Hi all,

I'm having a bit of problem with activity monitor, basically whenever it runs it shows NO PROCESS OR ANY ACTIVITY. I've tried running the repair permission but that doesn't fix the problem at all. I've also used ONXY but that doesnt help.

(My laptops details are PowerBook G4, Mac OSX)

Any ideas on getting this sorted will be appreciated.

Thanx
Everett

Click to expand...

Tahnks for the post...what I failed to mention is that it seems that the activity monitor stoppped working after I turned on fileVault. Now that I've turned off fileVault, activity monitor seems to be working again. Should this be the case that activity monitor doesn't show any running processes when fileVault is running?

Im going to turn on fileVault then delete the activityMonitor.plist and see what happens from there.

Thanks again
Everett
