TS1440 Flashing circle prohibition sign, Mac will not start. Help!

Hi there,
I need some guidance can some techie please help me!
My Mac book pro, 10.6 will not start, a flashing prohibition sign and a folder with a question mark appears on my screen.
I have shut down and tried thePRAM start up but nothing. I have snow leopard disk, should I re install. Will I lose all my data?
I recently updated iTunes and a day later my computer crashed. Any help would be appreciated.
Love,
Kind stranger

If your machine was upgraded to OS X 10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountian Lion, then DO NOT PROCEED!
The 10.6 disks cannot be used for 10.7 or 10.8, if that's the case, then let me know as a different method is involved.
On the second screen booted from the 10.6 disk, under Utilities menu is Disk Utility.
Select your entire internal boot drive on the left, it should have a name and a size.
Click First Aid > Repair Disk and Repair Permissions.
If the drive doesn't appear on the left, it may mean it's dead or there is a broken connection between the drive and the computer.
If Disk Utility says "can't repair, backup and erase and install" then the drive works, it's that it can't repair the file structure, likely because of a failed sector on the drive (may be natural or caused by shock or failing drive)
However you don't have to erase if it says to do so, if the drive works mechanically the data can be recovered.
The drive may work fine if removed from the machine as well if it's not showing up on the left in Disk Utility.
If the drive doesn't work, then the data can be recovered if it wasn't Filevaulted, but the platter dissection required is expensive.
My computer is not working, is my personal data lost?
If the drive is repaired, do it again.
After the drive is repaired, Quit Disk Utiltiy and select Reset Password from the Utilties menu.
Don't change the password if your just repairing user permissions, instead select the drive at top and the account your having issues with.
See an area labeled Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs. Click the button.
After that, quit and your in the OS X install screen, select the boot volume and click Install, this will overwrite OS X 10.6 with a fresh copy.
Quit and restart, then when you log in hit Apple Menu > Software Update until clear, you should be on 10.6.8
Some third party programs may not work, you will have to reinstall them from original sources and make sure they are compliant with 10.6.8

Hi, ATPMolloy.
I certainly understand your frustration and will do my best to help. I see you have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes with no change in results. I have attached an article below that specifically troubleshoots this issue that you are experiencing.

Mac will not start. HELP!!

my 17" imac early 2006 will not start it came on yesterday with a fail screen and telling me to hold the power key to restart once i did that the cd drive was going made and no screen and the power light stays on. i have tried holding down the option key cmd+PR and this does nothing. no apple start up tune just a power light and a sound like the hard drive getting ready to start. any help would be great. wanna get fixed before my pc mates give me hard time as i always rave about macs.

Hi
It sounds like you are experiencing kernel panic, if you see that grey screen with multi languages. The cause is usually hardware, possibly RAM. Have a look at this link. It may help you.
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html
It mentions Tiger, but I think you could work with that.
I hope you can get things fixed before your mates come around.

3 year old Mac will not start up, help?

My 3year old Mac will not start up, just sits there and spins. Any suggestions on corrective steps?

Kurt412,
which version of OS X is installed on your MacBook Pro?

Internal Hard Drive will not mount -- need help!

My Mac Dual 450 has been a constant problem since I installed Tiger several weeks ago. There have been crashes every day. Disk First Aid did not help. Then I discovered I had TechTool Deluxe which I had gotten from Apple a few months ago. It has diagnostics for just about everything you can think of. I tried it. Big mistake.
Everything came out OK except it said there were some bad blocks, and an invalid BTree node size 8.0 (whatever that is). I tried to get it to repair the HD and it said it could not, that the HD was not mounted (I had booted from TechTool disk). Then I tried to reboot from the internal HD and I got a big bad black box saying that I had to restart. I tried that many times and kept getting the message. I booted from the Apple Tiger install disk and tried to run Disk First Aid on my HD but it said there were problems and Disk First Aid could not correct them because the HD was not mounted. I tried this and the TechTools Disk many times. Same result.
I then booted from an external system 9.2.2 HD and tried to use the Disk First Aid on that. Same result: it said the Macintosh HD (my internal) was not mounted so Disk First Aid could not repair it.
I have tried everything I could think of (option-boot, C-boot, etc) and nothing will let me boot from the internal HD or even mount it. I spent quite a bit of time with AppleCare rep and he could not succeed in getting the HD to mount.
He suggested either trying Disc Warrior which I do not have, or possibly resetting the PMU on the logic board and he sent me instructions for that, which seem ominous to say the least. And I doubt that it would solve my problem since the computer sees the HD, it just can't mount it. Resetting the PMU seems to be for computers that can't see the HD and won't start. But mine does just fine with other start-up disks.
Are there any suggestions on what else I can try? Is there a program that can be downloaded that mounts hard drives?
My Mac Dual 450 has 1.25 gb of RAM.
Thanks for any help. I need it fast.

Thank you for your suggestions and your continuing interest in trying to solve my problem. I rebooted with CMD + S and got the black screen with white text. Unfortunately I could not type anything on it. I typed /sbin/fsck -y and hit return. Nothing showed on the screen. I waited awhile in case this was one of those situations where it is hidden. But nothing happened. I tried the whole sequence a couple more times and same thing: I was unable to type anything that would show up on the screen.
Am I missing something here? I tried typing holding down various keys and could not get anything to register.
For what it is worth, the last line that showed on the screen is "panic. We are hanging here..."
I do not think that is related to what I typed since it was there when the screen first appeared, but could it nonetheless have somethng to do with my computer or hard drive?
I am right now installing system X.4 onto an external HD. If I can get that to boot and work OK, I can just use that for awhile until I get the internal either replaced or repaired.
If you see my previous posts, I had a devil of a time installing system X.4 to begin with. Maybe my HD was troubled all this time??? Or could there be some other underlying problem with my Dual 450? I suppose I will find out when I try to boot from the external.
Incidentally, I have an external HD with 9.2.2 on it and have had no trouble booting from it or using it.
Thanks again for your help.

HP Windows will not start up HELP !!!

I have my HP laptop (Windows Vista 32-bit) since 2 yrs ago, I used to format it myself, then once it failed to recover using Recovery Manager and Windows couldn't start...
I sent it to a foolish PC repairer, he removed recovery partition, he changed the Windows Vista into Windows 7 (64-bit), it was awful... nothing functioned any good...
then I sent it to a good company (not HP Company, cuz I'm from Lebanon and I'm not sure if there's a branch for them in here)
they replaced the BIOS (I think) of my laptop by the BIOS of another laptop (same product), to save time of Installation of Windows and Fixing the whole situation...
however it's Vista 64-bit; recovery partition is back but not protected, drivers are working properly but not as they used to be, but Recovery Manager DOES NOT WORK (32-bit, even after downloading the software Recovery Manager for Vista 64-bit, it couldnt be installed)...
I wanted to fix the TouchPad scroll (Synaptics) by removing its driver, so I restarted the laptop and it won't start up back again... (THIS IS THE PROBLEM)
it says: Windows Fails to Start, in a black screen...
& it says: Insert Windows Installations discs and gives instructions... Info: The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccesible
I have Recovery discs that I made myself but they won't work, I press F11 on start-up and it shows me the same screen as described above
I can't make order any recovery discs cuz I didn't find an option for that, Lebanon was not mentioned in the countries, in which I can order the correct recovery discs)
Any suggestions to have my old laptop things back or at least the new laptop things back?
such as downloading recovery software, and burning it on discs? If so, give some direct links please
I changed order of bootup from HDD to CD/DVD ROM but things didn't work
or perhaps I should send it back to that company... the things in Lebanon are awful...
I know the post is large but please I need HELP !!!
THANKS !

Hi,
This process will allow you to make a Vista Repair Disc. This is not an installation disc but will allow you to use the Vista Recovery Console that is available on retail versions of Vista.
Download the file on the link below. Make sure you download the correct version.
Vista 32 bit
Vista 64 bit
This is a zipped file. If you don't have an extraction utility installed, download and install 7-Zip, when installed, right click the zipped folder, select Extract Files and then click Ok. You should now see another folder containing the ISO file.
You will need software to burn the ISO to a CD. If you don't have this type on software installed, download and install ImgBurn and use this to burn the ISO to a CD.
Once you have created the Vista Repair Disc, follow the guide on the link below to see if this will repair your installation.

StarSuite will not start up - help! Changed paths from one drive to another

Hi all,
I am using: StarSuite 8
On an: ASUS eePC 900
OS: Windows XP
This is my partner's computer. StarSuite 8 came with it the machine, but as yet she has not even gotten a chance to use it.
It has two hard drives:
C: drive is 4GB (with 500MG free), D: drive is 7.5GB (with 6.3GB free)
Windows, StarSuite 8, and everything else that came with the machine are all on the C: drive (the smaller one), which is why only 500MG are free (she has deleted everything else that wasn't an expensive program or the operating system; most of the 4GB is Windows XP as far as we can tell).
Previously, when she opened StarSuite 8 (swriter), when a new file would be opened, an error message appeared that said something along the lines of "Not enough disk space free" - i don't recall the exact wording.
As there where over 6 gigabytes free, we assumed the problem was that StarSuite 8 was somehow being dependant on the mostly used-up C: drive.
So i went into, i think,
Tools -> Options
...and found a section to change the paths for the folders that StarSuite 8 seemed to be saving to, drawing templates from, etc.
I found those folders on the C: drive, under "Documents and Settings", copied them (without making any changes at all), saved the copies to the D: drive, replicated the whole file path.
Then i went back to Tools -> Options and whatever that section is to change the paths. I edited them to point to the D drive rather than the C drive, to my newly created and copied-over files, the paths now looked something like this:
D:Documents and Setting/Kathryne/Application Data/StarSuite 8/User/ <all the various folders, copied exactly from it's equivalent on the C drive.
I thought if StarSuite 8 looked at the D drive instead of the C drive, it would stop bringing up the error message that kept claiming there was "insufficient disk space". The only thing i changed about any path was that the letter "C" became "D", and the default folder to which files are saved became "D:Documents and Setting/Kathryne" rather than "My Documents" (because My Documents is on the C: drive).
I then created and saved an swriter file, as a test to make sure everything was working, and it saved fine. I can still see the file sitting there under "D:Documents and Setting/Kathryne".
Anyway, my partner (Kathryne, as you can guess), just fired up her eePC, tried to open StarSuite 8 - and nothing happened. It will not open.
So she right-clicked on a .doc file, selected "Open With swriter", and it worked - the file was opened up.
But you can't do anything on it. When you hover the cursor over any of the menu buttons, it just turns into a little hourglass and does nothing. Task Manager says that it is "Not Responding", and it will stay like that for ages. It doesn't work at all. I cannot get back into the "Tools" menu to change all the file paths back to their default settings - it just won't let me.
My normal response would be to uninstall and reinstall, and just erase all the changes i've made that way. But this is an eePC - there is no optical drive on this machine, it was all pre-installed, and uninstalling StarSuite 8 would leave us with no way to get it back.
Can anybody help me, please? I had no idea changing the paths might make the program non-functional, especially as i copied all of the path folders over without making any changes to them. I thought at the worst i would be able to go back into it and change the paths back to default; and like i said, i saved a test file with it after making the changes, and it seemed to work fine. But apparently I'm an idiot.
Can anyone rescue me from this guilt?

1) - it isn't.
2) I haven't been. Tried it just then to see if anything different happened, but no.
3) It does. I justdid that, and it seems to have solved the problem.
It opened up, ultra-fast (faster than MS Office ever has...), and it generated multiple error messages (presumably to let me know that it couldn't find the files it keeps in those folders?):
"Error loading BASIC of document file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Kathryne/Application%Data/StarSuite8/user/basic/script.xlc/:
General Error.
General input/output error."
"Error loading BASIC of document file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Kathryne/Application%Data/StarSuite8/user/basic/dialog.xlc/:
General Error.
General input/output error."
"Error loading BASIC of document file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Kathryne/Application%Data/StarSuite8/user/basic/dialogs.xli/:
General Error.
General input/output error."
After clicking "Okay" to each error message, i typed a short sentence in the file, and successfully saved it (to the C: drive, even), without seeing any trace of the "not enough space" type messages that used to come up. And after closing the program and opening it again, i haven't seen these messages reappear.
4) I will tell let her know that it is recommended!
5) She did this last night, and has been using it in the meantime. I think she still wants StarSuite 8, but she is aware of OpenOffice.
(6) - I haven't done this, as your suggestion (3) seems to have fixed it.)
Thank-you very much for the advice and the time you spent in replying, i really appreciate this. Your suggestion seems to have fixed the problem. I am hoping that the error messages listed above won't reappear - i assume that was just the program telling me that the user folders were missing, and that it re-created them soon after? I guess similar messages will appear (and disappear) upon opening Calc and the others, as well.
The original problem - the error messages relating to disk space - has not re-appeared, i have nooo idea why, but all seems fine for now.Thank-you again for your advice! :)

Camera will not open need help

i have the 4th generation ipod touch and i have very few complaints the only thing i can really complain about its that when i try to open up my camera instead of opening up the screen stays black is there anything i can do to stop this from happening

I am trying to open some *.avi files in quicktime, they are from my security camera at home. It will not open them, would anyone be able to help me? It says I need a plugin but it does not tell me which one.
Basically your player is telling you that you need to install the codecs that will play the compressed data within the AVI file.
AVI is a legacy file container in which the tracks of data are interleaved to maintain synchronization. This data can be encoded using many different audio and video codecs. Your problem is to determine which codecs you need for the player you are trying to use and install them if they are available. Failing that, your will either have to play the files in a different player which has the codec support your require built into the app or convert the content to a compression format that is natively compatible with the player you wish to use.
Since you have not stated what platform, operating system, and particular player you are targeting for playback, it is difficult to provide precise instructions for fixing your specific problem at this point. Suggest you try alternative players compatible with your system and platform to see if they will play the files, use a dedicated media information utility to determine the codecs needed for playback, or post a sample file for analysis.

Ringtones will not work - need help!

Ok, so assuming I have done everything right, here is my problem. I have ringtones I downloaded. I set my phone to a special ring tone and I set a contact to have a different ring tone.
When my phone rings from that contact it does not ring with the tone I specified, only the main ring tone I set for my phone.
In my options it says that it will use the ring tone for all calls except important calls and the call from my contact.
I got on the phone with BB tech support at Verizon who had me re-verify how I set my ring tones, and then even had my reset my phone. The phone will still only recognize the one ring tone. It will not ruse the ring tone I set for a particular contact. They think my phone may be defective.
Does anyone know of a setting that may need to be changed somewhere else to get this to work? It should be very easy to get a ring tone to work, but I also know there are so many sub menus and settings on this phone maybe there is another step.
Can some one help?

Premier Elements will not start (needs latest graphic drivers) and HP says I have the latest drivers

AMD says I don't have the latest, but I need to download the latest from HP - and HP says I have the latest.
Is my only option to return the Premier and Photoshop Elements 12?
Is there an alternate mode that allows Premier Elements to work with somewhat older drivers with some degradation in rendering speed?
Is Premier Elements only intended for the latest computers? My laptop is 1.5 years old.
Thanks

selrahcllah
Thanks for the update. Sorry for the delayed response...got detoured.
What is your situation with regard to working in the Premiere Elements 12 workspace Expert, Quick, Expert Guided, or Quick Guided? Are the displays and editing opportunities all functioning at this time?
As for the Elements Organizer thumbnail display of your video....how did you import that file into the Elements Organizer..
a. did you import the video via the Editor workspace and then let the video be automatically placed in the Elements Organizer
or
b. did you import the video in the Elements Organizer via the Elements Organizer's File Menu/Get Photos and Videos from...
What are the video and audio compressions and file extension for this video with the blank Elements Organizer thumbnail?
The first thing to try is deleting the video from Elements Organizer. Then importing the video into a Premiere Elements 12 Expert project to get it into the Elements Organizer by the automatic route.
Do not forget to right click the Elements Organizer thumbnail and select Update Thumbnail when you see the thumbnail blank (no trace of the first frame of the video).
I am trying these non-chip routes right now to get them rule in or out. We could add creating a new catalog and deleting the Elements Organizer setting file, but let us see how you do on the rest in this post.
From what you wrote, it sounded like Adobe Help took you a long way and got Premiere Elements 12 working, for everything but the Elements Organizer thumbnail playback. Give them another chance when it comes to the chips on this. Ask for a supervisor if necessary.
Based on your expected reply to the questions and suggestions above, I think it practical to pursue the above rather than switch to another program at this time.
What do you think?
We will be watching for your progress.
Thanks.

My I Book will not start! Help!

Hi,
My software update showed that there was a security update which I loaded and was told to restart the computer which I did I got as far as the page which told me all the programs were loading with the blue bar (sorry am not very technical!) when it gets right near the end (I think its loading login window) it just doesnt go any further last night I left it for 45 minutes and still nothing! Can anyone help?

Do you have the original install CD's? You may want to run Disk Utility. Or you can start your computer up in Safe Mode, which includes an automatic disk check and repair.
This article should actually walk you thru the steps if you are unfamiliar with this. You will probably have to repair permissions on your disk.

Was advised to delete system configuration file from hard drive and now computer will not start - any help would be appreciated.

Downloaded Yosemite and since then cannot connect to internet or bluetooth mouse - was advised to delete system configuration file from the hard drive and since then cannot start up computer. Any help would be appreciated - cheers.

Boot the MBP with the OPTION+COMMAND+R keys down. The result should be a display showing a revolving globe. By following the instructions, you will be able to reinstall the original OSX. Then you may reinstall Yosemite.
A solid Internet connection will be required.
Ciao.

ITunes will not open, Need help!

i recently had my computer Restored(cleared everything except what came installed on it right out of the box)
before i restored my computer i had both iTunes and quicktime installed and it worked flawlessly. after i restored my computer and reinstalled iTunes/Quicktime ( 7.0.2) it doesnt seem to be opening.
i click on the icon to open iTunes and get a message that says:
iTunes
iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
then it has (- Debug - Send Error Report - Don't Send) as options to do.
i have uninstalled itunes and quicktime about 3 times and still having this issue... please help!
Tried :run msconfig--and still no help
if anyone has any options for me PLEASE email me at: [email protected]
-Dell Inspiron 2200 (notebook)
-Windows xp professional
Windows Windows XP Pro

thanks for the help....
after searching for about another half hour i came across this post.. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=800151&tstart=135
i followed the directions in here and then i finally got it. after you install the quicktime stand alone version, check and make sure it works as stated in that post... then install the iTunes. when i then opened itunes it said that i had a previous version of quicktime and that iTunes requires the newer version of quicktime.
- go to control pannel add/remove programs then scroll down to quicktime
- there should be two(2)Quicktime programs installed.
- click "click here for support information"
- then you should see which version of Quicktime is installed---do this to both of the quicktimes installed.
- whichever has the lower version number ex: 7.0.1 and 7.0.3... delete the 7.0.1 version.
- after deletion then go to the quicktime version that you did not uninstall-in the example i used (7.0.3) click -CHANGE- then -REPAIR- on the following window that repairs.
this should then repair the version that is installed so that iTunes and quicktime function properly. run quicktime and make sure that it works. if it works then close the programs completely and make sure that it is "exit ed" from the bottom right hand of the screen.
after this run iTunes. if it works Fantastic!!
if not try to uninstall iTunes and quicktime and then follow the directions that "Stephenb." has posted
Hope this helps.. Email me for ?s if desired

SIM not reading, Need help fast due to being abroad!!

My iPhone 4 was working perfectly until about an hour ago when I received an error message stating I have no sim. I restarted the phone several times with no luck. Then I restored all settings through the iPhone with no luck until I turned my phone off for 3 mintues and upon turning it back on (I was unable to reset the phone because I have no computer back up and no WiFi because of the no SIM) the tmobile signal appeared. I was able to connect to wifi to reset my phone which it is in the processes of doing. But after 5 minutes the NO SIM appeared where tmobile appeared. I am in Austria for another 3 weeks and this is my only connection back to home and I am not even able to contact someone to tell them what is happening. If anyone has ANY solutions that does not involve going to an ATT store (my phones original carrier) to replace the SIM card since I am not capable to do so it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for your time
Scarlett

Try this (copied from http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802):
Remove the SIM card.
Verify that the SIM card is not damaged or dirty, then reinstall the SIM card.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
Wait approximately two minutes, then see if iPhone detects the SIM card and if it will register on the network.
If that doesn't work, try another SIM card for that carrier, if possible, to see if it is detected.
If the message still exists, please go to: apple.com/support/iphone/service/faq/ for information on service.
Note: If you need to send your iPhone in for service or if you want to temporarily use a different phone, you may be able to use the SIM card inside your iPhone with another GSM phone.
