MacBook Air taking long time to open folder

Running Mountain Lion when opening folders though finder or saving a file to a folder though an application, seems to take a long time to view contents of a folder. It evetualy popualtes but sometimes takes five to fifteen seconds regardless of view I am using.
Any thoughts apprciated.

The reason I asked, is that until I updated to 10.8.2, my shutdown was just a few seconds. For some unknown reason, the shutdown is routinely in the 15-20 second range now.
I have tried disabling every known startup application, deleting the LaunchDaemons, and LaunchAgents folder contents, and selectively quitting every non-essential process. I have also disabled Spotlight and Notification center. All was to no avail.
What is left is the operating system itself. I reinstalled the OS, mind you, a repair install. Still a slow shutdown.
I suppose what is left is a clean reinstall, with a Setup Assitant restoration of my apps and data. If that doesn't work, I suppose I'll just have to sit and wait for 10.8.3, hoping that Apple is working on it.

  • Hyperion Financial reports-taking long time to open after migrating to 9

    Hi,
    Financial reports version 7 are migrated to system 9.
    Problem that we are facing now is that reports take ling time to open.
    Can anyone suggest how to improve the performance .
    before migration to system 9 financial reports was working fine but now it is taking a long time to open

    Are they taking a long time to open in the studio or in the workspace?
    There could be lots of reasons:
    Have there been server changes with the migration?
    Have there been any changes in dynamically calculated dimensions?

    How much memory do you have in your machine?
    Are you running VMWare? How much physical (not logical) memory do you have allocated.
    What else do you have concurrently running on your machine?

  • Disk Utility taking long time to open directory with disk images

    Hi and thanks in advance.
    I have a couple of CD and DVD disk images stored in a folder (and organized into several sub-folders) on a FAT32 volume.
    The problem is that recently, Disk Utility takes forever to display the content of any of these folders when I select Open Disk Image from the File menu. The Select an Image to Attach dialog remains empty and the beach ball spins. After a very long time (10-15minutes? I've never had the patience to time it.), the contents will display, if at all. During this period of virtual inactivity, the program is unresponsive.
    Since the FAT32 volume is also accessible from my Bootcamped Windows XP OS, I tried doing a disk check and a defragment but it hasn't improved my problem.
    Any ideas?

    HI,
    Make sure your MacBookPro has sufficient free disk space to read the disk images.
    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure you always have a minimum of 10% to 15% free disk space at all times.

  • MacBook Air spends long time in blue screen

    When my MacBook Air boots from the internal hard disk, it spends 30 s hanging on the blue screen. This seem excessive. When I boot it from an external hard disk, it spends 1-2s on the blue screen. In itself it doesn't bother me, but I worry it's a symptom of some bigger problem.
    Background: my hard disk broke, Apple installed a new hard disk, and I reinstalled from a TM backup using migration assistant. Everything works fine, I checked the new hard disk using disk util. Only the long blue screen pause seems out of sorts. Could some junk have come over when I used migration assistant? How could I identify it?

    Hi
    This is usually caused by a StartUp Item, Launch Daemon or Launch Agent. Try a Safe Boot, to see if it makes a difference. If so, then have a look in the following folders:
    /Library/LaunchAgents/
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/
    /Library/StartupItems

  • PI - ESR taking long time to open

    Hi,
    We have PI production system 7.1 on Linux, and we got issue that the ESR link is not getting opened.
    It takes huge time and after that it thrown 500 Internal server Error.
    http://<hostName>:<port>/rep/start/repository.jnlp
    It was working before and in quality system also it works.
    The JRE version is proper.
    Kindly suggest
    Thank you, Regards
    Girish

    Hi,
    Thank you for reply.
    It is a unix server on which PIP is running.
    And from the same browser I can open the ESR for quality system properly.
    So it seems the issue is not related to local browser of JRE too.
    Kindly suggest.
    Thank you, Regards,

  • HT1199 Hi. I've got an issue with Pages running on Mavericks on Macbook air. Every time I open the app it hangs right there and I can't do anything on it. I've uninstall and install it back again but the issue still persists. Any help please?

    HI. I've got an issue with Pages running on Mavericks. Everytime I open it up it just hangs right there and I can't do anything with it. I've deleted the app and installed it back again but the problem sitll persists. Any help please?

    Thank you so much for helping,
    But i really wonder how you did that. did you always switch between design view and preview view, then change the key position for 2px then switch back, to align the four letters? because i imagine that can get really frustrating, if you have a logo consisting of 58 parts instead of 4!:)
    Anyway thank you very much for your time and effort!!!!

  • Work book taking longer time to open

    Hi,
    We created a workbook and embedded one  input ready query in it.  The query when executed separately takes 1 minute to load.  But when the work book is opened for the same selections, it takes 3-5 mins. 
    There is no Macros written in the workbook and no functions are called while loading work book.
    What might be the reason for this.  Is there any way by which we can improve the performance?
    Please suggest.
    Thanks,
    Seetharaman

    Hi there,
    Open BEx Analyzer.
    Click on global settings (before opening the workbook) and mark the option "Repair workbook while running" (option available since BEx Analyzer support package 5 and above)
    Now open the workbook (it will still take the 3-5 minutes).
    Now save the workbook
    Remove the option you have just marked before ("Repair workbook while running").
    Close BEx Analyzer and test it again.
    Diogo.

  • Report Background Engine Taking long time to open

    I am seeing this problem. When I run a report (in forms 6i), I get a "FRM-41211: Integration error: SSL failure running another product". The Report background engine doesn't come up right away... looking at the system process the RBE starts using almost 50% of the CPU and takes about 10 min to come up. If I run it on my local machine, just running the executable (c:\oracle6i\bin\RWRBE60.EXE) it comes up right away... on this users it doesn't. We think it may be something blocking it... anyon ehave any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Hello
    I recently had that same problem with FRM-41211 error. It turned out eventually that the culprit was newly installed HP Deskjet printer on that employees computer. When I removed the printer and uninstalled its driver reports started to work normally. Hope that helps.

  • My macbook air takes longer time to shut down even after having 32GB of free space in it.

    Please give me solution fast.

    And that's tested with your Mac? That's fast (I only get about 23Mbps with my ISP!).
    You should have no trouble with slow page loading. You might want to change your DNS's through the Network panel in System Preferences. I would try the OpenDNS servers:
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    If that doesn't help, call back...

  • WebI Report is taking too long time to opening

    Hi All,
    When iam trying to open the WebI report in Infoview , it is taking long time to open and refresh,
    Please suggest me a solution.
    Thanks in advance..
    Regards,
    Mahesh

    Hi,
    As the issue you are facing is that the webi report is taking too long to open and refresh, I would recommend the below steps.
    1. Check whether the webi report is set to "Refreh on Open" if yes probably you need to uncheck, save the report and open it again.
    2. Try to run the same query in the backend database and see if it returns the data.
    3. Try to run refresh the report for a smaller data selection.
    4. make the report run on a specific webi server, and when refreshing have your BOBJ admin monitor that process to see if the process is going in a hung state, using High memory etc.
    5. restart webi process and run again
    Thanks,
