Q: imac g5 freezes only when connected to wifi
hi i just bought an intel g5 imac running snow leopard. the seller said it was working fine but when i got it home and set it up to wifi ect it was constant freezing the beach ball appears and never goes away constant spinning. Its not just when browsing the web it also interferes with general imac aps for example, finder disk utility it causes everything to freeze, only way to stop is to power off and on again. i took back to seller who opened it and checked it over and it worked fine for him, i tried it out at his home and it never froze once so i thought everything was ok. Soon as i got it home and put it on same beachball again, then i thought to turn off wifi and the freezing has stopped, why would my wifi cause the whole imac to freeze?
iMac, Mac OS X (10.6)
