User Profile Synchronization Service Gets Stuck on Starting

Open up Powershell on your SharePoint Server and type in the following command
Get-spserviceinstance

Stop-spserviceinstance <GUID>

ow go back into Central Administration > Application Management > Manage Service Applications and delete the User Profile Service Application.
Restart your server and set up the User Profile Service Application again.

OR

Steps:

1. stsadm -o enumservices > c:\services.txt – Those gave me a list of services and showed me what the name of the service I need to stop is.
2. stsadm -o provisionservice -action stop -servicetype “Microsoft.Office.Server.Administration.ProfileSynchronizationService, Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c” -servicename FIMSynchronizationService
The second command stopped the service.
