iPad is running very slow. Keeps hanging up over and over

Try simply giving it a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot. See if that helps

    My iPad is very slow how do I clean it up or make it run better?

    (A) Try reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    Note: Data will not be affected.
    (B) Try reset all settings

    Note: Data will not be affected but settings for Wi-Fi, FaceTime, Message, Home Sharing will be reset

  • HT1338 My Mac book Pro is running very slow and the rainbow ball is appearing all the time. Any suggestions for clean up??

    My Mac book Pro is running very slow and the rainbow ball is appearing all the time. Any suggestions for clean up?? I have the OS X Lion system.

    As well as what a brody asked :
    - do you need more RAM? (run Activity Monitor and see how much free RAM - green - is available)
    - do you Restart fairly regularly, e.g. at least once a week, to clear out any swap or temporary files?
    - do  you need to do maintenance, e.g. clearing out caches and unused logs, etc?

  • I have just returned from a business trip to China and my Macbook is not well. My internet connection is very slow and drops out intermittently. Is there a utility I can run which might clean it up.

    Hello,
    I have very similar problem. Suddenly Firefox stopped work - It was working few days after ver. 4 update. I was looking everywhere for some solution but nothing worked.
    - uninstalled firewall - did not worked
    - added full exception for Firefox into the firewall - did not worked
    - Firefox reinstall - did not worked
    - Firefox complete reinstall (registry included) - did not worked
    - IPv6 diseabling - did not worked
    - diferent proxy options (no proxy, system proxy, autodetect proxy) - did not worked
    - new firefox profile - did not worked
    - complete coockies, history... deleted - did not worked
    - there is only one solution which partly works - I have used public proxy addresses for Firefox but the ping is (750ms), down/up (0.8MB/0.2MB originaly (10MB/2MB) and yes I have tried different proxy server from different countries from my included.
    - IE is working perfectly and without proxy
    - other companies browser - did not worked too
    - only IE is working
    - I have used three different malware, trojans, spyware, anti-virus programs and nothing
    It seems to me as hopeless situation or very clever move from Microsoft, I am forced to use IE - at least this works
    Any ideas, solutions?
    System Windows 7, firewall Comodo Internet security
    Thanks everyone for the help

  • Hi, I just started a new movie and the program is running very slow. Is there a way to clean up my iMovie program so that it goes faster? Please help.

    Hi, I just started a new movie and the program is running very slow. Is there a way to clean up my iMovie program so that it goes faster? Please help.

    There is nothing you can do with iMovie program itself.  Slow response in usually due to a shortage of system resources (CPU, RAM and disk space).
    How much free disk space do you have on your boot drive and what is the capacity of the drive?
    You can check memory utilization while running iMovie using Activity Monitor (in Applications/Utilities).  What does the Memory tab show for Swap used?
    Are you running many other processor-intensive applications a the same time?
    If you have a lot of events and projects, it will help a bit to hide the ones you are not using by moving them from your iMovie Projects and iMovie Events folders into an enclosing folder so iMovie doesn't load them.
    Geoff.

  • HT1338 Is there a Mac System Clean-up? My computer is running very slow and freeze all the times

    I don't know why my computer is running very slow and keeps freezing all the times.  It would take at least 2-3 min to load up after the not using it for 5 min.  For instance when I type my paper or doing anything on the computer and leave for a fews min after come back it would not start and the icon keeps on spinning.
    Thanks

    Pretty much all "clean-up" utilities will just make things worse.
    You need to determine what it is that is causing the problem.
    How much RAM do you have?
    For the following, report what you get when the system is running slow and beachballing.
    Open Activity Monitor (Utilities folder) and click on System Memory tab at the bottom of the screen. What does it say for Page Outs?
    Also, at the top of the window, select All Processes. Click on the %CPU header until the arrow points down. Anything pop up at the top of the list that is using a very high percentage of CPU?
    What you describe can be caused by incompatible third-party software. Boot into Safe mode and see if the problems still exist. Safe mode will be a little slower than normal, but you shouldn't see the system freeze up.

  • My father has a 1.25 GHz Power PC G4 Mac Mini with 1 GB of memory. He is running 10.5.8. It is running very slowly. Should I do a clean install of his system?

    His internet is very slow though is on a cable modem. Pages take forever to download. Mail doesn't get delivered. I've tried the usual unplug, plug.
    Maybe it's time for a new machine. He bought his in 2006. The guy is almost 90 (old people and computers - there ought to be a law!) and is on a budget.

    A clean install sounds like a good idea.
    Watch those remarks about us old people. We might get insulted. Remember we have the experience and the money.

  • My mac pro 2008 is running very very slow. I need to give it a good clean.Any suggestions?

    My 2008 mac pro is running slower and slower, what can I do to get it running faster?

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    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.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
    Otherwise, take the steps below when you notice the problem.
    Step 1
    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 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 System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
    Next, select the Disk Activity tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
    Step 2
    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 (command-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.

    Since you use Time Machine, erasing your Mac and rebuilding your work environment is likely to be the least time-consuming choice:
    To erase and install Mavericks read: OS X Mavericks: Erase and reinstall OS X.
    The excerpt "Before you erase, back up your essential files" is critical. To do that you can use Time Machine, or simply copy your essential software and other files to a backup device. Depending on the amount of data you have, a USB flash memory stick might be sufficient.
    To migrate your essential documents subsequent to erasing and reinstalling Mavericks read: OS X: How to migrate data from another Mac using Mavericks and follow the procedure under Time Machine or other disk migration.
    When doing so, select only your previous User account and do not select "Applications", "Computer and Network Settings" or "Other files and folders". De-select those choices. Subsequent to using Setup Assistant, you will need to reinstall the essential software you may require, once again remembering to install software only from their original sources, and omitting all non-essential software.

    For starters the Blackberry software hasn't been updated in forever and is incompatible with Yosemite, remove it per the developers instructions. k9 mac optimizer is malware and must be removed.
    What is all of the Motorola software for? Do you need it? You have quite a bit of other junk on there that you probably don't need and I'm not sure what all of it is for but the BB software and K9 for sure is in the list of known offenders for slow downs.

  • My Macbook Pro started to run slow, should i install Antivirus or Clean up app?

    Hey, What is the best Antivirus for Macbook Pro, my mac is getting kind of slow, and what should i do, just install the Antivirus, or what is the best CleanUp or performance fixer, please my mac needs to be boosted up or something.

    Your Mac does not need an anti virus program because the Mac os does not get viruses.  If you want to check for malware and trojens use ClamXav.
    How large is your hard drive and how much hard drive space do you have left?

  • My imac is running very slow.  How do I "clean" it up?

    What maintenance should I be doing and what else can I do to make it run faster?

  • My Macbook pro is running slow. Should I do a clean install before installing Mountain Lion?

    My Macbook Pro has been taking forever to start up, and open windows, plus I get a lot of the spinning wheel of slow death when I'm working in my design programs. I HATE messing with my systems, because something always seems to go wrong.
    Also, I have an iMac too. Can I install it on both machines if it is downloaded instead of a disk? Is that allowed?

    Fix your Machines BEFORE Upgrading the OS... Otherwise you will only compound your issues...
    Basically... Make sure you have enough Free Hard Drive space for your Mac to Perform as expected...
    Rule of thumb is about 25 GB +
    This is what Apple has to say.

    You can install it on any computer you own... Providing the System Requirements are met...
    Install Mountain Lion on multiple Computers
    Log into App Store on your other Computer(s), being sure to use the Apple ID that Originally purchased ML...

  • I installed Firefox 4 two days ago, and my system immediately began to run very slow and/or crashes. Should I re-install earlier version (that opened with google instead of yahoo)? If so, how do I get it?

    Additionally I am getting a McAfee warning that "McAfee cannot update you software. Check your internet connection, and then try updating your software manually. If the problem continues please reinstall this software."

    You might try using the add-on 'NoSquint' which allows numerous zoom options specific to each page you visit & keeps your settings - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nosquint/
    If you want to go back to 3.6x, you will find it here:
    http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    In most cases you can simply "upgrade" (meaning downgrade) directly from the installation. It would be a good idea to save your passwords & bookmarks just to be on the safe side.

  • My plug in has crashed and i cant delete yahoo tool bar pc is running very slow it was a 32 bit i had upgraded to a64 bitmy screen hs a huge gap in it at top and bottom what should i do

    want remove yahoo and use fox fire alone i think i created a registry problem when i down loaded the yahoo toolbar new to computers but can follow instructions please help cant find the yahoo in my control panel to remove the toolbar ect

    Do you know of any specific tasks or situations that cause it to perform poorly? If so, make a note of those and demonstrate them for Apple. Do NOT, under any circumstances, restart the machine. You want it at its worst when you take it in. If you try to do any of those magic resets, it may just reset things just long enough for Apple to proclaim it healthy. If Apple does that anyway, then there are plenty of opportunities to try those things later after your warranty has expired.
    I wish I knew exactly when it does this, but it doesn't always happen. It sometimes does, and sometimes doesn't. I thought about this, too. But the problem is that it's really hard to catch a time or figure out what causes these symptoms to occur. I haven't taken it to Apple because I thought it'll just be a waste of time because they'll probably say that it's healthy so they don't have to put any money/effort to try and fix it...
