I tried to turn my mac on 2 days ago and this is what came up. The message tells me to restart my computer but every time I do it just comes back to the same screen. We done have Internet at my home so I am unsure how this could have happened. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

what is your mac OS version and your iMac model? The pre-2006 iMacs this forum covers have different troubleshooting steps from newer iMacs, so we need to make sure which you have. The non-intuituve forum labeling here means people with relatively recent iMacs are tricked in to posting here instead of a more active forum for iMacs made since 2006.

    Hi, have a MacBook Pro and upon start up the full error that has come up is panic(cpu 0 aller 8xffffff800047cc6c): "Process 1 exec of /sbin/launchd failed, errno 2\n"@/SourceCache/xnu/xnu-1504. 15.3/bsb/kern/kern_exec.c:3145
    It just tells me to restart my computer. Hold down the power button until it turns off, then press the power button again.... that's it!
    I put the disc in that it came with so I could see if a recovery file has come up but nothing.
    Please know that I'm not a tech, but I can follow instructions well.

    Hi,
    Is there more after that on the same line?
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
    One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
    Reboot, test again.
    If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts (Users & Groups in later OSX versions)>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
    Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.

    fredericlang,
    Your plan sounds good to me, and yes, there could be some "intermittent" hardware failure causing the panics.
    Before we go on, I want to establish that you should NEVER have a panic, provided you have three things:
    1) Flawless hardware
    2) A flawless installation (which is why we are "zeroing" and reinstalling)
    3) No bad or conflicting kernel extension
    To back this up, I will tell you that I have only had one KP on this machine, it was long ago, and it was due to a disk error (and thus a bad installation). Currently, my "uptime" is at 44 days, 13 1/2 hours, and I put this thing through its paces every day.
    OK, well a 4th thing: Problematic peripherals.
    Let's rule these out, one by one. Are you connecting anything that could cause panics, or is anything connected when they occur? No? Let's move on.
    We are pretty sure we have ruled out a bad installation, and you are going to make double sure. Good.
    Are you installing any third-party "haxies," or anything else that might place kernel extensions in the Extensions folder? Are you running the Migration Assistant to transfer stuff from a PPC machine? If you can rule this last one out, we are left with only one possibility...
    HARDWARE! As I say, you should never have a single kernel panic. If you have narrowed it down to hardware, and they still occur, be firm! Insist, regardless of the results of any diagnostics, that you have a new machine, or a logic board/memory replacement. If necessary, escalate your case. Get this fixed, and get it fixed expeditiously.

    Since pse 9 can only use up to camera raw 6.5 and the d600 needs at least 7.3 and the d800 needs at least 6.7, you can use the
    8.6 adobe dng converter to convert those files to dng copies, which then pse 9 should open.

    I accepted a call from a friend and i was looking through the call logs and scrolled through the history and it said that call was a 'conference call'. What does this mean.
    I'm used to seeing 'placed call, missed call, received call"

    A conference call is a call between three or more people. Your friend may have inadvertently hit the conference call feature and only added you to the call or it is possible there was a third person listening in.

  • Load of /sbin/launchd failed, errno 2 - CRT iMac

    Hi,
    I've been working on my parents' iMac, which was booting to Darwin. I followed the instructions in another thread and booted to single user mode, and then did the /sbin/fsck -fy. This produced a massive stream of errors to be corrected - it went for pages and pages. I didn't write it down, because I didn't expect to be locked out, but it was lots of different errors. It seemed to be correcting things, but then it got to something about a directory or header file, and it stalled on the message **Look in the lost-found something something for the missing files**. At this point it died...I gave it some time, and when it was obvious nothing was going on, I hesitantly forced a reboot.
    Now in a single-user boot I can't even get to a command prompt. I wrote down some of the last few lines displayed:
    BSD root diskOs5, major 14, minor 5
    jnl: journal start/end pointers reset (some number strings in here)
    Load of /sbin/launchd errno2, trying /sbin/mach_init
    Load of /sbin/launchd failed, errno2
    And that's where it stops every time. Is it bricked? I'm afraid I don't know what their model is, but I believe there were running the latest Mac OS compatible with a CRT iMac - I recall putting more RAM in the machine so they could upgrade the OS a year ago, maybe.
    Many thanks...

    Since it's a slot-loader iMac (600 MHz), you can use a feature called FireWire Target Disk Mode.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1661
    You can then connect the iMac to your other Mac using a FireWIre cable (assuming it also has a FireWire port). Now, the iMac's hard drive will (hopefully) appear as an external FireWire drive on the other Mac's Desktop. If that works, immediately attempt to copy off all the valuable user data on the iMac's hard drive to the other Mac. Then, if the other Mac has sufficient free storage space, you may want to make a disk image of the iMac's hard drive using Disk Utility. After the image file is created and saved to the other Mac, make sure it can be mounted and accessed.
    At this point, you should try using Disk Utility on the other Mac to repair the iMac's hard drive. If the other Mac has Leopard, it has a newer version of Disk Utility so it may be able to do the fix.
    If that does not work, and you don't have third party utilities such as DiskWarrior or TechTool Pro to try, you should probably erase the iMac's internal drive using Disk Utility. After erasing completes, go to the Restore tab in Disk Utility. Make that disk image file the Source and the newly erased internal drive the Destination. Check the box for +Erase destination+, and click the Restore button.
    If that process completes successfully, use +Repair Disk+ again to make sure there are no errors on the iMac's internal drive. Then, unmount the iMac's internal drive and disconnect the iMac from the other Mac, and attempt to start it up normally.
    If it does start up and operate normally, great... If not, you may have to start up from the Mac OS X installation disk for 10.4.x and use the installation option for +Archive and Install+. This this give you a fresh system while retaining the user's account and data. Be sure to run Software Update a few times to install all the updates.
    Worst case (if +Archive and Install+ does not make the Mac bootable), you will have to use the +Erase and Install+ option and then separately restore the user's data from that disk image.
    Please post back if there are any questions about the above, or you don't get passed one of my many "if" statements.

  • Kernel Panic: What does this mean please?

    Several days ago I downloaded 10.4.11 update and got an icon placed on my desktop. I double-clicked it and it said it didn't recognize it, so I put the icon in the trash.
    That night when I tried to shut down it progressed normally until I got a dark screen. Then, just when I thought it was closed down, up pops a rectangle that says "You need to restart the computer. Hold down the power key for several seconds."
    I held down the power key, and instead of the computer starting back up, it turned off. I didn't think much about it. But then the next night it did the same thing again, and again last night.
    It has only done it on that one user account where I downloaded the update to my desktop. And one night I verified permissions, verified the disk, shut everything down one=by-one, and disconnected before shutting down, and it did not do it that night. But did do it again the next night. Here is the report that it gave me:

    Cyan,
    I'm not an expert in this field, but I can suggest the catchall "Archive and Install" option on your Mac OS X Install DVD. "Archive and Install" backs up your current system folder (and also your documents, music, and pictures), and installs a fresh system on your hard disk. You can then drag the "Previous System" folder to the Trash after the installer is finished. I am going to assume that the Mac OS X 10.4.11 update caused this, as your computer seemed to be working properly before the update.
    To "Archive and Install", start your computer from your Mac OS X Install DVD (by holding down the "C" key with the Install DVD in the drive as your Mac boots). Next, after you see the Mac OS X Installer, follow the prompts until you reach the "Destination" screen. Once you select your current hard disk, click the "Options" button in the lower left-hand corner of your screen. In the window that appears, choose the "Archive and Install" button, and *make sure* that the "Preserve Users and Network Settings" is selected. Then, proceed with the install. Once the installer completes and you have a working system, open your Macintosh HD. There, you should see a folder called "Previous System". Once you are sure that your current system is working, you may drag this folder to the Trash, and then empty the Trash. If you need more help with "Archive and Install", please look at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120.
    Also, once the install completes and you have a functioning system, *do not* download the Mac OS X 10.4.11 update. 10.4.11 has been known to cause problems for many Mac users. You can download the Mac OS X 10.4.10 Update from http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx10410comboupdateppc.html for PowerPC processors, and http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx10410comboupdatev11intel.html for Intel processors. These are "combo" updaters-they will update any Mac OS X 10.4 version (from 10.4.0 to 10.4.9) to version 10.4.10.
    Good luck!

  • In less than 2 weeks, I had a panic attack on my Macbook 10.6.8. What does this mean?

    In less than 2 weeks, my macbook 10.6.8 had a panic attack. Shortly before it happened 2 weeks ago, I got this call from someone saying he was from Apple and he got a report that something was wrong with my computer. Since I hadn't called any one I thought it was a prank call and I hung up. Shortly after that I received the message to power down my computer. Do people from Apple make calls like this? I tried to find the number but I think it one of those caller unavailable, that's why I hung up. What could be causing this panic attack? Since 2007, it's happened before but few and far between. I did add new memory about a month ago but other than that, I've added nothing. I hope you can help me because I am on very limited budget and can't buy a new one. Thanks for your help.

    The call as well as any similar email messages claiming to be from Apple are all phishing scams. We can't help you until you post a kernel panic log: Mac OS X- How to log a kernel panic. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on diagnosing kernel panics.
