I updated my Mac(2008) with Lion and its running slow and some pages go crazy. Why is this?

iTunes deletes all my music after I update to the new version.

The next time you have the problem, note the exact times when it starts and ends: hour, minute, second.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console 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 Console in the page that opens.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Scroll back in the log to the time you noted above. Post any messages timestamped during that interval – the text, please, not a screenshot.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
PLEASE DO NOT INDISCRIMINATELY DUMP THOUSANDS OF LINES FROM THE LOG INTO A MESSAGE. If you do that, I will not respond.

  • Macbook with 10.7.4 running slow and iPhoto won't launch

    My Macbook was running very slow, so i verified and repaired permissions.   After I did that iPhoto will not launch.   I attached my LaCie on USB port and went into Time Machine.  Then went to the last backup and started restore.  It has been restoring iPhoto for 19 hrs.   My question is should I stop the Restore (not really sure it is restoring), then attempt to verify and repair permissions again?   I am thinking there may have been a problem with the last repairing disk permission?  I have 12GB left on MacBook

    This seems like a very common issue! I purchased the OS X Lion the very next day after its release.. used it for a few days on my Macbook Pro.. I also updated all my applications (adobe, office, ilife etc) to make it run smoothly and compatible on the Lion.. but after a month or so, my machine became like the first macintosh Mr. Jobs made.. VERYYY SLOOWW!!!!! it would take 5-7 minutes to boot up, and the dock wud also take time!! The beach ball occupied my screen so much time, that I even forgot how the normal cursor looked like!
    I decided to upgraded my RAM to 8GB, but same problem! I had like thousands of mails and didnt even find any solution to downgrade back to leopard!
    I wasted almost a week to re-install snow leopard and all my applications!! and luckily google apps saved me with all my mails! Since then I have been ignoring every single update! I am happy with snow leopard!!
    LION IS VERYY BUGGY! I wasted my $30 odd bucks!!! I often search for freezing beach ball lion!!! and seems there is no solution till now... NEVER GOING TO UPGRADE!!!

  • After installing Mountain Lion iMac i5 runs slow and hard to wake up

    After installing OS X10.8 (Mountian Lion) my iMac i5 with 4GB RAM seems to run slower.  It also is hard to wake up after sleep mode.  Sometimes it even just freezes and when I force quit all the apps the apps can never be launched without a hard reboot.

    Open Disk Utility (Application - Utilities - Disk Utility) Repair Disk Permissisons 2-3x. If that doesn't work then restart in Safe Mode to clear some caches and then restart normally. If it still has problems then your install is corrupt and you need to re-download and re-install Mountain Lion from the Mac App Store.

  • After installing Lion, my computer runs slow and freezes a lot...like a PC

    Arg!!!   After upgrading to Snow leopard and then Lion so that I could use i Cloud, my macbook is running slower than a 1998 Dell.  All my programs are freezing, it takes me minutes to change websites in my browser and I have to force quit EVERY program when I want to shut down.  WTH?!?  Help!

    I'm experiencing increased slowness as well, but I wouldnt say my MacBook Pro is "older." I'm running a MBP with the Sandy Bridge Intel Core i7 2.3 GHz, 4GB 1333 MHz DDR Ram, and a AMD Radeon HD 6750M video card with 1024 MB of dedicated video memory.
    I've tried fixing permissions and repairing the disk, but still the computer is a lot slower than when was running Snow Leopard.
    Are there any other options besides buying a only slightly faster, but newer computer?

  • I just bought a 2011 MacBook Pro 15" and its running slow

    I keep seeing the beach ball and safari is sluggish. When I have music playing in iTunes it sometimes skips. My laptop came pre-installed with Lion. Does anyone know a fix or something I can do to at least make it run a bit faster till 10.7.2 comes out?

    No, those are normal. In activity monitor click on System Memory. What is the value in front of Page Outs and Page Ins?

  • I just upgraded to Lion on my wife's MB 13" 2008 unibody and it runs slow and the system restarts can anyone help?

    Everytime the mac is left for a period of time it will restart. It also will shut down apps like safari, mackeeper, etc

    Hello,
    So, it won't boot from the ASD Disc?
    Did you put the CPUs back in the same position they were in before?
    What kind of Thermal paste did you use?
    The Macintosh startup chime is the single note or chord (depending on model type) played when an Apple Macintosh computer is turned on. The sound indicates that diagnostic tests run immediately at startup have found no hardware or fundamental software problems.
    But, that may not apply once stepping further into the boot process due to a variety of factors.
    Are you getting any beeps or flashes on the power button after the bong?
    Can you count the beeps or flashes?
    1 beep = no RAM installed
    2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
    3 beeps = no good banks
    4 beeps = no good boot images in the boot ROM (and/or bad sys config block)
    5 beeps = processor is not usable
    In addition to the beeps, on some computers the power LED will flash a corresponding number of times plus one. The LED will repeat the sequence after approximately a 5-second pause. The tones are only played once.
    Note: In this case, a flash is considered to be 1/4 second or 250 ms or greater in length.

  • HT4623 I tried to update my i phone and its stuck in connect to i tune mode, why is this?

    I noticed i had an update, so i tried to update the software to fix some bug issues.  When i tried to update it has remained in connect to itunes mode for several hours.  What did i do wrong? How can i fix this?

    Your phone is probably in recovery mode. You have to restore the phone via iTunes on your computer. Basically all of your data will be deleted once the phone is restored. Do you have any backup?

  • Updated my mac to mountain lion 10.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install? Can anyone help me?

    updated my mac to mountain lion 10.7.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install saying that I need to see developer. Whenever I try to open my appstore, mail or facetime it says that the programmes need to be installed and might not be compatible with this version of mac operating system. Can anyone help me?

    It's not a bad install of Mountain Lion. I've had the same thing happen to me, but it affected not only Mail, but a variety of other programs including iPhoto and MS Office, where I had to delete preferences, caches, and reinstall the OS as well as the program itself. I'm still having issues with Mail, so I've gone to another program.
    Everything was fine upon the initial install. I restarted my iMac about two weeks after the install, and that's when the issues began to happen. I've reinstalled Mountain Lion twice, but the same issues arise.
    As I mentioned above, you'll need to figure out which preferences are causing the issue, then reinstall the program, as a fresh reinstallation will do you no good unless you wipe the drive completely.
    Here's a thread that helped me with iPhoto:

  • My airport express seems to no longer be supported by Apple. Was working fine, just blinking amber. So tried to update and reset, but update will not install with Lion? Im disgusted.

    Airport express was blinking yellow. Tried to update, but my computer said update is not supported (yellow exclamation points). I have a mac pro with Lion and latest updates. So I reset express, yes that was a mistake because it was at least functioning on my stereo, now it does not function at all and shows on my wifi as "airport express", used to be labled "stereo". So it asks for an update, I download the update, but computer will not allow update to be installed. I will buy a newer one if I have to because I enjoy it's function, but I will be extremely disgusted with Apple to have to do so.

    If you are using Lion...as you indicate...is it possible that you mistakenly downloaded the incorrect version of AirPort Utility?
    Try the following version for Lion:
    AirPort Utility 5.6 for Mac OS X Lion

  • New Mac Pro with Lion and can't install FCP.

    I got a new Mac Pro with Lion and can't install FCP that worked fine in SL.  Is it not compatible?  Is it really a PowerPC program???  I'm a videographer and rely on this software and to spend $300 to continue to use it after spending a lot more for this software 4 years ago!  Tell me this is not the case and there is a solution to installing FCP.

    How to run FCP 6 (FCS 2) under Lion.
    The installer for FCP 6 (FCS 2) is a PPC app. The Programs themselves are Intel. If your trying to install FCP 6 (FCS 2) this work-around will work...
    First you need to install Rosetta from your Snow Leopard OS installation disc:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/27987.html
    After doing that you can install FCP 6 (FCS 2). Remember, after installing FCP 6 (FCS 2) you need to apply the updates. This has been discuss many times in the Final Cut Studio forum.
    If your trying to install FCP version 5.1 (FCS 1) (a PPC app) and below your out of luck....
