Clean installed mavericks but it is dead slow now

I recently bought an old Macbook pro. It had previously installed with 160GB(7200rpm) of hard drive.
I updated this with mavericks 10.9.3 . And it was perfectly fine. rather super perfectly fine. Yesterday I upgraded its internal Harddrive with 320GB from my other laptop because I needed more space for my tutorials and data etc.
I installed mavericks on my newly installed HDD320GB(5200rpm). using USB8GB-2.0. Now my MBP is dead slow.. I installed mavericks, 3 times, but still slow slow and dead slow.  It took 6 mintues to boot. previously about 4 ~5 hrs in installation..
After booting, I checked in Activity Monitor. and i see CPU on the bottom says.
System: 1.21%
User: 0.95%
Idle: 97.XX%
But If i keep staring on this It varies but still Idle is around 92% ~ 98%. and sometimes 45% to 70% I don't know which application is consuming my processor..
And If I open any application during this Activity MOnitor process it show fairly used processor like. idle is about 80%. But still every application responds too late.
Luckily I didn't remove mavericks from the older 160GB HDD. I booted my computer from that HDD as using external USB converter. But this time once again may macbook pro is super fine. It booted in 18seconds around. every application works great.
I want the same speed on my internal HDD, what is the problem...
I don't know what's wrong either with my newly installed 320GB-HDD or what.?
I'm using
2.5Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
4GB- RAM,
NVIDIA GeForece 8600M GT 512 MB
OSX 10.9.3
Can somebody please tell me the solution, what's wrong with it.? I'm almost crying :(.

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 by the 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 what happened. 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.

  • Trying to clean install Mavericks but hard drive partitioned and won't allow

    My MacBook Pro 2012 was set up with a partitioned hard drive. Now, as I upgrade from 10.8 to Mavericks, I'd like ot use the Disk Utility to erase the hard drive and then use the interface to install Mavericks, but it won't let me erase the hard drive.
    On the left side of the Disk Utility, below the main hard drive, there are two drives noted, with the OS and something else.
    Can you suggest how to do something here? I'm stuck halfway.

    I'm not sure what you are doing, but if the Recovery HD is still there:
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
          left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on
          the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
               because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • REALLY Clean Install Mavericks

    I have a 13" Late 2012 MBP which I upgraded with a Crucial M500 SSD on which I clean installed Mavericks the day after its launch. The SSD was brand new then, so this was the first thing it was used for, straight out of the box.
    Now, I have a "talent" of messing with system files and I may have done something wrong here and there, because OS X is not as smooth as it was supposed to be (for example, compared with 10.8.5 which I previously had on it). App crashes here and there, Safari being very slow or "forgetting" that I clicked on a link etc.
    I have verified and repaired the startup disk (from Recovery Mode), same with the permissions, I scanned and repaired it with OnyX but still it doesn't perform as expected.
    So I decided to reinstall Mavericks, from scratch. As I would really hate to "inherit" some of these bugs on the new install, I REALLY want to to start fresh. So I need a clean install, free of any doubts, just like if it were brand new again.
    Are there any tips other than the normal clean install? By normal clean install I understand making a bootable USB with 10.9, booting from it, erasing the startup drive with Disk Utility and then installing from the USB. (I prefer the USB method, since it would take a while to download 10.9 from Apple, i.e. using Internet Recovery).
    And by the way, do you recommend a specific method of doing a bootable 10.9 USB? I tend to use the way via Terminal, but I also heard of DiskMakerX as an alternative.
    And last but not least...am I paranoid? Should I worry less and simply do a straight clean install, as this is *really* the *really* good way to go?

    ⌘R on Boot, Utilities->Disk Utility, Erase Disk, exit Disk Utility, Reistall OS X Mavericks.
    (I prefer the USB method, since it would take a while to download 10.9 from Apple, i.e. using Internet Recovery).
    edit: Or that...
    And by the way, do you recommend a specific method of doing a bootable 10.9 USB? I tend to use the way via Terminal, but I also heard of DiskMakerX as an alternative.

    I just clean installed maverick on my computer and I have nothing in my iTunes library, how can I get back all the music I have bought?

    From your backups. By doing a clean install you erased your startup volume. You may have installed OS X, but your personal software was erased. You can restore from backups if your have them. If not, then you've lost it all, permanently.

  • Trying to clean install Mavericks onto OSX 10.5.8

    I am trying to clean insall an old 2008 MacBook Pro that has OSX 10.5.8 currently installed. I made a mavericks usb installer with another updated MacBook Pro. The clean install was sucessful with the other Mac, but that one was already running Mavericks before I clean installed. Just wondering if my thinkning is correct that I can back up the OSX 10.5.8 Mac using timemachine and then clean install mavericks after. Please just confirm that this can be done.

    you need at least 10.6.8 to install Mavericks as an upgrade.
    A clean install would be doable if you meet all the req.
    To install Mavericks, you need one of these Macs:
    iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
    MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
    MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later),
    MacBook Pro (15-inch or 17-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or later)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or later)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or later)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    Your Mac also needs:
    OS X Mountain Lion, Lion, or Snow Leopard v10.6.8 already installed
    2 GB or more of memory
    8 GB or more of available space

  • Clean install Mavericks on new hard drive

    Hello,
    I have a Early 2009 Mac Pro that is currently running Mavericks (10.9.1). There are currently three hard drives in it:
    2-1 TB Hitachi HDE721010SLA330 (1 as Boot drive & 1 as secondary storage, both from factory)
    1-3 TB Seagate ST3000DM001-1CH16 (being used as a Time Machine Drive)
    I want to replace the boot 1 TB drive with a second 3 TB Seagate ST3000DM001. I understand the process for clean installing Mavericks. I know that I'll have to reinstall all my apps and such. Will the cleanly installed Mavericks on the new drive be able to recognize the 2nd 1 TB storage drive as-is? Also, will Time Machine restore my iMovie projects back in place as they are now? And also, not exactly a huge issue if it would arise, but would my VirtualBox VMs be restored to where they are (I know I'll have to re-add them back into VB, that's not a big deal.
    I just want to do this as "cleanly" as possible (even though though i know that probably won't be the case, never is with computers).
    If I need to provide any more information I would be glad to. Thank you for any help in advance!

    Make A Bootable OS X Mavericks USB Install Drive With DiskMaker X
    Monday, December 23rd, 2013 | Author: OWC Jarrod and OWC Joseph 
    Last week, Apple released its Mavericks update with the 10.9.1 version of the operating system – which we hope fixes a few bugs that we saw in the first iteration released Oct. 22.
    And if the latest update has you finally looking to upgrade your Mac to the new version of the operating system, it’s worth noting that like its predecessors – beginning with OS X 10.7 – Mavericks is only available for install via download from the Mac App Store.
    This means those who previously relied on DVD installs will be unable to do so with this version. Luckily, DiskMaker X helps fill the void by allowing you to make a bootable OS X 10.9 Mavericks USB install drive.
    What’s really great about this software is like OS X Mavericks, the DiskMaker X software won’t cost you a thing (however, donations are accepted). All you need is an 8 GB (minimum) USB thumb drive, a USB, FireWire, or Thunderbolt drive or an SD-Card, the OS X 10.9 Mavericks Installer from the App Store, and the DiskMaker X application.
    DiskMaker X is fairly straightforward and will guide you through the process of making your install drive. It should be noted that DiskMaker X erases the volume or the drive you chose, according to the options you chose. So don’t forget to backup your data first!

  • Clean install Mavericks on partition

    I have searched and read several discussions related to this, but am still uncertain about just what I can and cannot do.  I consider myself an experienced, knowledgeable but casual Mac user.
    I have 10.6.8 on my IMac late 2009, so am able to upgrade to Mavericks.  I have held off ever since it was released because "If it ain't broke, don't fix it".  But now that I have an iPad, I think I need to move up.  But many upgrade horror stories have kept me from doing it.  Comments appreciated on the following:
    I have a 500GB hard drive that has 363GB free.  There are 2 partitions.  One is my working 10.6.8 @ 450GB.  The other is a stripped-down copy of 10.6.8 @ 50GB that I intended to keep should I need to run something that requires Rosetta.  Then I had the brainstorm, which I see has occurred to others: CLEAN INSTALL Mavericks on a new partition [I know how to use Disk Utility to do reduce the 450GB and define a third partition] and leave my working 10.6.8 as is [and delete the copy of 10.6.8 as it would be no longer necessary].  I think I know the answer that, yes, this can be done.  And that, in fact, a clean install is preferable.
    If I do the clean install, will Mavericks ask me if I want to transfer my data files, settings, mail, prefs, etc. from the working 10.6.8, and will I be able to point it to that system to find and transfer?  Or will I be faced with manually finding and moving all that stuff?
    What about the apps?  Same story?
    What about the PowerPC and Classic [yes, I still have some sitting there] apps?  Will Mavericks ignore them rather than move them?
    Several posts suggested using an external HD instead of a new partition for doing something like this.  I don't understand why.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Clean install = YES!  Installing Mavericks over your Snow Leopard environment will destroy it!
    Classic apps - how are you running them now?  The Classic Environment was eliminated when OS X Tiger 10.4 moved to Intel.
    Here are some thoughts about running Classic apps on an Intel Mac, that I previously assembled:
    With the newer Intel Macs, you have to run a Classic emulator such as SheepShaver, which requires you to extract the Mac ROMs from your older Classic Mac and then install Mac OS 9.
    A related program is Chubby Bunny, which comes bundled with all of that included.

  • Clean Install mavericks? CC question

    Hi,
    I know how to clean install mavericks on my mac as that's very simple but:
    I know I should deactivate Creative Cloud on this machine first, But it's not deactivated on my time machine backups so:
    When I reinstall from my time machine backup all my files and apps this isn't going to work with Creative Cloud is it? as
    the Time Machine backup will reinstall a fully activated version of Creative Cloud completely messing up my adobe account and
    making Adobe think I've installed it fraudulently on a third Mac, (copy already installed on another as allowed in the licence agreement).
    It will see this as a third copy I think.
    I hope you can see what I mean from this explanation of what I think will happen if I try a clean install from my time machine backup.
    What is the correct way on a Mac to do a clean install and reactivate Creative Cloud please without using up a licence.
    It's so confusing the possibilities appear to be endless for mess-ups.
    Thanks

    Hi Kuldeep,
    I'm sorry you got me confused for a second there, you started talking about un-installing when I hand't mentioned it and this confused me with my first replly to you. I don't think you read my question, I'm not talking at any time about uninstalling the apps I'm talking about deactivating, completely different with on my web connection about 6 hours difference in time.
    What I don't know is what I asked above:
    I already know about the licence agreement as I'd stated so why did you tell me like I hand't mentioned it?
    Rather than I repeat myself could I ask you to read the first post before replying. I don't mean to be rude but you can't have read it to come back with your answer.
    Thanks
    Bill
    I will repeat is a slightly different way just in case this helps anyone:
    (On a computer that already has a registered copy of CC on it but needs re-formatting):
    1: I can deactivate CC
    2: I re-format and restore my computer from it's time machine backups
    3: The copy of CC on my Time Machine backups is not de-activated is it? I don't know how this would work (this is the crux of the problem that I won't be able to fix afterwards).
    4: If it is deactivated, can't see how, but everything is fine and I carry on and the problem is solved.
    5: If it isn't deactivated Adobe think I've installed CC on a third computer without permission and get very upset and put my account on hold and stop me from earning money.

  • Hi, I've just installed mavericks but my HPc4180 will not print and is showing a 'blank' page in previews can anyone help me?

    Hi, I've just installed mavericks but my HPc4180 will not print and is showing a 'blank' page in previews can anyone help me?

    A few suggestions for you:
    Try:
    uninstall all HP utilities or other HP apps on your Mac
    see if there is updated software on the HP website
    go to System Preferences > Printers & Scanners > Print
    control-click on your printer in the column on the left
    select "Reset Printing System..." and "reset" in the dialog that follows
    Do a factory reset on your printer
    go back to printers & scanners and it should see your printer and download a driver for it from Apple

  • Clean install Mavericks & restore 2 users from backup?

    I have an 24" iMac from Early 2008 that has been through numerous OSX upgrades and is currently at the latest 10.9.3.  For the past year or more it has been experiencing random freezing and white, blue, other "screen of death".  I've run Apple hardware diagnostics and nothing wrong has been reported.
    After 6 years of daily use, all the upgrades, etc.  I'm thinking perhaps I should just wipe it clean, reinstall Mavericks and see if that takes care of the issues.  I have an external 1TB drive that is used by Time Machine.  The computer has 2 users, mine and my wife's and both have Time Machine enabled.
    What are the necessary steps to clean install Mavericks and restore the 2 users and data from the backup?
    Thanks!

  • I have a MBP running Mountain Lion. Tried to install Mavericks, but it keeps telling me that my disc is used as time machine backup, and cannot install Mavericks, any help appreciated

    I have a 2011 MBP running Mountain Lion. Tried to install Mavericks, but it keeps telling me " cannot install Mavericks because disc is used for Time Machine backup". I tried disabling TM by issuing the command in console " sudo tmutil disable local". Still no luck. Is there a way of erasing all the time machine backups from my system disc?
    Thanks.

    Thanks Matt. I tried erasing the "Backups.backupdb" folder. It does not allow me to do that, inspite of "sudo"-ing. I ended up installing Mavericks on another disc, and use disc migration assistant to transfer my data, before swapping out the old disc from the MBP.

    iCloud isn't syncing them on your phone.  You simply added the email account to your phone and enabled calendar and notes syncing with the email provider, and the calendar and notes appear in the calendar and notes apps on your phone.  You can do this with Gmail, Yahoo and other IMAP account.  iCloud email is just another IMAP account, but syncs notes with Apple's iCloud server just as Gmail syncs notes and calendars with Google's server.
    iCloud didnt' set up a non-iCloud account on your Mac.  When you check Mail in System Preferences>iCloud, it only creates an iCloud email account.  You can also add other email accounts to your Mac by going to System Preferences>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and clicking on the "+" sign on the bottom of the left sidebar.  If you added these other email accounts to your Mac before you upgraded to Mountain Lion, these were simply maintained on your Mac after you upgraded.

  • After installing maverick my computer is very slow

    after installing maverick my computer is very slow, what can I do?

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    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\(|timed? ?o' | tail | 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.

  • HT201364 Hi, I have all the specs for installing Mavericks but it wont do it. Would upgrading first to Mountain Lion help?

    Hi, I have all the specs for installing Mavericks but it wont do it. Would upgrading first to Mountain Lion help?

    Are you sure?
    Upgrading to Mavericks
    You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    A. Upgrading to Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
          Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
         Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
