Mac beach ball problem.

Hi everyone,
I have macbook pro mid 2012, i7 processor, 8GB of RAM, 750 Harddrive. It was running perfect, I partitioned the disk into two, and made one partition full with movies. Before it was OK, it start becoming slow so, I think it might be because of no disk space on one of the partition. I bought external harddrive and transfer all movies to that harddrive. It was still slow so I formatted the harddrive, made it one partition and install mavericks. It still shows the beach ball problem. I did hardware test, RAM test. All was fine. I tried to recover to mountain lion but the internet was slow so it could not be downloaded, also my wifi automatically disconnects after some minutes so l have to reconnect my wifi and start the download. Please guys help me, what is the problem with my mac?.......

I followed to step two, it was slow. The same problem continued here also. No beachball in Safe mode, but yes there was beachball problem in safe mode too. The internet connection disconnects frequently.
Console message might help you.

  • Macbook Pro Beach Ball Problems

    I have a '08 MBP that has the spinning beach ball showing up in all the apps during use and everything runs slower.
    Web pages take 5-10 seconds to load.
    Lightroom photos take 5-10 seconds to load. Commands and mouse selections take 4-5 seconds to respond.
    It slows down even more with an external monitor being used.
    The fan runs high 85% of the time.
    Hard drive was replaced with an SSD about 2 years ago, which helped calm HD noise.
    The HD has 15.5 GB left right now, but the beach ball problem has been there even with half the HD full.
    Problem has been going on for a couple of years, but I've managed around it.
    This issue occurs even with only 1 app running. For instance, I'll shut all apps except one application, and it still drags, whether that one app be Safari or LR.
    I realize the MBP is older, but it used to be very responsive with the same apps. Never used to see the beach ball during app usage, only at startup of app if anytime.
    I believe the RAM is maxed out for what this machine can handle at 4GB, but again, the system didn't slow down before.
    I believe the problem may be some processes running in the background that are dragging down everything, but not sure what to look for.
    Any advice any fixes are greatly appreciated.

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can read it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return  three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
    12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

  • Long time iTunes beach-balling problem

    Guys,
    This issue has been driving me insane for a good 3 years now and I cant seem to find an answer to this anywhere (not even by calling Apple Support).
    Basically the problem is this; I have an early 2008 (8,1) iMac and ever since it's purchase, iTunes has constantly frozen on me with the spinning beach ball forcing me to manually powering down the iMac by holding the power button.
    I've upgraded 2 operating systems since its original purchase: Leopard > Snow Leopard > Lion, with no luck.
    I've upgraded to every single new release of iTunes when made available, still no luck.
    I've low-level formatted and reinstalled Mac OS countless times, again...no luck. I cant seem to find out what the issue is.
    I have approx 24,500 songs in iTunes, and I believe my iMac spec is fairly decent, Which is as follows:
    Intel 3.06GHz Core 2 Duo
    4GB DDR2 Ram
    1TB HDD
    nVidia GeForce 8800GS
    PLEASE HELP!!!!

    By authorizing her computer it only allows her to play the tunes. It does not give her access to your account for purchases.
    The tunes a attached to your account and there is no way that I have heard to transfer them to another person.
    You can contact the iTS Customer Service via the links on this page and see how they respond or have a different suggestion - http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/

  • InDesign CS5 beach ball problem

    Hi - I haven't used my ID CS5 for years, but now when I want to it launches into the beach ball.  I am on a MAC and it ID opens okay, but when I ask it to create a new document it launches the beach ball.  I was trying to open an old document with broken links, and I think I deleted that document, but it hasn't helped.  I did the trouble shooting of using cntrol, cmd, shift and option on the launch of ID and I was able to reset preferences, but still have the problem. 
    Other troubleshooting  I have tried.  I moved the Mark II file to the desktop and back and the plugins and the Recovery data file.  But it is still happening.  Maybe my novice troubleshooting has made matters worse.  Any suggestions? 

    Hi Bob - Yes, I updated the OS in the last four years.   I'm hoping there
    is an update I can do for ID i guess.  Since I have reset the preferences
    already.  I may need to move the plugins back over to the ID folder.  I
    think they may still be on the desktop from some of the troubleshooting I
    did.
    Thanks.

  • Mac beach balls for 30 sec before printing

    When printing form any mac program ie) word, textEdit, safari the program locks up, beach balls, and uses about 90% CPU. Only after it does this for *about 30 seconds* the print dialogue box comes up and asks me to confirm the print, and then prints fine.
    Any ideas on how to solve this? Might using the repair option on the system disks help?
    A few other notes:
    1. Can print fine on the Windows side via VMware fusion
    2. I have run repair permissions and disk repair in disk utility
    3. Running the most recent version of Mac OSX Leopard
    4. The printer is hooked into the Mac via ethernet

    When you say "Reset the printing system and add the printer queue again" do you simply mean remove the printer form System preferences and then re-add it again?
    No. To reset the printing system, you open Print & Fax and move the mouse over the Printers list. Then, hold down the Control key and click. The 'Reset printing system' pop-up will appear. Click it to reset.
    This will delete all your printer queues so you will need to add the queue/s again, but your driver software will still be on your Mac so you will not have to install the driver again.

  • Eternal beach ball after 10.8.5 Combo Update

    Just installed the 10.8.5 combo update on my mac mini (2013, i7).
    Everything was, of course, working perfectly with 10.8.4
    Now I get the eternal spinning beach ball just before the login.
    I've already verified the boot hard drive, repaired permissions, cleared the chaches, reset pram, reset smc, etc.
    Pretty much everything I can do just shy of a clean reinstall (which would've taken less time).
    Boots fine in sigle user and safe mode.
    Only workaround has been to remove the physical ethernet connection (using wireless) and ensure the two usb bus powered devices -- a canon lide scanner, and an Asus USB DVD burner -- are disconnected prior to booting the computer. Symptoms that are widespread and linked directly to the .5 update and are not addressed in the supplementals.
    Any other possible solutions or perhaps someone knows if apple is still working on the issue?
    Unplugging USB devices is merely a hassle, but not one i'm going to live with. I will take the time to reinstall and stop with the 10.8.4 update if I have to. I'd rather not, but since there was nothing wrong with the system or hardware I have no problem with stopping there. the .5 update didn't include anything i needed.
    Don't waste your time posting if you are going to advise me that it's something other than the update that borked things. It's the update and I've already confirmed it. It's not my software as i run nothing aside from MS Office and Adobe CS6 beyond what apple preinstalled. Unless you can specifically point to a conflict with the files in the update and either of those two packages, keep your opinions out of this discussion. If you can, i welcome the data.
    Thank you.

    I also encountered this "spinning beach ball of death right when I'm supposed to see the login screen" issue. It happened to three of the laptops I manage (two MacBook Pro 13" retina, and one MacBook Pro 15" retina; all late 2012 models). The "spinning beach ball of death" symptoms started manifesting themselves right after I performed "software update" on them.
    The symptoms: I get the spinning beach ball (or sometimes just stuck with a grey screen) when waking from sleep, when switching users, right after a reboot, right after a cold boot, just as I was trying to get back to work after the screen saver kicked in ... it doesn't happen 100% of the time, but I'd say about 3/4 of the times I expect to see a login screen, I got the spinning beach ball of death (or the grey screen of death).
    This is what I think solved the problem: Rebuilding the Spotlight Search Index.
    (Apple's How-To instruction here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2409 )
    Be sure to disable screen saver, set "computer sleep" and "display sleep" timers to infinity before the start the rebuilt process (explanation below).
    I also did other things like resetting PRAM, repairing disk permissions, rebuilding the directories with DiskWarrior, etc. But the best I could tell, it's the rebuilding of the Spotlight Search Index that actually did it. I speculate that the system, while trying to show you the login screen, was also trying to fetch some images or info (the users' login profile pictures, the background wallpaper, whatever), but somehow couldn't find the data and got stuck because of some issue with the Spotlight Search Index. So once the Spotlight Search Index is rebuilt, the "spinning beach ball" problem went away.
    So which software update component broke the system? As counter-intuitive as it may seem, I'm pointing my finger at the component Apple calls the "Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update" version 5.01. As I mentioned earlier, I observed this problem on three different laptops, and I updated them weeks apart on multiple occasions ... I've gone days and weeks on two of them after the 10.8.5 Supplemental Update without problem, I've gonve days on another laptop after the Safari 6.1, Remote Desktop Client 3.7.0, iTunes 11.1.3 updates without problem. The only constant that applies across all three laptops was that right after the "Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update" version 5.01 was applied, the "spinning beach ball of death" symptoms started manifesting themselves. That's why I'm pointing my finger at the "Digital Camera RAW Compatibility" version 5.01 update as the prime suspect. (Secondary suspects, if I have to name them, would be the Safari 6.1, Remote Desktop Client 3.7.0, iTunes 11.1.3 updates.)
    On rebuilding the Spotlight Search Index ... this is a long process. It's will likely take hours (depends on how much data you have on your drive). You don't want the screen saver or the display sleep or the computer sleep timer to trigger and lead you right back to the spinning beach ball while you wait for the Spotlight Search Idex to rebuild. That's why the recommendation to disable screen saver and set the sleep timers to "infinity" before starting the index rebuild process. If you try monitor the rebuild process by eyeing at the "mds" and mdworker" CPU utilization ... don't get faked out by the occasional lulls when the system shows you that "mds" and "mdworker" CPU utilizations are zeros. "mds" and "mdworker" appear to take short breaks once in a while, and that starts up in earnest again eating up close to 100% of CPU cycles when they work. Rebuilding the Spotlight Search Index is supposed to take "hours," so best guest, I'd say wait at least one hour, then check if "mds" and "mdworker" CPU utilization figures stay consistently close to zero for a few minutes before calling it done. I do not know of any better way to tell if the system has finished rebuilding the Spotlight Search Index.
    All the above are based on my experience rescueing a grand total of THREE computers back from their software update-induced "spinning beach ball of death" problem. So granted it is a very small sample base. My apologies in advance if it turns out the above does not solve the problem for you. (I'm just going to skip the "Digital Camera RAW Compatibility" version 5.01 update going forward as I have no desire to "recreate the problem" just to test my hypothesis.)
    Good luck!

  • New iMac beach ball and performance

    I recently purchased a new iMac direct from Apple.
    For months I had been using a Mac Mini at work with Mac OS X 10.6.6.
    My new iMac has also been updated to 10.6.6. Also, I have installed the same software on both computers. They are essentially the same.
    I was very excited about my purchase since my Mac Mini at work behaved beautifully. No crashes and no beach balls. It ran like butter.
    My new iMac has more memory and a newer/faster processor than the Mac Mini at work, so I expected it to be even better.
    So far, however, that has not been the case. I don't see any noticeable improvement in how my iMac runs vs the Mac Mini. Worse, my iMac is frequently hit with beach balls that routinely last 10 to 30 seconds per incident. It has been extremely frustrating. Also, the new iMac crashes quite often, which really surprised me. I have to routinely force quit apps and reboot which almost never happens at work.
    Any ideas why the older computer seems to perform way better than my brand new one?
    Thanks!

    Update:
    I don't know if this will be useful, but I'm documenting this for the record. Any confirmation of these observations would be most appreciated.
    As a Perl programmer (a big reason why I went with iMac in the first place) one of the very first things I did out of the box with my new computer was dig into the terminal and install some Perl modules with CPAN.
    I think I did this the very same night I first turned my iMac on. And I can't remember if there was ever a time when I didn't have the beach ball problem.
    Eventually I was unable to install new modules or even run CPAN at all. The computer gave me a "permission denied" response even when I was logged in as the root user. I finally learned to solve this problem by going to the Disk Utility and fixing permissions.
    I've been using my computer for 30 minutes now and happened to notice I haven't had any beach balls yet. That's a very rare thing for me.
    So I'm wondering if the beach ball issues I've been experiencing were related to the stuff I did with CPAN or not.
    Anyone ever experienced anything like this?
    In the meantime I'll keep an eye on things and report back later with additional observations. Thanks!

  • Spinning beach ball for 45-60 seconds, then fine

    For several months now, I've had the spinning beach ball issue on my Macbook Pro. Within the first 5 minutes after boot up, the spinning beach ball will occur, seemingly at random (no specific app or action), for 45-60 seconds. While this happens, the system becomes completely unresponsive. But after this occurrence within the first five minutes after startup, it never happens again and everything is fine - until I reboot of course.
    I am running Snow Leopard and this problem was happening before I installed Snow Leopard, so that's not it. But one thing I did do, which I am semi-convinced is the culprit, is I replaced my hard drive with a Seagate 500 mb Momentus drive. The actual model # is SEAST9500420AS. I don't know for sure, but that's around the time this issue first started. I know there is/was a spinning beach ball problem with the newer Macbook Pros and they were attributing it to the hard drive which just so happens to be the same hard drive I now have in my Macbook Pro. There was recently an EFI update that seemed to fix the problem for the newer models, but mine is the first generation right when they went to Intel chips (bought mine in April, 2006). Problem is, if it is my drive, this new EFI update that fixes the issue on the new models won't install on mine.
    I also did a verify disk and repair disk permissions, but that was no help. Another thing I found going through the discussion groups was that the problem could happen because both the Macbook Pro and the Seagate drive have anti-shock technology that could conflict with one another. So if you disabled the anti-shock on the Macbook Pro, it might solve the problem as it seemed to for some folks out there. But I did that and it didn't help either.
    I'm thinking it's my hard drive, but don't know how to fix it. But it could be something I haven't looked at yet or thought of. I've been trying everything the last several months with no luck and it's been driving me batty! What's really strange is it only happens once and always within the first 5 minutes after start up. Anybody have any suggestions? Thanks.

    I just finished doing lots of different tests to try to solve my problem. Didn't resolve it, but I did manage to eliminate some things and narrow it down further.
    First I removed all my login items and restarted my computer. That didn't fix the problem.
    So then I thought it might have something to do with Safari since that's one of the first things I open up when I start my computer and there are numerous reports in the discussions of spinning beach balls with Safari 4.0.3 which I have. So I purposely did not open Safari after startup. Problem still happened.
    So then I thought maybe it has something to do with my internet connection. So I disconnected my internet connection and rebooted. Then I only opened programs that don't use online access. I leisurely opened up a program, did a few things in it, closed it, and then did the same thing with another program. Did some things with Finder. Purposely did not rush things. Waited 4-5 seconds after every operation's completion before executing another task. Never had more than one program open at any given time to eliminate any issue with two many resources open. You guessed it - the problem STILL happened. Not that it matters, but it happened when I hit Command-I on my hard drive icon to get the info pane. A fairly innocuous task. Froze up with the spinning beach ball for at least 45-50 seconds. Tried clicking a few other things while this was happening, but nothing. Once it freed up, a few things I clicked on previously suddenly became active and everything was fine again. Tried Command-I for a lot of different things with no problem. Response was instantaneous.
    It pretty much happens 3-4 minutes into a session and then never happens again. And I think my test here eliminated several possibilities. Very frustrating. I hope this helps someone come up with a possible solution. Thanks.

  • Beach Ball When Viewing Video

    Running 5.0.2, I have this scenario constantly since upgrading to Safari 5+ :
    1. Safari has been running for several hours and I have 2-3 gigs free RAM according to Memory Stick.
    2. I go to apple.com/trailers to view movie trailers
    3. I choose a movie and click on the smallest size trailer available.
    4. I get a spinning beach ball for 30-60 seconds before the trailer plays.
    5. After the trailer, I can empty Safari's cache and clear the history, then quit and restart Safari.
    6. Go back to apple.com/trailers, pick a movie, a size trailer to view, and it begins to play almost instantly.
    7. This also occurs with video on other sites.
    I have followed numerous suggestions from this forum on various Safari 5 issues (upgrade Flash, remove 3rd party plugins, repair permissions, etc.) all to no avail.
    Does anyone know why I have to empty the cache in order to have videos/trailers load and play promptly?
    Thanks for any suggestions.
    WK

    Klaus - a follow up on the Safari video beach ball problem:
    I implemented your suggestions about 24 hours ago. Just now, after a day of normal/heavy Safari use, I went back to apple.com/trailers and tried to view three new trailers. Same problem as before:
    •First trailer: beach ball for 2+ minutes (not exaggerating) before trailer played. (Even then it was jerky.)
    •Second trailer: beach ball for about 1 minute before trailer played.
    •Third trailer: beach ball for about <10 seconds before trailer played.
    Hey -- at least the wait times are getting shorter the more I try to watch!
    So apparently the fixes to the QuickTime settings weren't a fix.
    I then emptied the Safari cache (Safari menu) and went back to Trailer #1 (above). It began playing after about a 5 second wait (as did #s 2 and 3). So somehow emptying the Safari cache before playing trailers helps a lot.
    If anyone has further thoughts on this mystery, I'm all ears. Thanks for your efforts thus far.

  • 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

    ("idx" flips back and forth between 1 and 2 each error.)

  • Persistent Spinning Beach Ball

    I have a spinning beach ball problem that I can't resolve.
    The computer will boot up to the login menu then when I login as a user (it happens with all users) the screen flips to my background then the beach ball starts. I can hear the drive working and over the course of 30 min. it eventually loads my desktop. After a few times of scrolling through the finder window with 5 min beach balls the window will scroll freely. Ditto with all other programs (Safari, Appleworks, Mail etc.) where after initial hangs they work with no beach balls.
    Other oddities - Top right login menu does not highlight user and the words LOGOUTSTRING is displayed where it should read Login Menu at the bottom.
    - Couldn't access System Profiler
    - 2 days ago iMac would boot up to Login Window at this speed. It took about 45 min. but boots up fine now.
    - Lately, prior to these beach balls I have been having trouble uploading pictures to iPhoto from my son's digital camera. Computer wouldn't recognize it as being connected at the USB port.
    Tried - manual daily, weekly, monthly sudo file clean up
    - fixing permissions
    - deleted an odd iPhoto cache file that was dated 1903
    - DiskWarrior wouldn't work because I got an error message. Hardware test OK though.
    I have 55gb of available HD space according to Activity Monitor. Also, I have had it up during some beach ball incidents and it actually shows low CPU usage during those times. Printer works fine.
    Connected to computer is Canon i350 printer and HP scanjet 3670
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi northernapple
    deleted an odd iPhoto cache file that was dated
    1903
    that must have been a steam powered déraguer black
    and white.
    It sounds like your hard disk has a major problem.
    Can you run Disk Warrior from a boot disk. If not,
    can you boot from the OS X Install CD and run Repair
    Disk from Disk Utilities? Then afterwards try to run
    Diskwarrior if needed.
    Attempt to back up your files now, as you may need to
    reinstall your OS.
    regards roam
    Thanks Roam,
    Just got back to it. Busy work week.
    Hopefully a major reinstall will be the last resort but backing up now is definitely wise.
    I was attempting to run DiskWarrior from the cd at the time. I may try that again after backup because I have been able to run permissions a couple of times whereas it previously hung part way through.

  • Spinning Beach Ball / frozen finder / SugarSync / MacBook

    I'm putting this up with this title to help hopefully many who encounter this:
    Just got a 2012 MacBook Air, Refurbished, 8 MB RAM, 256 GB.  It's refurbished by Apple.  I run SugarSync.  On my third day, the finder beach ball started spinning almost every time I clicked on the Apple menu or the Finder icon in the dock or any folder on the desktop. I couldn't get down to force-quit finder without first clicking on a program's open window and then on the Apple menu.  Restarting doesn't solve it, either.  The other thing that was occurring was that my Air was running very hot, the fan was running hard, and the battery was racing to be at 10%.
    Thanks to macjack, I seem to have a solution.  I've just retitled the information so others can find it better.  Here it is:
    1.  Go to System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login items and delete SugarSync ( - ) as a login item (don't worry, this doesn't delete the program and you can always add it back as a login item with the ( + ) after all the steps below to solve the problem.
    2.  Quit the SugarSync program (to do this, click on its icon on your top menu bar and select Quit).
    3.  Go to Username/Library/Preferences folder, and trash the SugarSync "plist" file, which is:  com.sharpcast.SugarSync.plist  (this is the corrupted file that's causing your finder problem;  and, don't worry, a new, clean plist file for SugarSync with all your information left untouched will be created the next time you open SugarSync).
    4.  Empty your trash; then restart your computer.
    5.  Upon restart, open the SugarSync program and you should now have no Finder, spinning-beach-ball problems.  The fan should be off now and battery power creeping slowly down instead of racing to 10%.
    6.  Finally, put SugarSync back on your Startup at Login list by going to System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login items, hitting the ( + ), and navigating to choose it. 
    You should be beach-ball free now, with no intense battery drain, heat, and fan.

  • Going to 'Sent' gets me spinning beach ball

    When I go to check my 'Sent' folder in Mail, I keep getting the spinning beach ball and I end up having to force quit Mail.
    Any idea what's going on?
    Thanks

    This is also happening when I have an AOL account installed now for some reason. I have to go into Preferences real quickly to delete it and that takes care of the beach ball problem.
    So basically, AOL account is causing my Mail problems.

  • Having trouble with Safari.yahoo-receiving beach ball

    Lately, I get the dreaded Beach-ball using Yahoo on safari-does anyne know if there is somrthing going on-yahoo customer service is helpless
    Thanks

    Still having beach ball problem, have gone through Applecare several times, and reset safari and cache etc but to no avail.
    Does not happen on Firefox and can go days without the problem.  as i said, do not have the symptons for ADWARE.
    Can anyone give me some unique solutions? I have checked everything on CLAM X av and not infected file found.
    Thanks

  • I have an early 2008 Mac Pro, which has re-booting problems. Also what does the spinning beach-ball indicate?

    Hi, I have an early 2008 Mac Pro which has re-booting problems.
    Processor speed is: 2.8
    Memory: 2GB 800 MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM
    2 x 28GHz Quad Core Intel Xeon
    I am running OSX Yosemite Version 10.10
    My Mac Pro keeps re-booting. Last year I had to replace my graphics card. My original card was the ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 255MB, and that is what I have now. At this precise moment my Mac Pro is running perfectly, except that it is slow and the spinning beach-ball keeps appearing. I have managed to do some work with the disk utilities, verifying, cleaning and partitioning. Some errors were found and when it was cleaned this seemed to help my Mac Pro to function properly. Although I am able to use my Mac Pro now, from day to day I still experience re-boot problems. Also quite unexpectedly my mac dictionary has an error, it closed itself down and will not open at all, I had the message to say that a report will be sent to Apple.
    I have tried starting my computer with an external hard drive fitted via a USB cable, I use for back-ups. This worked and I was able to wipe my hard drive clear and replace all info from the back up I had done only a few days ago.
    This worked for a few days and then the same problem started again.
    I am beginning to wonder if I need to buy a new hard drive.
    If there is anyone who has some answers to help me solve my problem, I would be most grateful.
    Robert

    When you have the beachball activity, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.  
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above.
    Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first.
    Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of it useless for solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
