Frozen machine XP

• Slow down or frozen system when you run Time Machine

  My entire system has been slow and I'm getting a lot of beach balls and frozen software/accidents of spinning. It is also slow to wake up and sometimes freezes when I try to log on my user account. I tried a number of things - routine maintenance, looking at activity monitor to see what is using RAM, reinstall MS Office, upgrade to El Capitan and two trips to the Genius Bar-(who showed none of the software or obvious hardware problems). Sort of, I noticed that when I run backup TM, the machine seems to be the slowest. I bought a new backup disk - thinking it was my external HD itself which was not (it is several years old) - but this does not appear to have solved the problem. And the machine ran faster in the Apple Store at home (of course) when my outside was not plugged.

  Anyone seen this before? Is it possible to 'clean up' Time Machine in case that is what is at the root of the problem?

  The genius of Apple suggested that he could be something corrupted in my user account and not related to TM, but not to delete my account, he had no any solution!

  Thank you

  Please post a report etrecehck in this thread for further analysis.

  your signature is misleading, you can not have 10.11.5 on an iMac G5 or G4 laptop computer, however if you did this would be the problem.

• is it possible to virtual machines in branch of common root frozen in time?

  Hello... I assume that this is possible, but I don't know how to do it.

  Example: Via VMware Server 2 running on Windows Server 2003 SP3.

  I installed Windows XP Pro SP2. Then, I used Windows Update

  update the virtual machine Windows XP Pro SP3.

  I'm writing this, I install the 27 updates from Windows Update.

  Finally, I end up with a Windows XP Pro SP3, which is until today.

  I'll use it to test different software and test web sites that I create.

  So, ideally, I would like to limit the amount of software that I

  install Windows XP Pro SP3 on top.

  I want to have the computer as clean as possible at any given time.

  At the same time, it takes a substantial amount of space hard disk to a virtual machine.

  MORE INFORMATION

  -

  ---

  That's my ideal goal: the 'ready to go' Windows XP Pro SP3 do a basic building block

  for computers of type variant. Lets call it base. I wish I had these example environments:

  COREa =. CORE + OpenOffice

  COREb =. CORE + Microsoft Office 2007

  COREc =. CORE + Microsoft Office 2003

  Thicket is. Base + Visual Studio 2008

  and so on

  In this way, for example, I avoid conflicts between Microsoft Office 2007 and Microsoft Office 2003.

  Since COREa, COREb, etc., all have a common core , I could probably save a

  significant amount of hard disk space.

  QUESTIONS:

  b is it possible and if yes, how?

  (b) If Yes to (a) above, what are the benefits?

  (c) If Yes to (a) above, what are the disadvantages?

  Thank you.

  Kind regards

  Gerry, you're on the right track. Here are the steps that I have spend to do:

  • Import a Standalone VM

  • Select the vmx virtual machine configuration file

  • Import the virtual machine to a 'Workstation virtual VMware Machine' (still works with VMware Server)

  • Name of the new virtual machine, choose the location and version of VMware, it is created for

  • Choose 'create a linked Clone '.

  Importing VMware 2.0 is a plu product and will not work with the new Version 7 virtual computers used in VMware Server v2.0. When you create your VM Image 'base', make sure you specify the version 4 of material in the options of "product Compativility. If your VM is already Virtual Hardware Version 7, you can create a new virtual machine to hardware v4, and then it's a hard drive with the virtual v7 machine.

  I haven't used VMware vCenter importer, so I don't know if it will do so, but I don't think that VMware Convert (which replaces importing vCenter) could do, so I think we can be stuck with the help of the old importer during the creation of related clones.

  Once I have create my first linked clone VM, I put aside as a template, so I can create more clones related simply by copying its files without having to use VMware importer again. You just make sure NEVER start the original VM that linked clones have been created since (unless you want to.) Any change in disk hard of the references will cancel all related clones.

  It would be possible to upgrade the VM basis and related to virtual hardware v7 later clones, but I have not tested this way.

• Machine 'frozen' when downloading updates and is stuck at 30% complete.

  I can't get my computer to download or install updates since 03/11/09.   On the taskbar, the icon to update said that updates are 30% COMPLETE.    Apparently, she tried to download updates
  and failed at 30%.  I tried the solution with the command prompt, but nothing has changed.  I am really behind in my updates.  Internet Explorer keeps freezing upwards when I pull a program and I think that if I could finish the updates, this will stop happening.

• error - 36 on Time Machine backup

  Help! I went on vacation for a week of my iMac running that yosemite was working fine when I left him. I left it turned on on my back, he had frozen, and disk utility showed that the player needed repair but it was irreparable. So I started from a system disk and deleted from my drive, hoping to restore from my Time Machine backup which was connected all the time. (I also have a Clone of Carbon Copy backup). But the Time machine backup restores, showing me "error-36". I'm quite familiar with the operations of Terminal "dot_clean", but when I try it tells me that the command is unknown. And, of course, the problem is with the Time Machine backup, not with my hard drive. is it possible to repair the Time Machine backup in my situation? I can't restore my backup CCC because my iMac can't see, had no installed system. I'm about to try to completely install the original Snow Leopard system from the boot disk and then either try to restore from time Machine, or migrate it again.

  Can anyone offer advice please?

• Time machine restore bugs too?

  I have MacBookPro Early 2015 with ElCapitan 10.11.4 installed on it. Offlate, MBP started erratic behavior, to be insensitive and frozen in the workplace.  Do not take the keyboard or touchpad controls.

  I took the latest TimeMachine backup.

  My question is if I restore the Mac with latest TimeMachine backup, he would restore the bugs too? If Yes, then what is the method to solve the bugs. And then, what is the use of Time Machine restore?

  If Yes, then what is the method to solve the bugs. And then, what is the use of Time Machine restore?

  The easiest solution is to simply remove the software that is causing the "bugs".

  The system itself and not operating not cause the problems you are having. They are probably caused by third-party software, but could be a problem with your trackpad or hard drive.

• Time Machine has only 2 weeks of backups. What is wrong?

  I have an IMac of TB 3 end 2013 with the merger in car. I bought this 2 years, as well as management Porsche Design 3 TB external time Machine. External drive has been sold with the iMac at the time so I guess it was good. About 5 months ago, he was frozen and had backup. I assumed it was dead and the time for a new. After the restart it several times it came back to life and has worked in the background since then. Today, I entered TM and noticed that I have only 2 weeks of backups, even if the backup on the right meter shows 2-year-old backups, I can access only the last 2 weeks. In addition, the hard drive is almost full to bursting. My IMac does not use same 1 TB of the 3.

  Is - this sound normal? It's time to replace the HD?

  You can run disk utility > first aid on the drive and see if there are errors.

• Problem restoring stuck MacBook Pro system and time machine

  This morning my retina MBP (El Cap 10.11.4, updated about a week ago) has frozen. It was working fine yesterday, but wake from sleep this morning nothing would go, apps wouldn't start, nothing, so I rebooted. He got about a third of the way between the progress bar white on black screen and hung with a spinning wheel.

  Then I tried to secure boot and made me to the login screen, but it still turns after that I entered the password. (The guest account and the other I put in place but rarely use seem to work well, it's just me hanging). Reset NVRAM made no difference.

  Then I went to recovery mode and has conducted an audit of disk first aid, who reported no problems. So, I used the disk utility to make a disk image to backup to an external drive and then to the Time Machine system restore. However, it asks for the password for 'System administrator' and rejects everything I try. The TC is configured as "Discs safe with accounts" (not ' device password') and there are two custom accounts and the wifi password. I can't check my backup settings now, but I think that it is only for my account, so I wonder if even is a system restore file. I would try to change the airport disk access settings but I'm afraid it will just trash my backups.

  Suggestions for free my Mac or enter the system restore (or restore just my account) until I try a reinstall?

• Time machine on a usb hub

  Last summer, my iMac (running El Capitan) 2010 started hooking serious problems where the only solution would be to perform a reboot of the material.  After much experimentation and running on an external drive, I discovered that Time Machine was the culprit.  That is, when TM was off, the Mac has worked well, but if I turned back on, after 12-24 hours of TM, the Mac, would essentially become unusable and require a restart of hardware.  While I would certainly prefer to have current backups made via TM, there is nothing on this machine that had not been saved on other storage devices, so I was happy to let it go for several months.  Thinking maybe TM two disks, I had been using had been corrupted, I have them off and on again 5 TB (internal drive is 1 TB).  Once again, the same results.  Thinking maybe the USB hub was at fault, I replaced the hub last night.  This morning, everything seemed fine, but four hours later, after being in mode 'sleep' for most of the time, it was frozen again.  I have attached from the player to the USB port on the iMac Freedmen and will wait to see what happens.

  Now I read that Apple has recommendations for the use of TM and nowhere in there is a mention, a USB hub, for or against.  Anyone has any information (even if it's just anecdotal) regarding the use of the Time Machine disks via a USB hub?  For the record, the drive is a Seagate 5 to, USB 3.0, and I connected via USB 2 and 3 USB hubs with the same results (suspended).

  Anyone who can shed light on this aura of gratitude.  It has been confusing me for some time - especially since it seems that nothing of what I found to indicate that you can not or do not use a Time Machine drive via a USB hub.

  These hubs are externally powered? And what else is connected to them?

• The Finder crashes repeatedly after a start-up of the machine of time :/

  Hello!

  I hope someone can fix and enlighten the connundrum on my mac.

  During workflow last Friday my Macbook Pro became very unresponsive. The FCC kept crashing, and the beach ball stops all processes including typing.

  I went into the recovery partition and checked and repaired discs. There was a problem of partion with HD, but who fixed green OK.

  Once started in normal but also safe mode, the problem persisted still so I got Time Machine machine in the recovery partition, spend a couple of hours back. It took a little more than two days (50 something) hours to accomplish.

  The unresponsivness and beach-ball problem seemed fixed, however the finder would crash on start and remains afterwards, crashed, with all tests afterwards.

  I first tried the terminal fix to (re) move the plist, alas, that did not help.

  I tried to run in safe mode, but still no luck.

  I had another look at the recovery to do first aid on the disks. All were very well outside the HD this time. The fault could not set in the recovery partition.

  I used the single_user_mode to fix the HD and it worked. I ran until the result reported no abnormalities.

  But once enter the normal mode the finder still kept crashing.

  I tried to erase and recover the OS via the internet and the OS recovery. None of them would not work. The internet recevry would crash/freeze and display a triangle with an exclamation mark with something like apple/support message 2020 slot. Operating system recovery took a little more than two days once again and this time the mac could start not at all normal (or safe) mode. I got was the Apple logo on the screen with a bar that has frozen once filling up (I left it 12 hours, just in case)

  I now rebooted the machine through the using time Machine recovery partition again (this time come back someday).

  Unfortunately, the fault of finder is still there. I can access some programs such as safari and texedit, but anything that uses or is based on a finder is a no-go.

  I don't really know where to go from here.

• Qosmio G20 - 107 frozen surfing

  Hello
  I had a problem yesterday while surfing the net: the machine stopped responding (frozen), then I've heard a long (for 20 sec or more) beep. Then I had to restart the machine by pressing the power button. He is arrested, but it didn't start up again. I had to wait 5 minutes and then it started OK. There is nothing in the windows event logs...
  Has anyone ever experienced this?

  Hello

  To be sure to check out please battery alarm in the power management tool. It is possible that it is set at 5%, and this sound alarm goes off too.

• Constantly frozen Finder. 10.9.5

  I have a MacBook Pro (retina 10.9.5 13 ")

  Since this morning my finder has been constantly frozen. Once restarted, it runs for about 10-30 seconds and then remains frozen. I first thought that it might be a preferences file corrupted and restarted several times and I've tried deleting the com.apple.finder.plist and that does not work either.

  When I relaunch the finder, it works for a few seconds and crashes, I can no longer select files, navigate through folders or do anything.

  Has anyone had this problem before? How they don't solve it?

  Thank you

  -Bobby

  Did you reboot after you remove the .plist file?

  Make a backup using Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure that data files can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.

  Try to set up another admin user account to see if the same problem persists. If back to my Mac is enabled in system preferences, the guest account will not work. The intention is to see if it is specific to an account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

  Isolate a problem by using a different user account

  If the problem is still there, try to start safe mode using your usual account.  Disconnect all devices except those necessary for the test. Shut down the computer and then put it up after a 10 second wait. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the SHIFT key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. Startup is considerably slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a check for directory and disables all start-up and connection, among other things. When you restart normally, the initial restart may be slower than normal. If the system is operating normally, there may be 3rd party applications that pose a problem. Try to delete/disable the third-party applications after a reboot using the UN-Installer. For each disable/remove, you need to restart if you do them all at once.

• Time Machine, which could cause slow startup?

  After issues with finder/desktop freezes I disabled automatic backups time machine and disconnected the disk.

  The drive does not have an index problem if I try to go into the time machine - but it made a backup and I don't want to lose those there until I have solve the problem.

  It all started when I was a housekeeping cleaning - deleting a file PDF - update of my photos outside of iphoto to include an image with text etc.

  Lately reached some stability during starts - in this very fast - almost every day except Wednesday - what is the start of a new week on my time machine - today's startup disk was gray and blue for a few minutes - then to avoid a freeze I restarted after loading the desktop computer.

  This also happened this afternoon when I started again - same last week - up to what he did and why - nothing in the logs to indicate anything unusual.

  If I plug the drive and push a time machine backup will scan the drive anyway so don't know what's the point.

  Just a quick note here - while in offline mode system - about 5 minutes after the use of widgets - frozen - was to force the reboot - but I did remove all the widgets and disable all the table - as one or more of them--came with Snow Leopard - can be the source of the problem.    I just put the calculator (not the widget application

  Extra - last night I noticed a lot of disk activity when I didn't do anything other than look at the activity - with TimeMachine notifier - monitor issue as time machine is not connected and is off - when I connect it - it will scan the disc again - so what is the Apple of point.

  Had trouble starting this AM - had a finder does not not - was able to force quit of doc and did a reboot, and I did a second reboot.

• launch of time machine breaks down mac

  When I use launchpad or on the icon time machine in the menu bar to find a saved file my mac crashes with a frozen image of the date 'ladder' on the right side of the screen. How can I fix?

  First of all, make sure that you do not use wireless to connect your Mac to the time Capsule.

  Connect an Ethernet cable from your Mac to a <>- on the Time Capsule LAN ports, restart the Mac and the Time Capsule, and then try again.

• Equium M40 - cursor usually frozen - Touchpad very erratic

  My cursor seems to freeze when the laptop is turned on for awhile (heat?) and then suddenly works again after days and days of frost. Have reinstalled the drivers (which worked for 24 hours), sent to Toshiba last week who has reinstalled everything and it worked again for 24 hours only, has been slain for worked days and now it suddenly after all the frozen screen and he would answer no to the keyboard either so I had to turn off at the power button but I have done this before and it didn't work before - WITHOUT RHYME or REASON. This is a brand new machine. WHAT CAN I DO? It makes me mental.

  Hey richie

  It's not easy to say what exactly is the problem. Maybe your unit switches to hot?
  It is also very important, that this laptop should be free of any objects that can cover the ventilation openings. There should be place around the unit so he cans "breath". Sometimes can help to update BIOS. You can also change the performance of the processor and method of cooling of the unit in Toshiba power saver utility.
  Maybe it helps.
