    is this for an old MAC? I just shut it down... waited 10 secs... pushed the power button again, and it came back on as normal.

    Hope you can help -- I need Skype almost every day, and FaceTime keeps grabbing my iSight camera/mic. I have to unplug&plug the iSight back in, FaceTime loads, I Quit FaceTime, load Skype, and sometimes my iSight works for Skype. This is maddening and scary because Skype is my main phone video connection with friends all over the world, and FaceTime prevents it from working! How do I disable FaceTime?

    My iMac (2015 c/ OS X Siera) will not open when I press the start button. I tried your fix c. Shift key & 10 sec start button hold. It will come one, but in dark screen. Then white apple & progress line. Then gray screen with my screen icon & pw request. I click to enter pw then it goes to dark screen then starts having sets of white lines going up screen, then back to black. It will let me sign in as a guest user, but my apps and info not there (of course). Any other suggestions before I take it in to Apple? Just found "SafeBoot" in red in upper right corner??? Help!!!

      Thanks, I got an appt. for Christmas Eve morning. Got it up & running, but when I tried to add an external drive for Time Machine I think I screwed it up again. Hubby is slowly piecing it back together but may end up taking it back in. At last appt. smartly got the extended Apple Care. Think all this may have been a problem with last OS update. Don't know for sure. I'll keep watching your You Tube vids.

    Since I've updated, my iMac is asking for a password and the keyboard now isn't working either. I've always logged on without a password. The light flashes on the keyboard when I press button on the side, but all the keys aren't working. I just changed to new batteries also.

      @akehapkap6143 6 років тому

      If you press the option (alt) button and hold it during startup, right when you press the poweron on the backside of your computer, you should get the start disk screen. If it don't work try again. It worked on mine after several attempts, and it is old, from 2008 so 10 y old. Mac. I got the main desk and a backup which I don't have tho, it was an external hard disk that don't work anymore. The problem is a tired internal hard drive and too many files. I tried to clean it but it couldn't take the heat. There is some pics I want to get and I'm gonna get them. I'm older than my computer, I'm over 50 and I'm gonna find it out :)
      There is a lot of options on using the keyboard during start up, just look for it :)

    I have a 27'' 2019 i9 mainboard that is locked. Just so you know, nothing here will unlock it. Would you happen to have any idea how to unlock a locked MB? When I boot the machine, an Apple icon appears, and then a few moments later, there is just a big LOCK with the option for a password.
