Extremely slow mbp all of the sudden
I have a mbp that is about 3 years old. When I turned it on last night, it took forever to start up, and every program I was using ran extremely slow, often displaying the spinning color wheel. When I had last used the computer before this it worked just fine with no slowness. This has never happened before. I checked the Activity Monitor and nothing seems to be hogging a ton of memory or processor power. My hard drive is not near to being full.
Any suggestions?
Thank you!
One common cause is a failing harddrive. I hope you have your data backed up; a cloned external harddrive is recommended. Can you check your SMART status is Disk Utility? That can be a major clue if the drive is failing, but not definitive. With a cloned external drive, you can also boot from it and if that runs normally, another clue pointing to the internal drive.
Of course, there could be any number of other causes.

Extremely slow mac all of a sudden, Frequent SPOD
Today I started getting some pretty severe slowdown/performance problems with the Macbook Pro that I've been using. My EtreCheck log sheet is attached at the end of this message.
What I was doing before -The last time I remember was that I was having issues with Firefox and did some "Force Quit" commands and then tried to re-install a fresh copy. I did not install MacKeeper or anything like that.
System-
2.5 GHz, Macbook Pro (13 inch display)
4 GB
Problems -
The problems started rather suddenly this morning. Since then, the computer basically runs extremely slowly and crashes often. This includes frequent "spinning wheels of death" for programs/commands executed by mouse clicking. For programs that are not run by this the commands generally just 'hang' for various stretches of time.
Things I've done/checked -
So far, I've done several things to either fix the problem or diagnose it. No effects as far as I can see:
- used Activity Monitor to verify that the system is not paging the hard drive (i.e. that I'm out of RAM) and that there are no programs chewing up a large amount of CPU. . System is not paging the hard drive no problems using a ton of CPU.
- cleared the Dynamic Link Editor Cache from here:
sudo update_dyld_shared_cache -force
- Used EtreCheck (output attached below).
Things I've noticed
- GUI-executed programs get the spinning wheel of death; those executed from command line hang.
- During a 'hang', different tabs of a web browser become invisible.
- If I execute IDL (a programming/image display language) from Terminal in a new directory, it hangs the first time or will hang periodically. If I exit and then execute again it loads progressively faster. Same thing happens with simple unix commands like "ls" or "pwd"
Things I've yet to do- I haven't run Disk Utility yet. The initial time estimate for running it was very long, so I thought I would try to solve the problem in other ways first.
- I have not tried to wipe the hard drive.

I have frequent “Spinning Wheel of Death” freezes for commands I execute with a GUI/mouse clicking, hanging with command line executables (e.g. in Terminal) and overall slowness.

Hi new to the forum in a bid to solve my broadband speeds. Everything been fine before now with speeds up to 6 meg

Here are the details from the hub 2.0, if anyone can understand it, i have reset it this morning and changed the filter in the master socket which the hub is connected to.

TS1741 my ipad all of the sudden stopped charging
My Ipad all of the sudden stopped charging. It wont even charge or be recognized from my laptop on itunes. Please help. Is my battery dead?
Three possibilities - bad cable, charger or the iPad/battery. Since iPad not recognized, I suspect the cable. Make sure the cable is fully connected.
Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
And this - Unplug the charger from the iPad and then replug. May resume charging.
Or - Recalibrate the battery. See link below.
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night. Also look at The iPad's charging challenge explained http://www.macworld.com/article/1150356/ipadcharging.html

Apps open and close all of the sudden
Ok, my iphone was working fine until 10 minutes ago. I had no issues with it and all of the sudden, I tried opening up an app and all it will do is just open and close all of the sudden. And it's with ALL apps! I tried doing everything there is to do to solve the issue and nothing. I even followed someone's post about downloading a free app and nothing. I have tried restoring it, doing the sleep/wake and home button till apple logo comes up, and turning it off normally, and even re-syncing to computer and NOTHING! What should I do?
Download another free App - doesn't matter which one.
Sync and then hold down the Home and top button until the phone switches of completely.
Restart the phone and you should be fine - you did nothing wrong but its a sign of a bad sync.
You're not the first so enjoy ! -

My Ipod Touch 5 got a long red line all of the sudden on the screen and i do not know why
Hello,
So i have purchased my Ipod Touch 5 through apple. The thing is, i do not know why a red long line appeared on my screen all of the sudden. It has not fallen at all so i was just wondering if there is the possibility of sending my ipod into apple and getting another one since i have warranty.Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Desktop Software Stopped working all of the sudden..
All of the sudden I got a windows message saying "Blackberry Desktop Software has stopped working" (A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.) I un-installed and re-installed the program and the same thing continues to happen. I have no idea what's going on. Has this ever happened to anyone else? Can someone help me out?
It happens to me too just now. I just had my laptop upgraded. before, i have it installed successfully without any problems encountered. in fact I was able to use it early yesterday before i upgraded my laptop. just now, when im trying to install the pc software, while installig it, it just gives a notification that it stopped. but later will show that i have successfully installed. but once you click to open the icon, it shows "Blackberry Desktop Software has stopped working". same with you i uninstall reinstall for 4x now, but still it isnt working.I even though it might be with my net connection, but it is not. I hope someone could help us.

PPC all of the sudden will not file share, what can I do?
I have a PPC G5 OSX 10.4.11 all of the sudden I went to connect to my MacBook Pro with file sharing and I can not. I can see the MacBook in my network area and when I hit connect it lets me put in my password and then I try to click on the folder to mount it and my finder freezes. I relaunch the finder but still get the spinning wheel of death over the network window. I have looked online and all the forums say I have to reinstall my OS but there has to be another way, can anyone help? I also try to open my "file share" option on my PPC but it will not do that either. Thanks in advance.

Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move these files to the Desktop.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)

my iWork (pages and keynote) are not communicating with the iCloud. I haven't changed anything and all of the sudden there is no sync happening. My iCloud account is fine as i can create documents on my iPad and they appear on iCloud. However, when i change documents on my mac (documents that are supposed to be in the iCloud), the changes do not sync with my other devices nor with iCloud. Even when i create new documents on my mac and save them to iCloud, all seems okay and i can access them from my mac, however they do not show up in the iCloud and i can't access them with my other devices.
Most recent version of mountain lion updated over a month ago. New iPad in use for over a month.
thanksThe same thing is happening to me, Mail was fine about an hour ago and now is rejecting correct password. Typical when today I'm waiting some important emails!
