Unfortunately do not know the operating system since I never updated anything and I can't get in to it.
Thanks for your assistance.

If you want to preserve the data on the boot drive, and it's not already backed up, 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, you can skip this step.
There are several ways to back up a Mac that is not fully functional. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
1. Boot from the Recovery partition or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) Launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
2. 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.
3. 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.

TS1367 MacBook Pro got multicolored horizontal lines then went black and

MacBook Pro got multicolored horizontal lines then went black and now when start button is pressed a regularly spaced beep accompanied by the power led is all that will happen.. Nothing starts.

Take it into Apple, we can't assist you with hardware problems.
Good Luck

My MacBook Pro ran out of battery and shut down ,will power up but goes to panic screen on start up but nothing else , how can I get past this screen to try to fix problem?

MacBook Pro battery ran low and computer shut down , after charging battery I tried to start up and I got an Apple on a gray screen with spinning wheel that went to a panic call out screen and that's as far as it will go. I've tried start up with command keys ,a few got me to a different screen but nothing has let me into any place I can use to try and repair problem. Anybody have an idea of what's wrong with my laptop and a way to fix it ?

My MacBook Pro will not allow me to shut down it says it is still importing photos into iPhoto it also will not quit

My MacBook Pro will not allow me to shut down my computer. Their seems to be a glitch in the iPhotos. It says it is still importing photos into iPhoto. It will not allow me to quit either.

You could always hold down the power button to force the MacBook to turn off. This is usually a last resort step though, but if nothing else is working and you are sure it isn't importing photos then you might consider it.

Yes, it is possible.
You had an issue in this individual instance.

After installing Mavericks my MacBook Pro and my MacMini can't shut down, only a grey screen and finish. Must be killed by the power button. Why?

After installing Mavericks my MacBook Pro and my MacMini can't shut down, only a grey screen and finish. Must be killed by the power button. Why?
Nach der Installation von Mavericks kann ich weder das MacBook Pro (2 x 2.4 GHz) noch den MacMini (2 x 2.66 GHz) herunterfahren. Es bleibt ein dauerhafter grauer Bildschirm. Nach 20 min habe ich einen erzwungenen Neustart durchgeführt.
Ausserdem startet die Macs wesentlich langsamer als mit OS X 10.6.8.

same here... sometimes it works, most of the time it doesn't!!

PowerMac G5 Dual 2.5 - Red Circle w/ Line Then Shut Down

Hi all,
Just floating this question on the forum after some fruitless research. This is my friend's issue, and I wasn't personally there for it. I just type WAY faster than he does.
Here's his setup:
Power Mac G5 Dual 2.5 Ghz w/ 8 GB RAM
OS 10.5.8
500 GB WD Caviar Black Hard Drive
It's his Pro Tools rig (PT TDM HD3 7.4.2)
I assisted him in upgrading from Safari 4.x to Safari 5.0.6 for Leopard last weekend to resolve a possible issue he had with one site. I used that universal download that works on both PPC and Intel. The install went well, and the lovely green check mark came up. Had to force quit the installer before shutting down for the night for some reason. Other than that, it's been running for several days (with both starting up and shutting down each day) without a hitch until today.
He was running a nothing Pro Tools session, when suddenly, in his words, he saw a red circle with a line through it, the screen went black, and the Mac powered down. He said some choice words, started the Mac back up, and all seemed well. Booted fine, and he finished his session without further incident. He did say he had Safari open in the background, so I don't find it coincidental this is giving him grief mere days after a version upgrade.
After some research, I found several posts about a red circle with a line through it during STARTUP, but not while the system is fully booted up and running. Like I mentioned before, this is in his words, so I don't know if the system hard rebooted, had issues accessing the hard drive giving that red circle/line, and then shut down. Then, when he booted it, it went back to normal. Just guessing at this point. He has many external firewire hard drives hooked up, plus all the Pro Tools cards with I/O units attached, wireless mouse. God only knows what caused it.
I wonder if maybe he had some kind of wacked out power brown out, and the system just had a temporary coniption fit.
Anybody know of anything I can do or suggest to him to possibly begin to troubleshoot this? Intermittent problems are a pain. I might try having him go into Safe Mode and then reboot. Any other ideas??

Well, it couldn't writeto something big time, no idea what.
Open Console in Applications>Utilities, check the system log for the date/time of the last problem & next startup for clues.

Macbook Pro 10.6.8 won't shut down. Blue screen with spinning wheel.

it's an 15 inch macbook pro. since I bought this computer was working fine about last year. Somehow, start of this year, the problem begins. Everytime when i opened microsoft word 2011 on mac or Photoshop cs5, and quit the software as normaly. When i try to shut down the blue screen with spinning wheel apears. this spining wheel is endless. But funny thing is that after use other software such as games, web browser (safari) etc. and quit them. when i shut down there was not a problem. only word 2011 for mac and adobe photoshop cs5. Any solutions?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
Step 1
Select "system.log" from the file list. Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time when you had the problem. Post the messages logged during the time something abnormal was happening. That time might be before or after the boot.
For example, if the problem is a slow startup taking three minutes, post the messages timestamped within three minutes after the boot time, not before. If the problem is a system crash or freeze, post the messages from before the boot time, when the system was about to crash or was failing to shut down. In either case, please include the BOOT_TIME message at the beginning or the end of the log extract.
Post the log text, please, not a screenshot. If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
If the log doesn't go back far enough in time, scroll down in the Console file list to /private/var/log/system.log.0.bz2. Search that archived log, and if necessary the older ones below it, for the same information.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
Step 2
Do the same with kernel.log.
Step 3
Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

Macbook pro wont start. grey screen then shuts off

I have been having some problems with my macbook when my battery would die and i would plug it in and try to turn it back on it would take forever to start back up. Sometimes i woudl have to unplug, take out the battery then put them back in and zap the pram and it would start. Then today it just started taking forever to restart so i shut it down and tried to restart now it starts goes to the grey screen and the little thing starts spinning and then about 5 sedc later it shuts itself down.
PLEASE HELP

If the Apple Hardware test does not bring up any problems with the hardware, I would advise doing an archive and install before you zero out the drive and erase all of the data on it.
Some things to keep in mind:
If your computer shuts down while booted to the install disk (either the AHT or the installer) you're looking at a hardware problem.
If you need to erase and install or send it in for repair of a hardware problem, you will need to back up any data you do not want to lose before doing so. If you are unable to do backups, an apple store or authorized service provider can do data retrieval for you. Bear in mind this is an optional service and you would be charged a fee for data retrieval.

MacBook Pro does not start up. Shuts down after apple logo screen with a loading bar.

I booted my macbook pro up today and i noticed it took a while to do so. i also noticed that the fans were going fast and the macbook was getting hot during the start up process. When i went to the screen i also noticed a loading bar which i havent noticed before when starting up the mac. Once the loading bar has reached the end, the macbook just turns off and the same thing happens over and over. I am on mountain lion

I went to apple today and they told me that the hard drive has unmounted itself. They have my macbook right now and they said they're going to replace the wire that connects the hard drive to the logic board and see if this solves the issue. If it doesn't work they will replace the existing 250GB hard drive in my macbook with a 500GB as they no longer make that size hard drives (cost of £130 for the replacement). The problem is that i dont have my macbook backed up so will there be anyway to get data off the od hard drive?

Problem:
Over the last few months I've had constant problems with freezing, shut downs. This might be in the form of I'll be working in iMovie editing some video and then mouse down into the corner to switch Spaces, the screen will half zoom out then just hang. Mouse won't respond, everything just sits there. I usually have to fix this by holding down the power button until the MBP turns off, then just reboot.
Other times I'll leave the computer on at night, wake up in the morning and it will either be off and as such, I just have to press the power button and it boots up again. Or the screen will be off, metal above the Function keys will be cooking, but the computer isn't responding, just a blank screen. I hold down the power button until it turns off and then reboot again.
These problems were getting worse. It has gotten to the stage where it might freeze a couple of times a day.
Seems the problem only occurs when the MBP is working. I might leave it rendering at night and wake in the morning to find it off etc.
Will also sometimes get horizontial lines in apps. I shut them down and start them up again and it's fine. But it's like the graphics card is struggling big time.
Actions to Fix:
- Started with repairing the permissions, but I always found that it had lots of items to repair, would repair then, but then if I verified again, the same things would come up as needing to be repaired. I also tried booting from the OS X DVD and repairing from that version of Disk Utility, but same result.
- Created new admin user account, to see if problem was just limited to my account. Same problem.
- Ran AHT from the MBP DVD that came with the MBP and it passed the hardware test. Though I couldn't find anywhere to make it run an extended test. The test I could run would only take about 10 minutes I believe.
- Erased the HD and fresh install of 10.6.3 from DVD, then software updates to 10.6.7 (yesterday). Repaired permissions after each step. After the OS upgrade I got a decent list of items that needed to be repaired, and after repair, would still show as needing repair. I checked the KB and it listed a lot of files that might get this error, but that it was ok to ignore them.
- Was editing video this morning in iMovie again, running Disk Utility on an external drive and boom, the MBP locked up again
I've gone through the /logs/crashlog in both the root and home user folders. After nearly all crashes these are empty, so it's not even reporting it anywhere.
Can anyone shed any light on whhat might be causing the problem?
<Serial Number Edited by Host>

Actually, when I was at the Apple Store I had both laptops flat, with the screens at 90 degrees. Pushing the screen forward and back with my fingers (via the top of the screen of course), the 15" easily has twice the hinge resistance. With that kind of test, weight isn't a significant factor -- that 17" hinge on a 15" laptop would probably cause the screen to come crashing down, too.
There were a few people in these forums who said their 17" was actually too tight (wish I had that problem!). It seems like a quality/consistency problem that could easily be fixed by A) measuring the force required to move the screen back and forth before screwing the case together, and B) making the hinge tension adjustable.

MacBook Pro won't sleep or stay shut down?

Product: MacBook Pro 13" "mid 2009," 8GB RAM (3rd party RAM upgrade), 2.26GHz, Mountain Lion 10.8.2
This happens ~75% of the time:
1) When I put it to sleep, the fans keep running, hard drive keeps spinning, and the outside front pulsing light goes through unusual on/off pulsing cycles. When I open the lid, it's at the login window. So it knows I put it to sleep, but it doesn't stay asleep. And I can't just put it to sleep and throw it in a bag -- it would overheat.
2) When I shut down, it goes through the process, and as soon as it's off, the front pulsing light turns on, and the computer starts up again. I can't stop that from happening. So to shut down fully (for travel, unplugging power, etc), I need to force shut down (hold power button for several seconds), and that can't be good to do so many times.
I've read through so many posts online (not a totally unique issue here, Apple!), and I have done all of this:
- archive and install
- clear all faulty fonts
- reset SMC
- reset PRAM
- removed all strange startup items (with Genius Bar guy)
- delete /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.PowerManagement.plist and /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.AutoWake.plist to re-create them
- remove all sharing (file, printers, iTunes library)
- turned off Bluetooth
I even did a clean install, then pulled in my stuff backed up on external HD. Unfortunately I didn't test enough if I could replicate these issues before restoring all my files and settings.
Apple Genius Bar told me that it's not a hardware issue -- that's all been checked.
Anything else to do? other than doing another clean install and copying files, applications, etc. one by one? (which might not fix anything)
Thanks so much for any help.

I don't have any good solutions as it seem you have tried all the advised repairs and resets. If it were me I would wipe the HDD clean and install 10.5 or 10.6 depending on the installation disks you possess. If the problem is resolved then upgrade to 10.7 or 10.8 and see what happens.
I have a MacBook Pro that would not work correctly with an interim OS update no matter how I approached it. The consensus on this forum was that I was doing something wrong. I reinstalled to the pre update state and waited till the next upgrade was released. When I applied this everything was fine and has remained so. Perhaps OS X 10.8.3 will offer you some relief.

MACBOOK PRO (MAC OS 10.6.8) SHUTS DOWN UNEXPECTEDLY

As of recently I've had a very serious problem with my MacBook Pro when I've been using Final Cut Pro X. I'm using the computer normally while all of a sudden the screen goes dark and the computer seems to shut down completely. Eventhough I can still hear the disk spinning, the fans running and the keyboard is still lit I have to forcefully shut the computer down (holding the power button down for 10 secs.) and turn in back on. The first time it happened was a few days back and when I turned the machine back on it worked perfectly. Now however it shut down and I did the same things the same way I described before and within 30 minutes or less (while using Final Cut Pro X) it shut down in the same way I described above.
Could somebody please help me? Is my computer dying? Is it my Hard Drive collapsing? Or do I only havet to rest the System Management Controller (SMC) to fix this? Please I beg for your help for I am in dire straits, low on cash and desperately trying to finish some editing projects. Below I have copied the report the computer sends automatically to Apple along with the description of my computer.
Thankyou very much in advance. I appreciate all the help I can get.
Thanks!

Hi a,
It looks like you have a 15" mid 2010. You can try the SMC reset. If that doesn't work, see the free repair program for similar issues:

On start up, my MacBook Pro will just go dark and shut down. It clicks but does not chime. What's happening?

My MacBook Pro on start-up with just go dark and shut down. It makes a clicking or popping sound but there is no chime or other typical Mac sound. I can push the power button again and it will generally power up. It is becoming more frequent with time.
i recently had it in the Apple Store for repair... some cola was spilled on the keyboard. They replaced the keyboard and through a series of circumstances replaced the logic board, case, and superdrive.
About a week or two afterward it started the odd start-up failure. At first only once every few days. Now almost daily. It concerns me. I relay on this old Mac for work and even thought I use TimeMachine, it would be quite a hassle to have to replace it.
Anyone have any idea what's going on?

Try these first:
