My imac intel is frozen & closed padlocks after https!

I have 2 pages open. FB and another page. Mouse is working but nothing is clickable. Not even apple. I am in Safari. Please help!

Hi fisaa,
It seems your Mac has frozen and you are unable to use certain elements. I would suggest using the Force Quit command. This will help you determine which app may be causing the problem. The following article will instruct you on how to use it:
Force an app to close on your Mac - Apple Support
To close an app normally, choose Quit from the app menu. If an app is unresponsive, you can force it to close using Force Quit:
Choose Force Quit from the Apple menu, or press Command-Option-Esc
(this is similar to pressing Control-Alt-Delete on a PC).
Select the unresponsive app in the Force Quit window, then click Force Quit.
Learn more
Generally, you shouldn't need to use Force Quit unless you can't close an app normally.
The Finder is an app that your Mac keeps open, so there isn't an option to quit or close this app. If the Finder becomes unresponsive, you can use Force Quit to relaunch it. Select Finder in the Force Quit window, then click Relaunch.
If none of your apps are responsive, you can force your computer to restart.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

  • My iMac Intel 17" stalls at bluescreen after updating Tiger 10.4.6

    After auto upadting my OSX 10.4.6 on my iMac Intel 17" system it is stalling at bluescreen after the Apple symbol and wheel rotation page. Ineed help to come out of it. I have data in my desktop and also in Harddisk.
    iMac Intel 17"   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    I was installing the update to 10.4.6 earlier this evening, and had the very same problem that you described, Ambarisha.
    After about an hour on the bluescreen I got angry, and did a restart (the wrong thing to do, I know). It wouldn't even complete the load bar screen at that point, and would hang up.
    Then I tried tried Disc Utility, found a number of problems while verifying the disc, fixed them, restarted, and it locked up again on a blue screen after the load page bar disappeared.
    I ended up reinstalling the System from the OSX Install Discs that came with the Mac.
    Luckily, it seems as if all of the information is still on my computer, but I had to reinstall Photoshop because some files it used that are apparently installed in the system folder were now missing.
    So now I don't want to try to update at all for fear of more lost work time.
    Is this a common problem, and if so, is there a fix or perhaps a work around?
    Thanks for any help, and sorry that I could not answer your question, Ambarisha.

  • TA25225 Display Flickers in my 21" Imac Intel. This happened after the fan noise in my machine. I also reported the problem and gave to the service centre, but the problem still persist. Please help. I purchased it 3 - 4 weeks ago

    Hello,
    I purchased my imac intel 21" 3-4 weeks ago and in the 2nd week i faced an issue with the machine. When i switched on in, there was a fan noise and a white screen. The machine had hanged. I reported the problem and gave to the service centre. After testing for a week, they said that there is no problem with the imac. Again i faced the same problem after receiving it from the service centre. They again tested the machine for 3-4 days and reported as no problem with the machine. Couple of days back, I received the machine from the service centre, and on the same day when i switched it on, there are flickers in the display. Please help me solve the issue. I am from India. The service here is very bad.
    Hope for a resolution
    Thanks

    Hello RedDevil07
    Yes I agree with seventy one. It's common sense to do this, especially now. I would also contact AppleCare and report this issue with them, it will get documented and you will have a caseID that you can refer to when talking to them in the future should this issue go one.
    Be polite with AppleCare and your AASP. Hopefully everyone is being honest and trying to help you and not what might appear to be the opposite.
    Patience is a virtue, but I thoroughly understand your frustration.
    Let us know how it goes, we are here to help in whatever way we can.
    I encourage you to contact AppleCare to report this experience and get their recommendations. There is an expectation that you should have that AppleCare is there to help you as a customer. I am sure they will too!

  • I am puzzled by iMac(Intel ?).  I am running an iMac 24 and use Mac:Office 2008.  After having downloaded my Os X LION upgrade, I am suddenly unable to SAVE (and thus alter) my Excel quotations.  This is a major issue for a salesman.  Can anybody help me

    I am puzzled by the meaning of iMac (Intel) as I use an iMac 2 period.  I am running Mac : Office 2004 and do all my quotations in Excel.  After upgrading to OS X LION,  I am suddenly unable to SAVE my spreadsheets.  As a salesman whose quotations need frequent updating,  my situation is perilous to say the least.  Can anyone help me ?

    Office for Mac 2004 is NOT compatible with Lion. It must be upgraded to Office for Mac 2008 or 2011, once you have upgraded the files will be accessable. Office for Mac 2004 is written for old PPC (Power PC) based machines. Beginning with Lion support for PPC based apps has been dropped.

  • If i buy imac(intel) in canada apple store and then after i want 2 gift my brother in india so u can ship it in india

    if i buy imac(intel) in canada apple store and then after i want 2 gift my brother in india so u can ship it in india

    You will need to ask the authorities in India and Canada, this is a technical help forum. I suspect you are simply trying to save your brother money however I suspect it would be easier and less expensive in the long term if he buys the system he wants in India.

  • Hi! 21.5" iMac Intel after

    Hi! I had to reinstall OS X 10.6.8 on my 21.5" iMac Intel after which I can't install the Lion from the Apple Store I purchased last year. It downloads but comes with an error message to install. Any help is appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Make sure your Mac meets Lion's requirements:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    As for downloading issues ..  
    Installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo reinstalls the App Store for you which may help. It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.6.8.
    Restart your Mac after the combo is installed then launch the App Store.
    How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
    Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.

  • My imac intel display is frozen.  Both the mouse and my network is working.  Has anyone had problems like this and were you successful at fixing it?

    My imac (Intel) display is frozen.  Both the mouse and the network are working.  I've shut down various times, pulled the cord from the receptacle on the power strip, and restarted several times.  No luck.  Has anyone had problems like this and were you successful at fixing it?  Thanks.  Would appreciate any help.  Paula

    Same problem, but a c.2009 iMac running OS X 10.9.1. Just happened overnight. Presently, I'm able to access my HD via wireless via laptop and copying all non-backed up files to an external drive. So far, Paula is the only other person I've found with this same problem and hers was three years ago! Going to keep searching for an answer.

  • IMac screen is frozen even after re-starting several times.

    My iMac screen is frozen. I have used the alt-command-esc and can get the Force Quite box to come up but the box buttons are unresponsive. I have also alt-command and powered off and shift-key powered off (while holding for several seconds). When I turn the computer back on, it will boot up and begin with it's usual pop-up screens (APC PowerChute & Adobe Updater) which are currently unresponsive and just stay on the screen. I can run my mouse over the deck eyecons and it still tells the names of each, but nothing happens when I click on any of them. Same thing with any desktop eyecons and toolbars. Any suggestions on how to unfreeze the screen when I can't seem to be able to do anything?
    Many Thanks!

    Hello JosepiSantos,

    Display shows a white screen
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    If the iPhone will not turn off, try to reset it.

  • No sound on iMac Intel 24'' EMC 2267 after hard drive replacement

    I replaced my hard drive on my iMac Intel 24'' EMC 2267, due to numerous bad blocks, by following all the instructions on iFixit.com. I did not experience any problems.
    I then installed all my files from a Time Machine backup. There were no problems with the restoration of my files. It seems that my new hard drive works beautifully.
    However, one serious problem I have is that now there is no sound on my iMac. There is no startup chime, and there are no other sounds. When clicking on Sound in System preferences, it says that there are "no output devices found".
    When opening system profiler, in the Audio (built-in) tab it says "Audio ID: 0"
    I re-opeend my iMac to make sure that all cables were connected properly, and I did not manage to spot any problems.
    I tried to reset PRAM and EMC but these did not solve the problem. I am working under MacOS X 10.6.8
    Can someone help please? Any information provided will be most appreciated. Thanks in advance for your support.
    Regards - Gina

    I think when you replaced your hard drive you bumped into the daughter board and that is for the sound and the wireless, You need to get another daughterboard or contact the Apple Store if your Mac is stilll under warranty.

  • IMac Intel partition login problem

    Since yesterday our iMac runs very slowly and refuses to log in to the primary identity, although it will very slowly load two minor user identities. When one tries to log in on the main original user one, the screen goes blue without wavy lines and after 2 minutes or so goes back to the user identity login screen without comment. The only comment from the console was as follows:
    Jan 3 16:02:18 a-hs-computer/System/Library/CoreServices/loginwindow.app/Contents/Mac0S/loginw indow: Login Window Application Started
    Jan 3 16:02:19 a-hs-computer(243): Login Window Started Security Agent
    Mac OSX Version 10.4.1 (Build 8S2167)
    2010-01-03 +0100
    That is all!
    At 15:38 there is a crash report mdimport server crashed: 'SystemUIServer not responding', 'crashdump crashed' which repeats for 4-5 minutes incl. an 'Isregister crashed' in the middle somewhere, but is too long to repeat verbatim here.
    Checking with disk utility, the report goes as follows:
    "Checking HFS Plus volume
    Checking Extents Overflow file
    Checking catalog file
    Invalid node structure (in red)
    The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired
    (The program now demands I put in an administrative password but when I DO SO it stops the checking and just adds:
    Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit (in bigger red letters)
    1 HFS volume checked
    Volume needs repair.
    (But the repair button is greyed out.)
    Macs used to have a disk repair utility SOSDisk (with ambulance graphic) that one could use from the OS System disk, when starting with this. Can one repair with the iMac Intel OS CD?
    I saw our old AppleCare CD has TechTool on it. So installed it and tested the machine. The 2006 version reported that the Directory Scan had failed but the Drive Hardware had passed (so perhaps it is reparable). The Surface Scan was so slow that I skipped it once it had reported 4 errors. The final item, Volume Structure failed.
    Techtool then says TechTool Deluxe can attempt to "repair the damage" or "reduce the chance of future problems" but I find no trace of a repair tool on it. It takes one back to Apple Support to download the latest version of TechTool Deluxe (2009) but I find no trace of a useable repair tool on that one either, merely a checking system. This time the test passed the Directory scan which had failed with the earlier version, and I let the Surface Scan run slowly to its end over 2 hours, when it reported Failed with 72 errors. Volume Structure failed too.
    The newer Techtool is v. 3.1.3. As I did not put in the Apple Care identity when downloading (ours has expired) so is it possible I have a short version without the repair kit? Does anyone know Apple's policy on that? It seemed to download fine without the ApCare identity.
    Techtool instructions say one should burn the disk image of TechTool Deluxe DVD on a DVD using Disk Utility but when I get the disk image up and click on the burn button on DU, the DVD starts burning but spits the DVD back out after 30 seconds of burning. I am doing it wrong or is the DVD burn device broke. The machine will still burn CDs as I made some last night. But I have never ever burned a DVD using Disk Utility (1st tries today).
    Also, is it possible to start the machine using the Apple Care CD as system and repair with that? It seemed unlikely and this machine now takes so long to restart and really start working (2-3 hours) that I do not dare risk it yet. I use the damaged iMac still to contact you here.
    Thanks for any advice..!

    Unfortunately we are probably the only Mac in this desolate corner of North Germany where the inhabitants have always massively opted for Windows as they always go for the cheapest option. As far as I know we are the only Mac owners in a school of over 1500 people with 150 teachers. Had I been able to borrow a Mac, I would have linked it to ours long ago, got our data out and run DiskWarrior from the healthy Mac. The Hamburg techies are extremely expensive as they wrongly assume that anyone with a Mac must be eating off gold plate.
    I wd grab the opportunity to use a normal keyboard, if available. I see u are from California; that's a paradise for available Macs.
    Don't forget that we can't use the normal means of getting a disk to eject as there is no hard drive left worth the name and therefore no system operating, except whatever the system might be (unclear) on the DiskWarrior application,
    but that is totally frozen.
    Your feeling is that I want everything! Yes, another Mac, that would solve the problem. But if you mean that I need help for trifles you are quite wrong. I went through the lists of methods of ejecting disks listed on the web and by Apple before posting the request you have just replied to. And they look OS dependent to me, except perhaps the mouse button technique.
    In any case my first concern is to close that DiskWarrior application to avoid it being damaged before closing the disk, but that looks increasingly impossible.
    So far by my own efforts in this crisis I have largely solved a lot of problems worth at least 3500 dollars in techie bills had they done it. When we started by ringing the firm we bought the iMac from new, they said they could not help us over the jammed user partition problem, and merely provided the address of a data recovery service that would charge "between 2000 and 3000 Euros (3-4000 dollars)for saving the data on the HD". I refused and myself worked out how to hack into the user partition and was able to put most of the work and business data in the Documents folder onto sticks before the HD finally folded. Essentially the holiday pics in iPhoto remain still to do.
    I don't like the idea of having to sacrifice a brandnew DiskWarrior program for 108 Euros but if no one has any suggestions... Pity all this happened one month after our Apple Care 3 yr warranty ended.

  • IMac Intel and WinXP - Sharing Files Problem

    Hi there,
    I want to be able to retrieve my files from my Windows XP Pro SP2 computer to my iMac Intel. Both currently are connected via a NetGear Router and have an internet connection (satellite modem). I use the installed Apple Airport Express card.
    Problem is that I can't get either computer to see the other; however, I can successfully ping each one from the other one. There is no data loss, no delays. They are connected via ethernet cable from the satellite modem to the router, then from the WinXP computer to a different port on the router. Neither ethernet cable goes into the iMac.
    Therefore, as I know that the IP addresses seem to be correct, what else needs to be done here? I was speaking with an Apple rep on the phone who suggested taking one ethernet cable and remove it from the router and connect it direct to the iMac and run it to the XP. Problem is that now the XP computer has no internet connection. So, I have reversed it back in order that both computers can access the internet. (I caught them at their closing time apparently as the agent wasn't on the line when I went back on to report that I had changed the cable over...)
    When I select Go and then Connect to Server Settings, after about 1 minute I finally get an error message from the AFP server connection stating: "Connection Failed. The server may not exist or it is not operational at this time. Check the server name or IP address and try again. OK."
    I have disabled the firewall on the XP computer. I also removed the antispyware, the main firewall software and the antivirus software. (These are all from Freedom Software [now called ZeroKnowledge I believe].) I then reverted to the Windows Firewall and did some more tests. Nothing changed.The only difference here between this firewall being enabled and disabled is the speed with which the error message appears. If the Windows Firewall is DISabled then it takes about 2 seconds for this message to appear. If ENabled then about 1 min.
    So. Any suggestions on how I can get each computer to recognise the other? I would appreciate any suggestions here. Perhaps I've missed installing something or completing a step? According to Apple I have all I need at least for the iMac. As to the XP stuff I believe it is all fine...
    I'm new to all things Mac so details might be helpful for me.
    Thanks so much in advance.

    So is the router negotiating the connection with PPPoE for your local network giving you one external IP address and then using DHCP to negotiate local connections for your two computers or are each of the two computers negotiating their own connection with PPPoE giving them each separate external IP addresses?
