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

mac pro runs slow since i installed mountain lion

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.
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.
Otherwise, take the steps below when you notice the slowdown.
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.

My mac has become slow since installing mavericks iOS

Since installing the Mavericks OS my Mac has become slow and unresponsive, it freezes up all of the time and I always have to wait for the different software to load once I have clicked on the icon.
Before I installed Mavericks when I clicked on a program it opened straight away and I could use it immediatly, is any one else having this problem?
Thank you

You have page-outs (see the last line of the report), which means that tasks are being paged out to your virtual memory (i.e., your hard drive), because your RAM is full. The page outs might go down if you fix some of the possible problems below, and your performance might improve; if it doesn't, you might consider putting more RAM in your Mac.

Suggestions:
First, make sure you have a good backup.
What to do about the items in green:
The items in green are third party software that may be a problem. They run all the time in the background, and thus may be making things slow. You can test this theory: try a safe boot (restart, hold down shift until you see the Apple logo). A safe boot does some diagnostic checking and then starts up without third party added-on software. If this eliminates the symptoms, then you know the problem is with a third-party item. Mac OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
I don't know if the green ones are a problem or not, but they are on the list of suspects, and you're going to need to do some research yourself.
The general philosophy is:
Figure out what the application is that is responsible for a particular green item.
If you can live without the application, it, uninstall it. You should uninstall the entire application that is responsible, not just the green bit. The best way is with an uninstaller from the developer of the application. If there's no uninstaller (one of the hallmarks of crapware), then an internet search may help (as in, "uninstall crapapp mac", where crapapp is the name of the software in question). After uninstalling the app, restart, see how your symptoms are, and run Etrecheck again. I am a fan of AppZapper for uninstalling apps, if there is no uninstaller from the developer. AppZapper - The uninstaller Apple forgot.
Sometimes, after you have run an uninstaller or manually uninstalled a suspect application, one of those green bits will still be on the Etrecheck report. If your Mac's symptoms have resolved, it's better to leave well enough alone and leave it there. If you must, you can try a modified Finder search to find the stubborn green bit and remove it. These system files do not show up in a default Finder or Spotlight Search.
If you can't live without this app, then at least make sure it is up to date and compatible with Mavericks.
What to do about the items in red
These are definite problems and should be fixed if they are Apple software. They should be fixed or uninstalled if they are third party developer software.
For red Apple items, I would try:
repairing your hd. Boot into your recovery partition (restart, hold down ⌘R until you see the Apple logo), and use Disk Utility to repair your hard drive. Repair permissions too while you're there. OS X: About OS X Recovery Then restart, reassess performance, and rerun Etrecheck.
If that doesn't work, I'd try Techtool, which can occasionally fix something that disk utility can't. Techtool Pro 7 Then restart, reassess performance, and rerun Etrecheck.
If that doesn't work, I'd reinstall Mavericks over your current installation. Restart, reassess, and Etrecheck.
If that doesn't work, you're looking at the nuclear option: backup your documents, erase your HD, and do a clean reinstall of Mavericks.
For red non-Apple software, I'd uninstall it and then recheck with Etrecheck. Then if you must reinstall it, make sure it's up to date and compatible with Mavericks.

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.

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!

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

Mac is much slower since the upgrade to 10.8.3 freezes and opens up slow accompanied by the beach ball

Since leaving snow leopard and Mountain lion to Lion , it has been much much slower and freezes while doing simple internet browsing. a few of my apps won't work since the upgrade. Even when i boot up it takes a long while to log in.

Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

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:

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!

Mac running slow since installing Yosemite..help.

Problem description:
All facets of my iMac are running extremely slow since downloading Yosemite. Internet is slow opening pages, word is slow opening, I get the spinwheel all the time now having to wait and wait for things to open or close etc.

Uninstall the Symantec Antivirus, it's useless and slows down the mac.
There's also a process called "defaults", which I can't seem to find the origin. If never seen a process named like that. Maybe someone else knows. It might be linked to the symantec though.
Also, either disable Time Machine, or set it up again, because it's not working.
More over, a system preference file is constantly crashing called "cfprefsd", which is linked to an app using a Cocoa Framework (I might be talking Chinese to you, but some may understand). I can't find any help regarding this particular crash, but reinstalling OS X should solve the issue (To reinstall OS X, follow the steps described on this support page: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH18872 )

2011 mac mini running crazy slow since last software update

Hi,
Just bought a brand new mac mini about two months age, and since updating to Lion and installing all the updates since, my computer is now running super slow, espacially with apps like launch pad and running safari in full screen. Any suggestions on how to fix this? or anyone know what's causing it? any help would be much appreciated!

when you run the activity monitor, what processes are consuming your RAM/CPU cycles? Looking at the page ins/outs in the Memory tab wll give you a hint as to whether it's a RAM issue.
