Startup taking too long and remote control

Hi,
today i used this cocktail software to run routine maintenance on my iMac G5(10.5.1), after the the software did it's thing issues started popping up
1. the initial start up sound the one when the light comes on, stays on for like 3 mins with a blank screen.
2. in the security pref. the apple remote control option has suddenly disappeared and the remote does not work, the remote it's works with my hi-fi and macbook so i am really lost i don't know what i have done
pls help

Yes i used the cocktail compaitble with leopard. the system appears to be working fine now but before that it displayed temp madness.
i tried to reset the system with cmdopt+PR, it took 2 mins for it to realize i was even pressing the keyboard when it finally did the fan went full power for a couple of seconds (the ambient light still on) and the system shut down. i tried to start it up again it will make the startup noise then shutdown i did that 5 times until i removed all the cables connected to it before it came back on. it started got to the desktop but 2 hardware's were disabled, USB's ports and the audio driver had to restart again.
now i am afraid to shut it down.

    You iPod has been jail broken.  Unfortunately you are on your own here. I can offer that you need to find out which method and software was used to JB.
    Good luck...you're gonna need it....

  • My iPod was updating to iOS 6 and i shut it off during the update because it was taking too long and now my screen in baby blue i've tried to drain the battery but when i plugged it in to charge the blue screen came back on.I dont know what to do

    My iPod was updating to iOS 6 and i shut it off during the update because it was taking too long and now my screen in baby blue i've tried to drain the battery but when i plugged it in to charge the blue screen came back on.I dont know what to do

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • What will happen if i leave the wifi area while downloading ios 7 software? the download is taking too long and i need to go somewhere

    ive been trying to download for hours now and its taking too long, i have places to go but i dont want to leave the wifi area if it will harm my iphone and the ios7 software isn't finished downloading...

    I think you can stop the download without any harm coming to your phone. But if it is actually installing and not just downloading, I would let it finish.

    Figure out ... you are the mechanics and suddenly I arrive and I say ... my car doesn't seem to work fine, what do you think it is?
    In this case it is very important to know the version, it normally has to do with checkpoint tuning, number of transactions, number of datafiles. So I suggest you to detail what are you talking about please.

  • Elements 10 reinstall taking too long

    I've been trying to reinstall Elements as I've recently upgraded my laptop. The download says it's taking anywhere from 6 to 21 hours!! I've tried it three times on three seperate days on both Chrome and IE and it always ends with the message "the download was taking too long and was stopped by the network". When I try to restart it it restarts from scratch, making it imposssible to ever complete the download. How can I reinstall Elements? I'm downloading from Thailand, is there a special server I should be connecting to?

    What is your current Bandwidth?
    Try from Adobe.com, and use the "In-Cognito Window" (Ctrl+Shift+N) in Chrome, (When you go to www.adobe.com, Choose - UnitesStates English, if it asks you)

  • HT5191 (Windows 7/64bit) iTunes Taking too long to Backup.

    Hi guys/gurus/"i" masters,
    Got a MAJOR issue with itunes. I don't know why this happens on windows but this is one issue i can't solve.
    I'm on an iPhone 4s running ios 5.0.1. I want to backup all my stuff before I bring to the latest firmware (5.1.1)
    I've had to force close the program many times as the backup was taking too long, and it didn't even move a bit (backup bar).
    Can anyone please help me to resolve this issue.
    Appreciate the help very much.
    Regards,
    TJB!

    Start by making sure you have the latest version of iTunes.
    If that doesn't do it, you may be seeing something like what is described in this Apple article -> Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    If it's what you're seeing, you can try resetting Winsock as a temporary fix or folllow along with the article.
    1. To do so, please do the following in an administrator user:
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: Right click All Programs and choose Accessories > Command Prompt. Choose to open as an administrator.
    Windows XP: Click Start > Run and type in cmd.
    2. Enter the following command: 
    netsh winsock reset
    3. Restart the computer and test the issue.
    Note:  If the issue returns, third-party software may be reinserting the LSP.

  • Browser times out when trying to view my website - says the server is taking too long. And no, I don't have a firewall.

    I can't view my website at www.artisancandies.com, even though it's working and everyone else seems to see it. No, I don't have a firewall, and it's not because of my internet provider - I have AT&T at work, and Comcast at home. My husband can see the site on his laptop. I tried dumping my cache in both Firefox and Safari, but it didn't work. I looked at it through proxify.com, and can see it that way, so I know it works. This is so frustrating, because I used to only see it when I typed in artisancandies.com - it would never work for me if I typed in www.artisancandies.com. Now it doesn't work at all. This is the message I get in Firefox:
    "The connection has timed out. The server at www.artisancandies.com is taking too long to respond."
    Please help!!!

  • HT4736 Taking too long (2 minutes) to locate and download photos into Photo '11 9.5 (902.7 build running on an older Intel based MacBook Pro with iPhoto libraries on a USB2 External HD).  I checked and repaired HD permissions. Any ideas?

    Regarding iPhoto '11 9.5 (902.7 build running on an older Intel based MacBook Pro with iPhoto libraries on a USB2 External HD).  I am dealing with iPhoto taking too long to download photos.  Specifically, I rechecked and repaired HD permissions. I am running the most current software my five year old Intel MacBook Pro can run.   What happens is that when I connect an external SD card, or my iPhone, the new version of iPhoto takes up to two full minutes to fully acknowledge the device. Then locate new photos and be ready to download them to my external HD.  I am kind of concerned about this.  This has never happened before. 
    I take 20,000 photos a year.  I really don't want to lose any.  Or is there something I am doing wrong?  Or need to be aware of?  Any experienced suggestions would be appreciated.  Thanks.  Have a great day.
    PS.... The cameras I use are Canon SX-30, Nikon D3100, and my iPhone 4S.  Thanks again for your assistance.

    Hello Old Toad.... Those sound like great ideas. 
    I thought I checked and repaired disk permissions on my main boot HD.  That boot disk is Mac OS Extended (Journaled)  Capacity 749.3 GB.  Available 562.53 GB.   BUT.... now that I think of it.... the Seagate external HD with USB2 interface is: Mac OS Extended (Journaled), Capacity 639.79 GB, Available 36.2 GB with my latest iPhoto Library 517.37 GB that was already scanned & updated to be read by the latest iPhoto version. 
    I'll try your suggestions tonight as far as double checking 'permissions' and setting up a tiny test library.
    Or maybe it's time to fill up another External HD?
    I appreciate your and anyone else's suggestions to try.
    Have a great day. ~~ David in Rochester NY

    iCloud only give so much space for free storage, then if you exceed the limit of 5gb you have to pay for additional storage.

  • We have purchased a movie on Apple TV (2) and its taking too long to load, so we want to watch movie on Itunes on the computer but can't find rented movies on the MAC

    We have purchased a movie via Apple TV (2) and its taking too long to load, so we want to watch movie on Itunes on the computer but can't find rented movies on the MAC iTunes

    Movies rented on Apple TV aren't transferable to another device. If its taking awhile to load then its an issue with your network.
    What is your speed via speedtest.net
    1080p requires 8mbps
    720p needs 6mbps
    You can change to SD in settings
    Interference can cause issues, verify via istumbler or netstumbler
    Should be using ISPs DNS (settings - network - DNS should be automatic)

  • HT1657 I just rented an HD movie, but it's taking too long to download and I would now prefer to download the regular version. Is there a way to change the quality without paying agin?

    I just rented an HD movie, but it's taking too long to download and I would now prefer to download the regular version. Is there a way to change the quality without paying agin?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Unfortunately you cannot re-download rentals, allow it to finish and enjoy it and consider the situation for further rentals.
    The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this at www.speedtest.net.
    1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps, 720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.
