Intel Mac :: Apple Hardware Test And OS X Lion 10.7.3 - No DVDs
May 7, 2012How can I run AHT on my iMAC 21.5 inch, MID 2011 and Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3 (11D50)? There were no DVDs in the package, no restart key-stroke combination connected to internet-aht, no aht is included in the package I bought and downloaded from Apstore. One of the 4 rear USB ports seems to be death from the very first moment. I would like to use the AHT to see if this is some SW misconfiguration or is it a HW problem.

Apr 9, 2012I have a 17" unibody MBP (early 2009, specs below). It was running hotter than usual the other day, so I F2 booted into AHT to run a diagnostic. The status box within AHT showed 1 second into the 1st pass, and never got beyond that. Several seconds after that status message was displayed, the cursor froze. The time counter never advanced after that, and although I waited a long time, nothing happened. The test froze.Â
I've tried it several times more. It once worked, but every other time has frozen. Checking the "extended test" box, or trying to run in loop mode has made no difference - still freezes at "1 second".Â
I've had this machine for 3 years, OS's Leopard through Lion, and this has never happened before. I last ran a test, successfully, in January. I've not changed any components or suffered any damage since then. Memtest (ver 4.22) says my RAM is fine. (I ran this because the first portion of the AHT is the RAM component.) Aside from the aforementioned overheating episode, which disappeared, my machine's been fine.Â

OS X :: MBP 10.4.11 - Running Apple Hardware Test Without DVD
Jan 14, 2009I have a busted DVD drive, and I need to run the AHT utility. I heard it was in the /system/Library/CoreServices/ folder. It's not for me. And so, pressing "d" or "f2" on a reboot doesn't work. Anything I can do to run AHT without getting my DVD drive repaired first?

Nov 25, 2009I'm running an extended Apple Hardware Test on my 4Gb MacBook Pro. It's been running 50 minutes and isn't even 25% completed going by the progress bar. It's been on the same step (memory pass number 2) for pretty much this entire time. Is this a sign that something is wrong with my MacBook Pro? It was purchased new in June of this year.

Apr 7, 2012I purchased my Macbook Pro (Early 2011) 2ghz i7 edition, about 4 months ago now,
Earlier today my MacBook Pro ran a grey bar update during start up started up & ran a little slower until I restarted afterwards. I was concerened until the restart, however I am no longer concerned. My main issue is that now I can't seem to correctly follow the instructions to successfully start an apple hardware test. I have previously owned a Mac mini, Powermac G5 Dual 1.8ghz and Powermac Quad G5 and I have always been able to successfully run apple hardware tests on them.
I held down the "D" key during startup prior to the grey screen and I tried plugging in a ethernet cable, the powercable and a USB keyboard all to no avail.

MacBook Pro :: Will It Run Normally After Use The Apple Hardware Test
Jun 3, 2012I've been having issues with my 2011 MacBook Pro, I just keep getting a weird error popup but it always flashes up and goes away before I can read it. My Mac has also even running a bit slower lately and I know that I can do the Apple Hardware Test to check out that all the hardware is functioning properly. But will my Mac continue to run normally after I do the AHT? Like, will I be able to use it as I was before?

Power Mac G5 :: Bad Ram Identified By Apple Hardware Test?
Nov 16, 2007After a lot of erratic behavior with my dual 2ghz g5, I ran the apple hardware test. When testing RAM it gives me the following error message each time I run the extended test:

I'm wondering how to interpret this exactly which RAM is bad (more specifically where is it?) I'm wondering if there is a diagram out there so I can relate this an exact location on my computer.
OS X :: Apple Rapidly Seeding Mac OS X 10.5.3 Test Builds
Apr 1, 2008The next security and maintenance release for Apple's Leopard operating system could arrive sooner than later if the company maintains its current cadence, which has seen two successive pre-release builds land in the hands of developers in just five days. On the heels of the first external test build labeled Mac OS X 10.5.3 build 9D10 and released privately late last week, the Mac maker on Tuesday followed up with build 9D11, which adds nearly 20 more fixes and code corrections, bringing the new total expected with software's release to nearly 100. Among the most recent improvements, according to people familiar with the ongoing testing process, are fixes to AirPort connection issues and problems with the MacBook Air's sleep functionality. Other fresh fixes target Time Machine, Spaces layering and preferences, graphics corruption, display issues within Mail.app, Back to My Mac communication issues, and Automator quirks when interacting with Mail.app.
As was the case with Friday's pre-release distribution, Apple reportedly asked that its developer community focus their ongoing testing efforts on two dozen core system components. These include, but are not limited to, AirPort, AppleScript, Audio, Dashboard, Directory Services, Dock, DVD Player, Finder, Graphics, Installer, Printing, and VoiceOver. Mac OS X 10.5.3 Update, which currently weighs in at a hefty 410+ MB in Delta form and 530+ MB in Combo form, will mark the third update to Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard since the software made its official debut in late October. While those people familiar with the ongoing testing process have been unable to provide a target release date, it's presume the update is being groomed for distribution sometime in April or May.

OS X :: How To Do Network Hardware Test At Apple Store...
Jan 8, 2011I'm wondering if anyone has any information on the network boot Apple hardware test done in the stores - how it might compare to the OS9-looking hardware test that comes with the machines, or would have been used over USB if an Apple tech were working on it. The network version looks radically different from either the CD that shipped with my machine, or the ASD CD.

MacBook Pro :: OS X (10.7.5) - Apple Hardware Test Not Loading
Aug 30, 2014I have a MacBook Pro (17-inch, Late 2011)Â using OSX 10.7.5
Trying to run Apple hardware test as my computer keeps crashing, or shutting down 30min in.  I restart while holding down "D" and nothing comes up. takes a while to startup, but then goes straight to desktop. What am I doing wrong? I'm ethernet connected to internet. When I bought the computer I installed an SSD HD. I remember when needing to install new software on the new drive it was a nuisance since the computer didn't actually ship with any software CDs. Had to do it over the internet somehow. The computer didn't have any problems before so never had to use AHT until now.Â
secondary question. I also reset SMC, by pressing left side shift+control+option+power key after shut down, but didn't get much response out of that either. no sound, or signal that what I did actually reset SMC. How would I know it reset or not?

OS X :: Apple Asks To Test Fonts In Latest Mac OS X 10.6.3 Beta
Mar 16, 2010Apple on Tuesday afternoon pushed out another private beta of Mac OS X 10.6.3, asking its developer community to test font compatibility and stability alongside a handful of other components that have been in need of evaluation for the past several weeks.
Those other components include iCal, QuickTime and graphics drivers, according to people familiar with the beta software. The last private beta, distributed March 5th and labeled build 10D567, also listed those components as focus areas, in addition to Rosetta and third party printer drivers.
When it's released later this month, Mac OS X 10.6.3 will bundle an update to QuickTime X that improves security and compatibility while also enhancing overall reliability of the media software.
The Snow Leopard update will also include tweaks that enhance the performance of Apple's 64-bit Logic pro audio suite and deliver better compatibility with third-party printers and OpenGL-grounded applications.
Other fixes baked into the release target issues with mail messages displaying the incorrect background color and problems copying files to a shared Windows volume.
The latest beta carries build number 10D571 and weighs in around 700MB.[ View this article at AppleInsider.com ]
Mac Pro :: Apple Hardware Photoshop Test (Task Timing)
Jul 7, 2005Using Photoshop CS or CS2 (or PS 7)
1.) Download Image from [URL]
2.) Save it to computer and then open it up in Photoshop
3.) From there please apply a 'radial blur' with the settings at:
Amount = 100
Blur Method = Spin
Quality = Best
Using a stop watch / ps timer see how long it takes to apply this filter. I just want to see what mac systems can do, be it a powermac dual 2.7 or an older dual 1.8 or even an ibook. Please list your mac system, cpu details, amount of ram and the time it took for the test, just so we can get an idea of how different mac machines handle this task.

I know firmware password stops you from using the "c" or "d" during the boot, and I haven't seen any alternate way to start the Hardware Test (I managed to use the Disk Utility by booting to the DVD, but there wasn't an option for the hardware test that I found there).

MacBook Pro :: How Long Does Extended Apple Hardware Test Take
Nov 25, 2009I'm running one on my mid-2009 15" MacBook Pro with 4Gb RAM. It appears to be taking forever as it tests memory. It's been on Pass Number 2 for around 30 minutes now. The progress bar is either completely stalled or moving VERY slowly. Is this normal for the extended AHT? This is the first time I've run the extended test. I ran the quick test just prior to this one and it returned no errors.

Intel Mac :: Screen Gone Black - How To Run Apple Hardware Test
May 18, 2012My early 2008 24" has suddenly developed a problem - screen has gone black (initially it was 'black' with backlight on, now not even a backlight) The machine has Lion installed but it came with 10.5.2. I can access the machine via screen sharing & it all runs fine so I want to determine what is wrong with it. I dropped in my original grey system discs, pressed 'D' on start-up, nothing. It seems Lion no longer supports Hardware Test from discs on older machines. How I can run hardware test on this machine?

Edit: OK, I see that it should be located on the original installation disks. However, I never had those - my Mac was once repaired under extended warranty (new harddrive), and they kindly upgraded me from Tiger to Leopard all those years ago.

Mac Mini :: Kernel Panics, Sudden Log-out And Apple Hardware Test?
Apr 3, 2012I have been experiencing Kernel Panics and Sudden logouts twice a week. I thought it was strange, because my boss just bought me the MacMini with 8gb RAM preinstalled.I want to solve the problem, but I don't want to send my machine to support in vain.(because the MacMini is actually owned by the institution I work in, and those things take time). So I ran some diagnoses I heard about on the internet, but I don't know what they mean, or what I should do with it. I made two kind of diagnoses:I tried to run Quick Apple Hardware Test.I tried to run Mac version of memtest in single-user mode. I made both diagnoses with each memory separatedly, in every slot combination possible, and both memories together. Everytime I tested both memories together, AHT froze while testing memory, and memtest resulted in failures.Everytime I tested a memory module separatedly, memtest and AHT gave no errors. Is there any explanation for my Mac Mini not like my both memory modules together? I updated OS X to 10.7.3 with combo update, and FileVault(don't know it makes any difference). I made all tests with no peripherals other than a DVI monitor on HDMI out, a Magic Mouse, and a Apple (wired) Keyboard. What should I do?Should I send it to support and spend my next month without a machine?
