Any ideas would be helpful.
I have just tried Repair Disk in Recovery mode but there were no issues so it had nothing to repair
I ran "repair disk permissions" but that has made no difference
I just reinstalled OSX Mavericks from within OSX Mavericks but that hasn't helped either
Anyone out there got any suggestions?
Specifically this post https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5484035?answerId=23727047022#23727047022
luke_aus has found a solution for this issue on his Mac. It could be worth trying the link above…
