MacBook Air :: Can't Turn On After Maverick Update
Aug 27, 2014
I just finish update my MacBook Air to Maverick and it turned off to restart. But it did not. When you try to turn it on it shows you Apple logo, seems like loading and after few seconds it turns off automatically.
Had my MacBook Air for Christmas last year (2010), I've done the new update on it and now it won't turn on last night there was a world sign flashing when I turned it on instead of the apple sign.
I had to force it down during the installation cause in hang up. When I tried a restart the grey screen comes up as usually and the small wheel spins underneath. It spins for hrs. I tried the safe mode but it shows that all is good with the HD. Bootcamp works normally as I am writing from that part right now.
How do I reset the tracking on my mackbook pro? Also I know it's not the OS system because it was working fine until yesterday. I can even use safari because of this activity.
I am trying to install osx maverick on an external ssd before i phsically put it into my macbook. I ran the installer and selected the external ssd and it seemed to go alright until my computer restarted. Then when i hold option it shows my current hard drive but its called install osx and recovery. my computer no longer will boot up like normal. I dont know whats going on,
Had to wipe my hard drive and re install Lion from Internet Recovery. Am downloading Maverick to upgrade now but computer running so slow and colored "progress wheel" on the screen every time I try do something. Had never seen that wheel before now. How do I speed it up other than downloading and installing Maverick.?
I had problems with the existing installation (10.6.8) ==> only Safari. Therefor I mad the update to the current version today, the problem is different but Safari stays effected. A Reinstallation of Maverik is not solving the issue ==> the same error stays alive ...
A friend suggested backing up only my necessary files on my Lion based MBP, wiping the disc clean (erasing), and then installing Maverick. He says it will clean out any old junk and make my MBP run really fast.
Info: MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.5), Mid-2010-17", I7 - 8GB RAM, 500GB
My macbook onward restart when waking up from sleep, but no error message appear . Plus all my program and website reload back as before. Only problem is why it restart occasionally and it is normal. I don't have that symptom on earlier. Now using maverick 10.9.2
I bought a new MacBook Air with Maverick OS X 10.9.4, but now I can't open my old pages documents. What can I do? My old MacBook was pre 2008 so everything is iworks 08
The problem is this: when I try to turn off my IMac, the desktop disappears and the display becomes white, without anything else. It may stay in this way for several hours, maybe days.
I only can turn it off by pushing the on/off button for ten seconds. The start up is also very slow.
I am on Mountain Lion (10.8.2) now, and my Microsoft Office 2008 works fine. I am concerned to upgrade to Maverick (10.9.2), and loose my compatibility with PPT, etc. any thoughts?
Just a couple days ago keep in dock no longer works. Rebooting resets everything. I tried deleting the preferences file for dock, no luck. Same problem. I tried restoring it from an earlier time. No luck. Still does not work. I am using the latest versions of everything. Oh, and yes I use and have tried and checked antivirus programs. No virus. I've tried removing them. Still doesn't work.
I just updated my iMac from Lion to Maveric. I was very disapointed that all the Master Templates HD are crashing FCP 7. Its amazing that Apple did not fix this issue with FCP7 upgrade. To get FCP X is out of the question.
But I can turn it off, if I choose "Share my internet connection for other units". (I don't know, if this is the right text in english, because my OSX is in german)
2) Now Bluetooth is OFF:
But I can't turn it on, because the checkbox "ON" is inactive.
It turns only on, if I choose "New Unit"(?). Then there is a new window, that says, that this is only possible if Bluetooth turns on. If I say OK, bluetooth turns ON.
Back to 1)
What's the problem. Why is this f* checkbox for turning bluetooth on and off inactive?
This is not a hardware problem, because I can have stable bluetooth connections.
I did a smc and am pram reset. But it doesn't help.
