IMac/Yosemite super sluggish
Thanks in advance to all who read and assist!
My system is moving slower and slower these days, especially during Time Machine backups, but also at other times, for reasons I can't figure out. Here is what EtreCheck says:
Problem description:
System is suddenly slowing down to the point that programs being launched become unresponsive.

It appears that the Google software may be the culprit. It's know to slow down performance. I'd remove the Google software and only use Google Drive when you need it if you must. Remove it from the User Log in Items. If you don't want to use Safari give Firefox a try. It's much better than Chrome and more secure.
You're not having memory issues as seem with the size of Pageouts you're getting but 3 GB of RAM iis marginal. Your model can utilize up to 6 GB of memory. You can replace the 1 GB module with a 4 GB module from Crucial.com or otherworldcomputing.com and see an increase in performance.
Make sure your Wacom tablet software is up to date.

My iMac (upgraded to Lion) has been behaving super sluggishly.
My iMac (upgraded to Lion) has been behaving super sluggishly. slow to open my Word docs, Slow to close webtabs,.just so S L O W. Suggestions??
I have already tried restarting... I have very few programs..just the MSOffice App. I did look at a lot of websites (looking for vacation rentals).Well - all of the above were ultimately caused by one thing, of course the one thing I didn't replace - my 5-port Netgear 1Gb switch. Got a replacement and everything is fine. Lion was simply installed at the time the switch failed.

A few days ago, my iMac became weirdly sluggish. For example, webpages are taking 15-20 seconds to render, programs take a minute or two to open (while the icon is bouncing in the dock), files take a long time to copy to a new folder, etc.
Starting up from the CDs and running Disk Utility showed no problems, although it took a long time to process the hard drive.
I've also tried resetting the pram, which did nothing.
Any sugestions would be appreciated, thanks!Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Could you please single click on Macintosh HD and then choose Get Info from the File Menu. Please post back with the Capacity, Available and Used values.
It's my experience that the most common cause of a sudden slowdown where nothing appears to have changed is the lack of free hard disk space.
Any OS needs room to breathe and you should leave about 15% of your total free.

How do I proceed from a screen showing a number of "ReadMe" files in order to open the Acrobat XI Pro program? I downloaded a 30 day free trial of the program onto my iMac (Yosemite OS).
What is the other file in that folder, not the Readme? Did you actually install the software yet? And did you read the Readme for instructions?

Wlan problem with iMac yosemite
When opening iMac it has difficulties to find WLAN network. I have to use network assistant several times and shut down the computer.
Sometimes there are no difficulties, sometimes i have to try half a dozen times.
My new iMac Yosemite was created by copying with Thunderbolt the contents of my old iMac, where I used in the beginning Airport.
Now I have cable modem.Welcome to Apple Support Communities
The screen is damaged. Take it to an Apple Store -
27" iMac Yosemite update hangs.
The original upgrade to Yosemite (10.10) took almost a full day! The computer hung during one of the reboots and just showed a blank grey screen, no apple logo, no progress bar, nothing. I left it like that for about an hour thinking it might be working in the dark... Eventually I had to power cycle. Disconnected power at the wall outlet for about 5 minutes, then reconnected and tried to start. After about 20 minutes, got to the same point, grey screen:no action, again waited at least an hour.
Then I did a safe boot. System came up OK in safe mode to the log in screen. As soon as I logged in, it proceeded with the interrupted update, which ran to completion. Yay!
Now, every update to Yosemite that arrives gives men the same grief!
To add some more, the "Pro Video Formats 2.0.1" update has installed about 4 times, and is asking to be installed again? There's no indication that it fails the update so whats going on?I saw the set hibernet mode to 0 trick and it failed. Guess I can try 3 because reinstalling OS X did nothing but cost me another few hours and a little faith in Apple. Getting annoyed as I see how many people complain of the identical issue and the fixes are variable and random. Suggests to me that it is a major design flaw in the hardware and Apple got too cute with the just works idea and didn't put a damned power button on the display so there is no manual way to do it and no 'insert a pin here' type trick to reset the thing.
Asking for a refund tomorrow. Past the 14 days so maybe they'll say no but if so then every time this happens I will swap it out. At least then I know it is a three hour fix and as I was working on this for hours today it occurred to me that if the trick is to do 57 different things and maybe one will work then that is not why I made the switch to Apple. I could plug everything in on my PC and it all 'just worked'.
Really poor customer service - the support folks are very nice and I am sure they know that this is a systemic issue but aren't allowed to say so. Feeling pretty stupid for going on faith right about now. -
Premiere super sluggish unless I use other User account
Today Pr started being super sluggish ... timeline zoom in / zoom out took 1-2 seconds per action ... loading clips slow ... etc.
So I tried logging out and logging in as another user, and then it worked fine.
My question is ... I don't want to set up a whole new account ... how do I repair / reset my main account's settings?
The only thing I cannot afford to lose is my keyboard mapping.
Should I just delete the "~/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Pro" folder? Is that enough?
Then just put back a copy of "~/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Pro/7.0/Profile.../Mac/Adobe Premiere Pro Custom.kys" ?
Mac 10.9.1That seems like a good plan, but make a copy of that folder just in case. And you may be able to accomplish the same thing by holding down the Shift and Opt keys when you launch Pr. If you hold down those keys when you start Pr from the desktop/dock/application folder, Shift will clear your plugin cache and Opt will reset your preferences. Make sure you have competely exited Pr before trying this.
Cheers,

IMac Yosemite X_v10.10.2にてFlashPlayerインストール出来ず

I see you're having connectivity issues. I'd like to help!
Do you have any other devices wirelessly connected to the printer?
Are they still able to connect?
In the meantime, I'd recommend performing a power reset on the printer. Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
I would also recommend this document:

Good morning. over the last 18 months our iMac has been sluggish and a lot spinning wheels and need to wait a while after I log in to do anything. I am running OS X version 10.9.4 2.5 ghz Intel Core i5 4 GB 1333 MHz memory and have gig HD with 218 gigs free. I checked the 'activity monitor app' under utilities and believe I see the issue. Under the 'memory' tab I see I have 4 gigs of ram and shows at the bottom I am using 3.95. So I need to add more memory?
Also, I only have a few apps installed on this including MS Office suite and maybe two smaller ones. Where can I check to see if there are apps running in background (bloatware) that I can kill/delete.
thanks for everyones help!

The 2 places I’ve seen recommended most to buy reliable RAM are below. I have purchased RAM several times from Other World Computing and have always been very satisfied with the product and service. They have on-line instructions on how to replace the RAM. OWC has also tested RAM above what Apple states is the maximum. I now have 6GB installed on a machine supposedly limited to 4 GB.

Dock/Dialog animation super sluggish after upgrade.
I'm on a Mac Pro 2011 modal. After the upgrade the Dock and Dialogs animation gets super sluggish; however, when I put Dock on the side it's smooth (the dialogs are still very sluggish) - any ideas? My MBP doesn't have any issues though
how long ago did you finish upgrading? for the first hour or so it might be sluggish because Spotlight is building its index, once that's done it should be back to normal

How do I perform system maintenance on my iMac (Yosemite)?
I would like to know how to keep my Mac clean and healthy. And I'm also trying to help out my sister who is having trouble with her iMac (Yosemite) that is sick. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
The best way to keep a Mac clean and healthy is to not install applications that claim to clean it or make it healthy. It has built in maintenance routines that run automatically and installing 3rd party cleaning etc. utilities is one of the biggest source of problems. The following has some information that may be of interest: http://www.reedcorner.net/the-myth-of-the-dirty-mac/
Regarding the trouble with your sister's Mac, it would be a good idea to start a thread with something specific in the title about what problem(s) it is having. The following also may help: http://www.thesafemac.com/mpg/ -
After Effects CS6 Interface Super Sluggish in Windows and not in OS X!?
I am switching from an "old" 2007 Mac Pro to a new custom built Win 7 64bit PC. Just starting to do work tests and noticed that the interface in AE CS6 on the new Windows machine is super sluggish. Mainly the Layer window when your scrolling through a heavy comp with tons of layers is super sluggish. Just scrolling up and down not scrubbing. Same project on the old Mac does not have this problem and the scrolling of the layers window is super smooth!? What is causing this? I even have the Hardware Accellerate mode on for the interface. Any help would be greatly appreciated because this will be an awful way to work if this is the state of AE on Windows. Thanks.
I'm having the same problem.
Interface is just pure sluggishness, on a brand new machine that rocks. Rendering is fast, but opening a comp with more than just "some" layers and a lot keyframes gets unusable. Just dragging a box to select keyframes for example is extremely sluggish.
Opened the same comp in CS5.5 and CS5 and it worked totally fine.
Any news on this? I'm more frusted with CS6 than with any other AE version until now.

Is there a pro code for a new imac and super drive?
Hi ..
No, there isn't but you might want to take a look at refurbished iMacs > Refurbished Mac Computers - Refurbished Notebooks & Desktop Computers - Apple Store (U.S.)
Refurbished products come with the same one year limited warranty as does a new product.
