Skype 7.0 FREEZES everytime during startup!

This is getting frustrating!
I even reformatted my computer on this issue.
My Skype 7,0 freezes whenever it starts ups ! Basically, once it freezes i can't do anything except restarting the computer.
Second, I had kaspersky Total security installed. Not sure if it conflicts . Previously had the older Kaspersky Pure, and Skype freezes too. The reason I'm highlighting this is because when I go into safe mode when av softwares are off, Skype loaded fine. No freeze and crash . I'd been a loyal skype + kaspersky fan for years  and I encounter these recently! 
Please advise! 
Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Attached is my dxdiag.
I don't think kaspersky is the problem . Disabled it but problem persists. Freezes at startup.
However, skype works perfectly in Safe Mode. Thanks
Please help.

  • MacBook Pro (c.2008) freezes repeatedly during startup.

    What do I do when my MacBook Pro (c.2008) freezes?  I shut it down, then power it up.  Each time it freezes again, with the grey Apple on the screen and the little gear gizmo below it.

    Hello marvelmuriel,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • I restored Mac OS 8.6 on iMac G3 Bondi blue and it freezes everytime on startup what fixes can help?

    I tried messing with extensions but that doesn't seem to be causing the problem I swap the hard drive out with another one and it still freezes up, would it be the dead PRAM battery I heard that causes the computer to freeze on startup screen I also upgraded to mac os 9.2.1 and it does the same thing and I also messed with the extensions, is there any other causes I need to check?

    You have a retail version of Panther.  It froze up during the installation.
    I'm not sure of cause.  I assume it is hardware related.  Try a new keyboard & mouse.  Try booting without keybard & mouse.
    How much memory to you have? OS X was finickic about the memory. Lots of bad memory found.
    See if you can get the machine to run awhile from the cd.
    Run disk utility on the hd.  See if machine runs.
    Run terminal commands from cd.
    The idea is to sort out what  works hardware wise.

  • IMAC freezing, hang during startup, loud noise coming out from the speaker

    I am using the iMAC i3 Intel based which i bought it just a month ago
    Last week it hang, freeze just like that without me launch any application just yet
    I hold the ON button for a restart, and it freeze during the startup
    One more thing, sometimes when it freeze, there's a noise coming out from the speaker ( just like there is no signal from the TV )
    Already sent it to the Apple Service Center but they tell me it is free from any error, but by the time i bring it back home, not even 12 hours, it freeze again just like that with loud noises coming out from the speaker.
    Btw did i mention, sometimes there's also a screen distortion
    Please somebody help me

    I've experienced similar symptoms to the original poster's description. I have an iMac 27" 2010 model. This may be related to the following:
    I've looked on numerous forums regarding the freezing problem I was having. This problem would arise on a wide range of systems.
    Symptoms included but were not all always present - usually when I am loading the system with games/heavy load processes:
    - Full system freeze, screen still on.
    - Loud cracking noise coming from speakers (relative to what volume was at when the freeze happened).
    - Computer asleep but I cannot wake up unless hard reset with power button.
    - My screen backlight was also damaged (permanently dimmed) near the left side, and progressively got worse over time. This was fixed (replaced LCD 27" display $600+ and covered by my creditcard extended warranty)
    Basically, what I've come to realize which has not been well documented as far as I could find relating to this problem - is that the system is overheating and causing these freezing errors (and LCD damage in my case). Prologned occurances could result in different system part failures.
    How do you fix the overheating problem? Give this a try, it's worked so far for me and I've actually been able to continue video/photo editing without having this annoying freeze.
    Search for and download 'iStat Pro' (widget addon that lets you monitor your system temperatures... compare it before and after the fix)
    Search for and download 'SMCFanControl (a great little app that allows you to change your system fan speeds) - I did not know this was possible, and have never heard the fans go this high when it was being run automatically by the system. The fan's are obviously louder when set to max, but is well worth the system cooling results.

  • Arch hangs/freezes completely during startup/systemd

    I just installed Arch onto my computer a few days ago. It's dual booting with win10 technical preview using grub as the bootloader. It's legacy BIOS and MBR partitioning. The only thing I did apart from exactly following the instructions in the beginners guide was I didn't wipe the disk since I wanted to keep Windows, I only made one partition (root), and no home partition, I created and enabled a 10GB swap partition, and I formatted my root partition with btrfs instead of ext4. I can boot into Windows just fine by selecting the Windows loader from GRUB, but when I try to boot Arch it always freezes at some point during the startup, before I can see the login prompt, while it's still saying things like "[ ok ] reached target something". What I mean by "freeze" is that nothing more appears on the screen, and the cursor stops flashing. I can't do anything at all. The weird thing is, it doesn't always freeze at one specific place. Sometimes it stops after saying "Activating swap", sometimes it gets past there and freezes after saying "[ ok ] Reached target Sound Card". I've tried booting it probably nearly 10 times now, it never manages to make it all the way to the login screen. I can boot from the live usb fine, and I didn't get any strange errors during installation. I've installed arch linux before on a different machine, and it worked right off the bat.
    Can anyone give me any advice as to what I should try to do to fix this or what I should do to narrow down the possible causes and troubleshoot further?
    Thank you in advance!

    I've heard a little about some major problems with btrfs and recent kernels.  I don't have links for this at my fingertips, nor can I elaborate - I've never used nor know anyting about btrfs, so I've not really payed close attention to these issues, but I've seen them around the forums.  But for these same reasons, take this with a very large grain of salt: I could be completely wrong.  But it should be easy to test if you booted into the live medium, installed an LTS kernel, and tried booting that.

  • Open in wrong drive and/or getting stuck during startup

    Please help!
    My Mac OS X (10.4.11) has two drives: one for normal use and one for backup. For some reason my Mac keeps opening up in the backup drive. I go to System Preferences and click on Startup disk, and tell it to restart in the main drive, and it still opens up in my backup. It will eventually let me over after a dozen tries (give or take a few).
    Once in a while it will freeze up during startup, get stuck during loading, or the fan will go into overdrive and I get nothing but a gray screen.

    Whew! Sounds like a potential combination of needing to repair the drive(s) and zapping PRAM. What exact model of computer (OSX is the operating system, not the computer model)?
    Boot from the installer disk, select language if applicable, choose utilities, run Disk Utility and verify (and repair if necessary) the drive. You can verify a drive from DU on your main drive while booted but I have found this can result in incorrect reporting of errors. To repair your drive you have to run it from a drive other than the boot drive anyway.
    Next, boot from your drive in [Safe Mode|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107393] and repair permissions. You can repair permissions while booted from the installer disc but this uses the permissions configuration on the installer disc which may be out of date if you have run any updates on your computer. Booting your computer to Safe Mode restricts the number of things running on your computer while permissions are being run and does a bit of spring cleaning at the same time.

    From BDaqua (couldn't have said it better):
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer (Edit: Do not use this disc if it is not the same general version as what you have currently on your computer, e.g. use a Tiger disc for a Tiger drive, not a Panther disc), then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
    5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk.
    Then Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes."
    Once all is clear, you might need to reset PRAM.

  • My MacBook keeps freezing and crashing during startup and use, what's wrong?

    My MacBook functioned perfectly for YEARS, and suddenly it started freezing during startup. One of four things happens: it starts up no problem, it freezes at the apple logo with the load wheel spinning, it freezes at a 'no' symbol (a circle with a line through it) with the load wheel spinning, or it freezes at a logo which is a folder with a question mark in it. It occasionally goes through and gets to the homepage, where I can use the computer for a certain amount of time before it freezes again. I never get to use it for more than 30 or 45 minutes at a time.
    Yes, I have updated all my software, and I haven't dropped it or downloaded anything that could cause this issue. What could be going wrong? :(

    There are corrupted system files involved, so my suggestion is to reinstall OS X.
    If you are using Snow Leopard:
    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 the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.
    If you are using Leopard or Tiger:
    How to Perform an Archive and Install
    An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
    1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X 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 Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger, Leopard or Snow Leopard.) 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. Now restart normally.
    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. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
    3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
    4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
    5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
    6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

  • Freeze during startup

    During startup, the system freezes (no cursor, no keys).
    It boots as far as the "Log On to Windows" screen. The cursor still moves, and then it stops after perhaps 30 seconds
    (keys non-functional too),
    Tried the rescue and recovery but when it gets to Step 1 with choices including "Restore my gard drive to the original factory state" everything freezes again.
    Prior to this problem the system would hang during shutdown.
    How do I get past this point?
    (T43 with XP sp3)

    Welcome to the forum!
    Sounds like a failing SouthBridge chip to me.
    Try removing the hard drive and booting from a "live" Linux CD.
    If you experience the same type of freezing there, you're likely looking at a motherboard swap.
    Good luck.

  • Freeze during startup after SW update from 10.4 - 10.4.8

    After updating to 10.4.8, my machine would freeze during startup (at the gray screen with the apple and spinner) and give me the "Please restart your computer" message in a few languages.
    I thought it might be a RAM issue, so I removed all third party RAM - same problem.
    I replaced all of the RAM with RAM from another G5 that I know worked - same problem
    I moved the HD from my G5 to another G5 that was working - same problem (I believe that eliminates the motherboard and any other components from being the problem).
    I thought that the HD might be bad, so I replaced it with a brand new SATA drive, installed 10.4 and it worked perfectly, ran all of the SW updates (including the combined 10.4.8 update) and I get the same freezing again when I reboot.
    Any suggestions are appriciated!

    Hi Joe,
    Welcome to the only place where you can get friendly advice.
    Ok have you tried starting up from the installer / restore CD that came with the mac and run disk utility??
    Try hardware test doing the extended test in a loop to try and find the base of the Kernel panic (thats what the "you need to restart your computer" image indicates)
    For info and guidance on Kernel panics see:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106227
    and trouble shooting info:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25392
    for extensive advice on solving the kernel panics see:
    http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html
    Worst case senario it could be the G5 processors, make sure you have applecare; just in case it gets expensive!!

  • IBook G4 Freezes at Blue Screen During Startup.

    iBook G4 933 MHz
    Mac OS X 10.4. Tiger
    640MB RAM
    40GB internal ATA hard drive
    Computer boots but then quickly locks up.
    If I immediately restart, then the iBook hangs at the blue screen before the Mac OS X progress screen appears.
    If I remove the battery and unplug the power cord then allow the computer to sit for at least 30 minutes, able to fully boot, but then the machine quickly freezes up.
    I assume the problem is heat related?
    I have so far:
    - Totally disassembled/reassembled
    - Reset PRAM
    - Reset NVRAM
    - Reset PMU
    - Unable to do target disk mode
    - iBook freezes same way when booting to Mac OS X install DVD
    Able to boot to shell command line mode no problem.
    FSCK reports no issues with the HDD.
    Sometimes during startup a fan turns on briefly, but not every attempt to boot.
    Yes-- I know about the 'solder' issues with iBook G4 logic boards, but I do not think the above is related. The VGA works fine.
    Thanks for any assistance that can be rendered.

    After a month, I have been notified by Superior Reball that the logic board has been repaired. I promptly made payment of $35 and the board was shipped back to me on June 17 via USPS Priority Mail Delivery Confirmation. I have received the tracking number and anticipate receiving the package by June 20.
    In my situation, well worth the wait for only $35.
    Even though I chose to totally disassemble the iBook, Superior will do the disassemble/reassemble for $75.
    I would not have done it by shipping the entire iBook, though. With the higher shipping cost, insurance, having to send out the hard drive with no back up, the higher repair cost, etc.-- in the end a prohibitive expense. I could probably buy a used iBook G4 for no more than $200, to put things in perspective.
    In summary, Superior Reball had a great price, good enough communication (they answer the phone, but not e-mail) and it looks like fast return shipping. It took a lot longer than the ad states, so I am applying the old 'price, speed, quality-- choose any two' rule here.

  • Hello, My Imac is freezing during startup.

    It chimes and bigins loading. The spinning circle freezes after a few moments. It is able to boot in safe mode. Using command v during startup this is the last line displayed "GFX8: family specific matching fails". Also, this Imac has the infamous overheating graphics card problem.

    Have you attempted Disk Repair in Utilities? Are you still using 10.5.8 as your profile suggests?
    As old as your iMac is, have you cleaned out the dust? Dust buildup can lead to over heating issues. Remove any and all things plugged into it including the power cord, Remove the RAM access grille. Vacuum all openings starting with the RAM access area (air intake). Vacuum all ports and plugs, DVD slot and the opening across the top of the rear of the body. Blow compressed air through all your openings and vacuum again to remove any dust you loosend. Reinstall the RAM grille. Plug in the keyboard and mouse if not blue tooth. Insert power cord...
    You are now in a perfect position to do a
    SMC RESET
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
    Wait 15 seconds.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
    It is the 5 second timing that initiates the reset.

  • Computer freezes during startup

    My Mac book pro. Freezes during startup.  Spinning wheel goes for about 15 seconds, then just stops.  Any ideas?

    Ok, I tried that and it didn't help, but thanks for the suggestion anyway because device drivers are always a pain in this.
    Then I started looking for log file changes because I suspected that something (related) ought to be logged about this nagging bug. The witch hunt directed me towards the google updater agent -- whatever -- that got stuck on bringing chrome to the latest level.
    I read all sort of incompatibilities between google chrome and macbooks, this could be another one. I downloaded the latest version of chrome manually, overwrote the existing implementation of chrome and the freeze-up seemed to vanish.
    Not so nice this all.

  • Imac freezes during startup stops @ blue screen & have tried everything

    My imac freezes during startup, it gets to blue screen and just sits. I have tried to boot from the Leopard 10.5 install disk, and just sits, can't get to log in screen. Have run the disk utility and it says disk appears to be ok, Won't startup up in safe boot, blue screen just sit. Have tried 'fsck' fix, just sits at blue screen. Have reset PRAM, I don't know want else to try. Disk utility & "fsck" says 'disk appears to be ok'. When exiting fsck, it will start the process then stops. Does anyone have any suggestions, I have not tried to reinstall 10.5 yet.
    Thanks in advance
    Paula

    After reading resolutions TS1541 & other threads, I decided to try to archive & reinstall 10.5 from install disc. Well that made things worse, sometime during reinstall, system locked up, I looked at the log during install & it had been locked up about 3 hours and now I have nothing. no systems files, using Target( firewire cable) disc with my macbook, I can see I have previous system folder & a folder that say system. but Install disc does not see OS.
    Do I need to take it to an apple store for repair or what. It's only 3 years old.
    please help

  • Frequent system freezing. Restart computer message, followed by beeps during startup

    For the past few weeks I've been having repeated crashes on my MBpro 4.1, with OSX 10.6.8, fully updated. The system randomly freezes and I have to force a restart. Sometimes the system does not restart but gives a series of beeps remaing on black screen.  If I let it rest a while it then starts properly.
    I did a complete reformat and fresh install with only the basic software I need but the problem has not been resolved.
    I have already tried changing the memory modules, without solving the problem.
    Any kind advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

    Beeps during startup usually indicate bad or failing memory or slots which will lead to panics.
    Do you continue to have problems if you boot into Safe Mode?

  • Freeze during startup if magic trackpad not available

    Down in SF last week and bought a magic trackpad and installed it. worked fine.
    Got home and turned on my MBP; it froze during startup with only the finder window open, no dock, and not much else. mouse pointer couldn't click on things, etc. I tried restarting and restarting into my test (bare bones) account. No luck.
    Then I wondered if the problem was that my new magic trackpad was there and turned on. That was the problem. As soon as I got the trackpad and turned it on, my system completed normal startup.
    Anyone else have this experience. This seems like a bug.

    Today I tried to replicate my problem and couldn't. Either by turning off the trackpad before I shut down or else while my computer was off.
    So apparently my incident was an isolated one.
