Duplicate Annihilator running at a snail's pace

any idea why Duplicate Annihilator would be running SO SLOOOOOWWWW on my iPhoto 9 library of 28000 photos? It says it would take 11 days to check all those pics. When I talk to their tech support they say they can process 1000 photos in 4 minutes on 1 macbook 1.8ghz. I've got a imac g5 with a 2.0 ghz processor....
thanks for any help you might have!

MBP running at a snail's pace, and a myriad of other interrelated issues, please help :'-(

Hello, my MBP is running very slowly, MS Office for Mac constantly freezing, Safari constantly freezing, various little issues are arising with many different functions/programs when I try to use them; i.e., the enter key will just stop working in Excel or my Adobe Acrobat will shut itself down out of nowhere, Finder freezes and/or won't relaunch; these are just a few examples, but the overall theme is that I am experiencing problems in usability and functionality with my MBP across the board. There is no rhyme or reason to any of it, and all programs and apps seem to be affected. I first began noticing the problems upon installation of the Yosemite upgrade so initially thought that was the issue, but I have since found that malware items have added themselves to my Safari extensions. I found instructions to remove them entirely, but could not find them anywhere on my computer other than the Safari extensions when I followed the steps provided. I tried clicking "uninstall", but had no luck, which is not surprising since I am pretty sure the "uninstall" option listed with the extension is just part of the malware. I have "disabled" the extensions, but that didn't do anything. I'm sure that they have implanted themselves elsewhere and are lurking in the shadows of my operating system and wreaking havoc throughout my computer.
The whole situation is making it extremely difficult to get anything done, and if I don't fix it soon it is going to be the major contributing factor to my complete mental collapse.
PLEASE HELP!!!
I tried to find suggestions in other areas of the Apple Support Community, and found the EtreCheck tool in one of the discussion threads. I ran the report on my system, and it looks like my MPB is riddled with problems. I don't even know where to begin in order to correct them. I am not sure if the malware has just taken over and is behind all of these, or if I am dealing with several different sources of trouble.
Any help with this would be much appreciated, the EtreCheck report is as follows:
Problem description:
MBP usability decreased significantly after installing Yosemite. Computer constantly freezing and completing any task in any program/using any function of MBP takes 5-10x as long as it used to.

The minimum requirement is 2GB, but most people think 4GB is the bare minimum.
I primarily buy from Crucial, Other World Computing, or MemoryTen. As long as they have a "configurator" where you pick you exact Mac from a list and it lists all the compatible memory for that Mac, AND it has a lifetime warranty on the RAM, it should be ok. Macs are very picky about the RAM because they use it to its full capacity. If there are any faults in the modules, it will crash.
There are suggestions for sites in other parts of the world on the EveryMac website. Look down in the Section for RAM where you'll find links to their sponsors (OWC is the US-based one).
In Apple's world, there is a difference between and "Upgrade" and an "Update." Updates should generally be installed as they patch vulnerabilities and fix bugs.
Upgrades on the other hand are an entirely new Operating System (OS). A change in the OS can cause many problems with your installed software as it may not be compatible with the changes. It may rely on programming interfaces that have been removed. They should know that they will be removed as Apple publishes those facts many years prior to removing the features.
An Upgrade takes you to a major, new version of software whereas and Update just makes changes to the same major version of the software.
Yosemite was an Upgrade, not an Update.

HELP: My mail program is running at a snail's pace...

My Mail program has slowed to a crawl. Everything else on my computer is running fine, but even with nothing else running, every single function takes forever. Things that should be instantaneous (selecting text, positioning the cursor, changing font, etc.) takes several minutes. It's almost unusable.
I've looked online, and followed the instructions:
(from: http://danwarne.com/is-apple-mail-running-slow-speed-it-up/)
"You can check your current 'envelope archive' size by entering this in the terminal:
ls -lah ~/Library/Mail/Envelope\ Index
Then to optimise it (cleans out stuff that has been marked for deletion but not actually deleted, defragments the structure, etc):
sqlite3 ~/Library/Mail/Envelope\ Index vacuum;
Then check your envelope archive size again to see the results…
ls -lah ~/Library/Mail/Envelope\ Index
It compacted my envelope archive down from 55MB to 50MB — not a huge increase, but the speed difference was dramatic.
In particular, my 'sent mail' folder which had been taking 10 – 15 seconds to open (8,000 items) now only takes two or three seconds."
That didn't work, so I tried this:
(from: http://www.macworld.com/article/56673/2007/03/mailfix.html)
"The Brute Force solution
This solution forces Mail to build a completely new Envelope Index from scratch. It’s not my preferred solution, but it will ensure that you’re starting with a completely clean index file.
Quit Mail, and in the Finder, navigate to your user’s Libary -> Mail folder, and then move the file named Envelope Index out to the desktop. When you relaunch Mail, it will tell you it needs to import your messages. Click Continue and then just wait—it took about a minute to import 9,900 messages on my MacBook Pro. When the import is done, you should be looking at Mail just as it was before—but with any luck it will be running more quickly, and any odd message-related issues you were having should be resolved."
That didn't work either.
I check my Activity Monitor and have at least 80% of my cpu idle, and about 960 mb free system memory, so there doesn't seem to be anything hogging up the processors.
My livelihood is dependent upon access to email. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know ASAP.
Thanks very much!

Can I quit iPhoto while Duplicate Annihilator is running?

I just bought Duplicate Annihilator v2.22.0 and when I press, "find and annihilate duplicates", iPhoto opens. Now, I wanted to know if I can quit iPhoto while Duplicate Annihilator is running. Though the application states, "IMPORTANT! Do not interfere with iPhoto during the process", I wouldn't really be interfering with it, would I?

Oh I think that quitting the app would count as interference.
However, for best support you should contact the Makers of the app.

After I run duplicate annihilator do I have to delete the duplicate photos?

I am a novice IMAC user so please forgive me. I ran duplicate annihilator to remove dulplicate photos from my IPHOTO albums. Do I need to delete the duplicates or did the annihilator do it for me? Thanks M

You need to delete them, after reviewing them to make sure the app got it right.

Snail's Pace Processor

My 21/2 year Intel iMAC is running at a snails pace. No unusual processes running, system memory running fine with plenty of room...almost 20GB left on the 320GB main drive, ran Onyx, ran the fix persmissions and other utilities...but the processor slows down doing anything. What can I do?

Sir, I appreciate your quick response. I had assumed that too and have had the HARDEST time clearing space. However the system has been running with this much drive space used for a long time and run fabulously well...no recent downloads of anything.
When I try to move my Logic or Amazon Music folders over to an external drive, it seemd that it grinds a way for an hour, only to tell me some file could not be moved. Is this the time machine formatting on the external drive causing this? Can I unformat one of my 1T external drives and just move a copy of the whole HD over for starters?
Also...I download most of my music from Amazon, then import it into iTunes. Is it sitting in duplicate in the Amazon Folder and the iTunes folder and I can get rid of the Amazon music files if they are in iTunes (they seem to be duplicates in the folders)?
For the most part, this all started when I attempted to start uploading my music (107GB) to the Amazon Cloud (unlimited storage) and the Google Cloud. I have tried clearing out the uplaoders but the Google Music Manager keeps popping back up, though they are not attempting to do anything. I got a little uploaded from to each (not at the same time) and now they just freeze up.

I used Duplicate Annihilator to isolate dups in iPhoto on my iMac. At the end it told me it had marked the word duplicate in the comments / description field. How do I find and delete the marked photos?

I used Duplicate Annihilator to isolate dups in iPhoto on my iMac. At the end of its search, it told me it had marked the word duplicate in the comments / description field. How do I find and delete the marked photos?

File -> New Smart Album
Description -> contains -> Duplicate
will find them.
Then the keystroke to delete depends on which version of iPhoto you have. All the keyboard shortcuts are under the Help menu.

Duplicates in iphoto 11 after Duplicate Annihilator used

I have photos showing up as duplicate, triplicate and quads in Recent 'Last 18 Months' of iphoto after using duplicate annihilator successfully in the main library. How to I clean that?

In the left pane in Recent 'Last 18 Months" category when I open that up there are well over 5000 photos and movies listed and many are duplicates and triplicates. I suspect they have been imported 2 or 3 or 4 times from the iphone or camera as the info shows the same I.D. I always tell it not to import duplicates but it must happen. Duplicate Annihilator cleaned up my main photo library just fine. There were about 16000 photos originally and it whittled it down to 10,000 plus. All duplicates were Trashed.

HT1430 how do i log off icloud on my mac book air? It's slowed the MBA to snail's pace

how do i log off icloud on my mac book air? It's slowed the MBA to snail's pace. I have no reason to use icloud on MBA. I have an iphone that's functional & MBA's only a wordprocessor network'd to other machines & server. iclould serves NO FUNCTION on MBA. I have tried to remove it but have been unable to "log out".

Icloud is a web based service. If you are not actively using it, then it has no effect on your MBA.

Using duplicate annihilator: How to eliminate duplicates once found?

OK, I purchased the full version of duplicate annihilator and it found the duplicates. What's the rest of the proceedure to delete the duplicates?

If Duplicate Annihilator has given them all a keyword "Duplicate" then a smart album
Keyword is duplicate
will find them.
Has the Help in DA anything to offer?

Duplicate Annihilator Experience

Hello,
Few days back i intalled "Parallels" to be able to run Windows 8 along side Mac. However, installing Prallels made my mac very slow and thus i removed it. But removing it also did not help improve the mac & it is still running slow.
