Osx10.6 keeps freezing how can I fix without turning power off?

osx10.6 keeps freezing how can I fix without turning power off?  It has happened a dozen times in the last ten days -
Force Quit will not respond
When the freeze occurs the cursor will move, but not activate any application
The only way to restore activity is to turn off MacBook with power button
I do not like doing this, and am happy that so far Time Machine has not stopped functioning when I turn power back on.

Yesterday my macbook pro freezed again, two times in 20 minutes!!!
When i restarted the computer there was this message (maybe it is useful for resolving my problem):

  • My brand new iMac keeps freezing, how can I fix this?

    I have only had my iMac for about a month and it freezes all the time. I can move the mouse but can't click on a thing. Does anyone know any possible solutions?

    I have had this happen to me twice in the past week. Right now is the 2nd time. I  can't click on anything on my computer. I have tried with my Wacom tablet and even plugged in a mouse ( my normal one is bluetooth). The last time the only thing that worked was rebooting with the startup dics and running utilities, but it has only been a week and it has happened again. The catch is that the first time it happened I was running Snow Leopard, but I upgraded to Lion several days ago. What the heck is going on with my iMac and how can i fix it? Can I still use the startup disc that came with the computer even though I now have Lion?

    I have the 1st ipad 3G wifi cell 64g and it keeps crashing how can I fix this ?
    I have restored network settings and cleared history etc ..

    Try closing all apps and reboot the iPad. Clear Safari again as well.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    Running mac os x version 10.6.8

    Easiest way is to have an external drive to which you copy the things you store like pictures, movies, and music
    which take up a lot of space. Then delete them fron the main drive and clean it up with one of the maintenance utilities. You can readily access the external drive's contents whenever you wish.

  • Satellite L20: Can I disconnect devices like USB Mouse without turning power off?

    Hi, all.
    I'm an owner of Satellite L20 notebook. I have always turned power of my computer off when i need to connect or disconnect any USB Device. Some devices have a special icon on the taskbar to disconnect them but some doesn't (USB FDD or flash disks). Can I disconnect and connect devices like USB Mouse or Scanner wihtout turning power off?

    Hi
    Of course that you can do this. Because of that there is Safely remove Hardware option. All external devices connected on your unit should be listed there. If you want to remove some of them click on it and click on STOP button.
    When the selected device disappears from the list you can remove it from the port. I have done this many times with different units and external devices ithout any problems.

    You are missing two plugins required to achieve your goal. Download [http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/ Adobe Shockwave for Director] and download [http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/ Apple Quicktime] You need the latter plugin to support Shockwave.
    Similarly, you can watch youtube in HTML5 now instead of Flash. All you need to do is to sign up to the HTML5 trial by clicking the link at the foot of this page: [http://www.youtube.com/html5 HTML5 Trial Signup] You don't have to fill in any forms.
    But please check your plugins at [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugins Check] site. Some of the others might be out of date.
