My 2007 MacBook Pro keeps receiving "you must restart you computer" screen upon start up
It all started when i was watching videos online and the screen froze. It did this a couple more times and in between these freezes the computer would occasionally freeze during start up while the gray wheel was spinning.
I was running lion. i decided to reinstall snow leopard (dont ask why) and upon doing so ran into a few troubles such as the compter saying my log in password was incorrect. after sorting all this the computer was fine for a day or so til it froze again, this time while watching a video from a usb flash drive.
from that moment on, i have not been able to get past the "you must restart your computer" screen. I have tried everything i have found in this forum that relates to my problem to no avail.
i have booted in safe mode, booted in terminal mode and checked the hd which is said to be ok, i have resest the ram, and i have tried to boot from install disk (both dvd and usb flash drive)
after i check the hd in terminal, i typed "exit" to reboot and received this message:
cannot get audit control port
Warning: audit space low <5% free
systemShutdown false
along with others
Please help. this computer is my life line and im way too broke to pay for repairs or god forbid a new one
Correct. I mean wipe and install OS X clean. You should be able to install from USB drive or DVD. Restart your MBP and hold 'C' during starup.

Did anyone else have a 'you must restart your computer' screen today?
I leave my imac on 24/7. This am, I switched from my wifes user profile to miine, checked my email, got done, closed mail, and was going to open my browser (firefox) and the screen dimmed (like before going to screen saver) and then a gray message box about 3" X 4" with the circular power icon image in light gray background came on in the center of the screen, saying "You must restart your computer-please hold down your power button until computer shuts down (paraphrased). Nothing was going to allow me to do anything else (no cursor movement with the mouse, esc did nothing)so I powered down, and let it restart. Seems ok, I just want to know if anyone else has ever seen or experienced this happening. What entity would facilitate this restart? Apple? My ISP? Some spyware?
OK....I used the 'maintenance' utility, and ran scripts, repaired permissions, etc. When my computer restarted, I went to my wifes profile, ran 'disk utility' to repair permissions on her profile. Then I opened her browser and cleared her data, ie search cache, website cache, everything except her logon data. When that was done, I went back to my profile, and opened the browser. I'm at that point now, and all seems to be well. But then it seemed well when this first occured. Any guesses as to why this happened or what might have caused it to happen? A program conflict? A visit to a data-mining webpage? I know that some will tell you (or me) that macs are supposedly immune to viral or malware attacks, but there also are those who will argue that it is impossible to protect any computer, even a mac, from all infections. So, part curiosity and part pessimism create a curiosity. Any input would help.
Thanks. -

My 2007 MacBook pro won't boot up beyond a White screen any ideas what to do?
My 2007 MacBook pro won't boot up beyond a White screen any ideas what to do?
Odd how this hasn't been archived yet.
I'm getting the same thing with my Macbook, but can't boot past the white screen. An Apple store in KS suggested I needed a new hard drive, but I've already put two in there and it's still doing the same thing. I really don't want to buy another motherboard like I had to a couple of years ago.
My choices are either buy a cheap drive to boot from and remove the current one to put into an external case, or save the money by not buying a new motherboard and putting it as a down payment toward a Mac mini. -
OS X 10.4.10 Error Message - "you must restart this computer ..."
Hello. I've started up my Powerbook G4 twice and have received a message stating "You must restart this computer..." with instructions to hold down start button to do so. I've had this unit for nearly 5 years with no issues. Am not running any external equipment. I've read that it may be a "Kernal Panic". What is this? I was instructed by a particular posting to record the "panic log". Could someone instruct me further as to my best possible solution?

Edward CEdward:
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
You are, indeed, having a kernel panic (your computer, that is )
From the panic log you posted my guess is that your Airport card is the culprit. I suggest that you remove the Airport Express card and then try starting up again. If all goes well, clean off the contacts of the Airport card and replace it and see what happens. If the KPs return, you will need to replace the Airport card with a new one.
Please do post back with further questions or with an update.
Cheers

Synopsis
Problem: Endless Black Box "You Must Restart You Computer..." loop
Cause: Printing certain documents (so far one specific pdf file and a text file) through the wireless network at school initiates the problem and then all wireless networks perpetuate the problem thereafter
Steps Taken: Unplugged wireless network - this allows me to log in
-Warning box about fatal crash appears but "Send Report" does not produce any data
-Restarting wireless after login causes no problems
-Waking computer from sleep with wireless enabled causes black box to reappear
-Permissions repair did not resolve anything
-A complete reinstall solved everything until the other day when printing initiated the problem again, after having successfully printed numerous documents wirelessly over the past month
Other strange things my computer does:
-Makes very quite chirping sound with every key stroke (except arrows)
-Usually sits at the grey startup screen with the spinning wheel for a long time and then speeds through login process
-Only restarts successfully every second time after a hard-restart (the first time it just sits there spinning endlessly)
More Details
Problem: Black box appears notifying me "You need to restart your computer" (Kernel panic I believe?) I restart my computer once, and it sits forever at the grey screen with the little wheel spinning. I hard-restart my computer a second time and it logs me in and then the black box reappears... and then the whole process starts over again..
Circumstances: I had this exact same problem occur about a month ago and it happened again under the exact same circumstances. I recently installed a Korean wireless router, some other foreigner had left behind, in my school here in Korea. The first time it happened I was trying to print PDF document wirelessly from my classroom and the black box appeared. Then the whole endless loop began...
That night I tried to fix the problem at home. I was able to log into safe mode but the endless loop persisted when I tried a normal log in normally again. I finally did a reinstall from my external drive using the most up to date image I had created with Carbon Copy Cloner.
The following day I went to school and couldn't resist trying to reprint the suspect document. My freshly installed computer crashed and I was ****** at myself for experimenting so early in the day. Then I tried unplugging the wireless router and restarting and it worked! Then I plugged the router back in and everything was running smoothly again.
Now I have a new problem. If my computer wakes from her sleep with the wireless enabled I get the black box both at school and at home. I'd really like to avoid doing another reinstall... please help!
Thanks in advance!
PowerBook G$ Mac OS X (10.4.5)Hey Rich,
Think my computer healed herself while I was away this weekend
What I am wondering is if
a Safe Boot will always get you logged in when the
other problems are occurring.
This question prompted me to try starting up in safe mode. I wanted to make sure the problem still persisted so I:
1. Plugged in ethernet cable
2. Turned on Airport
3. Ensured WAN was functioning
4. Shut Down my computer with just like I used to, with all network connections enabled
5. Power ON -> Flawless start up, no black box!
6. Put computer to sleep -> Woke up -> No black box!
Weird eh?
So the only way I can answer your question is based on previous experience. Logging in using safe mode did work the three or four times I used it the first time this problem occurred.
I did nothing to my computer since this error, no updates, no permissions repairs and no sudo daily, weekly, monthly house keeping. When classes were finished Friday night, I came home, put my computer to sleep with Airport off and ethernet unplugged and the following morning I shut her down, hid her in my sock drawer, and left for the weekend!
My only explanation is that somehow reconnecting to the wireless network at school allowed my computer to resolve unresolved issue it was having with that network, the same network that instigated the problem. That's my best guess.
Thanks for taking the time to try and help me out with this issue. The clarification you sought definitely helped us get a more refined picture of the problem. I'm sure this issue will rear its ugly head again in the near future... that is, unless you or anyone else have some ideas about what I could do to prevent this from happening again.

FU,
Here's the info you wanted:
-Only restarts successfully every second time after a hard-restart (the first time it just sits there spinning endlessly)
This might indicate a dying backup battery (the one that keeps your PRAM healthy)
My PowerBook isn't even a year old yet, could it be that my battery has died this quickly? Hmmm, another thing I have experienced is that my Mac wont wake from sleeping if I have let the power get so low that she has been forced to sleep.
1. "10 minutes of battery power remaining" box appears
2. Battery depletes and computer enters sleep mode by default
3. I go home and plug computer into power adaptor
4. Computer fails to wake up no matter how long I wait -->power adaptor light does indicate the battery is charging
5. I am forced to unplug my computer, remove the battery and hold down the power switch.
6. Power on -> Date and time settings have changed and need to be set again
Does this sound like the symptom of a low backup battery?
make sure that "Set time & date automatically" in the Date & Time System >Preferences is unchecked.
I've never tried this so I'll give it a shot and see if performance improves.
now it seems almost obvious: 99% looks like a network fault and nothing >to do with your Tiger installation...
Perhaps, I'm no networking specialist, but I have flawless network performance until printing some random document at school over wireless triggers the whole series of events I mentioned above. My home router has never triggered this problem... although I have never tried to print wirelessly at home because I have no printer.
1) how big is your network? (how many wireless and how many wired Macs >access your Router)
At Home: Very small, 1 PowerBook 64 and one iBook G3
At School: Small: Two Windows machines and my PowerBook G4. Wireless box is plugged into the existing router that was there. I have windows printer sharing checked in the "sharing" section of "system prefs"
2) make/model of your router
D-Link DI-624 (Home)
Some crazy old dilapidated korean box (at school)
3) how do you configure your router (via the browser (Safari) or via a >utility/application provided by the vendor)?
I believe I configure it manually... I access the router via web browser and configure my settings
4) make sure DHCP is set to Off/Disabled and set your IPs for both your >Macs and the Router manually
Check, Check
5) If you're familiar with network settings like hosts file, post back your >configuration / make sure your IP addresses are assigned correctly
Not familiar
btw your PowerBook has an AirPort Extreme card or a 3rd party Wireless card?
AirPort Extreme card
Thanks for trying to help FU, hope this information helps you.

Need help with MacBook. "You must restart your computer..."
So I just got a new MBP 13" back in April. Then a few weeks ago, I started getting these "You must restart" crashes out of nowhere. They weren't really specific to any task I was doing, but I noticed it happened most either while browsing the internet, or directly when opening the lid after it slept over night. It was just a bunch of random Kernal Panics that didn't really point to one specific thing. I suspected Google Chrome, but after an uninstall (deleting complete Chrome folder) and reinstall, still happened. Then just removed Chrome altogether and went to Safari, still happened.
Went to the genius bar and they did a few things that didn't work and said that they wanted to do a fresh install next. I hadn't backed up my system, so I bought an external, picked up my MBP, and took it home and did it my self. I backed up, then did a full reformat of the hard drive and did a fresh install of Lion. Restored my stuff from my backup. All was well for almost 2 days. Then bam, it happens again.
So I thought maybe I may have restored whatever software problem was there before I reformatted? But then I decided to test the RAM I put in it. About a week after I bought the MBP, I upgraded to 8GB. Got it from Newegg. Here is the specific RAM I got: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820233215. Did a memtest over night, passed! But was still getting the problem. So I took the RAM out and put the factory RAM back in, and the problem hasn't happened since. And it's been about 5 days. Before, it was happening everyday, sometimes up to 3 times a day.
So I guess it's safe to assume that the RAM was the issue? Even though it passed the memtest? Only thing is, how do I go about getting them to warranty it? What do I tell them? Do you guys think that was even the problem or do you think it will happen again?
I can't get the apple hardware test to work. First, my computer shipped with no DVD's, so it has to use the internet. When it tells me to select my wireless network, my network isn't even showing up on the list. I tried typing it in manually and that didn't work either. Tried rebooting my router. Didn't work. So I tried using MyWi from my iPhone and that showed up immediately. But after it connected, it did nothing. It just displayed the grey spinning globe. Then gave me an error "apple.com/support -1005D" which gives me absolutely nothing when I search it.
The weird part is that when I'm using the computer normally, it connects to my network immediately upon booting. Why is the internet retore function not able to see my network?
I remember when I was trying to do the fresh install, my network wasn't showing up immediately either. It took about a minute to show up, while all my neighbors' networks were showing immediately. It also takes a long time for my Mac to see my Windows PC's on the network after it boots or wakes from sleep.

R8: 0xffffff840804ccDefinitely has to be the RAM. Reinstalled the Corsair 8GB Ram about 24 hours ago and the problem has already happened twice back to back, where as it hadn't happened for a week when I reinstalled the factory RAM. Here are the two new errors. The second one happened right after rebooting from the first crash. Still can't get AHT to run. Getting a -1006D error.

2007 macbook pro keeps restarting won't boot up
Hello,
I have a fairly old MAcbook Pro (2007). Recently, after rrsinsatlling and erasing the hard drive, my MBP will not Boot up. Ive tried Resetting PRAM, SMC, etc. The symptoms are as follows.
the chime then apple logo---then it RESTARTS. I can't open in safe, or verbose, or run Apple hardware test. since it just restarts. I can't boot from DVD or External Flash drive because it just restarts after selecting the alternate startups. I also can not boot from the recovery HD because it just restarts. the only thing that delays the restart is if I don't select a startup disk after holding the option button. or if i hold the N key...at which point after about a minute or so of searching for a network disk it restarts. when i hold down the V i would see a few lines of code and it then restarts. It will continue to restart for hours until I disconnect the power adapter. (finally there is no battery in the device and hasn't had once for over 3 years when it exploded. Please help
Thank you.I also have a Late 2007 MBP 15" that, after 5.5 years, finally succumbed to the Nvidea curse. Nvidea sold Apple a lot of video chipsets (yes, if you have a 2007 MBP, you could have the Nvidea curse) that were faulty and would fail with heat. Mine failed during a software update too.
Aple had a repair extension program for this but it expired in December 2012.
I called around a lot, finally calling Cupertino to be told the 2007 MBP not longer qualifes for a flat-rate repair due to a lack of parts.
My point is you may not be able to get the flat-rate repair. I replaced mine with a refurb entry-level 13-inch MBP that nearly twice as fast, has over 4X the hard drive space, and cost half of what the old MBP did. That was after getting several estimates for a new logic board from third-party service centers that where in the US$500-900 range. I paid US$1020 for the refurb 13-incher. -
My macbook pro keeps freezing with vertical lines on the screen
I have a 2010 macbook pro that has worked wonderfully until now. As of late it keeps freezing with vertical lines across the screen. To me this indicates a hardware problem, but I ran a diagnostic (restarted while holding D) and it didn't find any errors. It seems that it happens when I move or bump my macbook, leading me to think it may possibly be a disk problem, but I'm not sure how to check this. Anybody else ever have this problem or could suggest a fix for it?
You can try a pram reset, which might help with the display, but the bumoing thing is what concerns me.
PRAM reset:
Power down, power back up and hold the following keys before the start up chime.
option, command, P, R,(no commas) continue to hold these keys till you hear the start up chime 2 times then release.
Reboot see if this helps, the bumping part scares me.
Hope this helps -
My MacBook Pro keeps shutting down and restarting with an error?
My MacBook pro is running the latest of Mavericks, all up to date. My computer just likes to shut down by itsself and reboot with an error saying "there was a problem blah blah blah, press any button to continue"
I've brought it in and the genius bar it was software, but I think it's either my RAM failing or my Harddrive failing. Any ideas?The 2010 MBP has had a problem with GPU/LB

I am having issues trying to start up with Mountain Lion on my 2010 Mac Mini. Here's the scenario:
1) After starting up, I get the usual gray screen with Apple logo.
2) After a few minutes, a darker gray screen scrolls down and in the middle of this is a black dialogue box with reversed (white) text. This text, in multiple languages, reads: "You need to restart your computer." Then it goes on to instruct on how to shut it down and restart it.
3) I follow this instruction, but get the same dialogue box over and over agin.
Any ideas?
Thanks and best wishes.If you can't boot in the usual way, try a safe boot. 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.
During startup, you’ll see a progress bar, and then the login screen, which appears even if you normally 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. Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all. Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is on a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. If you're able to boot, 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. ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid. Select the most recent panic log under System Diagnostic Reports. Post the entire contents — the text, please, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header and body of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don't post shutdownStall, spin, or hang reports. -
My MacBook Pro keeps coming up with the Reset Password Screen and won't let me access my computer!
When it turns on it comes up with the reset password screen, I complete the reset password and press restart but my computer doesn't restart and for a while doesn't turn on at all! After at least 10min it turns on and comes up with the same Reset password screen.
My Mac is up to date in OSX
Please help me! I need it for my homework!Hi Linda Loo Loo,
If you have backed up previously to iTunes on a specific computer, even if it has been a while, you may be able to still backup even if you are unable enter the passcode on your iPhone due to a damaged screen. You may find the following article helpful:
If you have previously synced your device with iTunes, you may be able to reset the passcode by restoring the device:
Connect the device to the computer with which you normally sync and open iTunes.
Note: If iTunes asks you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer" section below.
If the device is still disabled, or if iTunes does not automatically sync your device, sync the device with iTunes.
When the backup and sync is complete, restore your device.
When iOS Setup Assistant asks to set up your device, choose "Restore from iTunes backup".
Select your device in iTunes and choose the most recent backup of your device.
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode

Why Does My MacBook Pro Keep forcing a shut down?
Whenever I shut down my macbook pro MANUALLY it waits a little and then brings up the "you must restart your computer" screen (the one in diff languages). How do I stop this? Is this hurting my computer?
I have 2 external hardrrives (one FW), an Mbox, and mobile mouse connected at all times.Backing up should not be a problem. Has your computer had a knock recently? I'm just wondering if a RAM module may be slightly unseated. You can google YouTube videos on resetting it, you also may need to to search these forums to reset PRAM and SMC.
Good luck

i just replaced the hard drive on my macbook pro, reformatted new hard drive, installed a back up from time machine and now have kernel panic ( you must restart your computer) what do I need to do?
If you're able to boot, 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, press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

For privacy’s sake, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header and body of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don't post "shutdownStall" or "hang" reports.
If you can't boot in the usual way, try a safe boot. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
During startup, you’ll see a progress bar, and then the login screen, which appears even if you normally 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.
Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all. -
TS4185 When starting Facetime on my MAcBook Pro I receive "internal error? any help?
When I start Facetime on my MacBook Pro I receive "internal error. You need to quit and reopen Facetime". I do this and nothing changes, same error. Any ideas are welcome.

Re: "An internal FaceTime error occurred. There was a problem with FaceTime. "
Mar 28, 2011 11:14 AM (in response to iannuz86)
I have a solution for your problem, it took a little investigating and work to get FaceTime for Mac working. Here's what I did: Go to the folder /Applications then right click on FaceTime.app go into /Contents/LaunchAgents and look for two files "com.apple.imagent.plist" and "com.apple.apsd-ft.plist" and copy them into your /Home/yourusername/Library/LaunchAgents. If you can't find "com.apple.apsd-ft.plist" do a Google search for it and download it, the name will be "com.apple.apsd.plist.txt", do a cmd-I on it and rename it "com.apple.apsd-ft.plist" put this file in the same folder as "com.imagent.plist", launch FaceTime and if your webcam lights up, your good to go.
Hope this helps.
