Backups really slow after 10.5.5

All,
after the upgrade to 10.5.5 TM (I have a 1Gb TC) became really, really slow. It takes just a few minutes to start the backup, but then it takes ages to complete it. Now after almost 3 hours it is still at 537Kb out of 1,9Gb.
Is that normal ? I saw in other posts that TM requires a deep analysis after the upgrade, but since it appears it has taken few minutes to prepare and now is very slow to execute, what's going on ?
Any suggestion on how to speed it up is welcome.

After almost 1 full day to complete the first backup after the upgrade, it is now back to normal speed.

My macbook pro is running really slow after upgrade to Mavericks

my macbook pro is running really slow after upgrading to Mavericks....any ideas?

OS X Mavericks: If your Mac runs slowly
The above link is not very useful, so if it doesn't help read on.
There are many potential reasons that a Mac may be running slower than expected, but more information is required to begin troubleshooting, much more.
Back up your documents and everything else important to you before proceeding. It is premature to conclude your hard disk is failing, but the symptoms you describe may presage an impending disk failure, and you should have backups anyway.
To help determine the possible causes of this behaviour read the following. None of what follows is intended to fix anything, but it will provide the additional information required to advance troubleshooting:
Boot OS X Recovery by holding ⌘ and r (two fingers) while you start your Mac. At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red.
When it finishes restart your Mac and test again for operation. If it's still not behaving as you expect it should, please post the results of EtreCheck in accordance with the following instructions:
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:

Etrecheck will be in your Downloads folder. Open it from there. You may see the following dialog box:
Click Open - etresoft contributes to this forum frequently and can be considered a trustworthy developer.
It 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” or anything else that may appear in red.
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.
After completing the above please determine if the problems also occur in "Safe Mode":
Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
You must disable FileVault before you can start your Mac in Safe Mode.
Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
Merely starting your Mac in Safe Mode is not intended to resolve the problem, it's to observe its performance without certain additional components.
To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.
System performance problems for reasons that cannot be isolated to any other cause justify an SMC reset. Be sure to read the procedure carefully and follow all the steps exactly as written, even if they seem inapplicable or trivial.

Macbook pro runs really slow after sleep mode

My MBP ( MacBook Pro (13-inch, medio 2012), 2,5 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB), runs very slow after sleep mode. I notice that when I wake it up, my memory usage is nearly 8 GB. After a restart it is back no a normal level, between 2 and 5 GB depending on how many programs I am running. Any ideas what causes this? My IOS is Yosemite 10.10.2
Kind regards

Hi Japib

Why is my ipad2 really slow after updating to IOS 6.1.2

Why is my ipad2 really slow after updating to IOS 6.1.2

Try this.
Quit all apps completely and reboot the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent 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.
Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

My MacBook Pro is REALLY slow after a week of running Yosemite perfectly

I have a MacBook Pro (about 3 years old) and I have never had any problems with it.
When Yosemite was released I updated and my MacBook ran perfectly and faster then before for a little over a week. Then all of a sudden it became SO incredibly slow. There is a waiting time on everything that has to do with a computer; from when I make a keystroke to the letter actually pops up on the screen, when I click an icon to launch a program, and so - I think you get the picture. Always the **** rainbow circle.
I have searched so many forums online and tried a lot of different things such as re-indexing spotlight, the "Hold down the left shift, option and control keys together with the power button-trick", various "sudo" commands in terminal, cleaning out junk (not in a very structured matter, just old files I didn't need anymore). To be honest I have no idea what I am doing, I just try whatever the smart people in the forums suggest.
I am lucky to have very recently been gifted a brand new MacBook Pro retina bla bla bla, which I am writing this from now, so it's not really an emergency situation. It's just really annoying to have a MacBook I can't use and that also has ALL of my previous work and programs on it.
SO here's another question: I would just really like to back my old MacBook up using Time Machine but as the MacBook is REALLY SLOW so is the back up process. At first it was stuck on "preparing" but I figured it was because my 500GB TM external harddrive was too small, so I bought a new 1TB external harddrive. Right now my old MacBooks is performing a back up and has passed the "preparing" stage, but after around 20 hours it has no time estimation and has only backed up "1.28 GB of 98.29 GB" and I feel like this is WAY too ineffective and really shouldn't take that long. I cant wait 100 days for this thing to back up ?!?!?!?!
So basically I have a seriously slow MacBook Pro, so slow it actually cannot be used and so slow it cannot back up.
I tried using Migrant Assistant via bluetooth to my new MacBook, but as you probably have guessed - over 24 hours later it was still stuck, and I also had my doubts because I thought if the slow, demonic MacBook would simply just infect and possess my new, pure, virgin MacBook.
So this was probably confusing.
To sum it up:
- I am a girl and I am a technical neanderthal <3
- I have 2 MacBooks; one slow, one brand new - both running up-to-date Yosemite and other updates are on fleek
- It would be ideal for me to use Migrant Assistant to set my new Macbook to what I'm used to - can this be done without screwing up my new MacBook?
- I can't seem to get TM working on my old one - can I bring my iPhoto and iTunes library to safety manually (like my other folders)?
- I have not been a good girl, and that means my latest TM back up was from April 2014, can I just run this when I have rescued everthing and then it might not be as slow?
I really don't want to just wipe it completely, as I don't want to lose the programs I have installed - it's just such a hassle to reinstall and codes and what not.
Extra info if it's necessary to anyone:
I have monitored the CPU% for some time in the Activity Monitor and when literally no programs but the Activity Monitor is open and the CPU% of free CPU is 98% the computer is STILL ----------- SO --------------- SLOooooooooow..... ( just to clarify I have checked if there's random program that takes up all the CPU; there's not). Also I have no clue what CPU is so, if I have used it in a weird way in these sentences, please forgive me.
Product:
MacBook Pro (13", primo 2011)

Processor: 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5

"shared memory" : 20.4 MB
"private memory" : 10.6 MB
I have no idea what any of this means or if it has any significance, but it said that I should include it.
Also - my battery has been telling me "service battery" for a LONG time and then it switched to "replace soon" som time ago. Can't really see what this has to do with anything but whatever.
I really really really hope that someone can (and want to) help me. It's not that I don't want to take it to any Mac-certified store, it's just I live in Denmark and the people who work at these stores always just say that they can "wipe it clear" so it's "as good as new" for a 100 bucks. We don't have Genius Bars and stuff..... I would really be so happy if ANYONE have just ANY solution to what would be a good idea to do now.
THANK YOU SO MUCH in advance
Anne Katrine

Also - my battery has been telling me "service battery" for a LONG time and then it switched to "replace soon" som time ago. Can't really see what this has to do with anything but whatever.
That could conceivably explain all the problems you're describing. Replacing a Mac's battery should not be postponed since a failed battery will cause other problems to occur. It is also possible that its hard disk has failed, which means the information on it may soon become unrecoverable.
... my latest TM back up was from April 2014, can I just run this when I have rescued everthing and then it might not be as slow?
If that Time Machine backup remains intact, it may be the only viable means of recovering that Mac's information. I suggest you do not attempt to restore its contents to your ailing Mac.
Given that you are having trouble creating a newer Time Machine backup you should stop using that Mac immediately and have it serviced as soon as you are able. Do not take it to anyone other than Apple or a service facility authorized by Apple, for the very reasons you explained. If there are no Apple Stores in your vicinity search for an Authorized Apple Service Provider using the Contact Us link below. Use one of the options that appear under Contact Apple Support. The language on that page will be different for your location.

Images load really slow after using Reduce File Size...

After using the "Reduce File Size..." feature in Acrobat 9 on Windows Vista, some of the images load really slow as I page through the document. Is there some kind of compression setting that I should look for to prevent the images from be affected by this?
For some of my documents it will take 30 to 60 seconds to load an image. Sometimes I can't do anything with the document until the graphic loads entirely.

Can you post an example of a file that has this issue? Personally, I recommend using the PDF optimizer, it gives better control of the final pdf file.

Macbook really slow after waking from sleep

After waking up after sleeping my Macbook everything is really slow. It takes over 10 to 20 seconds to fully wake up. Once it does switching between applications etc. is really slow. Is this a problem that would be fixed by adding more RAM? I am not using any applications that would require Rosetta. I also experience this sluggishness other times too. There really is not any difference in using my 5 year old powerbook with Tiger installed and using my Macbook. (The Powerbook did not have problems waking up though.) Why is this?

That behaviour is expected. When the machine wakes from sleep, it has a lot of things to do; reconnecting network connections, checking battery life, copying stuff from memory to and from the swap file to get everything back 'up and running'. More memory will definitely help in this case.

I reset the PRAM and it seems to be running much smoother now.
I also uninstalled AVG and Google Drive.
I ran EtreCheck again and it seems better:

Home Sharing is really slow after a while

Hi,
Ever since I've had my Apple TV (2nd gen) I've had this problem, even after every update that's been released.
When my Apple TV first boots up, I can browse my computer's library quickly. However, after it's been sitting idle for 10+ hours, it takes a ridiculous amount of time to browse.
For example, right after I reboot the Apple TV, I can click on my computer's library (only takes a second to load), then I click on music (only takes a second), then I click on an album (only takes a second), then I click on a song and it starts immediately. However, if I stop the playback and leave for several hours, the device will eventually sleep and then when I start using it again, I'll follow the same procedure above, but between each of the steps it can sit for several minutes saying "Loading" with the rotating circle.
It is immediately fixed if I simply reboot the Apple TV.
I've tried restarting the computer and rebooting my router, but neither of those fixes it. Also, my computer does not have a firewall.
Anyone else seeing / saw this, and maybe have an idea?
Thanks!

Also - my battery has been telling me "service battery" for a LONG time and then it switched to "replace soon" som time ago. Can't really see what this has to do with anything but whatever.
That could conceivably explain all the problems you're describing. Replacing a Mac's battery should not be postponed since a failed battery will cause other problems to occur. It is also possible that its hard disk has failed, which means the information on it may soon become unrecoverable.
... my latest TM back up was from April 2014, can I just run this when I have rescued everthing and then it might not be as slow?
If that Time Machine backup remains intact, it may be the only viable means of recovering that Mac's information. I suggest you do not attempt to restore its contents to your ailing Mac.
Given that you are having trouble creating a newer Time Machine backup you should stop using that Mac immediately and have it serviced as soon as you are able. Do not take it to anyone other than Apple or a service facility authorized by Apple, for the very reasons you explained. If there are no Apple Stores in your vicinity search for an Authorized Apple Service Provider using the Contact Us link below. Use one of the options that appear under Contact Apple Support. The language on that page will be different for your location.

My imac is really slow after installing Mavericks

I have read a number of threads on this and tried re-installing, starting in safe mode (no difference). I have run Etrecheck and here is the result:

Any help would be really appreciated!

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. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
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.4. 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.
5. 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.
6. 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.
7. 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.
8. 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.
9. 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.
10. 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.
11. 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.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: 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.

Phone Backup Extremely Slow after install of iTunes 8.01

Is anyone else having problems with slow backups after they upgraded to iTunes 8.01? The sync and backup was working extremely fast after the most recent iPhone updates. In fact it dropped from 15 to 20 mins down to only a couple of mins. After the install of 8.01 it is now taking 3 or 4 hours to backup the phone. What happened???????

I underestimated the time to do the backups in my original post... Now it's taking between 5 and 8 hours to do a complete backup. This is insane. I do have several apps taking up around 390MB on the iPhone. But this wasn't a problem up until this recent iTunes update. I did try moving my iPhone sync cord from my USB powered hub to a dedicated USB port on the PC. No difference. I did notice that once a backup completes the next couple of backups go back to a few minutes. Then on about the 3rd or 4th sync it goes back to taking 5 to 8 hours. This doesn't make sense.... Apple any ideas?

RMAN backups running slow after catalog cleanup.

Database: Oracle 10.2.0.4 on HP
I have a catalog database that is the catalog for 4 production databases on different servers. Recently I cleaned up the catalog using below statements in a script and cleaned up old records.
Crosscheck backup; crosscheck copy;
Delete force no prompt expired backupset completed before 'SYSDATE - 800';
Deleted anywhere from 5000 to 15,000 backupsets depending on the database.
A week later I am noticing that the backups are taking longer than they use to before. No significant change to the size of the databases. Was I supposed to do anything else after cleanup? or any ideas or pointers please??
Thank you!

Hi 860412,
Normallly the overhead of DML on the catalog is not the issue for slow running backups.
Can you do a test to run a backup without using the catalog and do a resync in a separate step?
Do you have something like OEM to check the performance of both the catalog and the target during the backup?
Regards,
Tycho

MacBook REALLY slow after Aperture install

After I installed Aperture, my system slowed WAAAAY down. I'm talking as long as a minute to bring up a menu. I made sure that all import was finished, all previews made, and in fact at times the system works as before. But then, all of a sudden, something bogs the whole system down, on any software.
How can I tell what is running in the background so I can remove it? Any other suggestions? I'm a Windows convert, so still have a lot to learn...
John

You can open up the Activity Monitor program from the /Applications/Utilities/ folder. It will give you a display of all running processes.
How much hard drive space remains after your install and import? You can choose "Get Info" from the File menu if you highlight the icon of your hard drive. The window that opens will tell you the capacity, available and used space.

5800 really slow after v40 plus can't install apps

Greetings fellow chaps. I updated my 5800 just yesterday to v40 and after that ican't install anything. When I try to install an app I receive an error message saying "Cannot install,Installation application already running"(roughly translated from Greek).Moreover the menus tend to be quite slow I'd say.
I've tried the *#7370# or whatever that was soft reset and still nothing's changed for the good. Any feedback would be helpful. Aye thanks for your time, bye bye.
