First aid disk utility

• Failed to process first aid disk - utility

  I've been running into issues with my iMac, as random freezes and stops at random times while doing completely different things. I thought that I've narrowed the problem to a USB hub, but it crashed on me again once the other day. Without apparent reason, everything stops in response, trackpad unresponsive, the music stops, and in a minute it stops and restarts itself. The behavior is unpredictable and completely random. Sometimes I can go for a few weeks, sometimes it will happen after reboot later. Super annoying, especially since I never had this problem with my 2008 iMac.

  Recently, I had a lot of beach balls in the Finder of spinning. Sometimes I can wait it out, sometimes I have to restart completely. I tried to reinstall the operating system to reset the PRAM, removed all devices, started in Safe Mode, all without success.

  The other day I tried to launch disk utility to repair permissions, but I get an error message: "first aid process has failed. Save if possible data on this volume. "" "The operation could not compete. (Cocoa error - 1) ». Not sure why this is happening. I wonder if it has to do with my problems eventually? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

• Disk utility 15.0 has no way to stop the first aid

  On OS / X 10.11.4 on a MacBook Pro for mid-2014.   Utility disk 15.0 (1511.3).   But I've noticed this for a while.

  Once I start first aid, disk utility appears a small dialog box modal ["first aid running on '... "] of which there is no evacuation - short to kill the process, unplug the drive, or restart the machine.   This was not the case before an upgrade months ago.

  Since first aid on the large disks, in particular connected by USB 2.0, can take a long time, it's very embarrassing.

  All three exit opportunities (kill, remove, reboot) do not seem to run the risk of leaving the disk in a bad state - which is exactly the thing running first aid is supposed to solve, no question.

  Does anyone have any suggestions?   Or can direct me to the right place to submit a bug report?

  Thank you

• Disk utility first aid operation was unsuccessful and iMac freezes when it is reloaded

  iMac Intel Core (2010) 320 GB 4 GB of RAM.  Running OS 10.11.6

  Started computer, white screen appeared with the icon of a folder with an exclamation mark in the folder.  Nothing else to do, so restarted iMac, hold down the command and 'r' to open disk utility.

  Ran first aid, recommended "incorrect block are 1172 instead of 601.  File system check or repair a failure.  Operation failed. "" "First aid running not a, if possible save the data on this volume.  Click OK to continue. »

  Discount to zero is successful, but screen is frozen with no access to the hard drive.  I can't open the preferences system due to frost.

  The circle of rainbow of spinning of death continues to run so I am not able to get any other repair mechanism.

  Anyone have any ideas on how to proceed?  The iMac is obviously not able to boot to the hard drive.

  This probably means the HD has failed and must be replaced. How you proceed, is to take the computer to your local Apple authorized provider who can help replace the disk and get you back in business.

  At this point, there is no need to delete. A new copy of Mac OS X can be installed directly over the old copy. This process replaces the components of Mac OS X on a file by file basis and adds missing ones, there will be no major throwing away what anyone, unless there is a power failure.

  You have already run disk first aid.

  Now use mode of recovery (command + R to start) to "Re-install Mac OS X. It should install the latest revision of the main version that you ran last.

• El Capitan utility disk first aid fails - unable to unmount the volume for repair

  Question: Given the following error with Disk Utility first aid and success with diskutil check volume, I should consider my drive damaged or volume?

  After a crash of the system on my Mac mini (end 2012) running that OS X El Capitan 10.11.3 has experienced a kernel panic induced by the adapter USB Wi - Fi, I dutifully ran first aid utility disk on each volume on the disk, in order to ensure the integrity of system files.

  Additional information: I didn't have any problems with this disk volume. I use it only as a Time Machine backup destination. It is an encrypted volume OS X Extended (respect for case-sensitive). My concern involves only disk utility complaint that its "first aid process has failed."

  After reading the complaints in other forums that utility disk on El Capitan has been "dumbed down" and can not perform many of the functions that the utility of the same name used to be able to perform in previous versions of Mac OS (complaints, I can't confirm because I'm relatively new to MacOS - although extremely in computing with Windows, UNIX and Linux) (, so I didn't get to use disk utility a lot, before El Capitan), I decided to do the same "check the volume" that I knew first aid was trying to perform with the diskutil command-line app.  Guess what? No error!:

  I think you might be able to do a repair of first aid, after you have disassembled the drive first:

  1. Run OS X by an external device (ex: USB mode, or external hard drive or disk target from another Mac)
  2. Launch the Terminal and run the following command umount f /Volumes/ (ex: umount f/Volumes/Macintosh\ HD)
  3. Then run disk utility first aid.

  I had this problem on a Macbook Air, I tried to recreate the image to work, so I didn't need to get anything off the drive. I tried to format the drive and reinstall OS X. So I don't know if first aid work after disassembly, but it worked without a doubt after that I did the first two steps above and then deleted from the disk. Not sure if this will help, but worth a try, I guess.

• Can not start up and the utility disk first aid failed

  I have an iMac 27 "retina 5K (end of 2015) El Capitan (10.11.2) and 10 Windows via Bootcamp.   This morning when I had finished work on the Windows of the machine side, I tried to start in El Capitan, but it failed silently and turned off the machine itself about the 2 minute point.  I tried new and same problem.  So I checked if I could go back to Windows and ran 10 Windows without problem.  Then I started in the Mac recovery partition to run disk utility and it revealed a considerable number of errors on the Macintosh partition such as:

  -Previous ID in a string of hard link is incorrect (ID =-1130612101)

  (it should be 3164355194 instead of 0)

  Several of the above errors appeared with different numbers

  -Volume bitmap minor meds of repair for orphans blocks

  -County of block free invalid volume

  -Volume header needs minor repairs

  -Lack of notice of thread (id =-1130634630)

  Several of the above errors appeared with different numbers

  Finally the process 'done' with the 'first aid process has failed.  If possible to backup the data on this volume.

  Then I started in an installed USB version of the El Capitan, and while it was successful, he launched a warning when he mounted the volume that I had the problem with: "OS X cannot repair the disk"Macintosh HD"" but I was able to copy the files from this volume and even run applications that have been stored on it.  Tried to run disk utility and first aid in vain as above.

  So here are the questions.

  1 should I guess that nothing can do otherwise erase that partition and reinstall El Capitan?

  2 delete the partition and reinstalled El Capitan will affect my Bootcamp partition or the ability to use Win 10?

  3. I have a Time Machine backup. restore it re - will present the same problem?

  4. I have never had such a massive and unrecoverable failure on a Mac drive and I had used it the day before without problem.  Should I assume that the drive itself is defective and have it replaced?  I ran an Apple Hardware Test and were not problems.

  1 fix

  2. Yes

  3 NO.

  4 NO.

  Back up all data on this disc, including your Bootcamp partition.

• Time machine HDD not fixed by first aid to the disk driver

  My 1 than to Seagate HARD drive works well, but recently, did not properly. Suggested that I use the disk driver. I ran first aid, and who ended up with first aid process has failed.

  Can I just throw the HARD drive and get a new one, or is there something else I can do.

  Thank you, John

  I just throw the HARD drive and get a new

  Yes.

  Even if disk utility is able to 'fix' a hard disk dive, it is bound to fail once again, sometimes in a very short time. Replace it.

• Love at first sight and disk utility

  Hello

  With the old version of disk utility, I could start in the repair using the command + R section, click disk utility, and then copy my computer perfect HD over to another Mac connected via Thunderbolt and in target disk mode. This process took about 7 minutes. Is it possible to do it again? Use the migration wizard is not a viable option because it takes over 30 minutes to copy it to the users and applications and I have several computer at image Labs.

  You try to restore your hard drive to another on a target machine?     If so, you can always do this.   Reboot from Recovery HD and use disk utility.  To 1 restore another disc, you select 1st target drive.  Then on the Edit menu, select Restore.  Then in the drop-down list, select the source drive.  If you love at first sight, this should go pretty fast.

• I can not fire first aid in Recovery Mode

  I upgraded to Sierra this afternoon. Because I'm disorder obsessive-compulsive, I ran first aid on Macintosh HD, despite the quite well running system. Said disk utility it found corruption, and should I run first aid in Recovery Mode. I restart, press command + R and go into Recovery Mode. I open disk utility, but I can't select "Macintosh HD" to perform first aid. It is grayed out.

  How can I select Macintosh HD in Recovery Mode to run first aid?

  When mode of recovery, that on the mac? (Apple menu, about this mac)

  have you tried r instead of command + R?

  You have a time machine backup drive? If so, can you boot option for that?

• Beachball of death / impossible to find movie files shown in disk utility

  Then, I started having the awesome beachball.  All the time.  I tried first aid utility disk, in addition to empty my cache dyld.  Seems to have worked.  Looking for a solution to this as well as when I ran disk utility, it shows that I have 380 + GB of movies.  And hoping the clearing space will decrease the appearance of the beachball if nothing else.

  I realized that I had a bunch of movies sitting in a folder I have is no longer necessary, so I deleted, emptied the Recycle Bin and rebooted.  Twice.  And disk utility still shows that I have who have lots of space consumed by the movies.  I did a search through the fichiers.mp4/.mov/.m4v/etc finder and come up with very little.

  Is there something else I can / does not?  I'm not really wanting to download third party software however.

  And it is solved after leaving it alone for a while.  Probably just needs some behind the scenes stuff to happen.

• Disk utility doesn't work do not at all

  The problem started with my iMac (10.11.6) slows down. I rebooted, it worked fine for a while, and then the problem comes back. I tried three times to use disk utility, but every time it's the same thing: the start box appears on the screen, i. by "tap" first aid, then... nothing. Nothing at all. I then tried to force out the utility disk, but for some reason any Force Quit option suddenly didn't work. Everything I had was the ball Beach and the non-functioning du box. So what's happening? Virus (I have Trend Micro, but nothing is perfect)? The age?

  Uninstall Trend Micro anti-virus software. It is not necessary on a Mac and is probably causing the problems you describe with disk utility.

  Third party software anti-virus is not necessary on a Mac and cannot cause problems.
