Practically EVERYTHING is "Not Responding"!
Okay, today around 12:30AM my internet crashed while I was running Skype. I fixed it, but now Skype and practically everything else will start to "Not Respond". I will go to call someone on Skype and it will Not Respond for at least 15 minutes, causing me to have to "Force Quit" it, but that doesn't work, IT STILL STAYS UP! I then have to emergency shutdown my computer by pressing and holding the button because the shutdown takes just as long. And while trying to run a game on Firefox, it stopped responding. Same situation. Even Time Machine has frozen! I've never had this problem before with my Macbook. I would really love some help with this! If it helps, I'm running Leopard.

It's about a year and two months, Capacity is 232.57GB, Available is 190.69GB, and 2GB of RAM. And I'm not sure where the original install disks are, but right at the moment Skype is running just fine without freezing. It's 9:40PM and I haven't been on my computer all day. I find this really strange. I'll check to see if other things freeze but right now it seems to be running alright?

Hi all,
I've had my Satellite C55 for around 6 months now and at first, everything was fine. Recently, it has become unreliable, jerky and regularly goes into fits of "not responding" when just using Firefox or Microsoft Word. It stopped responding when trying to just post this message...
I'm not too sure what's up with it and I could do with a hand. I've attached a DxDiag dump and screenshot of the task manager during one of the not responding periods.
Any help will be appreciated!

hi, my firefox and safari are both having difficulty loading certain parts of web pages. previous to this my firefox would freeze and state that a script was not responding. i would stop the script and reload the page and everything would be fine. now though the pages just load very very slowly or load leaving out certain pictures and video content. i've tried clearing my cache's and cookies, resetting my browser etc, but it seems like its a system issue as both safari and firefox are having issues. i've run Avast to screen for malware and it came up empty. any suggestions?

After installing, boot holding down CMD+s, then when the prompt shows, type in...

Fixes a lot of problems, and besides, if your Mac ever gets to the point it won't Boot... this is a life saver!

Got Iphone 6 updated to IOS 8.0.2, now I can't use it as everything became too large on screen and its not responding?
Hi ka_tin,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If the largeness you are seeing is related to the Accessability Zoom function (a feature that allows you to zoom in on the screen for people with vision issues), you may find the following page helpful:

I've done everything I can find in this forum - using Safe mode, changing McAfee settings, etc., etc., etc. I downloaded Thunderbird again and reinstalled it. Nothing helps. I can look at one email but if I try to delete it I get the "Not responding" message. If I try to go to the next message I get the "not responding" message. If I try to do anything while the screen is frozen, it goes grey and I get the "not responding" message. Short of changing my email viewer, is there anyway I can fix it.
I have this problem too and it is EXTREMELY frustrating!!!

My ipad screen is blank, ive tried to do the suggested help pages, of back up and restore, but the ipad has a passcode, which i cant type in a the screen is black. how do i overide?
thanks lizTry this - Reset 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

You may have to do this several times.
Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

HELP IF YOU CAN!!!
Thanks!
Message was edited by: Craig303I will try a custom Mail Install, Thanks! Should I delete my current Mail 2.1.3 App before the install?
You shouldn't have to do that. The new Mail install will be replacing everything in the old Mail install (well, not user preferences and configurations, but within Mail.app itself). After you reinstall, it would be of academic interest to see if it launches and behaves okay or not. Regardless of whether it does or doesn't, I would still follow up with reapplying the combo update, in event that there are any security patches or bug fixes for Mail inside said combo update. -
hello
The problem appeared two days ago is that I can't open my mail app. everything was fine and functional. Now I double click on the icon and it does not respond. it receives mail and I can see push notifications on the mail icon but when I try to open it is no use. OS Y 10.10.2 (14C1514)Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder—not just its contents—to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Restart the computer. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. Any custom stationery that you created may be lost. Ask for instructions if you want to preserve that data. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window.
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return. -
I just recently installed mountain lion and an update for SMC firmware to install power nap. Everything is working except for the menu bar, the icons native to the system do not respond, and features like the clock and battery meter freeze.
When I mouse over the icons, the rainbow appears as if it was processing something. The problem is eliminated when I restart my computer but it comes back after a while.
I guess I cant make a backup copy and restore the whole disk because the copy would be made with this error.
Can anyone help me? Anyone with the same issue?Update: I was able to test out the HDMI adapter as well and the same issue occured. I'm stumped. 10.8.1 maybe.

User did Not respond issues!! Please help, tried everything...
Hi,
I'm having some problems with the whole Audio/Video chat option on Ichat. I'm trying to connect to my girlfriend who also is running on Mac. When we try to connect, it says, "USER NAME, did not respond".
I've read almost every post on this thing, and seems that the solutions either don't work, or are specific to router/modem setups.
Now, just as a test to ensure it is from my end, I got my mom... who has an new Intel Imac to connect to my girlfriend, and their video sessions worked fine... so something is wrong with my end for sure.
I have 2 macs, an Imac and a Macbook pro, and they both experience the same problems, they are running on an Airport Extreme, and our service is through Bell Sympatico, which is a DSL service. I am using a Speed Stream 5200 modem.
Now both computers are running wirelessly, and I've tried different things like only having one computer connected... hardwiring the computer and even connecting one of the computers directly to the modem... all configurations didn't work. I've also turned off any firewall settings, and unchecked the Distribute IP address option in my airport.
Personally I believe there is an issue with my ISP or modem, and not sure where to go from here.
Please if you have any solutions get back to me through this, or through IChat directly my user name is: [email protected]
Thanks so much
KostaDear Stakis,
You are very welcome. As you might have noticed this discussionforum has been redisigned with profound and intelligent architectural troubleshooting design. I'm sure you will find an answer because all problems are directed towards narrowing down the possible problem and direct you forward to your best way to address your configuration in a way that has the biggest change of successfuley solving your problem. Some peers have been thinking in a very analitical way and almost build a verbal software support applet
Regarding your trouble. You ran your Ichat behind a router and used the book Pro to host the iChat traffic. I think you should use the iMac to have the router pointforward to as first terminal to regulate iChat traffic. You can use bonjour to have your bookpro chat with the outside world as a network computer using the imac as ichat traffic controller. I noticed you run games on your bookpro . The output you pasted in your reply indicates that your Probook will get in trouble since the code for Xvid is meant for your iMac and your probook needs the universal version.
QuickTime/XviD_Codec-r58 (ppc).component/Contents/MacOS/XviD.
IT should be: QuickTime/XviD_Codec-r58 (intel).component/Contents/MacOS/XviD. (not available yet but comming very soon)
This might cause trouble that destabilises your computer set up and indicates the iMac is the one that is first in line to iChat and your pro is not able.
Any way you might wonder, what is all this and why this hassle? Basicaly it is something that happened years ago when OSX 10.3.9 was updated to xcode and a simple routine was replaeced by a newer and importand for future addressing compatibility of account/password/id in the future. Apple changed its policy of two account/password/id per user into one. Remember the two different passwords long ago? Well a smart move but badly implented because a lot of developers had the old routine implemented in their personal lybraries and toolkits and did not take notice to replace the old string by the new one wich was paramount to x10.4 account/pas/id addressing. This problem first came to light in mail, there were very strange and inconsistent account and ip malfunctions which where unexplainable at the time. IT took an enormous effort to get a work arround this problem. Especially since it was not analised to the bit. Anyway, this is the cause of suddendeath of iChat inititiation a/v functionality and the did not respond issue. The information to make the connection is inconsistend to the hard/software of the wireless functionality. AIM is also to blame. They chose the easy way out and get the bill now.
There are some more (not so relevant) issues as time will solve them (quicktime codec h264).
So please read the new discussionboard trouble shooting pages and i am pretty sure you'll be iChatting (2 way only for now) withing no time thanks to the men who had the patience to allow Apple some time for a fix and kept peers iChatting all over the world with almost individual counseling.
