When I am doing an update software for my OSX 10.6.8 the looking for update bar only goes about 1/3 across the bar then stops and idles with the blue lines still moving. This happens on both Firefox and Safari. Is the apple server busy or is this a sign of the flashback trojan horse?

I've noticed after upgrading to 10.6.5 that my keyboard will not work when I come back after an extended period of time away from the machine. At first, after applying only the 10.6.5 update, neither keyboard nor mouse would work unless I unplugged and replugged the keyboard (the mouse is connected directly to the KB). Later, I installed the combo update, and then the mouse worked but the keyboard still wouldn't. This is after my display sleeps - as long as I continue to use the computer, everything works fine. I have a mid-2009 Mac Pro 2.66 GHz quad-core (Nahalem) but with the older (clear, G5) keyboard and a mighty mouse.

On a day-to-day basis I run: Adobe PS, INDD, and AI, Microsoft Entourage, Firefox and iTunes. Just recently, after an upgrade to Leopard, I added Things and Simplify Media to the list.The problem that happens before (on Tiger) and now (on Leopard) is command+tab switching stops functioning and Expose hot corners and shortcuts stop working.
I'm pretty sure this isn't a Finder crash because before, on Tiger, I could quit+restart Firefox and everything would be back to normal. Almost as if some shortcut had causes the system to act differently or there was some app dissonance?
But now, with Leopard, nothing I quit will cause these two features to act properly until I do a restart. Both features (command+tab switching and expose) are very necessary for my work flow. I have checked SysPref to make sure keyboard shortcuts are default and Univeral Access to make sure assisted devices is turned off.
I have just updated OS X to the newest ver. 10.7.3 and WI-FI conection stops when computer sleeps. Using internet conection through Time Capsule. Someone experienced the same?

I've own an apogee duet for that last year, and have had zero problems. I just got the ensemble the other day for recording drums. I followed the install instruction carefully, updated all software, and firmware. And the interface wont show up in my system preferrences (the ensemble and the duet).
I swapped the firewire cables and still nothing shows up. I plugged the ensemble into my friends lab top, and it see's it right away.
So I thought maybe my firewire port isn't working...But when I go to the apple menu, and then "About this Mac" and hit "more info", "system report" under the Hardware tab at firewire... it says the ensemble is plugged in?
my imac turns on, gets half way through booting up, then just stops.

My IMac (OS X 10.7.3) has gotten incredibly slow. It just stops doing anything for minutes at a time. Then it gets a little better for a little while, but lapses into the slowdown again.

Here recently when I've been watching videos on YouTube, The Video will load to a certain point then after that it stops and when the video gets to that point it just pauses and stops. To be able to watch farther into the video I have to keep refreshing my computer every time this happens and sometimes it loads farther, and sometimes it doesn't. I've tried to reset Safari, Deleting cookies, Deleting history, but nothing worked?

i've been having some problems with my 27" iMac (2011). I was playing a game (Diablo 3), when suddenly there was a kernel panic, so I had restart my computer. I started the game again, and there was another panic. After that, every time I login everything works great for 5 minutes, then the screen goes black, and it just stays there, nothing happens. I've tried restarting the computer many times, but it just keeps crashing.

Got a Mac OS X Version 10.7.4 last week and first off it was fine the Internet connected perfectly and was the fastest connection I've seen. But this morning I came down and it connected for 5 minutes and then although it appeared to be working (The wifi bars were full) the internet wouldn't search for any sites. All the while my iPod and laptop still connected. I did a clean-up of the Mac but that didn't make a difference. It seems to be able to connect for that first 5 minutes every time I restart the computer, but you can't do anything in 5 minutes. I need to correct this, do you have any idea how?

I have a mid-2010 27" iMac, which I've just installed a new 256 Gb SSD (blazingly fast!!!) which I want to use as my primary hard drive. The 1Tb Hard drive which I'm now using will continue to be in the machine, but will serve as the document storage drive. I am using Lion and have everything backed up via Time Machine. The SSD has a clean install of Lion.
What I want to know is how can I move all of my applications over to the SSD while still keeping the documents on the 1Tb Hard Drive. Should I use my Time Machine with the Migration Assistant to do this? If I do, how do I then delete all applications off the 1Tb Hard Drive while keeping my documents? Although I have everything backed up, I'm worried that as has happened before when migrating over to a new computer, the Time Machine backup drive will not let me access previous backups once I migrate everything.

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy wife has a 2009 27" iMac that has been perfectly fine since we purchased it. I had upgraded my old Macbook Pro to 8GB of ram and had the old 2GB sitting around. It was DD3 1066 just what hers took so decided to put the ram in her machine. Shut it down, unplugged all the cables, flipped it over on a towel and inserted the ram. Booted it up and now I get this same effect as the pictures in this thread: [URL]..
We took our own pics but they did not come out well. Both the upper corners have this. Never had an issue before and we are in a climate and humidity controlled room. Obviously the machine is out of warranty but I know this was a problem before on 27" models. Literally it was fine, turned it off, put in the ram, flipped it back over, and turned it back on then the spots were there.
Has a real root cause ever been found for this? Worth it to pull the glass and check the screen itself?
I got my computer yesterday, it's a iBook G4 OS X 10.5.8. The charger worked fine until around six o' clock. Then it wouldn't charge. We switched the power pack and it worked for an hour or so, and then the same thing. What can I do? I CANNOT take it to be fixed.

Just finished installing Snow Leopard in preparation to download Lion on our desktop.
I purchased the Snow Leopard DVD and installed with success. I went to purchase Lion through the App store and received a message.
"Lion needs at least 2 BG of memory to download" There is only 1GB of memory left. Can I "trash/dump" something? If so, HOW??

I have a 4 yr old macBook Air with solid state disk capacity 120 GB. It has loads of music and about 12000 photos on it and the disk is getting full.I also have an iPhone 4s.I am treating myself to a new iMac with 1 Tb drive.I guess it would be sensible to move most photos and music to the new iMac.(I have a 500Gb hard drive I use to back up the macAir)
Re photostream - does it store photos on the Macbook itself? Can I set up my phone to send photos to the iMac instead of the current macbook air? How?How do I keep duplicates of some of the photos on the macbook?
