Auto restart MacOS Sierra

Hello!

So I upgraded to Mac OS Sierra yesterday, but then something is terribly wrong.

Whenever I try to put a window in full screen mode and when I switch between desktops using the 4-finger dragging gesture, the system reboots. It goes back to the user login screen.

What is someone having the same problem? Does anyone know a fix for this? Please, let me know!

Thanks in advance!

Oh, and I tried to reinstall the operating system, this morning, but got the questions are still there.

Hi mr_torpid!

I see that you have a problem when switching between desktops while an application is in full screen mode.  I know it's important to have your Mac works correctly, so I'm happy to help you.  To further isolate the issue, please create a new administrator account to see if the problem is still present.  Here are the instructions on how to do it:

  • Bootcamp in macOS Sierra

    Hello

    I'm using bootcamp on macOS Sierra (on MacBook Air 2015) and had installed Windows 10.

    I don't know if I can ask this group, but I think that the problem is a problem of bootcamp.

    When I turn on the computer to start Windows under bootcamp, it cannot generally go through the procedure of full boot with the following symptom:

    the keyboard light would not turn

    bootcamp icon does not respond (popup list will not display if I click on it) - I can't do anything to return to Mac OS

    the computer can still run other programs under Windows but only I can't switch back to Mac OS when the above symptoms appears - this is why I believe that it is related to the bootcamp rather than windows.

    I need to restart Windows, sometimes for a few times until everything seems normal again.  Sometimes I have to stop completely, then put up the start to be normal.

    Someone at - it the same experience?  Is that what I can do to fix this?

  • macOS Sierra does not support some MIDI controllers

    Because I downloaded the new macOS sierra, my midi keyboard no longer works. The midi controller is no longer recognized by Logic Pro X.

    Thanks in advance!

    But it is recognized by the computer, Garageband sees the keyboard?

    Go to utilities/Audio-MIDI settings...

    With the keyboard plugged in, look on the MIDI tab, everything is listed.

    After update for Sierra have you disconnected the keyboard, stop and restart the computer, allow to settle and then reconnect the keyboard.

  • 9.0 schedule search in macOS Sierra

    I ve made just the switch to macOS Sierra on my 2014 27 "iMac and not only love him but they were"lucky"so far: everything (apart from a few little niggles in Photoshop CS6) works well. But in the calendar, I have several entries and events dating back to the 1990s that I still sometimes have to find. But rummaging through the won´t calendar show anything more than 1 year away, which is very frustrating! Someone knows how to help me, or is this a limitation of the I´ll calendar just to live with? I like using Mac calendar for its simplicity, clean up the GUI and the perfectly in-sync with my iPhone and Don t want to use a third-party program such as Fantastical or BusyCal. EtreCheck shows no problem and performance "excellent".  Thank you very much for any help offered!

    You need to re-index your Spotlight cache files. Some users have had to re-index the calendar items. However, before you start trying to bugs, if your calendars are synchronized, you can try to remove the addition. System Preferences > iCloud, clear the calendar check box, and then add it again. Give it time to delete files.

    Check first under the Privacy tab in Spotlight. If the boot volume, or any volume where your data resides is listed, remove the. Spotlight will begin immediately the amount of indexing. Check back later and you should be able to find the items in Spotlight.

    HOW DO I RE-INDEX YOUR SPOTLIGHT CACHE FILES

    In the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.

    * Click on the projector.

    Make this mail and Messages is enabled on the results tab of research.

    * Click on the Privacy tab.

    * Drag your player to the list. Wait a few minutes.

    * Remove the item you added.

    * Projector will be re - index the content of the element that you initially dragged to the list.

    Probably not necessary, but I would immediately leave the Terminal and restart your Mac.

    SUMMARY:

    Depending on your Mac and the contents of his hard drive, the re-indexing may take several hours. This night is a good option if you have a large drive.

    Open the activity monitor in Applications/Utilities and type md in the search filter. You should see several mdworker who are active processes.

    Until this process is complete, Spotlight will not know the contents of your discs and will not send mail.

  • Impossible to upgrade usb macos sierra

    Hello!

    Created a USB Sierra installer in accordance with the old guide: create a bootable OS x - Apple support Installer

    The command used is:

    sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Sierra.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/MyVolume --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Sierra.app 

    USB is supposed to be successfully created, and I get the icon 'Install macOS Sierra' on the desktop after inserting/editing of the USB. I then open it and run the Setup program, it tells me it takes about 6 minutes, and then it tells me to restart in the sierra of macOS. After the reboot, I'm still on El Capitan!

    What I am doing wrong? I would like to install from USB to avoid having to download each of my Macs! It would be very unhelpful in my time and my bandwidth!

    As soon as it restarts, try to select the installer from USB as a boot using Boot Manager device - an Option button and selecting this device.

    Please read an external USB (Mac Intel) - storage device from Apple Support.

    I did disk first aid and tonight, tried to do a reinstall in Recovery Mode.

But I'll try fortunately once again in a day or two after your specific guidelines, and it would be nice if it worked.  (I had all of your problems. Mine were the window of the mail attachment issues (opens and closes quickly or opens but not completely, so I can not upwards), network goes offline after I wake the computer from sleep, sleep sometimes takes three tests since the first time I try to sleep, he wakes up immediately.  But I'll give it a try and thanks to you and khati for the info.

  • MacBook Pro crashed after update to macOS Sierra

    After I tried to update my MacBook Pro for macOS Sierra, this screen came:

    In case you can't read it, it says "apple.com/support-1007F'.

    After restart my MacBook Pro, he asked for my Wi - Fi connection information, so I typed in it and it showed a loading bar. Then came to this screen:

    I didn't know which option to choose, what is called Apple Care to help make a choice. They said to choose 'Reinstall OS X' so I did. Then my screen says something like "click and drag to the browser that you want to download in" but nothing has popped up.

    I don't know what is happening with my computer. Hard drive failure? This update was not the largest update so I don't know why all this is happening.

    If you have any ideas or solutions, please respond! That would be incredible!

    Thank you guys!

    It seems that your Mac can not find the system disk. It seems that the drive has failed and your Mac is now in recovery mode.

    Hi there, HMILLER75. Thank you for using communities of support from Apple!

    It seems that if you get a reminder that there is not actually on your MacBook Pro, which has been upgraded to macOS Sierra. You have made a huge step in troubleshooting, but since it did not help I have a few extra steps for you.

    With the reminders on your Mac app, close it using the Menu option (callbacks > reminders Quit) then hold down the SHIFT key left while the reopening of reminders to clear the cache.

    Safe mode try if your Mac does not start -is not only recommended safe mode when your Mac is not put into market, it also erases the system caches and certainty that your Mac starts correctly.

    These steps should clear reminders inhabiting not actually on your Mac. Have a great day!

  • macOS Sierra: Finder does not

    Hey,.

    I'm running a 2011 end MacBook Pro with macOS Sierra (10.12) running. It is a new installation of the system. Its an i7, 8 GB ram, and a 512 SSD running.

    The system works really well, but now and then the Finder completely freezes upward with many applications refusing to start. When I try to force quit them, everything except the Finder can be quit. In an attempt to relaunch the Finder, it just crashes and goes into a loop does not.

    Another strange thing, I've seen, it's Photos.app said now "Closed library" or something to that effect. Not able to reproduce every time, but it happens now and then.

    My doubts are on my oneDrive synchronizes running may at this time? -J' have two account personal and business running on them at the moment. Aside, the only other cloud service is iCloud (with iCloud Drive work with the new feature of office and Documents).

    At this point, I had to reset hard at the computer to make it work again.

    I have the same problem with the Finder on my iMac late 2009 after upgrading to Mac OS Sierra. When I double click on any folder or the Finder, I get the 'beachball', Finder becomes "inadmissible", and when I try to restart the Finder, nothing happens. I can't get Finder operational return. The only solution is to reboot. And frankly, I'm tired of reboot five times a day. I think that this happens generally when I'm under Safari. Not sure if it's one of the reasons why Finder crashes. I already tried to reinstall Sierra with no luck.
