[QUOTE="Ancestor, post: 1778133, member: 397020"] Last night I put my iMac 27 (March 2011) to sleep as usual. This morning I found the computer on with a white screen and not responding. Shutting down and re-starting brought up a striped bluish-white screen and again it would not boot. I am still running OSX 10.6.8 as vital applications won't run on later OSX. Lately, the computer has been a bit slow to respond, such as calling up the Documents folder to save a file, but otherwise I have had no problems. I have run Time Machine, and keep a bootable backup on an external Seagate drive, last backup the usual weekly, last Saturday. What can I do? The iMac has all my photos in iPhoto and Lightroom and all our financial affairs. Is it possibly the screen failure, or the graphics card responsible? Fortunately I have this new Air bought for a writing project, so I can still communicate. [/QUOTE]
