Spinning Circle interrupts all activities for 2 to 5 seconds

Fixed preferences.  No nchange  OS X 10.7.4 (11E53), MBP early 2008, 2.4 MHz Intel Core Duo, 4GB 667, 500G HD, 163G free.  FFOX 10.0.1, Safari 5.1.7,SOPHOS 7.3.12C
Getting worse.
THanks,

SOPHOS removed.  Seems better.  Don't see the circle while typing this.  BTW, also have the same problem on my 2006 iMac.  Plenty of room on the HD.  So I'll try it there,  Back later.

  • Best practice for getting all Activities for a Contact

    Hello,
    I am new to the Eloqua API and am wondering what is the best practice for downloading a list of all activities for a given contact.
    Thanks

    Hi Mike,
    For activities in general, Bulk 2.0 Activity Exports will be the best way to go. Docs are here: http://docs.oracle.com/cloud/latest/marketingcs_gs/OMCBB/index.html
    But it can be a complex process to wrap your head around if you're new to the Eloqua API. So if you're in a pinch and don't care about the association of those activities to campaigns, and only need to pull activities for a few contacts, you can resort to using REST API calls.
    The activity calls are visible (from Firebug or Chrome console) if you open any contact record and navigate to the "Activity Log" tab. If you have it set to all activities, it will fire off a dozen or more calls or you can choose an individual one from the picklist to inspect that call in more detail.
    Best regards,
    Bojan

  • HT201412 my new ipod touch 5 will not turn on!!! im mad about this can someone helpp me or tell me what to do i tried alot of stuff my ipod just has the spinning circle it will turn on but 5 seconds later it stops and starts spinning again.

    So today I try to reset my Ipod. But it doesnt work!!! It will turn on for about 5 seconds then shut down and the spinning circle will appear. I tried resetting, but it didnt work. someone please help me before I break this thing!!!!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Select song, hit play button for music and only get spinning circle

    Apple TV does not respond to play music.  All my music shows on the screen, but when I hit button to play all I get is the spinning circle. Gave it several minutes to see if it just needed time to load but nothing.  Internet connection must be ok because I can play a Netflix selection.

    Hello there Shazack,
    It sounds like you are trying to play your iTunes purchases on your Apple TV but it never plays. I would start by restarting your device in this manner:
    Apple TV: How to restart your Apple TV
    Restart your Apple TV by selecting Settings > General > Restart.
    If that does not fix the issue, I would sign out of your Apple ID in Settings on your device, then restart one more time and sign back in.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • Ipod 16g 2nd gen. had the waiting circle running for ages. the unit got hot. i reset it and the circumstances did not change.  i also did a dfu mode.  which stopped the spinning circle, but now the ipod is stuck on the apple. slide to unlock is stuck now.

    ipod 16g, 2nd gen had the spinning circle running for hours. the unit also go very hot.
    i performed a reset twice as well as a brand new reset to factory settings.  I still got the spinning circle.
    i also did a DFU.  brought me to the apple sign, followed by a spinning circle and a 'slide to unlock' page that will not slide.
    please advise.

    Likely a batter problem since high temperatures destroy a battery.  I wold make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store to see what they say.  It is free except for your time.

  • Running the latest OS Mavericks.  8 gigs of RAM.  150 gigs free space on computer.  Problem: since upgrading to Maverick almost all applications are slow to open, and frequently many 'spinning ball' interruptions.  Repaired disk permissions - no help.

    I'm running the latest OS 10.9.1 Mavericks (late 2009 iMac).  8 gigs of RAM.  150 gigs free space on computer.  Since upgrading to Mavericks, apps are slow to open, with frequent "spinning ball" interruptions.  Repaired Disk Permissions - no help.  Repaired disk - no problems indicated.  Did notice in going to Utilities/Console that there are 4000 messages over a 3 day period.  Any suggesstions how to correct this sudden slow down, other than psychiatric help?

    Yes.  Many messages show up when I try to use Office for Mac 08.  Here's a sample (and one that repeats over and over again):

    Also getting many msgs when I use Chrome.

  • Firefox expects more (spinning circle shown) after AJAX post to CGI complete. How do I tell Firefox thats all its getting?

    After POSTing a simple form to an nph CGI using AJAX, Firefox appears to expect more and shows the spinning circle after the request is complete and the returned content is displayed in the browser window.
    The javascript works OK with Internet Explorer.
    The CGI returns Content-Length in the HTTP header.
    submitForm.xml.onreadystatechange=function()
    if(submitForm.xml.readyState==4)
    // Everything ok here
    How do I tell Firefox thats all its getting and to replace the spinning circle with the website favicon?

  • I updated my MacBook Air and now it will not restart. It just sits on apple with spinning circle. Any suggetions on how to reboot and get to start window?

    It was in process of updating and when the mac restarted it just sits there with spinning circle. I have waited for hours to no avail. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to resolve?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Holding down the power button for more than 10 Seconds will force quit your Mac. This might leave it in a state where it will not restart at all.
    I would wait at least a minute before restarting after forced shutdown.
    The update may restart or resume.
    The reason your update failed may be a bad or failing SSD.

  • Spinning circle * Thunderbird is not responding when I try to write or access emails. I had attempted to delete a bunch of old txt messages in seldom used Gmail

    I saw I had almost 30,000 txt messages on a Gmail account that I had created a gmail account for on Thunderbird. I didn't realize that they were going here from Gmail. I highlighted all of them and attempted to delete them. The spinning circle finally went away and all of them were gone. But when I tried to do anything else on Thunderbird with my regular email accounts (Comcast & Hotmail), I would get a spinning circle and Thunderbird is not responding. I had to use Ctrl Alt Del and then reopen. I tried compacting but this morning when I tried to write an email from one of my Comcast emails in Thunderbird, again I got the spinning circle and Thunderbird is not responding. In order to do anything, I have to close the program by hitting Crrl Alt Del and try again.
    My Trash Local folders says 8300.
    This morning, when I tried accessing Thunderbird at the bottom of the taskbar it said, "downloading....of 17,000 to All Mail. Had no clue what that meant. I let it continue until all were and thought my issue would be resolved. But no. :(
    Something obviously got corrupted in the program. What do I need to do to fix this?
    Thank you.

  • My Macbook is stuck at the loading screen (the apple with the spinning circle beneath it). I went to Best Buy, they told me to call Apple Help and ask them to restore my unit. But Apple help wont help me without charging me. Help please !!

    My Macbook Pro is stuck at the loading screen (the apple with the spinning circle underneath). I went to Best Buy to get help, and they told me to call Apple Help and ask them to 'restore my unit', which he said is a matter of only about 4 mouse clicks. If it was so easy, I didn't understand why he couldn't do it for me. But he said that even though I have a 3 year warranty and protection plan with them, they were not responsible for this type of problem. Whatever.
    Anyway, so I called Apple Help, and even though he was familiar with my problem, it's been more than 90 days since I purchased the laptop, therefore I'd have to set up a service agreement to get his assistance, meaning I'd have to PAY him. So now i'm stuck, and I'm just hoping somebody knows what to do to help me
    I don't have any disc that I apparently need, and I don't remember ever getting one. However, if there is some other way to fix this issue, please let me know. Thanks for your time and assistance

  • Crashed drive with Grey Apple Screen and Spinning Circle!!

    I need some help!!
    My G5 desktop computer had Font error, and then it crashed. I pressed the power button to restart and it won’t booth up! All I get it the Grey Apple Screen and Spinning Circle with loud fan noise.
    I’ve tried using the install CD to booth up to use the Disk Utility, but it won’t let me select the primary Seagate drive (I do see the drive name), therefore I can’t repair or do anything.
    When I tried to re-install the OSX, the system won’t even see the primary drive to reinstall.
    Is this drive dead? (I never had clicking noise before) or is the Drive corrupted? How do I fix this problem?
    Can someone please help me?
    Thank you

    I’m not sure which button I pressed, but I was able to see my Hard Drive with OSX and OSX Disk, but when I clicked on the Hard Drive it just does the gray screen
    So, I used the OSX install Disk to boot up to run the Disk Utility.
    I can see the drive name, but when I click on the drive nothing happens. Verify and Repair buttons are grayed out.
    I’ve tried the Safe mode but it won’t start up.
    I never had Applejack installed on the hard Drive so I can’t test it that way either.
    How can I save this hard drive?
    Is there another way to repair this?
    Thank you all for your help!

  • Imac gets stuck on spinning circle when shutting down

    I have had my mac for only 1 year and still getting use to the troubleshooting. My Imac keeps getting stucking on spinning circle when I shut down or reboot. I have unplugged all my external hard drives and printer. Nothing seemed to work. Can someone point me in the right direction.
    Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 (11E53)
    4gb Ram
    Processor  2.5 GHz Intel Core i5

    You might want to make sure that there are no open applications when you shut down, one of them may be hanging your Mac trying to shut down. Another thing to look for is to make sure that there are no print jobs that are not complete. Open the print and scan preference pane, double click your printer and see if any things hanging there.
