crash

What I know is my Mail program on my Mac died instantly when I tried to start it. I rebooted and that didn't help. I could get to the mail servers via my iPad and I deleted about five pieces of junk mail that had come. The iPad doesn't have Rules (I guess) but the Mac does. That "solved" my...

Hi, I'm new here and looking for help. I have seen people diagnose faults by looking at the crash report but sorry to say that I have tried to follow what was going on and found myself lost. I have a G5 that randomly shows a grey screen with a message to shut it down. It happens perhaps twice...

I probably know the answer to this but hope I don't. In the less than capable hands of a PC repair shop, the techs were trying to transfer my music library on Itunes to a hard disk to make DVD's to transfer to my daughters new pc. They called and said they couldn't get the Imac to boot. Only the...

I bought my powerbook less than a year ago and it had been working perfectly. I don't carry it around with me anywhere, so it has always resided on the roll-away desk that I sit at almost every day. It has never been dropped, kicked, punched, slapped, shot, hammered, stabbed, or anything...

Some of my emails that I have already downloaded and read have disappeared leaving me with a message that says, "The message from ......concerning......has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it." I cannot move or delete these messages...

So i finally got around to updating to OS X 10.4.3,. I had finished downloading the update, and restarted. My powerbook crashed during the restart, and when i rebooted all i can get is the grey screen. I've tried disc utility and booting from a disk, but to no avail. Anyone have any...

I have a g4 power mac 786mb ram, 466mhz, 28GB hardrive space. When I purchased the mac it was operating on Os 9, so I installed Osx 10.2. I didn't have any problems until I installed pro tools, now the computer crashes everytime I launch it. Do you know what the problem is. What can I do to get...

I have been experiencing garageband crashes as follows: The program starts as normal. I can ever open the loop browser and add tracks but as soon as I select the inserted track and attempt to copy it to add another measure, the program stops and I return to the desktop. Sometimes I will get...

Greetings. My G4 power mac desktop (using 10.4) keeps crashing... i think it MAY be a ram issue, haven't isolated it yet. I realize that's the larger problem but for now: Often as i'm downloading to Netscape 7 my email from Verizon, the computer crashes. What's maddening is that after...
