HP Pavilion, i3, 6GB RAM is super slowly

My computer is running very slow. It takes really long time to start up and all the programs i am using are running very slowy. When I try to open a powerpoint document it take ages (10 seconds) and when I start the system i need to wait few minutes before i am able to browse the web.
It is like that since the moment i got it 1 year ago.

Hi @DoronShai ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I will do my best to assist you. I have read about your HP Pavilion 15-p010ej Notebook and having slow speeds. Thank you for all the information about what is happening.
Something is slowing the Notebook down. Did you install some virus protection or a firewall? If you disable this are your speeds better. I had a DVD in my Notebook that slowed the startup process a lot. You might want to check that.
Here is a document on improving your system.
Please let me know how this goes.
Thanks.

2008 MacPro, 6GB Ram, Running Slow-Slow response

The MacPro has 6GB ram and 3 internal drives installed. It responds very slowly to keyboard input, often shows the cursor as a spinning wheel due to processing input. Does this even after a fresh restart with. Using Activity Monitor, I see a process named "addressbooksource.sync" that is running excessively, using up to 50% of CPU capacity and shows over 4GB of my wired ram. Address Book is not running. I do not know what is causing this process to be running. When I force quit it within Activity Monitor it does not change the resonsiveness of the MacPro. The machine was doing this under LION and now also under Mt. LION.
Does anyone have suggestions on how to solve this?

mhermsen-
If just 2GB is showing, the rest has failed. You do not need any more diagnostics or work to determine this.
Pull it out and return to the Vendor for replacement.

Pavilion 15-p001ax RAM upgrade

Hi, i would like to know how much RAM can i add to this notebook and what specifications it has.
Also how many slots there are avaiable for this model.
Thank you so much

Ary.
You would first need to remove the top cover.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c04324972&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en
Then remove the motherboard.
Red are cables.
Blue are screws.
Then turn the motherboard over.
The memory is located on the under side.
Best left to someone that has done this before.

IMac late 2009 with 6GB RAM, slow with Yosemite

Have you ever used that small pc computers with slow processors, called netbooks? This is what my super fast iMac late 2009 (6GB RAM) with Mavericks turned into, after upgrading it to Yosemite OS X.
I mean, processor itself doesn't look to busy, but user experience is click and wait (when nothing happens, I almost want to click again but then action happens). Opening window animation is like slide show - it is not smooth as it was before, with Mavericks.
Anybody with iMac late 2009 can confirm this or is it my setup only?
I have the basic late 2009 model, except I upgraded it to 6GB RAM soon after I purchased it.
This is how my About this Mac looks like:
And this is how my hard disks look like:
Nothing specially busy here, just slow Yosemite. When I open Safari, Mail, iPhoto and iTunes, it is not good to open any other app, because I might wait much more. I caught my self using iPad while opening fifth app on iMac (just to get an idea, how very slow it feels).

I have a Apple Power Mac G5 Dual 2.3 GHz/6GB RAM/500GB HDD/Superdrive PowerPC Desktop and just bought an Airport Extreme card for it. The card is recognized but will not see the in-house network. This is a pre-intel computer. Do I need an antennae?

I have an Apple Power Mac G5 Dual 2.3 GHz/6GB RAM/500GB HDD/Superdrive PowerPC Desktop and just bought an Airport Extreme card for it. The card is recognized but will not see the in-house network. This is a pre-intel computer. Do I need an additional antennae? If so, which one because my research is confusing me about what is supposed to work with this computer.

My Iphone charges super slowly after upgrading to IOS 7

My phone charges super slowly after upgrading . Usually it's take about 2hours for a full charge now it's not even 60%

The iPhone will fast charge for the first 2 hours or so.. and then will trickle charge for the next couple of hours.
Try putting it on Charge Over Night... Then monitor it for next the week or so... Charging as you normally do.

Can't access Web Site, super slowly and time out!

Hi all,
I am using Server 2012 R2 with Hyper-V, HP DL360 G6 Server
The Master OS have a NIC1 to VLAN1 Switch (Also in the Cisco SG300 Switch)
Plus other NIC2 connect to Cisco SG300 28 Switch (Running in L3 Mode), this Cisco then connect to a SonicWALL NSA 2400.
I build some VLAN31 on SonicWALL NSA 2400, and add this to the Cisco SG300 as Truck Port connect Both...
Other Port on the SG300 are untouch, so mean default running mode is Truck mode, and one of it port connect to the NIC2 to the Server ...
Ok, if Hyper-V VM, not enable VLAN in the Hyper-V Management in 2012 R2, it can take the DHCP from the SonicWALL NSA 2400 no problems, can see other LAN (VLAN1) machine well both direction, and go to Internet too.
But, if I setting the VLAN31 on Hyper Manager to some VM, it can take the DHCP and take the IP from SonicWALL for this VALN31, include DNS, GW etc...
But ... it just can ping internet, for example, ping www.yahoo.com it ok, but open IE, enter www.yahoo.com will super super slowly and time out, if running CentOS 6.5 Linux, enter yum update, it total not work, time out, 0.2kb/s etc. But it can ping to www.yahoo.com
no problems...
And If Windows run routert www.yahoo.com, over 10s to see next hub ...
I am double checked SonicWALL NSA2400 Firewall Policy is allow all VLAN and LAN to WAN, and VLAN TO VLAN too..
What is wrong on the Hyper-V VLAN? Do I am setting wrong of my switch port mode (Access/Trunking)?
I am now out of direction what is go on to troubleshooting this.
Thank you.

Illustrator and Photoshop lag in i5+6gb RAM

I own Lenovo Z510 laptop with configuration - i5 4th gen, 6GB RAM, 8GB SSD(hybrid). and Nvidia GeForce 740M. Even in this configuration Illustrator and Photoshop CS5 is lagging (Even when working without textures, just plain colors). How can I optimize the settings? In Photoshop for hardware acceleration it uses onboard Intel 4000 graphics. Is that the reason? I am not getting Nvidia on drop down (switchable graphhics?).
Please help. Its painfully slow!

You definitely want Photoshop taking advantage of your video card (Nvidia) instead of your chipset (Intel). You like will have to configure you graphics settings so that the chip set is turned off to get things working correctly.

Vista x64 and 6GB RAM?

Howdy,
I've had the new 2.8GHz 8 Core Mac Pro since launch, and only, today, got another 4GB of RAM for it, bringing it to a total of 6GB.
Well upon installing the RAM, OS X saw all 6GB of ram which was great, but my Boot Camp installation of Windows Vista Ultimate 32bit only saw 2GB. I didn't know about this issue originally, but found out about it then
I have the Retail copy of Vista Ultimate, therefore I have the 64bit version sitting here, but my question is, how much of my 6GB ram would I see if I installed the 64bit version of Vista? Would I still only see 2GB... or may I even see the full 6GB?
Any help will be appreciated, I don't want to waste time installing the 64bit version, if it will only see what the 32bit version does!
ta
Steve

See http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6245994&#6245994
But all I know is that XP Pro (32 bit) sees 3 of my 4GB on my MBP.

6GB RAM in MacBookPro ???

I clicked thru to Ramjet site (www.ramjet.com) and found their sales pitch for 6GB RAM in more recent MBP models. My Profile:
Hardware:
Hardware Overview:
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identiﬁer: MacBookPro3,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.6 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 4 MB
Memory: 4 GB
Bus Speed: 800 MHz
Boot ROM Version: MBP31.0070.B07
SMC Version: 1.16f10
Sudden Motion Sensor:
State: Enabled
appears to meet what they claim as the requirements to properly run the 4/2=6 combination.
Has anyone else verified this in practice? I am newer to MAC so am not comfy with a sales site providing critical info. I run Vista under Parallels and MAC simultaniously all day with several programs always running under each, so the memory can't hurt (I assume). Guess this also introduces the question If Parallels will recognize & utilize the added RAM.
Sorry for length of post. Any advice sure is appreciated!
Kevin

Si I went ahead and ordered the 4GB RAM after the Apple tech said he had never heard of it, but what the heck, it's returnable. (BTW: Fri, 01.30.09 it was $199 on the Ramjet site, Wed, 02.03.09 it was $225, so watch prices!).
Installed the 4GB with the 2GB and the MacBook Pro recognized (and presumably is using) all 6GB. Further, I split the RAM with Vista under Parallels, and Vista recognizes 3GB when I set the split to 50/50.
So it does work!!!! And with 50% more RAM the performance of both sides should be improved.

Computer running super slowly

The computer started running super slowly, and when booted the following message would appear:
"There was a problem starting C:\Users\Name\AppData\Local\Temp
The specific module could not be found."
I ran a diagnostic and received the following information:
"Error code: BIOHD-3
No bootable drivers detected"
Is there anthing I can do to correct the problem?

Create another USER account and see if the same results.
If the same, boot your PC into the bios (f10) and look at the MAIN screen and see if a hard drive is being detected. You should see at least the CD optical drive.
Things to try:
Clear the CMOS.
Check the hard drive cables on both ends (data and power) and make sure that they are firmly corrected to the drive and the motherboard.
If your PC only has one hard drive, then you could try another SATA port on the motherboard to see if the port has gone bad. Booting back into the bios should indicate the presence of a hard drive if the original motherboard port has gone bad.
Please mark my post as SOLVED if it has resolved your problem. It helps others with similar situations.

My Time Machine backup keeps failing...how do I find out why?? MacBook Pro 5,1 OS 10.5.8, 6GB ram backing up to new OWC Mercury Elite-AL Pro 2TB

Why is 6GB ram being used with barely anything going on?

So I'm looking at my Activity Monitor for the first time since I got the late 2013 Macbook Pro.
To my amazement it's showing 6GB being used or 75% of my 8GB?!
But looking at the activity monitor is showing that the highest ram use is Kernel Monitor at 600MB.
After that it's com.apple.ServiceAgent @ 170MB and Google Chrome at 140MB.
Than there are like 15 "Google Chrome Helpers" ranging from like 100-30MB. What in the world is "Google Chrome Helpers" this seems like some kind of operating system bug to me...
I have about 13 Google Chrome tabs open but even more Helpers than tabs in the Activity Monitor...
There's no way a small Google Chrome session should take up well over 1gb ram?!
Even still, if I estimate all the Memory usage displayed in my Activity monitor it should be low 2GB, defenitely less than 3GB.
So why is it saying 6GB in use? The MAC OS couldn't possibly be 3 GB right???
This is crazy and I've noticed my MAC is pretty sluggish today while I'm trying to work. What in the world is going on here?
Can I manually cancel all those " Google Chrome Helpers" for starters?
On Windows 7 I could have literally 100's of internet tabs open and see less than 6GB ram useage no joke! Need help here please.

That all sounds great in theory but I'm looking at my Activity Monitor right now and it says:
Compressed: 0 bytes
So it sounds like I'm not getting any of the benefits with the compression from that article?
My other stats are looking like:
App Memory: 3.41 GB
File Cache : 2.05 GB
Wired Memory: ~1GB
My memory pressure looks about 20% at least even with 6.65 GB active.
Is there a reason why I have no compressed memory? It sounds like that was the whole point of this system but it's not doing anything for me? Or does that only kick in once you use up all 8GB?
I'm not sure about all this. I've been a PC guy all my life and overall I'm EXTREMELY satisfied with both my macbook pro and the iPad air I just got. But I got this stuff so I can develope games for iOS using Unity 3D, and I need a laptop. So I didn't make this purchase for the heck of it, this is business to me. And recently I've noticed that Unity 3D and Monodevelop are becoming increasingly sluggish. Because I'm having some lag problems even with just using Monodevelop which is a simple IDE for my C# work, I have been trying to figure out what's the problem here.
Apparently lots of others are having trouble with Mac OS Maverick when using Unity 3D. I'm just hoping this stuff gets sorted out and doing my best to see if I can improve the performance.
Are there any guides for optimizing a macbook pro for faster performance? It's not acceptable for me to have lag while I work. Right now I'm trying to work only on the macbook pro so I get used to it and can hopefully work nearly as fast as the PC even without using duel monitors so I can work on the go.
Just such a big difference from PC where I am quite profficient. On MAC I have no clue what I can do to fix lag.
Is there a way to modify what progams launch on start up similar to on PC typing "msconfig" in start bar allows you to edit this kind of thing?
Unity 3D is a pretty big deal for iOS and MAC development so hopefully if it is just some kind of code problems with Unity and Maverick this get's sorted out ASAP. Until then I'm doing my best to see if there's any thing I can do on my end.
The huge RAM usage was a big red flag to me on first glance, but I guess you guys are saying this is fine. Still seems strange to me how much RAM is being used, on PC I can't imagine ever needing more than 8GB Ram, on Mac it seems like this could be pretty easy to accomplish, which explains why there is 16GB RAM models which to me seemed excessive.
So I'm guessing it's normal to have that many "Google Chrome Helpers" active at once?

Extremely slow rendering. i5, 6gb RAM, CS6 PRO

Hi guys!
So I got really tired of insanely long render times. I usually use 1-2 video tracks, no keying, no special effects, commonly use Warp Stabilizer, Cineon Converter and PRO Camp, of course some colour correction (usually RGB curves, but sometimes a three way). Usually it ends up being about 3-4 tracks. On last project it took 2 hours to render a two minute video. Below i'll post info on that.
And today its taking about 12 hours to render a 40 minute video.( I am frustrated and sad of this(
My usual composition layout:
Titles
adjustment layer
video 2 (rare)
video 1
sound one
sound two
sound three (rarely)
My laptop^
i5 2n gen 2.5-3.2Ghz dual core (4 logical cores)javascript:;
6GB Ram 1333 MHz
GT 525M 1GB (i've enabled CUDA GPU acceleration. works like a charm on all 96 little silicon cylinders.)
540rpm 640 GB, practically empty (Partition D)
Use Canon for video recording, so it is UP TO fullHD .mov files. Usually FHD @ 70-100MB/s (canon's standart) Screenshots were taken at the moment of rendering (70% through)
My export settings are:
.h264
FullHD
29.97FPS/30FPS
VBR Pass 2
Target bit rate 8-10 mbs
max - 15-20
"Use Max rendering quality + use max bit depth"
Can someone point out my idiocity? Please let me know what shoud I do to avoid this.
PS, 8 core MacPro or an 8 core i7 extreeme, are neither an option here(... just sain'
English is not my native, so sorry for mistakes.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks mate!
I kinda knew all of what you said, but i guess now i am more sure of suckingness of my machine... funny thing is, load goes up to 90% maybe three times during a render and it stays loaded for a short periodof time... i loogged one of my renders back when i had Win7 x64 (ultimate) (same machine) and it showed that neither of devices were loaded more than 90%
it was something like this:
CPU <92%
GPU <95% (exception)
disk <30%
memory <50-65%
I know that with VBR 2 there are 2 passes, thus twice as long in render... but god damn, almost 2 hours for a 2 minute video??? its awful. and all of those procesess take up less than 7% for all of them. Finally, since i got only 6 GB of physical memory, my adobe is able to only use 4gb. so there is nothing bad.. I've never had any issues with such low RAM. If i had an i7, then yes, i'd need about 12-16 gb to get the most, even though, its the, SATA to Hard drive that bottlenecks the stuff. I wish I could get an SSD, but they are hellishly expensive. i got my drive thru sata3, but still, the drive is kinda sad and broken (old) so this is why i must be getting such low speeds... even when i copy info using USB3<-->USB3 device, the speed never goes over 20MBs for downloading and 5MB to uploading to a USB device.
PS... sucks to wotk an a low end machine.
