WARNING: You MUST backup your data before doing anything to your computer

99.99% of the time, problems you see on this board can be solved by a prudent backup plan. Lost data files, hard drive failures, testing for hardware issues, testing for software issues, misplaced data files, incompatible applications, failed software installs, hard drives which are too full, bad directories, bad permissions, corrupt files, all can be solved, if you had one thing: A backup plan which included at least two copies of your most essential files when they were in good condition. With all of the above conditions, testing for the condition's severity requires a backup be present, as numerous conditions have similar symptoms, which if they weren't present when you last made your backup, you'd be able to just recover your backup and everything would be good. No software maintenance program can replace the need to backup your data, as no software maintenance program can test for all the conditions which may need you to recover your data. Only backup software alone can let you recover yourself back to a working condition. Does it have to be an external hard drive? Not necessarily, even a printed copy of your data, a burnt CD, a flashdrive, or a remotely saved backup is better than nothing. So before you install anything, connect any new hardware, or risk yourself to any software maintenance program, backup your data. You'll be glad you did.
And feel free to ask in here what's the most convenient way to backup your data given your needs and abilities. Everyone can backup their data. So the only reason you wouldn't is if you have a prediliction for wanting the pain of losing your data.

Hi a brody,
Thanks for this suggestion.
While I understand the sentiment behind this tip and the need to backup, the tone reminds me of Chicken Little. It may read better as a suggestion of best practices (and why) rather than the extreme warning portrayed. The strong language also makes it sound like an opinion rather than objective suggestions.
The Title reads like, "OMG, don't touch your computer without a backup."
99.99% of the time problems on the board can't be fixed with a backup. Some are how to questions, for some a backup would help them recover from the issue but not fix it.
It may also help to break up the long paragraph. (Is there such a thing as a run on paragraph? )
Remember, for User Tips we are looking for concise, easy to understand Tips that in general can be read and understood by a wide audience.
Take care,
Nubz

  • I recently got an IMacSnow(G4) and installed a larger HD.  When I try to load 10.4 it gives me a message:  "You must update your computer's firmware before installing MacOS".  Never saw this one before.  What gives?

  • Did anyone else have a 'you must restart your computer' screen today?

    I leave my imac on 24/7. This am, I switched from my wifes user profile to miine, checked my email, got done, closed mail, and was going to open my browser (firefox) and the screen dimmed (like before going to screen saver) and then a gray message box about 3" X 4" with the circular power icon image in light gray background came on in the center of the screen, saying "You must restart your computer-please hold down your power button until computer shuts down (paraphrased). Nothing was going to allow me to do anything else (no cursor movement with the mouse, esc did nothing)so I powered down, and let it restart. Seems ok, I just want to know if anyone else has ever seen or experienced this happening. What entity would facilitate this restart? Apple? My ISP? Some spyware?

    OK....I used the 'maintenance' utility, and ran scripts, repaired permissions, etc. When my computer restarted, I went to my wifes profile, ran 'disk utility' to repair permissions on her profile. Then I opened her browser and cleared her data, ie search cache, website cache, everything except her logon data. When that was done, I went back to my profile, and opened the browser. I'm at that point now, and all seems to be well. But then it seemed well when this first occured. Any guesses as to why this happened or what might have caused it to happen? A program conflict? A visit to a data-mining webpage? I know that some will tell you (or me) that macs are supposedly immune to viral or malware attacks, but there also are those who will argue that it is impossible to protect any computer, even a mac, from all infections. So, part curiosity and part pessimism create a curiosity. Any input would help.
    Thanks.

  • Installation keeps coming up to 'You must reboot your computer"

    Hi,
    I am trying to do a clean rebuild of my MacBook Pro from the Install DVD (OS 10.5.6) that came with the computer. My problem is that when I follow the instructions and boot from the DVD, Holding C or Alt to select boot drive, the drive spins for a little bit and always comes up to gray and black, multilingual screen saying "You must reboot your computer" I've tried this multiple times but I never get to the "Install OSX screen and select destination drive". I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I've searched a number of Mac savvy sites but no help. Thanks in advance. I've read a number of other posts asking why I would want to do a clean install and I would just rather restart with the computer the way it was the day it was new.

    You're getting a classic kernel panic. See

  • Have downloaded Mountain Lion on my 2010 Mac Mini. Now when starting up, after a while I get a message that says, "You must restart your computer." I do that but get the same message again and again. Any ideas? Thanks!

    I am having issues trying to start up with Mountain Lion on my 2010 Mac Mini. Here's the scenario:
    1) After starting up, I get the usual gray screen with Apple logo.
    2) After a few minutes, a darker gray screen scrolls down and in the middle of this is a black dialogue box with reversed (white) text. This text, in multiple languages, reads: "You need to restart your computer." Then it goes on to instruct on how to shut it down and restart it.
    3) I follow this instruction, but get the same dialogue box over and over agin.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks and best wishes.

    If you can't boot in the usual way, try a safe boot. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows: 
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
     During startup, you’ll see a progress bar, and then the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in 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. Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all. Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is on a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. If you're able to boot, launch the Console application in any of the following ways: ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid. Select the most recent panic log under System Diagnostic Reports. Post the entire contents — the text, please, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header and body of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don't post shutdownStall, spin, or hang reports.

  • When installing new software, remember you MUST backup your data.

    This is from my own personal FAQ on my own website, but given the number of people who find themselves in a lurch with Snow Leopard, I had to post this again as a reminder for those not privy enough to find it by internet search engines, or look through this board.
    It is not a question of if data will be lost, but when. User error, data corruption, hardware failure, bugs in installers all play a part in potential disasters that only a backup can recover from. While you don't have the viruses or worms on the Mac like you do in the Windows world, it should be no excuse to not backup. These incidents can happen at anytime, and frequently without any warning.
    User error is the number one cause of lost data. You drag a file to the trash without meaning to, or use a keyboard shortcut used to send a file to the trash, or take a file out of its prescribed location, and the system gets broke. Before moving preinstalled folders or adding files to preinstalled folders, know what files belong where. Ask if you are unsure. And only start moving files once you know your critical files are backed up. In addition, if you lose track of files, and their location, having a backup you know where it exists will help you find those files which you lost. Manage your backups so that information isn't lost by accident.
    There are many disk utilities which claim to help keep your hard disk in good shape, and some are better than others, but if you don't have a backup, any of them could actually be worse than the backup software to your data as a simple power failure during use of one of those utilities can make the data get lost forever. Data corruption is probably the number two cause of losing data.
    Hardware failure. Eventually all hard disks, tape drives, CDs, DVDs, Zip drives, Zip disks, floppies, tapes, and even drive controllers fail. Hopefully most will not happen during the time between now and when you can afford your next computer, but it could happen. Getting an external source to backup your data to will lessen the risk of any one component making your data get lost forever. Whether it is an external hard drive, CD burner, tape drive, or a zip drive, the more backups of your data you have, the better off you'll be. Some will even say an off site backup is a good idea since a disaster could happen to your home or office that ruins the media on site.
    And then there are installers which without warning will remove different versions of programs, and in a few cases have been known to remove all the data on the system by accident.
    Always have at least two copies of your data at all times. As the loss of one data source due to any of the above failures means you will need the second backup to recover your data.
    And one copy should also be in a remote location in case something happens to the home location whether it is theft, accidental damage, or natural disaster.
    In the meantime if you aren't able to make the investment in backup software or hardware at least make yourself a hard copy of all your documents by printing them out. While not as easy to recover from as digital backups, at least you won't be trying to create the data from scratch.
    Apple includes Time Machine with Mac OS X 10.5 and 10.6.
    Apple includes a variety of methods of burning discs:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=search&src=support_site.results.disambigu ation&q=Burn%20a%20CD%20or%20DVD%20using%20Mac%20OS%20X
    Shirt-Pocket sells:
    http://www.shirt-pocket.com/SuperDuper/SuperDuperDescription.html
    Apple also warns one in the documentation that comes in PDF on the installation DVD, but it does appear that some don't other to read this.
    Data recovery techniques exist, but none are 100% reliable, and some can cost thousand of U.S. dollars if you have failing hardware. So don't think for one moment backing up is optional. The day will come when you wish you had one.

    Synopsis
    Problem: Endless Black Box "You Must Restart You Computer..." loop
    Cause: Printing certain documents (so far one specific pdf file and a text file) through the wireless network at school initiates the problem and then all wireless networks perpetuate the problem thereafter
    Steps Taken: Unplugged wireless network - this allows me to log in
    -Warning box about fatal crash appears but "Send Report" does not produce any data
    -Restarting wireless after login causes no problems
    -Waking computer from sleep with wireless enabled causes black box to reappear
    -Permissions repair did not resolve anything
    -A complete reinstall solved everything until the other day when printing initiated the problem again, after having successfully printed numerous documents wirelessly over the past month
    Other strange things my computer does:
    -Makes very quite chirping sound with every key stroke (except arrows)
    -Usually sits at the grey startup screen with the spinning wheel for a long time and then speeds through login process
    -Only restarts successfully every second time after a hard-restart (the first time it just sits there spinning endlessly)
    More Details
    Problem: Black box appears notifying me "You need to restart your computer" (Kernel panic I believe?) I restart my computer once, and it sits forever at the grey screen with the little wheel spinning. I hard-restart my computer a second time and it logs me in and then the black box reappears... and then the whole process starts over again..
    Circumstances: I had this exact same problem occur about a month ago and it happened again under the exact same circumstances. I recently installed a Korean wireless router, some other foreigner had left behind, in my school here in Korea. The first time it happened I was trying to print PDF document wirelessly from my classroom and the black box appeared. Then the whole endless loop began...
    That night I tried to fix the problem at home. I was able to log into safe mode but the endless loop persisted when I tried a normal log in normally again. I finally did a reinstall from my external drive using the most up to date image I had created with Carbon Copy Cloner.
    The following day I went to school and couldn't resist trying to reprint the suspect document. My freshly installed computer crashed and I was ****** at myself for experimenting so early in the day. Then I tried unplugging the wireless router and restarting and it worked! Then I plugged the router back in and everything was running smoothly again.
    Now I have a new problem. If my computer wakes from her sleep with the wireless enabled I get the black box both at school and at home. I'd really like to avoid doing another reinstall... please help!
    Thanks in advance!

    Hey Rich,
    Think my computer healed herself while I was away this weekend
    What I am wondering is if
    a Safe Boot will always get you logged in when the
    other problems are occurring.
    This question prompted me to try starting up in safe mode. I wanted to make sure the problem still persisted so I:
    1. Plugged in ethernet cable
    2. Turned on Airport
    3. Ensured WAN was functioning
    4. Shut Down my computer with just like I used to, with all network connections enabled
    5. Power ON -> Flawless start up, no black box!
    6. Put computer to sleep -> Woke up -> No black box!
    Weird eh?
    So the only way I can answer your question is based on previous experience. Logging in using safe mode did work the three or four times I used it the first time this problem occurred.
    I did nothing to my computer since this error, no updates, no permissions repairs and no sudo daily, weekly, monthly house keeping. When classes were finished Friday night, I came home, put my computer to sleep with Airport off and ethernet unplugged and the following morning I shut her down, hid her in my sock drawer, and left for the weekend!
    My only explanation is that somehow reconnecting to the wireless network at school allowed my computer to resolve unresolved issue it was having with that network, the same network that instigated the problem. That's my best guess.
    Thanks for taking the time to try and help me out with this issue. The clarification you sought definitely helped us get a more refined picture of the problem. I'm sure this issue will rear its ugly head again in the near future... that is, unless you or anyone else have some ideas about what I could do to prevent this from happening again.
    -Greg
    FU,
    Here's the info you wanted:
    -Only restarts successfully every second time after a hard-restart (the first time it just sits there spinning endlessly)
    This might indicate a dying backup battery (the one that keeps your PRAM healthy)
    My PowerBook isn't even a year old yet, could it be that my battery has died this quickly? Hmmm, another thing I have experienced is that my Mac wont wake from sleeping if I have let the power get so low that she has been forced to sleep.
    1. "10 minutes of battery power remaining" box appears
    2. Battery depletes and computer enters sleep mode by default
    3. I go home and plug computer into power adaptor
    4. Computer fails to wake up no matter how long I wait -->power adaptor light does indicate the battery is charging
    5. I am forced to unplug my computer, remove the battery and hold down the power switch.
    6. Power on -> Date and time settings have changed and need to be set again
    Does this sound like the symptom of a low backup battery?
    make sure that "Set time & date automatically" in the Date & Time System >Preferences is unchecked.
    I've never tried this so I'll give it a shot and see if performance improves.
    now it seems almost obvious: 99% looks like a network fault and nothing >to do with your Tiger installation...
    Perhaps, I'm no networking specialist, but I have flawless network performance until printing some random document at school over wireless triggers the whole series of events I mentioned above. My home router has never triggered this problem... although I have never tried to print wirelessly at home because I have no printer.
    1) how big is your network? (how many wireless and how many wired Macs >access your Router)
    At Home: Very small, 1 PowerBook 64 and one iBook G3
    At School: Small: Two Windows machines and my PowerBook G4. Wireless box is plugged into the existing router that was there. I have windows printer sharing checked in the "sharing" section of "system prefs"
    2) make/model of your router
    D-Link DI-624 (Home)
    Some crazy old dilapidated korean box (at school)
    3) how do you configure your router (via the browser (Safari) or via a >utility/application provided by the vendor)?
    I believe I configure it manually... I access the router via web browser and configure my settings
    4) make sure DHCP is set to Off/Disabled and set your IPs for both your >Macs and the Router manually
    Check, Check
    5) If you're familiar with network settings like hosts file, post back your >configuration / make sure your IP addresses are assigned correctly
    Not familiar
    btw your PowerBook has an AirPort Extreme card or a 3rd party Wireless card?
    AirPort Extreme card
    Thanks for trying to help FU, hope this information helps you.

  • Need help with MacBook. "You must restart your computer..."

    So I just got a new MBP 13" back in April. Then a few weeks ago, I started getting these "You must restart" crashes out of nowhere. They weren't really specific to any task I was doing, but I noticed it happened most either while browsing the internet, or directly when opening the lid after it slept over night. It was just a bunch of random Kernal Panics that didn't really point to one specific thing. I suspected Google Chrome, but after an uninstall (deleting complete Chrome folder) and reinstall, still happened. Then just removed Chrome altogether and went to Safari, still happened.
    Went to the genius bar and they did a few things that didn't work and said that they wanted to do a fresh install next. I hadn't backed up my system, so I bought an external, picked up my MBP, and took it home and did it my self. I backed up, then did a full reformat of the hard drive and did a fresh install of Lion. Restored my stuff from my backup. All was well for almost 2 days. Then bam, it happens again.
    So I thought maybe I may have restored whatever software problem was there before I reformatted? But then I decided to test the RAM I put in it. About a week after I bought the MBP, I upgraded to 8GB. Got it from Newegg. Here is the specific RAM I got: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820233215. Did a memtest over night, passed! But was still getting the problem. So I took the RAM out and put the factory RAM back in, and the problem hasn't happened since. And it's been about 5 days. Before, it was happening everyday, sometimes up to 3 times a day.
    So I guess it's safe to assume that the RAM was the issue? Even though it passed the memtest? Only thing is, how do I go about getting them to warranty it? What do I tell them? Do you guys think that was even the problem or do you think it will happen again?
    I can't get the apple hardware test to work. First, my computer shipped with no DVD's, so it has to use the internet. When it tells me to select my wireless network, my network isn't even showing up on the list. I tried typing it in manually and that didn't work either. Tried rebooting my router. Didn't work. So I tried using MyWi from my iPhone and that showed up immediately. But after it connected, it did nothing. It just displayed the grey spinning globe. Then gave me an error "apple.com/support -1005D" which gives me absolutely nothing when I search it.
    The weird part is that when I'm using the computer normally, it connects to my network immediately upon booting. Why is the internet retore function not able to see my network?
    I remember when I was trying to do the fresh install, my network wasn't showing up immediately either. It took about a minute to show up, while all my neighbors' networks were showing immediately. It also takes a long time for my Mac to see my Windows PC's on the network after it boots or wakes from sleep.

    Definitely has to be the RAM.  Reinstalled the Corsair 8GB Ram about 24 hours ago and the problem has already happened twice back to back, where as it hadn't happened for a week when I reinstalled the factory RAM.  Here are the two new errors.  The second one happened right after rebooting from the first crash.  Still can't get AHT to run.  Getting a -1006D error.

    I accidentally cancelled adownltoad after purchasing. when I try to start he download again, this appears.

    There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
    The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
    If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
    Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
    Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school enviroment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
