Need Help Ye,
boot your MacBook Pro into Recovery mode by holding down a Command key and the R key as it starts up. Once the Mac OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Is it still very slow?

  • IMac has suddenly become very slow doing everything?

    My iMac has suddenly become very slow -at present it is useless and will have to take to apple unless you can help.?

    First, make sure you have adequate backups. If your hard disk is failing this could be a sign. It can be replaced if necessary, but a backup strategy is recommended whether or not you are experiencing problems.
    Read: OS X Mountain Lion: If your Mac runs slowly. It applies to Lion as well. The article is very cursory, but be sure to read through to the end. Unfortunately the link there is broken, so use this one: Disk Utility. To do this you must start your Mac from the Recovery System or Internet Recovery.
    Rather than ask a dozen questions for more details about your system consider the following. You must be running either Lion or Mountain Lion. Including your version of OS X in your system description would help.
    Apple Support Communities contributor etresoft wrote a very useful app to quickly gather certain system information that may help point to a cause of this problem. Go to his website, download and run EtreCheck:
    http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck
    Etrecheck will take a moment to run as it collects its data.
    Copy and paste its output in a reply. Do not be concerned about anything that says "Problem" or "failed".
    EtreCheck was designed to remove any personal information (such as your computer's name and serial numbers) but if you see anything that looks like an email address or any other personal information that should not be divulged to others, please delete or obscure that information when you post the reply.
    When you are finished with EtreCheck, quit the program. It occupies very little space, and you can keep it or drag it to the Trash as you wish.

  • My iMac has suddenly become very slow to wake from "sleep." Why? How can I fix this?

    My iMac has suddenly become very slow to wake from "sleep." How do I fix this and what is causing the problem? Even the mouse wakes very slowly.

    Try these basic troubleshooting steps.
    1. Quit all app scompletely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    2. 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.
    3. Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

    What does "it will not let me purchase it" mean exactly? Are you getting an error message?

  • I purchased Lightroom 5, loaded it on my Mac, and updated to version 5.6. I then tried importing photos from my Sony DSC-RX100iii. Unfortunately it only imports JPEG files but no RAW files. What is the problem and how do I fix it?

    I purchased Lightroom 5, loaded it on my Mac, and updated to version 5.6. I then tried importing photos from my Sony DSC-RX100iii. Unfortunately it only imports JPEG files but no RAW files. What is the problem and how do I fix it?

    Than LR should have brought in the RAW files as well. ACR is the RAW
    processing engine used by LR under the covers so anything not supported by
    ACR would not be supported by Lightroom.
    Are you shooting RAW plus JPEG? By default, Lightroom will stack then
    unless you tell it not to. Check to see if there is a small badge on the
    preview that looks like two sheets of paper with a number. That is how
    Lightroom indicates a stack. You can unstack them by clicking on the badge.
    There is also a menu item to stack/unstack photos. Otherwise, I would have
    to research but not sure why Lightroom would ignore the RAW photos but
    still import the JPEGS.

    Hi IG viper,
    Placing your iPod into recovery mode should allow you to successfully restore the device.
    You might see these error messages if any of these are true:
    Your device has a beta version of iOS.
    You're trying to install an earlier version of iOS (downgrading).
    Your device has unauthorized modifications to iOS, also called "jailbreaking."
    Use recovery mode to restore your device to the latest version of iOS.

  • The battery of my iPhone 5 easily discharges even if not in use. This started 11 months after purchase. The unit passed the Apple Battery Health Test Protocol but the performance showed otherwise. What is the problem and how do I solve it?

    The battery of my iPhone 5 easily discharges even when not in use. The unit was tested by Apple and passed the Battery Health Test although the performance showed otherwise. The battery deterioration started 11 months after purchase and is not covered by Apple warranty. What is the problem of the iPhone5 and would appreciate suggestions on how to address this problem. By the way, I have a 2 year old iphone 4S with a battery performance as good as when it was bought two years ago.

    Hi there Dan Laven,
    You may find the information in the article below helpful.

    About battery life and the battery
    Battery life and number of charge cycles vary by use and settings. Find more information about batteries for iPhone and iPod.
    Find information on how long the battery is expected to last between charges.
    Rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced.

  • Hello My macbook pro has suddenly become very slow,any solution?

    Hey Tafaya,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing performance issues with your MacBook Pro. The following resource may provide a solution, while it is titled for OS X Mavericks - the same steps apply for Yosemite:

  • My MacBook Pro is slower than my older Macbook Pro. What's the problem and how do I fix it?

    So I have 2 MacBook Pro's, one fast and one slow. I can't seem to figure out why my older mac is faster compared to my more newer one. The same apps run much slower on my new mac.
    Here are the specs for both computers:
    MacBook Pro                                                  MacBook Pro
    Size: 17"                                                         Size: 13"
    Processor: 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo                 Processor: 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
    RAM: 4 GB                                                     RAM: 4 GB
    HD: 160 GB                                                     HD: 500 GB
    Year: Mid 2007                                                Year: Mid 2012
    As you can see, my older mac should be a bit slower han the newer one. I have all he same apps on each one. The only problem I saw was the newer one had more inactive RAM han the older one. The newer one has been like this for a while, so I reinstalled the OS and the same problem was still occuring.

    Increase the RAM on your New MBP...
    You can use these Links to check which RAM is suitable for your Mac...
    http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/apple/memory/
    If in the UK... Go to http://curcial.com
    It is Important to get the Correct and Matching RAM

    I have several keynote presentations on my newish computer but am not unable to open them. I get the message "keynote cannot be installed because of a problem" (unspecified). Does anybody know why this happend? Does it related to using Microsoft "University"  2011? How can I fix it? Thanks!

    Thank you for your reply.
    I just tried the 3-step process suggested on http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2431353
    This all started when my mouse/thumb clicker was going crazy. Found an expanded battery. Obviously need a new battery. Unfortunately must wait 6 weeks to get my new battery. Meanwhile, I'm running my computer on AC only, as there appears to be no other option. I was informed that when using AC only (no battery) some high-energy-use programs like Office might not function.
    Do you know if there is away to use office even when just using AC and not having the battery in? I'm doubting if I have other OSX problems because everything else works: email, safari, itunes, iphoto, quicktime, etc . . . . ?
    ciao,

  • Video clips show up on SD card while in the camcorder but wont show up in imovie when i plug in my card to the Macbook Pro. What is the problem and how can i fix it?

    Please Help!

    I downgraded flash to 10.3 and it fixed the problem. Everything works fine now. I suggest everyone do this until Adobe releases a fix for 11.7.

    Wow!  I think I had this same issue just last night.
    I was cleaning my macbook pro retina on the outside.  Then I opened it up and was wiping dust off the monitor and I can't pinpoint exactly when, but the colors changed suddenly.  It looked super strange, it was like green halo's and it looked worse when looking at it at an angle.  Of course I took no pictures!!!  I was freaking out that my 2 grand laptop was busted and I somehow removed a protective film or something.
    But I digress...  The image looked very green and spacey, it was almost a neat effect.  After about 5 minutes it started to look a little more digital though.  There were straight lines of this halo effect on the edges and top.  After about 10 minutes it turned into a predominate issue with the blacks on screen.  I could open a web browser and it was unnoticable on a white background.  After about 15 minutes, you could only barely see the green cloud effect if you looked at the monitor from an extreme angle.  After about 20 minutes, it was completely back to normal, I almost feel paranoid like I see a halo or something strange.  But I believe that might be all in my head now.
    So yerp, lemme know what you guys figure out.
