My iMac turns on and has the apple screen on with the boot up continually running. There is a little circle thing that indicates that it is trying to boot up. But nothing is happening. CAN ANYONE HELP ME???

much worse is relative - it’s always bad when something like that happens but i would do pretty much the same

  • reset the iMac like this and that if the iMac still won’t boot
  • use the instllerdisk and try to boot up. use the disk utility to check/repair permissions a few more infos are here
