Lion keeps freezing, computer slower, WiFi problems

Ever since installing Lion my computer is much slower everything is lagging. My computer never frezes and now it freezes all the time mostly when i am trying to open something in the dock. the Wifi takes forever to conncet. Is Apple going to fix this or should I just revert back to Snow Leopard? I only updated to use Cloud but my computers a mess now.

If you JUST installed lion, your computer will have to reindex itself via spotlight, which takes up cpu and time. How much ram do you have?
If you're already going to go through the process of uninstalling lion, try reinstalling it first to see if your issues pursist. hold cmd+R while rebooting. run disk utility from here (the recovery partition) to verify and repair the disk you're installing lion on, and then reinstall lion. Make sure you are connected to a reliable internet source, or plug in your ethernet if you can, and turn off wifi before proceeding to install lion.
Let me know how everything turns out. There is no doubt that lion needs some improvement but it's also third party applications that seem to have a really tough time adjusting to lion and they all need to be updated. (this is typical for new OS releases, though companies have a good amount of time before Lion is released they usually fail to find all the bugs until it hits the masses.
feel free to file some feedback to apple as we are all just users like yourself. http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html

  • Since I upgraded to Moutain Lion I'm dealing with wifi problems : no connection or random connection

    Since I upgraded to Moutain Lion I'm dealing with wifi problems : no connection or random connection. With  OS X Lion wifi was OK.

    So, Darrall, it seems to be fixed.  Mind you, this has happened through a seemingly unrelated, but hopefully replicable sequence of events.  You be the judge.
    I went to my other login account, which as it happens is also an admin account.  Voila, the secondary click worked fine.  So I returned to my primary account, where I did the following:
    First, I unpaired the trackpad.  then I remembered I needed something to move the mouse with, so I re-paired the magic mouse I'd had before.  I thought I'd turned off the trackpad, but apparently not, so the computer re-paired it automatically. None of this had any immediate effect, as you'd imagine.
    Then I went to Mission Control in Preferences. There, I deselected "Show dashboard as a space", and in the hotcorners, I deselected Mission Control from the bottom left, where it had been. I didn't replace it.
    Now, my secondary click works. Uh huh. I was suspicious that it might have more to do with Mission Control and/or Dashboard than the trackpad, only because I'd beaten that horse till my arm hurt and this was all I could think of. 
    Never did I imagine this would get fixed short of creating a new login account and somehow copying everything - since I didn't know what was wrong, I could easily have copied the error too - so I'm very pleased and relieved.  If you haven't fixed yours yet, try this.  Let me know what happens!

  • Lion keeps freezing

    after doing my firmware update, my brand new iMac (Lion 10.7)  keeps freezing up and I have to hold the power button to restart it.  Is anyone else having this problem or did I get a messed up computer?

    Seriously glad it isn't just my one year old Macbook Pro that is having the problems after going from Snow Leopard to Lion. I took mine to Apple twice now, they basically think I'm stupid and even asked me if I'd dropped it!! They don't seem to recognise the problems, after a 'stress test' and some other things they sent me on my way. I was back within a week getting the entire thing wiped and reinstalling Lion - I am back to where I started with a very unhappy computer. It crashes on startup, on the log-in page and has to be manually turned off and on several times before it'll even let me on the thing. It can crash whilst simply opening Finder or when I only have Safari open. Back to the genius bar for me....

  • MACBOOK Air/ OS Lion Keeps Freezing and restarting "because of an error"

    Hi,
    My Macbook keeps freezing - keyboard and touchpad do not respond and then after a few seconds it restarts. A Screen comes on to say that it restarted "because of a problem" Often it freezes at login. It has frozen at least 6 times as I type this. This is the console diagnostic for the last hang. Anyone advice?
    Thank you,
    Al.

    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 the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    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. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    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? 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.

  • Mountain lion keeps freezing

    I Just installed mountain lion and my Mac keeps freezing. Does anyone else have ththat same problem?

    Hello, let's see if we can find the cause...
    1. Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions, reboot & test.
    2.
    See if the Disk is issuing any S.M.A.R.T errors in Disk Utility...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH7029
    3. Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on CPU%, any indications there?
    4. How much RAM & free space do you have also, click on the Memory & Disk Usage Tabs.
    5. Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
    6. In the Memory tab of Activity Monitor, are there a lot of Pageouts?
    7. One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
    Reboot, test again.
    If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
    Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
    Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

  • 10.10.3 slow, wifi problem etc...

    I am running a Mac Mini 2011, 2ghz 17, 8 gigs of ram and 1tb. I had Yosemite installed and was working fine, no problems until 10.10.3
    1. Wifi - slow, un responsive
    2. Applications - slow to open and unresponsive at times
    3. iTunes - trying to watch playback on trailers, and they buffer (wifi problem)
    4. Photos - just not a fan but maybe it will grow on me
    I don't typically complain, but this is getting a bit frustrating as this is my main computer. Other are my work laptops running windows. Also, since I watch a lot of content via the net etc. and pretty much everything is at a dead stop. I have yet to really check every application or function but assume they will perform the same.
    I have reset my network a few time, cleared out some old files and some restarts on the machine itself. Last resort will be to wipe it clean and try a new install. Any other suggestions before I take this route?
    Thanks

    Linc,
    I ran a few applications and started looking at the logs. There is one common theme. This is what I found. The Raid failure to me is confusing. I have 2 500gig drives but its setup as 1TB, no raid configuration. Let me know your thoughts on this. I figured, this may be what is causing all the other problems.

  • Mac os Lion keep freezing

    Its been more than 2 weeks my Laptop keeps freezing for 3-5 seconds. Especially when i m using Firefox, Itunes and VLC player. I cant take it anymore, Please help....
    Thanks

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software -- potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions -- they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
    These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
    Below are four lines of text in monospaced type, which are UNIX shell commands. They’re harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of running these commands, search this site for other discussions in which they’ve been used without any report of ill effects.
    Some of the commands will line-wrap in your browser, but each one is really just 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, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
    To begin, launch the Terminal application; e.g., by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search.
    Step 1
    Copy or drag -- do not type -- the line below into the Terminal window, then press return:
    kextstat -kl | awk ' !/apple/ { print $6 $7 } '
    Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.)
    Step 2
    Repeat with this line:
    sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk ' !/0x|apple|com\.vix|edu\.|org\./ { print $3 } '
    This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning.
    Step 3
    launchctl list | sed 1d | awk ' !/0x|apple|edu\.|org\./ { print $3 } '
    Step 4
    ls -1A {,/}Library/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Sta}* 2> /dev/null
    Important: If you synchronize with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, change it to something like “[email protected]” before posting.
    Remember, this is all drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste, whichever you prefer -- no typing, except your password.
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • Downloaded lion update and computer SLOW...10 min to get email?

    Computer now more than slow after downloading lion update?  10 minutes for an email

    Hello
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [[Troubleshoot and diagnose Firefox problems#w_5-reinstall-firefox|here]].
    <b>WARNING:</b> Do not run Firefox's uninstaller or use a third party remover as part of this process, because that could permanently delete your Firefox data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be easily recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u>
    Please report back to say if this helped you!
    Thank you.

  • My 21.5" quad core i5 iMac mid 2011 with LION keeps freezing.

    this has never happened before while using snow leopard, but when using lion suddenly it freezes when i was on youtube and it has frozen when i was syncing my ipod. the other bad thing about it, is the computer doesn't know that it has frozen and it wont automatically restart even though i have the setting on.
    hopefully this is just teething problems since lion is a new operating system, but i'd expect more from a company like apple.
    any suggestions? or maybe a patch will come out?

    hello,
    I am yet to upgrade my OS to Lion but I have experienced this thing on my leopard 10.6 quiet a few times. I called the customer care support guy he gave me a solution to make the macbook run smooth without gettign freezed ( i hope it also works for the iMac ). So, what he told me to do is to drag and drop the entire caches as well as the startupitems folder ( Macintosh HD> Library ) and also the caches folder from your computer account library. restart computer then empty trash box and again restart the computer and use it but honestly bro I dont know if this will help you in OS x Lion.
    Can you not restart the iMac after it is getting freezed ??

  • Mountain lion "messages" freezing computer

    downloaded mountain lion the other day. and just recently started using messages. and when i recieve a message and go to click on the messages icon on my dock sometimes it will freeze my computer. it happens 1-2 times a day. it never did this before i started using messages. anyone have any ideas?

    If you get a message there's not enough disk space, then you need to free up some space on your hard drive by moving some data off of it. Get an external drive and start moving or deleting data until you get to at least 8 GB free space.
    If you're unsure what is taking up the space use Apple menu > about this mac > storage tab.
    What does it report your free disk space as now?

  • Macbook pro freezes when moved / wifi problem

    Hi guys,
    This is driving me nuts. I've read some other post on the internet with the same problem but still no clue how to fix this.
    Okay so this is what happens. Eather my wifi works but my macbook freezes when I move it. Or the wifi doesnt work (no hardware detected) and the laptop doesnt freeze.
    Ive been to the genius bar here in Amsterdam, replaced the wifi but his didnt help, still freezing with wifi, or no wifi at all.
    Other actions taken:
    PRAM reset
    SMC reset
    replaced ram, to test
    Reinstalled the whole laptop.
    Does anybody have a clue what to do?
    Thanks,
    Timon

    I have tried all suggestions I found on Internet
    Then take your MPB to your local AS or an AASP.  Diagnostic testing is FREE! 
    Contact the router manufacturer.  
    If you are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare, call them.  Let them deal w/it. 

  • LabVIEW 8.0 computer slow down problem

    When using LabVIEW 8.0/8.2 Full Development suite I have been experiencing times when the cpu usage of LabVIEW goes to 99% and stays there causing it to lock up and have to terminate the process. I have experienced this several times while working on a large program that I have been developing. I thought it was due to low memory but have upgraded to 1Gig of memory and still have to same issue. This will ussually happen when I make a change to the program or save the changes I have just made.

    Dear Bjarne:
       Are you able to see this issue with other larger VIs or, do all
    the VIs slows down.  Lets shift gears a
    bit and see if now all VIs in the environment
    are slow than usual. Just restart the LabVIEW environment, make sure no other
    applications are open and that the CPU usage in the task manager does not show
    its resources being used by another application.  Then open up a brand new
    VI or some of our shipping examples. If you see the problem while editing VIs and then try to save, it would be specific to the
    environment you have installed. If it’s specific to the VI, I would take it to
    a different system with LabVIEW 8.2 and see if that happens? Can you try
    running the same VI on another LabVIEW development computer system?
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/862567530005F09C862565D40010CA3D?OpenDocument
    http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=128375&requireLogin=False
    LabVIEW will take little time (milliseconds to 1 or 2 seconds) depending on the
    size of the VI to save if it’s a large project. Is this the behavior you are
    concerned about? Can you try may be mass compiling VIs
    in your environment?  Please post some snapshots of task manager and the
    VI size and the block diagram to help us speed the troubleshooting process.
    Thanks much

  • Mov files and quicktime keep freezing computer

    Hi all, im new to this. My new digital camera outputs mov movies. When i play mov movies in quicktime, it plays for about 5 seconds then the computer completely freezes. This also happens when i try and play them in other players such as VLC and windows media player. I tried to reinstall quicktime but on installation it freezes the computer towards the end of installation when it does file extension types. Now i have a partially installed quicktime, and still cannot play these movies!! Really look forward to, and appreciate any help, as this has been annoying me for ages now. Many thanks, Andrew

    It should also be noted that even opening quicktime without playing a movie freezes the computer also!
    Cheers

  • Automatic Updater will not shut off-keeps freezing computer up

    I am on hughesnet, and have a 300 meg daily limit.
    Twice now, I have had the automatic updater download updates at the wrong time, and both time it has taken me over my limit, and shutmy speed down to 14.4 kps as a result.
    I am going to the updater section in system preferences, and turning the automatic downloading of critical files off, but the system resets itself when the computer is shut off, then turned on again.
    Is there a workaround for this?
    Thanks.

    That should not be happening.
    Are you running the system as an administrator?
    My box is unchecked and it stays that way.
    It might be a corrupted .plist - - there are two of them
    One in the main library and one in your local user library in the preferences folder
    The name of the files is
    com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
    You can drag it onto your desktop and then reboot to create a new .plist.
    See if that helps.
