Not paranoid, just realistic and sensible.

You are very sensible, asking before leaping.

I'm the paranoid one.

For example, I believe Intuit has a similar service called Mint, and Intuit has had security leaks, if memory serves me right, exposing user information.

Brent,

I dont feel too comfortable putting all my financial information anywhere. With that said, I decided to only input my bills. So far I love the application and I would like to continue to use it. I currently pay all of my bills using a prepaid bank card. That way no one has any access to ANY of my bank info. Just being safe!

Carol,

Tod's suggestion is the next logical step, but if it does not work, then you might have too many things starting up in login items. This can run a number of things that will tie-up the Mac before releasing the keyboard or cursor to the user.

If Tod's suggestion does not work, then tell us how many items and what they are in System Prefs/ Users & Groups/ (your account)/ Login Items.

I know my MBP takes a little bit before I can get any thing done, so I usually turn it on first thing and go make coffee. When I come back, i sign in and then have to wait about 90 to 120 seconds. The first download of new emails usually takes 45 to 60 seconds, so that is not in my Login Items. The more you have the Mac launch in Login Items the longer before you can start using it.

Does the keyboard work? The keystroke for shutdown is cmd-opt-ctrl-esc, or just wait for the mouse. Once you are shut down properly, unplug. Now push the power button twice (nothing should happen since you are unplugged) and wait for at least 60 seconds after you have done this. Now plug the computer back in and wait another 10 seconds. Then restart.

If this helps, great. If not, do this all again but when you restart this time, hold down the opt-cmd-p-r keys immediately. That's four keys (in other words, hold Apple and Option and P and R simultaneously). Yup, it requires two hands. Hold these down until you hear the boot chime and continue holding until you hear the chime a second time, THEN release and let the system continue booting.

With luck, the problem is now solved. If not, you probably have software issue of somekind. Check this be restarting in Safe Mode. If the problem does not happen in Safe Mode, we need to look for the startup application that is causing the problem.

Cheers,
tod
