All applications are opening/quitting very slowly or not at all.

Hi, I have a question about my MacBook Pro. Lately, when I've been opening or quitting different applications, they take several seconds to open, and they often say "Application not responding", and I have to force quit. I'm not sure what to do. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

A few tips you can try:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=DiskUtility/10.5/en/duh17.html
You can also boot from an installer disk, and run diskutility to repair the HD.
This article refers to starup troubles, but can also be used for other issues as well

If none of this helps, post back for other ideas.

When I write an email it responds very slowly or not at all. Can this be fixed?

Using firefox 10.0.1 when typing in email (Hotmail) it responds very slowly or not at all. This has happened for the past week. Before that time this was not a problem.

It MAY be that Adobe software slowness problems are caused by having a network
printer as default... with the cure being to always have a local printer as a
default (you don't have to USE it, just have it set to local as default) and
this may be accomplished by using an Adobe Generic Printer Driver

PDF files open very slowly or not at all.

I am experiencing an issue on a clients network where most pdf files open extremely slow or not at all. This issue is being experieced by both pc and mac uses, computers on and off the domain. Any one connected to the network. Has anyone seen an issue like this before. We are currently having Cisco troubleshoot the internet router but are not currently seeing any issues there. The isp has indicated that the circuit has tested cleanly. The issue is even seen when trying to download the pdf, it just seems to hang around 80-90 percent of the download.
Any help on this issue would be greatly appreceiated.

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 just used a firewire connection to transfer files from an older MAC to a newer MAC. My newer MAC has lost all that was on it, and all the applications are opening like they have never been used before and asking for Rosetta. Help!!!

I just used a firewire connection to transfer files from a PowerBook G4 to a MacBook Pro. The MacBook Pro has lost all that was on it, and all the applications are opening like they have never been used before and asking for Rosetta. How do I find all my files on the MacBook Pro, or undo what I have done???

IGNORE the last post: he thought you are using Lion or Mountain Lion.
Since you are using Snow Leopard, you need to install Rosetta. It can be found on your Snow Leopard Install DVD in the Options section.
Once installed all should be well again.
Also, if your computer is connected to the internet when the Dialog Box about PowerPC applications comes up, it MIGHT allow you to download Rosetta from the internet. There has been some discussion that Apple has discontined internet download of Rosetta into Snow Leopard.
Someone else will have to address your lost files problem.

I have Maverick installed and my mail, Safari, Mac App Store, and iMessages apps all say that they quit unexpectedly and will not open. Any suggestions?

I will check. Can the security update be installed if you can no longer open the Mac App Store app?
I was listening to the MacCast podcast and the host had a similar issue and did something similar to the link below. I am concerned that I may mess something up by doing this.

Thanks Ian! I see the other topics now, and I did the deauthorize thing, although it said this computer was not authorized (I know it was because I just bought songs on it.) So I authorized it again and now it works fine! Except now it says there are 3 computers authorized, I only have 2. I guess it thinks this computer is authorized twice now somehow? I hope this bug gets fixed.

When I run the Receiving interface i get an error that the period is not open. But all periods are open from Jun 14 through April 15.

I am running the following inserts and all periods are open but I still get this error in the po_interface_errors table.
"Error: Please enter a GL Date within an open inventory accounting period.
Cause:        You provided a GL date that is not within an open inventory accounting period.
Action:        Enter a date that is within an open period."
Here are the inserts.
INSERT INTO rcv_headers_interface

I went to Inventory > Setup > Organizations
but I do not see a place to open a period under an organization. If there is another place to go let me know.
I looked under calendars but that does not have anything to do with periods as far as I can tell.

Why don't tabs that are open on my iPhone appear in Show All Tabs on my MacBook Air?

When I select Show All Tabs in Safari 8.0.3 on an early 2014 MacBook Air, I see the tabs that are open on my iPad but not those that are open on my iPhone 6. I recently updated the phone to iOS 8.2. All my devices are connected to my iCloud account and Safari is checked in my iCloud settings on the phone. So I don't understand why the phone's open tabs no longer appear in Show All Tabs on the MacBook Air. The iPad is an iPad 2 and it's still running iOS 8.1.3. Am I right in guessing there's a problem with the iOS 8.2 update?

In most countries they will do so for a fee. US$199 for a 4S. It may just need a new battery, which Apple will install for about US$70.

All applications are not responding when wake from sleep.

All applications are not responding when Macbook pro wake from sleep,
the keyboard and touch pad are okay.
Why?
Thanks a lot.

I want to see if there's a service that may be preventing it from working properly when waking from sleep. To test this, we'll need to Disable all non-system-critical services to see if the issue occurs.
If it does not, that means one of those services that was disabled, is causing the issue.
If the touchscreen is still unresponsive after sleep with all of those non-critical services disabled, then it may be something with the registry or the hardware.
Here are the steps to disable non-critical services:
Windows + Q to bring up Search
Type 'msconfig' and press Enter
Click the Services Tab
Check the Hide All Microsoft Services box
Click the Disable All button
Click Apply and Restart
Once it restarts let it go into sleep mode and then wake it back up from sleep mode and test the touchscreen. Do this a couple of times, if you have time. (When you're done troubleshooting, you'll have to go back into msconfig and re-enable all of those non-critical services, apply and restart.)
Let me know the results when you get a chance, please

Web pages load slowly or not at all.

At least half the web pages I try to access load slowly or not at all, especially those I am accessing for the first time. This problem has been getting worse over the past few months. I ran the Wireless Diagnostics test, and it said there didn't seem to be a problem. I am using a Belkin G Wireless Router, and only use the MacBook Air at home. The PHY Mode is 802.11g. What should I do?

Try going to Speedtest.net (if you can ) and see what your speeds are. If they seem fine then try turing off or resetting your router. If that doesn't work it might be something with the Wi-Fi antena within the MacBook Air. Try connecting it via Ethernet.

Hi there, I have much files saved on pages ( ios ipad) , I just open it today and did not find .all the files !!!! Just 4!!! Taken in consider that I did not delete or making any wrong action. How I can return the lost files!!!! Help please
its very important files!

tis true
I know, I always do that but I was in a rush to get somewhere and I was relying on my thousand dollar Mac to do some kind of recovery or something. I know Microsoft always keeps temporary files (I think Mac does too, part of me asking here in this forum was for someone to tell me where I can find those files) and when you go to open Office Works then it gives you the option of opening the last recent documents, saved or not saved.
I usually copy paste into my emial just in case something goes wrong with the created document but I just didn't have the time to login and do all that My loss, you live and you learn, BUT still if ANYONE got any info on this, PLEASE DO CHIME IN *keeping the hope alive*
