ITunes running extremely sluggish
Hello.
I have had a 5th generation iPod and a constantly updated iTunes since xmas.
iTunes has always run a little sluggish. Delaying and partially freezing when I plug my iPod in, but normally pulled out pretty quickly. Lately though, it freezes badly whenever I even put a cd in and my iPod requires about 20min worth of fuss to get it to recognize it and update it. It also stalls a while when I try and edit song info. Doesn't want to open either anymore.
I have a Dell P4 at 1.4Ghtz with Win XP Pro. Runs everything else very well, just doesn't seem to fit with iTunes.
Any help/suggestions greatly appreciated =).

Extremely sluggish MBP (mid 2010) on Mountain Lion
Hello All,
I have a mid-2010 13" MBP (2.4 GHz C2D, 4GB RAM) which runs extremely sluggish on the Mountain Lion. I do not have Windows installed on my Mac. Most of the usage is for browsing, videos and MS-Office. Booting up from sleep takes much longer than earlier; restarting the mac takes even longer The Mac was much faster with the last OSX version: Snow Leopard. I am not even considering to OSX Mavericks for the fear of slowing down the system further.
Should I downgrade to Snow Leopard? I do not see too many features that I will be missing out on.
Or should I upgrade the RAM to 8GB? This is less preferable cos I'm unlikely to sell my existing 4GB RAM and will have to spend ~$100 on additional RAM.
Or is there any other option?
Any help in this regard is greatly appreciated.
ThanksBack up all data in target disk mode. The internal drive has malfunctioned, or you have some other hardware fault. I suggest you have the machine tested by a service provider, but if you want to continue trusting it, you can reinstall OS X by booting the working Mac into Recovery and installing onto the non-working Mac, which is still in target mode. The results will depend on what caused the failure.

PC running extremly slow with iTunes
Hello all,
Question is why my laptop would be running extremly slow with cover flow when it has more than enough horsepower to run almost any application (2.33 dual core, 512 graphics card, 2gig ram). iTunes runs just fine on my work laptop with cover flow, and its specs arent on par with my personal laptop. The only difference i can think of is that the work laptop (the good one) is running xp pro and the home is running vista 32bit. the other difference i can think of is that at home, all the music is stored via external HD while on the work laptop the files are stored locally on the laptops hard drive.
any advice would be greatly appreciated
Cheers!Vista has been reported to be a bit more buggy/laggy/unstable with iTunes. Music running of an external will also be noticeably slower and more jumpy than running off an internal. You answered your own question.

Finder sluggish freezes up most applications running extremely slow
all applications are running extremly slow even crashing. finder window opens cursor just spins all the time..all typing is paused i type it shows up seconds later
Ho much free space on your hard drive? At least 10 GB needed for optimal functioning of OSX.
Verify your hard drive and permissions and repair if necessary.
First, if at all possible make a backup of the drive in its present configuration. If something goes wrong during repair attempts and makes things worse you will have a backup. You will have to decide how to work this in the light of any present backups you may have, for example, a backup that may be a few days out of date. In that case you may want to keep that one and make a second backup of this as they are now, though I realize people often don't have a lot of empty drives sitting around.
Next, boot from the installer disk, select language if applicable, choose utilities, run Disk Utility and verify (and repair if necessary) the drive. Then repair the permissions on your computer. You can also repair permissions from DU on your main drive while booted, but to properly verify and repair your drive you have to run it from a drive other than the boot drive. A limited repair is also performed as part of a Safe Mode boot.

From BDaqua (couldn't have said it better):
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer (Edit: Do not use this disc if it is not the same general version as what you have currently on your computer, e.g. use a Tiger disc for a Tiger drive, not a Panther disc), then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk.
Then Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes."
Try Applejack for a general check.

Very informative [Macworld Applejack article|http://www.macworld.com/article/135377/applejack15.html]
Some general maintenance tips, but don't overdo it with these utilities because OSX does a lot of this automatically and if you are experience problems like this it isn't due to bad "maintenance" but likely due to something like an over-full hard drive.

Macbook Pro running extremely slow since updating to Yosemite
Hello All,
I am new to the community and I'm hoping your pooled expertise can assist me with my issues. I went ahead and posted the results of my diagnostic scan below. My main concerns are that my Macbook Pro is now extremely slow after OSX updates. Also, laptop is running extremely hot to touch. I have mentioned other ongoing issues. I offer thanks in advance for any assistance.
Problem description:
Macbook Pro 13":
Purchased in mid-2010.
Most Recent Issue (Main Concern):
(1) I recently updated OS X from Mountain Lion to Maverick. Computer began running extremely slow and “jerky.”
(1.1) Shortly after this I updated to OS X Yosemite. Computer runs, and types, even slower than before.
Ongoing Issues (Greater than one year):
(1) Extremely short battery life (may last two hours on full charge)
(2) Macbook runs extremely hot to touch (fan runs continuously but can’t begin to keep it cool)
(3) SD Card reader doesn't recognize/open an SD card when inserted.
Lex Cschellings Requested the Following:
No obvious elements in the list.
This may well be a dying disk and/or a very bad battery.
Do following:
make a new etrecheck list and in the problem description put what Applications->Utilities->SystemInformation says about the battery (under the Power heading in the left panel): give cycle count and battery condition.
Then post the link in a new thread.
In the meantime the crash report is probably a French Dictionary issue (font? garcon garçon) you have installed, uninstall that and see if it happens again.

Ummmm, could you ellaborate on how you plan to turn to Windows because iTunes (an application that runs on Windows) is running slow? -
Internet running extremely slow/hanging up
My mac is running extremely slowly while connected to the Internet. It sometime will get to a site and sometimes will hang up and time out. I have an older pc also connected to this wireless connection and it is running very sluggishly too. Can anyone help me? This computer is about a year old and I dob't know enough about it to try and fix things on my own. TIA!!
I am having the same trouble with my Mac. Once I am logged onto Firefox it is generally O.K. but if I leave Firefox and later try to connect again it won't load and I have to shut down the computer and restart in order to get back on the internet.
Help!!! -
IWeb Running Extremely SLOW...
I am running the latest version on iWeb.
I have about 8 or so photo albums included in my site and the software is extremely sluggish when switching between albums or to the page that shows the albums. It was not doing this earlier, when I was working on the site. I have restarted, rebooted and re-powered, none have resolved the issue.
Any ideas on how I can eliminate the extremely slow speed of the iWeb software, seems to have just come about.
Thanks for your help.Flash Album Exporter is good and JAlbum is incredible and has free storage too if you need it...

Because they are flash, the info is pulled from a separate file on your server and all the images don't have to load with the page.
There are lots of other alternatives and I'm sure others will suggest them.

Mac is running EXTREMELY slowly
Hello everyone! I'm new to Macs, and I've been quite satisfied with mine. However, I've run into quite the odd issue. Recently (as of a few months) my Mac has started to run extremely slowly. I've done everything on the Internet until I got massively ****** off and formatted it - this seemed to fix it. That time I thought it was a full HD, as it was indeed quite full and I had several large files. However, as of yesterday, it started getting massively slow AGAIN. This time it was not a full HD as I had only 60gb occupied and +200gb free. Again quite ****** off I am formatting it again - in fact I'm posting this from the iPhone as it formats right now.
Now this isn't an old Mac - I bought it in 2009 - and I don't think I do anyhing outrageous with it, really, so I'd really like to know what possibly may be happening. Usually when the "snail mode" begins to happen no force seems able to fix it. Repair permissions shows me several wrong permissions but doesn't seem to actually repair them. Cleaning up uselessness with OnyX doesn't seem to solve anything. When it starts to get truly slow nothing short of shutting down and leaving it that way seems to work - and the next day it seems better, just to get slow again. It doesn't seem to be hardware, as formatting sort of worked previously. Even the gray screen when you turn it on and the login screen get slow - even typing the password. This is quite annoying indeed.
In the last format I moved my iTunes folder to my external HD (which I keep connected; it's a 1TB Samsung formatted to NTSF, and which I used a 3rd party plugin thingy to format and access). Everything other than apps I keep there. The only reasonably heavy apps I had a game (The Sims 3 + all expansion packs) and Photoshop, which I rarely use. This time the slow down began after Sims 3 started crashing so badly I had to forcibly shutdown everything. This happened a few times. I'd understand if the game was slow, but could it have caused such a massive system breakdown?
My machine is an iMac running Leopard (completely updated). It's 20'', Core 2 Duo, with 2gb RAM. I'll be eternally grateful if someone can help me fix these issues for good.
Many thanks from Brazil! > System Preferences > Account > Log-In Items > Remove your login items
Also check your Activity Monitor > to see what is running as-well.
Also based on what you wrote before try repairing the disk.
Put in the system disks and boot to them. Repair the disk from there.
Also check out some HDD scanning software, check your HDD for "bad blocks" the SMART scan doesn't usually catch them
I hope this helps!

Machine running extremely slow
I am noticing my machine is running extremely slow. Even with out any Apps open my system memory is only at around 30% so not sure where the band width hog is? Looking at the activity monitor there are allot of things going on / most of which I do not know what they are.
I just ran an EtreCheck - does anyone here know of a way I can stream line my system to run faster and not chock so much?
Thanks

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in 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.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Itunes starts extremely slow after an update of windows 8.1.
It takes up to 10 minutus.
If I see the appliction log in event viewer then I see the following errors on the Bonjour service.
For instance:
Client application bug: DNSServiceResolve(a8:fa:d8:3a:1e:8f@fe80::aafa:d8ff:fe3a:1e8f._apple-mobdev2._t cp.local.) active for over two minutes. This places considerable burden on the network.
followed by
SendWakeupPacket error: sent -1 bytes: 10065
What can this be?
Already thanks,
JohnI did all the step with save mode and that didn't gave the same result.
Then I created a new account and there itunes started up normally.
So I contued with the user section.
I removed the itunes directory from
c:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
This gave the same result in not starting up.
Then I removed the itunes directory from
c:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
The a popup appears that the Bonjour Service has been disabled.
I looked in services and saw that is was still running.
But I tried to restart this service and it took a long time to stop this service.
Even if I selected restart the Bonjour Service didn't start.
Manually starting was not a problem.
Clicking OK on the popup let itunes start quickly. And closing and starting it again was also quickly.
So Matt thanks for your answer.
If it happens again I have to see if it was the removing of the itunes directory from roaming or restarting the Bonjour Service. -
Macbook Pro 2012 extremely sluggish and unresponsive
I have a 2012 MBP that I purchased new earlier this year that has been a real pain to use.
Spec:
2.3ghz quad core i7
4GB RAM
500GB HD
OSX 10.8.4
Activity monitor always looks like there is tons of CPU and memory available, but I get constant beach balling just switching folders in Finder or opening a new tab in Chrome. Waking the thing up after opening the lid sometimes takes 3-4 minutes.
Here is a screenshot of my Activity Monitor from a few minutes ago when it was acting extremely sluggish. I'm concerned that the page outs might be high? Any advice? Is it normal for these machines to act like this? My 2009 MBP that I replaced with this machine was never this bad...You need more RAM. You're swapping far too much to the hard drive so that you've so little 'free' RAM that I'm surprised that you can do much at all.
The two best RAM distributors are Crucial and OWC. OWC tends to be a bit more expensive, so I usually go with Crucial. Visit the Crucial website and click on the System Scanner tab - a small app will download. Run it and Crucial will give you the recommended upgrades for your model (which can hold up to 16GB of RAM).
Also see the X-Lab's Tuning Mac OS X Performance as well as Thomas Reed's Mac Performance Guide.
Good luck,

ITunes + Ping extremely slow with Library on external HD
Hi,
My Library is on an external HD connected to an Airport Extreme base station. My MacBook is connected wired to Airport, so there are no possible wifi connection issues.
iTunes is extremely slow since version 10. If I select a song and want to select another one, I've got a spinning beach ball for at least 20s. Change a rating: 20s delay. Every move I make: at least 20s delay...
My guess: every time I select a song, iTunes connects to Ping to fill up the dropdown menu next to the song title. Disabling Ping doesn't help. I tried in Terminal "defaults write com.apple.iTunes hide-ping-dropdown -bool TRUE", but this merely hides the dropdown menu, it doesn't stop the functionality.
iTunes is basically not usable anymore.
Any suggestions?talie wrote:
I am running iTunes 11 with the media files stored on an external hard-drive. This setup works great except for one thing:
If I am currently downloading something from the iTunes Store and I quit iTunes
Don't quit iTunes.
How can I make iTunes see the interrupted download and not have to restart the download from the beginning?
You cannot. -

You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
Back up all data before making any changes.
Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. If the Downloads button (with the icon of a downward-pointing arrow) is showing in the toolbar, click it and then click Clear in the box that appears. The download history will be removed. Any change?
If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab in the Preferences window and uncheck the box marked
Stop plug-ins to save power
Any change?
Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test. Any change?
If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
Follow the instructions in this support article. Any change?
Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Photos, if it's checked. Any change?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?
