Have you any idea to fix it?
Thanks a lot!

Hi and Welcome to Apple Discussions.
These symbols are from Apple's Last Resort font, and indicate that a major problem has arisen with the OS's ability to use the basic system fonts. It's been reported here a few times, and I think the only solution is to reinstall all system fonts. See Kurt Lang's post.
Here is a user tip by Kurt Lang that lists all necessary system fonts and their locations.

  • Applications crashing after installing security update 2010-003

    Hi all, anyone else having this problem (and found a solution)? After installing security update 2010-003 on snow 10.6.3, entourage, firefox, and even itunes are crashing at launch. Safari seems stable, but haven't tried other apps yet. Verified permissions on my boot disk and repaired it but the problem persists. It started after rebooting after installing the security update. I'll reinstall the OS if needed but hoping this is a bug someone has solved. Thanks!

  • Rosetta crashes after Security Update 2006-003

    The other day I installed Security Update 2006-003, and now a number of PowerPC applications crash the machine.
    It's a funny crash, the mouse keeps moving and the capslock key goes on and off, but that's it. Nothing on the screen animates or updates. Windows will not move, dock does not do anything. cannot force quit or command-tab. The only option is to do a hard reset or hard shutdown.
    I found this article:

    I hope it's fixed soon!

    Hello!
    I'm glad I found your post -- a brand new Intel Core Duo 20" iMac is doing the same for me after Security Update 2006-003.
    What I've found on this end so far is that Norton AntiVirus 10 for Macintosh seems to aggravate the problem. I had a system that was running fine (complete with NAV10) before applying the 2006-003 update. At first I thought the problem might be due to user error--maybe NAV wasn't quite ready for Intel Macs, but Symantec says it is after you get version 10.1 from LiveUpdate. (I did.)
    I finally had to erase the hard drive and reinstall the entire operating system from the provided restore discs. After I did that and got the latest software updates, I tried again with NAV. It still caused the same problem...a complete lockup.
    The first time around, only NAV seemed to cause problems. Other PowerPC-native programs running in Rosetta seemed to be OK. This second time around any PowerPC-native app running in Rosetta (after the install of NAV10) would lock the machine up completely, except for the mouse pointer. (I have also noticed that the machine still responds to being pinged over the network, and that Apple Remote Desktop 3 says it is online. So the crash isn't stopping everything from working.)
    So my conclusion is that there is something seriously wrong with Security Update 2006-003 and Rosetta, and it may be made worse by NAV10 for Macintosh. In any case, I'm going to steer clear of this update for now.

  • Trackpad no longer drags after Security Update 2015-003

    I am running Yosemite 10.10.2 on my MacPro 2010. After I installed Security Update 2015-003, I noticed my Apple Trackpad can no longer drag. Here are the symptoms:
    I CAN move the cursor around the screen using the trackpad.
    I CAN click, and appropriate responses occur.
    If I click on a menu in the menu bar, then move (hovering) the cursor with the trackpad down the list of menu choices, they DO NOT highlight. I can click on one, and it WILL BE performed, but a submenu would NOT pop out. I CANNOT drag down the menu and to the side to bring out a submenu using the trackpad.
    I CANNOT move a window or other object by tap-dragging on trackpad (double tap, holding the second tap to turn it into a drag)
    I CANNOT select a phrase or paragraph by highlighting it by tap-dragging on trackpad
    Hover behaviors on web pages DO NOT occur (so links that should highlight, menus on a web page that would normally drop down on their own, do not do so) if cursor is moved by trackpad.
    Tool tips or other hover behaviors in web pages or outside of web browser DO NOT occur if cursor is moved by trackpad.
    All behaviors are NORMAL if I use my Wacom tablet stylus to perform the same cursor move.
    So, if I move the cursor over something using the trackpad, nothing happens. If I then move the cursor over the same thing using the Wacom stylus, highlighting or other hover behavior occurs.
    Yes, I've changed the batteries in my trackpad, and it works fine otherwise. It does NOT skip or exhibit symptoms of a poor connection. Three-finger and four-finger drags to go to Previous Page in Safari, or switch desktops, DO work.
    Only single-finger dragging is gone.
    This issue occurs on my 2010 MacPro running 10.10.2, but does not occur on my 2009 MacPro running 10.10.2 at work.
    Both have the Security Update 2015-003 installed, as well as all other current AppStore updates.
    So Security Update 2015-003 would not seem to be the issue, but that was the thing which changed on my OS immediately prior to the beginning of the undesired behavior.
    There is no setting in the Trackpad control panel that has to do with single-finger dragging. I've also checked the Mouse control panel and the double-click speed is the same between the two computers (the one where Trackpad drag works, the other where Trackpad does not work).

    SOLVED:
    This issue went away by itself after a reboot for a software installation.

  • After Security Update 2010-001: Airport Card Not Detected

    Currently running OS X 10.5.8 on a Mid 2009 MacBook Pro.
    Here's the issue. When I boot up the machine and click the AirPort drop down it tells me that there is no airport card detected. Under system profiler it says the same thing. If I boot to a 10.6 Mac OS Install DVD and open system profiler, the AirPort card is detected. This occurred after a reboot prompted by the Security Update 2010-001.
    So far I have repaired permissions and repaired disk. No fix.
    I reset the PRAM/NVRAM and SMC. No fix.
    I booted to an OS X image on an external drive. No fix.
    I cannot boot to the Apple Hardware Test (D at startup) because my company requires PGP disk encryption. I could decrypt but this would take at least 6 hours (not counting re-encrypting afterwards).
    I tried replacing the extensions. No fix.
    There were no firmware updates applied or any other major OS updates.
    Anyone have anything else I can attempt?

    anyone else see that??
    Yes, Already covered in full here. Strange but no problem.

  • IMac wakes from sleep by itself after security update 2010-001

    Since installing last weeks security update 2010-001, my iMac has suddenly started waking up when it should be asleep. Now I've had Auto Sleep problems with my iMac before, but this problem of finding my iMac running when I left it asleep started immediately after the update. Now, one thing additional I've notice since the update is that I often see the message on the screen "Keyboard Connected" when it always was or should have been and I wonder if this is related to my iMac waking up. Anyone else seen this problem since the update or have any ideas?

    Thanks to you both for suggestions, but I still have the same problem after trying them and as I said in my title this only started after the 2010-001 security update. As a test I put my iMac to sleep at 13:35 and it woke up by itself at 13:46. Here is the console log below, does it help at all in finding the root cause?

  • X11 fails to start after Security Update 2010-002

    I installed Security Update 2010-002 and QuickTime 7.6.6, and now X11 fails with a dylib problem:
    Dyld Error Message:
    Library not loaded: /usr/X11/lib/libpixman-1.0.dylib
    Referenced from: /Applications/Utilities/X11.app/Contents/MacOS/X11.bin
    Reason: Incompatible library version: X11.bin requires version 15.0.0 or later, but libpixman-1.0.dylib provides version 13.0.0
    Is this a known problem? What can I do about it? Do I need to revert to a previous version of X11, or back out the security update?

    I had the same problem and fixed it by downloading the latest from
    http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki/Releases
    Note that you should keep the dmg that you download and need to
    reinstall it after any security updates or OS updates.

  • BootCamp won't boot after  security update 2010-001

    I just installed the security update 2010-001 and my bootcamp partition is not booting anymore is stopping on a black screen with a white line (cursor), just before the splash screen of winxp.
    Anybody else had the same problem?
    Somebody can solve this?
    Thanks

    Sorry probably my question wasn't clear. I'll try to explain myself better. After installing security update 2010-001 the bootcamp doesn't boot anymore. If I try to boot it, it remains on the black screen and there is the flashing underscore. Please help me, I don't know what to do!
    Thanks

  • PPC-iMac: Black screen on restart after Security Update 2006-003

    Did the Security Update 2006-003 this morning. On restart the screen is showing the grey Apple-logo for several seconds. Then it goes black, with the prompt in the upper left corner: "localhost/root:" Vent running in high gear. Entering unix-commands is possible, but no graphic interface coming up. How to fix this? Don't want to reinstall the whole system.
    iMac G5 20" PowerPC iSight   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    I'm having basically the same problem with my PowerBook 1Ghz Aluminum 17". After running the latest security update and latest iLife patches using SU, my system boots to the local Darwin consol login. I can see my HD and all it's files, but I can't get the machine to boot back into GUI mode. Safe mode doesn't work.
    This was a newly refreshed system running 10.4.6 and ONLY iLife installed - nothing funky and no 3rd-party apps other than those pre-installed in 10.4.x.
    I've booted with the 10.4 DVD, repaired permissions (again) and repaired the drive (reported not needed). Zapping the PRAM doesn't help.
    Perhaps I have a lemon because I have had problems with this machine in the past, but only when installing major system updates between 10.3-10.4 with non-apple RAM. I don't think this is the culprit this time as the machine has been functioning fine since the last fresh 10.4 install (with some OWC RAM).
    Any ideas? Anyone have tips for what can be done in the console to repair the system?

  • Rosetta Problems after Security Update 2012-001

    My crack team of sys admins and I have devised a method for resolving some of the issues regarding the Security Update 2012-001 and Rosetta.
    http://www.educate-it.org/content.php?130-Rosetta-Issue-after-Security-Update-20 12-001
    Click this link for an Installer that will revert the files necessary for some Rosetta apps to run after the Security Update. This is a band-aid and is only recommended in emergency situations. Apple is currently working on a fix, but until that happens, we are stuck with reverse-engineering their update. I hope this helps those in distress from this update.

    Backup files off the computer (not TimeMachine) and disconnect.
    If you have TM, or a option key bootable clone use that to erase and restore from.
    If not, c boot off the 10.6 disk, use Disk Utility to >Repair Disk and Permissions,  (do not format or erase!!) and simply re--install 10.6 from the disk. Note: Does not touch your files and most programs, but backup your files regardless.
    Note: If Disk Repair gives a error that is not repaired, then you have to consider erasing the drive (with Zeros) and try reinstalling 10.6 fresh or replacing the drive.
    Reboot and log in, update to 10.6.8, it should not include the security update at this time (second pass it might show) because it was just released and they might need to pull it. (they need to pull it)
    When you reboot, make sure to reinstall any programs that installed kext files into OS X, you'll know, they won't work.
    If you get gray screen, hold the shift key and update your installed software so it's compatible with 10.6.8.

  • Ethernet has stopped working after installing "Security Update 2010-003"

    I installed the update recently and have been unable to connect to the internet. The network still gives me an ip, but the internet and server button remain "orange". The wifi still works.
    Has this happened with anyone else? I am curious as to how I can either uninstall the update or make the ethernet work again..
    Much thanks for any recommendations you may have.

    Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.
    I'm not having that problem after installing the security update.
    If you open the Network panel of System Preferences and select the Ethernet connection item, is it set to "Configure" "Using DHCP"? Do you see reasonable values for "IP Address", "Subnet Mask", "Router", and DNS Server"?

  • IMac (Early 2009) always wakes from sleep after Security Update 2010-001

    I posted this already in the Snow Leopard section, but wasn't able to get a resolution to the problem:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2309613&tstart=0
    I tried all the suggested things, but my iMac still always wakes from sleep and this never happened before the 2010-001 security update. I was asked to paste the console log entry from when this happens, so here it is:
    28/01/2010 08:57:47 kernel Wake reason = OHC2
    28/01/2010 08:57:47 kernel System Wake
    28/01/2010 08:57:47 kernel Previous Sleep Cause: 5
    28/01/2010 08:57:47 kernel USB (OHCI):Port 1 on bus 0x6 has remote wakeup from some device
    I'm wondering if others have seen this and if so know of a solution. At the moment I'm stuck with having to shutdown my iMac every time I leave it. Thanks.

    Here is a solution that should work:
    1. Turn off all Bluetooth devices connected to your computer.
    2. Make sure Bluetooth icon in the Menu Bar is black (BT is On) and BT is not connected to anything
    3. Plug in a USB mouse
    4. Go to System Preferences>Bluetooth>Advanced
    5. The option to "Allow Bluetooth devices to wake this computer" should now be uncheckable>Uncheck it and click OK
    6. Turn on your Bluetooth devices and let them connect to your Mac
    7. Try and put your Mac to sleep and then wake with the power button
    8. Check if the "Allow Bluetooth devices to wake this computer" option is still unchecked (it should be)
    9. Try and restart your Mac and check again if the "Allow Bluetooth devices to wake this computer" option is still unchecked (I had mixed results with this test, depending on the type of the Mac being tested)
    Anyhow, this way you should be able to uncheck the option that causes the issue and it should not get checked again by itself unless you restart your computer and maybe even after that. If it does get checked again after reboot, just get used to putting your Mac only to sleep until a fix from Apple is available or repeat the above process after every reboot if necessary.
    Hope this helps.

  • PHP/MySQL issue after security update 2010-005

    Hello,
    I run Apache/PHP/MySQL on my MBP for testing Web sites.
    After the 2010-005 security update I can't connect to my databases anymore.
    I don't know how to fix this, I even don't know where to start looking.
    Ideas, anyone?

    etresoft, thanks for sharing this ... I decided to go with the TriangleJuice suggestion instead for two reasons ... first is that I wasn't sure where to find this launchd file.
    There is nothing wrong with TriangleJuice's suggestion. My only issue with creating a php.ini file is that now I have to worry about all those other settings in the ini file. If something else in PHP breaks, I have to figure out if I am the one who broke it.
    Apple ships MySQL with MacOS X Server. They probably adjusted the PHP settings to match how they have MySQL setup in MacOS X Server.
    For MySQL's, no, Sun's - drat! no, Oracle's part, they still haven't acknowledged the fact that Apple has shipped MacOS X 10.4. MySQL still ships with a Startup Item. If you don't know where the launchd file is, it is because you don't have one. You probably have a MySQL entry in /Library/StartupItems or maybe /System/Library/StartupItems. Startup Items were deprecated in 10.4. Oracle should be creating a file named com.mysql.mysqld.plist in /Library/LaunchDaemons.
    Here is what mine looks like now:

    I also don't have a /var/mysql directory and wasn't sure whether I should just create one or if this meant my configuration was different. If you feel like explaining any of this, I'd be curious to know.
    You have to create one. Such a directory probably already exists on MacOS X Server. Just make sure it is owned by mysql.
    sudo mkdir /var/mysql
    sudo chown _mysql:staff /var/mysql
    sudo chmod 0755 /var/mysql
    [jdaniel@Pele:516] /var $ ls -al /private/var | grep mysql
    drwxr-xr-x 3 _mysql staff 102 Aug 26 20:03 mysql
    Of course, /var is a symbolic link to /private/var. Long story there.

  • System problems after Security Update 2007-007 install

    Hello all,
    I am having problems with my computer after installing the 2007-007 security update. Specifically, the keyboard and mouse become non-functional at random intervals. The system has not frozen up, though, as items on the screen continue to update. Each time this has happened, I have had to ssh into the machine from another one and reboot. I am on a dual G4 Powermac, 867 MHz with 2 GB of RAM running OS X 10.4.10. Does anyone have any suggestions on what could be causing this?

    Hard to say. Have a bootable backup of your installation before the update? Did you repair permissions and repair the disk before installing? How soon after rebooting does the problem come back? Have you checked the console and system logs?
