Beach Ball of Death on my 24" iMac 2.8GHz duo, 4 MB Ram, 750 GB HD

Hello all:
Maybe I got one of the first ones off the line? Ordered it on release day in September.
I'm having Beach Ball problems, lots of freezes in Firefox, Excel, SLOOOOWWW response on saves, goofy problems dragging and dropping files. Coupla Hard restarts, LOTS of restarts.
Anybody else out there with same/similar problems?
Steve

I keep getting the same thing, using similar software. I am running a slightly older iMac - 24" 2.33MHz (pre-aluminum), with 2GB RAM and a 500 GB hard drive.
Over time, the crashes get worse, and eventually the system software needs to be reinstalled. About six months ago, I decided to partition the hard drive in the hope that I could isolate the problem to the boot partition and save other files/data. This DOES work - only the boot partition goes bad. Disk Warrior can't rebuild it, but it make a lot of repairs and does recover most of the files. But this never fixes it - it seems to be a stop-gap, and eventually the partition fails again.
I just reinstalled the system software after another crash today that killed the partition. I have read about the "iMac Update 1.1" as being a potential culprit, so I am not doing any updates.
I have been keeping Console running, hoping to get a clue. Everything it reports is far too arcane for me to understand, but here are some expamples of what it reports:
Every hour exactly, it spits out
"-computer kernel[0]: SetCryptoKey R: len 32, idx 2
("idx" flips back and forth between 1 and 2 each error.)
Here is a copy of some of the previous logs:

disk 0s2:0xe0030003 (UNDEFINED).
jnl: dojnlio:strategy err 0x5
jnl: writejournalheader:error writing the journal header!
This time, Mail was the first program to freeze (it has also been FireFox or Safari), and one processor was running at nearly full speed, according to Activity Monitor, prior to complete lockup.
Any clues???
thanks

  • IMac 20" was running very slow (could not even scroll without the spinning beach ball of death), The computer was operating on OSX 10.5. After a lot of attempts of diagnostic attempts, have resorted to an erase and reinstall. says it will take 60  hours!

    Working on my friends iMac 20" computer. It is 2.66 ghz, and was running 4mb of ram when the computer started acting up on OSX 10.5.
    When I was called over the computer was so slow that I could not even scroll without getting the beach ball of death. I checked the activities moniter, and found an HP application was taking up 46% of the CPU. We attempted to go in and uninstall all of the HP applications, but the computer ended up freezing. Ended up doing a hard shut down, and decided to run disk utilities. Repaired both Permissions, and Disk. Restarted... no difference. Thought of restoring the computer to when it was working fine via Time machine in disk utility mode... failed. Finally resorted to deleting the hard drive, reinstalling Tiger, and upgrading.
    After what seemed like forever for the hard drive to erease, attempted to reinstall. Ended up taking almost an hour to verify the disk, and then announced, that it would take 58+ hours to install. After leaving it for 3 hours, the number was going up, and was not installing.
    I then thought the problem would be the 2nd party ram. We replaced the paired 2mb's to give 4mb's with the origional paired 1mb's providing now 2 mb's. Attempted to reinstall osx. Same problem 60+ hours after 3 hours of letting it sit.
    What to do now? Is it the logic board? Could it be a faulty hard drive? Should I attempt in firewire more from another computer? Do a 7 pass erase over the hard drive? Run Disk warrior?
    If anyone could give some info on why this is so blessedly slow that would be great thanks!

    Decided to try and chek out the hard drive more extensively. SMART, states that it is verified. After running Diskwarrior and repairing all of the disk and the permissions, and running a hardware test, everything seemed to be running fine.
    Went back to disk utilities, checked disk and permissions again, verified. SMART states it is verified.
    Attemping now to install Mac OSX 10.4.7 from the original install disk. I am currently attemting the basic install, no programs, nothing. It has been over an hour, It is 44% of installing the base system Part 1, announcing 5 hours and 53 minutes.
    When I did erase the hard drive yes I selected to write over zeros once. I then erased a second time from Diskwarrior.

  • I have a 4 yr. old iMac. I recently got a trojan on it that sent out emails to my address book. I got Norton Internet Security for Mac, and now my Mac is running slow, with way too many spinning beach balls of death. Was it a mistake to install Norton?

    There is no such Trojan or other malware known today that will do that using OS X nor has there ever been one. The most probable explanation is that somebody hacked into your e-mail account on the server, so you should change that password to something stronger right away. If it had come from your Mac then there would almost certainly be copies of those messages in your Sent Mail mailbox.

  • IMac bootup issues and spinning beach ball of death.

    Hello Hello.
    So I was recently given a brand new iMac 27inch by Apple, due to the death of my 2008 24inch iMac. Everything has been going great with it until today. I restarted it at some point this afternoon, and ever since then it has been acting quite strange. First thing i've noticed is that when I boot it up, when it gets to the white screen with the gray apple logo and the spinning thing, there is now a transparent rounded rectangle bar at the bottom of the screen for a minute or so...which was never the case before. Then, if it decides to proceed to OSX (sometimes it wont), the beach ball of death never stops spinning, which of course means i can do pretty much nothing. On top of that, it will not connect to the internet...my Macbook Pro connects fine to the wifi, so I know it's not my service. Bottom line, I have no idea what is going on. I've had it only for a couple of months, and haven't really had any problems until now. I'm hoping I'll just wake up in the morning and everything will be back to normal...
    Any ideas?
    Thanks for yer time

    I was able to get 'places' working on my Mac Pro by opening a library I created on my Macbook Pro (no crashing experienced in that install from the start) that contained a single geotagged image. The function works fine even after deleting the image, it just seemed to need the location data to get it kicking. I was creating a new library (since started as a trial) and was not upgrading an version 2 library.
    There is obviously a bug here that needs addressing though.

  • IMac late 2009 - beach ball of death

    My iMac is hanging a ridiculous amount - Every 30 seconds or so, no matter how few applications are running, I get the beach ball of death. It'll typically stall for a minute or more. Ugh.
    I upgraded the RAM to see if that would fix the problem, and it didn't (the computer still hangs when available RAM is in excess of 10GB). I've run the Apple Hardware Test, and there were no problems reported. I've run virus scans, and there were no problems reported. I've upgraded the machine to OSX Lion, and have all of my software updated to current versions.
    Please let me know if you have any ideas for a solution!
    System specs:
    iMac Late 2009, 21.5 inch
    Processor  3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory  12 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  ATI Radeon HD 4670 256 MB
    Software  Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2 (11C74)
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Yes... took it back to Mac Store who sent it to their depot who did a deeper scan and it was a failing harddrive.  Thank goodness for Time Machine and having backups... I am not as stressed as I would have been.  However, they reinstalled it with Snow Leopard instead of my purchased Mountain Lion.  When I brought it home I imported from Time Machine.  But another issue reared its head and fought with its password issues (seriously, hours of work there) only to find that I could not upgrade from SL to ML on my disc.  I did a check for software update from the Apple Icon (no Apple Store in SL) and it downloaded 1.6 GB of 5 updates (what appears to be the Java and others that are making the rounds currently).  When this installed I was unable to log in at all, unable to get past the login screen, with some heavy duty serious lag and blue screens.  So I am BACK at the Mac Store and having them do a complete wipe (again) and installation of Mountail Lion this time.  In theory I should be able to take my machine with a new harddrive, Mountain Lion installed, back home and import form Time Machine. 
    Preach it from the rooftops and mountains... buy an external hard drive and install Time Machine.  Seriously!  Do it now!  I am very happy that I finally, after a year, got around to doing this in time.

  • Spinning Beach Ball of Death

    I'm always geting the Spinning Beach Ball of Death, yet instead of it being from having heavy stuff open or not enough RAM, it's as simple as coming out of a screen saver, or clicking a forum button on a browser that can cause it. It doesn't stop, instead it just keeps going until you can do nothing, and can only restart the iMac. Some times you can move the curser around, yet Finder doesn't open the Force Quit and the shortcut doesn't work.
    How do you stop geting the SBBD??!! And it's not from a lack of RAM, as I got the max of 4 GB, and just having Firefox and a few much smaller applications open don't use even close to that much RAM. I got 72 Gigs of space left on the man harddrive, so it's not from having too little space there.
    Here's some logs from right when the last freeze and restart occured.

    Nope. But when OS X Lion came out, the forever spinning beach ball stopped. I have yet to be forced to power re-start my iMac because of this since upgrading to OS X Lion. Now only programs generate it, when using a lot of memory.

  • Frequent Crashes - Unrecoverable spinning beach ball of death - with 10.5.7

    I upgraded to 10.5.6 when it was released. I experienced multiple kernel panics daily, many of which cited graphics related faults. So I reformatted the HD, reinstalled Leopard, and installed the 10.5.5 combo update.
    Last week I installed the 10.5.7 combo update along with other minor non-os updates. Now, instead of having multiple kernel panics, I get multiple system Freezes at random. But usually associated with opening or closing dialog boxes (save as..., etc.), progress bars, and opening Apps from the dock. The system freeze is evident by the Spinning Beach Ball of Death. CMD-OPT-Esc doesn't not bring up the force quit dialog box, nor will any menu item be accessible. The temp increases as it's stuck in some loop. The case area near F3 and F4 gets very hot. I installed the Fan Control Pref Pane to force the fans on earlier.
    So, still under the assumption that it's a software issue. I did an Archive and Install of Leopard, and upgraded the OS using 10.5.7 combo update. Sadly, the system freezes still occur at random, but still mostly when animating dialog boxes. The last one was when I tried to attach a file in Mail.app (and then again while trying to open the system profiler while writing this post).
    The only way out of the freeze is to give the one-finger-salute to the power button, and power down.
    At first I thought this might be a software issue like a corrupt file, poorly written driver or kernel extension, or memory leak. But now, I'm concerned that this might be a sign of a failing GPU as the 8600M GT GPUs had some manufacturing trouble.

    I just updated last evening to 10.5.7 on my 24" White iMac (late 2006) and am having the same issue. I did it first on my 12" G4 iBook without any issues for a week so I went ahead and updated the iMac. I'm using it now with kid gloves. I've disabled Default Folder and DragThing to see if they are incompatible (no updates for either were available at this time) but I also have a feeling my Drobo storage device might be related because Spotlight was indexing after the update. I hadn't used spotlight much because I don't think it was in fact indexing the Drobo before the update. My search results seemed limited to the internal drive. The Drobo firmware and utility are both up-to-date as well.

  • Spinning Beach Ball of Death in iTunes when Inserting iPhone into Cradle

    Anyone else getting the spinning beach ball of death when inserting your iPhone into your cradle to sync? I'm getting that, but only on my iMac, not my MacBook Air.
    Any suggestions?
    YoungTurk

    I'm having the same problem. And it tells me that sync is not activated and asks me if want to activate sync. I say 'yes' and it then say it cannot activate sync would I like to 'override.' This just started happening this week. And it's very annoying. It's as if something is accessing my iphone and keeping iTunes from accessing the phone a while. If I wait long enough it shows up in iTunes. I'm running Symantic Norton Anti Virus. My first guess is there's a virus. Or Norton Anti Virus is trying to access the phone for some reason. I just noticed you now have the option of automatically checking the iphone for virus when connected. But when I deactivate the auto scan of the iphone option the ball still spins for minutes and minutes. I've spent HOURS trying to figure this out. Apple has got to help. I've not installed anything else new to my system in the past few months.

  • Spinning Beach Ball of Death and Kernal Panics - Capacitors?

    Hi,
    I got this email from my mother. This is her computer, not mine. I'm technically adept, so I'd be able to help her. I'm not sure this is actually a kernal panic, or if it's another issue such as capacitors?
    ================
    Lately sometimes (at least every couple of days) when I first turn on my iMac G5 (1.6 GHz, 1.25 GB RAM, OS 10.3.9) after it's been shut off all night long, I get the colored spinning beach ball of death for a minute or so. Then the background on the monitor turns grey-green and in a box in the middle of the screen is "You need to restart your computer. Hold down the Power button for several seconds or press the Restart button" - this is written in four languages. I assume this is a kernal panic. When I restart the computer it's okay.
    When I turned it on yesterday, however, the monitor was blue, but not normal blue as it was all "wavy." The dock only appeared about halfway up from the bottom of the screen, and only the bottom part of "Mail" appeared - no Mailbox or anything else. I turned it off with the power button and it was then all right.
    Today the same thing happened, but I didn't get anything on the screen, except it was a "wavy blue" so I again used the power button to turn it off, and then when I restarted it it came on fine.
    I've also noticed that the computer is much slower these past few weeks than previously, especially when using Safari. I have also seen the spinning beach ball of death in black instead of the usual colors.
    I have not installed any new programs lately, nor ran any Software Updates lately. I have recently repaired my Permissions.
    ================
    Thank you in advance for any suggestions and advice.
    Robbi

    Hi,
    Here is the kernal panic log. Thanks. We have done Dr Smoke's Resolving Kernal Panics.

  • I accidentally quit my CC on my Macbook pro and now the cloud icon is grayed out and every time I hover over it with the mouse I get the spinning beach ball of death on the icon. I have no idea how to open it because when I use spotlight search to open it

    I accidentally quit my CC on my Macbook pro and now the cloud icon is grayed out and every time I hover over it with the mouse I get the spinning beach ball of death on the icon. I have no idea how to open it because when I use spotlight search to open it it gives me a message saying "Creative Cloud is not open anymore" help!

    Since you didn't include any pertinent info such as the Mac model and OS version you are running, here is some general information:
    Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup
    Depending on which OS yours came with originally - and which OS you are now running - you would either need your original install disks - you can call Apple for replacements by giving them your serial number. Or you may be able to reinstall the OS by using recovery (again, depends on which model/which OS).

  • Spinning Beach Ball of Death (Mainly from idle)

    Hey folks..
    This might be a long one, so please bare with me !
    After about 3 fabulous faultless years of using my Macbook Pro, recently I've had lots of issues with the dreaded spinning beach ball of death !
    I wish I could say I was able to narrow it down to one application or one specific event, but sadly it's proving to not be that easy!
    Recently, the SBBOD has appeared MOSTLY when the macbook is sitting there idle. I tried all the suggestions I could find on the forums - ie not putting the HDD to sleep, etc etc.
    What generally happens, is I come back to the computer - and try to open an application (doesn't matter which one) and it bounces in the dock, and then the SBBOD appears, I can usually get to try and open other apps as this is happening, but in 20 seconds or so - everything is frozen except the mouse. I have tried leaving it for 5 mins, 10mins 2 hours, but in the end the only option is to manually turn off and swtich it back on. I thought it might have been just my user, but I tested when leaving it idle when other users logged on, and in the end - the same SBBOD
    This started happening about 3 weeks ago, when I was on Leopard (not snow).
    I tried to make sure the HDD was ok - so I install the SmartReporter app to monitor it - and nothing is pointing towards a HDD failure? SMART status is always showing ok.
    In the end, I backed up and formatted the HDD. I bought a copy of Snow Leopard and did a total fresh install. I didn't migrate any applications, just user data and re-install all Applications etc.
    I have Clean My Mac installed and MainMenu which runs all the repair permissions, and I keep it really clean and efficient since the fresh install - but still, the SBBOD is coming whenever I have the machine idle. I tried also, to install the smcFanControl to cool the CPU incase, it was over heating and then failing??
    So, in conclusion (thanks for reading this far !!) I really don't know what else to do?
    Seeing as it happened to all users logged in, I can assume it's not user specific?
    Meaning it could very likely actually be a HDD issue?
    Are there any good free diagnostic tools to see if it is a HDD issue?
    I'm almost tempted to buy a new HDD, and install that and not use the Migration Assistant to bring files across, but to just manually bring my information and documents.. thus creating the user from scratch? Are there any opinions on the Samsung SpinPoint M7's ?
    Honestly - I'm at a loss here, I can't see what else I can do?
    It's a Macbook Pro MA609LL from 2007 3Gb RAM, with a Samsung 500GB HDD (added way back in Nov 2008)
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
    CIAO!

    I would try running the extended version of your Apple Hardware Test.
    It's not perfect but may flag something.

  • Beach Ball of Death on OSX while trying to upload large files(updated)

    Hi,
    I did a search on this and while I got lots of hits none on this issue.
    We have a web portal that allows customers to upload files to a DAM server, we have control server.
    The issue is not the back end, the back end is php and all set up correctly, we have 2gb ram assigned to php, the upload_max_filesize is set to 1.8gb max post size is set accordingly.
    The flex app loads, user selects large file say 1.6gb ( we do file size check to make sure its below the limit), click upload button, beach ball of death shows, a little while later the file uploads.
    Great so far, now the user tries another files same size, beach ball of death, script times out (we capture this and end gracefully). If the user restarts safari then the file will upload just fine.
    Seems you can upload a large file first time and small files subsequently below 1.2gb, but you can not upload multiple large files.
    Seems some sort of memory leak, I was looking at converting this upload app to send files via ftp, but if the flash player needs to process/load the files first then I don't think this will work looking to increase the file size ceiling to 4gb via ftp.
    Code is a bit involved but in the end just calls file reference upload, then beach ball appears
    Any ideas? player version 10.0.32.18 debug
    UPDATED 09_17_09
    It appears to be a memory leak in the player when in safari, the file is read but the memory not freed up after completion. Firefox frees the used memory after upload and you can continue. Not sure if Apple or Adobe issue.
    However why bother reading the file first? can we have an HTP stream file upload in the web flash player like AIR as. This way the player would not care on the file size and the limitation would reside on the server, which we can deal with.

  • My Macbook pro started running incredibly slow and I am getting the spinning beach ball of death across all applications.

    I have no idea why this is happening. I normally use Word, Excel, Google Chrome and sometimes Photoshop when using my computer and then one day it started getting super slow. This is my etrecheck.
    Computer running slow all of the sudden. Getting spinning beach ball of death through all applications all the time. Computer losing charge while not plugged in.

    Linc,
    Thanks for taking the time to reply. The beachball is literally every other minute. I tried to take the time to it's most basic second and it was 4:01:04 - I am currently backpacking in Laos with my bf and we are travel writers/photographers and he is helping me get this info.
    We didn't know what anonymyze meant but we tried to make sure you couldn't see my name. So far the spinning beach ball has occurred 4 times in just writing these 4 lines.
    We tried to make sure we didn't overwhelm you with the 4000 lines or more but just did a couple days worth of text. Thanks again for your time.

    My MacBook (late 2009 Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63) often runs VERY slow...beach ball of death frequently.  My page ins (3.29GB), page outs (5.64BG), and swap files (10GB) seem extremely high in comparison to most other discussions in here.   I don't know how to copy the pie chart so it shows on here but here's what it says right now:
    Free - 176 MB
    Wired - 592MB
    Active - 843MB
    Inactive - 432MB
    Used - 1.82 GB
    VM size - 198GB
    The page ins and page outs have 0 bytes/sec in the parenthesis even though the numbers are so high. 
    Any help anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated!!!

    You difinately need more ram. 2gb is the bare minimum to run just the Lion OS, anything extra will slow your Mac to a crawl. Upgrade to 8gb from either Crucial http://www.crucial.com/ or OWC http://eshop.macsales.com/
    And you will be a happy camper!

  • Finder periodically plagued with Spinning Beach Ball of Death

    SBBOD = Spinning Beach Ball of Death
    Could someone who understands MacOS X internals please explain to me why the finder needs to wait for an external Firewire drive to spin up to:
    1. Open an app from the doc. (sbbod until the FW drive spins up)
    2. Quit an app via right clicking the dock icon of the app. (shows 'Application not Responding' until FW drive spins up then
    'quit' is the available choice)
    3. Get a running program to respond. (sbbod then app responds as usual when FW drive spins up)
    Let me set the scene. I do not have 'put drives to sleep' in energy saver. Spotlight is configured to ignore all of my external volumes. None of my apps use the external volumes for scratch or anything else. I rarely if ever directly save to an external volume from any application. I cannot change the behavior of the FW drive going into Stand-By mode (I've checked with Seagate and the feature is not changeable via firmware or dip-switch/jumper settings)
    My only thought is poor filesystem buffer cache management. Problem is even that doesn't make sense. If I haven't read from or written to the external drives there shouldn't be ANY in memory buffers associated with the now in stand-by state firewire drive.
    The SBBOD usually only takes 5-10 seconds to go away and Finder behavior to return to normal. I know it sounds 'petty' but it definitely is a flaw in what is supposed to be (and usually is) a very responsive GUI. I've experienced this annoying behavior with the standard Apple apps (Mail, Address Book, iCal, iTunes etc) and my 3rd party apps (Photoshop CS3, Excel, Word, Cisco VPN client. I'm thinking about writing a crontab entry to 'touch' the FW drive every few minutes to keep it spun up as a workaround.
    Running 10.6.1 and hoping Apple would have gotten it right with this release.

    AFAIK, the Seagate bare HDs don't have that limitation. At least the 750 GB SATA, ST3750640AS, one doesn't have the standby mode. Neither do any in that family.
