After last max os lion update i can't login into my user: after mac Has been started, i don't see my user image, password form, even restart/shut down buttons at the bottom of the screen have dissapeared. The only thing i see is apple logo at the center of the screen and the mouse pointer. How can i revive my mac?
iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
I would recommend booting into the Lion Recovery Partition and running Repair Disk from the Utilities there. If that doesn't solve it then I would do a Reinstallation of Lion OVER itself from inside the Recovery Partition and see if that clears it up. To enter the Recovery Partition, start your computer while holding down the Command - R keys.
Hope this helps 🙂
Thanx, i tried repair disk option but it didn't helped. Before trying reinstall OS I just want to know - will reinstall delete all my files?
Ok, I tried to reinstall Lion through Recovery hd, but it didn't solve problem either. I have faced a blank screen with only apple logo again. Is there any other options to recover my mac?
