Please help - boot issues, os issues HELP

so i came home after three months and started up my mac. i was having internet issues so i restarted the mac. ever since the mac has been tremendously slow, taking sometime 15 minutes to boot. after that every application runs absurdly slow. i searched the forums and found the suggestion to boot into open firmware and reser pram and nvram.
so i did that. after that the os x boot screem came up and the status bar seemed to be moving faster, but it gets all the way to the end of the bar and then just hangs.
i know have the tiger install dvd in the drive and am trying to reboot, because i saw the suggestion to run a hardware test and a disk repair but i cannot boot to the dvd either.
please HELP! i love my mac and am going crazy without it, having to use the horrible dell laptop my work gives me right now.

If your attempt to boot from Tiger DVD fails, it sounds like the directory on the disk drive is very damaged and corrupt, which can prevent booting.
Do you have a FireWire drive handy?
A backup?
You will need another drive to work from. And either a copy of TechTool Pro 4.5 or Disk Warrior probably.
You could try booting to Single User Mode (command s) and run fsck - though I suspect it will say it was unable to repair, nothing to lose - maybe.
How hard is to to disconnect the internal hard drive? or to replace it? or move it to a external FW/SATA interface case.

Will it boot OK in Safe Mode? See What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? (Mac OS X)
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107392 Takes a while to run, but it usually "fixes" problems.
Safe Boot takes longer than normal startup

Boot Up Issues PLEASE HELP!!!

My brother recently gave his old Power Mac G5 Quad-Core tower, it hadn't been used for a long time ( at least 5 years). I know it doesn't have a operating system on it right now. This morning I opened it up and cleaned it (5 years worth of dust). When I went to boot it up for the first time, it sounded ok for the first 3 sec. then I heard 2 consecutive beeps and the ALL THE FANS in the tower turned on and spun to they're full capacity (im sure) haha. Anybody know what happened? Hardware failure indicator? Please Help! don't want to recycle this beautiful machine

Hi Armando, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Besides the good advice so far...
Can you count the beeps or flashes?
1 beep = no RAM installed
2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
3 beeps = no good banks
4 beeps = no good boot images in the boot ROM (and/or bad sys config block)
5 beeps = processor is not usable
In addition to the beeps, on some computers the power LED will flash a corresponding number of times plus one. The LED will repeat the sequence after approximately a 5-second pause. The tones are only played once.
Note: In this case, a flash is considered to be 1/4 second or 250 ms or greater in length.
If you're sure the RAM is good, try the Hair Dryer trick...

PLEASE HELP IMMEDIATELY - BOOT CAMP ISSUE - CANNOT BOOT!

Ok guys, big problem here - Installed Boot Camp, partitioned 5GB, computer restarts to go to "install XP" and all I get is a Blank White Screen.
No OS boots, and XP doesn't install.
How do I force it to get to OSX to remove Boot Camp?!? Or at least force to get to OSX somehow?
I'm able to get to the OSX disk "installer", I forced a start on the Install disk... but that's as far as I've gotten
Please help immediately thanks!

Nevermind - I used my restore CD to "reboot on OSX HD 10.4.6" and am now deleting the partition as I type here

Please help me fix this issue.
Thank you,

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login 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.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

MBP running at a snail's pace, and a myriad of other interrelated issues, please help :'-(

Hello, my MBP is running very slowly, MS Office for Mac constantly freezing, Safari constantly freezing, various little issues are arising with many different functions/programs when I try to use them; i.e., the enter key will just stop working in Excel or my Adobe Acrobat will shut itself down out of nowhere, Finder freezes and/or won't relaunch; these are just a few examples, but the overall theme is that I am experiencing problems in usability and functionality with my MBP across the board. There is no rhyme or reason to any of it, and all programs and apps seem to be affected. I first began noticing the problems upon installation of the Yosemite upgrade so initially thought that was the issue, but I have since found that malware items have added themselves to my Safari extensions. I found instructions to remove them entirely, but could not find them anywhere on my computer other than the Safari extensions when I followed the steps provided. I tried clicking "uninstall", but had no luck, which is not surprising since I am pretty sure the "uninstall" option listed with the extension is just part of the malware. I have "disabled" the extensions, but that didn't do anything. I'm sure that they have implanted themselves elsewhere and are lurking in the shadows of my operating system and wreaking havoc throughout my computer.
The whole situation is making it extremely difficult to get anything done, and if I don't fix it soon it is going to be the major contributing factor to my complete mental collapse.
PLEASE HELP!!!
I tried to find suggestions in other areas of the Apple Support Community, and found the EtreCheck tool in one of the discussion threads. I ran the report on my system, and it looks like my MPB is riddled with problems. I don't even know where to begin in order to correct them. I am not sure if the malware has just taken over and is behind all of these, or if I am dealing with several different sources of trouble.
Any help with this would be much appreciated, the EtreCheck report is as follows:
Problem description:
MBP usability decreased significantly after installing Yosemite. Computer constantly freezing and completing any task in any program/using any function of MBP takes 5-10x as long as it used to.

I primarily buy from Crucial, Other World Computing, or MemoryTen. As long as they have a "configurator" where you pick you exact Mac from a list and it lists all the compatible memory for that Mac, AND it has a lifetime warranty on the RAM, it should be ok. Macs are very picky about the RAM because they use it to its full capacity. If there are any faults in the modules, it will crash.
There are suggestions for sites in other parts of the world on the EveryMac website. Look down in the Section for RAM where you'll find links to their sponsors (OWC is the US-based one).
In Apple's world, there is a difference between and "Upgrade" and an "Update." Updates should generally be installed as they patch vulnerabilities and fix bugs.
Upgrades on the other hand are an entirely new Operating System (OS). A change in the OS can cause many problems with your installed software as it may not be compatible with the changes. It may rely on programming interfaces that have been removed. They should know that they will be removed as Apple publishes those facts many years prior to removing the features.
An Upgrade takes you to a major, new version of software whereas and Update just makes changes to the same major version of the software.
Yosemite was an Upgrade, not an Update.

Event store UUIDs don't match naming your internal HD or any other drive/partition being backed-up. Time Machine can't be sure the OSX internal log of file changes that it normally uses is correct.
This happens in the following circumstances:
•The first backup of a disk, or to a new location
•After booting from your install disc, Recovery HD, or a different OSX volume (usually)
•A full restore
•Certain hardware repairs (e.g., new internal disk or logic board)
•Removal of large exclusions
•A very large volume of changes (especially an OSX update)
•An improper shutdown of your Mac, or improper disconnection or power loss on the Time Machine drive
•If it's an external HD, an improper shutdown or disconnection of the drive
•A failed or cancelled backup
•Many days without a backup
It usually causes a lengthy deep scan/traversal (below), so if you see it frequently, you need to figure out why it's happening.

Vista Premium Home Edition 32-bit on newest Macbook Issues PLEASE help!

Please someone help me with my problem, I'm begging! I've asked around a bunch of places and everyone comes back to me with "well it's a mac.. use it as a mac why do you have vista on it" and never seem to help me. I love my mac, but I also use Vista for many other programs.
Okay here's some backstory...
I recently had to buy a new macbook because my old white macbook came back to me unrepairable! So I had bought the newest model of the macbook, the aluminum 13-inch. Now on my old white one I had installed vista no problems at all, no issues. It ran beautifully! Now I thought I'd have no issues doing the same on the new macbook. Boy was I wrong! I portioned my disc - installed vista, installed the bootcamp drivers and started vista.
It was fine for a while but then I started getting sound cut outs and screaching noises! When I am gaming the sound cuts out completely but not before the game freezes. Then I started having issues watching videos and listening to audio on firefox. Then it'd crash completely! Now it's started shutting off completely giving me a blue screen for a couple seconds telling me there may be a conflict or driver issue. It doesnt stay on long enough for me to read but I ended up checking windows problems and solutions and found this:
"This problem was caused by a compatibility issue between Intel 82801GBM (ICH7-M) LPC Interface Controller - 27B9 and this version of Windows.
Intel 82801GBM (ICH7-M) LPC Interface Controller - 27B9 was created by Intel Corporation and is distributed by Apple Inc.."
Also driver not found? - "Windows detected a new device attached to your computer, but could not find the driver software it needs to make the device usable. Each device manufacturer typically includes driver software of a CD that comes with the device, or as a download from its website. The hardware ID of your device is ACPI\APP0001."
I don't know how to fix it. I've been trying everything - reading forums, trying to update drivers, reinstalling bootcamp drivers, and vista repair... I just have no idea what to do! Please help me!!! Please please! If you need more information ask for my email so I can talk to you more in-depth so I don't go insane trying to figure this out!

What do you want someone to say or do.
The story slides into information about Intel chipsets and crashing. That to me says take it into Apple and have AppleCare do something.
There is no reason to deal with an issue. A Mac is a personal computer. There is nothing that says it can't run Linux or Vista or has to run Leopard (though it isn't supported on older versions of OS X).
I've used Vista for over two years now, from RC1 pre-release to the latest SP2 beta.
Is your version of Vista SP1 or the older original?
I've found lately that I need to install some software even before Vista starts doing all the updates. Apple Boot Camp but also AV software etc. HOWEVER, given some of the reports, I sometimes wonder if the Apple Windows drivers are current and were tested on late 2008 to work with Vista and XP SP3.
I would think Vista SP1+ would be best bet. I'd even install Vista and then see when Windows 7 beta is officially available to the public, it runs better on laptops than Vista or XP. Better battery life, support for mobile and wireless devices etc.
You could play around and I've downloaded drivers or looked for drivers on Intel, something you would do on any PC running Vista. Maybe these links and discussions or Intel's. And find people and places that support you rather than "lecture." I don't know, haven't read up, on the device, or use a MacBook, but maybe these will help you.
"Intel 82801GBM (ICH7-M) LPC"
From Intel: "Intel 82801GBM"
A number of reviews have come out looking at "who makes the best Vista capable laptop" and MacBook Pro and Air have both gotten high marks from reviewers like ComputerWorld.

I tried downloading other versions (releases whatever) and still no dice. It always hangs on waiting for Udev events.
The Net install gets further and asks for a password and user name ( trying the default root password isn't working, after multiple attempts returns me to login prompt).
I have various issues with other distributions as well here are some of the others I have tried so far:
Gentoo: hangs at Syslinux 3.86 2010-04-01 ebios line
Ubuntu: hangs after selecting boot/ install ubuntu
Arch linux: see above
Chakra: does not recognize anything no boot screen or anything just hangs at blinking cursor or boots into windows
PeppermintOS: hangs at SYS LINUX screen as well.
Please help me Arch linux wan kanobi you are my only hope!
Im lost... and am new to Arch linux though I have done allot of research on it and cant find an answer. I have been using linux for a while in the past, and have installed multiple distributions before without issue. The udev error is from a cd boot....

I'm having this same problem, but the machine locks up for no less than 10 hours (I let it set all night). At the startup screen, it still shows "Starting udevd..." and remains there. I tried looking at the logs, but nothing gives any sort of indication of what is causing it to hang up forever. I don't have a Realtek (dmesg shows Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Driver - 1.5.1-k). As I'm still struggling with Linux at such a low level, it would probably be best to wait for the fix.
BTW, Thank you to the developers, tech support, helpers, etc. etc. for Arch Linux and all their hard work/support, without which I would be totally lost and wandering aimlessly through a barren desert with a canteen full of sand and no direction in which to go and have no real meaning or purpose in life (a.k.a. using Windows).
In case this is helpful to anyone else:

AMD 6100 FX cpu

So what happens when you boot it up? What do you get?

Trackpad Issue - Please Help!

Hi there,
Hope you can help me out here.
I've recently purchased a 15" i7 Macbook pro. The machine is but 3 weeks old &, of course, very well looked after.
A few days ago, the built-in trackpad started behaving eratically. Cursor moving by itself, not responding to touch, clicking and opening things involuntarily. Not good at all. Many users seem to have had this exact same issue.
These problems seemed to miraculously stop after a few re-boots and possibly a software update? I really couldn't tell you what resolved the problem.
Unfortunately I now have a totally different problem.
There is a thin, possibly 8 to 10mm horizontal strip across the centre of the trackpad that no longer responds to touch. If I move my finger from the botom of the trackpad upwards (or vice versa), the cursor will stop momentarily as it passes over the horizontal strip. The buttons are fine and the rest of the trackpad is fine. For the moment, I've increased the cursor acceleration so that I can at least navigate round the screen with a smaller area of the trackpad. USB magic mouse seems to work fine.
If anyone else has experienced this &/or found a solution for this issue, please help me out here. I have rifled through endless threads about MBP trackpad issues with little success & do not live close to an apple store/genius bar.
This is a 3 week old machine that cost me a small fortune. To be getting software/hardware issues so early on in it's lifespan is really rather worrying for the future.
Appreciate your help here.

I'm not sure what caused this, but I extended my lunch break and drove the machine down to the Westfield apple store. I didn't have an appointment with the Genius Bar but I managed to persuade one of the staff to speak to a technician in the workshop. She came back into the store and told me that they had replacement trackpads and that , considering the machine was only 3 weeks old, the technicians kindly sandwiched the repair into their timetable at zero cost. 2 Hours later, I now have a perfectly functioning trackpad/machine.
I can't thank them enough.
My only gripe is that I couldn't speak to a technician to find out what the problem was, how they resolved it or what causes these issues for future reference. Understanding why these problems occur often helps to build your own framework of understanding. Most of the threads i've read about trackpad issues are largely unresolved with people only speculating the problem/solution.
The initial issue I had with the trackpad's erratic behaviour seemed to be a well known problem that many are associating with a trackpad firmware update. Unless by pure coincidence I had an immediate & major hardware fault after it, which is unlikely, my personal guess is that the two issues were related.

Serious issues with iMac, black screen during erase and install-PLEASE HELP

My sister's Intel iMac G5 seriously has been a lemon, it has had SO many issues. It's now 2 years old, and has been rather slow for the maybe the last year, but over the last month or so it has gone way downhill, and it literally takes an hour to boot up, and 4-5 minutes to do anything (open an application, look at a photo in iPhoto, etc.). So, we've been trying to "erase and install" with her install discs to hopefully give the computer a clean boot and see if it helps at all. She has already backed everything up.
She started the erase and install last night, and it was going ridiculously slow. This morning when she woke up, the blue progress bar had gone about half way across. Then she went to get her kids ready, and when she came back in it looked like the computer was rebooting itself (gray screen with apple), but then the screen turned black and she can't do anything on it. Has anyone seen anything similar to this before?
We have had so much trouble getting this to work (we tried an archive and install a few days ago, but it gave her an error at the end). For about a day we couldn't even get the computer to boot up at all, but then miraculously yesterday morning it booted! Please help, I've converted her to Macs but if I can't get hers fixed she may never get one again!!

I'm afraid that it's a contradiction in terms to talk about an intel iMac G5. What your sister has is an intel machine, and she will find good advice by posting to the [intel iMac Forum|http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1110].

Please help - boot issues, os issues HELP
