Mac Book Pro Mavericks OS 10.9.5 stops at apple logo with spinning gear.
After working fine for a year, suddenly I cannot get past the apple logo with spinning gear page,
Already tried:
1. safe mode-loading bar disappears 1/3 way through,
2. downloading/reinstalling Mavericks OS-took 4 hours, reboot led right back to same issue,
3. disk/permissions repair - same issue when rebooted
4. Resetting PRAM - heard second chime - same issue
Mac Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)
