[QUOTE="WWJBD, post: 941119, member: 131055"] The reason I didn't jump at the whole booting from my latest TM backup solution right off the bat is is because: [B]A.)[/B] I've never done it before, and... [B]B.)[/B] When I finally decided I had no options left and did it, it said it was going to take 5 days. I went and bought some heavy duty ethernet cables, which finally cut that time down to a measly SIX hours, but now guess what, after all that time... [B]I'm still having the exact same problem anyway.[/B] And this backup is from before I even installed 10.6.2. To reiterate, I'm able to boot in Safe Mode, and it says I'm running 10.6.1, but still, when I try to boot in normal mode, I get stuck on the same loading screen. I am about to try the Mac OS X v10.6.2 Update (Combo) solution several of you suggested and see what happens. But I must admit, this is getting really frustrating. Especially since NO ONE at AppleCare was even close to as helpful as all of you have been. Any more ideas? Somebody, please. Thanks. Sincerely, Loathing on Long Island. [/QUOTE]
