Hello folks, I first encountered this problem about a month ago and was offered some very sensible advice by other WAMUGERS. All of which I have exercised.
Frequently (about 30% of the time) when I start my iMac 2.15, once the desktop has appeared, the screen seems to freeze. The dock will not appear and I cannot get the Apple pull down menu to appear. So I have to power off using the power button and then boot up again. It nearly always starts without a problem on the second try. I am using latest Mac OSX. I have deleted all applications in System Preferences/Accounts/Login Items (except for iTunes Helper). I have also uninstalled Virus Barrier X6. But the problem still persists !! What will happen with iTunes if I delete iTunes Helper ? I have never used "repair disk permissions". Could that be of any significance ? If I do "repair disk permissions" is there anything I need to know about doing this ? Can anyone suggest any other remedies that I can try ? This is becoming quite frustrating.
