[QUOTE="The Cadet, post: 857593, member: 78034"] This happens from time to time, more often when I use AIM for mac... Basically, all of a sudden, the dock won't appear and gets stuck on whatever it was doing. Pressing F3 and cmd+tab do nothing, and to go to a different application I have to get the window out of the way; minimizing doesn't work. When I click on shut down after this bug shows up, it removes the dock, desktop, etc, leaving just the wallpaper... but then it gets stuck. If I press the power button, I get a prompt if I want to shut down. And it won't shut down until I press and hold the power button to force a turnoff. I have no clue what's causing this. Specs: 10.5.7 leopard, 2GHz intel core 2 duo, Macbook. Got it for christmas. [/QUOTE]
