Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads 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:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. 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 next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
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. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Keeps freezing and not responding

For the past few weeks my web browser keeps freezing up on me and i get the message on top of the browser saying not responding. I thought my computer was all cluttered with files or cookies. So I reinstalled my windows 7. In the process deleting everything on my computer. I thought this was going to fix the problem but no luck. It is still doing the same thing.

It started happening to me when I updated Flashplayer. Not only did Firefox hang but sometimes it would also crash. I went into 'about:crashes' and checked the last 5 crash reports and every report said "plugin Shockwave Flash Version:11.9.900.117 Filename:NPSWF32_11_9_900_117.dll"
I uninstalled Firefox then reinstalled it and now it's working fine. Maybe it was an add-on that was upsetting Flashplayer. I now only install add-ons one at a time before testing them.

My MacBook Pro keeps freezing and not responding correctly.

Okay, so yesterday I finished FaceTiming a friend and I closed my MacBook Pro like I normally do so it can sleep on my account. But when I open it, it keeps crashing (like it shows the screen and then for like 15 seconds it shows a gray screen and then back to the desktop background) and its not responding as fast as it normally does. It doesn't even show the dock where Safari and FaceTime and iTunes is. But when I go to the Guest User account, it all works fine. I don't know if I've been hacked or not but I would really appreciate it if someone has found the solution to this problem. Thank you so very much for trying to solve it in advance and Happy Holidays.

Illustrator CC 64-bit release 2014.1.0 keeps freezing and "not responding" on windows 8.1

Every time I return focus to the app it freezes and the app says "not responding". It starts to work in about 10 seconds. Also, while I'm in the app it will do the same thing, especially it seems when I click in a panel. It seems to help if I go off-line so I'm thinking it is going online to check something perhaps?
Please help, Illustrator is practically unusable at this point.
Thanks,
Nigel

Nigel,
You may try this Extensions Suitcase 5 update:

It was suggested in a somewhat similar case recently, but is still untested.

Hi a, Glad you removed Norton. On Skype, go to Tools & Manage add ons. Find any add ons that pertain to
Skype and Disable them. Once these problems have been solved then you can always enable any that have been disabled.
Anytime you lose an Internet connection you will receive those kind of errors. Wireless connections are subject to a loss of signal. I would contact your Carrier and report them.
Any site or game that tells you to update Flash Player, ignore. You did the right thing going to Youtube. If that works, then disregard anything to the contrary. That site is having a problem, not you. Take care not to disrupt your Flash Player Installation!!
On Avast not being able to update would most likely be due to the loss of signal. That Avast updated 3 times is not unusual. That is just a sign of additional risks. I had Avast and during some periods that was done also. No problem.
While you are still in the process of removing programs and troubleshooting, if there are any add ons/plug-ins/extensions that are causing an issue, I would disable them. Once you have your troubleshooting done, then see about them.
On McAfee, didn't that Install with FP at one time? I think you removed that as I recall. You can refer to the instructions I gave you to remove it and make sure it is not there.
Thanks,

My iPad's internal keyboard keeps freezing and not responding.

I'll type on the screen keyboard and nothing happens for a few minutes. The whole device just freezes. After a while the keys will slowly and limpingly highlight and appear in whatever I'm trying to type. This occurs in all apps, from the device's lock screen, to pages, to email. The rest of the ipad works fine. I've tried wipeing, rebooting, etc., looked in manuals and online and I can't find anything. What's wrong?

That was remarkably easy. Can't believe I didn't see/think of that. Thanks!

Safari freezes and not respond, Chrome works great why?

I just upgraded to Yosemite, and Safari keeps freezing and not responding I have tried everything from removing aches, remove web history but keep freezing. On the other hand, Chrome works fantastic so needs to be something only related with Safari. Apple says Safari goes 6x faster than other web browser, well in my hands in can prepare my lunch and finish it before it opens one page, so 6x faster maybe in Cupertino because not in my laptop. Any suggestions of how to fix the Safari????

Hi ...
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
Click: Remove All Website Data
No open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that didn't help, try troubleshooting extensions.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect: Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.

Unless you get that WRT54G for free or next to free, pass on it and pick up an old apple WAP off eBay or similar site. Like you my iPad has a connectivity problem with the WRVS4400N running iOS 4.2.1, where it didn't have trouble with iOS 3.2.2 and ran fine for five months.
My solution at the office was to spur a second router off my DSL router just for the iPad. The first was a WRT54G that had to be set to only one 802.11 protocol to keep the iPad reliably connected, but swapped it out for an old airport extreme that I kept on after testing it to be good. With a home network like you describe, I would run a subnet off the WRVS4400N just for iPad using an apple WAP (the configuration app for Windows is easy to use).
Good luck.

Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
