MacBook Air 2010 died after installing Mavericks, happened to anyone else?

Having installed Mavericks onto my early edition MacBook Air it has totally died.
- It will no longer charge, in fact the light doesn't come on at all on the Magsafe (tried two different chargers both still charge my MacBook Pro)
This happened after I turned it off for the first time having installed the new OS.
Anyone else had their Air turned into a brick by Mavericks?
I've got a genius bar appointment on Saturday but thought it was worth seeing if anyone else had suffered the same issue. Keen to know if my battery had just reched the end of it's life (although it was still lasting a good number of hours under Moutain Lion) or if Mavericks has caused the issue.
Thanks!

The panic was caused by the Yamaha audio device or its software, maybe with help from one or more of the other third-party system modifications you've installed. I suggest you disconnect the device, back up all data, and then remove the software according to the developer's instructions. Reboot and see whether there's an improvement. If there isn't, post your results.

  • Macbook Air constantly rebooting after installing Mavericks... this was my fix

    Just in case this helps anyone.
    I installed Mavericks on my Mac without an issue. When it restarted, my Mac would constantly reboot after a few minutes. It didn't matter if I logged in or not. I tried the various things that have been suggested (reset NVRAM, CMOS, running a disk check) but nothing help. If I booted into safe mode, I would not have any problems.
    The issue ended up being some systems extensions in my /System/Library/Extensions folder. I had installed and deleted Trend Micro Smart Surfing a while ago by using the manual uninstall (move the application to the trash) which leaves the system extensions it had added intact (there was a Trend Micro folder in /System/Library/Extensions).
    I reinstalled the software and then used the uninstaller that came with the program and after I rebooted, everything worked fine. I checked the /System/Library/Extensions folder and could see that the Trend Micro folder had been removed by the uninstaller.
    I would suggest looking at the /System/Library/Extensions folder and comparing to what is in the applications folder. If you something in the extensions folder but not in the application one, you might be having the same type of issue that I was having.

    Startup your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys so you can access the built in utilities to repair the startup disk and restore OS X using OS X Recovery.

    If you use a trackpad and don't want to switch to a mouse, you can uninstall and reinstall all day long and will still have problems, but if you really want to try it, you can download PSE 12 here:

  • Early 2011 MacBook Pro incredibly slow after installing Mavericks

    I'm really hoping someone can help me out. As per the subject line, I installed Mavericks on day one (and learned my lesson!).
    Since installing Mavericks my MacBook Pro runs incredibly slow. If I open the Mail App and Safari - it almost grinds to a halt. I have the "Memory Clean" App which I now have to run constantly (it appears to help a little) and I try to only launch one app at a time where possible, but it's not really pratical.
    As an aside, my MacBook ran really well with Mountain Lion, so there's little doubt to my mind that Mavericks is the culprit.
    I'd be eternally grateful for any help & advice :-)

    CleanMyMac is probably your problem.
    CleanMyMac is crapware.
    Crapware is anything that purports to "optimize",  "clean", "accelerate", "monitor", or "protect" your Mac. These apps are unnecessary, poorly written, overpriced (if they were free, they'd still be overpriced), and harmful. The people who sell this stuff know this, but they keep selling it because people keep buying it. They can damage your OS and be difficult to uninstall.
    I would try to uninstall it, but if that fails, you may have to erase your HD and do a clean install.

  • My macbook is extremely SLOW after installing MAVERICK!, My laptop is extremely SLOW after installing MAVERICK!

    anyone else have the same problem? and if so, what is being done about it??

    Back up your documents and everything else important to you, not that there is any reason to believe your hard disk may be failing, but the symptoms you describe may presage an impending disk failure, and you should have backups anyway.
    To help determine the possible causes of this behaviour read the following. None of what follows is intended to fix anything, but it will provide the additional information required to advance troubleshooting:
    Boot OS X Recovery by holding ⌘ and r (two fingers) while you start your Mac. For Snow Leopard, start your Mac while holding the c key with its original OS X Install DVD inserted in its optical drive. At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red.
    When it finishes restart your Mac and test again for operation. If it's still not behaving as you expect it should, please post the results of EtreCheck in accordance with the following instructions:
    Apple Support Communities contributor etresoft wrote a very useful app to quickly gather certain system information that may help point to a cause of this problem. Go to his website, download and run EtreCheck:
    http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck
    Etrecheck will be in your Downloads folder. Open it from there. You may see the following dialog box:
    Click Open - etresoft contributes to this forum frequently and can be considered a trustworthy developer.
    It will take a moment to run as it collects its data.
    Copy and paste its output in a reply.
    Do not be concerned about anything that says "Problem" or “failed” or anything else that may appear in red.
    EtreCheck was designed to remove any personal information (such as your computer's name and serial numbers) but if you see anything that looks like an email address or any other personal information that should not be divulged to others, please delete or obscure that information when you post the reply.
    When you are finished with EtreCheck, quit the program. It occupies very little space, and you can keep it or drag it to the Trash as you wish.
    After completing the above please determine if the problems also occur in "Safe Mode":
    Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
    Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
    Merely starting your Mac in Safe Mode is not intended to resolve the problem, it's to observe its performance without certain additional components.
    To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.
    Some users have reported an SMC reset to be beneficial. Be sure to read the procedure carefully and follow all the steps exactly as written, even if they seem inapplicable or trivial.

  • Is it possible to play a quick time player video on a macbook air? I've installed Mavericks on my computer already

    I'm trying to watch a video on my MacBook air trought quick time player but the video just won't open.  Every time I try to open it it says: "QuickTime Player can't open "IMG_1916.MOV". To see if additional software is available that will enable quick time player to open the movie, click Tell me more.  I clicked on it but it doesn't show me any helpful information, or at least I don't see it.
    Thank you

  • I Have a SOUND Problem after installing 10.4.6, anyone else?

    I updated to Tiger 10.4.6 and Now I have a problem with the output sound. It is less than 2/3's of what it was in Panther, and it is raspy. As I have been looking for an answer to the problem, I discovered that this update also updates the firmware. If you recall, the Mac reboots twice the first time the Mac is started up on 10.4.6, and I have been told that this is where the firmware is updated. And I think this is what has messed with the sound on my G5. If you have had a similar problem, and know of a fix, please let me know. Thank you.

    Thank you Barry, for your reply, and I did try the action you suggested. However, there was no change.
    Since I posted here I have more info. I will have to retract the claim that iTunes and movies are effected. It seems, at least at this point they play and sound fine through a head set.
    Per the Applecare Tech's suggestion, I did an erase and install back to 10.3.5 to see if the sound quallity would return, and it did. I moved up to 10.3.9 and the sound was still ok. Then I did another erase and install up to 10.4.3 and the problem returned. This tells me the firmware is not the issue in this case, and that some thing in Tiger is the cause, and not just at 10.4.6. I will not speculate as to what the cause might be, rather, I will leave it to the experts. I will be taking the computer into an Apple service center so they can check it out. I will post again when I know more.

  • System crashes when i use any input field after installing Maverick

    Hello all.
    I have a 2010 macbook air, and have just installed Maverick OS.
    Now every time i go to any input field to type in a web address or apple id, the system crashes
    and re-boots. Tried to alter keyboard properties nothing works.
    I presume i will have to do a factory re-set, because i can not load any updates because I am asked
    for apple ID, which i cant enter because computer crashes... Oh right i mentioned that already ;)
    Help advice welcome!
    Rgds from frustrated in Sweden!!!!

    There was an issue similar to this that was resolved with DAQmx 9.3 update. If you haven't done so already, update the driver to 9.3 and try again. If not, try opening an example (like, say, Hardware I/O->DAQmx->Analog Meas->Voltage->Cont Acq&Graph Voltage-Int Clk-Analog Start.vi), and try running that standard example. If the example works and you still have difficulty with your application, could you post information about your project and what navigational steps you take to make the error occur? Try also opening the VI inside and outside of a project (this would diagnose a symptom of the issue resolved by DAQmx 9.3).

  • Black screen on MacBook Pro Retina Display after installing Moutain Lion. Need Help!

    My macbook pro (retina) screen went black after I installed Mountain Lion.
    I got a HDMI cable to another monitor and the image worked nicely there.
    But i cant get it back on my MacBook Pro! I tried taking out the HDMI cable, restarting, searching on settings configs..
    What should I do?
    Are there any drivers i should install to get image back on my MacBook Pro Retina Display?
    Has this happened to anyone else?
    Thanks in advance for all the help.

    That helped me finding other people with similar problems.
    But there is a major difference!
    -They have a black screen after they login.
    -My screen is black NOW! And I'm only using my BRAND NEW rmbp with the HDMI cable to my TV!
    This isnt good at all and I would like to solve it asap..
    I tried reinstalling Mountain Lion, taking out the hdmi cable and rebooting many times.
    Until now, nothing!
    Is my screen broken or maybe my video card has some problems?
    I hope not! I just traveled from the US to Brazil and I dont want to search for an Apple Store here.
    Any tips or ideas are welcome, thank you.

  • MacBook Air won't restart after installing Mavericks

    My MacBook Air (v Fall 2011) won't restart after installing Mavericks.  I have done the instal several times, done the disk repair, I have had 2 visits to the local Apple store where they installed Mavericks with their software only to return home and have it fail again.  Does anyone know of issues with the SSD or memory?
    Next visit to the Apple store is Tuesday morning 12-17-13.  Anywthing that can help us would be appreciated.  Tks David

    Ok. Nevermind. I guess I had to Force Quit/Relaunch Finder.

  • After installing mavericks on my macbook pro my laptop keeps rebooting

    How can I find out what might be happening to cause this behaviour?
    Is anyone else seeing this odd behaviour?
    I didn't have a booting issue before installing Mavericks, since installing I have had at least 4 random reboots.  After logging in, I get a message that the system booted unexpectedly and I uploaded the info to Apple.  One time it showed the reboot occured during the wakup from sleep.
    As a side question, how can I tell the system to NOT relaunch all applications that where running before.

    Hi Clinton (and original poster/responders)
    I have been having the same problem, with random reboots after installing Mavericks.  Sometimes, it goes into a loop of restarting for a while before successfully launching (even rebooting when I click on my user id to log in to OS) . Thanks, and,
    Here are the results from using EtreCheck: (P.S.: I use an external usb harddrive for TimeMachine, and it hasn't been connected during these restarts)
