Stuck on white load up page tried everything and it won't let me re-install mountain lion?

So my computer did this a couple of months ago.
I did a clean re-install and everything was fine other than losing everything. (Time machine failed me)
Yet again, it tried to load then doesn't, I've tried every suggestion available other than pulling my computer apart.
I tried another clean installation of mountain lion, a few times it said 99hours and 39 minutes left then did nothing for hours. Then the rest of the time the time keeps racking up then it crashes and says I need to go to the purchase page and try it from there, again does nothing....
Any suggestions or is my computer finally on its last legs (its 6 years old and used everyday all day)?
Thanks,
R

You may need to kill firefox.exe using taskill or task manager. Have a look at
* [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]
* [[firefox hangs]]
Updating Adobe software with their download managers does sometimes run into problems, there is for instance posibilities an install has failed to complete properly see
* [[Flash does not work properly or will not update]]

  • Imac G5 stuck on white loading screen with gray apple and spinning wheel

    I purchased this imac from a rebutable seller on ebay. He obviously had it working before he sent it to me, and he has been helpfull the whole way through, so I am positive this computer is not junk. When I recieved it, I plugged it in and turned it on, at first nothing would show up on the screen and the fans came on. Then, I contacted the seller and he told me to hold the shift key while turning it on. That did work to some extent. Now when I turn it on, it is stuck on the white screen with the gray apple and the spinning wheel. He had just updated and installed EVERYTHING imaginable so I am positive everything is up to date. I am not sure what to do, I have researched this but I cannot seem to find an answer. Oh, and even know on the white screen the fans turn on. It is quite weird.
    Well, I hope someone can help. Thank you.

    Call AppleCare. You should not be having problems with a brand-new machine.

  • Tried Everything and IPhone Won't Switch On...

    My step daughters IPhone 4 will not switch on no matter what we try. She says she used it until the battery died and then left it for a while. Then when she came to charge it again it is lifeless.
    We have tried leaving it to charge for a few hours, then we carefully cleaned the charging port at the bottom of the phone because it was filthy. Next we tried charging it with the USB cable.We also tried the reset with the home and sleep button but that doesn't do anything either. 
    Itunes doesn't recognise there is a phone connected at all and we are at a complete loss.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Connect iPhone to Wall Charger for 10 minutes it may turn ON itself. If not on, keep on charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start, this can take about 20 seconds of holding both buttons while on charger.

    Reset your iPod. Hold the power and the home button for 10 seconds till the iPod restarts. No data will be lost.

  • So on my MacBook Pro, a friend tried signing into the guest account. It's been stuck on the loading screen for 3 days and hasn't let me cancel the request and login to the original account. What can I do?

    Hold the power button down for 10 seconds.  It will power down your Mac.  You can then start it up again and see if you can log in normally.

  • I have a stuck CDR disk in my MacBook. I have tried everything and nothing works. When the computer starts it makes weird sounds and also when I try to eject it. Nothing Works! Please Help.

    I have tried everything and nothing works. When the computer starts it makes weird sounds and also when I try to eject it. Nothing Works! Please Help.

    I had that happen with a MacBook. It turned out that the metal case above the slot was slightly bent down.
    Putting a flat blade screwdriver in the slot and gently twisting it to move the metal case up allowed it to eject. Don't put it in too far you only want to bend the case not the drive.
    The case can get bent down by picking it up with your thumb pressing down on the case above the slot.

    Many thanks.
    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:
    Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    (If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

  • HELP!!! I have tried everything and Itunes still wont download...

    I have tried everything and I still cannot get Itunes to download onto my computer. When I try to uninstall it I get the error message of The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter and alternate path to a folder containing the installation package "iTunes.msi" in the box below. So when I cancel out of it because nothing works its says, "The installation source for this product is not available. Verify that the source exists and that you can access it. So I have tried uninstalling everything and all but Itunes uninstalls from my programs. I have tried deleting it off my hard drive still nothing. I tried downloading those "free" windows installer clean up programs, yeah those are so not free. Can someone please help me??

    The usual response from the computer after the download is that Bonjour64.msi cannot be found although it is on my computer.
    Unfortunately, these sorts of msi-related troubles have gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any BonJour entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try reinstalling iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
    (If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

  • Firefox 4 freezes after i open it (keeps loading the page non-stop and i cant click or do anything

    firefox 4 freezes after i open it (keeps loading the page non-stop and i cant click or do anything, plus there is no option to report an error so i cant even get this checked and this seems to be the case on 3 different computers i use all have windows 7 32bit.

    Hello,
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
    Thank you.

  • How do I change an Apple ID payment method to 'None'? I've tried everything and the only solution is to get a new e-mail and start all over again. Any other options?

    How do I change an Apple ID payment method to 'None'? I've tried everything and I found the only solution is to apply all over again with another e-mail address. Any other options?

    Buy an iTunes Music Card and redeem it to your account - the "none" option should be available then.

  • Error Code 50 when installing Creative Cloud desktop update - tried everything and no joy

    Folks I've been trying to update my CC desktop app to the latest release and keep getting Error Code 50 at around 47% of the install process.
    I've tried every suggestion that has been posted on the Adobe site and forums including:
    1 Opening my CC account in the Adobe website and then trying to install - no joy.
    2 Running the Adobe cleaner and re-installing CC - no joy.
    3 Restarting computer and attempting reinstall - no joy.
    4 All of the above with my firewall and anti-virus switched off - no joy.
    I'm running Windows 8.1 on a hi-spec machine and I've never had an issue with any update of the CC App or any of the program apps I utilise (Lightroom, Photoshop and Acrobat).
    Not really sure what I do now as I've tried everything and really need to keep working (pro photographer) so am having to ditch this for now as it's taking too much time.
    Grateful for any suggestions please.
    Many thanks
    James
