IMac running slow (Etrecheck in post)

Problem description:
iMac running slow, Finder becomes unresponsive. Over the last 5 years I think I've installed and removed so many programs that I've left OSX a mess. I know enough about computers to confidently make mistakes. The memory and cpu are not maxed out in Activity Monitor, yet I'm getting beach balled.

24" iMac running slower than when I bought it.

24" iMac running slower than when I bought it.

It would help us to help you if we could have some more technical info about your iMac.
If you so choose, Please download, install and run Etrecheck.
Etrecheck was developed as a simple Mac diagnostic reporting tool by a regular Apple Support forum user and technical support contributor named Etresoft.
Etrecheck is a small, unobstrusive app that compiles a static snapshot of your entire Mac hardware system and installed software.
This is a free app that has been honestly created to provided help in diagnosing issues with Macs running the new OS X 10.9 Mavericks.
It is not malware and can be safely downloaded and installed onto your Mac.
http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck
Copy/paste and post its report here in another reply thread so that we have a complete profile of your Mac's hardware and installed software so we can all help with your Mac performance issues.
Thank You.

Imac runs slow

My imac runs slow and constantly has the pinwheel up "thinking". It is only 7 months old and I dont use it for much. (pics Internet word email) Any ideas?

Try this this helped with me resolving the pinwheel problem:
Run First Aid in Mountain Lion's Disk Utility.
Went to Applications
Went to disc utility
Clicked on Hard Drive on left side of window
Clicked on Repair Disc Button
Ran for approximately 14 minutes,
While it was running noticed on one of the windows, "repairing, resolved"
And now tried copied and pasting from a website I had copied from in the past to see if that was a problem.
No pinwheel this time.

Imac running slow after installation of Mountain Lion 10.8.2

I purchased Mountain Lion OSX v.10.8.2 to access icloud. Since installing imac running slow, especially connecting to web sites.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
Note: I will respond ONLY to the original poster.

My iMac runs slow-how do I clean it up

my iMac runs slow-how do I clean it up

First, back up all data immediately unless you already have a current backup. If you can't back up, stop here. Do not take any of the steps below.
Step 1
This diagnostic procedure will query the log for messages that may indicate a system issue. It changes nothing, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'GPU |hfs: Ru|I/O e|find tok|n Cause: -|NVDA\(|pagin|timed? ?o' | tail | awk '/:/{$4=""; print}' | open -ef
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key.
The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Normally the command will produce no output, and the window will be empty. If the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window) has anything in it, stop here and post it — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the TextEdit window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
Step 2
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Reset the System Management Controller.
Run Software Update. If there's a firmware update, install it.
If you're booting from an aftermarket SSD, see whether there's a firmware update for it.
If you have a portable computer, check the cycle count of the battery. It may be due for replacement.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane. See whether there's any change.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
If you have a MacBook Pro with dual graphics, disable automatic graphics switching in the Energy Saverpreference pane for better performance at the cost of shorter battery life.
Step 3
When you notice the problem, launch the Activity Monitor 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 Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
Select All Processes from the View menu or the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for User, System, and Idle at the bottom of the window.
Select the Memory tab. What value is shown in the bottom part of the window for Swap used?
Next, select the Disk tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in andWrites out.)
Step 4
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. 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. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

HT3964 1st problem was IMac running slow. Shut down and unplugged several times with each time reboot being worse. Now, unplug reboot and eventually wallpaper background comes up but there are no icons?

1st problem was IMac running slow. Shut down and unplugged several times with no correction. Eventually, shut down, unplug and reboot resulted in wallpaper background eventually coming on screen but no icons. Nothing after that.

Kurt, do you know which exact iMac this is?
Have you blown the dust out lately?
Does it do better if allowed to cool off for a couple of hours?
What do you see if you hold Option or alt key at bootup?
Does it boot from the install disc holding c key at bootup?

What makes a ten year old iMac run slow?

what makes a 8 year old iMac run slow? Its 2.16 ghz intel core 2 duo processor Memory 2gb 667 mhx ddr2 sdram

What Mac OS are you running?
See if any of these items apply:
1) Are you running any anti-virus/internet security applications?
2) Are you running any "cleaning/tune-up/optimizations" applications?
3) Any peer-to-peer or torrent downloading software?
4) Any third-party disk backup software that came bundled with an external hard drive?
5) Any online backup scheme other than iCloud (Carbonite; GoogleDrive; MS One Drive)?
6) Did your financial institution ask you to install Trusteer EndPoint Protection (also known as Trusteer Rapport)?
An overly full hard drive can slow things down, too, especially in a computer with only 2GB RAM.

IMac runs slow, restart solves for a few hours ...

Hi, for some week's my iMac has began to run slower. The browsers ( Firefox & Safari ) become unresponsive as do Finder, other App's and the computer generally until i have to force quit and restart. Then everything is fine for several hours until gradually the same issue reoccurs. The longer i leave it , the slower things become until i actually have to power down manually.
When i think back the problems may have started after i had issues with websites not loading properly ( Sky News Uk was my homepage ) I struggled to find a solution but eventually upgraded Adobe flash player for Mac and maybe Microsoft Silverlight and then the sites loaded correctly. I can't remember exactly but i'm pretty sure this was before the slowing down started to be a problem.
I apologize in advance for my poor technical knowledge but any help is appreciated.
I've included the EtreCheck results which i hope may be of some help.
Thanks
Problem description:

Imac runs slow beach ball all the time, imac runs slow beach ball all the time

can any one help imac runs very slow and every click the beach ball is at hand is this thing going to crash

Hi DylanLauren,
From your post I see that your Mac is running slower than it should be. There are several things that may attribute to this slowness, of which you can find troubleshooting in the article linked to below.

Imac runs slower and disk drive no longer supported

I am not tech savvy. I am writing this for help. My 2009 imac has been upgraded each year. Now that I have Yosemite, things run slower. I thought keeping current was a good thing, but now I realize it might not be. Also, why has apple discontinued support of the disk drive for iphoto, idvd, and iweb. I loved using those items and creating things. Now my only option for saving photos is to put them on a flash drive. I was told there are apps, but I don't know which ones. I never knew that things would be discontinued and not usable. There should be a warning to dummies like me who don't know that apple gives then takes away. I thought each upgrade made things easier, safer, and better. Guess that is not the case. If anyone can tell me what to do so that my disk drive will work with iphoto, let me know. Also, any easy to follow steps are greatly appreciated as I am a "simple" user. Thank you.

You need to upgrade iPhoto to 9.6.
I don't use iWeb, but IDvd runs fine for me. Yes, Apple has discontinued support for them, but that was several years ago.

IMac runs slow when copying through network port

Ive been noticing an issue with my new iMac where everything I copy through my network to another computer everything starts running slow. What gives? How can I correct?

10.2.0.3? Why? This is software that has been in desupport mode for 2+ years. If nothing else at least patch to 10.2.0.5.
That said please run this query on each node when it is slow and post the results. You will need to adjust the snap_id to your current AWR snapshot range.
SELECT dhs.begin_interval_time, b1.instance_number, b2.value RECEIVED,
b1.value "RECEIVE TIME", ((b1.value/b2.value)*10) "AVG RECEIVE TIME (ms)"
FROM sys.wrh$_sysstat b1, sys.wrh$_sysstat b2, dba_hist_snapshot dhs
WHERE b1.stat_id = '1388758753'
AND b2.stat_id = '326482564'
AND b1.instance_number = 10
AND b1.instance_number = b2.instance_number
AND b1.snap_id >= 23000
AND b1.snap_id = b2.snap_id
AND b1.snap_id = dhs.snap_id
ORDER BY b1.snap_id;
SELECT dhs.begin_interval_time, b1.instance_number, b2.value RECEIVED,
b1.value "RECEIVE TIME", ((b1.value/b2.value)*10) "AVG RECEIVE TIME (ms)"
FROM sys.wrh$_sysstat b1, sys.wrh$_sysstat b2, dba_hist_snapshot dhs
WHERE b1.stat_id = '1759426133'
AND b2.stat_id = '2877738702'
AND b1.instance_number = 10
AND b1.instance_number = b2.instance_number
AND b1.snap_id >= 23000
AND b1.snap_id = b2.snap_id
AND b1.snap_id = dhs.snap_id
ORDER BY b1.snap_id;also run these:
SELECT inst_id , event , total_waits, time_waited
FROM gv$system_event
WHERE event IN ('gc buffer busy acquire', 'gc buffer busy release')
ORDER BY time_waited DESC;
SELECT inst_id, current_master, previous_master, COUNT(*)
FROM gv$gcspfmaster_info
WHERE current_master <> previous_master
GROUP BY inst_id, current_master, previous_master
ORDER BY 1,2,3;

My iMac 27" 2012 drops Wifi

Hey Guyz,
I bought new iMac couple of days back, Im facing serious wifi problem, after 5-10 minutes my iMac drops Wifi conection and if i search for available wifi it shows nothing, while i'm conected with my wifi via, MBP, iPhone, iPad. then i restart my machine and get the conection back for arround 5-10 minutes then again same problem, is it hardware or something went wrong with OS X, i have updated my OS to 10.7.4 after unboxing.
any help most welcome.
Regards
Junaid

Hi Wap,
Thankx for your reply and concern, yes i know i can call in fact I have lined up to do so, but i guess i figured out the problem, ill try one more day then ill decide, attached is the shot and i usually gets off the wifi after getting this msg.
Today i realised when i click ok my splash streamer gets disconects and then connects by itself, yesterday after clicking ok my wifi loses conection then no chance to see any available wifi, luckily today this msg popedup so many times but not disturbed my wifi so what i did i uninstalled splash streamer and not getting this msg any more and since 8 hours im on wifi and no problems, i dont know what this msg belongs to, but i guess splash was the reason which was making conflict, i'll see it tomorow again and if this thing showed up ill reinstall Lion and if after that this problem occurs ill call them. in any case you deserve 5 points for helping me and showing your concern, Thanks a lot. i'll post an update.
