georgebergling Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Hi, yesterday I upgraded my HP Envy 15-j101ss with Yosemite 10.10.2 to 10.10.3 and everything was working correctly after the update except a mistake with the new Photos app. I wasn't able to import the iPhoto gallery because the app said that I needed to repair the disk permissions and I did it with Disk Utility. But after this i'm stuck on the apple logo so I can't boot. I boot in verbose mode and everytime i see: 'Incorrect number of thread records'. I tried to repair it with fsck but there's always a loop and the system can't repair it, Also I tried it with Disk Utility in Time Machine but the fix isn't possible and I thought there were back-ups to restore it, but there aren't so it's like a joke... Moreover I have a Windows partition with MacDrive but this software can't repair it too. I don't know what can I do, maybe there's any chance to repair the OS X because in this partition I have many important files such as music projects...

bronxteck Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 in worst case scenario you can try reinstall OS X right over the old one it should keep all your data. or import that one into a working OS X partition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wohooo! Thank you for answer me! Gonna do it right now, but it's safe to repair the disk permissions again after the installation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
