Tim.PaperHouse Level 1 (0 points) Q: Power Mac G5 with disk0s3: I/O error I have an old Power Mac G5 that just started freezing on start up. It gets to the disk0s3 i 0 error gray screen but just spins and after about 5 minutes the fan kicks into high disk0s3 i o error as it continues to spin. Here's what I've done so far: • Tried starting up in safe boot and got a Kernel Panic• mac disk1 i/o error Tried booting from installation disk (which was succesful) and verifying the disk through Disk Utility which failed, giving me the following message "invalid node structure - the volume needs to be repaired.

Can anyone tell me what these errors mean and if they specify what is wrong (hard disk, logic board, etc)?Thanks in advanceTim PowerMac, Mac OS X (10.4.11) Posted on Aug 22, 2012 10:45 AM I have this question too by japamac,Solvedanswer japamac Level 7 (24,390 points) A: Do you think I could pull that hard drive and install it in the first?As long as the OS is of the proper version (not older than the G5), then it should be no problem at all.It does sound as if your drive has completely failed........

Make sure the hard drive is formatted on your Mac by booting from an installer disc that supports your Mac, if you have no data on the drive you wish to preserve. If there is data on the drive you wish to preserve, was it on an Intel Mac before? Cause Intel Mac formatted drives will not work directly on a PowerMac.
Colin My Macbook (late 2008 Unibody) turned two years old a few days before Christmas. The day after it's birthday (the only reason I know this is because

I was checking where it fell in terms of warranty, but AppleCare is disk0s2 i/o error fix only one year, not two from purchase date so this was pretty irrelevant anyways) I started to suffer from a the volume macintosh hd could not be verified completely myriad of issues during use. Beachballing. Bouncing programs in the dock. Random freezes in Firefox when browsing. Connection dropouts. The works. I initially thought this was the work of an outdated program failing to https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4231040?tstart=0 play nice with the newest version of Snow Leopard (10.6.5) which I had installed days before. I began turning off plugins in Firefox and ditching programs from the startup menu to attempt to cure whatever sickness had taken over my laptop. Every reboot cycle gave me the same problem- the computer would run for about 30 seconds, but then any use and it started beachballing. Finally, it http://balloflightning.com/2010/12/io-error-os-x-hard-drive-failing/ just didn't reboot. The computer hung at the grey screen with the Apple logo and the spinning ball. No peripherals (external hard drive, USB mouse, etc.) were attached so that was immediately ruled out. To attempt to diagnose the problem, I attempted to boot into safe mode. Not happening. Tried resetting the PRAM and NVRAM. Nada. Finally, the next series of steps allowed me to salvage my hard drive and let my Macbook live to see another day (minus a $700 data recovery charge). Boot into single-user mode (sometimes called verbose mode) (hold down Control-V as soon as the Mac chime sounds after pressing the power button). You should now be in an environment that looks like this: At the command line type: /sbin/fsck -fy and press Return. You will receive messages about the disks use and fragmentation as fsck will now go through five phases of disk utility. If you get: disk0s3: I/O Error then you have a problem with bad sectors on the hard drive. Eventually, fsck will probably tell you: ***** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED ***** Repeat the fsck process above. Keep repeating the above process until ***** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED ***** does not appe

Hello! Im posting here out of desperation for some kind of help with my Powerbook. It is a problem that has only started to occur in the last few days. The hard disk will begin to seek more aggressively causing itunes to i o error skip and applications to halt. The colour wheel appears whilst the disk continues to seek and then all of a sudden it will go back to working correctly. The more applications running the more frequent the slow downs. I have been watching activity monitor whilst it occurs and none of the programs are using large amounts of processor time, infact the activity monitor itself is always on top with about 10%. Activity monitor does report large amounts of disk activity. I checked console and the system logs are reporting the following: Jun 11 20:23:13 isunk kernel[0]: disk0s9: I/O error.
