[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1871228, member: 396914"] The blue spinning ball indicates the system is waiting for an internet download to finish. What is probably going on is that you have set your system to store documents in iCloud. When you try to open that document or folder, since it's NOT on your Mac, it has to go to iCloud to get it downloaded for you to use. The blue spinner also can show up if you have a network storage device and the transfer is slow over the local area network to get the document to your Mac. There are ways to get your documents back on your Mac, if you wish to do so. Let us know and we can work through the process with you. [/QUOTE]
