Hi, BG. Nice to have you here.
Which OSX? In the upper left hand corner of your monitor you'll see a little Apple. Click on that and from the drop down menu select
About This Mac. That will tell you which OS you are running (10.3, 10.4, 10.5). That will help. You also see listed your
Processor and
Memory. You can take a screen capture and post it here, or type the info yourself.
To screen capture: with the info window open hold down these 3 keys at the same time:
Shift / Command (has the apple logo on it) / 4 (from above the letters, not on the numeric keypad).
You'll see your mouse turn into a faint cursor. Click, hold and drag that around the info window and you'll hear the sound of a camera snapshot. On your desktop a "PNG" or a "PDF" file will appear (depends on how your system is set up).
To post the PNG or PDF to here ... open a reply window and scroll down just a bit and you'll see
Manage Current Attachments and below that a
Browse button. Click the
Browse button. Navigate to your desktop in the window that opens, select the document and click the
Open button. Next to the
Browse button in your reply window you'll see your file name. Now click the
UPLOAD button. Once it is uploaded you need to "manage" it. Click on the Manage menu and on the left you should see a symbol with a green plus sign. Click on that and it will attach your pic to your post.

Then we'll have a better idea what you are running system wise and can track the problem down from there.
Unless someone smarter than me (and there are plenty of them around here)
comes along and knows what the solution is right off the top of their head.
PS: I like BG ... as in Beegie Adair. Great female jazz pianist.
