MacBook is stuck on the language instalation screen

I'm unable to reboot my Macbook since I have reset factory settings? It starts and freezes by the language screen? Help mostly a
ppreciated... Rgds Ricardo

If you reinstalled the OS, the tap to click option is not enabled by default. Are you actually down on the trackpad till you hear it click when clicking on the right arrow?
I hope this helps!

I replaced my hard drive and am installing the OS 10.5.6 that i got from Apple. It is stuck with 7 minutes remaining. Help! this is the first time I've ever done this.

I just replaced my hard drive in my 13" Macbook. I got the OS install disk from Apple but it's stuck with 7 minutes remaining. What do I do now? I let it check the disk before the install.

Did you properly prep your new drive first?
Drive Preparation
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder. If you need to reformat your startup volume, then you must boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (for Intel Macs) or APM (for PPC Macs) then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.
When formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Complete the OS X installation.
I think you should shutdown the installer then erase the drive per the above and start again.

When trying to install os x mavericks to my macbook pro as it started to install the computer now is stuck with the OS X Mavericks intall showing and I can't get out of it or force quit?

When trying to upgrade and install OS X Mmavericks to my Macbook Pro as it started to install the computer stopped the install and now is stuck with the OS X Mavericks intall window showing and I can't get out of it or force quit? I can not do anything else because this is stuck with this window/install screen showing. I have tried everything to get back to my regular desktop. I do not want to wipe the drive because I have photos on it that I want to save. So if there is any way to bypass this installer and get back to my regular desktop I would greatly appreciate the help.

My White Macbook is stuck at the loading screen, and disk utility, safe mode doesn't work either. What should I do?

I went on vacation a few days ago and in El Salvador, they have this mobile broadband sticks. Well, I was using one until it gave me a network error. After that, it shut down my computer entirely. The first time it happened, I didn't think much of it. I took the battery out and put it back in for it could work. It happened another two times, and after the third time, my MacBook stays stuck at the loading screen, and it will take 5-10 minutes on that screen, before it shuts down, or it wouldn't turn on at all. I've tried booting into safe mode, but it appears to not boot into it. I've tried resetting the Pram, and using disk utility, but that still won't work. I don't know what else to do to make it boot into OS X Lion.
I'm an AP student, and the majority of my work is in that computer, and it is very important! What can I do? Not only that, but I enter school in a few weeks and I need the AP work by the time I enter.
What can I do? Can someone help?
Thanks

Reinstalling Lion Without the Installer
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. Alterhatively, 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.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

Clean Install Of Yosemite Is Stuck!!

I am trying to do a clean install of Yosemite into a 2011 Macbook Air via a thumb drive after erasing the hard drive but the installer gets stuck at 8 or 9 minutes left and does not move past that. I have left it overnight and it did not change. I have tried about 3 install attempts. I have used the thumb drive method before with Mavericks and it worked fine. The last item in the install log is :
376 Oct 22 07:11:26 Macbook-Air.local OSInstaller[414] PackageKit: Extracting File:///System/Installation/Packages/Essentials.pkg (destination=/Volumes/Macintosh HD/.OSInstallSandboxPath/Root, uid=0)
Any thoughts on how to get it to finish installing?

Remove the Boot Camp partition only with Boot Camp Assistant, not with Disk Utility.
Install or Reinstall OS X 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 OS X: Select Reinstall OS X 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.

Yosemite upgrade stuck at x minutes for 10+ hours

Hi,
This is for the 6th time I am trying to upgrade.
It was a terrible idea, never faced it in my happy 10 years using a mac.
I wanted to upgrade it, it downloaded and now trying to upgrade for 14 hours straight.
The machine is running from last 40 hours, it is a Mid 2010 macbook pro.
Simply it is stuck at 4 minutes ( this is new, earlier it stuck at 3 minutes for 6 hours ) and log quota exceeded.
Please help.
Yes, I have tex, homebrew all these sort of stuff installed.
I promise never to upgrade to a free OS ( unless it is my kubuntu from where Iam typing it in ) again.
But for this time please help.
I have upgraded 4 times on different macs, never ever had this much trouble.
When it would end?

I finally decided that enough it enough, and cleaned the disk drive and installed Mac OS X.
I could back up data, and that was good enough for me.
Everything is fine.
I suggest anyone facing the issue should do the same.

I had 10.5.8 on my MacBook Pro 5,1
I needed an upgrade to 10.6
So I found this DVD somewhere " Snow_Leopard_10.6.1-10.6.2 _SSE2_SSE3_Intel_AMD_by_Hazard "
I started installing OSInstaller.mpkg
Installation process got stuck at 31 minutes where it was installing SystemBase
I got desperate and hit the power button to restart OS.

and I need anything that help me to install OS X any version
Please Help
Thank You

The following support article is somewhat outdated. Where it refers to booting from an installation disc, you should boot from your recovery partition (if running 10.7 or later) by holding down the key combination command-R at the chime.

PSE 8 for Mac stuck on "preparing to install"

Hi all,
Just received the disk of PSE 8 for Mac as a present. I try to install and it gets stuck on "preparing to install."
Equipment: MacBook Pro Running 10.6.2
Have Lightroom 2, Lightrroom 3 Beta, Acrobat 8 Pro, Flash Player and Community Help Client
Previously i bought and downloaded PSE 8 but I had the same issue. I 'returned it" and got my money back.
Ideas please?
Best,
Scott

HI Scott,
Copying the text from your post on the other thread which really helped in understanding this issue:
Scott says:
"I double click the disk and use the setup.app to install.
It checks the sys profile. I then put in my serial number, etc.
Then it just stays on “Preparing to install”. (How long is it meant to do this? Maybe I am not waiting long enough?)
I click the install button. It goes grey and then back to white.
Eventually I lose patience and quit out."
Your issue is definately different than the one which could have been resolved by the Tech Doc link which I sent you earlier, actually there are two time the string "Preparing to install.." is shown during the installer workflow, first during the initialization process before the Welcome Screen is shown to the user and second for 1-2 seconds between the transition of user clicking on Install button and Progress Bar being shown to the user. Since, in your case, installer is stucking at Progress bar, the Preparing to Install string is visible evidently to you. A screenshot would have been really helpful in understanding this issue. My bad I should have asked for it...
Regarding the current situation, the workaround here with which Barbara tried to help you, will not work, because your's is very specific and rare issue which we have seen reported only once before on the forum, so I am sure we will get it sorted out.Please follow the below steps:
1. Go inside the <Macintosh HD>\Applications\Utilities\Adobe Installers\ folder.
2. If there are any uninstall alias of Adobe sub components like ESTK, Extension Manager, Bridge, Adobe Updater, etc, then please invoke that installer and uninstall all those sub components.
3. Now try to install PSE 8 again.
4. If it still doesnt work, then please run the CS4 clean up script for Mac, and select CS4 from the drop down and let me know what all applications it is listing in it as available for cleaning/deleting.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406241.html#CS4CleanMac
Please keep me informed, if anything doesnt work out then eventually we will setup a time to meet over the internet and I will get this issue resolved.
Regards,
Ankush

MacBook gets "stuck'

Once in a while [this has happened about 4 times in the past week] I am typing something to one of my friends in an email, searching google, and talking to a friend on iChat. Every once in a while my MacBook gets "stuck". Like my keppad wont move, I can't type anything, etc. Then my MacBook goes to sleep [I have it go to sleep every 5 minutes inactive].
Sometimes, I leave my MacBook on when I go out, so it obvioussly goes into Sleep. When I return I usually just give the keypad a few strokes and my login window shows up. No problem. But twice I can't get it back from being frozen. If I hit apple+alt the screen returns from being black into the login screen, but I can't log in since I can't use my keypad.
The only way for me to fix this, is hold down the Power Button to turn the MacBook off, and restart it. Now I don't like to do that just for letting my MacBook work. Are there any keys that I could try, in which this might happen again?

It happen to me yesterday. And I did try buttons same way like you.
For solution,I run OnyX,repair Disc permissions and hope it'll not repeat...

Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
