Shipwrecked is nerves: after standing 10.11.4, update hangs

Dear all,

I really, really need your help right now. I'm typing this on my iPad Pro, because my Mac crashes.

Data sheet:

MBP 15 "mid-2014 retina, OSX 11.4 El Capitan

Since the update

Safari is not yet launch (icon spends little time, and then exits).

iTunes crashes every time that - except when I disconnect my Wifi,

Mac App Store, but it does not connect to the store.

iBooks will only display all the books in the cloud,

iCloud is not connecting etc etc.

OSX won't let me even install anything (Tech Tool Pro, 10.11.4 Combo Update, update of iTunes). Everytime I try, it closes.

Before you can update everything went well, I have absolutely no problems.

What I've tried so far:

Rebooted a million times, disconnect all hard drives.

Rebooted and performed equipment tests, because I thought I might have a RAM problem - no error.

Restored to iTunes through Time Machine - works, as long as I don't connect to internet via Wifi. After that: Crash, reboot, no library etc.

Tried to re - install the update - it won't let me.

Checked drives - no errors.

Removed a lot of iTunes plists and stuff.

Problems with Wifi, I have a slight feeling that it might have something to do with permissions or the key - but I'm not sure.

I'yve got a calendar to match and I'm in serious trouble.

Any help would be really appreciated.

Best,

Oliver

Why don't you just restart from your recovery partition, then reinstall El Capitan?

    Hi MikeDallos,

    I understand that after your wife 5 iPhone update and your iPhone 6 the new iOS, you both know questions in regards the phone doesn't ring do not or may not alert you to the alert notifications when you receive a message. I use my iPhone all the time and I count on the possibility of having my phone alert me for incoming calls and messages. We'll see what we can do.

    The first thing I want you to do is to restart the two iPhones. Make sure that your wife's iPhone has the ring/silent switch on mute.

  • My apple pencil does not work after the 9.3.4 update.

    My apple pencil does not work after the 9.3.4 update. I tried to restart but still does not work. Tried to forget the device and whenever I connect the pencil to the ipad pro, it is said that it does not recognize the cable / device. Help please.

    < re-titled by host >

    Greetings RechargeableJam,

    Welcome to the communities of Apple Support!

    I see that your Apple pencil does not work after update to iOS 9.3.4. I guess it's about to have a problem with something that worked with the previous version of the iOS software. I'm happy to help you to help you find the best resolution.

    First of all, let's close open applications on your iPad Pro. This can ensure that there is nothing running in the background that is causing a conflict. The following article will help you:

    Force a nearby application on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch

    Then connect the pencil of Apple and see if it is recognized for the time being. If you don't see the Pair button, wait a minute while your Apple pencil costs. Then disconnect your Apple pencil, Plug and back on hold until you see the button in hand.

    Best regards.

  • Would never be able to stop or restart the computer in the menu after the 10.11.5 update and cannot get the 10.11.6 because iMac restart

    After the 10.11.5 update, that I could never restart or shut down my iMac (late 2013, 3.2 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3) using the new menu. I can only stop it by pressing the button for a few seconds. I saw a few discussions addressing the question here and have tried to implement some of the solutions proposed, such as restarting in safe mode, deleting the application from Wacom-, but nothing has worked. Now I can't get the 10.11.6 updating or update my Adobe Creative cloud, incidentally, which became available to me, because I can't restart the computer. Do you know if this update would be better and solve the problem? Is there a way I can get this update even if I cannot restart the computer, or even to restore the system to an earlier version?

    Perhaps run EtreCheck and post the results here.

  • After the 38.0.5 update, firefox is very slow!

    It happens after update to 38.0.5. I disabled "Hardware accelerate", also using the latest video driver. Please fix this.

    It is possible that your security (firewall, antivirus) software blocks or limit Firefox or the process of plugin-container without you inform, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and allow your firewall to ask permission to get access full and unrestricted, again to install for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

    See:

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problem.

    See "create a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile already used in the new profile, but be careful not to copy files corrupted to avoid transporting more problems.
