    Hi ..
    Not enough free storage space can slow your Mac down.
    Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info > Storage. Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.
    Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk
    OS X Tips Where did my Disk Space go?
    Check to see if the startup disk needs repairing.
    Launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utillities
    Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
    Click:  Verify Disk (not Verify Disk Permissions)
    If Disk Utility reports errors, restart your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys. From there you should be able to access the built in utilities in OS X Recovery to repair the startup disk.
    Make sure to back up all important data first before using OS X Recovery.
    Anti virus software, as well as third party Mac cleaning utilities such as MacKeeper  and CleanMyMac can also slow your Mac down.
    For Safari.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Relaunch Safari to test. if that doesn't help, troubleshoot Safari extensions.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

  • Facebook slows down or freezes temporialy when using Firefox. Why?

    When doing certain functions while on Facebook, such as "hide this post" my laptop seems to freeze for a few seconds. FB slowns down period. I have done the same using IE and all seems good.

    I just tested it with a deliberate post that I knew would reveal the drop down right away, I typed in @Scott (on a friend named Scott's post) in a Comment, and the drop down showed me all the Scott autofill matches, no problem. Then I typed in just Scott and it showed the drop down but then immediately froze...?
    But there are other instances where I have written paragraphs of text, any number of words should have drawn a drop down but they didn't, then suddenly I'll type a word and the drop down and freezing occurs.
    It appears entirely random but I just don't think that's how these things work.
    Very frustrating.

  • Why does facebook shut down in safari

    my wife has a ipad 1st gen and facebook shuts down while in safari. Is there any way to fix?

    Try a SMC reset. The article covers when this is required, but doing this will not affect anything.

    Does the fan seem to be running a lot? Any particular noises?

  • Finder/Graphics seem to have slowed down

    I've been having a problem (or possibly two) lately: If I'm running several programs, or one very intensive program like Mathematica, my Dock suddenly takes a long time to appear when I mouse to the edge, and/or clicking on a Finder window does not bring the window to the front, although I can move it around behind the other windows.
    I have 25 GB of disk space, but only 512 MB of RAM, and I can hear the drive going alot. But it seems to be slowing down graphics such as the Finder windows or browser loading drastically as well - I thought graphics were handled by a separate system?
    Is there anything other than increasing RAM that would alleviate this issue? It didn't happen before.
    Oh, and I've repaired permissions and such. Also, I just recently had to have the logic board replaced, because it stopped reading the computer's power supply status.
    Thanks for any suggestions you could give.

    Hi Jim,
    Maxing out the RAM will help quite a bit, when the OS needs more RAM it uses VM, or Disk Space, and Laptop drives aren't very fast either, so a faster bigger one would help, they sell 7200 RPM ones now with more cache also.
    25 GB might sound like a lot of free space, but let's say it's a 100 GB drive, then whenever the OS needs to use some for Virtual Memory, it basically has a one in four chance of finding it right away, and that will most likely be very fragmented, so the HD must jump back & forth thousands of times to write one file.
    At this point I think you should get Applejack...
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596
    After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 5 of it's things.
    At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
    The 5 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
    First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files, but you should see some speed improvement!

  • Safari suffering slow down when browsing Facebook

    Morning everyone,
    Well what can i say, the title says it all.
    When browsing Facebook with Safari (version 6.0.1) after about 10 minutes or so, Safari becomes very unresponsive, massive slow down, freezing, beachballing etc, any other sites im on whilst the Facebook tab is open also suffers too,
    I use google chrome and its absolutely fine, so 2+2 being 5, im guessing its an issue with my Safari, maybe an installed plug in or something.
    Any help resolving this would be greatly appreciated.
    Its on a Macbook Pro Retina running ML 10.8.2
    (Bit new to the mac so please be gentle ;-))
    thanks

  • Safari is slow to open and close. It also slows down other apps while running. Should I reload safari and if so, how do I do so?

    Safari is slow to open and close. It also slows down other apps while it is running. How can I resolve this issue?

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. That will revert its settings to the defaults.
    If there's no improvement, continue as follows.
    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. Test.

  • How do I fix a Safari application that slows down and freezes everything?

    Apple called last fall and said my particular Mac had a hard disk problem and they replaced it at the Apple store in late January 2013.  I backed up the information on an external harddrive and used Time Machine before to transfer all the information to the new drive. Everything worked well and I finally put on Mountain Lion at 10.8.4.  I also have Carbonite as a backup and it apparently was not enabled when I transferred the files until early May.  In early May I had not used my iMac for about a month and when I started it I found about 40 named file folders on the Desktop that were empty.  Some of those had named items in them but when I clicked on them they would dissappear.  The actual files did exist and were not effected when I dumped the apparent alias folders. Safari started and would be ok at first but if I went away for an hour it would slow down.  I took it in to the Genius Bar at Apple and they ran some tests and got rid of MacKeeper which they felt was causing the problem.  I got my Mac back home and it still started slow but worked well at first and then started going slow.  If I opened Word it would also start working at a slower speed.  I needed to force quit Safari and the Word progran in order to quit or restart the Mac.  I got an appointment for the next day and they ran all sorts of tests and the hard drive was working normally. They tried tweeking different areas and sent me home again.  When I started working again it did the same thing, I would start out fine and eventually slow down and needed to be force quit to get out of it. A message came up indicating my MasOSX startup disk had no more space available for applications memory.  I took it in a third time and the Genius went to the Activity Monitor and the Safari PID was 221 and %CPU 107, Threads 21 Real Mem 2.73 GB, Virtual Mem 22.00 Kind, Intel (64).  I had no idea what that meant. I went home again and it still ran slow and couldn't run the programs for any length of time before it ran slow and affected the other programs so they would only quit if I used Force quit.  I took it in for the forth time an they decided to keep it overnight. They ran ASD first to rule out memory.  They noticed during the appointment the computer was slow to perform normal tasks such as showing boot options, booting into user, bootingto external user.  If the ASD passed then they would perform erase and install and only restore users and application files from backup drive.  They did this on Wed and Thur. night and I took it home Friday night, June 14 and it still has the same problem. Typing this message right now means typing and waiting for the words to appear.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac. 
    These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing. 
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. 
    Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands. 
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply. 
    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. 
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign. 
    Step 1 
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it:
    kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' | open -f -a TextEdit 
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). A TextEdit window will open. Post the contents of that window, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. No typing is involved in this step.
    Step 2 
    Repeat with this line:
    { sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|org\.(amav|apac|cups|isc|ntp|postf|x)/{print $3}'; sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook; } | open -f -a TextEdit 
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. 
    Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step. 
    Step 3
    launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}' | open -f -a TextEdit 
    Step 4
    ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null | open -f -a TextEdit  
    Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting. 
    Step 5
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' | open -f -a TextEdit 
    Remember, steps 1-5 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output. 
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • Why does my animation slow down in safari?

    i've created an animation at 75 fps. when i open the .swf
    file with safari the animation is slowed down. why is this?
    also, Explorer can't even open the file. i suppose i need a
    flash player for Explorer. I should probably also upgrade from 5.2,
    huh? hahahaha

    And yet I have built an entire career on animation with
    flash. I will admit, being a toon boom user,
    the difference is huge - TBS has a lot more desireable
    features - but flash is flash - it is pretty
    convenient that the entire world browsing the internet has
    the flash player - and flash does have
    one of the most intuitive timelines ever. TBS is still in the
    dark ages with exposure sheet style
    animation - it's traditional and that's fine, but serves very
    little purpose in regards to
    computer-based animation.
    The general statement that flash is not an animation tool is
    like saying that a ferrari is not for
    driving.

  • Safari slowing down my system?

    I swore by Safari when I first started using it back in 2008, but the latest version with 'webkit2webprocess.exe" is causing some huge slow downs.  I just can't figure out what's wrong, and why safari is sudenly a lumbering beast instead of the sleek predator that it used to be.
    My system constantly caches, the bhard drive is constantly w eatorking with this thing installed.  It eats up RAM, and more ram, and never dumps anything, untiol there's no more page filing space.  Even now, after I wrote that last sentence my HD went active again.  Sure enough, "webkit2" is eating up naerly a half gig of ram.  And now when I type, I can't see what I'm typing.  and now it's eating up my video ram because I've run out of file page space.
    who the upgraded this thing, the marx brothers?
    thjis used to be the best brower on the market, but hnow it's JUST a piece of ram eating junk.

    I also finger McAffee as the culprit, it's not necessary on Mac's as of 10.6.8+ Apple installed their own anti-OS X malware detector and it checks for updates like every 26 hours or so.
    If you need to clean the Windows malware off their files, the free ClamXav does the job nicely and doesn't bugger up the machine as it's run as you need it.
    For your other slowdown issues, I suggest you look through these tips of mine, my Snow Leopard is incredibly fast.

  • Safari Among other programs slow down!

    I need help, my machine is brand-spanking new, and I am experiencing severe slow down. Safari seems to freeze up my entire computer for a couple minutes before loading up the home page. Any help will be greatly appreciated !

    Don't confuse Leopard's aggressive memory management with wasted resources, the Free Memory number is somewhat misleading. The only memory that isn't truly available for other applications to use is the Wired and Active, everything else is truly up for grabs. Inactive memory is stuff that has been cached back to disk but is staged for additional use. If another app needs that memory it will give it up, if not it generally acts as a very fast buffer for frequently used apps and files (very basic description).
    The memory amount you are really using can be derived for totaling Wired Memory and Active Memory, consider the other numbers as slack and the Free Memory number can often appear a little low. All *nix based OSs use a similar algorithm, but OS level file system caching is a good thing.
    I ran the iMac in my profile for a week on 1GB or RAM and it was buttery smooth; on the 2nd week I added the 2nd stick of RAM and it is clearly using more RAM than before. But if you compare the Active/Wired numbers they really haven't changed, it's all about caching.
    Now if you have already investigated this avenue and you are sure that caching isn't the culprit, I'd take a look at installed software as something appears to be leaking memory.

  • WebKit2Webprocess.exe*32 is slowing down safari when using flash player and using up Lot's of CPU

         Im having Major Troubles with Safari whenever I start up Safari I get a Process Called WebKit2WebProcess.exe*32 using not much memory after about 30sec its using around half of what safari is using.After a minute its around 3/4th. But It all starts when I try to basiclly go to another page , its now using higher then safari and rapidlly increasing(and even faster when Flash is in use). Right now the process is using 170 000 K and Safari is using around 130 000 K while im typing this. When i go to youtube it uses 290 000 K and safari runs slower. Its even worse with games when i tested a game
