Macbook Pro received kernel panic from Mavericks update and will not turn on

Hi, I have a 2011 MBP and have had kernel panics since updating to Mavericks. Even in safe mode the computer just teuns on shows the kernel panic and then auto restarts and does this about three times before it shuts off completely. I have been informed the some of the hardware is not capable of running this software but even so I cannot even put MBP back to Mountain Lion. If anyone is having similar issue please let me know and any help would be great.

Take it in for a service diagnostic so you can determine if it's worth fixing or if you should buy a new one.

  • My MacBook Pro has Mac OSX 10.5.8 and will not let me update any further. Why?

    I have a MacBook Pro that I purchased in 2009 (It doesn't have a SD card slot, but is an aluminum body). Right now it's using Mac OS X 10.5.8 and will not let me update any further, which means that I cannot install any new versions of iTunes or some other programs. How can I fix this?

    You can't upgrade beyond 10.5.8, that is the final step for Leopard.
    You can purchase Snow Leopard (10.6.x) from Apple (but you should have 2G of Ram installed, and sufficient hard drive space). Your Mac is fully capable of running Snow Leopard and will probably already meet the specs I mentioned.

  • My Macbook Pro is powering on in Safe Boot and will not accept the correct password

    My Macbook Pro is only powering on in Safe Boot and will not accept the correct password. What do I do to get it out of Safe Mode?

    MBP = Macbook Pro  (My shorthand)
    I think I now understand what you are describing.  This is the Apple support article on a Safe Boot:

    Note this excerpt:
    How are you starting your MBP.  Do you see a progress bar on startup?
    Ciao.

  • Macbook pro is stuck on my home screen and will not respond to commands

    Hi,
    I just upgraded to Lion this week and came home and opened my Macbook pro. It immediately came on, but took a minute or so for the cursor for the mouse to appear. At the top of the screen "Finder" is highlighted. Problem is, no matter what program I click on, the computer will not acknowledge anything. Help!

    First try a Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons
    If no joy... Try a Restore...
    1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
    2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.

    3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the Steps in this article to force the device into Recovery Mode.

  • Phone crashed after update and will not turn on

    I updated my Droid Razr Maxx yesterday and the phone completely crashed and would never start back up after the update. The pgone keeps displaying the Motorola "M" but will not go past that. I have tried to do the soft reset by using the voulume up and power key and the phone will balcck off but when it comes back on it continues to only display the Motorola "M" symbol. I also let the phone completely die to see if that would fix the problem but that did not work either. What could be the cause of this problem? Is there a way to fix this problem?

    Let's get your phone back up and running, Keishab! I appreciate all that you've done thus far. Are you able to get your device to power up in the Boot Mode Selection Menu. I've provided the instructions here, http://vz.to/1xyvikX . You do not need to complete the factory reset but I do want to see if it will power up into this menu option.

  • MacBook Pro Retina kernel panics after xcode update

    I was updating my xcode to version 4.6 and it downloaded fine and when it began installing all the fans went high and the system kernal paniced and restarted. I thought it may have been a one time thing so I tried again and it did the same thing. ANy ideas? anyone else with the same issue? The system runs fine with no other issues besides that. Help!?

    I did not install the downloadable from the developer site after all. It turns out to be a link to the app store...!
    But, problem is solved for me:
    Tonight I installed the OS X 10.8.3 update. After that i retried updateing Xcode to 4.6.1 and it worked like a charm.
    I have no clue what was wrong before...

  • My MacBook Pro's airport has an exclamation point and will not connect to the wifi. How do I fix this?

    I have tried restarting my computer, turning on and off the wifi, entering my IP address manually, etc. Nothing is working and I have had this problem for a week now. I know the Internet is not the problem because it works for others in my home.

    Open System Preferences/Network
    Select the Location you use at home
    You may need to click the Padlock bottom left at this point if it's locked, enter the admin password to unlock
    In the left hand column drag the Ethernet connection to the top of the list and remove any you don't use
    Click the Advanced button bottom right
    Click the TCP/IP Tab
    Set Configure IPv4 to Using DHCP
    Click OK bottom right and you should see the Router IP number appear and a unique but similar one for your Mac
    Click Ok then click Apply and close the Panel

  • HT201257 Fan on my MacBook Pro came on and will not turn off, what could be wrong or how do I fix?

    The fan on my MacBook Pro came on out of no where and will not turn off. The computer is not heated nor are any applications running in the background. The seems to be going on full blast. Before now it worked fine. Would turn on or off when need. Please advice what could be wrong or if ther is anything I can do to fix or troubleshoot. Computer is not even a year old.

    LexSchellings: Now I know why you wished me luck and hoped everything would clear up asap hehe. I've been doing some reading and it is quite possible that my MBP late 2011 is sadly part of the probably million of MBP's out there with logic board issues. I am glad I am under warranty (still have to wait and see what apple techs decide on my comp) and sad that my comp will probably be done with in a few years. Not even 4 as it turns out. I can honestly say my old iBook G4 was amazing gave me 8 great years. Never had an issue with it.
    Something funny is that about 10 to 15 mins ago the fan on my comp (the only indicator I got of any issue going on) quite down and the comp was working perfect. It has been running really slow since I noticed the fan being over worked even if nothing is running. Then it started up again and once again quite down, functioned well for like 10 seconds and started being noisy and slow again.
    However there is an issue that bugs me, if according to my AHT results it is a faulty logic board how come my comp is still functioning? Of course being slow and noisy. I've read on some sad stories on here
    Wish me more luck and send me lots of good vives. Going to need them. Especially if I end up not being able to fix the comp.
    Apple is letting me down and to think I just purchased an iPad mini for xmas :/

    Please google search for "Mountain Lion disk crash" before upgrading you mac pro. You might need to replace you Mac hard drive after the upgrade.So many people had the same problems including me.
    Be aware of the Mountain Lion upgrade problem.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe 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, 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 the test.
