Start-up failed after software update

Hi,
I have N73. I decided to update the software today. I downloaded the new Nokia Software Updater, connected the phone by USB and process has started. Everything went fine, phone has been updated successfully. But when I tried to switch it on the message appeared on the screen - Phone start-up failed. Contact the retailer. I used v1.3.95 en Software Updater. I do not remember what software version did I have, it began from 3..... and the new software was 4........ Last time I updated the software everything was fine. I think this is the problem with the new software.
Could you advice please?
Thank you

Thanks. I returned phone to Nokia repair centre and it should be repaired in 28 days.
My goodness, 28 days is forever. Do they loan you a replacement phone or something?
I don't get a replacement phone here. I'm already unhappy if it takes 2 days to repair.

  • Restart Fails after Software Update

    For the past few weeks (I cannot tie down when this started), after carrying out any download that requires a restart through Software Update when I click on the Restart Button the menu bar disappears but the machine will not restart. If I leave it for a minute I get the message that restart has timed out as software update failed to quit. From here on in I cannot do a shutdown or restart from the Apple Menu, I have to do a hard shutdown by powering off. When I power back on the restart happens normally but no software is installed. After I logon I can then select restart from the Apple Menu and I then get the dialog box that gives me the option to install updates and restart or just restart. Selecting Install Updates and restart then works as normal. After restarting again logoff, shutdown and restart options from the Apple menu all work as normal, until I do a software update that requires a restart..... Anyone any ideas on how to fix this? It only happens on my MacBook Pro (migrated originally from Tiger), not on my relatively new iMac which was Leopard from new.

    Exactly the same issue too on a iMac G5 upgraded from 10.4, started few weeks ago, very annoying. Makes the usually painless updates a lot more painful.

  • MBA 13" mid 2011 start up issue after software update

    I found that my MBA 13" mid 2011 performs not normal start up. When I'm powering it on after shutdown(or reboot) it start booting with clockwise gear screen but holds on this step for a minute or so and performes power off/power on. After this auto power on it boots normal. So each time after shutdown or reboot it begin to start, reboot, normal start - a kind of second time booting. I performed CMD+R restoration and reinstalled my Lion. All worked fine afterwards unless I performed software update (iTunes update + Thunderbold update + Security update 2011-005). It made second time booting again.

    They will fix the software for you. Your alternative is to reinstll Lion yourself. If that's your wish, then:
    OS X Lion- About Lion Recovery
    Reinstalling Lion Without the Installer
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alterhatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. 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 main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.
    If there is no Recovery HD on your system, then refer back to the above-linked document.

  • AFP authentication fails after software updates

    Hi,
    I'm running a 10.4.7 server configured as an Open Directory Master. It is the only server and is mainly used for AFP and SMB file sharing. (No client shell logins).
    For some time now (since 10.4.3) I'm finding that after I apply a Software Update* our AFP users can no longer log in to AppleShare. They can mount the same volumes via SMB, but cannot authenticate via AFP until I have them manually reset their password (even to the old value) in Workgroup Manager.
    The ApplePasswordServer.Server.log file shows:
    DIGEST-MD5 authentication failed, SASL error -13 (password incorrect)
    (It's definitely not a case of mis-typed passwords, as these errors are generated by saved keychain logins...and the same keychain logins work again after the old password has been re-entered again in Workgroup Manager).
    Has anybody seen any problems like this before and have any ideas how to fix it?
    * I haven't been able to narrow down specifically which types of Software Updates yet.
      Mac OS X (10.4.7)  
      Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    It is one user per sharepoint for personal directories on the server. Many of the users do have access to various other sharepoints however for common projects, etc.
    (None of the share points are in the sub-directories of any other sharepoints either. ie. No sharepoint has an ancestor directory that is also a sharepoint.)
    When the problem occurs, all AFP users lose access to all AFP sharepoints however.
    The permissions on the sharepoints themselves are ok as:
    - users can access the same sharepoint with SMB
    - when the user re-enters their password, AFP access is restored, without needing to change the permissions whatsoever.
    I hope that is a bit clearer! Appreciate your time in responding.

  • Is anybody's finder bar keep reloading by itself? Started to happen after software update on Lion OSX

    After I did a software update on Lion, the finder taskbar has been reloading itself on its own. The icons disappear and load back up again!! HELPPPP!

    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.

  • Reboot fails after software update - what now?

    I've just performed a regular software update. I think it included the following 4 items:
    - iPhoto 08 (enhanced printing etc.)
    - Raw module update
    - 10.5.5 update
    - ??? don't remember this one
    Three of the updates required a reboot so I opted to reboot immediately after installation.
    Unfortunately I do not get beyond the white screen. I don't even get to the apple logo screen? Is there any way to restore without doing a reinstallation of the OS?
    This is the first time I'm running into serious issues like this
    Any help appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Olaf

    Yes, I stopped doing multiple updates, esp. those requiring a reboot. I do the one-at-a-time now, and for the major updates, I do them manually from the Apple download page.
    You have what I call a "stuck" update and what usually clears it is a safe boot.
    Boot into the safe mode by holding down the shift key during boot. At the login screen just click restart and see if the system boots normally (it usually does) and see if all the DLs installed.
    Post back either way. We never give up

  • Task Sequence Fails after Software Updates Install Step - Lenovo X240

    Hi All.
    I'm having a strange issue trying to run an OSD on Lenovo X240 machines. 
    After the Software Update step, it reboots as expected, then exits the task sequence and sends you to the windows logon screen.
    Review the SMSTS.log, it appears the reason is:
    Found network adapter "Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260" with IP Address 0.0.0.0.
    TSMBootstrap 24/07/2014 15:07:10
    1824 (0x0720)
    Found network adapter "Intel(R) Ethernet Connection I218-LM" with IP Address 0.0.0.0.
    TSMBootstrap 24/07/2014 15:07:10
    1824 (0x0720)
    Full log file:
    SMSTS.log
    If I remove the Software Updates step, the task sequence completes without any problems.
    Don't think it is a driver error, as above, every other step completes without issue. Other models use the same task sequence (including software updates step) without any problems.
    Any ideas? I'm completely stuck.
    Thanks!

    Looks like I am deploying KB2965788 which requires two restarts.
    Thanks all for your help.
    P.S. - I periodically update the base image with a build & capture to include the latest updates, so in the times between this I deploy the software updates as part of the task sequence.
    I've found the offline servicing to be very flaky, have attempted to use it many times and found it either a) doesn't apply the updates to the image b) corrupts the image.

  • E90 restore of backup fails after software update

    after upgrading to the latest firmware yesterday I had to discover that restoring the backup does not work.
    there are applications missing, and what's worse - the whole calender data has not been restored.
    any hints how I can get to that data? i've alredy tried to find a way to decompose the backup file (any hints on that - a php program I found doesn't properly work)
    this is really flawed - I suspect it may have to do with the fact I had self-signed stuff on the device?
    the lonelycatgames software was lost too, have they forgotten to include a correct backup_registration.xml file ??
    your disappointed - martin

    I recieved my registration key for Noki and I was able to extract all of my 891 calendar entries from the .nbu backup file to .txt, .xls, and .vcs formats (thank god).
    The Excel format is pretty useful since atleast I can easily view all of my upcoming entries.
    But I'd still want to be able to somehow import these entries back to my phone all at once.
    Anyway even for people without this problem I'd recommend Noki for anyone who has lots of important notes in his phones Memo or lots of important calendar entries and who would like to get readable backups of these on their PC.
    You could even make your own web interface for viewing your notes or calendar entries if you exported the data from a nokia backup to xls. You could use the excel file with PHP or you could import the excel file in an SQL database with phpMyAdmin (or convert it to CSV first with Excel or OpenOffice Calc and then import to SQL).

  • Calendar restore to bb fails after software update

    I did the current update on my bb and then during the restore process, the calendar will not reinstall.  I get a message that 'database was not restored'   I'm using BB Desktop Manager for Mac to sync my BB.
    Any suggestions how to fix this?

    Sorry to hear this however what you can do if you have media files backed up that you need is to locate the .dbk backup file and change the extension to .zip or .rar and then extract the contents

  • Iphone 4 locked after failed latest software update

    iphone 4 locked up after a failed latest software update
    now it is not showing up or recognized by itunes.
    Any suggestions. or is it the crap apple software?
    Thanks - robert

    As for the problem and help, I just stopped by AT&T and they took care of it.
    As for my disparaging remarks, it is the way I feel and felt like voicing it at the moment.  As I recall this is still a free country (Obama thankfully has not been able to screw everything up) and I personally have never liked apple products or software. That’s my personal opinion, it is crap. This particular phone is supplied by corporate and I will get a different phone as soon as request is approved. MS software has always been much better than apple products in my experience and at a much better price.

  • Problem restarting after software update

    Computer is fine, drive 40% full, no speed problems...
    But it just won't restart after software update runs, nor will it restart or shut down from finder.
    Problem solving so far: Safe boot, reset pram, ran disk utility, ran disk repair using install disk, ran fsck -y, ran disk warrior.
    Is annoying. ANy ideas anyone? If not, what is the procedure for updating using sudate and terminal, as when I use software update, a force shut down will not install.
    ANy ideas folks?

    Some general advice on updating:
    It is worth noting that it is an extreme rarity for updates to cause upsets to your system, as they have all been extensively beta-tested, but they may well reveal pre-existing ones, particularly those of which you may have been unaware. If you are actually aware of any glitches, make sure they are fixed before proceeding further.
    So before you do anything else:
    If you can, make a full backup first to an external hard disk. Ideally you should always have a bootable clone of your system that enables you to revert to the previous pre-update state.
    Turn off sleep mode for both screen and hard disk.
    Disconnect all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
    1. Repair Permissions (in Disk Utility)
    2. Verify the state of your hard disk using Disk Utility. If any faults are reported, restart from your install disk (holding down the C key), go to Disk Utility, and repair your startup disk. Restart again to get back to your startup disk.
    At least you can now be reasonably certain that your system does not contain any obvious faults that might cause an update/upgrade to fail.
    3. Download the correct version of the COMBO update from the Apple download site.
    The Combo updater of Leopard 10.5.8 can be found here:
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_8_ComboUpdate
    If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall.
    Full details about the 10.5.8 update here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3606
    More information on using Software Updater here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24901?viewlocale=en_US
    Using the Combo updater ensures that all system files changed since the original 10.5.0 are included, and any that may have been missed out or subsequently damaged will be repaired. The Delta updater, although a temptingly smaller download, only takes you from the previous version to the new one, i.e. for example from 10.5.7 to 10.5.8. Software Update will generally download the Delta updater only. The preferable Combo updater needs to be downloaded from Apple's download site.
    Now proceed as follows:
    4. Close all applications and turn off energy saving and screensaver.
    5. Unplug all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
    6. Install the update/upgrade. Do not under any circumstances interrupt this procedure. Do not do anything else on your computer while it is installing. Be patient.
    7. When it ask for a restart to complete the installation, click restart. This can take longer than normal, there are probably thousands of files to overwrite and place in the correct location. Do nothing while this is going on.
    8. Once your Mac is awake, repair permissions again, and you should be good to go!
    If your Mac seems slightly sluggish or ‘different’, perform a second restart. It can’t hurt and is sometimes efficacious!
    9. Open a few of your most used applications and check that all is OK. In this connection please remember that not all manufacturers of third party applications and plug-ins, add-ons, haxies etc, will have had time to do any necessary rewrites to their software to make them compliant with the latest version of your operating system. Give them a weeks or two while you regularly check their websites for updates. This applies particularly to plug-ins for Safari 4.
    N.B. Do not attempt to install two different updates at the same time as each may have different routines and requirements. Follow the above recommendations for each update in turn.
    Lastly, Apple's own article on the subject of Software Update may also be useful reading:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106695
    If you are updating Safari (or just have):
    Input Managers from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If you have installed an OS update and Safari is crashing, the very first thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level /Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
    So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari.
    Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party add-on.
    Additional tips on software installation here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106692
    To reiterate, Input Managers reach right into an application and alter its code. This puts the behavior of the affected application outside the control and responsibility of its developers: a recipe for problems. That's not to say that issues absolutely will ensue as a result of Input Managers, but you, as a user, must decide. If the functionality of a specific Input Manager or set thereof is really important to you, you may well choose to assume the associated risk.
    Again, the advice is to remove all Input Managers from the following directories:
    • /Library/InputManagers
    • ~/Library/InputManagers
    especially prior to system updates (they can always be added back one-by-one later).

    Here is another person who has a problem with the iPhone 5 screen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sc1ZPWSA8dc and they have just received them NEW!!!!!
    I myself, two days ago purchased a  2nd hand iPhone 5 that was advertised as having a line of squares at the bottom of the screen. I Googled it and found people saying it was a screen issue and to replace the screen, so I did this and it is still happening with a new screen.
    I am starting to dislike Apple intensely after reading forum posts and watching videos where people are asking for help and telling us about issues that they are having with their phones.
    Why is Apple getting it so wrong with their updates and manufacturing that they are completely destroying iPhones that cost a lot of money and then expecting the owner to purchase another phone unless they are still in warranty.
    Apple you should be going out of your way to put things right for people but instead there is a wall of silence over so many of the issues destroying peoples phones.
    SHAME ON YOU!
