Very funny. Among other problems that just popped up since yesterday morning when all was going well; in order:
While the CD ejected just fine, the ikon stayed on the screen. Screen shots no longer “took”- shutter noise fine but no Screen Shot (worked fine yesterday morning Having problems with Spaces - couldn’t get two files I needed to see side by side on the same “Space” or screen - I don’t like Spaces. I can work on a crowded desktop - you should see my real desktop.Just barely room for me to get to the iMac. Today: Couldn't find a pdf I just made (exported a Pages file I just made wanted to find out if small enough to send in an email) Used Spotlight to find it - no problem -it said the file was where it was supposed to be; however I couldn’t see any signs of it. (Hard to loose a pdf in a folder with just four files in it.) Found a number of folders EMPTY there I knew there should be files. Photos was taking forever to import 4 jogs (~4MB each) FOREVER Couldn’t quit Photos because it was in the middle of an import. I didn’t care but Photos did. Tried Force quitting Photos. Didn’t really work. OK something’s wrong. Must reboot. First I wanted to eject my LaCie external HD (my 2nd backup) It won’t eject. Discovered the LaCie and the CD weren’t in any directory. . OK, I'll Shut Down. Well maybe I will but the iMac wouldn’t. Called Apple Without much trouble, got all back working. Love Apple, esp. Apple Service. Next message will be about Photos. After some food and maybe a drink.
