External USB3 HD extremely slow
I have a Macbook Pro Retina and connected to it a Toshiba 2TB USB3 drive. The transfer rates are extremely slow. The benchmarks I get are:
sequential write: 36MBps
sequential rewrite: 17MBps
sequential read: 41MBps
Now that hardly qualifies for expected USB2 speeds, let alone USB3.
Any idea what is causing this?
An update to this post - I tried a USB mouse and it didn't change anything. I was getting really tired of the sounds being way delayed playing Microsoft Solitaire, and the slow mouse response became really pronounced when mousing over pages on Chrome. I did some more digging and found posts related to "computer slow on battery". Turns out the solution to this problem fixed everything else - the Intel Dynamic Platform needs to be disabled. There are other posts on the Web describing the problem, but here's the skinny on how to fix it: Control PanelPowerBalancedChange OptionsAdvancedScroll to Intel Dynamic Platform...Low PowerDisable

External harddisk became extremely slow after reformat using disk utility
hello everyone~ let me try to describe as clear as possible!
to start with, i have 2 external harddisk:
hd(A)-120G, format in Mac OS Extended (journaled), it's and old harddisk and is nearly full;
hd(B)-200G, format in MS-DOS (ie. FAT32), it's a new harddisk with plenty of space.
what i wanted to do: make both hd(A) & hd(B) read & writable in mac & windows.
so, i tried to move all files in hd(A) to hd(B), hope to reformat the hd(A) to MS-DOS. but then i found out many big files can't be moved to hd(B) at all, and then i found out there's a 4G limit to the FAT32 format.
then, i tried to format hd(B) in NTFS, hoping that it can be read & writable with the help of MacFuse in both mac & windows without file size limit. so i downloaded and installed the MacFuse in my mac and format the hd(B) in a PC with Vista. well i was a bit impatient.. so i chose quick format only. then i plugged it in my mac~ yes it's readable & writable!! but the speed was like... 2mbps.......yes, 2MB per second. i really can't stand this speed! i thought it's becoz of the NTFS format... maybe it makes the transfer speed slow in mac?
so finally... i reformat the hd(B) into Mac OS Extended (journaled) using Disk Utility in OSX. i gave up the idea to make it usable in both mac & window.. i juz want the bigger harddisk to serve as a backup storage harddisk and i'll be happy with that already. so, after the format, i started moving files from hd(A) to hd(B)...and....well... the speed remained at 2MB per second.... which means, it takes like an hour to transfer juz 2G or so... i think the speed is very strange right?? maybe i messed it up making it different formats one time and another... and i dunno what to do with it now!!
anyone...please help me?? =(Hi aniDa, and a warm welcome to the forums!
You might try reformatting it but choose the Security Option button to Zero Data once.
Did you reboot everything?
You can also make your PCS R/W HFS+ with MacDrive ...

My external HD of 1TB is not being recognized by the iMac and when after a long waiting period it does, the whole computer becomes extremely slow. Do I need any particular add-on to make it workable?
Before I updated to OS X Mavericks I was using another external disk that was getting disconnected ocasionally so I bought a new ADATA HD710 portable 1TB Drive and moved the files to it. This new drive which is supposed to be OS X Mavericks compatible takes minutes to show the files especially when opening second and third level folders which has made mu iMac unusable
What should I do?Your Mac should be able to recognize many different types of drives (including Windows-formatted drives) immediately for Reading, provided they are in good working condition and not damaged. There should be no need to transfer to a different type of drive.
If there is no recognition of this drive, see if it can be seen in Disk Utility.
If your aim is to transfer the data on it DO NOT use ERASE or PARTITION as these will completely erase all the information on the Drive.
If the drive is present while the Mac sleeps, it is likely to drop out and not be seen any longer, especially if it is a USB-powered drive. -
my final cut is running extremely slow after having for 6 months. I use external hard drives and save nothing on my computer. it takes a long time to render now. do you think something is wrong with computer. took it to mac store but they fail to help me. I have a 13 inch mac book pro 10.6.8 8gb 2.3 gfz intel core i5
What did Apple tell you about what they did (or did not) find here?
See if working on the main disk is any faster.
USB2 is glacial, as I/O interconnects go. And USB2 disks have been known to fail, or sometimes to drop back to USB1 speeds, too. FireWire 800 is substantially faster than USB2, but still not as fast as the internal drive connections can provide.
Put another way, start varying your configuration, and see which configuration changes (still) have the problem, and which don't. -
I have just installed a USB 2.0 Lacie 1 TB external hard drive in the rear port of my Airport Extreme router, for the purpose of storing & sharing Photos, Music & video files on our network. All this was done on the advice from the apple guy.......when i open Iphoto it takes well over a full minute to see the photo library (that little pinwheel just keeps on spinning)...Does anyone know a solution to this extreme slowness?
Just writing to bump your question as I have a very similar question. I want to connect a HD to my Time Capsule for the same purpose as you and want it to be fast like you. I hope you get an answer.

ITunes + Ping extremely slow with Library on external HD
Hi,
My Library is on an external HD connected to an Airport Extreme base station. My MacBook is connected wired to Airport, so there are no possible wifi connection issues.
iTunes is extremely slow since version 10. If I select a song and want to select another one, I've got a spinning beach ball for at least 20s. Change a rating: 20s delay. Every move I make: at least 20s delay...
My guess: every time I select a song, iTunes connects to Ping to fill up the dropdown menu next to the song title. Disabling Ping doesn't help. I tried in Terminal "defaults write com.apple.iTunes hide-ping-dropdown -bool TRUE", but this merely hides the dropdown menu, it doesn't stop the functionality.
iTunes is basically not usable anymore.
Any suggestions?talie wrote:
I am running iTunes 11 with the media files stored on an external hard-drive. This setup works great except for one thing:
If I am currently downloading something from the iTunes Store and I quit iTunes
Don't quit iTunes.
How can I make iTunes see the interrupted download and not have to restart the download from the beginning?
You cannot. -
Yoga 2 Pro - extremely slow when plugged to an external monitor with Windows 10
Hi! Like most of you, I was eager to take the step early and try Windows 10 (knowing the risk of running into some problems on the way). Everything works very smoothly, and Win10 is really delightful. The only major problem I've faced is that when I plug an external monitor, every action (launching Firefox for example) takes ages and many apps "doesn't respond". I've downloaded and installed all the drivers for Win10 (included the one for the graphic card). Any idea what is happening or what I could try? Best,François
Hi. I am suffering the exact same thing. But i think i narrowed down the issue:When i am not using an external monitor - everything works nicely.When I am using an external monitor (and laptop set to "Extend" mode) while laptop screen is open - everything works nicely.When i am using an external monitor (and laptop set to "Extend" mode) while laptop screen is closed - everything becomes extremely slow and laggy. I wish Lenovo support would provide a solution asap.

USB connection suddenly extremely slow
As I ususally have manny film, series on my external hard drive connected to my Airport Extreeme, I suddenly got a big supprise when the speed suddenly got extremely slow. Not possible to use it for anything. The internet connection is however perfect.
As it has allways functioned perfectly for me I don´t know what to do. It was about that time I uppdated the Java pack resently submitted by Apple. But I can´t see why this should have aything to do with this.
Has anyone had any simmilar problems, and what is the remedy. I am all blank....Keep in mind that the very first device you connect will determine the default speed for the entire USB bus. So, if you boot up the MBP, log in, and plug in a USB2 device, then the bus will never operate faster than USB2. You would then need to reboot the computer, and first connect the USB3 device to ensure the bus steps up to USB3 speeds for USB3 devices.
Also, make sure you are using a USB3 compatible cable with any USB3 devices to get max. transfer speeds.

Toshiba STOR.E Basics 1TB - extremely slow
Hi,
I've recently bought this Toshiba STOR.E Basics 1TB USB 3.0 HDTB110EK3BA and it's extremely slow, taking already around 48h for copying less than 100Gb.
I'm formating it Mac Os Plus and using a Mac Book Pro with USB3
Why is that happening?
Thanks
BR/ JaviWhy the data transfer is slow?
Who knows there are many reasons for that you will need to check some few things to get an answer for that
Fact is that this HDD support the USB 3.0 standard.
This means that this HDD operates with USB 3.0 performance (~ 130MB/s)
Fact is that the USB 3.0 HDD needs more power than the common USB 2.0 HDDs.
The USB 3.0 needs 900mA, the USB 2.0 HDD needs 500mA
Therefore its recommended to connect such HDD to two USB 2.0 ports using Y USB cable.
At the other hand the data transmission speed might be limited to the notebook (chipset).
Maybe your internal HDD does not provide more performance to transmit the data to the external HDD.
I read some test about this HDD and many users got the great performance.
Using USB 2.0 ports: 31,8 MB/s write ; 31,5 MB/s read
using USB 3.0 ports : 105,45 MB/s write ; 108,89 MB/s read
I recommend you to install some Disk Benchmark tools like ATTO to check the performance using other computer. -
It's a MBP mid 2010. Last year it had some problems and an Apple authorised shop changed the HD and upgraded the OS from Snow Leopard to Lion. After that it seemed fine. Recently it started getting very slow and apps (e.g. Chrome, Flash) would crash. At some point it seemed stuck so I gave it a hard shutdown - bad idea. After that it would only boot in Safe Mode. I ran repar disk and repair permissions from the Disk Utility and it booted normally again but extremely slow. I upgraded to OS X 10.8.2, but didn't solve it. I tried booting with Command D to have a hardware diagnostic - it wouldn't boot and now it only boots in Safe Mode.
All data is backed and I have an external HD (but not an OS X Disc). Ready to anything. Help please!

Also you can perform #1 and #2 as these occur before Safe Mode, so you just reboot again with Shift key if you need to enter Safe Mode again.
At this point it sounds like your hard drive is dying or some sort of other hardware issue which I can only advise this.
Try to install OS X on a external drive and boot from it, if it's fine then you know your internal boot drive is dying.
Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
You can replace your internal drive yourself.
OtherWorld Computing is pretty good about providing drives and tool kits to perform that function yourself.

Zoom (Accessibility feature) is extremely slow with multiple monitors [OSX 10.10]
When connecting an external display to my Laptop and using the "Ctrl + Scroll" functionality for accessibility zooming, the display/graphics are extremely slow.
An estimate of FPS would be sub 1FPS. The machine becomes unresponsive and is unusable for a minute or so, until I can get it zoomed back out, and it begins responding normally.
This is very disruptive, as its a feature I use often.
The same laptop on OSX 10.9 did not exhibit this issue.
Hardware: MacBook Pro 13" Retina Mid 2014, 16GB Ram
Software: OSX Yosemite 10.10
System Information: http://cl.ly/image/0H1p032w0M0w
Reproduction steps:
1. Enable CTRL+SCROLL zoom functionality in System Preferences > Accessibility
2. Connect external monitor (Display port cable)
3. Hold CTRL and Scroll to zoom
4. System becomes slow, graphics slow, showing < 1 FPS without any other applications runningJust to note, I have the same problem....
When you use Thunderbolt display with 15" MB Pro late 2013, it zooms unreasonably slow.
But when you close the laptop display and only have the Thunderbolt display on, it zooms a bit faster, but still too slow for such a new laptop.
I think it could be optimised a bit better, something somewhere can be improved here.

Dear Apple Support Community.
As mentioned by a number of users reporting the same problem, my 2009 iMac CPU3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 8GB RAM, has become extremely slow and repeatedly "out of Memory" since it was migrated from Mountain Lion to Mavericks (OS 10.9 then OS 10.9.1).
I have already run CleanMyMac, deleted 5GB of useless stuffs, which did not translate into any improvement. Following the advices collected in other Apple Support Community threads, I have applied EtreCheck the outcome of which is provided below.
For information, I have also upgraded my 2011 MacBook CPU2.3 GHz Core i7, 8GB which became only a bit slower than before, sometimes freezing which it almost never did before. However, I am used to the fact that Mac get usually slower and more prompt fo freeze after upgrading to a more recent OS.
Both my 2009 iMac and my 2011 MacBook have F-Secure installed. So the problem with the 2009 IMac is unlikly to be due to the presence of F-Secure. Interestingly, the few abnormalities found by Etrecheck were exacly identical before I ran CleanMyMac. There are two more findings (mentioned below) since I ran CleanMyMac on the 2009 iMac, which again didn't improve the problem.
So please find below the details of the EtreCheck experience and some additional measurements made with iStat while running EtreCheck:

Practically:
The iMac can work slowly with only one software e.g. either Mail or Safari or Firefox, but still the below "out of Memory" message occurs about every 3 minutes.
Aperture has becomre to slow to be useable
If trying to write a mail (with Mail) while Safari or Firefox is open, then the "out of Memory" message occurs about every 20 seconds so I need to check on "Resume" several times per minute.
Conclusions
From the above, unless anyone in the Apple Support Community proves to be able to identify a specific problem leading to a way to find a cure, I tend to conclude that Mavericks is not suitable for computers operating with a Core 2 Duo CPU even with a 8GB of RAM.
Unless I missed something, I did not see any warning from Apple Computer Inc. informing their customers they should refrain from upgrading Core 2 Duo Computers.
The only solution I see so far is to downgrade from Mavericks to Mountain Lion. And the Apple Support Community would confirm that it is the only solution, I would appreciate to get your guidance on how to proceed.
Intended action plan
Migrate the above 2009 iMac to a 2014 Mac Mini Server operating on Mavericks to ensure that no data may be lost while downgrading to Montain Lion.
Provided the above downgrading operation is successful, assign this 2009 iMac to partial retirement e.g. Mail, Skype, iTunes and DVD player.
In advance, I would like to thank the Apple Community for helping me either i) finding a cure to the problem, ii) or confirming that Mavericks cannot operate properly on Core 2 Duo computers, iii) and in such a case, guiding me on how to downgrade to Mountain Lion.
Yours sincerely
Core... what anti-virus would you recommend using?
Use what is already included with OS X. It already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it that way with software updates from Apple.
A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
Never install any product that claims to "speed up", "clean up", "optimize", or "accelerate" your Mac. Without exception, they will do the opposite.
Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources. Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iTunes or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
Disable Java in Safari > Preferences > Security.
Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
Block browser popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > and check "Block popup windows":
Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but popups have devolved to become a common means to deliver targeted advertising that you probably do not want.
Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
If you ever see a popup indicating it detected registry errors, that your Mac is infected with some ick, or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. To date, most of these attempts have been pathetic and are easily recognized, but that is likely to change in the future as criminals become more clever.
OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind. -
Extremely slow and high latency all day.
DSL is running extremely slow during peak hours from 12 afternoon to 12 midnight. Lower than 50% of rated speed and high latency
I have been frustrated with this DSL Service for months now. I am considering contacting BBB to file a complaint and I am tired of dealing with customer service giving me the run around. Internet is a monopoly in my area therefore verizon feels it doesn't have to do anything to keep its customers when they provide crappy service. I am on waitlist for another internet service provider and it is going to take almost a year because of how bad the internet options are in the area and demand for better options. I even had to pay over 100 dollars to get a truck roll come to my house to fix any issues within the house and the internet has not gotten better. Atleast I feel I should get a refund or something.
Here is my speedtest result just now. http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/2899553407
It has been even slower at other times. http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/2893509440

Here is what ICSI Netalyzer Results have stated.
Network Access Link Properties + –
Network performance (?): Latency: 580 ms, Loss: 15.5% –
The round-trip time (RTT) between your computer and our server is 580 ms, which is somewhat high. This may be due to a variety of factors, including distance between your computer and our server, a slow network link, or other network traffic.
We recorded a packet loss of 16%. This loss is very significant and will lead to serious performance problems. It could be due either to very high load on our servers due to a large number of visitors, or problems in your network. Of the packet loss, at least 14.0% of the packets appear to have been lost on the path from your computer to our servers.
TCP connection setup latency (?): 720ms –
The time it takes for your computer to set up a TCP connection with our server is 720 ms, which is quite high. This may be due to a variety of factors, including a significant distance between your computer and our server, a particularly slow or poor network link, or problems in your network.
Background measurement of network health (?): 3 transient outages, longest: 0.8 seconds –
During most of Netalyzr's execution, the client continuously measures the state of the network in the background, looking for short outages. During testing, the client observed 3 such outages. The longest outage lasted for 0.8 seconds. This suggests a general problem with the network where connectivity is intermittent. This loss might also cause some of Netalyzr's other tests to produce incorrect results.
Network bandwidth (?): Upload 700 Kbit/s, Download 2.3 Mbit/s +
Network buffer measurements (?): Uplink 5400 ms, Downlink 1200 ms –
We estimate your uplink as having 5400 ms of buffering. This is quite high, and you may experience substantial disruption to your network performance when performing interactive tasks such as web-surfing while simultaneously conducting large uploads. With such a buffer, real-time applications such as games or audio chat can work quite poorly when conducting large uploads at the same time.
We estimate your downlink as having 1200 ms of buffering. This is quite high, and you may experience substantial disruption to your network performance when performing interactive tasks such as web-surfing while simultaneously conducting large downloads. With such a buffer, real-time applications such as games or audio chat can work quite poorly when conducting large downloads at the same time.
HTTP Tests + –
Address-based HTTP proxy detection (?): OK +
Content-based HTTP proxy detection (?): OK +
HTTP proxy detection via malformed requests (?): OK +
Filetype-based filtering (?): OK +
HTTP caching behavior (?): OK +
JavaScript-based tests (?): OK +
DNS Tests + –
Restricted domain DNS lookup (?): OK +
Unrestricted domain DNS lookup (?): OK +
DNS resolver address (?): OK +
DNS resolver properties (?): Lookup latency 520 ms +
Direct probing of DNS resolvers (?): +
DNS glue policy (?): OK +
DNS resolver port randomization (?): OK +
DNS lookups of popular domains (?): OK +
DNS external proxy (?): OK +
DNS results wildcarding (?): Warning –
Your ISP's DNS server returns IP addresses even for domain names which should not resolve. Instead of an error, the DNS server returns an address of 199.101.28.20, which resolves to search.dnsassist.verizon.net. You can inspect the resulting HTML content here.
There are several possible explanations for this behavior. The most likely cause is that the ISP is attempting to profit from customer's typos by presenting advertisements in response to bad requests, but it could also be due to an error or misconfiguration in the DNS server.
The big problem with this behavior is that it can potentially break any network application which relies on DNS properly returning an error when a name does not exist.
The following lists your DNS server's behavior in more detail.
Please help. I am so frustrated I literally have fights with my family over internet problems. I am right now looking for other options and even starting to think about paying over 100 a month for dedicated line or T1 if they can service my area.Not a single response from Verizon on this? And after you posted the tests & information they will need? I think I may have to make a service choice soon. Its bad enough Verizon can't post a simple email address for our support, they have removed Usenet access, removed access to our websites (I use HTML so their sitebuilder is useless)... Sheeshe...

MacBook Pro extremely slow start up, Rainbow wheel of death. HELP!
Hi there
My Mac has just suddenly started becoming very slow. Upgraded to Mavericks 2 months ago. Had an issue at first install that was resolved with re-installation.
Has become very slow to boot, freezing at the Grey Screen with the Apple and spining cog. (Kernel I think?)
It is also very slow once logged in. Nothing has changed system wise. Any help would be much appreciated.

Jun 6 09:24:24 localhost kernel[0] <Debug>: Previous Shutdown Cause: -60Thanks for all the suggestions guys, I'm not too Mac savvy, so the help is very much appreciated. So here's what I've done...
Had already tried to delete CleanMyMac. So I got EasyFind, and used it to delete/destroy the rest of the files. Did the same for Roxio, Sierra Wireless and Seagate. PaceAp would have been installed with Pro Tools, which is now gone.
There are several files associated with Sierra, PaceAp and Seagate (.plist & .bom files) that I cannot delete, as I get an error saying that cannot be deleted.
Tried Verifying and Repairing Disk Permissions - All was OK
Ran through the Sleep, then Restart, then Shutdown sequence. Noticed no difference.
Reset P-Ram.
Reset SMC
Rebooted again, holding command + R and ran the disk utility.
First Verified the disk. Got errors:
Invalid Directory item count
Volume bitmap needs minor repair for orphaned blocks
The volume Machintosh HD was found corrupt and needs to be repaired.
So I then ran Repair disk, it ran through and then said:
The volume Machintosh HD was repaired successfully.
The battery condition is normal

Charging: No
Full Charge Capacity (mAh): 5482
Health Information:
Cycle Count: 806
Condition: Normal
Battery Installed: Yes
Amperage (mA): 0
Voltage (mV): 12401
I then rebooted, but nothing has changed. At the moment it boots to the grey screen with the Apple logo and cogwheel. Takes about 10 mins to then go through to log in. Often the fan will start running as if the system is under load.
When I click login the rainbow wheel pops up and it freezes for a while. Then it eventually loads the home page. Takes another 10 - 20 mins to load everything, the clock and wifi connections in the top right take ages to load.
It will be extremely slow for another 20 mins or so. Cant open folders or do simple tasks without getting the rainbow wheel. Then after a little while it seems to run OK, but still sluggish.
There are no programs that are launched on startup, and I close all programs before shutting the system down. I have over 100 GB free space on the harddrive. Yet I notice in the data from EtreCheck, it states there is only 66 Gb.
Haven't used Time Machine, as my external harddrive is formatted to FAT32, and I have nowhere to store all its contents to reformat it to Mac Extended Journal. I have backed up all the files from the system that I need.
So is there anything else I can try? Should I try a full system wipe and reinstallation? If so, how do I go about this?
I'm assuming unlike PC's, it's not just a simple task to replace the harddrive, if it is failing hardware?
I'm in rural Australia, so not readily near a Mac Support Shop. But if it is hardware, I'll just have to figure out some way to get to one.
Here's the updated info from EtreCheck, if its of any use..
Thanks again everyone the help, muchos gracias!
