Mac Pro units at the end of 2014. Of the three mine was the first to get powered up. It takes roughly 5 minutes to boot. In that time there is nothing on the screens. The other 3 boot up in 30-45 seconds. This has happened since the first boot with only the thunderbolt display hooked up. I've tested it with other displays with the same results. All 4 units are identical.
    What is going on here?
    Specs for each system...
    Processor: 3.5GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon E5
    Memory: 32 GB RAM (using slot 1 & 2)
    Graphics: AMD FirePro D500
    OSX: 10.9.5
    Boot drive: Apple SSD 210GB (120GB Available)
    Thunderbolt Display

    27" LG connected via HDMI port on Mac Pro
    Thanks in advance!

    You waited roughly 3 months to boot this machine for the very first time or for 3 months it's been booting this way?  Your comments suggest you just unpacked this baby and powered it up and it's slow.  If it's been running for 3 months, it's not out of the box. 
    This machine is still under warranty... why not have Apple Care take a look at it?  If as you say the setup between all 4 is identical but only this one is slow to boot, it's likely going to be a hardware issue, not a software one.
    Questions to ask yourself:
    1.  Is the hard drive nearly full?
    2.  Have you checked Disk Permissions and Verified the Disk?
    3.  If you have a dual boot configuration, is the OS X partition the default startup partition?
    4.  Have you reset the NVRAM/SMC yet?

    5.  Have your cleared your kext caches?
    In Terminal, copy/paste this one row at a time into the Terminal window and hit return:
    sudo chown root:admin /

  • IMac - slow to boot, bluetooth not found.

    System:
    iMac 24" (Early 2009) 2.66GHz
    8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 memory (upgraded from original 4GB with 3rd party memory about 4 years ago)
    Seagate Barracuda ST1000DM003 1TB Disk (upgraded from original 640GB about 2 years ago)
    NVIDIA GeForge 9400
    OS X: 10.10.1
    The issue began about 3 months ago when my mother-in-law had the machine. According to her, the machine became very slow to boot (taking from 20min to over 1 hour) and her wireless mouse was not working. Fortunately she was already using a wired keyboard and had a spare wired mouse, so she was able to use the machine. Other than the slow boot and mouse issue, the system was stable.  We decided to replace her machine in any case, primarily because it's not easily serviceable - especially where she lives (rural Alabama). I took the machine back (it had been mine originally). At that point it was running 10.8.5.
    I observed the following:
    1) The system was, indeed, very slow to boot as she described.
    2) None of the bluetooth devices were working.
    3) The bluetooth device shows as "No information found" in the System Information report
    4) Bluetooth preferences were not visible in system preferences.
    5) Coincident with her first report or problems, the following messages began appearing in the system logs:
    Dec 30 14:25:05 localhost kernel[0]: USBF:    3.195    AppleUSBHubPort::FatalError - Port 3 of Hub at 0x6100000 reported error 0xe00002c0 while doing clearing port feature (1)
    Dec 30 14:25:05 localhost kernel[0]: USBF:    3.195    AppleUSBHubPort::FatalError - Port 1 of Hub at 0x6100000 reported error 0xe00002c0 while doing clearing port feature (1)
    Dec 30 14:25:05 localhost kernel[0]: USBF:    3.206    AppleUSBHubPort::FatalError - Port 2 of Hub at 0x6100000 reported error 0xe00002ed while doing getting port status (4)
    Dec 30 14:25:05 localhost kernel[0]: USBF:    3.206    AppleUSBHubPort::FatalError - Port 2 of Hub at 0x6100000 reported error 0xe00002c0 while doing clearing port feature (2)
    Though she originally had external peripherals attached, all have been removed - the only things plugged into any USB or Firewire port are the keyboard and mouse.
    So, that's how the machine was when I got it back... I have tried the following:
    1) First I tried AHT - booting from the original disks provided with the system (AHT version 3A170). AHT hung while probing system hardware; it just stalled for several hours (I think I let it try overnight, only to return to see no progress). I've tried AHT a couple of times through this ordeal and can never get to the point where I can even initiate the test.
    2) I tried removing the bluetooth preferences file.
    3) I tried resetting NVRAM
    4) I tried resetting SMC
    5) I've booted in verbose mode, but nothing really stood out as clearly (or even vaguely) indicating a problem.
    People did suggest booting in "safe" mode - thought it was never clear what I was supposed to do after that. In any case, an attempt to boot in safe mode caused the machine to just reboot itself. I even set safe mode in the boot-args and sat back and watched as the machine consistently rebooted itself each time... about 7 or 8 times before I got sick of hearing the boot chime. I did have verbose mode turned on in boot-args as well, an each time it rebooted at the same point, while initializing drivers. Interestingly, booting in "normal" mode has never been an issue - save for the exceptional amount of time it takes.
    Since the data on the disk was of no use to me, I created a 10.10.1 install package on a USB stick and installed fresh - verifying and reformatting the hard drive before performing the install. The installation was uneventful (i.e. worked just like it should).
    So, now I am running 10.10.1 and still no Bluetooth. I tried the AHT again and again it gets hung probing the hardware and I can't even initiate the test. I even tried a suggestion from another thread (hold ctl-shift-option and the power button for about 6 sec while the power is off)... that had worked for a number of folks but not for me.
    One other piece of info I just confirmed while writing this, 0x6100000 is the Location ID associated with the BRCM2046 Hub - i.e. the Bluetooth device. Why this shows up as a hub on the USB Bus but the device itself doesn't appear to exist is confusing. I certainly would expect to see this as a USB hub on a correctly functioning system, it's just confusing why it's there when the underlying bluetooth device is not recognized.
    So, I am pretty much convinced it's a hardware issue of some kind - given this is a "spare" Mac that I was simply trying to re-purpose to host a film scanner that requires a FireWire interface, I am not sure how much I want to invest financially in getting this resolved. I have heard that Apple no longer services these machines, but I could be wrong...  As I see it my options are kind of limited:
    1) Take it to a repair facility (even if Apple doesn't work on them, there are at least 2 places near by that do) and pay them $$ just to tell me that it's going to be $$$ fix it.
    2) Get my hands dirty, open this thing up and see if I can fix it.
    I'm leaning towards option 2, but I am really reluctant to go on a fishing expedition. Based on what I have observed, it seems to be a problem with the bluetooth module itself, and as I understand it that is a separate part from the main logic board... which means that I can replace it for about $35 and the cost of the right tools; which all together total about the same amount as the "diagnostic" fee any local repair shop would charge. If it's not that, then it's the logic board and the best price I can find for that puts it in the "not worth the trouble" category anyway. I don't want to rule out some other component - memory, disk drive, or power supply... but any of those, at least to me, seem like the kind of components which would cause more erratic behavior when they fail.
    So, what's my question - simple ... have I missed something here. Before I perform open heart surgery are there any last tricks I can try or is my conclusion that this must be a hardware problem pretty solid?

  • Very slow to boot, even on an external drive

    A friend's 15" MacBook Pro, quad core i7,(older, not sure of the exact model) very slow to boot, and boots with the progress bar, then when you try to log in, it goes back to the login page. Often it will not start. Starts after resetting SMC.  Reset PRAM. Booted to the recovery disk, ran repair disk on drive, no errors, tried to run repair on the volume and the MBP shut down. Tried booting to an external drive and it boots to an empty desktop with a finder window like an extended desktop.Tried AHT, only the usual battery sensor error, 4SNS/1/40000000  TB3T-128.000. ran extended test, same thing, only the one error.
    So, how to back up this MB Pro before I try an erase and install. (short of removing the drive) It would seem to be a hardware error, but always want to try an erase and install. Any ideas or troubleshooting suggestions?

    Mike -- thanks for your input. I guess Windows is just a worrisome thing for us Mac guys. Part of what always gets me is unknown code that goes into Windows. I did a Google the other day to see if I could get a feel for the "roots" of the upcoming Vista.
    Who knows what Vista is really based on -- a modification of NT that was in part based on DOS and VMS? From my limited experience, I am not sure there is enough shelf space to hold the manuals to run VMS successfully. Of course, why worry; Boot Camp and other things will change before Vista gets here.
    The bottom line is that I will use all the Windows security fixes.

  • Did the 10.6.8 upgrade, now my mac won't boot up

    I have been gone for 3 months, so there was a backlog of updates.  I did them, and now my mac is having boot up issues.  It does the chime, then it does the last note of the chime 3 more times.  The disks are spinning, but it's not fully booting up.  It kind of feels like it's running, but the moniter is not coming on.  But when I do things like press the disk eject button on the keyboard, nothing happens, so I'm not sure if it's coming on or not.
    I greatly appreciate any help.

    Thanks for your help.
    I got up and running a few hours after I posted.  Suspecting a display issue, I pulled out my ATI Radeon display card that I just put in a few months ago (I seem to have had nothing but problems ever since I upgraded my moniter), and put in the original card that came with my mac.  Then I disconected all of the peripheals, and it came up doing the slow boot up.  Seems to be working fine now.

  • IMac suddenly slow after boot-up

    Hello!
    I've had my iMac for about two years now (mid 2011 model), never formatted it, re-installed or anything.
    Since about a month, all of a sudden, I've had issues with it, being pretty slow to boot. At first it takes about 30-40 seconds for it to actually boot, which isn't horrible but yet slower than it has been. Nothing strange of course. But then when it is actually booted up, everything runs real slow. Loading up Safari can take about 2-4 minutes depending on my mood (when I'm easily annoyed it usually takes longer time). Getting the mail to sync takes ages. And well, launching just about anything takes a fair amount of time longer than it has before. This eases away with the first 10-15 minutes of usage and goes back to normal by then.
    Looking through the processes and stuff I'm usually running on about 90-98% unallocated processing power. About 9 GB free ram (out of 12 totally).
    I'm running Mac on my job as well, where we use Mac Pros which are about 5 years old, we've never re-installed them or anything, they boot pretty slow, but they doesn't have this slow "directly after boot-up"-feeling as my iMac does.
    To a friend using Windows, I'd suggest this as a non-hardware issue. Since Windows usually does that. But I've never had such sever problems on any mac.
    I'm using Lion (10.7.5) and are planning to get Maverick when it's released, but I sort of want to resolve this first. If it doesn't mean I should actually re-install and start from scratch, which means I could wait for Mavericks before bothering.
    Suggestions?

    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.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. Less can slow your Mac down.
    Checked the startup disk lately? You should do this before upgrading the system regardless.
    Launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utilities
    Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
    Click:  Verify Disk  (not Verify Disk Permissions)
    If the disk needs repairing, restart your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys. From there you can access the built in utilities in OS X Recovery to repair the startup disk.
    FYI:   OS X Recovery requires a high speed broadband connection.
    Backup all your important files before repairing or restoring OS X just in case.

  • Apple mac slow ipad fast on safari why?

    Safari question: Why, when my desk top mac runs slow or halts using Safari, does my ipad not?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot insafe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • New Mac Mini wont boot after OS upgrade

    I bought a Mac Mini Yesterday i7 1tb disk
    Wire keyboard and track thingie
    my first mac
    First decided to upgrade OS to latest version
    Its been 24 hours and I have not gotten past the grey screen with these 2 spinnung wheels
    Dave

    Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    The first step in dealing with a boot failure is to secure your data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since your last backup, you can skip this step.   
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to boot. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
        a. Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at the startup chime, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in the support article linked below, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
    How to back up and restore your files
    b. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode by holding down the key combination command-T at the startup chime. Connect the two Macs with a FireWire or Thunderbolt cable. The internal drive of the machine running in target mode will mount as an external drive on the other machine. Copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode
    c. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to boot, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can boot now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
    If you've booted from an external storage device, make sure that your internal boot volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
    Step 3
    Boot in safe mode.* The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Post for further instructions.
    When you boot in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, your boot volume is damaged and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to step 5.
    If you can boot and log in now, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
    If the boot process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
    Step 4
    Sometimes a boot failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
    Step 5
    Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see step 1.) Select your startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
    This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then reboot as usual.
    Step 6
    Boot into Recovery again. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the OS. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with proxy servers, or with networks that require a certificate for authentication.
    Step 7
    Repeat step 6, but this time erase the boot volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer your data from a backup.
    Step 8
    A dead logic-board battery in a Mac Pro can cause a gray screen at boot. Typically the boot failure will be preceded by loss of the startup disk and system clock settings. See the user manual for replacement instructions.
    Step 9
    If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.

    Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.

If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since your last backup, you can skip this step.   
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to boot. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
         a. Boot into the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
    b. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    c. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    If the startup process stops at a blank gray screen with no Apple logo or spinning "daisy wheel," then the startup volume may be full. If you had previously seen warnings of low disk space, this is almost certainly the case. The easiest way to deal with the problem is to boot from an external drive, or else to use either of the techniques in Steps 1b and 1c to mount the internal drive and delete some files. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation.
    Step 3
    Sometimes a boot failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
    Step 4
    If you use a wireless keyboard, trackpad, or mouse, replace or recharge the batteries. The battery level shown in the Bluetooth menu item may not be accurate.
    Step 5
    If there's a built-in optical drive, a disc may be stuck in it. Follow these instructions to eject it.
    Step 6
    Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to boot, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can boot now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
    Step 7
    If you've booted from an external storage device, make sure that your internal boot volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
    Boot in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    When you boot in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, your boot volume is corrupt and the drive is probably malfunctioning.

    Step 9
    Reinstall the OS. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    Step 10
    Repeat Step 9, but this time erase the boot volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer your data from a Time Machine or other backup.
    Step 11
    This step applies only to models that have a logic-board ("PRAM") battery: all Mac Pro's and some others (not current models.) Both desktop and portable Macs used to have such a battery. The logic-board battery, if there is one, is separate from the main battery of a portable. A dead logic-board battery can cause a boot failure. Typically the failure will be preceded by loss of the settings for the startup disk and system clock. See the user manual for replacement instructions. You may have to take the machine to a service provider to have the battery replaced.
    Step 12
    If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.

  • Macbook slow to boot, slow to work - Spotlight Problem? (External HD)

    Hi everyone,
    I have a Macbook from 2008 (The first aluminum model I believe, before they got rebranded as Pro). Recently I wanted to backup my pictures from iPhoto and I had an external HD formatted as exFAT. The moment I plugged my external HD in, my macbook started lagging real badly with the color wheel not going away. So I just held the power button until it restarted.
    When it rebooted, it was first of all EXTREMELY slow to boot, and then once I logged in to my admin account, I could barely do anything. I tried my one other account on the computer and it was the same story. I noticed that Spotlight was not working, and when I clicked it ( and after 5 minutes it finally popped up), it said indexing, and it would never stop. I restarted a few times and it never stops indexing. From what I gather in Google searches, my macbook tried to index the hard drive when it was plugged in and somehow got stuck in this loop.
    I read a few sites on how to disable spotlight completely, but the problem is that the computer is way too slow and unresponsive to do anything of the sort. Terminal can be opened but the commands won't execute. I tried holding shift to start the Mac in safe mode, but the bar moves half an inch and then I just get the little lines around the circle going forever with no bar progress.
    If anyone has any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it.  I cannot afford to lose these photos, that is my number one concern. There are MANY documents that I need on the HD too, but the pictures are more important. Please give me some advice, while keeping in mind that my data is my primary concern, a reformat is out of the question.
    Thanks kindly,

    PS: Not sure what Mac version I am, but I was updated to Snow Leopard and I always let the auto-updater do its thing. Don't even bother asking for activity monitor, way too laggy to open that (I tried, it opens but you can't click anything).

    Here's a terminal command: sudo mdutil -i on /
    This works well =) This will help spotlight

    You're welcome goldcanyon1
    Glad I could help. Thanks for sharing your problem and what device was causing it for you. Sometimes having too many USB devices can cause problems. Your camera might work if only the mouse and keyboard are connected. It is worth a try if you need to get photos from it. I have seen even on my custom built PC occasional "odd" issues that can arise from having a variety of different USB devices connected.
    Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" to those that help solve your problems.
