[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1827728, member: 83420"] The method of booting into Safe Mode depends, to some extent on the Mac model. If you have a Mac with a chime, reboot the Mac and immediately after you hear the chime, press and hold down the Shift key until the Apple logo appears. It will take longer to boot into Safe Mode. If you have a silent Mac, then things are trickier. Reboot and very carefully watch the computer screen. When it goes from black to dark grey, press and hold the Shift key as above. If, however, you have a wired keyboard or if you attach your magic, wireless keyboard to the Mac via USB - this makes the wireless keyboard become wired - then you can hold down the Shift key right from the beginning of the reboot. To get out of Safe Mode, simply reboot in the normal way. Ian [/QUOTE]
