HELP Macbook Pro Locks Up Upon Startup.

neoelectronaut · May 14, 2006, 02:58 PM

My 1.83Ghz Macbook Pro locks up either after the OS loading screen with a blank blue screen, or it loads up the finder, the dock, and menu bar, along with the icons on the screen, loads stickies, and just stops responding. The mouse can be moved, but clicking does nothing, almost as if I was just clicking on a big image of my desktop.

Where should I start with this issue?

Does it work in "Safe Mode"?

Works just fine in "Safe Boot".

After I bit of googling I discovered it was the Security Update conflict with Adobe's Version Cue, whatever the hell that is.

Hi, I had the same problem with Adobe Version Cue and security update 2006-003.

Apparently people have the same problem with Apple Remote Desktop

The fix was to remove the Version Cue stuff from the Startup Items (HD >> Library >> StartupItems)

ARD stuff is in HD >> System >> Library >> StartupItems
