After, about three years of bliss with my Mac, it finally has me thinking less than nice thoughts. I am hoping the gargantu-brains on the site can help me out. It's doing a couple of things:

1. Whenever I plug my iPhone in to sych, iTunes becomes unresponsive. I get the little spinning pinwheel of death, and the activity monitor shows itunes as not-responding.

2. It has been having trouble waking up from screen saver. I am using the OSX screen saver, no outside software. Last night, when I went to wake up the computer (pressed the space bar) the screen blanked, and there was the little rainbow piwheel. :Grimmace:

3. More of an annoyance, but it might be relevant. About a year ago, when I plugged in my iPod touch, it started opening a little window saying "no camera detected". did not do anything except be a cause for annoyance. it has done it with my iPhone as well. Would love to know how to make it stop doing this.

I am running OSX Leopard, but not SL, yet.

Thanks for the help!

Back to my old 2.2GHz C2D MB after selling my MBP and wondering what my next Mac will be :)
