I am experiencing some very strange OSX 10.7.4 behavior and hoping someone
may be able to shed some light on it.
All works fine for some undefined period of time, then I find that no new

Hi Peter,
If I were you I'd also run a disk diagnostic program like
DiskWarrior just to see everything on your hard drive is correct.
Do a full backup of your computer hard drive

Thanks Rick,
I'll check into all those things.
Searching on the web, it appears the most likely cause is an impending hard

with a few exceptions like temp and caches, I have a complete, up to date
backup.

Interesting. I just had the opposite experience. My Time Machine drive
seemed like it was active constantly, and it took forever to copy a few
I'm a little suspicious of Time Machine too. In the process of verifying
the drive right now.

Gone away from the time machine theory. The disk checked out OK and even
if I switch Time Machine off, the problem still occurs.
Strangely though, Disk Utility reports no problems on my main hard drive.
Seems like it should have come up with something if the disk was going bad.
