My question now
is whether I can suppress the spinning cursor of death that appears during
the startup operation. Is there a simple way to do this? The main thread is
busy with doing whatever prepareContent is doing.

If you block the main thread for an unreasonable amount of time, your app should have the spinning wheel cursor. If you want to avoid that, you would have to figure out a way to avoid blocking the main thread. Loading your data in a secondary thread would most likely be the way to go - if CoreData supports that of course (and if not, that's probably worth a bug report). Attempting to "fix" this by suppressing the busy cursor seems like a very bad idea.
