MacBook Pro :: Video Of Intel X25-M G2 160 GB + Snow Leopard Program Start Up Time?
Aug 28, 2009I couldn't wait any longer. I was going to wait until tomorrow, but I decided to test it out today. The following is a short video clip of the X25-M in action under Snow Leopard (on my late 2008 uMBP 2.53 GHz, 4 GB RAM).
It's not much of a benchmark. I simply selected everything in the Applications folder and hit open to start all the programs at the same time.
Needless to say, I am happy with the results!

This video is loading Photoshop, Illustrator and Soundbooth all at the same time. And then individually.

The video quality is not the best. It's on my old Olympus C5050z digicam.

OS X :: Time Machine Fail To Start?
Aug 13, 2009It does not start the backup process when scheduled time passed.
symptoms:
1.Example: TM says Next Backup: Today, 10:21 AM, the backup did not start, the time changed to the next bacup schedule time 11:20. No other message. When I look at the log, there are no activity at all.
2. I can request a backup "Backup Now", it backs up normaly. It updates the time for the next schedule backup.
3. For some unknow reason the TM may do a backup and schedule the next backup, but when the time due for the next backup, it will not start the job, it just reschedule the next back up time.
4. The TM disk icon will not stay as the blue time machine icon. It switch to the regular yellow disk icon.
Desktops :: What Is Best Start Up And Shut Down Time...
Nov 27, 2009I am using Mac 0S X Leopard, mac mini and facing the following problem:
1) System is taking too long time(10 - 15 min ) for start up and shut down.
2) It is asking every time to set up the current time as and when the system starts every time.
3) When accesing the system preferences , it gets crashed when using index Spotlight.
4) Finder gets relaunched itself for every 60-90 seconds when accessing folder Applications or Utilities etc..
5) The Spotlight is indexing itself, When i tried to stop the indexing of the spotlight using system preference, it gets crashed.
My system got its logic board replaced by the apple once.
OS X :: Start Time Machine From Scratch?
Sep 26, 2009Over the past week i have been having big problems with my Time Machine backup drive. My backup drive is an Iomega Helium 500GB partioned as HFS+ Journaled.
I usually backup every two days so i plugged into my macbook pro on wednesday night. I left it for about 15 minutes and came back expecting the backup to be done. Instead I found it was deleting old backups? I thought this was odd as the drive had 150 or so GB free and i only had a few for songs and documents since my last backup on monday. After another 15 minutes i returned to find it was backing up 120GB! I had no idea where it had come up with that insane amount of data. so i checked my mac's hard drive space to find i had 236GB free just like it has been around that for a few weeks. I let it back up and unplugged it later that night. I forgot to backup on friday so i plugged it in this morning. It was deleting old backups again and backing up a further 140GB!
I have now come to the conclusion that i should wipe the drive and start again.
How can I do this?
Software :: Time Machine App Won't Start?
Sep 18, 2010My Time Machine will not start at all (for restoring). No errors in the Console. I tried reinstalled it with Pacifist. I repaired the permissions. I tried delete all prefs (as I don't know the exact plist for this app.) and caches.
It's working when I log in to another account.
Mac Pro :: It Takes Long Time To Start Up
Mar 30, 2012My Mac Pro takes two minutes to start up. It is also sluggish during normal operation. I have Parallels and a external hard drive installed. Do either of these contribute to this problem? Or is there a program that can be used to defrag the hard drive. (I recall having similar problems with my IBM computer. When it was defragged the performance of the unit improved).

OS X V10.7 Lion :: It Crashes Every Time I Start It
May 16, 2012I have bought this Mac six moths ago. Now for unknown reason, it crashes when it starts booting. Before it crashes, it shows the Apple logo, then it shows the Apple logo with a loading bar. I guess it try's to restore the system... I don't know. But when the loading bar starts loading, the computer crashes.

OS X :: Time Machine Crashed Computer Now It Won't Start Up?
Feb 21, 2009My roommate just lost his data, so I realized I needed to back up. I plugged in an external hard drive (it was an internal that we put into casing bought from OWC, if that matters). I wasn't thinking about Time Machine but it displayed a message, so I said yes, backup onto the hard drive. Then while it was backing up I was just reading a document, the machine crashed. I swiveled my desk to get something and this caused the external hard drive to fall, for a second it was dangling from the USB. (I'm not sure if that's relevant but.)
I first restart (held down the power button), since nothing was happening. At that point the hard drive was making a weird rhythmic clicking sound. Then it wouldn't start up! I tried this twice. Blank gray screen. I reset the PRAM (was that a bad idea?) and when it started again, I get a folder icon with a blinking question mark, over a gray background. Then I freaked out because this was what happened to my roommate, so I haven't touched the computer since.
What could have gone wrong? What to do now? (Local help centers only open on Monday..) Is it worth it to take a train for an hour to go to an apple store right now?

Apr 11, 2012For reasons I cannot understand, Safari 5.1.5 on Lion has begun to fail at start-up. On every occasion I try to start I get a page that says "Safari Quit Unexpectedly." The Problem Report suggests Restarting, but the same thing occurs. Should I uninstall Safari and reinstall from an Apple download?

OS X :: Login Server Error Message Every Time I Start My Mac?
Feb 21, 2009Every time I power up my Mac Pro, I get the attached message upon start-up.
If I click on 'Relaunch' it does nothing.
I have reported it, but nothing has changed.
Clicking on 'ignore' makes it go away, but it reappears every time I power up my CPU.
AppleCare didn't even know what it meant either!
Any suggestions? What is "LOGINserver" anyway?

Aug 19, 2010after months of going back and forth I finally went with an entry level iMac which is perfect in every way. I think... I don't remember the start up time taking almost a minute to cycle from the blank gray screen to gray screen with the Apple on it. Tuesday and yesterday it started up much faster (at least 30 seconds). ere's my some of the hard drive info:

The only thing I've done since Tuesday is add two songs in iTunes to test the cd-rom drive. I just ran the extended Apple Hardware Test and everything is fine. Given that my 20" refurb died within 3 months and I returned 2 iMacs prior that one, I'm a little nervous. Is this normal for a Western Digital hard drive to take nearly a minute start up from gray screen to grey screen with the apple?
Software :: Start Up Taking A Long Time On Powerbook

It starts up with the normal gray screen with the apple logo in the middle then the screen turns blue for a while then I finally see my desktop.

OS X Mavericks :: After Install Takes Longer Time To Start Up Mac
Jun 23, 2014Two days ago i installed Mavericks on my MacBook Pro and since i did it, my mac runs very slowly. The pointer goes slowly and it takes a lot of time to load the programs (safari, word, etc.). It takes also longer time to start up my mac. I've checked on the activity monitor and the system activity amount is so high, around 80%. But what i've discovered is that when i plug in the charger, my mac suddenly runs faster and i've checked again the system activity is only around 1-2%. How can i make my mac runs faster even when i don't plug in the charger?Â
