Prohibitory sign after update 10.9.4 from 10.8.5

First I would like to say thank you ahead of time for taking the time out of your day to read this and try to help me.
I really appreciate it.
I have 2012 13" MacBook Pro Intel i5 2.5 4GB 1TB
Was running 10.8.5 flawlessly. I thought update to Mavericks because the update notification was annoying me.
Update completed successfully. Upon reboot i get the  Apple logo then few seconds later the Prohibitory sign.
I tried booting to the recovery HD and doing a repair on the Macintosh HD with no avail.This is what it says.
The Macintosh HD is grey and when I click on Verify Disk this is what it says...
Verifing volume "Macintosh HD"
Checking file system
Invalid content in Journal
Checking Journaled HFS Plus volume
Invalid B-tree node size
The volume could not be verified completely
Error: This disk needs to be repaired. Click Repair Disk.
I click repair disk then i get this:
Verifing volume "Macintosh HD"
Checking file system
Invalid content in Journal
Checking Journaled HFS Plus volume
Invalid B-tree node size
The volume could not be verified completely
Invalid content in Journal
Volume repair complete
Updating boot support partitions for the volume as required
Error:Disk Utility can't repair this disk...disk, and restore your backed-up files.
I also tried to reinstall the OS but the Macintosh HD does not come up when I need to choose the HD to install on. Only the recovery partition comes up.
I tried to pull out the drive and plug it into another mac and recover the data but the drive doesn't mount. I also tried doing to disk utility on that computer and I get the same message as above.
I just want to access the data, and I will do a fresh install.
Any ideas?
All help is appreciated.
Thanks

Let me add that Mac A is the machine I am physically logged in on, and I did the check sshing from B to A in a Remote Desktop session, so the situation is not entirely symmetrical.

    First use JPanel not Panel.
    Panel panels[]=new Panel[4];becomes
    JPanel panels[]=new JPanel[4];Then refactor your code so that you use arrays correctly:
    panels=new Panel();
    panels.setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT));becomes
    panels=new JPanel();
    panels[i].setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT));
    I did the above changes to your code and it worked fine.

    Try re-adding your printer in System Preferences/Print & Fax. Not sure what type of printer you have, but if it was old and relying on an Appletalk connection, Snow Leopard dropped that support.

  • Prohibitory sign after repairing privileges from CD

    Snow leopard was working. I installed the upgrade on an imac 20 inches.
    I started from the CD to verify disk and repair privileges.
    When I repaired privileges, one file was bad, i think something related to "core"
    I restarted and.... have a prohibitory sign! Imposible to enter the system.
    I succeed in entering again my system reinstalling the upgrade of snow leopard
    How could it be? What's wrong with my system? Do I have to format the disk and reinstall everything from zero? I'm scared this problm could happen again...

    You removed everything from your hardware profile sig that, erroneous I'm sure, said you had a G5, which can't run 10.6.
    from the CD to verify disk and repair privileges.
    The SL DVD 'ought' to be okay to REPAIR the hard drive, and repair permissions (though ideal is to repair from a 2nd hard drive, such as the one you made with CCC).
    Leopard definitely saw changes and doing any type of repair work should be done from the SAME OS version as you are running and not from older versions such as on DVD.
    The article on kernel panics recommends some steps, such as clearing NVRAM for when you get a prohibitory sign. And to look at and disconnect everything possible as well - USB and FW devices/cables have been known to cause panics.
    Why not repair permissions while booted? won't Disk Utility run, even in SAFE MODE when booted from your clean fresh install? though really shouldn't need to.
    As for power failure, I would never run a computer without a UPS (uninterruptable power supply) ....

  • Prohibitory Sign After Login - Deleted Ubuntu Partitions

    I booted into recovery to delete my Ubuntu partitions. After doing that I restarted then went back to go login to OS X but when I login to my account it shows the prohibitory sign and the loading symbol. I tried booting back into recovery to repair the disk, but it wouldn't let me mount the drive to do anything. I never touched my Mac OS X partition so my files should all be there. I booted into Ubuntu through a USB to see if I could repair the disk but it says it's "unknown" and it's not showing it as the primary anymore. Also when I deleted the Ubuntu partitions, "Recovery HD" was made. How can I get back into Mac OS X?

    My guess is that you somehow managed to hose the GPT partition scheme info on the drive. Someone else may have a better suggestion but I think you should be able to use Internet Recovery (if you have a broadband Internet connection) to reformat the drive & then reinstall OS X to recover from this. Of course, reformatting the drive will erase everything on it, so I hope you have good backups!
    Thanks for the suggestion! I created a new partition with the unallocated space, then installed OS X on it then used disk recovery programs to see if I could recover anything and I couldn't. So now I'm at : How do I repartition my new main volume?

    really helpful. Cannot understand why Microsoft were pushing me to update from poorly performing windows 8 to complete nuisance windows 8.1. My hardly earned money were spent on a product that causes me massive headache. 
    Unfortunately Microsoft does not allow me to post the link to skydrive where I keep the dmp fo review. Another great gift from them.

    Hi,
    After updating the Blackberry Desktop Software from v5.0.0 to v5.0.1. Using the automatic updating tool, my computer starts loosing connection to the network every 1 hour. I'm using Windows XP.
    My company's technical assistance can only resolve the the problem by reinstalling the PC, but when I reinstall the software it happens again.
    Can anyone help me?

    Doing some more troubleshooting after my post above as I saw a couple of entries referencing Stop Light keep popping up in the log of the Console. I removed Stoplight and Cocoa Gesture (for good meausre) and RDC 2.0.1 started working. I think it is Stop Light which causes RDC stop working, but I don't have to time right now to put Cocoa Gesture back to confirm that. I might if I have the time or post here if you have Stop Light installed as well and removing it resolved the RDC issue for you.

  • After Update Cisco Prime Infrastructure from 1.3 to 2.0 imported floor plans has black background

    Hello everybody,
    we have updated cisco prime infrastructure from 1.3 to 2.0. When we now import a floor plan (autocad-file, dwg-format), the background from finally image, that is show in prime, is black. Previous imported floor planes has a white background. We also tried to import a previous imported floor plan again, the background is now black. Is there a possibilty to change the background to white? Thanks

    Hi,
    Look no further, these issues are related to know bugs. It seems that autocad files have multiple issues with PI 2.0, Only feasible way is to convert them to JPGs and import them. Lets hope these will get fixed to the level they where at PI 1.3.
    CSCuj63017, PI 2.0 dwg(AutoCAD file) import reports Tailormade is for Demo use only
    Symptom:
    When dwg files are imported to Prime Infrastructure, they report
    "For Demonstration Purposes only
    Tailor made software"
    Conditions:
    Prime Infrastructure - 2.0.0.0.294
    Use of dwg (Auto cad) files
    Workaround:
    None at this time
    Further Problem Description:
    CSCuj94500, Loading DWG floor maps on PI 2.0 appears in black background
    Symptom:
    On PI 2.0 when we try to import autoCAD .dwg file to map, the map appears in black background.
    Conditions:
    On PI 2.0 when we try to import autoCAD .dwg file to map
    Workaround:
    use 3rd party tool like Draftsight or AutoCAD Trueview to change the file to .jpg and import again to PI, after that the map appear in white background in PI 2.0.
    Further Problem Description:
    However, the same .dwg file when we imported it to PI 1.3 appear in map with white background.

  • Extremely slow Mac after updating to Snow Leopard from Leopard

    Hi, I just updated to Snow Leopard from Leopard, and now everything is extremely slow, things keep crashing, freezing etc. What did I do wrong? How do I fix it?

    Do this:
    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 Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
