Slow performance since going to Mavericks on aging iMac

hi & thanks in advance: Wondering if my newly sluggish performance, SPODs etc since upgrading to Mavs (10.9.2) from 10.6.8  =  its time to upgrade my machine (late '07 iMac i think). I'd just install more RAM but seems my 4gig is its ceiling? Activity Monitor shows that now even just running one or 2 apps at a time is pushing things. Ran the nifty EtreCheck (see below).
I'm a Veetle watcher, wondering if their ancient 1.0 mac plugin is no good w/Mavs?
Here's what's happening:
- iPhoto now SPODs for about 30 secs after launch, but then all's well once that stops. (btw when I go offline/disconnect the modem's firewire to test run apps, there's no SPOD-ing.)
- GBand 10, all's fine except when playing live e.guitar getting intermittent glitches in its audio (old Tascam FireOne firewire I/O, no way to update its driver since they abandoned the FireOne ages ago.)
- VERY slow app launches all around, especially after first morning start up. Chrome pages loading 5x slower than before on 10.6.8; some streaming slow downs, esp. on Netflix which takes Silverlight like a minute now to load up a show;
- Activity Monitor: I'm at like 3.5-3.9 of my 4G with just a coupla apps running at a time.
Here's what I've tried so far:
- Disk Utility repair permissions
- reset PRAM (before reading here that's not a good idea anymore)
- did a full Time Machine restore (    "                 "               " )
- disabled all but one start up item, a Native Instruments helper type app I wasn't sure about
- cleared some caches, can't remember which (per a 10-star user here on improving performance)
- Deleted tons of old/unneeded apps and files, my boot drive now less than half full.
- uninstalled several third-party plugins
- thinned out my iPhoto library extensively, still the same SPOD after launch; then reindexed the thumbnails.
- Sophos Anti-Virus Mac Home, turned off all realtime updating/scanning (left its web page/content realtime filter on though)
Here's my EtreCheck info, & again thanks in advance for anyone's help here!!!

  • Slow performance since installing Mavericks

    Our Mac is used by four seperate users with their own log in's.  Since installation of Mavericks the performance for two of the users has slowed dramatically to where they get "beachball" for minutes at a time.
    The other two users don't experience any slow down at all.
    Where do I begin to look for issues and/or ways to speed things up?

  • Slow computer since updating to maverick

    My computer is so slow since I got maverick. System preferences stops responding when loading photos for screensaver.

    System preferences stops responding when loading photos for screensaver.
    Back up all data. Quit System Preferences if it's running.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:

    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...

    Test. If the problem is resolved. recreate your settings in the Screen Saver tab.

    You've got some Cisco VPN software. Do you need that? You might want to make sure that it is up to date and compatible with 10.9. The same for Google Drive and DropBox.
    Try a Safe Boot, which will disable all the third-party extensions. Does that improve matters?

  • I can send email but cannot receive it since updating to Mavericks

    Since updating to Mavericks on my Imac & MacBook I cannot receive email in Mac’s Mail - I can however send email.
    In connection Doctor I am getting the green dot saying my SMTP (outgoing) is working just fine and I am getting a red dot saying my POP (incoming) is not working.
    I know the settings are just fine! as Mail works perfectly in my iPhone and I can both send and receive email. I have tried resetting a hundred times to no avail. I am on own VPS server with Names Co (in the UK).
    What I do know:
    1) My email settings are correct - despite mail saying it cannot connect to the server becuase of number of issues such as timeout or wrong password or wrong settings ( I get various answers in connection doctor and system preferences/accounts)
    2) My VPS server and website is just fine.
    3) My ISP is up and running fine and does not block any ports.
    What I have tried doing:
    1) Changed passwords - all work fine in my iphone.
    2) Tried activating and deactivating my account.
    3) Tried using SSL Port with password on and off - tried the other ports.
    Help is greatly appreciated

    Hi sturmherr
    I am using defualt ports 25, 465, 587 for outgoing
    and SMTP 995 for incoming using SSL with password (have tried without)
    These are the settings that I used to use and it all worked fine and is still working fine in my iphone.
    I have tried all the outgoing ports.
    Do you have any other suggestions?

  • My Mac has gone really slow since upgrading to Mavericks. Any suggestions as to how to speed things up again?

    My Mac has gone really slow since upgrading to Mavericks. Any suggestions as to how to speed things up again?

    First, back up all data immediately unless you already have a current backup. If you can't back up, stop here. Do not take any of the steps below.
    Step 1
    This diagnostic procedure will query the log for messages that may indicate a system issue. It changes nothing, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'GPU |hfs: Ru|I/O e|find tok|n Cause: -|NVDA\(|pagin|timed? ?o' | tail | awk '/:/{$4=""; print}' | open -ef
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key.
    The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Normally the command will produce no output, and the window will be empty. If the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window) has anything in it, stop here and post it — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the TextEdit window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
    Step 2
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    Run Software Update. If there's a firmware update, install it.
    If you're booting from an aftermarket SSD, see whether there's a firmware update for it.
    If you have a portable computer, check the cycle count of the battery. It may be due for replacement.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane. See whether there's any change.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
    If you have a MacBook Pro with dual graphics, disable automatic graphics switching in the Energy Saverpreference pane for better performance at the cost of shorter battery life.
    Step 3
    When you notice the problem, launch the Activity Monitor 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. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
    Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
    Select All Processes from the View menu or the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
    Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for User, System, and Idle at the bottom of the window.
    Select the Memory tab. What value is shown in the bottom part of the window for Swap used?
    Next, select the Disk tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in andWrites out.)
    Step 4
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

    So, about a week ago my macbook pro started having lots of issues: wifi connectivity, slow performance, sound issues, spotlight wasn't working. After going through the issues with apple support, they decided the best course of action was to erase the hard drive and do a reinstall. Since I have a recent backup this seemed like a good enough option. They were kind enough to send me a copy of the snow leopard disk to do the install since we couldn't get it to complete through the disk utility. Not sure why, since it says we are fully connected, it just never completed.
    Anyway, so now that you have the background here is the new issue. The macbook pro keeps spitting out the disk I'm trying to install from. Disk utility and using the 'Startup Disk' function from the apple menu doesn't read the disk.
    Can anyone suggest a solution to this vexing problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    Jeremy.Laurin,
    have you tried agb76’s approach here?

  • Running the latest OS Mavericks.  8 gigs of RAM.  150 gigs free space on computer.  Problem: since upgrading to Maverick almost all applications are slow to open, and frequently many 'spinning ball' interruptions.  Repaired disk permissions - no help.

    I'm running the latest OS 10.9.1 Mavericks (late 2009 iMac).  8 gigs of RAM.  150 gigs free space on computer.  Since upgrading to Mavericks, apps are slow to open, with frequent "spinning ball" interruptions.  Repaired Disk Permissions - no help.  Repaired disk - no problems indicated.  Did notice in going to Utilities/Console that there are 4000 messages over a 3 day period.  Any suggesstions how to correct this sudden slow down, other than psychiatric help?

    Yes.  Many messages show up when I try to use Office for Mac 08.  Here's a sample (and one that repeats over and over again):
    2/11/14 1:01:16.577 PM Microsoft Word[1912]: OTAtomicAdd32 is deprecated and will be removed soon.  Please stop using it.
    Also getting many msgs when I use Chrome.

  • Time machine backups have slowed considerably since my installation of Mavericks -- why?

    Ever since installation of Mavericks, time machine backups have slowed to a crawl.  The message preparing backup used to to take 10 seconds to a minute, now it takes 5 minutes.  The status of the backup used to show 10mb's of 80 mb's backed up, and take under 1 minute, now it takes 5 minutes.  Finally cleaning up notice, and the time to clean up has increased significantly.  My backups go to an external HD (7200rpm) connected vis firewire 800, that has approx 180 gigabytes available of its 1 terrabybyte capacity. 

    I upgraded to Mountain Lion a few weeks ago. Everything was fine with Time Machine until a few of days ago.
    Same problem others described: extremely slow, taking hours to back up just a few MB.
    I verified the Time Capsule drive and my Mac hard drive - no problems found.
    I then erased the Time Capsule and started Time Machine. It did the full backup in a fairly reasonable amount of time (several hours, but not unexpectedly long).
    When it started its first incremental backup, it reverted to the same problem: extremely slow, but it did finish eventually.
    I then shut down the Mac and restarted (power cycled) the Time Capsule. Then I started up the Mac and told Time Machine to back up now. It backed up 30+ MB in just a few minutes, so it seems back to normal. We'll see how it goes when the next scheduled backup starts up.
    But you might try rebooting the Time Capsule (and your Mac).
    By the way, when it was in the middle of the extremely slow backup, I disabled Norton Anti-virus and it didn't seem to speed it up any. But I left it disabled after I rebooted the Time Capsule and had a successful incremental backup, so I'm not sure yet if Norton is a factor.

  • Macbook Pro 13' (Late 2011) STILL really slow since updating to Mavericks

    So I've seen a lot of discussions about the same issue and some have threads have been solved, yet others remain unknown. I have the same problem as others that stated they have experience something similar to my case. Just fyi though, that my computer was already really slow prior to upgrading to Mavericks (on Mountain Lion). That was when I decided to do a clean install of Mountain Lion and everything was snappier than ever. It wasn't long until Mavericks came out and I instantly did an upgrade but everything suddenly started slowing down again and it's getting worse. I hope someone can help me out here, thank you.

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can read it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal 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. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
    12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start Time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

  • I have always heard that Macs are less likely to get infected with a virus.  My computer has been running much slower since I installed Maverick.  Just not sure what the problem might be.  Is there a way for me to run a diagnosis?

    I have always heard that Macs are less likely to get infected with a virus.  My computer has been running much slower since I installed Maverick.  Just not sure what the problem might be.  Is there a way for me to run a diagnosis?

    Some have found relief just by reinstalling, but it is more than likely incompatible third-party applications that slow it down.
    You will have to investigate to see what it is.
    Open Activity Monitor and see if anything is using a lot of CPU% or Memory. If they are, check to see if there is an update for them.
    Another place to look is the Console. See if anything is logging repeating messages with throttling and/or respawn in the All Messages list.
    Sometimes it is not that easy to root out the problems, but if you have anything that purported to clean, protect, optimize, maintain, or flush your system, then that is likely the cause.

  • Since upgrading to Mavericks, Mail is extremely slow to load preview pane or show email when mailbox is double-clicked. Is this a known issue?

    Since upgrading to Mavericks, Mail is extremely slow to load the preview pane or show email when mailbox is double-clicked. Is this a known issue? Or is there a solution to this issue?

    Hi AngieLynch,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you're seeing some unexpected behavior in Mail.
    Before troubleshooting on your computer, I'd strongly recommend backing up your data to an external hard drive with Time Machine, if you haven't already. This article can help with setting up Time Machine:
    Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427
    Next, try creating a new user account on your computer. You can add your email account to Mail in the new user account. If Mail is more responsive in the new user account, then Mavericks is working fine and the behavior is caused by conflicts in your own Mail or user account. 
    These articles walk you through creating a new user and setting up Mail:
    OS X Mountain Lion: Create a new user account (applies to Mavericks, too.)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11468

    Best,

  • Slow networking since Mavericks install

    I've been experiencing intermittent networking slowness with my MacBook pro since I installed Mavericks (previously had Mountain Lion). Where before I never noticed any slowdowns, now many web pages (like google.com) stall for several seconds before loading, and LAN operations (file sharing to a Mac OS X 10.6 server machine, Windows 7 boxes, etc.) are all rather pokey. Speedtest.net shows 1-3 Mb/s it's internet test, another wifi connected computer (linux) tested immediately after gets 12+ Mb/s (My provider is comcast).
    Nothing external has changed in my setup, and this started happening immediately after the Mavericks install.
    I do have a thunderbolt -> ethernet adapter that I'll be testing at some point, but that requires running a new ethernet cable. Also, I don't know if it's relevant, but I also have Parallels 8 installed (Win7), and it's running most of the time (I'll be upgrading that shortly).
    Has anyone else seen this?
    Cheers,
    Seth

    Yeah, I'm using Apple hardware all around (aside from the keyboard).
    Thanks for the tip about the logs. I found a leftover VPN service which I removed. (Cisco OpenConnect, installed with MacPorts). Unfortunately, removing it didn't help the wifi troubles, but I also don't need it anymore.
    Other than that the interesting stuff is related to parallels. When I turn it on, it says:
    10/27/13 3:58:23.156 PM Parallels[11646]: Starting Parallels networking...
    10/27/13 3:58:23.209 PM Parallels[11653]: Parallels networking sucessfully started
    10/27/13 3:58:23.245 PM prl_naptd[11675]: Starting Parallels Network Daemon 10/27/13 3:58:23.297 PM
    Then when I turn it off, it says:
    10/27/13 4:01:14.061 PM prl_naptd[11675]: Exiting Parallels Network Daemon
    10/27/13 4:01:14.181 PM Parallels[11787]: Parallels Networking was stopped
    10/27/13 4:01:14.188 PM Parallels[11790]: Unloading kernel extension prl_netbridge.kext
    I would suspect parallels more, except that parallels is also there when connected via ethernet. It's possible that their kernel extension could be only affecting wifi, but that doesn't seem likely. I'll find out for sure when I upgrade later this week.

  • Ever since I installed MAVERICK, nothing now works, Flash Player won't run, printer works but scanner will not and the computer runs so slow.  Any help anywhere?

    Ever since I installed MAVERICK, nothing now works, Flash Player won't run, printer works but scanner will not and the computer runs so slow.  Any help anywhere?

    wqn02h, first thing I would do is use Disk utility to repair permissions. Once this is done. Make sure you have the latest versions of the software you use. Also, check the manufacter of your printer/scanner for updated software. If they don't have updated software there are 3rd party alternatives that will work.
