[QUOTE="staceyasdfghjkl, post: 1429113, member: 264105"] So, I've downloaded OS X ML from the app store and when it was done, I started the installing process. After the pre-installing part which took about three minutes or so, the mac restarted and it's been 3 hours now and the screen is still white with a little rainbow-coloured thingy going in circle. I feel like this shouldn't take so long and I don't know what to do. And I'm not a computer genius, so I'm kind of desperate here. Is this normal? Should I wait or is there something I should do? Please help a stupid 18 years old girl that can't even upgrade her Mac properly. Please? (Yes, I met all the before-downloading-requirements. Appropriate MacBook and I had OS X Lion.) [/QUOTE]
