Ive got a 17" imac either the last version before the aluminums ones or the one before.
I ran system update yesterday and it booted up fine after it ran the update then this morning when it was supposed to start up (I have a start up and shut down times set in the energy settings)
Now it gets as far as to the desktop. It displays my desktop background (not the icons), the dock and the spinning beachball. It stays like for a minute or two then the screen goes blue and it the cycle starts again.
The last thing I did yesterday were running the system update (iphoto, security update and 1 or 2 small updates (in size at least) and changed some login items (turned off mail, camino and skitch).
Never had any problems with this computer and I have no idea whats going on.
Anyone have any idea?
