The MacMost Question and Answer Forum is a place where you can ask how-to questions about your Mac, iPhone, iPad and other Apple products. MacMost specializes in tutorials, tips and techniques of the “how-to” variety, as opposed to “fix-it” questions that are more about something not working as expected.6/12/10

My keyboard on my iMac stops working randomly. It probably started about three or for weeks ago. The only way to get it going again is to either unplug it from the USB port or restart the computer. Very frustrating. I never know when it will happen.

My iMac hesitates and gives me the beach ball most of the time. I’ve tried some of the things in disk utility. Nothing seems to help. Is there a problem with spotlight maybe?
If anyone can help, please do.

It reboots, then the apple logo shows up, it spins endlessly, and then the screen goes black. I press the power button, then I can hear the drive spinning, but nothing ever happens.
Any ideas?
