Hello all,
I have problems with my machine running slowly and that blasted spinning wheel appearing everywhere.
iMac
Processor: 2.66 GHz Intel Core 1.5
memory : 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3
I have done:
Disc utility
Onyx repair
emptied some of the plist files
emptied Safari cache
rebooted numerous times
The wheel is appearing in Mail, on Safari, in iMovie and Aperture and Photoshop. I've assigned half the ram to photoshop.
My external Time Machine hard drive that I back everything up to is indicating that it needs repairing, but when I've disconnected it, the problem still continues. Even as I type this, the cursor is stalling.
If I search for something in google, the wheel will appear briefly.
Any help greatly appreciated.
The computer has always run fine, even with my memory hungry applications. It's just suddenly all gone slow.
Thanks! Kim
