Yesterday I updated my os on my MacBook Pro (late 2014) to El Capitan. Today, upon starting up my Mac, I am stuck in boot up. It doesn't even begin to boot. What can I do to get my Mac to boot without losing all of my info saved on my computer?

Macbook pro is not booting the following day after installing El Capitan. Is anyone else experiencing this? What can I do to get my mac to boot up without losing my information saved on my drive?

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014), OS X El Capitan (10.11)

Excellent..

The actual file name file for me was EltimaAsync.kext

So i executed this command

rm -R "/Volumes/Macintosh HD/System/Library/Extensions/EltimaAsync.kext"

and all went well..


Should anyone get kernel panic with a different kext file, and you cannot figure it out simply use the following command to locate the file and remove it

find / -name *keyward*

e.g in the kernel panic message for me it was com.eltima.SyncMate.kext

So i used find / -name *Eltima*


Good luck..
