On two occasions, since upgrading to 10.5.5, my Finder seems to have gotten into something that keeps it terribly, Beachball Spinning, busy ...
First time facts escape me .... but I think maybe it was Spotlight working ... Today, I moved / installed a Seagate 80GB hard drive from my PowerPC 8500 PCI ATA channel into an External Oxford FW case I used to have a PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-106D drive in (but moved that one to my QS since it's internal one was failing ... both the same model from 2003) ... When it came up on the Desktop, I did a Get Info .... then my Finder just went into Busy Mode ... I could open and play iTunes things, open Mail and look around, but couldn't close them ... each got stuck being partially closed ... and then there's the spinning beachball when I navigate to the Desktop ... Any hints on what happened? Couldn't open Activity Monitor to see what was going on ....
