Using Safari and listening to music through iTunes. Then BAM. everything freezes. I had maybe 5 tabs open on Safari. EVERYTHING froze. The entire Mac. Only thing moving was my mouse. Could not get ANYTHING to respond be it Mail, Finder, Safari...2nd time this has happened. ONLY option was to hold the power button in and shut down....
Anyone else having this?
After first Freeze it was a real mess. Finder window kept Opening and Closing over and over and over with this message: Message
Web search resulted in multiple posts pointing the finger to Google Drive. Not in my case. Issue was later traced back to Secure Data Transporter software that I use: "Connected Desktop". Once the software was deleted Finder would behave. I could NOT run Connected Desktop UNTIL the Apple "Mail Update for Mavericks" was installed. That update allowed me to run Connected Desktop without Finder going crazy.
This 2nd Freeze was a big concern to me.. I was thinking "here we go again".. But, everything "seems" to be okay....
3rd time. Using Safari 7.0 with only one tab open. EVERYTHING froze. Had to do a hard reboot. Damn. Now getting the jumper finder icon with the same message (see above hyperlink).. Does not jump as fast but, continues to jump.. I quit Secured Data Transporter "Connected Desktop" application AND Google Drive. Finder continues to jump then, somehow fixes itself. stops jumping.. then little later will jump again..
Quit the Connected Desktop ap... now, Finder Icon bounces twice with NO message every 60 secs like clockwork..
Several Reboots later:
Quit Connected Desktop ap... no bounce
Unable to run Connected Desktop ap... Finder keeps opening and closing with message (see above message hyperlink)..
