My ipad is running very slowly on iOS 7, which I got yesterday.
My ipad is running about two to three times slower now that zi have ipS7. What should I do?
Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

After upgrading to iOS 8.0 on my iPad 2, it is running very slowly and doesn't always respond to screen taps. Is OS8 the problem?

Updated to IOS 8.1.2 and iPad2 now runs very slowly

My iPod runs VERY slowly, I preordered it when the first white iPods came out. Even typing here it can't keep up, I know if you have less than 6 GB left on your memory it supposedly runs slowly so I deleted stuff and have 13 GB left, I also always close my apps every few hours and my apps always shut down unexpectedly or even before the app can get to the main screen. I do not want to but a new one at all and my dad suggests restoring it and putting it to its original settings but I'm afraid I'll lose my smurfs village and tiny tower. So is restoring your iPod the only way to improve the speed or are there other things?
Try backing up the iPod and then restoring friom backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iTunes backup make sure that all you synced media like apps and music are in your iTunes library since synced media is not in the backup. You iPod will be like it was, included app data like saved games, when the backup was made. -

Mac is running very slowly.
Hi Apple Community,
My mac has been running very slowly, and there has been several other problems as well. I have a early 2009 iMac, running OS X 10.9.5. First of all, I have recently moved all of my photos and music to an external hard drive to clear up the internal hard drive, and Time Machine is also backing up to an external hard drive, and the internal hard drive is now about 60% free. I thought that would be able to get my Mac to run quicker, but it is still has slow as it was before. I have read recent community posts on what to do about this, one suggested downloading Etresoft to get a report on the condition of my mac. I ran Etresoft (I honestly don't know what to make of anything in the report), and the report is here:
Problem description:
Mac runs very slowly, applications will take longer than usual to open. Internal hard drive is about 60% full, and 3 external hard drives are used to hold photos, music, and backups.

So if someone could please explain what this means, or suggest some other ways to find out what is wrong with my Mac, it would be extremely helpful.
Thanks
MorganYou need to uninstall all Norton Antivirus softwarwe/ utilities.
https://support.norton.com/sp/en/us/home/current/solutions/kb20080427024142EN_En dUserProfile_en_us
Also, uninstall all Seagate hard drive software.
In addition, you need to install more RAM into your iMac.
Your year and model IMac can take a max. total of 8 GBs of RAM.
I strongly recommend that you purchase and install the maximum amount of RAM.
Correct, compatible and reliable Mac RAM can ONLY be purchased from online RAM sources Crucial memory or OWC (macsales.com). -
My MacBook Pro is running very slowly! Please help!
Hi all, as of late last year my MacBook Pro started running very slowly. As I'm a novice when it comes to computers I thought I'd turn to the interweb for solutions. I've tried a couple of basic things but don't seem to be getting anywhere.I ran the EtreCheck program as it seemed to help others. Would love some help interpreting this...

Thanks in advance! MikePlease read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. It will be slow, but there should be no beachballing. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2. -

why are most of the apps (anything that has to search) on my iphone4 and ipad (1) running very slow (or not at all) since iOS5 update...esp google. Search seems to go quickly, but then when I try to open a link..nothing. I have turned off icloud.
I am having the same problem. Did turning off iCloud work? Did you just turn everything off or did you actually delete the account off your iPod?

I have an iMac 5.1 which is running OSx10.5.8 - it runs very slowly and I can't find if there is a particular problem. In the process, I have tried to install 10.6 [I have a new iMac] and the 5.1 won't accept the install discs.
As you have discovered... you cannot use the install discs from another Mac...

FCPX hangs on loading event in boot up, but when it does boot it runs very slowly.
I'm having a problem with FCP 10.0.9
When I try to open the program it gets hung up on the opening logo at loading event. I get a message that FCP is not responding in the force quit menu, but after around 6 hours FCPX opens up, but runs very slowly. I can see all of my projects and everything appears to be intact.
I'd like for FCPX to run smoothly again so I am looking for advice on how to fix it.
Here is some pertinent information.
I'm working on an 2.93 GHz intel core 7 iMac / 16GB memory / ATI Radeon HD 5750 1024 MB / OS 10.7.5
Everything is on an external 12tb Raid drive that has 5.7 TB free and is connected via Firewire 800.
The footage has been going into FCP is Arri Alexa footage that has been transcoded using Devinci resolve and proxies were created for all the footage within fcp.
My event folder is around 600 gb and the transcoded footage that has been imported into FCP is around 6TB
I've been working for about 3 weeks and have everything broken into 4 projects within one event and everything was working smoothly until yesterday.
I have no compound clips, but all of my imported footage has been synced, multicam-ed and organized by keyword collections.
I've tried loading the even backup to no avail (and foolishly I did not have backups stored anywhere else)
I've tried trashing preferences.
I've tried reinstalling the program.
I've tried hiding events and projects with Event Manager X.
I've tried running diagnostics using the digital rebellion pro maintenance tools Corrupt Clip Finder, Project repair, and Quick Fix but everything came back clean.
One person at Apple technical support suggested I move the footage out of my event folder In pieces to see if there was a corrupt clip. First I removed the proxies and then the original media and then everything else (including all render data) until the only thing in the even folder was the event itself, but still FCP hung up on boot up.
Another apple technical support person suggested I should have optimized my media (which I did not do) but after getting FCP to boot up I let it optimize all my media overnight and this has not had any significant effect.
My console displays lots of error messages end with "Too many SQL Variables"
Another error message I am getting in console is:
Class CMIOGraphService is implemented in both /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreMediaIO.framework/Versions/A/CoreMediaIO and /Applications/Final Cut Pro.app/Contents/Frameworks/CoreMediaLion/CoreMediaIO.framework/Versions/Curren t/CoreMediaIO. One of the two will be used. Which one is undefined.
When I hide the event but keep the projects in their proper place FCP boots up quickly and my projects are all there but none of the footage appears since it is all within my event.
One thing I am reluctant to try but may end up doing if I cannot find the correct answer from this internet community is Export and XML and use Xto7 to try to open it up in FCP7 and finish the project there. This feels like something that is going to cause me problems down the road, but I'm unsure.
As is almost always the case, I'm under an impossibly tight deadline so any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
BrodyQuite the same problem here: FCP X (10.0.9) crashed while quitting, now it's always hanging up (opening logo freezes while displaying "loading .... event"). The Console says: "SQLite error code:1, 'too many SQL variables'".
The difference maybe is that my event isn't that big. 350 GB, including the original and transcoded media. The fcpevent file itself is about 340 MB. Unfortunately (my fault!) I didn't backup any of the .fcpevent files.
Is there any possibility to repair the .fcpevent file? I tested the repair tool by digital rebellion, but still no success. Are there any other ideas?
Thanks!

Yosemite running very slowly on new MacBook Pro
I just bought a new 13" MacBook Pro (not Retina) last month. When I set it up I copied the data and apps from my 2006 MacBook running Snow Leopard. When I try to open apps such as Safari or jEdit or Adobe Reader or NeoOffice it seems to wait forever (or at least 30 seconds) to open them. I thought this would be faster than Snow Leopard, but it's not!
Should I just back this all up with my SuperDuper and start over?
Here are my Etrecheck data:

One of the myths that circulate on this site is the myth that the current version of OS X always needs to more than 4 GB of memory to run well. The myth is based on nothing except the fact that some people keep repeating it. Apple is today selling new Macs with 4 GB of memory that can never be upgraded after they leave the factory. Those Macs come with Yosemite preinstalled, and it can never be downgraded to an older version. So if you were to believe the myth, you would also believe that Apple knows that it's selling products that are permanently crippled right out of the box, no matter how they're used. Read this discussion before you spend money on memory that you may not need.
Some users do need more than 4 GB of memory for full performance. They are running memory-intensive applications, such as photo or video editors, or they're running many programs concurrently, or they have more than one account logged in at the same time. Whether you're one of those users can be determined, in part, by observing the level of memory pressure in the Memory tab of the Activity Monitor window. If the memory pressure graph always stays in the green zone, then a shortage of memory is not causing the problem.
Even if memory pressure is high, that doesn't necessarily mean that adding more memory will help. If one or more processes has a memory leak—a kind of bug—then adding memory, no matter how much, won't help. It will merely delay the onset of the problem, perhaps only by a few minutes or less. That is very likely the case if you already have more than 4 GB. -
Macbook Pro Running Very Slowly
Lately, my Macbook Pro has been running very slowly. The rainbow wheel keeps popping up and it takes a very long time to open windows or quit applications. Also, the computer gets really slowly even if only a few applications are open (e.g. Microsoft Word and iTunes). This problem has started recently, a few months after installing OSX 10.9.5. I don't know if this is the problem, if the hard drive needs to be cleared, some programs are taking up too much RAM, or if the computer is just getting old. Any help would be appreciated, and I have included the EtreCheck below as well.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above.
Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first.
Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of it useless for solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
