My New iMac 21.5" randomly freezes and reboots itself.

Can some decipher what the problem is? Is it hardware related?

  • Lumia 620 randomly freezes and reboots

    I knew a cheap windows phone is too good to be true. I've been getting random freezes and reboots without any reason at all. This is unacceptable, nokia should address this windows 8 issue afflicting wp 8 phones. Please don't tell be to do a soft or hard reset because we already know it won't fix the problem.

    Hi, everyone. I've been having problems with random reboots ever since I bought my Lumia 620 and it was driving me crazy. It freezes up sporadically too, but I think I found a fix for rebooting issues.
    When my cousin bought her Lumia 620 I immediately asked her if hers rebooted sporadically as well. She said it hadn't, not once. Then, one time her battery was dying so I gave her mine, and she left me with her battery and on charger while she went home. Anyway, hers started to reboot frequently, whilst mine was behaving ok.
    When we replaced the batteries again, mine began rebooting again.
    Finally, I checked both our batteries and found out mine was moving around the device more freely than hers. Hers was held firmly in place while mine danced around. Then I tried moderate, yet gentle tap on the side of my device and it rebooted EVERY TIME I tapped it. After I inserted a small, neatly folded piece of paper between the device and the battery, the battery clicked in place tightly and it couldn't move at all. Reboots stopped, no matter how strong I tapped the sides of the device.
    This hasn't resolved any freezes, but at least it's not rebooting all the time. So check your battery, maybe it is a hairline thinner or smaller or whatnot from the rest of them and it can move around. A millisecond is enough for it to lose contact, half a millimeter of movement is enough to cause your phone to reboot. Hope this revelation of mine will help someone

  • Iphone 3gs freezes and reboots itself every now and then

    Hi, I have an iPhone 3GS with latest firmware 5.0.1 and sometimes it just freezes and reboots itself. I tried to restore it as new, from backup, I upgraded firmwares but still every now and then it just reboots itself. Often when I start the phone in the morning it reboots several times in a row. Are the latest firmwares buggy or what? Please help!

    I found solution on this forum.  He said the problem solved by reset all setting -> as new phone.  (Don't worry, data is preserved).  This works for me so far.. keep my finger cross.

  • My iPod Touch is freezing and rebooting itself.

    Hi.
    Here's the story:
    My iPod was recently working yesterday. I left it on the wall charger for a while, and later I come back to find my iPod frozen, out of nowhere. For another while, it freezes and starts to reboot itself. I done all I can. I watched videos on how to unfreeze it and etc, and I tried restoring it, and doing about everything I can to recover this iPod, it doesn't work. So I turned it off, and let it settle overnight. This morning, I turn it on, and it restored, everything was working fine, until when I go to my Messages app, it freezes once again, and now it is doing the same thing, but this time it repeats to the home screen, freezes, and reboots again. I tried calling for support and they said my warranty is expired.
    I own an iPod Touch 4G, 8GB, for about 6 months.
    To be specific: It always goes to the Apple logo and then the loading circle then shuts off, then does it again. Before this problem about a day before this happened, I accidentally put a little water on it and wiped it off while I was working on chores. (Sorry, I often have it next to me a lot.) Plus, I did have a lot of data on it but it didn't seem much of a problem. 
    Please, if anyone can help, tell me what is the reason behind this problem, and at least if you can try to solve this for me. I will try going to a local Apple store later on if this problem keeps going. But for right now, I need this help. Thank you all.
    Bye.

    - Have yu tried letting the battery fully draining and then charging and trying to retore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod?
    - Try placing it is recovery mode and then DFU mode and then restoring if necessary.
    - For recovery mode:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - For DFU mode

  • IMac (i3 2010) random freezing and now with 3 beeps

    Hi I have a 21" iMac i3 base model with 8Gb of Ram (see below).
    Ever since I got the mac about 10 months ago it has been randomly freezing up, becoming completely unresponsive to any input (keyboard mice etc), and can only be fixed by a hard reboot (holding down power button).
    It can happen while I am away at lunch and I come back to find it frozen on the screen saver. Other times I'm just browsing the web (nb has happens with safari, firefox, and chrome). While others times I have been using the system to its fullest. There never seems to be a reproducible way of triggering it. I can go for a week without issue, and then it can happen 6+ times a day, and they go back to being fine again for awhile. Although it has been getting progressively worse over time and more constant.
    I have tried repairing permissions (disk utility and onyx). Defraged the drive (drive genius), run TechTools pro and it passed all the tests. I don't have access to the orginal disks (work iMac) so running the AHT is not possible, as is a clean instal.
    I updated to 10.6.8 this week, and now when it freezes, it is now accopained by 3 loud beeps...pause...3 beeps etc etc.
    This suggests that it could be a memory problem, but I have never had a problem during the boot up process, and as I said it has passed the memory test on both TechTools6 and Rember, I'm not sure if this is the case.
    Because the system completely frezzes, there is no log or error reports created, meaning that pin-pointing the issue or even having proof for the tech-guys/Apple is difficult.
    Has anyone got any suggestions on a fix, or how I might be able to get an error report, or how I could induce the problem on que.
    Thanks heaps

    Ok so it definitely appears to be the RAM. I have found a way to reproduce the crashing....Running Prime95. Its normally takes about 15-30min on the stresstest to get the system to lock up.
    But here is the strange thing. It only seems to work if I have the full 8Gb installed.
    I have run each 2Gb stick by itself without issues.
    And then run 6Gb, changing the empty slot each time, and again no crashing.
    I found the following thread also has similar issues, with the RAM the most likely cause.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/15610565#15610565
    I can discount USB,wifi,bluetooth as I tried this and still managed to get a crash.
    But I did have screen sharing on so I am now testing if I can run the 8Gb with this disabled.
    Will report back with my findings.

  • Macbook Air random freeze and reboot, plus other problems

    I've had my Macbook Air for about 6 weeks and am having several issues. It is the 13" model, special ordered with 8GB of ram so it came straight from the factory. I copied all my data over from a mid-2010 15" Macbook Pro using migration assistant, and for the most part it has been a wonderful machine. There are a few problems, however, and now it is getting more serious.
    First, I visited my closest Apple store to have them look at the wifi and bluetooth connection. It was not picking up wifi after waking up, and the same for my bluetooth mouse. They replaced some files and tested it out and it appeared to be fixed, but the problem persists. At least 50% of the time when I wake it up after leaving for 30-60 minutes, I click the mouse and it wakes up, but then there is no response when I move or click the mouse again. I often have to turn the mouse off and on several times to get it to connect.
    Wifi is the same, though not as bad. Probably 10% of the time, it will not connect to a known wifi spot after wake. Sometimes it even tells me that none of my trusted networks are available, even when the network I use everyday is listed as available. This is a minor inconvenience, but it is a problem I never had with the macbook pro. Instead of picking up wifi within 10 seconds of wake, it can take as long as 60-90 seconds.
    Now the real issues begin. Yesterday morning I stepped away from the computer for a few minutes, and when I returned it had rebooted itself. I do not know why. Only a few programs were running, nothing like system update that would restart the computer. I did a search online but could not find anything recent enough to point to a possible problem.
    Then this morning it froze while I was using it. Mouse and keyboard (both external and the ones on the laptop) stopped responding. After a few minutes of waiting I finally shut it down by holding the power button until it turned off. This was alarming, especially less than 2 months after buying the machine. I will likely make an appointment at the Apple store again but these issues happen randomly and if I can't reproduce it they have little hope of diagnosing the problem.
    Has anyone else had similar issues? I have run system update and nothing else is pending. This weekend I may restore it to factory settings and load all my data manually instead of copying from timemachine, but that is a royal pain. I'm looking for any suggestions of what to do because I planned to use this computer for years and the first 6 weeks have been very frustrating.

    It is probably best to return to the Apple store for assistance, however, you do have 90 days of phone (in the US 800-275-2273) access to Apple which you can use too. If you buy Applecare anytime in the first year of ownership, the warranty and phone access is extended for a total of 3 years coverage  (warranty and phone).

  • Random freezes and reboots

    Hi, over the past few weeks my MBP's been acting up by completely locking up for a few seconds and then randomly restarting itself, often freezing during the reboot process, or at least that what I assume it's doing. It goes black and I can hear the drive whirring as if it's going to reboot, then it just remains black, but I can still hear the system running. Sometimes when it does this it reboots without issue, and for the times when it doesn't, I force it to shut down by holding the power button and turning it back on.
    When it's back on all is normal, no unusual pauses in the booting process or anything. The computer's not overheating, and I'm never doing anything strenuous to the processor on it when this happens. And of course the computer's not being shaken.
    It happened once a few weeks ago, and four times in one day, and sporadically throughout the past few weeks. Often it won't happen for 1-3 days at a time, and sometimes it will only happen once a day, or more. I've only been using it for two hours and it's already happened three times today. I've had this computer for over a year now and I've never had a problem with it before.

    Try running in Safe Mode to see if the panics stop. If they do, then you have a problem with one or more of your installed third-party extensions:
    com.github.osxfuse.filesystems.osxfusefs          2.5.2
    rabb.it.driver.RabbitEars          2.1.4
    com.logmein.driver.LogMeInSoundDriver          1.0.0
    com.attotech.driver.ATTOiSCSI          3.4.1b1
    com.TrustedData.driver.VendorSpecificType00          1.5.0
    com.promise.driver.stex          5.1.62
    I would bet on OS X Fuse, but there are several there I'm not familiar with.

  • Computer slowing down, freezing, and rebooting itself

    I have a macbook pro, 2.6 Ghz and its running so incredibly slow you would of thought it was from 1990. If I click to fast it dies, spotlight causes it to freeze, apps boot really slow or auto quit, it has occasionally just restarted by itself. I have done the disk utility check and it says it's just peachy. I have also tried to install cocktail but it won't even load onto my computer. Most of the time now the only way to shut down is to hold power button because apps wont quit or even force quit. What is wrong and if I have to reinstall all software how do I transfer all my stuff. I also have 90GB of the 150GB so it's not memory either.
    Chris Cross

    HI,
    *"I have done the disk utility check and it says it's just peachy"*
    Define peachy. Does it actually say the, "hard drive appears to be ok"?
    *"I also have 90GB of the 150GB so it's not memory either."*
    I think you are confusing available disk space with RAM. But as long as your available disk never falls below 15% of the total capacity of the drive, you're ok.
    *"it has occasionally just restarted by itself."*
    How long have you had this MacBook Pro? Do you have AppleCare?
    If your MBPro is restarting on it's own then try resetting the SMC, instructions here.

    Do you shut your Mac down at night or let it sleep? If you shut it down every night then it cannot run cron tasks. (Maintenance) Here is how to find out when those tasks were last performed by your Mac.
    http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/maintscripts.html#Anchor-Determining-47857
    Try using a different user account and see if these problems persist. If they do, then the problems are system wide, not isolated to your admin account.
    Try running the Apple Hardware Test, instructions here.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2684
    If you can, back up important data just in case the drive fails completely.
    Last recourse is to do an Erase and Install.

  • Nokia E71 freezes and reboots itself when receivin...

    My phone has numerous times frozen when I receive calls. The phone has also been replaced locally but the same problem persists even on the new unit... I assume it is software related.

    Battman, you won't get updates in the form of texts or e-mail. You will get "alerts" if there are any updates, if you have subscribed to the My Nokia service.
    You can check for updates and install them through FOTA. Type *#0000# on the stand-by, you will be shown the current firmware in your phone: press Options -> Check for updates. If there's an update available through FOTA, you will be prompted to install it. Otherwise, you will have to use Nokia Software Updater that can be downloaded for free from the Nokia website. Another option is to take it to a Nokia Care Point, but they might charge you for the service.
    Hope this helps

    Almost certainly, some sort of hardware problem on your logic board.

  • My Macbook Pro *****! I have had it for 2 weeks now, got it brand new at the apple store, it freezes all the time, and reboots itself, sometimes when i start it, purple dots cover the screen and i have to hold the power button.

    I have had it for 2 weeks now, got it brand new at the apple store, it freezes all the time, and reboots itself, sometimes when i start it, purple dots cover the screen and i have to hold the power button. a 2 week old computer is not supposed to do this! it wastes all its time being so flashy that it just craps out all the time. sometimes i feel like i should have stayed with my virus covered PC. at least when it shut down randomly you could turn it back on, but with the macbook pro, it just keeps restarting itself over and over. need help with this, any answers?

    Here's a novel thought. Take it back to the vendor. Should have done that one week ago.

  • New IMac is crashing randomly..a semi-transparent gray veil appears

    New IMac is crashing randomly..a semi-transparent gray veil appears from top of monitor and animates down the screen.  Message appears to restart the computer.  Running 10.6.7, 2.8 GHz Core i5, 4Gb ram.  What is causing this?

    You've experienced a kernel panic; they can be caused by several things, usually though defective RAM can be suspected. here is some information for you:

    You need to transfer the iTunes Library from the most recent backup you made before the hard drive was replaced.
    You can't transfer the full iTunes Library from the iPad back to iTunes.
    There are third-party Windows applications that will transfer data from an iOS device, but they don't re-create the iTunes Library exactly as it was before.

    Problems setting up my TC. Have just bought new iMac(OS 10.6.8) and  TC. I tried to set it up. iMac cannot find it. I have tried direct connection with an ethernet cable to Mac or direct to my wireless router but nothing. Just a flashing orange light. Help for a simpleton please. Have tried reseting TC, but to no avail.

    Just updated from 10.6.7 ---> 10.6.8 and had the same issue. Despite having done a clean install from 10.6 and got everything back off my TC, now Time Machine can't find it!
    Green light is on, ethernet cable conected, network CP says its conected but nothing. Airport Utility can't find it. Hit reset button, Orange flashing light but still no show in Airport Utility.
    But I know its there, as rebooting from 10.6 SL disk shows the backups are still ok?
    Hmm, ideas anyone?
