There are limited numbers of settings to try from this end. So, I

Mac and they came up with a solution that worked.

Might want to re-read that first sentence. The fact that it worked
"sporadically" means, by definition, it did *not* work "properly".
And the fact that Apple (not Canon) had to come up with a fix means it
was buggy Apple software.

Have a nice day.

I will. :-)

The problem (which no one likes to admit) is that the latest OSX from
Apple called "Mavericks" has some bugs. Harry has apparently
experienced a minor one. I have an issue that is well known but, to
date, Apple has not resolved. The Apple Support forums are full of
people with complaints and problems. Right now I am sorta wishing I
had
held off upgrading to Mavericks. Based on what I've read, the previous
OSX (Mountain Lion) was optimized and stable. I don't know how Apple
updates it's current OSX with improvements. I occasionally check for
software updates on the iMac but so far it just reports that the
version
I have is current.

I found out today the Spinning ball of death. Apple equivelent to Blue
Screen of Death. Found out how to Force Quit a progam today because of
that. Was a Pages problem. Lots of comments on the problem on the
Apple Forums.

It's actually called a "beach ball."

OK, the Spinning Beach Ball of Death.

I like that.. Spinning Beach Ball of Death!
