Can start in Safe Boot only
iMac Intel 27" Late 2009
Hello there,
My iMac is having serious freezing issues.
When I was watching a YouTube video, my iMac completely froze. I could only move the cursor. I had to shut it down using the power button. It froze a few more times before it started freezing when starting. It would freeze at the Apple logo and the progress bar.
I tried resetting the NVRAM. Started in Safe Boot to close all the programs that hadn't closed properly.
Next I reinstalled macOS Sierra from recovery. That didn't work.
Then I took it to the apple Genius Bar where they did some heath checks and it passed all of them. Next they reinstalled a fresh copy of macOS directly from their servers. It started up fine. I set up an account whilst there and I brought it home.
I tried customizing my Mac and it started freezing again.
Before taking it to Genius Bar, I even swapped the rams to see if they corrupt. But they weren't. I still had the same problem with the other rams.
I don't know what is wrong with this machine. 2.5 years ago I also had the logic board relaxed through Apple.
I can start the Mac in Safe Boot only.
Please help!
Cheers!
Abhishek

What virus protection program are you using? How many programs of the (Clean my Mac, MacKeeper, Fix my Mac) type have you downloaded and installed?
