Major system failure--crashed and could not reboot
At about 1 am (it's 3 something now) this morning I told my computer to print a simple, one page document. I received an error message, and after a few more tries my MacBook Pro froze, and the CommandOptionEscape combination was having no effect. So, I did what I did not want to do, I held down the power button and forced my computer to shut down. After waiting a few seconds and pushing the button the start-up chime sounded, and the Apple logo appeared on the screen. Everything was fine so far. Before getting to the small circle thing that normally appears below the Apple logo, the screen changed to a black screen with white font, which looked somewhat like DOS. This message was displayed:
/etc/master.passwd: No such file or directory
-Sh-2.05b# CSRHID TransitionDriver::stop
IOBluetoothHCIController::start IdleTimerStopped
I believe that I have all of the spacing correct, but I am not positive. Also, I can no longer tell wether the "-Sh-2.05b" was really "-5h-2.05b".
I tried to enter the few commands that I knew in this form, such as "macboot", but as I suspected it was futile. I attempted to reset the PRAM by forcing it to shut down, and restarting and holding down CommandOption+PR, but that did not make any noticeable changes. I tried again by forcing it off and holding down Option while restarting, and I got the black screen with white font again.
I was able to reinstall Mac OS X version 10.4.5 from the installation DVDs that came with my MacBook Pro. (I am currently running 10.4.5, but I had 10.4.6 in the previous system.) I was able to "archive" the previous OS which I booted from by selecting that option. I can luckily access these files (and have placed the most important safely on my flash drive).
I have not tried to restart or shut down since. Please respond as soon as you can. For now I can live off of this, and by setting up the Mail app and the bare necessities. I have Internet access to by AirPort.
By the way, I have never used Bluetooth devices with this (or any) computer, I have never tried to use Boot Camp to partition my hard drive to run Windows. I did not open my System Folder and tamper with it. I do not know what caused this system failure.
Thank you.
EDIT: I now have all of my email. And I discovered that my apps are in the new Applications folder. Some just need to be reconfigured.

Thanks. It makes sense, since everything froze and when I forced the computer to shut down unsaved files, and some saved ones could be corrupted. I'm glad that Apple had the insight to have the option of reinstalling the OS and archiving all the old system files on the HD. All I had to do was drop the folders, ie. Desktop, Pictures, Movies, Documents, etc, onto my new desktop and drop the files into the corresponding places in my home folder. I did have to reset the minor things, such as configure iChat, Mail and a few others (the most annoying would be that I lost all of my saved passwords, and it took several tries to remember some of them because with Firefox and Safari I save them all). There really is no longer any evidence that I ever had this problem anymore.
And I'm back in control!

IMac with OS X 10.7 crashed and will not reboot
My iMac crashed and will no reboot.
I've tryed to repair the disk using my startup DVD and got a weird message
"Invalid bsd file type. The volume mac hd could not be reparred".
Can anyone please help?
CarlosWelcome to Apple Support Communities
It means that the OS X volume is damaged. Unfortunately, the only thing you can do to repair it is erasing it, so go to Erase tab and erase the drive. Then, reinstall OS X from the DVD (you will go back to an older OS X version).
If you want to keep Lion, start in OS X Recovery, holding Command and R keys while your computer is starting, and erase the disk and install OS X from it -
The system crashed - and could not be recovered by me
I had used Maverick since several days after its availability - without any problem.
BUT: one day I got a message that the program storage is not sufficient. And even after a restart and after closisng all applications I got the same message when i tried to open an application. Thus I could not even start TimeMachine. I had to have it 'repaired'. This was only possible with going back to OS X 10.8.
Does anybody know
• what could be the reason
and
• is there a way to circumvent such a problem?If you made a backup of your content then you can copy that onto your new coomputer and then do File > Add Folder to Library in iTunes. But you can't re-download them - media (music, films, tv shows) can only be downloaded once, which is why you are advised to make, and maintain, backup(s) of your purchased content.

My Mac Pro 2.8 crashed and will not reboot in Safe Mode - HELP!
Hello
I have a Mac Pro 2.8 and it froze up on me; I held in the power button to shut it down. Upon restart, all I get is a flashing foldoer file icon with a question mark.
What gives? It will not start in Safe Mode, via the Shift button OR DOS command (sudo nvram boot-args="-x")
1. How do I get it back up? I have a back up on my external hard drive, but it doesn't recognize it?
2. Are all my current files gone?
Thanks for your helpA flashing question mark on boot can mean several things. One, your Mac can't find a system folder to boot from or the startup disk is failing or failed.
Since you don't have the install discs now, it may take some time to order and receive them from Apple. Probably time to take the Mac to an Apple Store or Apple certified repair shop. They can tell you for certain whether or not the disk has failed.
Since holding down the Option key that prompts the Startup Manager window didn't work, not does your external drive recognized your Mac, I'm afraid without a backup to restore those files from, you may be out of luck.
can I get a new one from mac, and will it erase all my files?
You can get replacement System Install & Restore CD/DVDs from Apple's Customer Support - in the US, (800) 767-2775 - for a nominal S&H fee. You'll need to have the model and/or serial number of your Mac available. -
My MacBook Pro crashed while I was rewriting a book, lost more than an hour of work and could not find a way to restore it. Did not have Time Machine set up, but it appears that Time Machine does not have Real Time back up and documents must be manually stored.
I need an automatic, real time back up to keep this from happening - I'm not happy my MacBook has crashed twice now. What is the best cloud system for Real Time backup? Thanks to anyone who can help me, I'm not the most astutde computer guy... JamesOne way would be to use Dropbox, or a similar sync service, and just keep your critical documents in the appropriate folder. Dropbox, at least, keeps a local copy of everything and syncs automatically to the cloud whenver a change is made. Dropbox is free for up to 2GB of data.
There are also true backup services such as CrashPlan+:
http://www.crashplan.com/consumer/crashplan-plus.html
which provide automatic backups whenver a change is detected. It's not free, but usually such services aren't too expensive unless you need to back up a lot of data.

NOW QUESTIONS!!!!!
1. Why I can't change the status of database to OPEN as grid user?
2. The status is always STARTED when querying v$instance. İs it status of +ASM or database?
3. When checking database as grid user it seems to be Database runnning... If running why it is not in OPEN state? What is running means here?
4. When I log on as oracle user and query v$instance, then error shown above occured. And also when startup the database then another error occured as in above. WHY?
5. When I edit /etc/oratab file manually why second row saved but the first one is changed after restart the system?
6. Normally, which user have to start, stop or manage database? I think that oracle user is necessary for managing database and the grid user is only for managing ASM and Oracle Restart.

Hi! I've got CS3 Design Standard - the actual disks and Software License certificate. It was installed on my laptop which crashed and could therefore not be uninstalled. I have now installed it on my new MacBook Pro, but cannot get it registered with the serial number. Is it because it wasn't uninstalled on the previous laptop? What to do now?? Thx!
Maybe this can help someone else... I simply had to properly uninstall CS3 and reinstall it again after that. I think that sorted it! I also remember having a similar issue with Macs at work a couple of years back. Not sure whether the same applies to CS5/CS6. Here's a link on how to properly uninstall CS3 on Windows XP, Windows Vista and Mac OS. I'm on OS X 10.9.2 but it worked just fine. Remove Creative Suite 3 and CS3 products

I erased my HD and could not install lion. if I turn on the mac now all I see is a folder with a question-mark. How can I install a new operation system?
Install or Reinstall Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the 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.
Erase the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
because it is three times faster than wireless. -
Dear all
I have got 3 mac computers. 2011 13 inch air, 27 inch mac and 2010 pro. latest softwares. all of them have a problem in opening pdf files;esp older files. the error message comes up 'There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired.'
I have reinstalled reader, checked software updates etc.
Any help will be appreciatedIt isn't likely to be a problem with the software. You have two different applications which have no interaction between them, neither of which can open the same group of files on three different systems. It's possible that one application has a problem, but not both or that one system has a problem, but not all three. Typically if there were software corruption, it would not show as a failure to open a specific type of file, but in opening and running the application itself.
I realise that that doesn't really help you since it doesn't resolve the poblem, but I think you need to start with a known-good pdf, preferably one you can download from an internet source, and see whether that opens. If it does, then it would confirm that the software is working properly.
For a known-good PDF to download, try one of the manuals from the support site here. -
I lost all my unpinned 30 tabs and could not restore it, when Adobe update opened a link by firefox, which was not running in the background.
I guess what I have experienced might be a special case of 'Restore previous sessions'. The actual situation was that after I rebooted my laptop, Adobe update jumped out indicating an update being finished successfully. After I clicked on the 'close' button of the Adobe window, it automatically started firefox and linked to its website. But I did not find the 'Restore previous sessions' page this time. Then I restarted firefox, this time there was a start page with 'Restore previous sessions'. However, sadly enough, it is only restored my pinned pages plus the Adobe website. Actually, I am using 'bookmark all tabs' from time to time to secure opened tabs, but this time I did not expect such an incident. I would suggest to improve the 'Restore previous sessions' with multiple time tags and appear in all cases including my reported case here, after updating firefox, crashes etc. I like firefox in most occasions, therefore believe and hope it becomes better and more robust. Thank you very much!Hi,
Please see the following support request: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=2628065
I think the best option would be to leave feedback here to let the relevant development team know about the problem you have had: https://input.mozilla.org/en-GB/feedback
Also you could try the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/session-manager/ Session Manager] add-on which gives more control over how sessions are restored.

Could not load iCloud preference pane and could not load internet accounts preference pane
after a recent not so succesful time machine restore, and after turning internal hard drive and ssd on my macbook pro late 2008 into a fusion drive, I get these error messages in the system preference : could not load iCloud preference pane and could not load internet accounts preference pane. I noted that Mail, Calendar, notes etc all sync to my various device, but on my mac, I can't access the accounts feature. Can anyone help me resolve this issue ? I searched all over the net with no success...
cheers !iMac (Processor 3.2GHz, 8GB 1600MHz DDR3, 3TB HD) Running Mavericks (10.9.4), I have the exact same problem. Local Apple Store unable to help. Turned to my AppleCare Program. They say their techs have never come across this issue this was what was done:
Have downloaded & new copy of OS X = same issue.
Deleted OS X Reinstalled OS X on blank drive - restored all my data from backup = now have no MS Office, no Adobe Photoshop Elements, no iWeb, no Parallels, no VMWare, no iPhoto in fact, nothing of "my" machine. (but problem is still there)
Advised to do an "Internet Restore" from good Backup (over 24 hours to complete); when complete, machine restarts = a circle with a cross diagonally through it and the spinning wheel. (It goes no further no matter how many times you reboot)
Now on my own, booted using "Command + R" to start in Recovery mode. Changed all permissions in Disk Utility. Rebooted. = my machine is back - all data intact and all programs there & working BUT problem persists.
I have now turned to Communities. Followed everything people said worked for them but in my case, after a reboot, I still cannot load iCloud OR Internet Accounts Preferences panes!!
If I add a calendar item on my iMac it will not sync with either my iPad or iPhone. If I add a calendar item on either my iPhone or my iPad that item will sync with the other device but will not sync to my iMac. The same is true for Contacts as well. Extremely annoying to have to type it in all the time. This is Apple for heavens sake and therefore it should work!! -
I keep getting the message, "the file is damaged and could not be repaired"
I have a newer Gateway PC equipped with Windows Vista Ultimate, and recently downloaded the free Adobe Reader 8.1.1 version to it.
I'm not very computer literate, so I'm not sure which terminology to use all the time...sorry.
When I attempt to open (view, read, download?) a pdf file, it starts the download process, showing the progress at the bottom of the page....for example, it might say, "downloading (16.2kb out of 543.5kb)"
Usually, about a minute or so into the download, the word "downloading" changes to "downloaded", the action stops, and shortly after (on the window with the gray Adobe Reader background), a smaller message window pops up, declaring, "the file is damaged and could not be repaired".
A friend suggested that there was probably a problem with the original downloading of Reader and recommended that I completely remove it from my system, then re-install it. Reluctantly, with a very slow dial-up connection network, I did as he suggested, then painfully sat through about a two-hour download AGAIN of Reader 8.1.1
After the download was completed again, I successfully opened a few of the pdf files which I was previously having the problems with. Problem solved??? NOT QUITE!!! After about three or four successful file downloads (openings/readings of the files), it again started to do the same thing, where it would not complete the downloading/opening process and again leaving the message, "the file is damaged and could not be repaired."
I am very confident that the files are not the problem, as many of my friends have viewed/opened those same pdf files repeatedly with no issues, BUT WHAT IS CAUSING THIS??? As I said before, I'm not very computer savvy as it is, and adding the newer Windows Vista Ultimate OS probably hasn't helped any.
1. Is the problem with Windows Vista?
2. Is the problem with Adobe Reader 8.1.1 (or the downloading of it)?
3. Is the problem related to the security settings of my computer?
4. Is the problem likely virus related (I use the purchased McAfee protection)?
I just don't know where or how to start looking for the solution, other than thru this forum, and I simply can't afford the time to remove and re-install Adobe Reader 8.1.1 each time I need the use of my computer.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, and you can e-mail me with suggestions to [email protected], or else call me on my cell

Hello,

Workflow Error Message: System Account - The Workflow could not set Content Approval Status
This is the first time I try an approval workflow. I am using a template in MS Word and assigned an approval workflow to it. The approval workflow is only going to one person in this case.
When I start the work flow the following 3 error messages show up:
Workflow Error Message: System Account - The Workflow could not set Content Approval Status. Enable content moderation for this list and run the workflow again.
Workflow Error Message: System Account - The e-mail message cannot be sent. Make sure the e-mail has a valid recipient.
Workflow Error Message: System Account - The e-mail message cannot be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly.
Thank you for your kind guidance.Hi,
For the first error: Did you set Content Approval in the workflow? If so, see if you have it in the versioning settings of the list settings.
For the second error: double check your recipient is set up as being valid. Did you type in the email address or is it referring to a people picker field? also, make sure that in the workflow for the email that you actually populated it in the
To: field.
for the third error: I suspect that either your farm is not configured for email. Or, this error is a knock on from the second error. If you get the second error rectified it may clear this error. If not then double check the email settings
for your farm.
