Hello Chris, You can select a column or row in Numbers by going to the first cell in that row or column and holding down the Shift key, use either the right arrow key for a row, or the down arrow key for a column.
As for your Busy problem, are you by any chance running Windows as a virtual machine? If so, you'll need more memory.
