Phil,


These things certainly can be very annoying....while I can't offer a solution, perhaps I can offer a work around.....


disable your clock by going to System Preferences and unchecking Show Date and time when you are in the Clock Menu.

Then download and install either iClock or wClock.....both offer some nice features...calendars, etc.....

It might be interesting to see if these third party offerings have the same problems......

If nothing else is acting up, you might just have to live with this ......it could be much worse......

Regards

Bob

Dear Listers,

I posted some months ago about the clock in OS X Panther (then 10.3.1) being
faulty on my iMac 17" 1GHz (The clock just stops, and I get the spinning
pizza of death when I hover the mouse over the clock). I received countless
pieces of advice but none worked, resulting in me reinstalling.

This past week it developed the problem again, and as I wanted to partition
my drive anyway I decided to completely erase and reinstall OS X. I have
since updated to 10.3.5 and the clock problem is BACK! JUST 2 HOURS AFTER
REINSTALLATION!!


I just don't know what to do... No matter which options are enabled in the
clock settings panel it still does this. I tried trashing prefs again and it
didn't work!

Help!

Phil
