Mac Help Please!!!

Issues with Mac:

When using programs from Illustrator 4.0 to QuarkXpress 7.5 etc. I get a beachball which when you try a force quit it will not reboot unless you do a hard reboot on the machine.

Files on my server that show that they are not there even with a search. Than a clean restart clear caches etc. They reappear.

Folders taking a long time to show up.

I continue to have to restart my machine which is wasting production time. Any help would be great.

So I am guessing no one has this problem!?

The sticky notes that are posted on this site have all been tried way before I posted this. Which is only a temporary fix. The tech blames these issues on the mac Finder. Which I was trying to prove him wrong.

I'm guessing that most people skipped over your thread because the title gives no hint as to the content.
