After finally learning to boot it up, I now see that the cursor is frozen and the "documents" button is depressed in the launcher. Does anyone know what I should do to progress?
Try holding down the shift key (use the left one to be sure). This will allow the Mac to boot without loading a bunch of stuff during startup. Do you know which launcher you're using (eg. the one which came with the system software, At Ease, something which came from a third party)?
And please don't cross post messages. If you have trouble getting a response from one, then go on to another.
