OS X Mavericks :: IMac Keeps Randomly Restarting After Time Machine Recovery
Jun 26, 2014Running latest Mavericks on my late 2007 iMac. Recently had to do a Time Machine recovery and since my machine randomly restarts by itself when left unattended. While monitoring Console the following message keeps repeating and suspect it is the root of the problem.....
6/26/14 5:04:46.570 PM com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[225]: (com.hp.help.tocgenerator) Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds
6/26/14 5:04:47.607 PM com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[225]: (com.hp.help.tocgenerator) Throttling respawn: Will start in 9 seconds
What this means and what would be causing ?

OS X Mavericks :: MacBook Flashing Question Mark / Crashing And Restarting
Jun 26, 2014Up until about a month ago I never had a problem with my 2011 MB pro. Then it started randomly shutting down and not starting back up when I plugged anything into the usb slot. I looked online and found that the solution was to unplug the battery connecter to the motherboard and plug it back in. And it worked! I had to do that a couple times and the problem seemed to go away until yesterday.
It just randomly shut itself down without plugging anything into the usb slot so I opened it up and did it again. Once it turned back on it started acting funny...just a flashing globe on the grey screen. After awhile I finally got it to start up slowly into my actual system. It seemed fine for the most part but a few things were kinda funny. The screen would randomly dim itself all the way like I was manually doing it and trying to use the backlit keyboard buttons would also dim the screen all the way. Plus it was still rebooting into that globe which would take forever to start up to my desktop. I tried to use disc utilities to repair and check for errors but it wasn't finding any errors.
Finally I decided to back everything up and just do a fresh mavericks install. It ended up getting stuck on the install...which I believe is because I forgot to erase the disc first. So I rebooted to safe mode and erased it, then tried another install. When I came back to it an hour later all it was doing was booting to the apple logo and then shutting off and restarting. Attempting to boot into safe mode was bringing up some weird script in the upper left corner before it shut back down.
I should also note that if it froze and I had to do I hard shut down using the power button I had to unplug that battery connecter to be able to turn it back on. Finally I got the recovery mode and once again the scan turned up no errors so I decided to erase and reinstall again. Lo and behold it shut itself down halfway through the erase and now all I get is a flashing folder with a question mark....cant go into recovery or anything.

OS X Mavericks :: IMac Slow After 10.9.4 Update - Freezes Up
Jul 1, 2014Last night I updated my iMac to Mac OS X 10.9.4. Whenever I'm using my computer, it freezes up. How can I make it fast and smooth again? I have a most recent Time Machine backup before I updated. If there is a way to gain my computer's speed again? If not, can I possibly go back to 10.9.3?

Aug 26, 2014Since upgrading to Mavericks my Mac has been running pretty slow. I run Logic Pro 9 and Ableton 8 music programs on my computer quite often and that's where i notice significant lag. I understand those are heavy programs, but even when Safari is open and I try to open Finder there is lag time before the window actually opens. When I restart my computer, it runs a little better, but as soon as I begin to open other programs, the lag begins and will continue even after I close them.
I upgraded from Snow Leopard and never had any issues- it ran extremely smooth under the most stressful conditions with all the current memory and hard drive space, cpu, etc. I

OS X Mavericks :: Time Machine Backup Slow Even After Restarting In Safe Mode
Jul 1, 2014I have an extremely slow Time Machine backup. I've gone through the motions and tried to resolve the issue by doing the suggested restart in Safe Mode.I don't use Norton Symantec but I didn't the Norton Remove script through the Console already. I don't run any anti-virus software. This started when I was backing up to at Time Capsule. I backed up to the TC for years before this started. I then moved to backing up (started fresh) to a external HD connected via USB. I have a 2010 Mac Mini with OS X 10.9 (Latest Version)

Jun 28, 2014I have Flash Player set to update automatically.
For the last month or so I've been getting pop up messages on my system that I have to update Flash Payer.
I click the link, download the installation dmg, double click the installer, 4/5ths of the way through it says it can't complete the operation. (I close all browsers etc. )
Google Chrome is running the latest version of Flash as it does it automatically (v14), but Safari and presumably anything else that uses Flash is running v13.

IMac :: Waking From Sleep Or Restarting After Shut Down
Nov 15, 2009My 24in iMac is waking from sleep after about 5 seconds every time, as well as restarting itself after I shut down. This problem started early yesterday evening, and so I did the usual: resetting the SMC/PRAM/NVRAM with no luck. I checked console for messages and found lots of references to imagneto_user_agent (I'd installed iMagneto shortly before and then deleted it as it didn't seem to be working properly). With some help from another user I managed to delete all the hidden/locked folders and files connected with this app using a combination of Trash It and fiddling in Terminal.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: IMac Constantly Restarting - Screen Just Stays Black
Feb 18, 2012I have a 24inch iMac 3.06ghz and seems to be stuck restarting. It will not get to the any screen (just stays black) and constantly restarts, the chime seems to get quieter each time, after about 6 times it comes back to full volume but will not get any further in the start up process.
I restarted it myself because the screen was flickering very quickly and seemed to freeze (this is the first time I have encountered that). I had to power down by the button at the back, then restart using the power button and now won't start up. All software fully up to date. Running Lion.

Jun 26, 2014my work computer (Windows), but my 2012 iMac that I've had for 2 years has worked flawlessly up until recently. A few days ago it started taking forever to display files in finder. I had to keep relaunching, and it would freeze. I tried the workaround that was posted here but that didn't work either. It went away for a few days, but last night it really came back with a vengeance. The relaunch finder trick only showed the current folder, while navigating to other folders would simply show the loading icon forever.
Also, my iMac was shutdown for over an entire day yesterday, and when I turned it on the " Your computer restarted because of a problem". came up. I've never experienced this problem before, but after 3-4 tries it finally logged in to the Home screen. This is when I noticed the above (finder problems) returning from a few days ago after being absent. The finder issues continued, so I restarted the mac, and it just kept cycling over and over (reboot, try to load, auto-reboot, etc.).
Is this an issue with the HDD? I did a disk utility check the other day and it said everything was in great shape.

OS X Mavericks :: Can't Update To 10.9.3 - Don't Have Permission (513)
Jun 4, 2014I've been trying for weeks to update my MacBook Pro to either OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 or 10.9.3 but it isn't working. When I open Software Update, it tells me that I have an update available (OS X Update Combined 10.9.3), but when I click Update and agree to restarting, it says "An error has occurred. The file couldn't be saved because you don't have permission.(513)" Additionally, the update is listed under Updates Installed in the Last 30 Days. However, when I click on About This Mac, it says that I am running 10.9.1.
I tried downloading the update from the Apple Website (OSXUpdCombo10.9.3.dmg) and after installing/restarting, when I login and click About This Mac, it still says 10.9.1.

Sep 12, 2014Updated a 2008 15" MacBook Pro to Mavericks, then Apple store updated incrementally. Superdrive now ejects any disc put into it, external Plextor combo drive fails to recognize already burned media. Have reset NVRAM and SMC several times, done a re-install of 10.9.4 and tried several preferences related suggestions from web searches. Bluetooth on/off, etc. Plextor drive can be mounted by Parallels VMs (Linux Mint 14.17 and Ubuntu) and writes if owned by VM.
This issue started intermittently from Mavericks 10.9.2 and is now total at 10.9.4. Media disc's do not start iTunes post install and in case of external drive are not recognized as written media.
