iMac unresponsive
Posted: August 19th, 2016, 9:30 am
Hi,
My Mac is unresponsive, the finder, some of the applications. I have to force quit every few seconds. I have backup by time machine on ext hd but it's my only mac and I can't access my data from a Windows 10 laptop. I really need access to my data.
It's Friday end of work day so I think I am with this problem alone. I need to be accessible 24/7 doing important volunteer work and I NEED my data so I need to fix it as a matter of emergency.
I didn't update to El Capitan yet, but I doubt that this will solve the unresponsive Finder.
Most likely overheated processor (my uneducated guess). Will switch it off let it cool down.
In the meantime any other ideas are appreciated.
Thanks.
