Between 5:15 and 5:32, it might seem somewhat confusing. However, look for the bar with apple sign and click on Utilities, pressing touchpad, and from the dropdown list, select Terminal. Next, use the keyboard and type down the first code and press Return, and the second code and press Return. The rest is clear.
hi Ali, when I power on, command +R it always goes to internet recovery, it never allows me to go to the utility options you cover in the video Dell dellthecomputer@gmail.com 469.516.5386 27dec2018
Ali, even holding Command + R forever still nothing happens, only internet recovery. After internet recovery has started(inputting my internet info) it eventually goes away then only white screen. I really appreciate you taking time to respond. Dell
Help me please my mac now works after i reinstalled os but my keyboard types symbols instead of letters i cant do anything please help macbook pro mac os x mavericks
Hold command, R and power button to start up macOS recovery. Go to utilities then click on terminal Type the first phrase and then hit return/enter, then type the second phrase and hit return/enter. Don't forget to put the spaces in for each phrase, there are two spaces in each phrase. First phrase: cd /Volumes/Macintosh\ HD/var/db/caches/opendirectory Then hit return/enter Second phrase: mv ./mbr_cache ./mbr_cache-old Then hit return/enter Go to the Apple sign and hit restart Good luck 7:41 7:41 7:41 7:41
Error Code 1 { SOLVED } For all persons they cant type the first code you will replace all this "/Macintosh\ HD/ " with your hardisk name exemple your hard disk name is " Apple " you should type : cd /Volumes/apple/var/db/caches/opendirectory . Thanks ❤️ From moroccan Men 🇲🇦
My iMac just gets stuck at the end of the boot screen bar. Left it going overnight but it keeps getting stuck at 99% so I tried it in all the safe mode hotkey variations and it's not having it. Wont go over that last hump. 😩
Thank you very much.My external drive stopped booting up.I think it happened because zi cut the power before it had booted down.This is the second time it happened , the first time had had to reinstall.Your solution worked like a charm.I was wondering if it could be the drive WD ? THANK YOU, YOU JUST SAVED MY DAY AND MY COMPOSITIONS.
I’m just about to try your last suggestion now. I have a 2011 mbpro which won’t boot up except in password reset and recovery mode. I hope this last solution works! Thanks for you very clear videos. Just what I needed 👍
Works like magic everytime my macbook won't let me sign in. Been following it for the second time. If the codes don't work for you, you're missing something: Add space after 'cd', before 'HD' on the first code. Add space after 'mv' on the second code. Hope that helps.
Hi, My Apple Imac 27 Inch Crashing Randomly, Going in boot loop,Getting Vertical Lines, Some times Green Screen, Some times blue. I try all solution. Safe mode, Recovery, Reinstall OS,Re install Old OS, Install Windows... Went through million solutions and forms to make it work Only reflow GPU card solution work.Open Imac take out graphic card,Clean & wash properly all thermal paste, Heat Oven 200 C. Keep GPU card on small Aluminium balls, Keep in oven for 10 minute. Let it cool for 30 minute, Get new thermal paste not conducting electric type apply small amount on GPU & all other black component jut like doing painting . Do not apply thick layer. Just enough to cover. Like paint on wall. Tight all screws properly firm & reinstall card. It works 1000%. I have wasted many week & spend lot of money. All the best.......Thanks

Hi Ali, After updating my Mac ,my password will not work even after resetting using vault recovery. Could you please tell me what the issues I need to look into. Thanks
I just did one command and it booted up 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽thank sir. Continue your good work am even subscribing right now and hitting the like button 😇😇
@@tristandorsey4478 you guys should also check if your issue is the cause of a faulty gpu. if you have the old macbook pros, it's a serious issue with those models and there's a fix for turning off 1 of its gpu(the faulty one that overheats and preventing your laptop from booting up). check out this video for instructions: watch?v=nFFPk3SeQbQ&t=363s (look at the 2 highest rated comments if youre using OS sierra)
@@CheeseSpliffs hi, can you help me please, my MacBook say "PCI configuration begin" when I put into verbose mode and stuck in there, any help for me? Please....
Sen Suryo I’m not really an expert, I’m just very familiar with the gpu issue and how to work around it. If yours is the same problem with mine, then I’d suggest using the link I shared. But if you’re just having issues accessing verbos mode, IDK if newer OS input the mode differently and that might be your problem? Or you can try googling and see if anyone out there is having the same issue when trying to use verbos. Sorry I couldn’t be of more help.
Hi Mr Ali Mirmedhi thanks for what you are doing. I tried the disk utility option but it came up with the message after running first aid : problems with the partition map which might prevent it from booting. I tried reinstalling Os but it seems because I didn't leave enough hd space on the HD.it is refusing to install. Checked the file consistency as well and came up with this message : Keys out of order (4,91244) Records 33 and 34 ( 0 based) ; offsets 0x049B and 0x04B4 Invalid sibling link (4, 53408) Rebuilding catalog B-tree Disk full error The volume Macintosh could not be repaired. Please what do I do ? Pls help sir .thanks sir
No version is working. Could the problem be my terminal window begins with [-bash-3.2#. I even tried macOS which it says instead of Macintosh or apple. A little help? Thanks
Hi, I have a problem with my macbook pro 15", it started when I tried to update the software, it seemed to stop have way through, thought nothing of it, until i tried to start up again, I had no joy, only OS X white screen, to repair your disk using Disk Utility, to be honest I have tried and tried them all but had no joy. I will try again now step 1 white screen To set up, click continue, agreement page, continue, agree, Select the disk on which to install "Macintosh HD" continue, installing on "Macintosh HD" OS X could not be installed your computer, No packages were eligible for install. Contact software manufacturer for assistance. Quit the installer to restart your computer and try again. I have tried and tried, and thought maybe some software discs would do the job, but of course not sure, but I ordered a couple I found online with 2009 on! hopefully they may get me somewhere. If there is anything you can suggest, I would love it, I have tried a few of yours already but all goes to not eligible, I and beginning to think whether I had done something wrong along the way! I would appreciate any help. Thanks
Ummm i've little different problems here, my MacBook didn't start up, but when see the verbose mode, it's stuck on "pci configuration begin" any solution for that? Please.....
I carefully added both codes as shown in the video (including the spaces) and for both I get “No such file or directory.” Got any suggestions? It’s a late 2011 MacBook Pro 17. Thanks.
For the people having trouble with a "no such file or directory" message after typing in the code. First go and Mount your Macintosh HD in Disk Utility by typing in your password to Mount. Then go to Terminal and try typing in the code again. You should not get the same message.
Yo man big up, I tried mounting with password unlock at Utility and then returned to enter the code in terminal and still getting no such file and directory, is there spaces inbetween CD and volumes and also \ HD or \HD/
Did you all do the Steps? if you do and you are in the Typing the Formula ALWAYS CHECK THE SPELLING because when i do this my Spelling was Wrong OK? Take it Slow and Surely Thank you
It didn’t work when I press the HD it says error connected into files and it won’t boot up only the SO X and I couldn’t find turminal where you said to press it
Anyways, as I was saying 😭😭😭... My MacBook is old, I believe I purchased in 2009. I recently attempted to update my iTunes but upon doing so the screen froze, so I reset it. Now it's stuck on the spinning loading death screen! The spinning loading icon with Apple logo... I've tried your solutions on video 1 and 2, and found out there is a disc error but was unable to repair! What do you advise at this point???
Hi, you said that your MacBook is from 2009, 10 years old. Computer technologies get obsolete every 6 months! It is like having a brand new car from 50 years ago and expect it to be as fast and safe as a 2019 model. My advising is that you would probably need purchasing a new laptop. However, please check if you can install a new os through using Utility Disk, my video part 1.
Ali Mirmehdi hi Ali. I am having the same issue as Peas Soothe as I’ve changed the p.list in systemsettings by tricking the software from 10.5.8 to 10.8.5 and I’m totally stuck.. called apple. Spent 2 hours on the phone with them and now I’m back to square one where I started. When I go into 250.9 gb hd on the first window of disc utility and click on partition.. it says partition failed, cannot live feed data. Please please help us.
Peas Soothe hey. I’m having the same issue! God damn iTunes and these new operating systems. I can’t even download a new OS X due to snow leopard running on mine. Did you by any chance fix yours?
1meanvr hi, i got my Macbook wont start up after an error happened to it while it was updating the system. Was your problem something like this? Many thanks
My laptop wont even boot to the chime. It just wont even turn on at all. Its just black. The only thing that shows that its working is when i do shift control option and i can hear something reset but it still doesnt turn anything on.
If you have your HD or SSD encrypted, then make sure it is mounted. You can do this during the "first aid" step. I had to look through the directories to find the mbr_cache. The first command didn't work because i did not have the "HD" directory. So, i manually "cd" into each directory similar to the path above to find mbr_cache and ran the 2nd command once i found it.
@@goofy4birds when you open the terminal type "ls" this should provide you a list of the directories in side you current location. "cd yourdirectoryOrFolderName" will get you inside that location. Follow the directories as stated in the video. FYI... You can go back to a directory using "cd .." Play around with the terminal, trust me you won't break it. Once you are inside the directory where the mb_cache is in, run the last command.
Hi John, in many cases, resetting takes care of the problem. My videos actually deal with more sophisticated, or less commonly utilized, ways of resetting. One can of course be more experimental with the computer, software & hardware. However, if you have that plan, you will first need to transfer your data to an external drive, ensuring that you will not lose them.
Once I enter codes into terminal it said no such directory or file. So pretty much it is not responding to those codes. Is it supposed to say anything?
HELLO... Thank you for your amazing videos. I have a question. My computer only gets to the grey screen with the apple and the line that moves from left to right, which usually gets me to my desktop. Nothing happens. It just stays on that window. I've tried everything including adding the information you posted on video # 3. You wrote 2 codes after BASH. It said that they were not valid for me. What do I do now? The fan turns on and running and nothing happens. No desktop. HELP.. Thanks again.. Monnica
I hold Command + R when my MacBook starts booting, but it won't go to the page that you're one and it keeps loading. The bar will fill up, but it won't load onto the main screen where I can log in. Any suggestions?
Hi! With your help, I managed to run the Verbose mode. However, it’s been going on for more than an hour now and it’s still verbose-ing 😅 is that normal? Should I keep waiting for it to eventually finish loading? Or do you perhaps have any advice for me? 🙏🏼 please help
My solution after all else failed was to take the 250 gb ssd I put into my 2010 MacBook Pro 2.4 ghz Core 2 Duo with High Sierra and 8 gb ram out of the computer and plug it up via usb to sata cable. Apparently my sata cable was bad and my ssd became unrecognizable.
Thank you so much for providing this valuable knowledge/content. Super helpful! I had a similar issue with my MacBook Pro. My laptop stopped working and I was waiting to take it to a specialist who can work on it for me when this pandemic is all over. My computer would freeze up during start up. Super frustrating and stressful considering I use my laptop for work and everything else. I couldn’t wait any longer 😫 so I went to YT and searched “MacBook freezes during opening, how to fix” and boom you popped up! I followed hour guidance and I fixed my issue with my laptop. I feel kinda cool man! Thank you bro

How long does it takes when you guys gift command v and power my computer displayed the information in the whole screen and now just few codes in the upper left corner. Need your help to be more specific on this method. I have not seen the legend with generating corpses
The first code is not working if tried 20 did ways and the GPU thing in the system specs it only shows a Intel GPU so I don't think mine has a nivida GPU.. it's really a pain
Your an awesome guy, thanks so much for deciding to do what you did when you made and shared these videos. we all appreciate you so much. there is so much resourceful information. No matter which way goes there is so much information here... Thank you so much....
Hi, I can't be sure. However, reset your computer. Also, see if my video Part I can help. Link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-WVDF4WyKvVs.html
I successfully typed both codes, upon hitting restart, there was a slight delay and then my screen went black. Computer fan is still running. Laptop is still plugged into charger and battery is connected.
