[QUOTE="chscag, post: 943021, member: 46727"] I'm afraid it's going to take a few more emails between you and her to try to figure out what's causing the problems she's having. Anyway, here are some thoughts: Ask her how much disk space is left on her internal hard drive. Also ask if she has run any system maintenance utilities lately such as "OnyX". "OnyX" is a utility which can clean up disk caches, repair file permissions, and many other tasks that can help a Mac to run smooth and fast. It's also a free utility. Her machine is an older PowerPC machine but a very good one. She's also running a rather old operating system - OS X Panther. She could if desired update her OS X to Leopard. (OS X 10.5.X) Also, it might be best if she could find someone nearby to help her out rather than try to do things via email. Or have her post direct to these forums. Regards. [/QUOTE]
