Help?
I’m tearing my hair (what’s left) out over these bugs…
I have a 10.11.4 system that is 99% great, but when it fails, it fails badly.
Symptoms:
- Keynote will occasionally be unable to auto-save the document. When this happens, I can no longer Save it as well. I can however Save As (Duplicate) and save just fine and don’t lose any work. (I’m not alone: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5497463 )
- Keynote occasionally loses track of ALL my videos. The only way to recover from this is to manually re-load every single video file in my keynote project. (I’m not alone: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7009032 )
- System Preferences / Keychain is OFF, but when I click the “Options…” I get a beachball then nothing happens.
Log data:
- When these problems are happening, Console.log typically shows a bunch of errors, most of which have to do with sandbox, and they seem to be sandbox errors suggesting that the Keynote app can’t write to my SSD any longer.
What I’ve tried:
- Rebooting (sometimes seems to fix the problems for a while, but they always return)
- Disk Repair
- Deleting and re-creating System/Preferences/Internet Accounts.
- Spotlight Rebuild of /
Theories:
- Since a perfectly normal system goes wacky and cant write to the SSD, and I see a bunch of sandbox errors, I have a hunch this is all Sandbox related.
- Since I see weirdness with my iCloud settings, I’m suspicious of bad account settings.
