Another "EBS running slow" question
Hi.
Users complained last week that system running slow. Many users trying to do quarter-end work and closing.
We checked the following to get some meat on the bones:
OS: top / iostat command
DB: alert log (for ORA- errors), tablespace space limits.
Apps: Apache log, and logging on to EBS to see forms / cc managers.
At the end we were unable to get a proper, transparent picture of the enivironment. Yes, there were waits at the IO level, but nothing huge. We were unable to see what was happening.
Did we miss anything? Is there anything else we could have checked?
Cheers,
DA
Ok sorry for missing the user name...
Ok, the following is returned: (21962 was the PID I used and appltest was the user):
SQL> select
2 d.user_name "appltest",

So, I am not sure how to take this from here. I entered one PID but it seems to be shared by a number of users /sessions? Also these sessions seems to have been running for some time (for over a week in some cases).
What is the next step from here? I am not sure why we have NAISBIN 801, then GUEST 854.
Thanks again.

i bought imac new in 2007 (when it went towerless) it has safari. runs slow, the color disk shows during the. bought either leopard or snow leopard, it was in 2010. when i tried to load, it states not enough memory. any suggestions?? i just would like to get it a little more up to date

so add RAM, then possibly upgrade to the leopard?
Open up your Finder window & check the bottom of the window in the middle. It will tell you how much HD space you have left.
===============
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305454 Mac OS X 10.4: FileVault - "There isn't enough space on your hard disk..." alert
Empty the trash!
Open up your application folder & go through all your apps. Trash all the apps you no longer want and/or use.
An easier way to do this is to open the Application folder in list view & press the Command+j keys.
In the the dialog that appears, click the "This Window Only" button & the "Calculate All Sizes" check box.
Wait a bit until your file & folder sizes have all been calculated, then click the "Size" column to sort your apps from the fattest to the most anorexic.
Get rid of all your photo files you don't want and/or need. Same goes for those pics off the websites you downloaded (gifs, jpegs, etc.). Or transfer/move them all to a photo/movie storage site like ImageShack and Photobucket, 2 of the most popular FREE storage sites.
Get rid of all your video & music files you no longer view and/or listen too. Especially, if you already have the actual CD/DVDs or you can later redownload from a website. Or transfer them all to a FREE video/movies and/or music storage site.
Use Spotlight to make sure you got rid of everything. You can even trash directly from Spotlight!
Drag what you don't want and/or need to the trash. Better yet, download this neat little shareware app *demo* called AppZapper. It basically does all the work for you by not only trashing the apps but the apps preference files, caches & all its associated files.
Another software that does the above is AppDelete. Best of all this software is free!
Burn what you want and/or need onto CDs or DVDs. Not everyone has the luxury of purchasing an external HD and/or the system requirements for iCloud to store their "stuff.”
Dropbox is a free storage facility software.
You can check with your ISP to see if they offer *free* storage space. Most if not all do now-a-days. There are thousands if not millions of *free* storage facilities on the web also. Use your favorite search engine to search them out as they come in different storage sizes to fit your needs & wants.
Check for duplicate fonts.
Applications>Font Book
Select “All Fonts”
If you see any “black dots” next to any fonts this mean you have duplicates and/or multiple versions of these fonts.
To clean this up, select a “black dotted” font or the Apple + *click* to select multiple dotted fonts;
Edit>Resolve>Duplicates.
What the above does is turns off the duplicates & multiple version fonts. Not delete them.
More than likely the “extras” were installed by other programs and/or other users.
Clear out font caches
Use FontNuke. It does all the work for you. And, best of all it’s *FREE*.
Printer Drivers
Get rid of all the printer drivers you don’t need & use except the ones for your *current* printer(s)/scanner(s).
HD>Library>Printers Folder
If you accidently threw something out that you needed for your printer/scanner it can be easily obtained from the manufacturer’s website and/or from the CD that came w/the printer/scanner.
Garage Band
Has about 1GB of loops stored. Get rid of some some them. You surely don’t use, like and/or need them all.
HD>Library>Audio/Apple Loops>Apple>Apple Loops For GarageBand
Or just get rid of the Garage Band app altogether if you don’t use it.
Get rid of extra languages
Strip your computer down to your “native” tongue.
You can do this with a *FREE* utility called Monolingual. Another app that apparently does all the work for you. I’ve never used it. However, a lot of users here swear by & recommend it highly.
However, there is a warning for *native English speakers*. Make sure you keep BOTH English and English (United States).

Mac 10.5.8 is running slow and programs are disappearing
Hi guys,
I actually have more than one problem with my Mac:
For one it is running slow especially when using Firefox and Office at the same time often resulting in me having to force quit the programs because they are not responding.
Lately applications are disappearing. First Stickies which is really! bad, because, stupid as I am, I put important info on them and did not make a backup. I tried to restore them via Time Machine but find nothing under ~Library/.StickiesDatabase, ...Application Support... or ...Preferences/com.apple.Stickies.plist
Then Preview disappeared which, luckily i could restore via Time Machine.
And now iCal looks different in dock (the white square surrounding the actual date disappeared) so I am guessing this soon will be gone as well.
Another info that probably is important: my battery is swollen so generally I use the Mac without the battery
Do you think this is a virus? Or maybe 10.5.8. is just too old a version? Do you think an upgrade to at least 10.6. would help or rather worsen things? And is it worth it to invest in an upgrade, a new battery, a complete check-up or should I just wait until the poor thing dies and get a new one (which would be really painful)?
As you can see I am a clueless user, and I am sorry for any stupid questions in advance and thankful for any support!thank you for the reply. i checked the smart status which said disk is veryfied. i ran the repair anyways. this is the protoco (i dont really know what to make of it)l:

Macbook Pro runs slow after upgrade
I have just upgraded to Mountain Lion 10.8.3 (from 10.6.8) on my 2011 i7 Macbook Pro.
My computer now runs slower than ever. Boot up takes forever. Shut down takes for ever. I get constant beach ball.
I am shocked at how horrible this OS is and though there are some "nifty" features, it runs so poorly It's hard to enjoy them.
So my question is, is this a common issue with Mountain Lion or is it a coincidence and perhaps something is wrong with my computer?
Thanks!First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Reset the System Management Controller.
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.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
Otherwise, take the steps below when you notice the slowdown.
Step 1
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 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 System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
Next, select the Disk Activity tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
Step 2
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 (command-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. -
Why is my safari running slow after updating my mac?
My safari is running slow after completing a software update. I have cleared the cache. It did not help.
Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. Any change?
If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab in the Preferences window and uncheck the box marked
Stop plug-ins to save power
Any change?
Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
Log out and log back in. Any change?
Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test. Any change?
If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
Again, if only Safari is involved, open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Safari, if it's checked. Any change?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference? -

Macbook Pro running slow will reinstalling OS X speed it up?
My MacBook Pro is running slow and i would like to reinstall OS X on it and was wondering if that would speed it up? I recently added 4gb of ram in replace of the 2gb of ram and that helped out but its still not as fast as when it was brand new.
my questions are:
1) would reinstalling OS X speed up my Macbook Pro?
2) I currently have time machine on, after reinstalling OS X could I revert back to my most recent backup and have all my personal data on there minus all the junk that slowed down my Mac? or would it be the exact same thing as the current OS X now?
3) what are some ways to speed up my Macbook Pro?
my specs:
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: MacBookPro4,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 3 MB
Memory: 4 GB
Bus Speed: 800 MHz
System Version: Mac OS X 10.6.2 (10C540)
Kernel Version: Darwin 10.2.0
Boot Volume: Macintosh HD
Boot Mode: Normal1) would reinstalling OS X speed up my Macbook Pro?
Possibly, but it might be overkill, and it might fail to help altogether. Without knowing what the source of the problem is, it's impossible to say.
2) I currently have time machine on, after reinstalling OS X could I revert back to my most recent backup and have all my personal data on there minus all the junk that slowed down my Mac?
You can certainly choose to restore only certain things from your backup, though without knowing what is slowing down your machine, it's hard to say what you should and shouldn't restore. I'd advise a bit more troubleshooting. Also, don't assume that one single backup is enough... things happen. Have at a minimum two backups, made with two separate programs. See my [Mac Backup Guide|http://www.reedcorner.net/thomas/guides/backups> for more information.
3) what are some ways to speed up my Macbook Pro?
First, check your hard drive space. If you don't have about 10% (give or take) free, that could be the problem.
Second, open Activity Monitor and check the System Memory tab. If your page ins and your page outs are within an order of magnitude of one another, you may be pushing your machine harder than the RAM you have installed can support.
Also in Activity Monitor, look for a process that seems to always be using too much processor time. Look at the CPU tab and see what the % idle value is. When you're not doing anything particularly demanding, it should be a high number... mine's hovering between 92-97% with Mail, Safari, FileMaker Pro and Activity Monitor running, plus a couple third-party background processes (like Quicksilver).
Try repairing the hard drive (not permissions... that's not likely to help much). A slightly damaged hard drive can cause all kinds of problems.
Run [Apple Hardware Test|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1509] to verify your hardware. Also, since you recently installed new RAM and AHT is not the best tool for checking RAM, try running [Rember|http://www.kelleycomputing.net/rember> to test the RAM. (Note that I'm not 100% sure about Snow Leopard compatibility of Rember.) -
can someone tell me why my wi-fi runs so slow on my new iphone 4S 16GB? i have a ipod and wf-fi works really fast on it so what gives?
Hi Lawrence Finch, i'm merely trying to avoid this thread growing into several pages with community members posting silly solutions (US network provider on a similar thread) which is not a solution but rather: counterproductive. Sorry if you took it personally.
All i want is facts like Carlfromhayden above, which i thank for his comments but his solution does not work.
Regardless if my iPhone is running at 50 kbps or 50 Mbps, the question is: "my iphone is NOT running as fast as when i first unboxed it (running probably about half the speed) BOTH on 3G or wifi (i.e. so it's not a broadband issue).
So in the interest of community members trying to find a quick resolution to why their iPhone 4s is running slow, and not trolling through pages and pages of wasteful comments, is there another solution that i can try to speed up my iPhone 4s? -
NEW macbook pro running slow ~ i hate the rainbow pinwheel
i have a two-week old MacBook Pro.
it has been running slow ever since I got it.
the apple genius bar guy pulled up my activity monitor and said it was normal.
how can a constant rainbow pinwheel be normal???
because i use it for business, i had to download Outlook and now i can barely get anything to run without the stupid rainbow pinwheel.
it has 4GB or memory. do I need to add another 4GB or is there something else I can do?
i can't believe how this "powerful machine" feels like i'm trudging in the mud.
thanks for your help.Ok, so I'm pretty new to this and want to make sure I answer each of your questions.
Right now, my computer is behaving (of course)... so I might need to do this again when I've got a pinwheel or beach ball or whatever they call that spinning rainbow torture device. So, the numbers below reflect my computer without the pinwheel (probably not helpful for troubleshooting)....
What is it, and what is the process? ~ Outlook 20.6%
Also post the values for % User, 4.89%
% System, and 8.13%
% Idle at the bottom of the window. 85.03%
What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs ~ 443.7
and Swap used? 183.7

Hi,
A few people have asked this question, my macbook is running very slow and the mouse spinning circle comes up quite a lot. I am unsure of why it is doing this.
I have attached a copy of the EtreCheck I have done on my system.
Can you please have a look and see if you can see if there is anything wrong, as I am unsure of what I am looking at.
Thanks for your help

Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
I never install system modifications myself, and except as stated in this comment, I don't know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find that information.
Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickMyMac” (a hypothetical example.) First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickmymac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickMyMac.” If not, open “BrickMyMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button. The uninstaller might also be accessed by clicking the Customize button, if there is one.
Back up all data before making any changes.
You will generally have to restart the computer in order to complete an uninstallation. Until you do that, there may be no effect, or unpredictable effects.
If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software. -
System freezing/running slower
I've been having some difficulties with my macbook as of late: in the past three days, chrome has frozen about 7 times and force quitting made the entire screen freeze (so all i could do was using the shut-down button). I've also noticed that the bootup is slower than usual. Generally speaking, the whole thing has been running slower and slower for a while now. i get the rainbow wheel of doom on a frequent basis. (also, my fan is quite loud and i can hear a rattling sound sometimes)
here is what seems to have happened before everything froze:

i've verified disk permissions, verified disk, did a hardware check (everything normal) and reset NVRAM/PRAM. I didn't even know any of these things existed until a few days ago, so if i'm honest i have no idea what i'm doing.
(also, with disk permissions i got "Permissions differ on “System/Library/PreferencePanes/Displays.prefPane”; should be drwxr-xr-x ; they are lrwxr-xr-x "" and "
should be drwxr-xr-x ; they are -rw-r--r-". I'm not sure whether that is important.)
if anyone could tell me what is going on / what i could do to stop my computer from being slow/crashing, i'd be immensely thankful! (it's also a new model; from january 2012)Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
▹ Restart
from the menu bar. -
MacBook Pro Stalls/Running slow since Mavericks Installation
On the advice of the more experienced here is a new thread.
Since installing Mavericks my MBP has gone from pretty much an instant response to requests, to stalling, the spinning pinwheel, longer startup and shutdown times, as well as slower access to websites (Chrome and Safari, though Safari appears slower).
I have been advised to run EtreCheck when I first joined a post regarding the same problem. I posted the results and was advised to work through some of the issues. This is the initial test result and the very much appreciated advice.
NOTE - EXTENSIVE TEXT TO FOLLOW.
I don't have a specific fix from your report, but I can point out what other users have had issues with.

Red is the items I'd look at these are mostly 'system level' - they can alter a lot in the OS. Check the developers website, update or remove the apps if the developer doesn't say it supports 10.9 or if you can live without them.
Soundflower is out of date & it is a 'kernel extension', the kernel is the core of the OS - you don't want any old code running here.
The installer has a removal tool too https://code.google.com/p/soundflower/ so update or remove it if you don't use it.
Update or remove Paragon's NTFS tool, it is running at a system level & it's background jobs seem to be in a 'problem state', it also has something running in the kernel.
Adobe has an updater running, try to ensure Adobe's apps are all up to date, just incase they have stopped checking. Repeat with Google's apps, just launch the apps & look in the 'App menu' or the Help menu for updates. These companies tend to reinstall the updaters if you try to delete them, so there it little you can do but keep the apps updated.
It's odd that all your User Launch Agents: are not loaded, these are background jobs that start on login (if they are in a loaded state). The same principle applies, update or remove the related apps if they are not needed.
CleanMyMac is a concern - there are lots of posts here claiming it can break the OS - it can help you to remove files that are installed by Apple which is not the best idea. I am unconvinced that running 'maintenance utilities' all the time is a good idea, however the app removal tool may be OK for cases where a developer doesn't have an uninstaller. 'Cleaner apps' use RAM & can spend time scanning files which can slow other tasks. Search here for varied opinions on CleanMyMac. I also use ClamXAV, ensure that is upto date & so check it's engine & rules are current.
The purple items are 'user level' items (run on login of your account).
There is a simple way to see if your issues are because of 'user level' items, create a new test user account & login as that user. If the Mac is stable you can assume it is something within your 'user items'.
Check that you need the Login Items running every time you login. They are listed in System Preferences> Users & groups > select your account… login items tab.
You appear to have 3 LogMeIn internet plugins installed - is Safari behaving OK or running slow? I would consider removing most plugins & then installing them as you need them. You can look inside /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ and ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ to remove them manually.
~/Library is your 'home library' Use the Finders Go Menu > Open Folder… and enter ~/Library to reveal it. Apple hid this Library folder.
I'd be tempted to remove the Java applet plugin - old Java is a real secuity risk & Safari has probably disabled this for you already.
There seems to be 2 Facebook plugins installed (probably inside your ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/). Remove the oldest one & look for the newest release. Update the Safari Extension if it needs it too.
The Preference Panes are installed in /Library/PreferencePanes/ and ~/Library/PreferencePanes/. Open System prefs & launch each third party pref pane (the bottom rows) & check for updates if possible. These also have an ability to modify the OS, so any errors could effect everything. You can usually right click (or ctrl+click) to remove them from the preferences (it removes them from the OS, but may leave any libraries or extra tools behind - see if the developer has removal instructions).
I see you have Plex installed, does this run very often? I find it can drag a Mac to a slow crawl when it is indexing. I suspect Connect360 may do similar things, but I don't really know for sure what it does .
MenuTab for Facebook seems to be doing something with RAM & CPU, update or remove if you don't need it.
That may all be daunting, but it should help. Start with the system level items, and then look at updating the other items. You may find things improve after a cleanup & a reboot.
This was extremely helpful and I have gone as far as my knowledge will allow for now. I did make a bootable clone of the main HDD prior to doing anything, and now there seems to be little improvment following the suggestions made. Also along the way MacFuse was deleted and well as Flip4Mac and NTFS.
Things are far from perfect though and the MBP still stalls and is performing very poorly.

Also need to mention that the login items have all been disabled (though showing in these results).
Any advice on these specific speed related issues and how to return to the "old ways" would be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

I would un-install CleanMyMac. It has caused problems for others and in some cases has gone so far as to wreck their system.

Macbook Pro 2011 - running slow after installing Yosemite
Can anyone help me - my late 2011 Macbook Pro is running very slow since installing Yosemite. Also my Microsoft Office for Excel is not allowing me to type into cells - I can copy and paste but not add new text.
I have run the Etre diagnostic app (as suggested on another thread) and these are the results I get. Can anyone help - or do I have to uninstall Yosemite and how would I do this?

MacBook Pro running slow and lagging during app switches/start
I mean, it's really getting bad. I have to force quit repeatedly and then by some miracle - something takes and the program opens. Most of the time this happens with Photoshop and Firefox (which is what I use most often). PS does not have a bunch of add-ons running or installed. It's pretty much CS3 factory.
I ran Disk Utility yesterday - during the verify disc, it told me to boot from the install disc to fix the 2 errors it found. I backed everything up and I did. Ran all the verifies and repairs from the start disc.
Still running slow and by this I mean when I open an application it takes a ridiculously long time to open the double-clicked document or just the program itself to get to a new doc. I noticed it again this morning with Excel (which is something I don't usually leave open and running).
What else I have done, which helped but just a smidgen ... was to remove all the extra fonts (and I did have thousands) in Font Book. I also removed Font Book entirely because it was another program that was locking up and needing force quit all the time ... and I just plain don't like it. So I installed Suitcase Fusion and only have the bare minimum needed in there (which kind of bothers me since I am used to have thousands on hand that just need to be turned on or off - yes I know, I keep them all off unless they are absolutely needed). But I only have one set in the Suitcase (42 font family).
I got my laptop in Feb ... so this painfully slow and lagging stuff shouldn't be happening. It used to work great. I could have all the apps open, flipping between them, really getting things done.
Here's my comp info:
Version 10.6.4
Processor: 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory: 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
HD: 500gb but I have 345gb free
Any obvious things I am overlooking? Any suggestions on how to get this fairly new thing back up to speed?
Thanks!HI,
I also removed Font Book entirely because it was another program that was locking up and needing force quit all the time.
