[QUOTE="mihkluhszckee, post: 1410092, member: 255058"] Frustrated and typing on a cell phone so bare with me. Osx 10.4.something Disc drive hasnt been functional for a couple years. Cant get an osx disc anyways, i tried when my iphone wouldnt sync to itunes because i didnt have itunes ten and its not available. I was making music in garageband. A track recorded on a usb mic messed everything up. It glitched out at a certain part repeatedly. I manually restarted with the power button, wouldnt boot. Got stuck on the apple icon with the loading ring. I let it sit after a few attempts and hours later it went to a black screen with a cursor in the top left corner. I rebooted and it all worked again with no files lost. I went back into garageband and loaded the file id been working on, same stuff happened, except i waited for the freezing to stop and deleted the track this time. I received an error 36 at the time, i forget the description of the error. My mac froze up minutes later while browsing on firefox. I restarted and got the folder with a question mark. None of the boot commands work except the pram reset which i have no idea *** it does. When i hold option an arrow pops up but nothing else. Any suggestions? Let me know if u need more info. [/QUOTE]
