The following plots on my system; however, it is mostly spikes rather than bins since you asked for 500 bins.

Histogram[arrData3, 500]

Presumably you wanted the bin widths to be 500 which is done by

Histogram[arrData3, {500}]

How do I plot a basic histogram from a list of values.  This simple list will not plot - 

arrData3 = {1067., 2874., 2306., 2828., 2989., 838. , 1302., 2762., 
682., 2108., 2902., 3001., 1997., 1269., 3110., 2496., 1911., 2266., 
2244., 1074., 567., 754., 2987., 1893., 3809., 419., 745.  , 1791., 
578., 1156., 777., 1669., 669., 1853., 2704., 3776., 2389., 57 11.}

Histogram[arrData3, 500]

The result displays a blue box with the word "Histogram" in it, followed by the data, with no graph. 

Thanks, Kurt
