Startup hang issues

Hi folks.
I just got my iMac yesterday. I'm switching from a PC and have several work projects that need to be finished in Windows, so I decided to set up boot camp. I made a partition and clicked Install Windows. In my Windows installer, the partition that showed up didn't appear to be formatted to any specific file system which I found odd and it made me nervous, so I exited the installer so I could read the PDF of Bootcamp instructions that I saved in OSX before going any further.
The installer exited just like I'd expect it to. The comptuer restarted... and just hangs at the initial light grey screen after making the startup noise. Holding C will not let me boot off of my OSX cd. Holding option to select a partition makes my mouse pointer show up for aboug 30 seconds, then the pointer stops moving and the system continues to hang. Holding T for target disk mode does nothing. Resetting my PRAM obviously did what it was supposed to, as my startup sound got noticably louder on the subsequent restart... but still nothing.
What the **** happened? I need to get this thing up and going since I have deadlines to meet. Anyone have any ideas?

Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions ...

In the meantime, you could try booting in Safe Mode:
What is Safe Mode
Starting up in “safe mode” may help you to diagnose problems you’re having with your computer.
To start up in safe mode:
Shut down your computer and wait 10 seconds.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold down the Shift key.
You should press the Shift key as soon as possible after your hear the startup tone, but not before.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple logo and progress indicator (spinning gear).
To leave safe mode, restart the computer normally without holding down any keys during startup.
BootCamp

  • IWork '09 startup hang...proxy issue?

    iWork hangs at startup anytime that I launch the applications when I'm behind a firewall. I can reproduce this problem very easily by successfully starting up the application on home home network and encountering problems anytime I launch the applications under a VPN connection or at the office.
    Is iWork trying to check in with iwork.com at launch? If so, is there any way to disable this behavior or transparently handle the proxy issue without my having to edit preferences every time I switch network settings?
    Thanks for reading this!
    -Jamie

    I was able to eliminate the iWork '09 startup hang by properly configuring my global HTTP proxy. I ran "netstat -an" from the console during the hang and found that iWork was attempting to connect to one of the iWork.com servers at startup.
    Here's what I saw:
    hostname:~ username$ netstat -an

  • Power mac G4 - Startup hangs at gray screen

    Hello all,
    I have a Power mac G4 - mirrored drive door model.  512mb of RAM; 833mghz - about 50+ gigabytes of storage remaining.
    I recently starting using this mac again, here is what happened:
    Power mac G4 was running 10.2.1 - had never been updated; it also was capable of running classic os9 (even though I never used it)
    Started using machine again a few weeks ago; let "software update" install 10.2.8 update - everything worked fine
    Put computer into target disk mode to transfer files to my new macbook pro (13") - using firewire connection
    While trying to connect (migration assistant) - window froze will calculating the amount of space that the "user" on the power mac totalled - power mac appeared to be frozen
    Did a hard reset / power down of the power mac G4
    Upon restart, power mac G4 goes through all start up functions up to gray screen with apple logo (with spinning wheel) and then goes to a darker gray screen (without the logo) and spinning wheel
    Dark gray screen with spinning wheel hangs indefinitely - I've let it stay there for hours on end hoping it will resolve but it doesn't
    Here's what I have done so far:
    Placed power mac G4 into target disk mode again in conjunction with macbook proI can see all the files on the power mac G4 (and have already copied them to the macbook pro) - so I don't think the hard drive is damaged
    Disconnected all non-apple peripheral devices - only had a card installed in the back - but took that out - issue persisted (did not replace card in back)
    Removed one non-apple RAM stick - issue persisted
    Replaced non-apple RAM stick and removed apple RAM stick - issue persisted
    Reset PRAM
    Started computer in single-user modeused fsck and tried to have system check/fix issue; no matter how many times I re-run the command to repair it never comes back with a message saying no issues found - instead it keeps returning with a message saying that the issue was repaired "system modified"
    Started computer in verbose modestartup seems to hang when this appears:
    "/System/Library/CoreServices/loginwindow.app/Contents/MacOs/loginwindow: (ipc/send) invalid destination""LayState: cannot map display interlocks."
    "/System/Library/CoreServices/loginwindow.app/Contents/MacOs/loginwindow: kCGErrorFailure: CGSNewConnection""Cannot connect to server"
    "/System/Library/CoreServices/loginwindow.app/Contents/MacOs/loginwindow: kCGErrorInvalidConnection""Connection called with invalid connection"
    Tried re-installing with system discsThe only discs I received with the power mac G4 when I purchased are orange and say "SSW version 8.6" on it" ("iMac Software Restore" and "iMac Software Install")
    Computer does not respond when holding down "C" key at startup with either disc in the drive
    When holding down "option" key at startup, the computer shows the bootable choices as ONLY the internal HD - not either of the CDs I mentioned above; I wonder if it no longer recognizes the original CDs because I updated to 10.2.8 from 10.2.1 before the issue?I also have an install disc for OS X 10.4.7 - for a friend's iMac (G5)
    When holding down "C" key at startup with the OS X 10.4.7 in the drive I get a kernel panic
    When holding down "option" key at startup, the computer shows the bootable choices as the OS X 10.4.7 in the drive AND the internal HD
    When I choose the OS X 10.4.7 in the drive I get a kernel panic
    When I choose the internal HD the startup hangs at the gray screen I mentioned above
    At this point, I don't know what else to do.  I believe the computer is still good because I can see everything on it when I put it into target disk mode; it just refuses to make it through the startup/login process.  I have read discussion threads that suggest re-installing the OS using another computer - but I don't know how to do that.  I also wondered if there was a way to tell the computer to re-install the software using the original CDs - but from the command line (in single-user mode)?
    Someone - PLEASE HELP!

    Sorry, SU Single User Mode, OF Open Firmware as these 2 where mentioned before.
    As a test, let's try disconnecting the HD & see if it booys to any mode without it attached.
    It could be the User's files or login messed up, if you want to try something a little more desperate...
    Reset OS X Password Without an OS X CD...
    http://theappleblog.com/2008/06/22/reset-os-x-password-without-an-os-x-cd/
    It'll boot like a newly setup Mac, but all your stuff should still be there once filling out the stuff.
    Except you could just use Target mode and move or rename that file.

  • CF Builder2 hanging issues

    We recently started installing CF Builder2 on developer machines, and almost all of them are reporting serious hanging issues with the computers locking up.
    Has anyone experinced/experiencing this problem?

    Yes, @umuayo, there can be many explanations for CFB hanging. I discuss a few here, but more than just pot-shot guesses, I also offer some specific diagnostic steps you can take to hopefully find and resolve such problems.
    One common cause I recall hearing is when you have your CFB project set to look at files on a share (rather than on a local drive to CFB).
    Consider that CFB is doing a lot more than just “editing a file”. It’s doing syntax checking on the fly, it’s looking up methods in CFCs, files you can include, tables and columns in databases as you type SQL, and all manner of other helpful operations…all of which can be expensive for it to figure out depending on your configuration.
    There are also some operations that are done either on startup, or on certain other operations you may do only once in a while.
    So when you say it hangs up, when does it do so? At startup? After some period of time? On doing some particular operation? And of those may help you narrow down the cause.
    One helpful tip is to open the Progress View in CFBuilder (Window > Show View > Other ). That shows background tasks that are run when you do various things within builder, especially communications going on back and forth between CFB and any server you may have it talking to. If you have that view open all the time (best viewed at the bottom of the window to be wide), you may see what it was starting to do when things hung up.
    Still another common problem is that people find that the problem is that the JVM (within CFBuilder) is running out of heap. Just as CF can hang and crash when that happens, so too can CFB (independent of CF, of course.)  You can tweak the max heap size (xmx argument) in the startup properties for CFB. If you’re using the standalone edition (versus running CFB as a plugin), you’d tweak the cfbuilder.ini file in the directory where CFBuilder is installed. If you’re running as a plugin, I’d recommend you research how to change the JVM args based on your OS, version of Eclipse, how you start it, etc.
    Also related to memory, you can also set CFB (and Eclipse) to show you a heap size use indicator (and even request a GC), with the feature that appears at the bottom of the editor window when you go to Preferences>General then click Show heap status.
    Similar to the above, but different, another thing people have found is a problem on 64-bit Windows, which is resolved with another simple change in the startup args (changing it from using javaw.exe to using jvm.dll for the jvm). For more on that, see these two blogs: http://www.websolete.com/posts/cfbuilder-2-performance-problems-on-windows-7-64-bit-solved and http://www.coldfusionmuse.com/index.cfm/2012/1/27/cfbuilder-performance-64bit-plugin.
    Finally, and perhaps the easiest thing to consider: you mention being on “CFBuilder 2”. You don’t clarify if that’s really 2.0 or 2.0.1, the free update that came out at the same time as CF10. That has various performance fixes, listed in a section at  <http://www.adobe.com/devnet/coldfusion/articles/cfbuilder201-whatsnew.html> http://www.adobe.com/devnet/coldfusion/articles/cfbuilder201-whatsnew.html, including a mention of some features that can have a performance impact that you may want to watch out for.
    Also, if you are still on CFB 2.0 and choose to remain there for some reason, there was a hotfix for that,  <http://www.adobe.com/support/coldfusion/downloads_updates.html#cfb2> http://www.adobe.com/support/coldfusion/downloads_updates.html#cfb2.
    Hope that helps. Let me know what you think.
    /charlie
    PS there are a few blog entries out that address CFBuilder performance. If for some reason the above don’t help, consider these as well, though do note that some could be from the CFB1 or CFB2.0 era and may not be as relevant for CFB2.0.1:

  • Startup hang: grey screen, spinning wheel, then automatic reset to same

    Brand new imac, installed 10.5, updated to 10.5.1, ported over a few dozen applications, utilities and preferences, plus 20,000 files from G4 running 10.3.1, using the "migration assistant."
    Took the obviously useless/ redundant apps and utilities out...plus some light, but possibly ill-advised pruning of what seemed like way outdated library items
    Killed the automatically generated new user in favor of the migration-assistant ported over and updated G4 identity...(or was this where I went wrong?)
    did some more house cleaning, including installing new versions of several pieces of software, including sheepshaver, and (last thing done) parallels with windows XP.
    Everything working hunky dory...woo hoo, fast new computer ready for biz mon...but no;
    After shutdown, it won't start up; hangs on grey screen with spinning clock, then resets...
    Restarts fine from install disk, did disk utility/repair disk, no problems found, same issue on startup
    My plan is to
    1) repair permissions, try starting up
    2) re-install system, with old system archieved, try starting up again
    Any insights most welcome...

    UPDATE:
    First, forgot to mention that I'd globally changed permissions to read/write all around on the whole drive.
    Second, I'll be darned if the Disk Utility/ Repair Permissions thing didn't unhang it...so much for the doubters I saw on some other forum post who said this is mere voodoo...
    After a few hours of permissions repair, on a successful restart, it identified a bunch of startup item issues, which I fixed or deleted, and now all but parallels works. We'll see what happens after I reinstall parallels...

  • Cisco NAC server hang issue

    Hi All Cisco NAC Experts,  I am currently experiencing a Cisco NAC NAC3315-SVR hang issue.
    The issue was already happened for few time on the same server and the symptom when NAC server hung includes no response to ICMP ping, no response to SSH request, no response for access request to CAS management page via https, HA pair was detected down from its HA neighbor and triggered failover to secondary CAS.
    The CAS server was recovered after manually power cycle the hardware. 
    After went through the attachment CAS logs, I found all the services and logging service were stopped when the issue happening but unfortunately there is no any suspicious activity was logged down before or during the issue happening.
    I have also tried to search on Cisco Bug Toolkit but no similar case was found, I believe it was not caused by software bug due to the software version 4.8.1 is running in my company for years and only one CAS server having the issue.
    That will be great if any one can help me out for the same.
    Thanks,
    Eric

    Hi Bro
    This could be a problem with the certificate in that Cisco NAC appliance itself. My suggestion is to redo the certificate generation between the CAS CAM and CA Server. If this still doesn’t work, it could also be due to overload/broadcast storm on the LAN portion. This can be verified via Wireshark.
    If all else fail, then a hardware swap would seem like the next best thing.

  • 27" iMac startup hangs freezes

    I have a 27" iMac and am having trouble starting up. I get the startup chime but the startup hangs or freezes and the iMac tries to restart again after a little while.
    So I tried starting up from a Techtools CD in the external drive (there is no internal CD drive on the iMac). Unfortunately the iMac would not start from the CD and the CD is now stuck in the external drive. I was able to eject the CD by holding down the mouse button or trackpad while restarting. I tried starting up from an OS X 10.6.3 install DVD but it didn't seem to read it while holding down the C key at startup.
    I tried a PRAM zap (holding down the Option + Cmd + P + R keys for two or three chimes) but the startup still hangs freezes.
    I tried starting up holding down Cmd + S to boot Unix but I don't really know Unix so only entered exit.
    I tried starting up holding down Cmd + R which I think is the recovery system but the startup still got stuck.
    Holding down the Shift key while starting up brings up the "safe mode" and a grey bar which didn't fill before it disappeared and the startup froze.
    Holding down the Option key while starting up brought up the hard drive to select as the startup disk but startup still hung.
    Any ideas or help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    Thanks for getting back to me quickly.
    I get the startup chime when the iMac starts up, the little daisy goes around a few times but then gets stuck. The iMac will shut itself down and continue to try to restart.
    Holding down Shift during startup brings up the safe mode grey bar on the bottom of the screen but this fills only to about one-third before the startup freezes.
    I tried starting up holding down the C key with a OS X 10.6.4 (Snow Leopard) install DVD in an external CD/DVD drive but just as you said, it would not boot from that.
    I tried holding down the D key at startup to perform the Apple Hardware Test. Even the extended test did not detect any hardware problems.
    Holding Cmd + R during startup would not start the recovery mode for me. However, holding Option down at startup did give me the choice of the Recovery 10.8.2 partition. Unfortunately, this froze as it was starting up too.
    So I tried your suggestion of holding down Opt + Cmd + R to boot from Apple's remote servers. This started up but even then froze too.
    I think you might be right that it could be a logic board problem. So I will take it in for repair.
    Thanks Ralph, I much appreciate your help with this.

  • Nokia 301 RM-839 v9.04 hanging issue.

    Hello,
    I have observed hanging issue while we take photo using camera. Instead of saving & showing options it show image taken preview. Keyboard also hangs. Only way is to stop camera or restart removing battery.
    Has anyone seen such issue? Any clue?
    Kindly Suggest.
    Thanks,

    occasionally phones can receive "updates", where the actual SW version remains the same. Usually this means just some very minor tweaks to e.g.  operator settings or similar things. So hardly anything noticeable.

  • Excel 2007 "Hang" issue when copy/pasting.

    Hi.
    I have a user, using terminal services from a HP thin client. The server is a Windows server 2008 R2 SP1, Office 2007 SP3. The user is trying to copy from a IBM access session into Excel, sometimes the Excel will hang, an needs to be forcefully closed down
    using the Task Manager. I have made sure that the IBS Access is using the clipboard function on the server. Other users can copy/paste from this program without any issues. The server is fully updated and the office pack also.
    Any suggestions on where to start?
    Regards Martin

    Hi Martin,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Thus from your description it seems that particular user is facing the hangs issue, please correct me if there is anything misunderstand from my side.
    Does this happens for all Excel file with that user?
    Please try with RDP 8.1 for user and check the result. Please check the network connectivity is good. As user is copy pasting from IBM session it can create a little delay with file size or corrupt Excel file. The issue might also appear because the size for
    Excel sheet would be very high and thus during the logon time it will take a long time to open. Also it may take into hang issue for the users. In addition also check below link for information.
    What can cause slow copy and paste in Excel?

  • Startup hangs at "Waiting for Internet Services"

    I have a Quicksilver 800 and after a power outage when I tried to restart my Mac the startup hangs at "Waiting for Internet Services" and will not get to the login window. I ran a disk repair, permissions repair, and ran Disk Warrior with no luck. I'd appreciate any help you can give.

    William, welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Will it boot from your system CD?
    Is the Startup Disk set to start from your HD or a Network?
    Many times after a power failure, the Mac won't startup & you have to do a PMU reset. See Mac PRAM, NVRAM, CUDA/PMU & Battery Tutorial

  • Solved Mac Mini (late 2010) Blue Screen Hang issue

    I posted several questions about blue screen hang and was able to fix my problem, after LOTS of work and searching in various forums.
    I had been unable to use my computer for over a month; it was simply hanging at the blue screen, and that seemed to happen when my Finder.app had crashed, hiding all my document icons on my desktop, etc. I also had been having issues with Time Capsule and my backup Iomega disk, which is touchy.
    When I tried a fix my icons had returned but I had been unable to use computer after rebooting, and I had tried every sort of key combo including trying to boot from the original install CD, etc., but nothing worked. I could not even reboot using original 10.6 software CDs, and was only able to log in Single User Mode and had tried many fixes with Terminal, and finally, this worked, two of the fixes I used are listed below.
    It seems, in part, that resetting certain "privileges" worked.
    This tip first tip is for Mac OSX 10.3 to 10.3.9 and even though I am on 10.6.8, I ran it, and it worked. THis is the original link location: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1411
       1. Start up the computer in Single-User Mode.
       2. Type: in Terminal the command
         mount -uw /
       3. Press Return.
       4. Type (in Terminal, note space before mv)
          mv /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow.plist preferences2.old
         Note space between ".plist" and "preferences".
       5. Press Return.
       6. Type:
         mv /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist preferences3.old
       7. Press Return.
       8. Type: reboot
       9. Press Return.
    Then I followed up with this tip to "Reset certain privileges"
      1. Start up the computer in Single-User Mode.
       2. Check the volume with fsck.
       3. Type: mount -uw /
       4. Press Return.
       5. Type: chmod 1775 /
       6. Press Return.
       7. Type: reboot
       8. Press Return.
    When I rebooted, yayyyy! I was able to log back onto my computer, however, all icons were missing, again, so I typed this fix
    /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/MacOS/Finder & disown
    I am not sure what 1775 means, but this fix got my computer back up, saving me at least a $150 bill at the Genius Bar.
    When I typed those commands into Terminal, this is what returned, and seems to be some  QXPscrpiting issue, though I have no idea what that is. and again, some  Dropbox issues. If anyone has any idea what all those issues are regarding ScriptingCodes please let me know.

    Great work, thanks.
    As far as those errors, ypu have some missing OS components it seems.
    And, before the mount -uw you really should've done this...
    /sbin/fsck -fy
    Repeat until it shows no errors fixed.
    (Space between fsck AND -fy important).
    Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck...

    I'm out of ideas what might be causing this wireless issue. I've been avoiding updating to the newest itunes version due to crash issues I've heard about, but now I'm concerned as if to whether it's even safe to use it at all.
    I also ran into a 'Windows 7 hanging on startup' issue. I disabled all things Apple and it seemed to fix the issues, including the wifi hang. But sadly it was only temporary. I once again ran into the wifi issue.
    Anyone else running into something similar? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Is it the iPad that is the only device that cannot connect to the Internet....and other wireless devices can connect OK.....or.....is it a case of none of the wireless devices being able to connect to the Internet?
    One of the potential issues here is that the iPad cannot be used to make any configuration changes to the older version of the AirPort Express that you have, so hopefully you have another Mac there that could be used to make any changes if needed.

  • Snow Leopard startup hangs on "None of your preferred networks are available" dialogue

    Hi everyone
    Running a 2006 Intel iMac, OSX 10.6.8
    I have recently run into the "grey screen at start up" issue that is documented here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570
    I ran every routine in this article, up to and including a disk repair off the OSX install disk and this step seems to have fixed the  grey screen problem. However there is still one major problem unsolved that the article does not cover.
    Boot up runs normally and allows me to get into my account (there are 4 accounts on the machine). However i am then getting a dialogue screen "None of your preferred networks are available" with a list of local wireless networks (mine and neighbours).
    I have had this dialogue screen at times in the past and have simply been able to click cancel to bypass it. However the system is now hanging on this dialogue. If I try to click Cancel or Other the dialogue box changes position and the remainder of the desktop darkens, as if an action is taking place, but nothing happens beyond that.
    The spinning progress wheel appears intermittently on the "preferred networks" dialogue box, suggesting that some sort of routine is trying to run, but never successfully.
    I have seen many other discussion posts on the "Preferred Networks" dialogue, but only one which describes the system actually hanging on this dialogue - that was in 2007 and the user was going to reformat the HD - he/she didn't post the outcome.
    This iMac is normally connected to the router by Ethernet cable. I have tried booting with and without the cable attached. I have tried booting in safe mode. Neither of these have had any effect.
    I have reinstalled Snow Leopard (without erase) and this has had no effect either.
    Can anyone recommend any other fixes I can try? Or is a complete HD reformat the only option?
    Thanks in advance for any help, hugely appreciated.

    Apple support fixed the problem!
    It turned out to be a defect with the wired mouse that I was using. In fact, nothing to do with the "preferred networks" dialogue box at all. Because that box was popping up on startup it just seemed that it was associated with the system hang.
    Swapped out the wired mouse for a different one and everything back to normal - after weeks of pain !!!!
    Hopefully this will be of use to someone else one day .....................

    Hi, 
    If you performed Recovery to Factory, if the issue persists, I suggest that you contact HP and get the PC serviced.
    Thank You.
