Applications start but then freeze with dreaded 'spinning wheel'
Just lately I have been unable to import into iPhoto 5.0.4
Camera is recognised. I click on Import and then only one or two pics are imported before there is a complete freeze. The spinning wheel just goes on spinning.
When I try to stop import there is a very lengthy wait before the import appears to stop. I then try to drag the camera icon into reject but it does not work. I have to unplug the camera (dire threats of corruption etc) but so far images have been retained.
Thereafter it is not always possible to Quit in normal fashion and I have to 'power off' on the computer.
I have assumed this is an iPhoto issue but yesterday I came home to the evil spinning disc and my weekly automatic back-up in limbo. It had by then been going for eleven hours, so no question of impatience.
I use SuperDuper and those nice people told me to shut down. Disconnect all periphials and reboot using the cloned Back-up after which try again.
This worked but SuperDuper people told me I have one or two drive issues.
Does this mean I am looking at a new machine.
If anybody out there can help I will be extremely grateful.

Sir.
Would you kindly give me the benefit of your knowledge to put the finishing touches to this Post?.
I shall get Disc W. soon, meanwhile the following is a mystery.
My Mac HD is partitioned so that I have a CLONE in one and then separately a BACK-UP.
The BACK-UP happens weekly automatically with SuperDuper. I have not bothered changing the CLONE.
However in view of dire warnings about my HD I decided to update the CLONE so that everything current is secured.
I then went to Disk Utility and tried again to repair the Mac HD. As before although the SMART status is Verified the previous issues remain, they are:-
MacHD Invalid node structure, The vol MacHD needs to be repaired. Error 1HFS checked. Vol needs repair.
Here is the mystery. I then tried the repair task on the LaCie external HD here I got the following messages:-
THE VOL CLONE OF MAC APPEARS TO BE OK (mounting disc)
THE VOL BACK-UP APPEARS TO BE OK (mounting disc)
2 HFS VOLUMES CHECKED - *NO REPAIRS WERE NECESSARY.*
Just to make certain I ran this twice with the same result,
Question is ... Would I be taking a risk if if I
did the procedure in reverse in an endeavor to get the "CLONED" version to replace the damaged version on the MacHD.
In other words use SuperDuper Smart Update and switch the usual source/destination instruction to SOURCE 'Clone of MAC' ... DESTINATION 'MacHD'.
This probably exposes my lack of understanding but I would be interested in your comments

InDesign CS4 Mac starts but then freezes
Indesign CS4 Mac starts up but freezes from there. Trying to open files or create new ones results in the filename appearing at the bottom of the Window drop-down menu, but the file doesnt appear on-screen.
The same result occurs when opening files using "Open Recent File" as well as double-clicking the file in Finder or using "Open With" in FInder.
It couldnt have picked a worse time to crap out - right in the middle of an urgent contract!! Dang Cleetus!!
Any suggestions - apart from re-installing the program?
Cheers,
JohnTried renaming InDesign Saved data and InDesign Defaults and restarting InDesign - that didnt seem to fix the problem - after re-starting InDesign it seemed the program didnt write new versions of the files on re-start.
Will head back to the office & connect to my 23" display & see if ID works OK with that - that would confirm that it's a screen pointing issue?
Would re-installing ID help?
Cheers,

HT4718 Recovery starts but then freezes before completing
My new mac would not start after trying to load google earth. At start up it would not get past the page with apple, nor would it start in sage ,ode. Tried to reload lion from inter net. It downloads and tries the reinstall but will not finish.
Contact Apple Service, iMac Service or Apple's Express Lane. Do note that if you have AppleCare's protection plan and you're within 50 miles (80 KM) of an Apple repair station, you're eligible for onsite repair since yours is a desktop machine. That might also apply to new machines.

I get the rainbow wheel when I try to open an internet page. It loads halfway, then freezes, with the rainbow wheel whirring around. Smae thing happens when I try to stream a movie on Netflix. The movie loads, then the wheel shows up and the screen freezes. Same thing when I try a DVD, it takes the disc, but won't play when I hit on PLAY.
I am repair permissions, and all that I can do, but I am a novice. Any help would be greatly appreciated because I spend big bucks and drive 40 miles to get Apple help.
Sharon in the woods of IdahoWelcome to Apple Support Communities.
If your profile info is up to date, you probably have a 2006 or 2007 MacBook with a CoreDuo or Core2Duo.
It probably came with 512MB or 1GB RAM memory and a 60, 80, or 120GB hard drive.
You're still running OS X Tiger, 10.4.
Your DVD drive may be dirty or wearing out.
For specifics about your computer, click on the Apple Logo in the menu bar, then About This Mac, and More Info... to find details.)
You may be running short of hard disk space. You should have at least 10% free, or 10 to 15GB free for best performance. Less than that, and your hard disk is spending lots of time searching for places to store data.
Complex web pages and sites like Facebook and Twitter, and pages using Adobe Flash, and high-bandwidth applications like video streaming from NetFlix can all cause your computer to run slowly, and the fan to run at high speed, because the processor is working hard. Conversely, email is not terribly resource-intensive, and probably still works pretty well.
Several things can each provide a small performance increase (listed in no particular order):
Adding more RAM memory. Upgrade to 2Gb to give your programs a bit of 'breathing room', especially if you are running more than one program at a time.
Erasing the hard drive and reinstalling the current operating system and programs from scratch. This erases all your existing programs and data. Unless you have backups and program discs, you lose everything currently stored on it.
Installing a higher capacity, faster hard disk, say 250GB or 320GB will give your programs and data more space, and perhaps faster access if you replace the factory 5400rpm drive with a 7200 rpm drive. If your current hard disk is nearly full (less than 10% free space), the drive has to 'thrash' to free space to store information.
Upgrading the operating system to OS X 10.5 Leopard or OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. Both are discontinued OS X versions, still available to order directly from Apple, but not likely found on a store shelf any longer. An upgrade to OS X 10.7 Lion might not be possible for your MacBook (details here: http://www.apple.com/macosx/how-to-buy/), and Lion would likely cause a further slowdown, because honestly, Lion is optimized for newer, faster dual-core or quad-core computers with fast video chipsets and 4GB or more of RAM.
A faster internet connection, for example: I switched internet providers to get a 3.0Mb DSL connection (up from a 512Mb connection) for an extra $10 per month, and saw downloads and internet browsing speeds increase dramatically. With the slower connection, it was not possible to watch video.
Will all of these upgrades together get you close to the performance of the latest MacBook Air or MacBook Pros? NO!
Ultimately, you have a 4- or 5-year-old computer, and spending up to several hundred dollars for upgrades might not be a worthwhile investment for you, versus applying that much money toward the cost of a new(er) Mac, and perhaps passing your MacBook on to a friend, child, or grandchild who needs mainly email capability.
If a brand new Apple is not in the budget, consider a refurbished Mac from the Apple Store online. These are reliable computers from 'last year's models' and have the same 1-year Applecare warranty as a brand new model, and often sell at a discount of 10 to 30 percent of the price when the model was introduced.
I'm using a mid-2007 MacBook, purchased as a refurb from Apple in late 2007. It came with 1GB RAM, a 120GB 5400 rpm hard drive, and OS X 10.4 Tiger. Over the years, I've upgraded it twice. Firs to 2GB, then to 4GB RAM, to a 320GB drive, then to a 500GB 7200 rpm hard drive, and to OS X 10.5 Leopard, and then to OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. Rather than one more round of upgrades to OS X 10.7 Lion, I'm saving for a newer MacBook Pro or MacBook Air at some time in the future. -
Just updated my Ipad operating system and one of my apps starts but then the screen turns white, with only the advertisment at the top showing
The normal suggestions.
Close the app,off fully. Double tap the home screen then touch and hold any of the icons on the task bar until they jiggle, then close them all off by touching the - sign.
Then reboot the pad and try the spp again. If same issue, delete the app, then reload it. ( no charge). You may just have a bad copy. If continues, write to the developer, they may need to do an update. I have an older version of the same app and it works fine.
Since yours is the ad supported version, they are maing real sure you see the ad. Is it as simple as you need to click thru the ad to get to the game? -
Download starts but then stops...
So I've read other forums and searched this website for one, but I still can't find the answer. Whenever I try to download the file it will start but then after some time get stuck on a percentage(different every time) and then stop all together. I've tried using different browsers and a download manager, I have plenty of storage space also. It still won't work
I've heard that this may have something to do with my internet and secruity? Or something? Can someone tell me how to fix that? My technical skills are very very low and this is the first time I've used a mac.Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2. -
Having mail 4.5 issues- open mail and get a new features message that says in order to use the new features, I must import existing messages into the new version first in order to use mail 4.5. Just recently put in MAC OSX 10.6.7. Once it imports I am to click done to start using mail, but end up with the rainbow wheel of death and it also says you cannot use mail until the import is finished? Now What?
Is Mail still "spinning"? If it's been doing that for a while, I'd kill it, using either Activity Monitor or the OS X application picker. Then relaunch Mail and see what happens.
Two "by the ways":
1) Your system details mention an PPC iMac. Since a non-Intel Mac can't run OS X 10.6, you seem to have another Mac. You might want to consider updating your system details.
2) You seem to have been misled by the poor labeling of the message composition fields on this forum into trying to enter your entire post into the "subject" field. In the future, just enter a summary of your post there and the main text into the field below it. -
Start Up Screen Freeze With Lines Across Screen
The computer is the iSight version. In moving it from one room to another I shut it down properly. I had a back-up HD with Time Machine which I shut down properly. When I tried to restart it shortly after at the new location, the start up chime sounded and the Apple logo came on with the spinning wheel but the screen had light blue horizontal lines across it. The lines at first seemed squiggly but after restarting a few times, the screen seemed to be divided into vertical columns about 3/4" wide with one column having pixels colored light blue and the next column having the same coloration but the row of colored pixels was above the previous one. This arrangement alternated across the screen. I hope this is clear. After a while the spinning wheel and the screen froze and the computer would not continue with the start up.
I reset the SMU by unplugging the power cord, etc. but this did not work. I tried restarting in safe mode-negative. I tried restarting from the original disc-negative. Initially, it sounded like the disc was working because it makes a distinctive noise when a disc is working in the drive but eventually the same initial screen came on with the wheel spinning and then freezing. I tried the current versions of Techtool Pro and Disc Warrior and neither worked. The same thing happened. The noise from the disc drive but the same screen would come on and then the spinning wheel would freeze. Initially the screen with the Apple and the spinning wheel and the lines came on quickly but after a number of times turning the computer on and off, the screen remained dark with a faint light and when the screen came up, the spinning wheel was already frozen.
I use a flight simulator-X-Plane- a lot and some times when I leave it on, screen saver comes on and when I bring the screen back up, the first screen that came up and quickly changed had to do with X-Plane but not with what I was doing. Also, sometimes when I left it and came back there was a different screen but still part of X-Plane but not the screen I left before. I don't know if this is related to my problem or specific with X-Plane. I brought it up because this is the only thing that was different prior to this problem but may not be related. Right now, I've turned it off(obviously) and disconnected the power cord and the keyboard.
Any help would be appreciated.I've started taking the iSight apart. Detaching the plastic took some time and care but with only a few tears. Separated the screen. The main board is positioned such that the capacitors are on the bottom. So many connections and most of them small. Have to be careful. So many small screws. I hope I can remember where they all go when I put everything together-I hope. I'm at the point where I've turned the main board over so that the capacitors are showing. I hope I can reconnect correctly. Two capacitors have a slight bulge at the top compared to the others. Although I am not sure whether these two are part of the problem. There is another one that has no bulge but there seems to be some stuff on the top. It is not corrosion so I'm not sure whether it was manufactured that way or something is wrong with it. I finally found the battery. Just to change it is such a job. You have to disconnect a lot of stuff and turn the board over to get at it unless Apple technicians have a shortcut. Do you think the battery could cause the problems I have? Anyway, if I have the board exposed already might as well try and change the capacitors. I have not come across any video that shows how to expose the underbelly of the main board. Nor have I seen any video that shows what each part is. On the left side of the layout is an long rectangular shape covered over with black plastic. I haven't checked it out but I assume it is the power source. At the upper left there is a rectangular board with capacitors underneath but there are connections underneath that are so tightly stuffed that I couldn't turn it over but I could lift it up a little and see the heads of some capacitors and there wasn't any bulging capacitors or corrosion. There's one big capacitors under there. Much bigger then those on the mother board. Interesting observation. When I turned the screen over to expose its back most of it was frosted except for a small rectangular piece that was dark but glassy like and the glass like part lies exactly on the small rectangular board about 4X5 or 4X6. Interesting why this small section of the back of the screen should be different from the rest of the back and why it should be exactly above the smaller board. Like the previous versions of iMac, it would be so easy to be able to open the back and have all of the capacitors exposed. My next action is to contact one of the references you posted and see if I can get these three capacitors and the battery from Radio Shack or somewhere and solder the capacitors to the mother board. After all of this putting the whole thing together correctly without ending up with extra parts. One thing did break. Next to the fan in the middle there is a piece of metal attached to the back. There is a small narrow slot in this metal that another piece of bent metal seems to go into and was soldered to it and when everything is put together it seems, although I'm not sure, that this metal touches the back of the screen. It looks like I have to solder it back. I don't know what its purpose is, maybe it grounds the screen? I thought the piece of metal was something to pull in order to liftup something else. So far that is the only thing that has broken and hopefully can be easily fixed. But nothing that seems easy is easy.

An old MacBook Air, on start up just have a grey screen with a spinning wheel? please help
I have a mac book air. On start up I get just a grey screen with a spinning wheel. This lasts for about 15 minutes then I have just a deep blue screen. can anyone help please?
You should find the USB stick that shipped with your MBA and hold the Option key while rebooting. This will allow you to boot up and try doing a Repair Disk. If yours is an early model with a HDD your drive may have died. You can get a repalcement drive from OWC. They are pretty easy to install and the tools come with the kit.

Mac Book Pro on boot up, the apple sign will appear with the spinning wheel. After a period of time the screen will turn grey, but the mouse will still operate, but not boot up.
If it was purchased brand new then it's running a version of Lion, so to reinstall Lion:
Reinstalling Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button. -

Upload at my office worked without any problem. One problem solved, now i am aware with a lot of discussions with my providers helpdesk ;-) -
Installing on Old PC: Starts But Then Can't Find .SFS File
I have an old PC with an AMD Athlon CPU and 448 MB RAM that has Win 2000 on it. I downloaded Arch yesterday (md5sum OK) and tried to install it. It started up OK, but then ended with this on the screen:
large image removed and linked (OP: put link to thumbnail between the url tags)
I tried several other distros, and they all died similarly, looking for some file after having a number of them.
I don't think it's a CD-burning problem, because I do a lot of .iso's on my main machine. Could it be the result of burning the .iso on one machine and reading it on another?
