Hey guys, first post here, I searched online and did the whole deleting Library/Caches Servies/com.apple/LaunchServices* thing with single user mode and my login loop problem still exists. I did in fact drop my MacBook from about 3 ft a couple weeks ago. After I dropped the MacBook, the first reboot after that drop took REALLY long but after it rebooted it was fine and was working fast again. I did several Disk Utility checks on my hard drive without finding any issues. My DVD Superdrive however is broken from the drop.
As for right now, when I boot up and wait for it to go to the Login Screen, I type in my password and it shows my wallpaper. My mouse has that round colorfulwheel thinking thing, my dock doesn't show up and nothing shows up on the desktop besides the wallpaper. After about 10-15 seconds it turns blue and goes back to the login screen.
Does anyone else have this problem and deleting launchservices doesnt help?
Is this problem vindictive of a failing hard drive due to the drop? If so, would I be able to retain all my files from my old HD and move it to the new one?
