Possibly unfreeze a process with Activity Monitor
Authored by: Allerbe on Feb 24, '08 11:28:07AM
I've had a similar experience. Sometimes both my mouse and Wacom pen will freeze when I use the numeric keypad on my Apple Bluetooth keyboard. My first thought was that I'd have to force quit the application that caused this to happen. Then I noticed my mouse and pen would come back to life as soon as Activity Monitor had launched!

This has been a repeatable cure that I and others using the same Mac have used with a 100% success rate dozens of times.

Still would like to know a cure for the underlying (occasional) freezing problem, though...
