Internet suddenly very slow 2011 Mac Mini
My internet has suddenly become very very slow.
Wireless.
Last week very fast.
Any ideas?
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 icon grid.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

Hi,
I'd like to thank all people supporting us (users) in these discussions, and especially the person who helped me restoring my MBP's performance,
I'm requesting once again some help for my Mac Mini which is very very slow.
Mac Mini running OS X Moutain Lion + Apple's Server add-on (a few services are running : file sharing mainly).
Thanks in advance,Hello Hedi, see how many of these you can answer...
See if the Disk is issuing any S.M.A.R.T errors in Disk Utility...
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH7029
Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on CPU%, any indications there?
How much RAM & free Disk space do you have also, click on the Memory & Disk Usage Tabs.
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
In the Memory tab of Activity Monitor, are there a lot of Pageouts? -
ACR 7.1 - very slow on Mac mini
Hi
I'm running the trial version of CS6 on a new Mac mini.
I like the features in ACR 7.1 but I'm finding it very slow.
Dragging the Temperature slider takes about 5 seconds before the image updates. Is this normal?
This is with just one Nikon D700 Nef open in ACR, and no other apps running. I've already worked the file up, making adjustments to lens correction, sharpening, noise reduction, and using a couple of adjustment brushes.
If I progressively switch these settings off, the Temperature slider gradually goes back to being reasonably responsive. But I'd like to be able to fine tune the colour after doing these other adjustments.
Any way I can speed it up?
Thanks!
Mac mini 2.7 i7, AMD 6630, 16Gb RAM, 7200rpm 750Gb HD.
Eizo CG275W
Photoshop CS6
ACR 7.1.0.354
Mountain Lion 10.8.1My dedicated CS6/ACR 7.x system is substantially more underpowered than your Mac Mini, yet I see no such lag in ACR. Dragging the Temperature adjustment slider is practically real-time, with the preview refreshing in a fraction of a second that I can barely see and have no way of measuring.
I'm now running ACR 7.2RC1, but I don't remember seeing a lag in ACR 7.1 either.
My main working machine is a Power Mac (PPC) G5 Quad with 16 GB of RAM, on which 11.0.2 is the last version of Photoshop to run, so I have the Mac-Intel system described below just to run ACR 7.x under Photoshop 13.0.1. I convert my raw files in ACR7.x open them in Ps 13.0.x and save them via Ethernet to an external HD connected to the G5 Quad for further processing in CS4. The Mac-Intel is used for no other purpose and the only other application I occasionally run on said Mac-Intel is TextEdit.
2007, 2GHz MacBook 2,1, Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB of RAM (can use 3 GB), 160 GB internal boot disk, dedicated FireWire400 external HD for Ps scratch disk, external Time Machine HD. Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
I literally rescued this MacBook from the trash, where it had landed when my wife was told by local Apple Macgenius staff that it was beyond repair, when in reality all that was wrong with it was a bulging battery exerting upward pressure on the track pad and keyboard. That was easy to replace for $20 or so through Amazon.com.
So, from where I sit, either you have a machine-specific problem somewhere, or the culprit in your issue is Mountain Poop. -
Hi all
I have a strange behaviour of my Mac MIni 2012. The mini is connected to the internet by LAN. When I download a file via http or ftp everything is very fast (arround 95mbit/s). But when I try to open a website in Safari, Chrome or Firefox i have to wait some seconds until the page starts rendering.after the page is rendered completely, everything works fast and smooth.
Do you have any ideas where the problem migth be? I have reinstalled Mavericks from zero yesterday. The problem resists. With my Macbook Air (conntected to the same router) and my Windows computer I dont have this problem.
THanks in advance for your help.
Greets
MarcBy any chance, do you run sophos? I had the same issue as you and fixed it on my mac mini and macbook pro by doing the following:
Sophos --> Open Preferences --> Web Protection --> General
You will need to enter your admin password after clicking the padlock in the bottom left to allow you to change settings.
From there, deactivate "Block access to malicious websites using realtime URL reputation checks". For good measure, I also deactivated "Block malicious downloads from websites".
Hope this helps! -
Airport very slow with Mac mini
I have a Powerbook and a Mac Mini. Both have airport wireless internet.
When I put them side-by-side, the Powerbook gets a strong internet connection, the Mac mini is very weak and often loses the internet altogether.
Both the Powerbook and Mini have 1 GB Ram.
Seems like they should get identical or at least very similar reception.
Help!Yes, I would expect them to have roughly similar reception.
The Mac mini is certainly still under warranty. The Airport card inside your Mac mini is not considered to be a user-serviceable part. Therefore best solution - take your Mac mini to your Apple dealer, explain the problem, and get them to fix it. -
Xcode 4.0.2 is very slow on Mac Mini
Hi,
I have installed xcode 4.0.2 on my Mac Mini, but it is keeping the system very slow.I have a Mac Mini 2010 with RAM 4 Gb and the Xcode works very good.
I precisely bought it with 4 Gb thinking in it.
Without more information (RAM, model, year), I can not say you more. ¿cleaning? -
Wifi LAN VERY slow on mac mini 10.6.8
All,
I have a mac mini 1.66 intel core Duo with 2gb of RAM. The HD crashed a couple months ago and so it has a clean version of 10.6.8 on it.
In my house I have a Motorola modem (comcast) hooked to a vonage box with wifi. Off this we run 2 MBP's a wifi printer, and the Mini.
Both MBP's will get 10mb down and 3-5mb up on speedtest.net.
The Mini will get .9 down and .7 or so up. It also became non-responsive using VNC to control it, so it's not so much that the internet is slow, but more that it just isn't connecting to the LAN with any speed. It is connected to my router (no security) with a signal/noise of -75/-98 and a transmit rate of 48.
I had shared my Dish Network box out via ethernet (airport sharing to ethernet) and had done the terminal prompt fix which is found all over the net to allow DHCP on internet sharing. However, it doesn't matter if I turn off internet sharing, the local speeds are still just terribly slow.
This is a big problem since it's used as our media center for streaming netflix, etc...
Any help? Where to start?
Thanks,If reinstalling doesn't help, you'll probably need to contact Macroplant support:

BT Broadband suddenly very slow on Mac OS X 10.5.8
Hello,
I'm posting on behalf of my dad as his broadband is now so slow as to be almost unusable. He lives in the Suffolk countryside but should still be able to receive broadband speeds of up to at least 1.5mb/s on his local exchange. His BT broadband service has never been brilliant but has recently slowed right down. He has an iMac 2.66 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo running OS X 10.5.8. He has tried upgrading to a BT Home 3.0 router but this has not improved his broadband speed. I have tried to run the BT speedtester but I can't get it to work because it says Java is not installed despite it appearing to be enabled as a plugin. I have tried this in both Safari and Firefox. I have asked him to try the speedtester available on the uSwitch website which has recorded a download speed of only 0.2 and upload of 0.1mb/s. I would be very greatful if anyone has any suggestions as I am going to visit him tomorrow. I intend to try plugging the hub directly into the main socket via a microfilter. I also plan to try upgrading his operating system to snow leopard but I doubt that this will improve his connection. The quality of the phone line seems to have decreased recently too. Is my only option to try ringing BT customer services?
Thank-you!Hello,
Have upgraded to Mac OS X 10.6.3 and now able to run BT speedtester:
Also here are hub stats:
Ran Uswitch speed tester again:
This suggests that we should be able to get up to 2.5Mb on this exchange.
Have tried quiet line test, line is not silent, there is low level interference on wire connected handset. Have tried connecting hub directly to master socket which has given a slight improvement in performance but still to my mind unacceptably slow. Could not repeat BT speedtest as limited to one test per hour. Ran Uswitch test again:
I know that he has just changed from Hub 2 to Hub 3 and it will take time to settle but broadband speed had already declined notably (to the point of being barely usable) on Hub2 before switching to Hub3.
Any further advice gratefully received.... -

I have our router plugged straight into the test socket. The missus then plugged a landline phone into the normal socket without a filter and the internet worked fine. After a couple of days and a few phone calls later the internet has dropped to 0.05 k/s. The landline phone has been removed so the setup is as before but it is still slow.
When I had problems before (a year or so ago) my actual downstream speed reported to be much less and I was told on here to wait a few days until it went up again. And it did.
Do I need to wait a few days again for my internet to stabilise after this incident?
I have left the router on a few days since and checking the status page above a few times it seems to be resetting itself. Once it got to 9 hours and then next time I checked it had reset and was only 2 hours in. Is it normal for the connection to be dropping by itself?

My 2011 mac mini now runs very slow. I have to wait on it to do basic things. I only have 2 GB of ram. It came with this amount and it fan fine for several years. But I upgraded to the most recent Os system and now it runs slow. What do I need? More RAM?

I will upgrade to 8GB. Thanks for the advice. Also have an older (2009) 24" IMAC and it also runs slow with the upgrade. It has 4 GB. I think I will replace it with a brand new 21 or 27 inch. Thanks for the response.

That's one way to justify a new Mac. :-) Adding more RAM to the 2009 model is cheaper, though (but I'm guessing not as much fun). -

Any suggestions on how to fix this? or anyone know what's causing it? any help would be much appreciated!
