Upgraded to osx10.8 and only works in safe mode

I just upgraded to osx10.8 and only works in safe mode! What now?

"works in safe mode" meaning you do not get instant kernel panic when you boot up, and instant kernel panics on boot-up were happening before? If this is the case, it may be that one (or more) of your third-party log-in items is incompatible with 10.8.

Monitor only works in safe mode

My monitor only works in safe mode. when restart in normal mode the monitor screen is blank. when I start in safe mode the monitor works fine.

Is there a reason you have not entered the menu as I have suggested and reset the monitor to factory default?
Your old school monitor needs a kick in the pants to remind it that it is plug n' play. That is essentially what the reset will do. It won't hurt anything.
Was the TV you had connected to the PC before using the monitor an HDTV one with 1080p resolution?
In order to reinstall the graphics driver you will need to be logged in as a user with elevated (admin) priveleges. A standard user cannot install drivers or programs. You do not heed to reinstall RAID drivers.
You might need to consider replacing the monitor with a modern LCD display. They are quite inexpensive these days and can evven be found in the second hand market.
If you don't want to do that then you can remove the video card and then connect the monitor VGA cable to the video output port on the rear of the desktop PC. Removing the card will enable the onboard video.

Only works in safe mode

Help....I am only a novice mac user (so I need help in the most layman terms possible). Seems all my Apple products are going kaput; first one being my macbook (early 2008 model). Looks like my disk drive isnt working correctly; I put in a new hard drive.....I went to reinstall Snow Leopard then upgrade to Lion. Ever since then my mac only seems to work in safe mode. I used my imac to load snow leopard....(with firewire); and downloaded lion from app store. is there a way to wipe clean and start over? There is nothing on the computer that I need.....I keep all my important files on an external hard drive. my big concern is I dont know how to do it and second since I dont have a disk for lion will just going back to app store allow me to re-download or will I have to pay 30 bucks again. I have seen others have had similar issues...I just cant seem to figure this out. If anyone can help I will be eternally grateful!
Ray

When your in safe mode try going to the Disk Utility and doing a Disk Repair. Repair Permissions. Then see if that lets you boot normally. If that doesn't work you might need to reinstall Snow Leopard again then upgrade to Lion. (Lion will still be available under your App Store Purchases tab and you don't have to pay again).
I recommend you using Time Machine. Not only do you save yourself the trouble of copying things to your External Hard Drive, but if you run into something like this again restoring it from Time Machine saves you all the time you spend downloading Lion and Installing Snow Leopard. Plus everything is exactly how you last backed up. Everything!
Best of luck.
By the way, if you don't see the App Store when you install Snow Leopard just do a software update from the top left apple icon of your system and you should see it when its done.

ATI 9700 only works in Safe Mode ?

Hi,
I purchased a Celestica ATI 9700 MAC gfx card and it seems only to work in Safe Mode. In normal mode my G4 boots but wont reach the login screen, the screen stays blue and occasionaly it may show the mouse(responds).
I can only think that the card is broke and isnt being stressed by Safe Mode or has some kind of incompatible firmware?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated as i'd love to get the 9700 running in my machine.
Cheers
John

Hi
I could well be wrong but I've always been under the impression the 9700 only works in MDD G4s. I believe they were only available from Apple at the time as a built to order option and the AGP slot in all MDD G4s was modified to provide additional power to the card. I'm not sure whether third party 9700 graphics cards need this though. The 9800 gets round it by having a separate internal power connector, so it can be used in any G4 with an AGP slot.

PowerPC g5 only work in safe mode

I have a PowerPC g5 running os x version 10.5.8 which has been working fine but the other day was not given the option to log in just a blue screen and some fan noise. I am able to use the mac in safe mode but that is it :-(

The iMac G5 was one that had many power supply and bad capacitor issues. This sounds like one of them.
Come on. The poster says it works in safe mode, so how can it be a power supply problem?
Seems like a video chip problem to me. The solder worked loose over time in some machines. Re-solder for the brave.
You will have to translate this to 10.5.
You may have a problem with the video chip.
Here is how to tell...
Shutdown your machine. Hold down the shift key. Poweron. Bootup will be longer.
Wait awhile while you harddrive is being checked.
An article on how to boot into safe mode.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1455
Runs OK in safe mode...
Running in Safe mode leaves out some video drivers. Which results in your machine not using advanced video hardware. As luck would have it, you can run the safe mode video drivers in normal mode.
Here is how:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/16057567#16057567
Look through the above thread. See the second page. You don't have to read through the first page. Just go to the part where I try a solution that works.
Summary of G5 problems. Includes instructions on a hardware fix for the brave at heart:

ITunes only works in safe mode. No 3rd party plug-ins installed.

Since the last itunes update I can open and run it in safe mode with no problems but if I open it normally itunes crashes. I tried following the steps for 3rd party plugins that everyone has been posting about but no plug ins are in the two folders that are suggessted in the apple article. Any help is greatly appreciated.

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
If you've already done the above and things still aren't working, try opening iTunes in safe mode by holding down CTRL+SHIFT as you launch iTunes, then going into Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. If you close iTunes and reopen you may find that it now behaves normally.

Late 2009 imac- Mavericks, Kernel Panics- checkerboard screen- only works in Safe Mode now.

Need help with Late 2009 imac- had HD and video card replaced under Apple Care last year. Upgraded to Mavericks and it froze up while on Yahoo looking at a slide show. Screen pixelated with checkerboard patterns and then eventually locks-up. Only way to get it to work now is in SAFE MODE.
Tried memory test, Resetting SMC, AHT, Zapping NVRAM, PRAM, only errors I can see are some permissions

All RAM tested individually and Passed- Ran a Ram memory test as well.
New kernel panic is now as follows-
What's interesting is I had the video card replaced at Apple in the last year- it's a ATI Radeon HD 4850 512 MB
But I see that the log has it listed as
"com.apple.ATIRadeonX2000(8.2.4)"
wondering if that my be the problem as the issue is the screen is fragmented and flickers- checkerboard before it crashes when not in safe mode..

External display - maximum resolution only works in safe mode on MBP

I'm having an issue with an external display connected to a 2012 non-retina MacbookPro 15" i7 running 10.9. Monitor is Dell U2713HM, which has a maximum resolution of 2560x1440, and is connected via a Mini-Dipslayport to Displayport cord.
My setup has been working great for over a year, where while at my office I use the macbook closed in "clamshell mode" with the Dell monitor being the only display in use, running at 2560x1440. However today when I came into my office and connected to the dispay as usual, the resolution on the Dell was noticably scaled. System preferences is showing it running Scaled at 1080p, and when I select Best for Display it stretches to a very wide and distorted resolution. I can hold alt and click the Scaled button to display additional resolutions, however the maximum resolution listed is 1600x1200. Same problem regardless of clamshell, mirror, or extended desktop modes.
I've been trying to track down the problem, and have run though the usual procedures: restart, shutdown, reset PRAM, reset SMC, check cord connections, verify disk, repair disk permissions - all to no avail. However when I boot in safe mode the display runs as it should at 2560x1440 without issue, which lets me know its not a problem with the cord or connectioin, but rather something on the OS / GPU side.
I can't for the life of me figure out what is causing the issue. Considering its been working fine for quite some time, and I've made no unusual changes to the MBP in the past 48 hours when the display was working properly, I'm not really sure where to go from here. Hoping to not have to migrate to a new user or repartion my HDD.
Any suggestions on possible solutions?
Thanks.

I stumbled upon a fix. Still not sure what caused the issue in the first place, but for anyone having the same issue, the display override script contained on the site below seems to have fixed the issue.

Indesign CS6 only works in safe mode (windows 7)

I have installed the CS6 suite in Windows safe mode (after multiple attempts did not work in normal mode, it kept stopping at 2% installed) using the Adobe application manager. I am on a trial period, my company is going to start paying monthly after the first free month.
All the adobe products work ok (photoshop, illustrator, dreamweaver etc), except Indesign. When I double click the icon, the hourglass appear for a few seconds and nothing else.
If I double click the Indesign icon with Task manager open I can see that it appears as a 'process' for about 10 seconds, then disappears.
If I go into Safe mode Indesign will open and work but obviously this isn't ideal.
How can I fix this?
Any help would be great.
(I have done all the usual things, like uninstall the whole package & install again, restart etc. I also ran the Adobe suite cleaner tool incase old versions on this computer were interfering. I uninstalled everything, and deleted the Adobe folder etc.)
I am using Windows 7 Professional with a fast processor, 8gb ram.

Ability to run in safe mode but not in normal Windows operation could point to a conflict between InDesign and the driver for your graphics card. In safe mode, only a generic Windows video driver is used, regardless of your video card. Otherwise, whatever secret sauce driver provided by the provider of your video card is used. InDesign, as well as other Adobe applications, depends heavily on your video card and if your video card supports direct access to its GPU (if it has one), these applications make use of same.
See if there is an updated driver for your video card that you can download. From what I can see, some of the video card manufacturers almost have a driver du jour posted to fix various problems reported by users. If you have the latest driver, see if there are settings associated with “optimization” or “performance” via any control panel item or utility associated with the video card and try scaling those back. That might finesse the problem.

HELP! Finder gives SPOD, only works in safe mode.

I hope someone else out there has experience with this issue, I am stuck. My wifes Macbook Pro just hangs after booting and gives the spinning pinwheel of death. I can't open or close anything and can only do a hard restart. It works fine in safe mode. She uses Parallels often but hasn't had any issues in the last year she has used it.
Specs are:
OS X Version 10.8.2
2.7 GHz Intel Core i7
4 GB 1333MHz DDR3
13 inch screen, Intel HD Graphics 3000 384MB
500 GB SATA with 125 GB free
Here is what I've done so far:
- Installed all software updates
- Cleaned the caches manually
- Deleted the .plist files for finder
- Verified all disk permissions
- Verified the hard drive
- Nothing is in the user account start-up preferences
- Reset the PRAM
- Entered Single User Mode and run /sbin/fsck-f
I have no idea what is going on with it. The problem just happened out of the blue though she said it had been slow for a while coming out of sleep and locking up in Safari. Could it be a RAM issue? Or Lion? I'm ready to do a little "percussive maintence" on it if it keeps up!

Well you have done everything correct and supplied itemized list of your actions.
I do not suspect Parallels was your problem.
A couple possible alternatives:
With ML 10.8 you can boot into Recovery and reinstall the OS on top of your existing OS. All data and documents will remain untouched and intact. Of course alway good to have a back-up in case something goes wrong here.
Recovery http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
You could restore from TimeMachine or a bootclone previous to the problem appearing.
And yes you can create a new user account with admin priveldges and move your data/documents.
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-20016747-263.html (still applicable for 10.8)
http://pondini.org/OSX/Transfer.html
I cannot necessarily state which would be the better option since the problem remains unresolved.

Multiple apps only working in Safe Mode since 10.9.1 update

Hey guys!
I recently updated to 10.9.1 and at first, everything seemed find, but slowly I discovered that some apps crash the moment they are launched.
The list of crashing apps includes (but is not limited to) CodeKit, GeekTool Helper, AppCleaner, ControllerMate and Bartender.
What makes things odd, AppCleaner I managed to get working by removing it, then snagging a new copy. ControllerMate and Bartender both only crashed once or trice, thus work almost all the time.
CodeKit and GeekTool however crash every single time. I once got CodeKit to work again for a single evening by getting rid of all its files and using a new copy, but the next day it was back to instantly crashing. Deleting all its files never ever worked again since.
The symptom of the crash is always the same: There is no error message; instead the app’s window freezes, and the mouse on hover gives me the spinning wheel of death. Activity Monitor shows the crashed app is using about 100.2% CPU power and the only way to get rid of it is to force-close it.
Not all the crashes are so kind as to provide me a crash log, but every now and then one does, and this is what I got in all of them:
Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)
Exception Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at 0x00007f8332c00000
VM Regions Near 0x7f8332c00000:
MALLOC_TINY 00007f8332800000-00007f8332c00000 [ 4096K] rw-/rwx SM=PRV
-->
MALLOC_SMALL 00007f8333000000-00007f8335000000 [ 32.0M] rw-/rwx SM=PRV
What I tried so far:
— Uninstall/remove all related files of the applications in question
>> For AppCleaner this worked (only crashed a single time since).
>> For CodeKit this worked only a single time, but the next day crashes returned, and this method never helped ever again.
— Logging into a Guest account.
>> CodeKit and GeekTool seemed to work at first, back then crashed the same way.
— Safe boot!
>> Here all programs appear to work fine. I messed around for a few minutes but could not get them to crash.
So according to the internet, I assume this may be caused by an obsolete kext that is not 10.9.1 compatible or a third-party app that does not get loaded when in safe mode.
Can anyone give me any advice on how I can narrow down the cause of this mess or even how to solve it?

thanks a bunch man!
just repairing disk permissions didnt fix it (already tried that before).
the re-installing idea i read on the forum before where people had similar problems after an 10.8.6 update, but they had different exceptions being thrown and safe mode I believe didnt work for them either.
but upon your suggestion, I gave it a shot either way. I dont have a recovery hd, but I got around that by creating an install usb with 10.9.1, booted into that one and reinstalled in-place.
and voila! no instant-crashes, no exceptions thrown, no butt-kicking and no table-flipping! I kept things running for a few hours yesterday, and all apps are still working properly today. :3
I find it a bit weird the second installation got things working whereas the full update screwed things up, but oh well, if 10.9.2 comes around and all app-**** breaks loose again, at least I now know how to handle it.
so once again, thanks a whole lot man <3 just saved my butt!

Imac will only work in safe mode

This follows on from a previos posting where I had to reformat the hard drive because of file conflicts. Since then the pc worked fine for a while then suddenly froze and will only boot now in safe mode again. If we leave it on overnight it sometimes will boot normally the next day and work like this for a couple of days and then goes back to safe mode again. Its really annoying since we cannot print anything when in this mode. Is this normal for Imacs to constantly keep suffering from file conflicts like this? and how do I stop it?
Thanks in advance for any reply

Apparently Preferential Treatment is not seeing and/or finding something that is corrupting your system.
This is a long shot & very time consuming but you may wish to try the following (some of which you may have already tried).
Except for the keyboard & mouse, disconnect all devices/peripherals from your computer.
Step 1: Restart into Safe Mode by holding down the Shift key during startup. The comp will run a complete & lengthy file systtem check, then start up w/only the required kerenel extensions & w/o running any Startup items tthat you installed.
If you are running OS 10.4 it will also perform some font finagling.
Try starting up normally again. If you are still stalling, restart in Safe Mode & move on to Step 2...........
Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode
Step 2: Open Library>Startup items folder-the root level Library, not the one in your user name folder.
Look for potentially problematic 3rd party items such as virus scanning software components, etc. Remove 1 or more items to a location outside the Library folder, such as the Desktop, then restart normally & see if your Mac stalls. It it does, try removing all the items in the Startup items folder & restart. If all’s now well, place the items back into the Startup items folder 1 by 1, restarting each time you put one back. If and/or when the stall resurfaces, you just identified the faulty component.
If the above does not work, then it’s time to move on to Step 3.................
Step 3: WARNING-This step can be tedious-removing .plist files from the /Library/Preferences folder.
Remove the entire Preferences folder from the Library folder on your startup drive then place the files back 1 by 1 until you see the problem return. *The Mac will automatically create a new Preferences folder in the Library folder*
Alternatively, you can take half of the items out (all non-Apple .plist file, for example), restart to see if your Mac stalls, then move to a smaller set of items, repeatingn the process until the culprit is found.
Hang in there & good luck!!!!

Satellite L30 Vista screen not lit; extrnal monitor only works in Safe Mode

HI,
I have LS30-10S.
first the laptop screen would not light up though I could see a faint ghost of icons etc;
I tried unplugging and holding power button down (battery is long time dead) with intermittent and random success;
I borrowed an external LCD monitor (Lenovo Thinkvision) and that worked fine, and pressing Fn+F5 would actually sometimes bring the laptop screen to life too.
I changed the screen inverter and that seemed to restore the laptop screen, but the next time I rebooted +neither+ screen would work unless I chose safe mode.
Currently I can only use the external screen and only in safe mode.
Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi
Just few questions:
Has the external monitor worked properly before you disassembled the notebook and replaced the LCD inverter board?
What happens exactly if you boot the notebook in normal mode?
Did you try to boot the notebook using a Live CD (Win PE or Linux live CD)?
I would also recommend you to check if you new OS installation is possible.
The safe mode is just a test environment and the system does not access all hardware recourses using safe mode.
So theoretically the issue could be related to faulty hardware or system problems.

Upgraded to osx10.8 and only works in safe mode
