Now back to reading the weird and wonderful suggested solutions offered via the
Mac forums! By the way, I don’t use FileVault.

Hi Ronni
Essentially no improvement - still hanging at login
, I would say you need to Install Yosemite OS X 10.10.3 again.

Hi Ronni
Fair summary of the status I think.
I get odd results with a PRAM reset
piling up… It now seems to be more than just a USB
stick from Apple Support to install Yosemite.

Hi Ronni
checked at random will display just one copy of the article. Not
life-threatening, but irritating when a small printout uses lots of paper.
While MacIssues may be twice as valuable as many other sites, I would still
like to have just one copy. Any suggestions?

Hi Jennifer
The Google suggestion doesn’t sound right to me for your phone and computer set
up.
Need to know more about your actual house cabling for phone and modem to offer
particular suggestions. Is there no noise from the cordless phone (with
filter) but noise from the extension phones?
and what I have only so far
skimmed on the website, may well lighten my darkness and suggest a solution.
Thank you very much, I will let you know how I get on in due course.
With best wishes, Jennifer
