Experiencing severe lag when using browsers?

Hi there. Up until very recently my MBP has been performing well, with little to no lag, save for during really heavy use. Recently upgraded to 8 GB of RAM as well and until this week it's been fine, but lately, whenever I use either Chrome or Safari, the entire machine just slows down and becomes largely unresponsive until I force quit whichever browser I've chosen to use.
I've searched everywhere to see if anyone else had been having problems like this, but couldn't return anything, so really hope someone here can help. It all. Ht freezes as soon as I open Chrome / Safari, and that then slows down every other application that I might be using. I've even tried running just a single browser, but it's always the same thing.

Hello, donieose.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here are some troubleshooting steps that I would try when experiencing this issue.

Corporate Win7/Office 2010 | Severe Lag when opening Office 2010 files over the network

Good Evening Everyone,
I work in a corporate environment for one of the top banks in the country (USA). We recently upgraded our computers to Windows 7. (The image has office 2010 included in the build)
I've been experiencing some severe lag when opening Office files over the network. Let me start by saying I've researched a lot and have yet to find a solution that works or even makes much of an improvement.
Notes: My laptop is new (64-bit Win 7 Enterprise). The remote desktop where the files lie is new as well. (64-bit Win 7 Enterprise) Both computers have good hardware and more than enough juice to handle applications.
There are certain files I work on along with other co-workers that we store on a computer within the office. We simply create shortcuts to the files on our local machines and make changes, etc. from there. However, after this upgrade, every time I try to
open a file on the remote computer, it takes over a 1 minute to load. I've spoken to our support team who sent someone out and confirmed it's not the network.
Both computers are on the same subnet as well. I've changed the trust center settings on both the client computers and "server" to trust any computer on the network. I have also changed the network card's speed from "Auto Negotiate" to
full duplex 100mbps with no luck.
I am out of options here and in desperate need for a fix. Even saving changes to a file we work on takes forever. 50% of the time when I close a spreadsheet, the title bar has a not responding message and takes a minute to eventually close.
PS: Extra Info : All computers run McAfee AV and use McAfee for disk encryption. I've confirmed all computers are up-to-date in every respect with the AV software.
Thanks,

Try:
Open My Computer.
Open the Tools menu and choose Folder Options...
Select the File Types tab.
Select the extension (for example DOC, or XLS) of the file that is slow to open.
In the Details section, click [Advanced], and another dialog box will open.
In the Actions section, click Open then click [Edit...], and another dialog box will open.

After upgrading to yosemite, my Cintiq lags when using photoshop, any fixes?

I've upgraded my iMac to Yosemite and photoshop CC 2014 lags when using my wacom cintiq. So far these are the steps I've taken.
I've installed wacom drivers from nov 2014 because the jan 2015 drivers didn't help
Doesn't seem to be a ruler issue within photoshop
I've renamed my adobe photoshop prefs file
and running osx 10.10.2

Not true. iCloud still works with Mavericks.
What browser are you using?
It would help to give us more information. You can download Etrecheck, which is a small free app which will generate a system report on your mac and you can paste the report here in a response. http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck
Have you used any "maintenance" or "cleaner" apps like MacKeeper or CleanMyMac in the past?
Do you have third-party antivirus software on your Mac?

Noticeable lag when using drawing tablet, streaming video, and simple games

Hi, I'm using a Toshiba Satellite Laptop model A335D-S69221. There is a noticeable lag when using my drawing tablet, streaming videos (such as youtube), and games that are not "fast" such as This War of Mine and Don't Starve. All drivers and the system is newly wiped and up to date. When visiting web pages if there are embedded videos it causes a whole system lag until it either asks me to stop script or I close the page. Colors and graphics look just fine. No problem playing fully downloaded videos. The programs themselves work just fine and the lag only happens with the above mentioned activities. Not a virus.
Is this an issue that can be solved by increasing the RAM from 4GB to 6GB or 8GB? Or is it an issue with the graphics card? I suspect RAM but don't want to shell money on the wrong thing. Most of the programs say 4GB is required but it almost seems bare minimum. Is my laptop even worth upgrading?
Unfortunately it takes away my ability to draw and makes gaming progress annoyingly slow. Once the lagging action is complete it works ok but just repeats.
Windows 7 Home Premium
Processor: AMD Turion X2 Dual-Core RM-72 210 GHz
ATI Radeon 3100 Graphics
Memory: 4GB

this is my personal opinion as a guy who had more than 5 pcs, 4 gaming laptops and other mac books for work in the past.
I believe it is slightly an older model of Toshiba you are using, your drawing tablet relies on your Ram but not as much as it relies on your GPU which would be the graphics card processor. So none of those upgrades will give you a significant change on things you want to do.
I would rather suggest you a newer model for the things you do with your budget than getting rams for your computer. Both of you are processor and graphics card.
If you want to upgrade, Ram is your cheapest option, but check out the slots, usually they have 2 slots, and 2 x 2GB on them, so if you buy a 4GB , you get 6. DDR II is kinda out of date with current programs and software, keep that in consideration aswell.
I do not think any upgrade you spend money on will give you the speed you want to feel.

2011 MacBook Pro experiencing Kernel Panics when using iPhone 4 as modem

Recently purchased a custom MacBook Pro 15" with the upgraded 2.3 ghz quad core i7 processor. I immediately installed 8 GB of Ram and a 750GB 7200 speed HD from OWC when the unit arrived. All was well when testing from home, and had zero issues after using the Mac assistant to pull apps and user data from my old MBP, which I then sold on ebay.
Brought my new MBP to work, where I use my iPhone 4 (not jailbroken) to data share, using the personal hotspot. I connect the iPhone 4 to the MBP via USB, to keep the battery on the iPhone 4 charged.
While at work, I almost immediately started getting chain Kernel Panics on the new MBP. After hard powering down and restarting, the Kernel Panics would return at unpredictable intervals, sometimes an hour or more, sometimes within seconds of booting. I immediately suspected the RAM from OWC, as bad ram is the leading cause of Kernel Panics, according to a quick google search. So here is what I did in order, although keep in mind that this took place over a period of weeks, where I would intermittently go days w/out a Kernel Panic, and I was going crazy trying to figure this out.
1. Took apart machine and re-seated OWC Ram-did not fix
2. Attempted to confirm OWC RAM was bad before sending back to OWC, moved to step 3
3. Put Apple Hardware Test DVD in and let it run the extended hardware test in loop mode over a weekend (72 hours), with no report of any hardware failure
4. Some reports on the internet seemed to indicate the Apple Hardware test was not always reliable in discovering bad ram, so I purchased memtest, which I then looped and ran for 12 hours to test ram, with no report of failure.
5. Performed clean install of OS X 10.6 from Apple DVD, to include wiping the drive-Kernel Panics remained.
6. Removed OWC ram and installed Apple original Ram-Kernel Panics remained
7. Realized that at home I was on WiFi, and was not getting Kernel Panics (at least none that I could remember over the course of 2 weeks)
8. Tested w/ iPhone 4 connected via USB as personal Hot Spot, and Kernel Panics occurred regularly.
9. Tested w/ iPhone 4 connected via WiFi as personal Hot Spot, and Kernel Panics have not returned (running 6 hours so far w/out Kernel Panic)
At the beginning I had a Kensington Turbo Mouse connected as well, but over time I unplugged it to remove it from my troubleshooting list. At this point I must conclude that when using the iPhone 4 to data share over USB is the cause of my Kernel Panics.
All of the above was the long winded version of, my iPhone 4 is crashing my Mac. I just wanted interested parties to know what I've done already before suggestions are made.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? Anyone using their iPhone 4 to data share and connecting via USB w/out experiencing Kernel Panics? Anyone have any thoughts/ideas as to why this would occur?
FWIW, I've tried more than one USB cable to connect the iPhone to my MBP, and experienced Kernel Panics w/ both cables. I also fully restored my iPhone 4 when the recent 4.3 iOS update was released, so I don't think it's a software issue w/ the iPhone. I do not have a second iPhone 4 to test with, I also do not have a second Mac to test with.
Thanks up front for your thoughts and/or assistance.
Bill

Hi everyone !
I'm new on this forum (and French btw, so I apologize in advance for any mistake (: )
I've bought the brand new MBP 13' few weeks ago, and I kept having this problem until now, I just installed K64 Enabler, and it seems to work perfectly, so I wanted you all to know it
Thanks for all the help you brought me !
Hope Apple will fix this once for all !

Display lags when using Projector Setting

Using the projector setting, I'm noticing a slight lag when I open/close any of the applications (ie: there is a momentary pause before the window either appears/disappears). Any way to fix that?
The external monitor is a Samsung Central Station (1920x1080) and connects to the laptop wirelessly via a USB/UWB dongle.
Cheers!

Macbook lag when using Parallel Desktop

I always use Parallel Desktop since when college portal website only can be accessed by Internet Explorer, so I installed Windows Xp. The thing is it really uses a lot my RAM memory, only 20 MB of Ram is free. In Parallel Desktop configuration, I have changed the RAM slot for virtual machine, I just allocated 1064 MB Ram, and it ticked for " the best performance" or in other words I let the processor to do the adjust automatically so my Macbook can run at its best performance. I have also changed the processor in virtual machine to 2(dual-core) but still my macbook lags when I run Parallel Desktop. My HDD is 160GB and I have occupied more than of it, like 60 GB left. I have a lot of vital programs so I wonder if this thing is a major cause of this lagging problem. Any advice what should I do to speed up my macbook performance back?

If you want your Mac to run better, turn Parallels down to 1 core and bump the ram down to 512Mb. Having the RAM up high and the cores up high will allow Parallels to grab more of the resources, thus slowing down the whole computer. Limit parallels to less, you shouldn't give it 50% or more of your machine unless all you do is Window stuff.
Check your graphics config too, if your not playing games in Parallels, turn off 3D graphics and only give it 16 or 32Mb VRAM.

Experiencing lags when using AirTunes

Hey all
I have a Lenovo Notebook and a Fujtsu computer, both running with Windows XP. I am running a WiFi-network with a TP-Link Router connected to a Motorola Modem (some crap my ISP gave me). There is an AirPort Express connected to this WiFi in my living room (approx. 12meters away from my router), to which my TV is plugged with an audio cable.
So, with this installation I am streaming music from my notebook (connected via WiFi) to the AirPort with iTunes (AirTunes). From time to time, I am experiencing lags or delays: for 1 or 2 minutes, the music interrupts every 5 or 10 seconds and stops for a couple of seconds. This is extremely annoying.
I have found an archived topic (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9587938) in which it was told that it's an issue appearing only since iTunes 8 and that a future update might help. Well, today theres iTunes 9 running on my PCs and the problem seems to exist, still.
Does anybody have a solution for that or is it still caused by the software?
I have been thinking of monitoring the network usage - maybe there is some sort of peak or overload during the lags.
And yes, as soon as I have finished my studies I will get me an Apple computer and an AirPort extreme. But I need to have a salary for that
best regards from Switzerland
Ivo

I was just listening to music with my airtunes speaker and after approx 15 minutes it started to have those interruptions again. So I decided to look for a monitoring solution (after a tool offered by microsoft didn't satisfy my needs). I now found Network Activity Diagram - which is great. I can now monitor the traffic to the AirPort graphically. I will do that the next time I'll be listening to music and tell you about my observations.

Macbook Pro - Kernal Crash when using browsers (Safar, Firefox, etc.)

A couple of days ago my computer started giving me the dreaded Kernel crash (You need to restart your computer. Hold the Power button for several seconds or press the Restart button.) whenever I browsed the internet. I tried using different browsers, installing fresh copies of Firefox, etc. but nothing works. I have no idea why it started all of a sudden but I can barely browse 5-10 minutes without having to restart my computer. Here is the Kernal panic log, perhaps it will help someone fix my problem:

Thanks for the suggestion, but my problem has nothing to do with WebKitPluginHost. Additionally, I uninstalled FLASH and installed the BETA version someone suggested in that thread, but there was no difference.
I have isolated the problem further and it seems to be that the problem arises when I go to GMAIL, among other sites (I think it happened on Facebook too). Might it have something to do with some kind of scripts/flash/etc. in GMAIL (maybe when the CHAT menu is loading or something?). I can't access my e-mail at all.
I would love to resolve this issue and I have no idea where it came from. Just started one day. ONLY change I had made before noticing the problem was I installed a USB Internet key software to connect to the internet, but I don't see why that would cause the problem.

Extreme mouse cursor lag when using Accessibility Zoom (Fullscreen) in Yosemite

I have a Retina MacBook Pro running OS X Yosemite (10.10), clean installed, connected to an external Thunderbolt Display. When I zoom in using Accessibility, I experience a very prominent lag, moving my mouse cursor (either with my Magic Mouse or Magic Trackpad or the built-in Trackpad) around or when zooming out. It is especially visible when zoomed in on applications like Calendar and Mail. This never happened in Mavericks. My settings are as follows.
I've tried creating a new user account on my Mac and the problem still persists, which leads me to believe it's a bug with Yosemite.
Anyone else have the same problem?

I also have the same exact problem. I have a i5 iMac Mid 2011 with an upgrade to 10.10 Yosemite connected to an external display. I like you never had this issue with Mavericks. Zoom is so painfully slow now that I had to disable it. My iMac has 12 GB of RAM and even with no apps opened, zoom is killer slow.. makes me want to punch a wall-kinda slow.
I think it's clear to say that something is up with 10.10.. some bug.
Apple please fix us zoomers

6.0.1 : Apple tv lag when using airplay (mirror) on macbook pro...

Hi,
I have recently bought a new apple tv (october 2013) partly for airplay (mirror) with my macbook pro.
Since the 6.0 version when i use my macbook i have some video lag..
I updated to the 6.0.1 and since.... it's worst !
I need your help i'm becoming crazy...
1- My tv : Samsung UE40EH6030 LED 3D
2- I'm using a 2011 mac book pro 2,3 GHz Intel Core i5 with 4gb memory (10.9 Mavericks)
3- I have checked my internet connection (best canal : 11)
Thanks

Mac OS X 10.9.1 has fixed the problem for me.
Pixelation is gone.
The delay between mouse/keyboard input and display is noticible but manageable.
Streaming video works well (with audio / video just a tiny bit out of sync).

Phone lagging when using imessage

When ever I am in a group imessage, my phone "freezes and lags". Any idea why? Does this happen to anyone else?
Using iphone 5 on Verizon.
Thanks
SS

Do you have a large number of messages?
If you can afford to get rid of a few conversations, that can always help.
Is your phone on the latest software?
settings>general>about>software version. should be 6.1.4 If not, backup and then update through itunes.
you can also sign out of your imessage and then back in..
good luck:)

Video lag when using apple remote app

I'm running iTunes on a vista machine.....iTunes runs great but when I use the remote app on my iPad I get video stutter........music is fine. any help would be great...........

How about rephrasing your original question as I find it confusing and likely incomplete.
People will try to help but they must understand your question.
Also they are less likely to help a poster that bashes someone trying to help.

Lag when useing simple programs

Hi
ok i have a problem with my macbook pro 13" 2.4GHZ 4GB ram, basically when i use Firefox (mainly Javas and videos) or World of Warcraft the display Laggs a lot and so does the cursor, sometimes so bad i cant quit the program. i have been advised to make a new user to see if that stops it, yet it doesn't.
Can someone please give me some advice. Thankyou, Jack

Good job Jacksears-
Next step would be to re-install the 10.6.7 Combo_Update. See if this helps especially if you just ran the software updater and installed the "delta update." Repair permissions after installation.

just scanned the machine for any viruses and its all good.
I do not know what anti-virus you have on your Mac, but some are known to slow things down and are of no value on Mac. YMMV. You might try un-installing the AV package.
