  • Why Macbook won't start after unsuccessful software update (BSoD) ?

    My Macbook is not starting after an unsuccessful attempt to do a software update.
    There were 5 updates available but none would work, so I downloaded a couple of updates individually from Apple's website.
    But these individual updates did not work as well and an error message said that the digital certificate may have been tampered with.
    After retrying an iTunes update, the message that I needed to restart my computer appeared.
    Since then on every start up attempt, I get the Apple icon and then the same message to restart my computer appears.
    I know what the system looks like with a HDD failure and this is not it.
    Clearly a software issue has caused a hardware failure somehow.
    I am wanting to know if anyone else has experienced this or if there is a recent bug or glitch within the software update process that is causing the problem.
    Thanks in advance for your assistance.

    After obtaining and installing another HD (250 GB), it appears that something is quickly returning me to the same place.
    The time lost within installing the HD and reinstalling the various software programs is becoming a little too high for me.
    I bought and installed Leopard to avoid going through anything Tiger may have had that brought my Macbook to its knees.
    But now here I am again less than 1 month after installing the new HD and installing Leopard with a Macbook that simply will not work.
    To top it all off, I bought an external HD to use Time Machine today and never have had the opportunity to backup everything.
    Any ideas are definitely appreciated in advance.
    My biggest concern right now is that it appears that the Random Shutdown Syndrome (RSS) either has returned or something is allowing the temperature to escalate and overheating a board or something internally.

  • Why does itunes crash upon opening after the software update?

    Why does itunes crash upon opening after the software update? Everything worked fine until I decided to update this morning and as soon as the computer rebooted, the error message appeared.  Is there anything available to fix this?

    I answered the same question in a similar post.  It's all to do with the wireless sync. 
    I used the following method to stop iTunes from constantly restarting -
    Open task manager
    Select the 'Processes' tab.
    Look for 'iTunesHelper.exe'
    Select 'iTunesHelper.exe'  then click on 'end process'
    Hope this helps.

  • Macbook will not boot up after running Software Update (Couldn't fix it)

    Hi there,
    I also have been experiencing some problems after running Software Update (Security update + Java) a couple of days ago. Similarly to Jandaf (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9000023) I have only the gray start up screen + Apple logo + gear wheel constantly rotating. Based on the information provided in this forum I have tried some procedures which didn't solved my problem so far. Below I describe I have tried:
    1) I have booted using the installation DVD and run the disk utility. When performing the First Aid/Verify Disk I found some errors ('Invalid node structure'). But I couldn't fix the problem using disk repair (same problem 'Invalid node structure' 'Volume check failed'.
    2) I also tried to boot in single user mode (command + s) to run fsck -fy. It didn't work. I got the following message (last 4 lines):
    CSRHIDTTransitionDriver::probe: -s
    CSRHIDTTransitionDriver::probe: booting in single user .. do not match
    Extension "com.apple.driver.AppleUSBTCKeyboard" has no kernel dependency.
    Extension "com.apple.driver.AppleUSBTCEventDriver" has no kernel dependency.
    3) When trying to boot in safe mode. I got a grey screen with the following message:
    'You need to restart your computer. Hold down the power button for several seconds or press the Restart button".
    4) I also tried to 'Archieve & Instal'. Again no success. After reading the DVD the action is terminated because some errors (does not specify).
    5) I also tried the 'German Medicine' (http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8728797#8728797) (i.e. Connect the 'problematic MacBook' to my old G4 via firewire and reinstall the 2009-001 update). Again no success. The G4 cannot mount the MacBook hardrive.
    I don't know what to do any more.
    A) Can I resuscitate my old system? If yes how?
    B) If not, can I at least save the data I have in my old HD?
    C) Is it possible to format and reinstall the OS or is this this computer doomed?
    Apologies for writing so many questions but I'm really freaking out!
    Thank you.
    B.

    Hi BDAqua,

  • IPhoto app was deleted after doing an update

    My iphoto app was deleted after doing an update. Lost over 1,000 pictures and videos. My mac originally came with iphoto so I did not have to purchase that app but now in the app store it is saying I have to pay $15 for the app! Don't know what happened!

    You did check in the Applications folder, right? Go the the App Store and look in the Updates section to see if the 9.5.1 is listed there for just an update and not purchase.

  • Safari Hangs After Installing Software Update

    I did a software update a few days ago, which included a security update (PowerMac G5 2.0GHz running Leopard). After that, I was having trouble connecting to the internet (everything said I was connected except that I couldn't actually connect). That seems to be fixed, but now Safari launches and hangs when trying to load the home page (Apple's start page), requiring me to force quit it.
    I tried changing firewall setting and deleting the plist file, but nothing seems to work. Any ideas would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    Ok, I tried using OnyX, and no change. I am, however, not able to connect at all to the internet. This problem also started right after the software update, but it seemed to only last for a little while. Now, whenever trying to connect to my iDisk, I get an error code -5016, saying I can't connect to the server.
    It was working fine before the software update, and my iBook G4 also had problems after it (but it was only a check in the firewall settings), so I suspect some settings were changed in the security update, but I don't know what.

  • After finish software updates IOS 7 in my iphone 4s its showing connect to itunes after i connect with itunes its showing 40 hours remaining for update

    after finish software updates IOS 7 in my iphone 4s its showing connect to itunes after i connect with itunes its showing 40 hours remaining for update. But still not finish even after every 30-45 minutes showing error. What i will do please guide me. I'm connecting my device with my acer laptop windows 7 professional.

    firstly thanks for quick reply.
    sorry sir,
    i am confused in last line you wrote,
    " This will erase the phone but you will be given an option at the end to restore to an existing backup, if you have one."
    i did not understand last sentence  -  if i have one? you mean to say if i have data or not in my iphone?
    i have many pictures, messages, contacts which are very much important.
    so will it be all restore and will be backup again in my iphone if i restore?
    i am extremely sorry to interrupt you again.
    waiting for your quick reply
    thanks and regards,

    I Have the same issue on a brand new iPad mini 2. My battery is only lasting up to 5 hours. I went on chat with Apple last night and they said my battery is fine and its a Safari issue. I'm literally losing 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tried recalibrating my battery, signing out of iCloud, shutting off all locations, turning off background app refresh, restoring network settings, restoring all, and finally restoring from iTunes with no luck. This is just awful. I got this iPad so I could use it on my long flight for a trip I have coming up, and unfortunately, it's not going to last that long, plus I'm concerned about how many times i will be recharging my battery because of this since battery's do have a life cycle dependent on the number of charges. This is frustrating and needs to be fixed ASAP and addressed by Apple.
    By the way, Apple told me to bring my device to the Apple Store because it's still under warranty. That's great and all, but I'm going to waste my time if there is no fix for this issue.
    Ok so you want Apple to address the problem, but yet you don't want to take it to them just in case they can't fix it? What if they can fix it? Complaining here certainly won't fix it.

  • ITunes won't open after downloading software update.  Macbook Pro OSX10.6.8  Simple solution?

    iTunes won't open after downloading software update.  Macbook Pro OSX10.6.8  Simple solution?  And by the way, this is apparently a common problem and Apple has completely failed to warn in advance or offer a quick straightforward solution - used to be a good company, but it's becoming just another crappy screw-the-consumer corporation.

    It would help to know versions here.  I'm guessing your update put an older version of something into a place where a newer version of something iTunes put in there existed.  Updating an earlier OSX version to 10.6.8 is still only updating to system software that was issued several years ago.  If you are running some slightly newer version of iTunes issued subsequent to 10.6.8 and you just updated to 10.6.8 you may have put in an older version of something iTunes uses.  Anyway, I'm guessing here until we know exactly what you did.

    my airport time capsule will no longer allow our iPhones or vizio smart tvs to connect to it, though my iPad air mac mini and mac air connect fine. Why is this? does a recent software update have anything to do with it?

    What model is your TC? What is the firmware?
    I recommend you do a factory reset and use short names.. not apple recommended names.
    Short.. 2-20 characters .. less than 10 even better.
    No spaces.
    Pure alphanumeric.
    Set fixed channels for 2.4ghz wireless.. test with 11, 6, 1 at least.
    That often helps.. if not and is old, ie Gen1-4 go back to 7.6.1 firmware which is far more solid.

  • Macbook will not boot up after running Software Update

    My MacBook will not boot up after running Software Update (Security update + Java?) earlier today. I have only the gray start up screen + Apple logo + gear wheel constantly rotating. I have tried restarts several times and tried to start up from my original system DVD - this makes no difference.
    I called Apple support, tried resetting the power and PRAM - still no difference. He had no knowledge of other problems reported; although I note recent post may have same issue.
    I cannot get an appointment at my Apple Store before Monday.
    Any suggestions?

    Still no success. When I hold down the option key when powering up I get the hard disk icon plus arrowhead (only). When clicking the arrowhead it goes to the gray screen + apple logo+ rotating gearwheel.
    This happens both with DVD in slot and without DVD. the DVD image is not coming up on screen. When I start up without DVD the hard disk icon appears promptly. When I start with DVD in the DVD is spinning for a short period before the hard disk icon appears. On clicking the arrowhead to hard disk icon the DVD spins again for a while then stops. Apart from the DVD spinning, both situations result in gray screen + apple logo+ rotating gearwheel.
