Mac mini started to freeze at sign on and does not sign on.  also has popups to allow access to keychain and other pop-up windows

Hello, I am not a tech savvy person, so be patient with me.  I bought a mac mini, 5 months ago.  everything has been working great until 2 weeks ago.  kept popups have occurred, including Keychain Access, and many others that I've never heard of.  also, I can not connect, as the color wheel is present constantly, as if the pc is currently journal, although the color wheel rotates forever.  no connection for me.  any suggestions?

Well, in your particlular case I would recommend take your Mac to the local Apple Store. I guess the computer is still under warrantly, so you'll all be fixed free of charge and save your time and nerves.

Use the link below to find the store near you.

  • Mac mini (late 2012) flashing - question mark folder recovery does not work

    Hi all

    earlier today, I upgraded my Mac mini (end 2012) to the latest version of macOS Sierra.

    After 1 hour of use, I realized that many of my plugins FCPX were not working.

    I contacted the developers, and they said does not update the plugins and they told me to go back to El Capitan.

    I decided to listen to them and try to downgrade my OS.

    I restarted the Mac and held down Cmd - R or something like that that took me to the disk utility screen.

    Then I went down to dinner, and when I returned 30 minutes later my Mac had entered the sleep mode for some reason any.

    I woke up the Mac and 40 seconds later the power went out for 5-10 minutes.

    After the blackout, I restarted my Mac that took me to a black screen with a flashing question mark folder.

    I followed some tutorials online (including how to enter get - and the recovery of internet mode), but after a while even restoration of the internet shows me the flashing question mark folder.

    I don't know what to do.

    And no - unfortunately I don't have a Time Machine backup.

    But I have a backup with all my most important files.

    Is it possible to force the Mac to reset itself or something like that?

    Help, please.

    Best regards

  • How to join start in safe mode when the mouse does not work?

    (I'm on another computer to ask this question). I'm in safe mode; mouse does not work; arrow keys work but don't go to 'start '. How to get started?

    Assuming you have the office showing with all applications minimized or closed, Tab or F6 should pass the Start button and a few other "elements" on the taskbar.  Look closely and you will see a light preview highlighting of the selected item.  Press the Enter key to activate it.

    In XP Safe Mode, the cycle is start button > Quick Launch toolbar > [of any application taskbar icon] > clock > desktop icons.  While the Quick Launch toolbar is highlighted, the arrows move among the icons in the QL toolbar.  While the desktop icon is highlighted, the arrow keys will be touring all the desktop icons.

    I am running Windows 7, Windows Media Player.  I have movies on the computer that I want to display via two Panasonic DLNA certified Blu - Ray players.  I followed all the instructions from Microsoft to start streaming.  I get to the same point in different ways;  When Windows Media Player is opened I click 'Stream' and I come to a screen asking me on behalf of my library...  I fill in a name of the library (although I've never really known before), and then I click on the drop down menu to choose the device to allow.  The drop-down list is empty.

    Firefox has begun to open very slowly [very]!, as well as to crashing and freezing during use. What's happening on all my three machines, two running Win 7 and the other win 8.
    I tried refreshing and disabling, but to no avail hardware acceleration.
    Now it seems to freeze on opening and takes a minute or two to become sensitive, or not at all.
    When I look into during a freezing Task Manager, I see the Firefox process use 35 to 50% of memory [I have 8GB, 12GB, and 16GB] and up to 50% of the CPU resources.
    Everything was fine until the last two weeks.

  • My pc freezes during a normal race, does not freeze in safe mode

    My computer crashes after the normal start time randomly I do nothing especially when it freezes. It seems to help if I constantly move the mouse so it doesn't freeze. I ran malware bytes and nothing was found, I also ran mcafee, norton, windows defender and malicious microsoft removal tool. I can run the pc in safe mode and mode safe mode with networking, but as soon as I run it in normal mode it freezes all the time. I'm at my wits end trying to fix can someone help plz

    No I have not used all anti-virus durning in the last two weeks to try to find a virus but have had no luck. I have run both antivirus software and uninstall it once I use it I am currently only running windows Defender

    If you care to try...

    In safe mode, create a new user account with EXACTLY the same privileges as the other.
    Reboot, logon to the account again in NORMAL mode. It freezes on you also?

    My point of view (speculation only): maybe your old user account is damaged.

    P.S. running with ONLY windows Defender may not a good idea. Install a good AV (anti-virus) program.  I do not make recommendations when it comes to AV.
    I'm very curious. You have used Norton and McAfee and uninstalled them. Don't you have to pay for them? They have trial versions?
