Multiple issues since downloading mavericks involving slow computer / google mail / skype etc

I hav 2 mac's only 1 downloaded the Mavericks and regret doing it. Generally the computer is so much slower, where its suppose to increase the speed?? Issues to be more specific -
Safari - about half the speed it was
Time machine - use to automatically reset when reboot and does not do this
Skype - after a period of time the sound cuts so that incomoimng messages are muted so i miss calls
Google - apart from being slow it requires multiple daily retype of the password as it blocks gmail after a few hours, i get multiple downloads of dupl;icated messages.
screen saver suddenly became very complicated to get my iphoto pics included in the search options
I run Outlook for Mac 2011 which is a v good package and before Maverick was fine but is now super slow
i am downloading all the upgrades hoping that fixes will appear but this maverick upgrade is a disaster...

Since downloading Maverick I have a long hang time, computer crashes, can't use word and I can't access finder, why?

Since downloading Maverick I have a long hang time, computer crashes, can't use word and I can't access finder, why? Also, iTunes is horrible. While I'm listening to my music iTunes will just stop playing the song for at least 5 minutes and I can't force quit why does it do that? This is the first time I have ever felt like my iMac is just as bad as a PC and I wonder if Steve Jobs would have let the program be relase to the public with all the problems involved. No wonder Maverick was free. IT ***** BIG TIME!

Hello, vanvu.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Since you are experiencing this issue with both a wired and wireless connection only on your home network and not at other locations, this issue would related to your router. I would first recommend power cycling the router and testing the connection again. If the issue persists, try updating your routers settings per the article below.

Since downloading maverick cannot tether i4S to my apple air 11" computer

since downloading maverick to my 11" Mac Air, I cannot tether my i4S phone it. I recently installed a Apple Air Port Time Capsule, also.

You could try creating a USB boot disk and install from there. How-to: http://arstechnica.com/apple/2014/10/how-to-make-your-own-bootable-os-x-10-10-yo semite-usb-install-drive/
I recommend the "The only-slightly-less-easy way" from the article, it's actually easier in my opinion.
Edit: Official instructions for installing Mavericks here: Creating a bootable OS X installer in OS X Mavericks . Refer to article above for copy-paste procedure for Yosemite.

MacBook won't "wake up" from sleep mode since downloading Mavericks.

I have a 2008 MacBook and since downloading Mavericks, I've had a lot of issues when the computer is in "sleep mode." There are many times where it won't wake up and just remains a black screen. I'm forced to shut it down and turn it back on. When I do this, I have to login and it reloads everything I had had opened when it was put into sleep mode. Help! Thanks.

I have the same issue with my Macbook Pro 2.4
Have you by any chance installed a new RAM?. I've just added new 8 GB RAMs & I noticed the issue afterwards, but I'm still not sure if it's the cause.

Since downloading Maverick

Since downloading Maverick, whenever I am in GB 11 (v 6.0.5) GB will not open a new Software Instrument track when I push the + icon or through the scroll down menu.
Is anyone experiencing the same issue?
Duplicate track works fine,
New Instrument Track works fine
Guitar Track works fine
Software Instrument.... NOTHING.
Have tried everything to no avail.
I am assuming an OS issue?
If anyone has that experience please let me know.
Thank You

The startup disk may need repairing ...
Launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utillities
Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Verify Disk (not Verify Disk Permissions)
If DU reports errors, restart your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys. From there you should be able to acces the built in utilities in OS X Recovery
Make sure to back up all important files first before using OS X Recovery.
OS X Recover does require a broadband high speed internet connection.

I have Office 2011 which includes Word. Ever since downloading Mavericks, when I try to send a two-page word document, some recipients get only one page. Also sometimes when I burn an image from iPhoto on to a disc, only part of the image appears. Why?

I have Office 2011 which includes Word. Ever since downloading Mavericks, when I try to send a two-page Word document by email, some recipients get only one page. Also when burning an image from iPhoto (usually no larger than 1mb) on to a disc, only part of it appears. It appears to have been magnified so that only a part of the image appears. Can anyone enlighten me as to what is happening? And how to fix it??

Why suddenly has the ability to SCAN on my Epson XP305 home edition suddenly stopped SINCE DOWNLOADING MAVERICK

Since downloading Maverick, I am unable to scan as before using my Epson Home Edition XP305 printer/scanner

You probably need a new driver.

Problems with Photoshop CS4 since downloading Mavericks

Since downloading Mavericks, Photoshop CS4 is not working correctly. Specifically, I have lost my Tools bar and many of my most useful Tools, including the main cursor. Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks.

I have CS4 and have delayed upgrading to Maverick from Mountain Lion because of rumours of possible problems, have you tried the adobe help forums they may be able to help?

HT2486 since downloading mavericks my smart groups don't insert in mails.

since downloading mavericks my smart groups don't insert in mails.

Hi Colin
I dont know if this fixes your problem, but I found this article: http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20050616151738798
The main suggestion is this:
I was able to get around it in a simple but possibly not obvious way. First, make a smart group with your wanted criteria. Next make a regular group whose only member is the smart group. Presto! A smart group that you can use in Mail.app, and that will also auto-complete.

HT201364 i have a 1980 Macbook pro 15' and a fresh version of Lion. Attempts to download Mavericks stopped because computer not OK. Help

Cannot download Mavericks on thius computer when this computer has all requirements.

Your profile shows a 1998 model, which is too old.
Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks.
To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) model number 5,1 or higher
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher

Since downloading Maverick iCal no longer syncs between my MacBook Pro, my iMac or iPad - how do I rectify this?

since downloading Maverick iCal no longer syncs between my MacBook Pro, my iMac or iPad - how do I rectify this? (my first post ever)

I know Pete, but what if I don't have good internet connection sometimes?
Imagine:
this morning planning the whole next week with my iMac, bussiness around Europe.
I must go this evening.
Just now internet line fails in the neighborhood.
Stupid situation, and not so uncommon, cause not all of us are living in Manhattan. (this is what Apple thinks)
Cable must be an option beside iCloud.
true or not?
