My iMac doesn't stop correctly

My 2011 iMac (27-inch) running OS X El Capitan vs 10.11.5. Starting last month, when I have that be tempted to stop the computer or the computer would awaken after being dormant, it will freeze. The desktop, but none of my icons and status bar. I have to do a hard cock down. Suggestions for a fix?

You have the Wacom tablet software installed?

  • S440/Win10 - does not stop correctly

    Hello

    I have upgraded to windows 10 recently. After the upgrade, sometimes, the laptop does not stopped correctly - windows stops, the screen goes black, but thinkpad red LED remains flashing and I hear the fans still doesn't work. To really stop I have to press and hold the power button. The battery also is to be served, because after that I left it like that night, it was gone.

    Now, it's a little weird because it isn't always happens. It only seems to happen after that the laptop has been for a while. If I had to bet, it would be related to switchable graphics as the behavior resembles the problem with graphics terribly switchable and sleep on win8.1.

    To work around this problem, I took to restart the computer and stop just after shot, but Needless to say it is suboptimal.

    Anyone has any ideas on how to fix it?

    I think I found a solution. I have seen this mentioned in other forums of laptop, and it seems to have fixed for me.

    The culprit seems to be this driver:

    Intel(r) Management Engine Interface Driver for Windows 10 (version 11)

    If you install the earlier (version 9, should be on the lenovo driver page) it solves problems of stop/standby.

    Firefox seems to have recently developed seemingly random usually do not remember bookmarks, particularly when the pc does not stop correctly. Thank you

    If Firefox detects that the places.sqlite database is corrupted then Firefox can create a new database file and import bookmarks from a JSON backup that does not contain the most recent bookmarks (a new JSON backup is created when you run Firefox for the first time on a day), then you may lose the bookmarks in such a case.

    You can check for problems with the database places.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder.

    BUT do not forget that the FCS has been abandoned by Apple years ago, and the latest Apple operating systems are built without any concern as to the functionality of the FCS.

    Some of the apps in FCS are dead in the water, and others work with features limited or erratic.

    Anecdotal reports of problems running FCS on model are all over the map. Some do work, some don't.

    In addition, FCS2 has problems with the included Installer, requiring Rosetta to run (which is no longer included in the operating system), so it will not install without workaround.

    Reinstall El Capitan without erasing the drive

    Make sure that you have a current backup before continuing.

    HD recovery start:

    Restart the computer after the ring, press in and hold the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen to appear.

    Repair

    When the recovery menu appears, select disk utility and press the continue button. Disk utility charges and select Macintosh HD entry indented from the list on the left.  Click the first aid tab in the toolbar... If disk utility reports any errors that have been corrected, then re-run first aid until no errors are reported. Wait until the operation is complete, then quit disk utility and return to the main menu. Select restart from the Apple menu.

    Reinstall OS X: Select reinstall OS X and click on the continue button.

    Note : You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest to use Ethernet if possible because it's three times faster than Wi - Fi and more reliable.

    In the future please post in the appropriate forum. Your question is not related to the developers forum. I will take care of moved it.

  • Windows is not stopped correctly

    I have a Windows XP and one day I started it up, and he says

    "Windows don't is not stopped correctly, please choose an option below.
    I thought, what must have been a power surge, it's happened before, so I just hit start Windows normally. He began to start and then a screen like the one before that "Windows is not stopped... '. "I tried other options, but it's just a continuous loop. How should I do?

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination? (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    The afflicted system has a CD/DVD drive work?

    You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    If your system uses to work properly, what do you think might have happened to her since the last time, that it did not work properly?

    If there is a problem starting, XP is configured to automatically try to start again and you can stuck in a loop not being able to go beyond the screen boot options, or none of these startup options you choose will work only.

    Sometimes, when XP has a problem starting or falls down and tries to start again, it will give you a "short" menu of boot options and none of them will appear to be good to get your system going again.  You have tried them all!

    The options are similar to the Advanced Boot Options menu XP, but the only option that you need (disable automatic error system reboot) are not offered, because XP went too far during the boot process and offers a limited number of boot options.

    If this is the case, you must call Options menu advanced boot yourself until you do not see the option:

    Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure

    When you get the XP Advanced Options correct start menu you want to see, he has options on it like these:

    Safe mode
    Safe mode with networking
    Safe mode with command prompt

    Enable Boot logging
    Enable VGA mode
    Last good Configuration known (your most recent settings that worked)
    Directory Services Restore Mode (Windows domain controllers only)
    Debug mode
    Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure

    Start Windows normally
    Reset
    Return to OS Choices Menu

    You need to choose in this menu is the option:

    Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure

    Then if XP does not start normally, you will see an error screen with information and clues about the problem and then you can decide what to do next.

    If you do not see the automatic restart on system failure option turn it off, you must reset your system and start typing the key F8 on the keyboard until you see her disable automatic restart on system failure option.

    If you miss the window of opportunity F8, you must try again and start tapping the F8 key with more urgency (earlier and more frequently) until you see disable automatic restart on system failure, and then select.

    You must keep trying the F8 menu until you see disable automatic restart on system failure option, and select it.

    If your system has a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD), we need to know what the screen says:

    Here's a BSOD example showing information you provide:

    http://TechRepublic.com.com/i/tr/downloads/images/bsod_a.jpg

    Send for the nose and the Red arrows (3 to 4 lines total).

    Send all * line STOP message since there are clues in the 4 parameters.

    If it looks like there is some kind of name listed in the STOP message file, send this line also.

    Ignore the boring text unless it seems important to you.  We know what a BSOD looks like, we need to know what your BSOD looks like.

    Answering queries and results report of the disable automatic restart on system failure screen and you can decide what to do next.

  • Scrolling doesn't stop on the lower edge of browser if background image is larger (Version 2015.1)

    I've just upgraded to the new Muse-Version 2015.1. Now it seems that when editing my site Web (overview and catalyst) scrolling doesn't stop down browser.

    Scrolling does not stop until the edge of the background image is reached (which is greater than the content).

    ScreenShot_01.jpg

    It's a little hard to tell from the screenshot, but it seems that you have not set filling of the Page or the browser fill and drew instead of boxes and filled fo the semi-transparent box page, and the graphic that is in the background, or perhaps it is a placed image arranged behind everything else? If Yes, it is certainly not what you want to do the filling of browser and you'd probably also be better to use the filling of the Page.

    Click on the words "Browser-deflector" and then click on the folder icon to set a browser fill for your background image, select delete the image that is currently in the background so you can see filling of the browser.

  • iMac does not stop

    After the upgrade to 10.11.6:-

    1. my iMac (21.5 in. 500 GB) used stop - it just goes to the picture of the screen. + pointer.

    2. after a forced shutdown it starts very slowly with many "beach ball".

    3. many applications also takes ages to open (with beachballing).

    4. I tried repair disk (says it's okay) and applejack which has some difficulties to locate 'virtual memory', but otherwise, seems happy.

  • My e-mail text doesn't display correctly in the preview pane after upgrade to V38

    I upgraded from 32.0 to 38.0 today. After that I upgraded my emails are not displayed correctly. When enamel is reduced in the preview pane, the text appears in a single line and is truncated at the end of the right SIDE of the pane. When enamel is developed in the preview pane is displayed none of the electronic text. If I open the email in a new window, none of the text of the email is displayed. With the 38 version I can't read the email.

    I've downgraded to version 36 and the frozen problem existed. I uninstalled V36 and everything stopped and restarted then installed V32 and all is good again. I don't know what version between 32 and 36 problems began. I would like to get current.

    If anyone can help with this?

    It is rather difficult to diagnose when you uninstalled software.

    I suggest you reinstall it and try safe mode (hold down the SHIFT key while the program starts). This disables modules and there is a good chance that it's an incompatible add-on or theme that is causing.
