Mac being SUPER slow since 10.8.1

I've purchased Mac OS 10.8 lately and has updated to 10.8.1 since. Well, since the update, my Mac runs SUPER SLOW and the beachball of death appears all the time.
Opening a folder may takes up to 30 secondes. Evrytime I try a new action, the beachball appears. Starting apps is really slow to.
I've tried to zap the PRAM but it's still slow. Thunderbird, Chrome and safari often crash too.
I have a MacBook Pro, 2.2 GHz intel Core i7.
What's wrong? Everything was perfect under 10.8 though.

I would suggest you reboot while simultaneously holding down the Command - R keys to boot into the Mountain Lion Recovery Partition. When there, enter Disk Utility and run "Repair Disk" on the Mac Hard drive, and then run "Repair Permissions" twice. Then reboot into Mountain Lion's partition. That may help.
Hope this helps

Hello,
Have you done a PRAM reset, CMD+Option+p+r...

In fact, do 3 in a row, takes a bit of time.
Does it boot to Single User Mode, CMD+s keys at bootup, if so try...
/sbin/fsck -fy
Repeat until it shows no errors fixed.
(Space between fsck AND -fy important).

TS3571 Why is my MacBook Air version 1.1 suddenly going super slow from start up?

Ip think my MacBook Air is dying. It is so slow from start up (try almost 15 mins to get to home screen) that it almost isn't functioning at all. Is it just too old, a software problem, or a glitch in some part that can be repaired. I'm running the latest Lion 10.7 and it has never let me down before. The only other thing is that the sound has stopped, no input or output showing when I check in preferences.
Please don't tell me it's just got to be scrapped....

It's likely that your boot drive is failing, or that you have some other hardware fault. Back up all data immediately, then run the Apple Hardware Test.

Mac running super slow ... what happened?

Got a 21.5 inch iMac desktop summer of 2010. I think it is the base model. All other info I can't get to on "about my mac" because my Mac is running like frozen molasses.
Anyway, last few days I thought the internet/Safari was running kind of slow. Pages would load, I'd get stuff done, but I just thought it was being glitchy. Then last night, my Mac would all out freeze. Rebooting took at least 5 minutes, and it doesn't matter what I try to use (chrome, firefox, safari), pages just won't load at all or freeze if I am able to make it to Google/Facebook/etc. Now the computer just sits at the blue screen part of the startup, and I had to just finally hard shutdown since I am not getting anywhere to even run a virus scan.
So, what happened? Anyone know how much this is going to cost me to take to the apple store to fix it? (past a year and I don't have apple care on this machine)

Start with a PRAM Reset:
PRAM RESET
Zap the PRAM
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

My Mac is very slow to start up, or not starting at all

For the last month my computer has become very slow. The rainbow circle kept coming on everytime I send an instruction. Now it is extremely slow to star up and this morning is not even starting. I have had it on for more than 10min y still nothing happens. Any help will be welcome. I am a new user of Mac and not very familiar with the operating system.

Mac running very slow during and after downloads (even if they are just small docs)

Hi,
I'm getting very frustrated with my MacBook. Whenever I download something, no matter how small the file is, the MacBook really slows down to the point that it is impossible to work on.
Any ideas why or what I can do to fix it would be much appreciated please.
Thank you!

Thanks very much for getting back to me, really kind of you. I'd never done a system check before - here are the results:

Help! Mac is super slow after installing mountain lion

Ever since I installed Mountain lion on my new imac everything seems to be working really slowly. iphoto takes about 5 minutes to start and once it has started up it is really slow. Same thing happens with itunes. I have repaired disk permisions many times and also have run my Mac Keeper program as well.None of these things seem to help and it seems to be getting worse. Has anybody else have this trouble? Any ideas would really be appreciated. Thanks

MacKeeper is your problem. Uninstall it as per instructions here

Finder won't open at all, saying error 10810. Mac being really slow.

I started up and Finder didn't open, everything was really slow, and I can't get to the terminal.

What did you do right before this happened? Change anything?
Try disconnecting all peripherals except for the mouse and keyboard. Then try a SAFE BOOT, as described here:

Early 2008 Mac Pro shut downs during start up and restarts to full power fans, Help!

I have searched through all the forums all day and can't find anyone with the exact same problem.
It doesn't matter if I'm booting up to Windows 7 (boot camp) or OS X.The computer will start booting... and anywhere between the "apple tone" and the login screen it will shut off all the displays, shut down the HDDs, shut down the GPU fan and spool up the main fans to 100%.
I have reset the SMC and PRAM. All the diagnostic LEDs are displaying correctly (no overheating, GPU lights on). No RAM LEDs are lit up. The white LED on the front remains lit constantly. It won't stay running long enough for me to run the diagnostic disk.
I first thought it was a GPU (Nvidia 8800) issue, but after removing it and booting up with no video card... the outcome was the same. I'm leaning towards a PSU failure, but I haven't found anything to back up my theory. I'm hoping it's not a logic board failure... I would think there would be LEDs lighting up or something more definitive.
Can anyone help?!?!

There are multiple threads and reports of issues with Icy Dock - there is one on Amazon that lines up properly.
The drive sled length of 2009-2012 Mac Pro are longer. Maybe OWC needs to be clearer.
You'e right half-way and maybe some corrupt plist or interferring process you have, or even another hardware item or cable - external - even printer drivers or something that refuses or does not like sleep. Controller card?
All around I'd have to vote for Samsung 830 model. Then Intel 520. Crucial is out with x4 now (Or is it "V"?)
SSD firmware continues to be trouble. Even May-June the SandForce firmware had major issue and reason to hold off any using theirs. Reason to see if yours needed to be updated. Someone last week with m4 found they had old firmware and needed to update it.

Why is my Mac is super slow with removable hard drive plugged in?

I have all our photos on our 1tb HD and every time I plug it in I get the spinning pinwheel for any task. Help!!

Could be the OS X is trying to keep an updated index of files and folders, of that hard drive. You may have to look into the settings to stop external drives from being indexed by 'spotlight' search. There may be other reasons why the lag occurs, in that the drive is relatively huge and it is a hard disk drive, not a flash or SSD where the information is stored, retrieved differently, and at much faster speeds than a HDD.
You could read up on how to stop the external drive from being indexed, or how to have it ignored by the computer's operating system. An example follows, but not necessarily an exact method: http://osxdaily.com/2011/12/30/exclude-drives-or-folders-from-spotlight-index-ma c-os-x/ Or maybe it just isn't indexing correctly and needs some other action, see this example: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23831185#23831185 where ivan says: "read in another discussion the solution, go to Spotlight preferences and into Privacy add your hardrive to the list where you don't want Spotlight search, then remove it, and Spotlight would begin the correct index and stated a time."
What is the spin rate of the external drive in question? Is that a 7500RPM drive? The buffer or cache size may not be as important for a non-boot hard drive when compared to the purposefulness that could perform for an OS X in pre-loading files for a specific purpose, such as to run an application or perform one task.
What kind of enclosure do you have the drive in? Sometimes the drive may be a little slower because of how it is accessed, and if the computer and enclosure both support a higher-speed connectivity, that's best.
The spinning wheel usually represents CPU activity, but that could also mean pending action while the files get found and transferred, since the internal HDD where the system lives also has to spin-up for the OS X to function, move temp files, & virtual memory space on the System's HDD is read and written too, all the while.
So you could look into Activity Monitor to see if some of that spinning wheel is due to the computer and what exactly, relative to files, activity, CPU, RAM, virtual memory, etc is going on. Or some of it, anyway.
Good luck & happy computing!

Your MBP shows an uptime of 14 days: how does it behave after a reboot?
Virtual Memory information indicates that you're running a little low on RAM.

I experienced the same prob with Yosemite where my screen went black on startup. I was able to "fix" it and log into my qccount but my mac is running super slow now even just at simple clicks and commands. How can I fix this? Help please!

I updated to Yosemite and everything worked great for a few days until earlier. My mac was plugged to my TV via HDMI wen everything hanged. I did a hard reset and the screen was just black during startup. There were the startup sounds but no images from the screen. it did have images at one point where it gave me options to reset my password. I did a couple of hard reboots and pressed Alt/Option or Cmd+Option+P+R based on previous posts. Didnt know which w but I was able to access my account and log in. My big problem right now is that my Mac became super slow. Even at the simple commands/clicks

My mac was okay up until a few hours ago. If anyone knows how to fix this, would really appreciate your help. Thank you!
