Well you have been using more memory than the RAM you have. You need to stay within your 4GB of RAM.
You might have a issue with Chrome, so uninstall all it's addons, clear cahce and uninstall Chrome by dragging it to the Trash and downloading a new copy.
Check all your plug-ins for updates and disable any your not actively using.

  • Memory Upgrade to Mac Book Pro 13.3" late 2011

    I have Mac Book Pro 13.3" Late 2011 edition.i want to upgrade memory from 4 Gb to 16 Gb.would be possible as it says it does support only 8 Gb.

    Yes, you can upgrade to 16GB - all 2011-2012 non-Retina models can be upgraded to 16GB.
    Your Mac uses the same type of memory as mine - 204-pin PC-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMMs. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1270.
    Crucial, Corsair & OWC all manufacture RAM specifically 'made for Macs'. To start, I would visit the Crucial website and use their System Scanner to show the possible upgrade paths for your machine.
    Good luck - call back with any questions.

  • Mac book pro running slow and getting pop ups

    mac book pro running slow and getting pop ups

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.

  • Mac book pro running slow and word and excel from Mac not opening

    Mac book pro running slow and word and excel from Mac not opening

    Call it Monday morning humor.... ALL the MacBook Pro owners we see asking the same thing (more than once a day, too) are slower since 10.10.x so we can assume something. Heard the very same story with every new OS in the past decade from laptop owners, heard a lot especially with Snow Leopard back in Aug-Sept 2009.
    A new OS goes better if you do a clean install / checked Roaringapps.com for compatibility / wait for vendors to have updates
    About the only things that can be done in addition - if you have like many posting those symptoms have minimal 4GB RAM is to upgrade to 8GB+ and throw in a new 250GB+ SSD (the most recent MBP have to be bought with and cannot add RAM later).
    Even the MacBook Air 2014 though with 4GB RAM have PCIe-SSDs that helps, plus 4th gen Intel i5's and an IG of 5000 or later all help.
    Try including more details. Model year and configuration at least.

  • My Mac Book Pro has slowed to less than a crawl (possibly from a worm or virus).  How do I make sure it's running at peak efficiency before I complain to comcast

    My Mac Book Pro has slowed to less than a crawl (possibly from a worm or virus).  How do I make sure it's running at peak efficiency before I complain to comcast

    Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them; in that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
    Restart the router and the broadband device, if they're separate. Any change?
    Run Software Update and install all available updates for OS X or the computer's firmware. Any change?
    If possible, connect to the router with an Ethernet cable and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?
    Are any other devices on the network, and if so, are they the same?
    If you can connect to more than one network, are they all the same?
    Are all network applications affected, or only some? If only some, which ones?
    Is networking always the same, or is the problem intermittent?
    Disconnect all other devices from the network. Any change?
    If you're running a MacBook with the lid closed, open the lid. Any difference?
    Start up in safe mode and test. Any difference?
    Start up in Recovery mode. From the OS X Utilities screen, select Get Help Online. A clean copy of Safari will launch. No plugins, such as Flash, will be available. Any difference?
    If possible, turn off Bluetooth and disconnect any USB 3 devices. Any difference?

  • My 2013 13' mac book pro is slow

    My 2013 13' Mac Book pro is slow and it is play videos slow as well. What is wrong?

    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.
    If you're booting from an aftermarket SSD, see whether there's a firmware update for it.
    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.

  • My Mac Book Pro is slow and at times I have to reboot to connect to the net

    My Mac Book Pro is slow and at times I have to reboot to connect the net.  Also wondering how do I check if my software is up to date?  Thank you.

    To check to see if your software is up to date, go to >Software Update and you can check for updates.
    No idea why your Mac is slow--there could be a variety of things that could cause slowness. A good start would be to see if all your RAM is recognized. >About this Mac will show you how much RAM you have. You can also open Activity Monitor and check your RAM usage.
    Also, how full is your hard drive? You should have a minimum of 10% free space for the OS to operate properly, and 15% to 20% is better.
    No idea why you have to reboot to connect to the internet, but it could be related to the slowness. Rebooting will free up RAM among other things.
    Which MBP do you have and which version of the OS are you running?

  • My late 2008 mac book pro runs slow and freezes

    Hi, there! I have a late 2008 mac book pro and few months ago I upgraded the operating system from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion. Since then my mac book often freezes, it is much slower than it was with Snow Leopard and the most annoying thing of all, is the almost inevidable freezing of the toolbar (where language selection, date, clock and other useful tools are located)
    I was wondering if someone has experienced similar issues with his Mac Book Pro when upgraded to OSX Mountain Lion and if someone knows if and how this issue can be resolved?
    Thank you.

    I have the same problem. Up until 2 days ago my MacBook Pro was running fine, then suddenly things started going wrong. I am using mac os x 10.6.7 as well. Does this have something to do with any firmware updates.
    Any help/ suggestions welcome.

  • Why is my Mac Book Pro so slow?

    Hi my Mac Book Pro is running really slow. It takes ages to perform simple tasks such as opening apps and doing basic jobs. I have run a check on the computer using Etresoft and the results are pasted below. Can anyone see anything wrong or have any suggestions?  I have run Disk Utility and all fine. I have also cleared out loads of files on the hard drive and moved to a external one. Thanks.

  • Mac Book Pro runs slow

    I have a mid-2009 Mac Book Pro. Safari runs poorly. I put something in the search bar, it sits, pauses, disappears, then reappears, then searches fairly slowly. I ran EtreCheck on it, here's the report. Any suggestions are welcome.
    Problem description:

    Some of your user files (not system files) have incorrect permissions or are locked. This procedure will unlock those files and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
    Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
    sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
              Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
    resetp
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
               ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • Older Mac Book Pro is slow and bogging down

    My older Mac Book Pro is getting slow and having issues like a PC (programs freeze and closes, slow to respond, slow to open programs, wifi signal dropps out, etc)
    Is there a way to restore the performance, maybe by doing a wipe and a time machine restore?
    The hard drive is only 2/3 full and I don'e run a lot of high demand programs.

    I seem to have read somewhere that the Mac does auto-defragging during late night admin sessions (on certain dates only) if your computer is left switched on overnight. Perhaps someone more knowledgeable would have a little more about this....
    Ah, there you go. It's in the MacLife article mentioned by shoulder2thewheel: 3.15am nightly admin sessions. Just need to leave your Mac on.
    Not good if you have loads of bad sectors though, as you may find that system files will be written over the bad sectors... and hey presto, you have a fatal disk crash, just like on my computer two nights ago.
