Won't start up from Safe Mode
Powerbook G4 goes to blue screen during regular start-up. Tried starting it in Safe Mode and it stops on the Apple blue background and won't got any further. I was on Safari earlier and it froze, so I did a hard restart. Now it just stops on one of the blue screens mentioned above. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Simon, I had a similar problem after restarting (after a software update), resulting in the dreaded blue screen:

I've since 'zero-ed' the disk and am now back to square -1 on Jaguar until I find my Panther disk!
Although my problem was a drive error, you can still try some of the fixes that should work, e.g try repairing disk permissions using disk utility, i.e before taking the drastic measures I finally had to take.
Good luck

IMac won't start up in safe mode
Thanks to those that have helped getting my so far. Really appreciated.
When attempting to startup in safe mode the grey progress bar runs to about 1/3 of the way then drops out & am stuck on the grey screen again.
Tried starting up in safe mode with report Shift-Cmd-V
Lots of tech jargon so am not sure what to look for or how to rectify it (short of reinstalling system discs)
the last 3 lines are as follows (if that's any help)...
fsck_hfs: Volume is journaled. No checking performed.
fsck_hfs: Use the -f option to force checking.
launchctl: Please convert the following to launchd: /etc/mach_init.d/dashboardadvisory.plistYes, I have backed up and deleted old files using target disk mode with an old macbook. It's just the larger files I didn't have enough space and disks for. I really appreciate your help on this as I've never had any mac issues before this so am not really sure what to look for.

2 Super duper clone boot drives in machine
Now,

2nd boot drive (via option,select boot drive) same thing...

Anything to reset in the machine?
Have already reset the PRam, reset the SMC
RossThe Mac Pro early 2008 requires 10.5.2 or later to boot.
Pull out all the Hard drives and try booting from your 10.6 DVD. That will tell you whether the basic Hardware is working. -

If you can't do anything, there is nothing anyone here can do for you. Your only other alternative is to take the computer to an Apple store or an AASP. Whichever is more convenient for you. -
My MBP didn't recognise my password, started it in safe mode, I can see my files, but I don't know what to do next, as the image of reset password isn't selectable. I just moved from PC. Need help please...
Safe mode is not what you want in this case. Reboot to recovery mode - hold down cmd-R as the Mac reboots. Go past the language-selection screen, click the Utilities menu, then Terminal. Type:
resetpassword
Followed by the return key, and follow the prompts. Reboot normally when done.

And will not start up in safe mode. I have reset PRAM and SMC. Also restarted with no startup items, no luck. Had the problem of waking from sleep and not shutting down in 10.7, updated to 10.8 hoping for fix, no luck. Any help would be appreciated.
ThanksHi, this log has some similarities to my ipod touch which seems to be not sleeping properly due to wireless issues. Can I check - are you using a wifi connection - if so have you tried ethernet?

Won't boot in windows safe mode
I have a satellite 205, 20 months old, that began intermittently going to blue screen, then the problem became permanent upon start-up, including a partial display of windows logon screen, then the blue screen wtih message, "attempt to reset display driver & recover from time out failed", with reference to driver igdkmd32.sys. I could boot in safe mode. Attempts to update the driver resulted in a successful boot once, but soon went back to blue screen and boot menu. I restored with CD to out-of-box condition, but no improvement; worse if anything. It continuously recycles after initial start-up window and won't even reboot in safe mode. It shows a couple of bands of screen when trying to start windows, including black dots and even strange sound like a plucked guitar string. I booted from CD several times, and ran memory checks and chkdsk, even reset the memory. No problems revealed.
I can't find anything else to try and would appreciate any suggestions.I restored with CD to out-of-box condition, but no improvement; worse if anything.

Hp g62 freezes and won't run except in safe mode
My hp g62 won't run except in safe mode and when I run normally it freezes. I been reading in the post of the same existing problems and tried the start up test and it failed the short Dsp. What should I do
Hi @Daver1976 ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your HP G62 Notebook and Short DST failing. Here is a link to restore the BIOS.
You could try safe mode disk defragmenter it will scan your computer. Just click on start and type disk. Select C: and select defragmenter.
Please note remove any and all USB devices, and remove memory cards from the card reader slot. Disconnect all non-essential devices.
Here is a link to do a hardware test. It can let you know if something is failing and the code it gives you would be helpful.
Hope this helps you, please let me know if you receive any errors.
Thanks.

My MB is always starting up in safe mode... why? What to do to start-up normally? Please help.
Hi,
I am frequently having troubles with my MB. Different types of troubles. Couldn't solve a single one yet.
I have performed reboot MB in safe mode-- hold down the left shift key after the start up tone till the spinning gear appeared.
Few hours back i performed that, and since then it just starting up in safe mode without holding the any shift key. I have password protected log-in and each time the dialog box shown the safe mode, not the normal boot as it used to be. I restarted so many times, but same result.
I started-up by holding down the Option key, dialog box showing the same thing "safe mode" and same result.
I started-up in single user mode, and then typed reboot, then pressed enter/return button, but dialog box shown the same and it started up in safe mode after entering the password.
While in the safe mode, i have selected the Mac OS X 10.4.11 from the preference pane, then restarted, but all produced the same result, same dialog box showing the safe mode.
I couldn't take the screen shot of that dialog box that appears before starting up.
I am currently using the internet while in safe mode, and using ethernet adapter- a AirStream 1100 F25 external modem attached to the USB port. I don't know if that is good for my MB to use internet on the safe mode.
I used disk utility and verified the disk during the safe mode, i don't know if that is right or wrong to perform that utility in safe mode, but it all appeared as normal. You can see that from the following image.
Few days back, i performed the disk utility to verify disk while on the normal boot. But the result shown the red marks, please see the following image for details.

Please help me out. Let me know how to start-up normally. By the way, my superdrive is not detecting DVDs including the OS dvds, but it read and write the CDs. So, It is not possible to reinstall OS early, at least not before the having the back up of the data. Please help me with contingency plan/s or as you think fit.
Thank you. Look forward to your reply.
<Personal Information Edited by Host>Maximillianmann,
depending upon how full “almost full” actually is, that could be the problem.
You can try this, if you have Mac OS X 10.7 or newer installed, to see if it’s not related to your disk being almost full: boot your MacBook Pro into Recovery mode by holding down a Command key and the R key as it starts up. Once the Mac OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Once you hear the startup chime, try booting into Safe mode; does it let you do so now? -
I've followed the directions here 8 times now:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107393
I've tried it with various timing alterations, and I just can't seem to get started up in safe mode.
Any clue what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks.Okay, I solved my own problem. Figured I'd post it here, just in case it might help someone else. Though, it probably won't. My set-up is pretty rare.
My keyboard isn't plugged into my computer. It's plugged into my monitor, which has 4 USB ports. Evidently, those USB ports don't get loaded until too late in the start-up process, for me to take advantage of start-up commands.
When I plugged the keyboard directly into the computer, it worked fine. -
Lost user profile and disk0s2: I/O error during start up in safe mode
My almost 2 year old Mac Book Pro (10.7.5) started lagging and rainbow spiraling last week and now it usually doesn't make it to the login page after boot up. It stays on the gray apple screen until I hold the power button to power it off.
If it makes it to the login page, after 10-20 minutes on the gray apple screen, my primary user profile is not there but the standadr guest user and my blank student user are still there and do work with many rainbow spirals interruptions.
I started it in safe mode and have also tried starting it with command-option-p-r to reset the PRAM and it went through the double start up sounds but still did not load my primary user profile on the login screen, still after a very long boot up process.
I then started it up in safe mode and watched the progress it seemed to run cleanly through lines and lines of code until it hit a bunch of lines of "disk0s2: I/O error" ...
Are my computer's brains toast??? I just did a Time Machiene back up to an external hard drive as few days ago ... but what needs to be done with my computer?"disk0s2: I/O error" ...
This indicates a disk failure, though a hardware failure involving the connection between the HD and logic board is also a remote possibility. If you are able to successfully repair it with Disk Utility, it will probably recur.
Replace the disk and restore from your Time Machine backup. Hard disks are not expensive and it's easy enough to replace it yourself. -

Help: Can't start up in Safe Mode!
I'm trying to fire up in Safe Mode to do a few Spotlight housekeeping tasks but my Mac won't have it. When I try start up Safe it gets no further than the Grey Apple Logo and spinning wheel. After a short while the fans spin up to full speed and nothing else happens. I have to force the Mac to shut down and I can then start up again normally.
Any help on this would be much appreciated as there may come a time when I NEED to start up in Safe Mode.
Thanks in advance. Derek.Hi-
Might want to try a Single User mode boot (command +s) and run fsck.
-Startup in Single User mode.
-At the command-line prompt, type */sbin/fsck -fy*. Press Return.
fsck will go through five "phases" and then return information about your disk's use and fragmentation. Once it finishes, it'll display this message if no issue is found:
The volume (nameofvolume) appears to be OK
-If fsck found issues and has altered, repaired, or fixed anything, it will display this message:
FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED
Important: If this message appears, repeat the fsck command again, until fsck tells you that your volume appears to be OK (first-pass repairs may uncover additional issues, so this is a normal thing to do).
-When fsck reports that your volume is OK, type reboot at the prompt and then press Return.
-Your computer should start up normally and allow you to log in.
After this, try a Safe mode boot, again.
Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck -
I am trying to start up in Safe Mode and I know that I have to hold shift after I hear the "on" sound after turning the computer on from shut down. But I don't hear any on sound... What do I do?
D you hear the boot beep when you boot normally? If not then you may have mute set in the Sound preferences.
If mute isn't set try doing a pram reset. Of course that may be problematic since you need the boot beep for that too.

Trying to retouch (repair/clone) a BMP file and nothing happens
I have been using Aperture for a long time now, and am used to using repair and clone. Today, I tried to clean up an area of a photo which is in BMP format, and clone does absolutely nothing. Repair leaves a white path where I drag across the image.
