• iMac 8.1 stuck on the apple logo

  Model: iMac8, 1

  2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

  At 2BG memory when the problem started

  Mountain Lion 10.8.5

  Is in trouble with occasional frosts. Would be closed and it should restart very well. About 2 weeks ago, the computer froze. I shut down the computer and restarted. The apple logo came with the spinning wheel, and then just the apple logo.

  I can start safe mode. Tried resetting the PRAM, reset of SCM. Tried to start with all peripherals except keyboard and mouse disconnected. Use the command R to start the computer and went into the disc utilities. Disc checked and it said disc looks OK. Verified permissions. Mistakes came for iTunes more a warning which was not repairable. Fixed permissions. None of these permits to start properly.

  Parle talked anyone computer repair who suggested to unplug the computer, hold the power button while up to one minute, plug the computer back in and pressing the Start button. It came in fine. A few days letter that the computer froze and I had to stop it. You press the Start button, got the spinning wheel, so only the apple logo and apple logo. Start the computer by pressing command + R and reinstalled Mountain Lion. Installation once it stuck at the apple logo again. Active disk. Drive seems to be OK. Permission verified. Permission with iTunes but issues no warning this time. Repaired permissions. Nada.

  Inserted the installation disk, turned on the computer while holding D key. A ran Apple Hardware tools (tests of short or long). This error message came up twice with different numbers of rpm: 4MOT/1/40000003: drive HARD-110. I know that it's the hard drive fan. Computer repair man came out. Thought problem may be because I only had 2 GB of memory and ran only to open the Lion of mountain with several programs. Upgrade to 4 GB memory, which is recognized by the computer. But the computer still does not start correctly. Tried the Single Mode and run/sbin/fsck - fy. Said it seemed OK, but changed the volume. Ran he says once again and everything seemed OK. Still will not start.

  When I start in the disc, part of the grey background Utilities is missing. If you move the cursor on the screen, the gray background fills.

  Also, when I try from normally I get startup chime, the apple logo and the spinning wheel. After that make a spin the wheel stops, there is sort of a Flash, then the wheel goes and remains the apple logo. I can hear the computer tries to do something, then the arrow cursor appears and can be moved around the screen. It's like that.

  Also installed Mountain Lion on a USB key, it made the startup disk and tried to start the computer normally. Still will not start.

  Any ideas or suggestions for what could be wrong or other things to try?

  1. the present proceedings is a diagnostic test. It doesn't change anything for the better or worse and therefore, by itself, will not solve the problem. But with the help of the results of the tests, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.

  The test works on OS X 10.8 ("Mountain Lion") and later versions. I do not recommend running it on older versions of Mac OS X. It will do no harm, but it will not do not much good.

  Do not be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You make the tasks more complicated with the computer all the time.

  2. If you do not already have a current backup, please back up all the data before doing anything else. The backup is needed on the general principle, not because of what anyone in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you encounter any kind of problems with the computer, you can be more than the usual loss of data, if you follow these instructions or risk not.

  There are ways to back up a computer that is not fully functional. Ask if you need advice.

  3 here is instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it doesn't change anything. It does not send or receive data over the network. There is no to generate a report on the State of the computer human readable. This report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents for me or someone else.

  You should ask yourself if you can believe me, and if it is safe to run a program at the request of a foreign national. In general, no, he's not sure, and I encourage it.

  In this case, however, there are ways for you to decide if the program is safe without having to trust me. First of all, you can read it. Unlike an application that download you and click to start, it is transparent, anyone familiar with the code can check what it does.

  You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this site several times over a period of years. One of the million registered users to have read the script and set off the alarm if it was dangerous. Then I wouldn't be here now, and you would not be reading this message. See, e.g., this discussion.

  However, if you cannot satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, do not follow them. Ask other solutions.

  4. here is a general summary of what you need to do, if you decide to go forward:

  ☞ Copy text from a particular web page (not this one) to the Clipboard.

  ☞ Paste into the window to another application.

  ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.

  ☞ Stick the results, which will be copied automatically, in a response on this page.

  These are not specific instructions; just a glimpse. The details are in parts 7 and 8 of this comment. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait and paste it again. You don't need to copy a second time.

  5. try to test in conditions that replicate the problem, to the extent possible. For example, if the computer is slow intermittently, run the test during a downturn.

  You may have started up in safe mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works pretty well in normal mode to test run, restart as usual before running it. If you can test only in safe mode, this.

  6. If you have more than one user and a user is affected by the problem, and the user is not an administrator, and then run the test twice: once under the affected user and one administrator. The results can be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer, when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you are unable to log in as an administrator, verify that the user concerned. More personal Mac have only one user, and in this case this section does not apply. Don't log in as root.

  7 load the linked web page (the site "Pastebin.") Press the combination of keys command + A to select all the text, then copy it to the Clipboard by pressing command-C.

  8. start the Terminal application integrated in one of the following ways:

  ☞ Enter the first letters of his name ("Terminal") in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

  ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

  ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

  Click anywhere in the Terminal window to activate it. Paste from the Clipboard into the window by pressing Command + V, then press return. The text that you pasted should disappear immediately.

  9. If you logged in as an administrator, you will be prompted for your login password. Nothing displayed when you type. You won't see the usual points instead of the characters typed. Make sure that caps lock is turned off. Type carefully, and then press return. You can get a warning to be careful. If you make three unsuccessful attempts to enter the password, the test is still running, but it will produce less information. If you do not know the password, or if you prefer not to enter, just press back three times at the password prompt. Yet once again, the script will run.

  If the test takes much longer that usual to run because the computer is very slow, you can be prompted for your password a second time. The permission you grant by entering it will expire automatically after five minutes.

  If you are not logged as an administrator, you will be prompted for a password. The test will run. It just will not do anything that requires administrator privileges.

  10. the test may take a few minutes to run, depending on the number of files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that is abnormally slow may take more time to run the test. During execution, a series of lines is displayed in the Terminal window like this:

      Test started

          Part 1 of 4 done at: … sec        …        Part 4 of 4 done at: … sec

      The test results are on the Clipboard.

      Please close this window.

  The intervals between the parties will not be exactly the same, but they give an approximate indication of progress.

  Wait for the final message "Please close this window" appear - again, usually within a few minutes. If you don't see this message in about 30 minutes, the test probably won't be completed within a reasonable time. In this case, press the Ctrl + C key combination or the point command to stop it. Then go to the next step. You will have incomplete results, but still something.

  In order to get results, the test should be allowed to perform or be stopped manually as shown above. If you close the window of the Terminal, while the test is still running, the partial results will not be saved.

  11. when the test is completed, or if you manually stopped, leaving the Terminal. The results have been saved to the Clipboard automatically. They do not appear in the Terminal window. Please do not copy from there. All you have to do is start a response to this comment and then paste it again by pressing Command-V.

  At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words «Start time.» If you do not see that, but rather to see a mass of gibberish, you wait for the message "close this window". Please wait and try again.

  If personal information, such as your name or e-mail address, appear in the results, make anonymous before posting. Usually it will be not necessary.

  12. in the validation of the results, you see an error message on the web page: "you have included content in your post that is not allowed", or "the message contains invalid characters." It's a bug in the software which manages this website. Thanks for posting the results of the tests on Pastebin, then post here a link to the page you created.

  If you have an account on Pastebin, please do not select private in exposure menu to paste on the page, because no one else that you will be able to see it.

  13. When you are finished with the test, it is gone. There is nothing to uninstall or clean.

  14. This is a public forum and others can give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak for themselves, not for me. The test itself is harmless, but all that you can not be. For others who choose to run it, I do not recommend that you view the results of test on this Web site unless I ask.

• My laptop speaker grilled

  Hi all

  My laptop is a HP Pavilion g6-1220SA and it is old about 2 yearls.

  On Saturday, I was editing some videos and playback, heard a noise grinding, which was followed by a black smoke coming out of the vent to the left speaker.

  I have the PC off, removed the battery and left for a while. He had a disturbing burnt plastic smell.

  Today, I took the time to disassemble the laptop (Kudos to HP for the provision of comprehensive manuals) and it seems to me that the only thing that is not OK is the left speaker, which seems burned.

  My questions on the forum, before taking the machine to a repair center are:

  (1) what are the causes involved burn like that?

  (2) it is likely that something is wrong with your laptop and the burning speaker is a symptom rather than the main problem?

  Photo linked here:

  

  Finally, I see that the speakers are connected by a pair of white wires and reading that is soldered in. If I remove a speaker, I have to get out them both. If I do that, I will always get the 3.5 mm headphone jack sound?

  Thank you!

  @NP_Lima

  Hi all

  I replaced the speakers and the situation seems to have returned to normal.

  Later in the day, I again heard the creaking sound from the left speaker (even I heard before she grilled), all using Windows Movie Maker. I immediately cut the PC.

  I plugged in the headphones and found that the noise was there as well. My conclusion is that something has been the cause of the problem before the sound reached speakers/headphones. I decided to re - install the audio drivers.

  Previously, I had the IDT HD audio drivers. I uninstalled them and when the PC came back on the standard audio driver of Windows 8 is currently in use. I have no problems in the days that followed.

• IPhone crashed the Middle updated and now stuck on the setting of the screen!

  My Iphone has been unusually slow. So I tried to update my phone I thought it's maybe the old version of the IOS that makes my phone lag (I think I downloaded the latest version, 10. something). While trying to update my phone, it crashed at halfway. Now I'm stuck on the screen that appears when your phone has been updated (white background, that invites you to enter the password and put in place). However, after putting in my access code and attempts to connect to the wifi, my phone indicates that the wifi password is incorrect, this is not. Also, when I try to connect through mobile data it shows that "your phone could not be activated because the activation server is not reachable. Try to connect your iphone to iTunes to activate it, or try via the mobile connection in a few minutes... ». As a result, I tried connecting to ITunes and I got a different view of error message saying "ITunes only could not connect to this iphone." An unknown error occurred (0xE8000015).

• iBook Clamshell G3 stuck on the student lifestyle.

  History: towards 2006 my old primary school began to get rid of the old iMac in 1998 to 2002 G3s, iBook G3s and eMacs for some of the recent iMacs at the time. For some reason, my teacher decided to donate some of us students some of these old things (iBook G3 counterbore) but I never really took interest in using mines so far and it was stored in my attic for awhile. Now that I managed to pay 5 dollars for a new charger and adapter I finally activated the thing since 2006 and discovered a big setback on his thing.

  Make the problem: I'm stuck on the student mode (ideally the password is 123 on the screen saver lol) and I can't play Sloppy Sokoban 1.7 or look at some of the oldest educational programs on it! When my teacher gave me my he na not come with anything other than the device itself and now I need help to get the thing set to mode teaching that requires a password (whenever I press the button it remains on the page password anything) I forgot for a long time or at least get this thing a reset but I can't find a way in student mode because almost all the options for then do nothing or it will say that only the admin can access with certain privileges or something of the sort.

  Once more it's an iBook Clamshell G3 running OS 9.2 and I would like to reset the password on this issue through any possible means or backdoors and any help would be gladly appreciated.

  You will need a copy of the original software installation provided with computer discs, you can wipe the drive and install a fresh copy of the operating system. You will need to search on eBay, Amazon and Google to find the necessary discs because Apple is no longer provides them.

• Thunderbird is stuck on the start page of mail (Mac, Mavericks)

  Thunderbird has been working well on my Mac, but after the last update + restart, it seems to be stuck on the mail start page. Here is a screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/gKFjEaH.png

  When I click on 'read messages', it is said so "host contacted, the connection information," has no effect. I tried to drag the window from left to right to see if something is missing (it is not), see > > records > > all (it is already) and go > > folder > > my e-mail address > > Inbox (nothing happens).

  He can still send messages without a problem. I can't get to the Inbox.

  Any other ideas? Is this some sort of bug? Very much appreciated.

  Given that you cropped the image, I have to ask. The pane in what folders should appear seems to be present. You say that it's completely empty? Not even a single entry?

  If so,.
  Restart Thunderbird in the Help menu with the disabled modules and see if that solves the problem.

  Then, open the profile folder (there is a button in the troubleshooting information in the Help menu to do it.) close Thunderbird and delete or rename the files to panacea.dat ANDS foldertree.json

  If who disobeys, repeat and delete the session.json file. The first two are simply cache files. The last one contains some parameters of the interface as the reading pane is enabled or disabled and what tabs are open. Really, I don't think that it is an issue, but that he loss of settings is only slightly inconvenient if the other two don't work.

• Satellite T130 - stuck on the loading screen - new hard drive required

  After a message on the screen saying back up your hard drive, it will fail quickly and pressing F1 it seems so stuck on the loading screen. I'm not too good with computers. I just have to buy a new hard drive to get the laptop working again, or is much more complicated than that. My guess is this one.

  Thanks in advance for any help provided

  The first question is: did you create recovery media (USB key)?
  If do not do this if for a long time your HARD drive works OK. original recovery image is saved on the HARD drive, but you must have it USB backup that you can use to install if the disk needs to be replaced.
  Do it as soon as possible. More info on what you can read in s operating manuals.

  What to do with the HARD drive? In my opinion if long as it works it has no reason to panic. Use your laptop as usual. If you notice some performance or more error messages problems I think that you should replace it.

  Replacing the HARD drive doesn't have to be so problematic. HARD drive cover must be placed in the lower corner of your laptop. The smallest is RAM and cotyledon should be for the HARD drive. Check it out.

  Before do you that this is remove the battery and unplug your computer laptop AC adapter / CC.

  If you have no experience with such things please don't made some risky step. You can damage something.

• Satellite A300 - no sound, the "speaker" with a red icon

  Hey there!

  So, I got this Toshiba sat idle until I decided to restore it to factory settings and start using it again. I remember exactly if I didn't sound the last time I started before restoring it, but now, after three reinstalls I've still no sound, all I have is the speaker with a red x icon.

  This laptop is using Windows Vista 32 bit, I had no problem during the restore, everything has been properly installed except audio drivers. I'm sure I should have something in the sense of "Realtek High Definition Audio Driver" or something on the Manager devices, but all I have is "ATI HDMI Audio" and three devices not recognized and the only thing that appear on the output devices is "Realtek HDMI Output/ATI HDMI Audio" and say that it is not. Already tried to reinstall the Toshiba drivers, Realtek, even went as far as to try to force Windows to install the correct driver, but it ended in a BSOD.

  Then... I'm really at a loss. I really want to restore the sound, and I refuse to believe that there is no solution. The device is detected every time even though she has not recognized... Then... Am I missing something?

  Help, please. =(

  >... until I decided to restore it to factory settings
  Original recovery image contains all the necessary drivers for all hardware components, so its driver must be installed correctly.
  Can you please open the Device Manager and check the status of the sound card it.
  Please post comments.

• Laptop stops randomly and gets stuck on the saving settings

  Basically, we have some laptops 10 + this will stop randomly and get stuck on the "saving settings screens.

  Here are the different models of toshiba R500-R600 M10 M9 M5

  We changed versions of bios etc, reimagee them, even used an image of windows xp disc rather than soe.

  Hardware tests OK and customers do not something in particular, some when others when you connect using applications office, back in after a while. Some use docking stations, others not.

  All ideas

  Hello

  Just a question: are you an authorized service provider?
  I ask this question because it looks like you are an ASP because you have so many laptops and you have tested different things.

  It's really hard to say what the reason is for this but I think that in this case, you should contact Toshiba directly. Maybe it s a known issue and it can be fixed in a few minutes.
  So ask for it and wait for a response.

• Satellite L750 - stuck on the Realtek card reader

  Hello

  I just got a Toshiba Satellite L750 / 00K and I turned it on for the first time. He asked about the recovery and I chose 64-bit, and then on the settings in the box. It restarted once then I left it to charge. I came back and he was stuck on the Realtek card reader. It has been like this for maybe 2 hours, I can move the mouse but nothing has changed. He said that commissioning could take some time but I don't know if something is wrong. Help, please!

  Thank you

  Hey Buddy,

  Installation of recovery can take a very long time. In your case I'd wait a bit more.

  If it helps doesn t you should try to start installing recovery again. You can do this if you access Windows Advanced Boot menu and select Repair my computer.

• Emails stuck in the Outbox

  I was emailing and backward with a friend yesterday on my iPad when my mail out suddenly started to get stuck in the Outbox. I could still receive emails fine, but was not able to send something. I have reset everything, deleted and readded my e-mail account, back to factory settings and still nothing works. It is not a problem with my email provider because I still have my account through Google /safari and send / receive email through that, I can't use the iPad for sending mail messaging function. I can access the Outbox and delete those here but they is not enough (I get a message saying unable to send at this time).

  Does anyone have any suggestions?

  Check your e-mail account again. Make sure you have a user name and password entered for the outgoing e-mail server. Add the user name and password for the outgoing e-mail server even if it is suggested that the info is optional.

• Stuck on the screen of HP recovery and cannot start windows

  HP Pavilion
  Model: 17 - 1215dx
  
  If you need the serial number or the fn, just ask. I didn't post too much sensitive information.
  
  It was originally 10 64-bit windows... but now has 8.1 Windows 64-bit
  i5 8gig of RAM processor
  
  Literally just close the lid and open it upwards and it wouldn't boot windows. It is stuck at the screen HP saying it's diagnose my problem. Tried a soft reset and a hard reset when you remove the battery and put it again while it is unplugged. Did not help. I can't start in safe mode. I tried to do a restore which has been a success but it restarts when he says "there was a problem, restart your PC. I'm frustrated and reset a factory and the same factory reset was successful and was when he came back to 8.1 because it's the OS, I bought it with but then it still wouldn't let me in windows. I was going to try and start to repair, but if I had known this would require an administrator I'd never have done the factory reset. I know I've been reckless, but I just wanted to work. But yes, I don't know what the problem is. I feel like if it was a hardware problem is just something to keep windows to operate. Should I try a repair disk? Would that help?

  The SecretLight

  Hello;
  
  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
  
  I read your post you need to grab your laptop and wanted to help - but we need more information.

  You said that your laptop came originally with Win10, but then later, you said you tried to go back to Win8.1, you can then said, it's the original OS.

  So, who was the original - Win8.1 or Win10?

  Ask because if it came with Win8.1 and you UPGRADED to Win10, while Microsoft tells you that there is no risk in the upgrade of Win10, because they allow you to believe that you can always go back to your original OS and setup within 30 days, the ugly matter faction is that the Win10 GoBack feature turned out to be unreliable - and when it fails She can let the machines in a corrupt State - which is not always the case, it happens often enough to be a problem, but you will get no warning beforehand that he goes to the trash your PC!
  
  The Win10 upgrade is known, in some cases, corrupt the partition of recovery that are stored by the OEM that built the original machine.  It's pretty much guarantee that no HP recovery will work.
  
  What will work restores your computer to its original factory state using HP recovery media. It is a set of DVD and a CD or a USB key, which will erase the hard drive (removing all data, applications and settings, reinstall the original OS, drivers and utilities for HP. In some cases, you will be able to order a USB instead of discs.  You must order at HP; they cannot be downloaded.
  
  You can look online for recovery from the paged media related: http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers
  
  Once there, enter your product name or number. On your software page and download the drivers, select your operating system and version. Click on "Update".  If the HP recovery support is available for your computer, down near the bottom of the page, you will see an entry for the command Recovery Media-CD/DVD/USB. Click on the symbol '+' to expand this entty and click on order to press for more details.
  
  Or, if you prefer, you can do the same by contacting HP Customer Service:
  
  If you live in the United States or the Canada, details are on this page: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/phone-assist.html#section1
  
  If you live elsewhere, contact details are on this page: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-contact-us.html
  
  NOTE: once you get through, stay on the line until you are finally able to talk to someone ' one - it can take a while!

  Good luck

• T420 stuck on the startup Lenovo screen

  Hi I'm new to this community, so I would like to applogise if I have something simillar to mist (I checked some but not solved my problem).

  I have a thinkpad t420, I bought a used one. It worked great, and I bought a friend, that I trust. I installed an SSD, was usnig Linux, and everything worked for a month. But then I bought a HARD drive caddy and replaced the CD-ROM. After that my thinkpad has worked for a day (although he does not recognize the second HDD). The next day, I tried to find BIOS for some parameters and after I restarted my laptop, it was stuck on the startup Lenovo screen, reboot loop. I tried:

  -removing and replacing the caddy with the CD rom.

  -replace my SSD drive,

  -replace the RAM (two locations),

  -Reset BIOS,

  -launch a diagnostic CD (but it does not start, nor can I boot from a USB key)

  My google search showed that he could bi a problem with one of the USB pins inside one of the ports (short circuit or something like that), but I couldn't find any damage. So I'm thinkig that the motherboard may be damaged, but I can access BIOS, but it's the only thing I can do with it.

  I'd be thenkful Walker of any advice or help, before moving on to official Lenovo service for help. Thnak you!

  Z.

  You can always source a new mobo on eBay, or any part on your T420 to recover some costs.
