Hi. I "updated" the software on both my iMac and my PowerBook G4 last week.
Now every 30 seconds or so, the PowerBook switches to the Finder.
But that's not the worst of it.
The iMac was okay for a day or so after the software (and firmware) update --not upgrade-- but then it sort of froze. I restarted it several times and even switched users from the startup screen. Luckily, it froze with Internet Sharing on, so I am getting online with my laptop, which still works despite it's annoying Finder-blip.
Here is what is weird/going on with my iMac. I cannot open any files or folders on the desktop, or use the dock or the toolbar. I would blame it on the mouse except the Hot Corners still work (screensaver, lol.) I put it to sleep with the keyboard.
Perhaps I should mention that these are both 2006 models, and this is the first time I've had trouble with them. No apple stores closer than 7 hours away... Thank you anybody who can help.
