Wake issues with 24" iMac

I am having the issue with my iMac lab. Units will go to sleep and when a student tries to use the unit there is no response from keyboard but mouse will respond. They need to be restarted to resolve the issue but should it go to sleep again we start the process all over. I have 17 in this lab and have been sending them in for repair two at a time. They replaced the DC/SATA cable on the first two and it resolved nothing. Resetting PRAM and PMU also did not correct the issue.
Any ideas? Hardware? Software?

I have a computer lab with 25 with the same problem. I found this happened after they keyboard update. Has anyone really solved this problem with the keyboards not responding after the computers go to sleep? We have to restart several every day, every hour. What is apple doing with this?

Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried.
1. If you've recently plugged anything into the audio-out (headphone) port, plug and unplug it a couple of times.
2. From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences ▹ Sound ▹ Output
Check the settings. The internal speakers should be selected as the output device, the Mute box should not be checked, and the volume slider should be at least halfway to the right.
3. Look inside the headphone port. If a red light is coming from the port, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a headphone mini-stereo jack of the proper size.Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
4. Boot in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime. It will take much longer than usual. You don't have to log in; just reboot as usual (without holding any keys) when the login screen appears. (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.)
5. Reset the NVRAM.
6. Reset the SMC.
7. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data as a precaution. You won't need your backup unless something goes wrong.
8. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.
Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to bare metal from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
*An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

IMac isn't loading a specific website (can't connect to that server), regardless of browser, though the same website will load on other computers on same network. Is it an issue with the iMac's settings?

Our iMac isn't loading a specific website (we get a message saying it can't connect to that specific server), regardless of browser (I've tried it in Chrome, Safari, and Firefox). However, the same website, which is for a major medical provider, loads without any issue on our other computers on the same wireless network. Is it an issue with the iMac's settings? All other websites seem to be loading without issue on the iMac.

... Is it an issue with the iMac's settings?
Possibly. Make sure you are not using a proxy server. Look in Safari Preferences > Advanced > Proxies > "Change Settings..." This will take you to the applicable Network Preferences. Make sure that nothing is selected in the "select a protocol to configure" list. It should look like this:
Still not working?
Locate your Terminal app. It is in your Utilities folder. Open Terminal.
In Terminal, copy (triple-click) and paste the following line:
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item'
This will produce a list of all your account login items.
While you are in Terminal, copy (triple-click) and paste the following line:
kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}'
This will produce a list of all non-Apple kernel extensions. There will be few, if any.
Post the results of the above.

Sleep Issues with g5 Imac

I have a g5 iMac running OsX Panther. 1.6 Ghz with 256 Ram.
Anyways, the computer randomly and frequently goes to sleep. The hot corners are not set for that, infact in the settings i've set it to never go to sleep. Some days, like in the last hour, the computer will go to sleep, i wake it up, and within a minute, it goes back to sleep. Some days it wont go to sleep at all. The problem seems to be truely random. The only programs running are Entourage, Safari and Adium, sometimes Itunes and Filemaker.
Has anyone heard of a problem like this before? Any tips or trouble shooting ideas?
Thanks.

First read Apple doc.#25801 on sleep settings.
A number of sleep-related issues can appear after incremental Mac OSX updates, including the inability to properly go to sleep, problems waking from sleep, and having your display go to sleep without your Mac going to sleep. The most common culprit is Bluetooth. Try these tips to fix your sleep problems.
WAKE UP
In System Preferences>Bluetooth, uncheck Allow Bluetooth Devices To Wake This Computer. If you are using a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard, you'll have to wake your Mac by pressing the power button.
FILE CORRUPTION
Your Bluetooth preference file may be corrupt-you'll need to delete it. Turn Bluetooth off, then go to the /Users/user name/Library/Preferences folder. Look for a file called com.apple.Bluetooth.plist and trash it.The OS will create a new preference file when you enable Bluetooth again.
ENERGY SAVER
If you have issues with a Mac or display that goes to sleep at inappropriate times, you may have a problem with Energy Saver. Delete the following .plist files and restart:
-/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.PowerManagement.plist
-/Users/username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist--(username is your name or System Administrators name).
-/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.AutoWake.plist
A restart is very important after deleting these plists. After a reboot your Mac will then generate new ones.
Some, in these forums, have had luck fixing sleep issues downloading the Combo update from this site (yours may be corrupt), not Software Update, disconnect all firewire + USB devices except keyboard + mouse, Repair Permissions, re-install update, Repair Permissions again + try.
Yours could be the 10.3.9 Combo update (you did'nt say what version you are using). Others reading, download the combo update that applies to you!
Cheers!

Boot Rom/BIOS emulation issue with latest iMacs?

Hi,
Firstly thanks for viewing.
We've just bought 34 new iMac's and previously had (and still have) 60 odd Aluminum iMac's dual booting OS X/Windows which have no problems.
The new iMacs though seem to be having huge issues with booting Window's the first 2 attempts wether using Apple's Startup Manager or rEFIt.
The first attempt the machine will just hang after at a grey screen after volume selection and the second attempt you will receive a "Disk Read Error" and the third attempt the machine will boot normally and this behavior is happening on all of the brand new 34 iMac's.
rEFIt produces the following error:
Error: Not found return from legacy loader;
Error: not found from locatedevicepath;
Error: not found from locatedevicepath;
Error: load error while (re)opening our installation volume;
Which leads me to believe the issue lies with Apple's Boot Rom and the hand over between EFI and BIOS emulation.
I have tried multiple installs of OS X Snow Leopard with 32 bit XP, 32 bit Vista and & 32 bit Windows 7 as well as using Bootcamp 3.1 which really only add's driver support for Windows 7 no Boot Rom updates.
If anyone is having similar issue's I'd love to hear and any work arounds you may have.
Thanks for taking the time to read my post.

Hi Sea Dog,
Thanks for your reply . But I cannot find anything related to my problem in the link you attached (or it’s “sublinks”). One sublink is about an annoying usb3 bug with some problem related to the S3 sleep state. (Maybe this is the one you are referring to?) But I do not have this problem, I can wake my PC from the S3 sleep state via my connected USB devices. The problem I have is that I also start my PC after a shutdown (=S5 state I assume) via my connected USB devices, which I do not want to happen since too easy to start the PC accidently for example by just moving the mouse a little bit. As I write above, I think this is caused by MSI:s choice to configure their BIOS regarding “Resume from S3/S4/S5 by USB Device”. If I am right about the cause to my problem, I guess MSI should have chosen this resume option without the "…S4/S5…" or at least without the "S5" (By the way, I seem to have version C2 of the Z87 chipset if I understand a note correct on the MB box.)
Again, am I correct about my idea to the cause of this problem?? Can someone please advise how to solve it if possible??

Graphic Issues with Leopard - iMac 24" White GeForce 7300 GT

Upon installing Leopard, I've noticed several graphics issues and general lag and delayed response with the interface. I'm running a 24" iMac 2.16ghz White early 2007, 3gb of RAM, with the GeForce 7300GT card. I have Time Machine disabled, and Spotlight has fully indexed.
When installing Leopard, I did an "Erase and Install" and have manually installed my Applications after the Leopard install. I'm using only a few applications that are all "Leopard ready" and have a relatively clean system at this point. I have also cleaned the PRAM, per the recommendations in some of the threads ive read, which didn't seem to correct the issue in this case.
It seems that any time I run any type of video or graphical application, such as Photo Booth, World of Warcraft, iChat, etc, I get a large amount of lag and slow response with the interface. Windows respond very slowly, and the applications freeze for 15-20 seconds. Even when not engaging any applications, opening folders in the finder as well as the dock appear to stall and respond very slowly.
Aside from these issues, Leopard has performed very well and I have had no other issues. Quicklook and coverflow all seem to respond very quickly and smoothly. My guess is that it may be driver related as it seems to be centered around items that are engaging the video card, though it is strange how some graphical effects seem to work smoothly while others are rather choppy. I have been watching the Activity Monitor and there don't appear to be any processes that are sucking up CPU, and nothing obvious that may be reducing performance.
I'm just curious if anyone else has noticed anything similar to this on similar hardware, or possibly may know what the culprit could be. My best guess, again, is that it could be the drivers or firmware with this specific hardware that I'm using.
Thanks for your time

I've had the same graphics issues with my white iMac 24 (serial no starts W8638), but with the GeForce 7600 card. AppleCare got me to do all the usual stuff (reset PRAM, clean Leopard install etc) but problems continued. The usual pattern is that after a while horizontal lines appear (usually in Safari) and things deteriorate form then on until there is so much pixellation that I have to turn off and back on.
Yesterday I ran for several hours using SMCFanControl to set the fans to max and had no problems, so my suspicion is that the additional graphics requirements of Leopard are over-heating the graphics card or logic board.
The Apple engineer took the machine away today and said they'll probably replace the logic board and graphics card (I think they can't change one without the other in the iMac?).
Will be a few days but I'll report back on what repairs they make and whether they solve the problem. My fear is that any changes they make will have no effect if its a design problem and the card is just not up to the job without over-heating. Though it could be the card just needs a good clean
Has anyone else tried increasing fan speed?

Ical syncing issues with iphone/imac after lion OS update.

Hi All,
I upgraded to lion and now have two issues with syncing my iphone and ipad to my imac.
First issue is that calander entries created on the iphone/ipad do not appear in the imac calander after syncing.
Second issue is that if I change an calander entry on my imac, the old entry and the new entry will show up on my iphone. For example. I created an event and accidently clicked out of it before changing the name. I then reopened that entry and changed the name and date. In my imac ical calender I only had one entry at the final date with the correct name. When I synced my iphone and ipad however two events showed up on the iphone and ipad. The original "new event", and the event with the correct name and date.
The same thing happened when I had the same event occuring for 5 days, I manual copied the one event five times on the one day and then dragged them to the correct days in ical on my imac. When I synced my iphone I had both the 5 entries on the one day, as well as the entries on the days I had dragged them to.
In summary, now when I look at my calander in ical on my imac it looks great, but on my iphone it has all these extra entries. It is as though when it syncs it shows me all of my previous entries and changes, instead of the actual current calander.
Any thoughts how I can get the imac and iphone icals to look the same?
and in case you were wondering, I dont use Icloud. I did set it up and turned it off after the duplicate entry problem that everyone has mentioned. I dont have that duplicate entry issue anymore.
Thanks
Adrian

From what your write, it is a little hard to tell, what exactly your problem is, though you may want to try the following, which helped me at time:
step one:
export all of your calendars one by one, including the one with entries giving you problems
step two:
erase all of your calendars and create a dummy character, check if syncing works with that one.
reimport the previously exported calendars one by one, redoing the syncing routines.
In the instances I had problems, I found that exporting and reimporting a calendar file usually did away with the problem
Also, at least on my machines, turning on the birthday link to address book, created some problems, so you might want to try without that feature too.
If you got everything working on one machine, another strategy can be to reinitiate syncing from that one, i.e. erase and reinstall the syncing process on the others. Just make sure you have an up to date back up of your entries.

Complicated Issues With Intel iMac

So here we go:
Recently, after updating my QuickTime I restarted my iMac to a continuous "setup assistant" loop which from further research I came to find out that I wasn't the only one with this issue. So my solution to that was to go to the Apple Store and get an erase and install because I couldn't boot from my disk when the computer would start up.
Currently, my computer is hit or miss on startup. Sometimes it goes into the system like butter and times like today my computer LITERALLY takes 10-15 minutes to load fully. Upon load the computer functions at a fine speed but I don't understand why it would take this long to load the system. I do have an external HDD to use with Time Machine and often thought that that would be the problem on startup (getting confused about the startup disk or something) so I typically unplug it before startup and it still takes 10-15 minutes to reach my desktop. In addition, after the erase and install it never goes to the loading Leopard screen with the blue bar that goes around the screen right before you get to your desktop image.
Several things about this made me feel like resetting the PRAM was a good idea, however, whenever I restart the computer hold down OptionCTRL+PR it's like my computer ignores that. I do it right when the computer turns on and before the gray screen like the document says and the computer just skips it altogether and goes to the apple with the loading wheel. I have no clue what's wrong with my computer and wish it would function like the day before I updated QuickTime!
Any help?

Use the Command key, not the Control key to reset PRAM (Cmd-Opt-P-R).
That said, it appears you have no data on the new iMac to save, so why not proceed with a clean installation? Turn off your iMac, take the gray Installation DVD that came with your iMac and insert it in the DVD slot on the right side of your display case. Hold down the C key while pressing the power button, and let it startup from the DVD. Select English as your language, then select the Erase and Install option, and let the default configuration setup proceed. After about 45 minutes (unless you elected to let it install all the available foreign languages (Options button during setup phase)), it will finish and reboot your Mac.
After restart, answer the questions so it can setup your user account and connect you to the Internet for registration and software updates. You may want to proceed with the Install Bundled Software package on the Installation DVD at this point to get the iLife '08 suite installed, as well.
It would probably be wise to use Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities) to erase your Time Machine external FireWire HD so it can start with a clean drive, as well. You don't want to save the damaged stuff that's surely on that drive if you used it for Time Machine previously. Then, go into System Preferences/Time Machine and select the erased FireWire drive to use it.

SERIOUS lag issues with Intel iMac

Hello everyone,
I'm pretty frustrated right now. I've been having this serious lag issue with my new iMac for the past few days. I think it may have started after I ran the last security update.
What happens:
When switching between apps, the system will hang for 1-3 seconds between doing anything. This includes typing, mouse requests, etc. It's VERY frustrating. I have activity monitor open currently, and I am seeing both Safari and SystemUIServer hogging up the CPU resources like CRAZY. I've even seen Safari recently give a CPU usage of 120%, right before I loaded this webpage. tis isn't just centralized to Safari too.... I have the following apps running:
Adium 0.89.1
FoireFox 1.5.0.8
Safari
Activity Monitor
My Memory stats currently are:
175MB Wired
708MB Active
618MB Inactive
1.47GB Used
There should be no reason I'm getting these lags with just two web browsers and a chat client open.
Has anyone else expierenced the lags?? Any suggestions? I'm almost ready to reinstall OS X and not run the last security update. Thanks

Hello Matthew
Are you running any maintenance scripts on a regular basis?
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/maintscripts.html
I would manually run this script from The X Lab, and my load times would improve greatly. The problem was, I would forget to run them untill I noticed web pages loading slow or iTunes and iPhoto taking for ever. It wasn't untill someone here in discussions suggested Anacron that I saw the light. WOW what a difference Anacron has been making in my overall system speed. My iMac has not been shutdown for 11days 5hrs 34mins (sleep or use only) and opening new App's, switching App's and web pages load as fast or faster than after a fresh start up. If your system is operating properly and you are having only what seems to be a slow or sluggish issue Anacron will make a difference.

Sleep/wake Issues With Late 2013 Macbook Pro Retina 13"

Dear Apple Community,
I have been recently having issues with the sleep/wake cycle of my laptop. Every time my laptop goes to sleep and I try to wake it up it gets stuck on a blank screen for 3 mins before returning to normal functionality. I have tried deleting the sleep image files and the laptop functions fine for a day and then back to the same issues. I have 3 sleep image files, 2 of them are 1.07gb each and the other one is 64mg. I have deleted them many times and they just come back with the same issues. Any help here would be appreciated. Thank You

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. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
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.
4. 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.
5. 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.
6. 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.

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. 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.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. 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.
10. 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 the results. No harm will be done.
11. 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.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: 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.

Is anyone having issues with 27inch iMac late 2012 locking up when processing photos?

Purchased new IMac 27 in July 2013 and 15 Macbook Air in November. I upgraded all my software at the time of the Air purchase. This is my 3rd Mac book and second IMac. Have all the same software on each. The IMac keeps locking up especially when I am processing in Aperture. It is worse when trying to move between Aperture and Elements or Big Aperture. I have not had an issue with Air even when useing same file on same soruce.
I took the IMac to shop for color bleed in moniter and then kept it a week, tested it, replaced the monitor, but said system is fine.
Any one else having an issue. is it my PC or an issue with the software/Maverick.

Got a late 2013 iMac 27". No problem at all. Try going to Disk Utility (in applications>utilities) and repair permissions. And then borrow a copy of Disk Warrior and clean optimize your hard drive.
Within Aperture yourself, do you know how to restore/repair your library? Hold down the apple & option keys and simultaneously start Aperture. You will be prompted on screen. That usually fixes hangups. I do it monthly.

Re: Graphic Issues with Leopard - iMac 24" White GeForce 7300 GT

I noticed the same issue. It's especially noticeable in Photo Booth. The video and sound don't sync up.

I've had the same graphics issues with my white iMac 24 (serial no starts W8638), but with the GeForce 7600 card. AppleCare got me to do all the usual stuff (reset PRAM, clean Leopard install etc) but problems continued. The usual pattern is that after a while horizontal lines appear (usually in Safari) and things deteriorate form then on until there is so much pixellation that I have to turn off and back on.
Yesterday I ran for several hours using SMCFanControl to set the fans to max and had no problems, so my suspicion is that the additional graphics requirements of Leopard are over-heating the graphics card or logic board.
The Apple engineer took the machine away today and said they'll probably replace the logic board and graphics card (I think they can't change one without the other in the iMac?).
Will be a few days but I'll report back on what repairs they make and whether they solve the problem. My fear is that any changes they make will have no effect if its a design problem and the card is just not up to the job without over-heating. Though it could be the card just needs a good clean
Has anyone else tried increasing fan speed?

Graphic issue with my Imac 27"

Hi
I have an issue with my graphic on my Imac 27", which has going on for 1 month now. If i start up the computer normally there will be a failure in the graphic after the Apple icon has disapperead, which means that I´m not able to see anything except some vertically/horizontally lines on the screen.
BUT if I press down "Shift" while starting the computer and thereby start up in safe mode, then the graphic is perfect (unless a small rectangle which follows the mouse cursor) and I can use the computer almost normal. The sound is disabled, but perhaps that is part of running safe mode.
Therefore it seems more like a software error than hardware error, since graphic is normal in safe mode. Recently (3 days ago) I got an information of free update to Yosemite and I thought that it would solve my problem if it was a software issue, but unfortunately the problem was exactly the same after the update, that I can only start the computer in safe mode.
My Imac is from 2009 and is model A1312 with a ATI Radeon HD 4670 graphic card.
Does anyone know this issue or can support me what to do?
Thanks in advance - Ulrick, Denmark

Hi Lomborg,
If you are having an issue with the display of your iMac, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Graphical issues with 2011 iMac and Lion

I have a 2011 27" iMac (core i7 and AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2GB) with 2 external displays, most of the graphical issues are present in the external displays but the menu bar, dock and volume popup all appeared distorted on the main display.
On the external display most apps look like this http://i.imgur.com/FQ0AJ.png
there are a few exceptions like steam, safari and itunes, these apps don't show any distortion apart from when being switched the the other displays though, almost all other apps apear disdorted (as shown in the image) on the external displays.
I never had these issues with Snow Leopard but as far as I can tell its some kind of graphics driver problem, don't know how this wasn't spotted in the beta..
More images:

I also have a 27 in iMac Core i7 3.4 with the 2GB Graphics Card.
I called apple care and informed them + I recorded a video of it happening with ScreenFlow and sent it to apple. Please call apple care and inform them so they escalate this issue.
When I called them they sent me a file to Capture the Data of my computer to see what happened and what caused it.
By the way this computer should be able to connect with 6 screens simultaneously.
Please if you are experiencing this issue write here to inform apple about and call apple care or see the genius bar.
Thanks

Major issues with my iMac- crashes and errors

In the past 2 weeks I have had multiple issues with my computer. 3 times the OS has crashed- twice I had to pull the plug to get it to do anything. I can't open Photoshop. I can't print. Adobe Bridge keeps crashing. I have to turn Airport off/on about once an hour because the internet stops working. This is my first Mac and I've had it about a year and a half, so I don't know a lot about the system. Most of my work is stored on an external hard drive and I have 292.32 GB available. I am looking for suggestions to get running normally agian because I really can't lose several days of working by taking this to an Apple store (45 minutes away). Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give.

It's good to hear that repairing permissions helped resolve the issue. Your Mac logs a lot of data about how the system is performing. Of particular interest is the CrashReporter logs that can be viewed by launching the 'console' application which can be found in the applications/utilities folder. In the left column you can open up the ~/Library/Logs where you will see then see the CrashReporter log. Open it up and you will probably find a number of crash reporter entries which may yield clues. It may be necessary to provide more details from the logs and let some of the expert users provide suggestions. You may find that some of your software is not up to date.
This CNET article provides an overview of the Crash Reporter:
