MacBook Pro :: Whole Computer Locked Up - OS X Not Start
Apr 28, 2010I was just using my 13" MBP and using Parallels when the whole computer locked up. I had to turn off the computer by holding down the on/off button. Unfortunately, now the computer will not start up in OS X. Interestingly, I had linked my Windows side of the computer so that it can be opened in Parallels or Bootcamp; I can get the Bootcamp Windows side to start up with no problems (I'm using it now to write this).

Feb 2, 2012I am new to MAC and in this forum.Lately I've had problems with my Mac Book Pro (15 "OSX 10.7.3) especially now that I made the OSX update. Is inhibited if the computer is idle and we must force it off, holding down the power button.Â
When the computer is restarted, usually three things happens:
1) The computer boots normally
2) Shown instead of the apple icon, an icon with a "-" and never starts, or
3) It shows a progress bar process that takes a long time in advance and then boots normally.I need to know how to do a clean install and reinstall the programs useful, considering that I have no Lion operating system on a DVD, as this was bought from Apple online store.

MacBook :: Computer Crashed - Greeted Upon Start Up With Gray Screen
Jun 10, 2010Allright so my girlfriend accidentally spilled a drink on her macbook the other day. We thought we had cleaned it off and everything was fine. We were mistaken. During normal usage the computer crashed so we restarted it and are now greeted upon startup with a gray screen and a gray application folder with a question mark on it flashing repeatedly. What is the course of action guys? I'm not computer whiz and I'm wondering if we can fix this ourselves without having to take it in for repair. And FYI she does not have apple care

MacBook :: Start Skype While In Windows, The Computer Crashes / Blue Screen?
Feb 19, 2009Everytime I start skype while in windows, the computer crashes and I get the blue screen... I think it has to do with the sound drivers, because when I'm using msn messenger also in windows suddenly the microphone mutes itself.
I tryed updating the realtek drivers with no help, updated skype, no help, I uninstalled the realtek drivers and the laptop did not crash anymore but I had no sound, any advice like for example how to get the microsoft drivers to work on the laptop without using realtek??
For whatever reason with the microsoft drivers,I think the sound is trying to come out of the digital outlet, I can see the ligth inside the jack, but nothing comes out of the laptop's speakers...
By the way, the vista version is Home basic.

2 X 500GB 7200 ATA
ATI RAEDON HD 2600 XT 256MB dual link DVI
16X superdrive
Computer froze today, it was running fine this morning. I went to restart it and now it won't restart. No history of this happening before. It will shut down if I force it, but it will not boot up. After I turn it on, it starts up as normal with a chime and goes to the grey screen with the Apple Logo and spinning wheel. But then the Apple Logo becomes a Circle with a Slash through (international "no" symbol), the spinning wheel remains spinning. And then it just stays like that wheel spinning and "no" symbol. I've tried starting it holding down "shift", holding "option-command-p-r", holding "d", holding "c", and holding "option"... with the same results each time. I ran Disk Warrior on all the disks and tried staring up with no external drives and I've cleaned it thoroughly of dust.

OS X :: Button On Top Right Corner Does Not Start Computer
Feb 6, 2009I am new to Mac, I always had PC's, but yesterday a friend gave me a 20th anniversary Mac, he said it's old and haven't been used for ages. Well, I pulled it out of the box and thought this is a Cool Piece of Computer, plugged it in, but couldn't find the" On button". I did some research on the net and watched a couple of Video's on YouTube, first I was very surprised that this is some kind of fancy Mac, certainly looks good, keeping in mind the age, this was for sure way ahead of his time.
Long story short, the "Start button" on the right side top corner of the keyboard does not start the computer, to start it, I have to unplug the keyboard and reconnect it. After this is done, it appears to me that the thing is running fine, sound, video, tv, radio, touchpad, all the keys from the keyboard, everything works great besides starting the machine. One more thing, the Bios battery is bad, I had no change yet of getting a new one, could this be the reason?

Feb 25, 2008My comp. has worked perfectly, Then I installed some updates, Itunes i think? And the comp. Shut down, and when it restarts it works for a min or two, then freezes, and i get the beach ball, that just spins around and around forever.
if I don't try to open anything, or do anything when i restart it, it will just shut down, and restart, then when it comes to the Grey screen with the apple and the little circle below it, the circle looks all pixilated, and just freezes
that is the version its on (Taken two days ago, and sent to a buddy for other reasons completely)

May 11, 2012Powermac G4 MDD Originally had 2 hard drives -- 60GB (jumpered as master) and 40GB (jumpered as slave)
The 40 GB failed and the 60 GB was diagnosed as failing so I purchased used Seagate 160 GB ATA/100 Hard driveÂ
I installed the new 160 GB Hard drive in place of the 40 GB HD and used SuperDuper to clone the still working 60 GB drive. The files were all copied to the drive and the drive showed up on the desktop as a hard drive icon, and it was recognized in the System Profiler. However, I could not select it as the startup drive from the System Prefs window.Â
I then took out the 60GB drive and replaced it with the 160 GB drive jumpered as cable select and now the computer won't start up (flashing question mark).Â

MacBook :: Unable To Use System With Battery / Computer Shuts Down Hwen Start From Battery
Apr 18, 2008My battery needed replacing for a couple of months before i dropped it from about knee level onto a sidewalk. After the drop I got the not charging icon. I thought maybe the battery had just finally died. so I did not panic about the no charge. The laptop works fine when plugged in to power with the old battery on or no battery at all. Not at all when unplugged.
When I put the brand new battery on the lap top, the computer shuts down halfway through boot up. I tried holding the power button down through boot up reset, as well as removing all power (plug and battery) and holding down the power button for 10 seconds reset.
