Hi Ronni My problem started after I had downloaded Maverick and the computer had restarted, Mavericks was finishing it’s installation with 1 minute to go when a window came up telling me that the version of “Flip4Mac” was not compatible with the new version of OSX. The window had two boxes, one saying ‘Back’ the other said ‘Continue’, when I clicked on ‘Continue’ all I heard was the beep to tell me that I couldn’t do anything. I left the computer for an hour just in case it was still “doing” something. The screen had frozen. I have since resolved the problem and am now back to normal, Maverick is operating properly at present. I will have to upgrade iPhoto, at present I have been running iPhoto app” 9.2.
Now to clean up my desktop, thanks to you, Peter & Neil. Thank you so much for your latest advice Ronni, I will read your 6 page tutorial now to ensure that I have done everything correctly. Kindest regards Tony BODDINGTON.
