Mac mini works extremely slow

Hi
I have Mac mini that works extremely slow,
it starts to load the OS but turns really slow once the login is done, it takes about 30-40 min to load.
i did few tests like permissions verify and fix, then verify and repair disk which said that Macintosh HD is OK.
What should I do next? Its sounds like hardware issue - for my opinion its the HDD but I can't understand why when I use the Restore mode the computer works fast so maybe its OS issue related? Should I reinstall OSX?
what do you recommend for me as a Mac newbie user
thanks a lot

The boot drive is failing, or you have some other hardware fault.
Back up all data immediately, then make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.
If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to bare metal from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
*An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

  • Mac mini is extremely slow

    I dove in an bought my first mac. A 2012 mac mini  i5 with 4gb ram. To this point I've mainly been working on getting iPhoto set up with my pics. I made a copy of a certain point and lucky I did because something messed up. I fixed that, named the 8-9k faces and made some albums, etc. I wanted to make a copy of the library temporarily on the same external it resides on now, as a way to easily switch between in case something happens. It says it's going to take days to copy it to it's own directory.
         My trash also seems to take forever to empty. Also, moving around in iphoto is always laggy. Tabbing to name faces was a huge chore, because it would constantly miss the first letter I typed because it was lagging so much. My library consists of about 12-13k items, but from my understanding, that is small compared to some.
    I did check my pages outs which are nil, and I have plenty of ram not being used during all of this. HEEEELLP!  I really want to love the Mac experience, but as a long-time windows user I'm beyond dissapointed. I have a windows 7 machine with an i5 and 8gb ram and don't have near the lag and bad experience as I've so far had with this mac.
    Thanks in advance.
    Edit: I forgot to add, the external drive is a USB 3.0 Toshiba Canvio 500 GB Slim Portable External HD that is formatted NTFS.

    That's normal.
    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 mini is EXTREMELY slow and occurs random OS crashes

    Hi, I bought a Mac Mini in late 2011, Very recently I experienced it has become VERY slow! And the Operating System crashes. It says something like 'Your Mac Mini needs to restard' CPU usage is low, No useless background proggrams, Hardly and space taken up 4GB ram, Any ideas?

    Good work!
    BTW, we never know for sure what a respondent knows or doesn't know, please don't take it as an insult to you, most good helpers try to provide what may... OR MAY not help, to cut down on response time.

  • Mac mini running EXTREMELY slow

    I bought the Mac Mini server just 4 months ago and it is running incredibly slow.  I do not use it as a server, just bought this version for the extra disk space.
    The CPU load is very low, and less than 2 GB of 8GB total memory is used by the system.  But the Spotlight seacrh simply does not work (it shows the greay wheel going round and round).
    Your help is appreciated.

    Thanks.  Below is the info you requested.  I repalced my user-name in the log with "USERNAME".  I also deleted many exactly the same error messages for easy readability.
    I moved all the media and picture files out of the home directory.  I see that Spotlight is now indexing.  But in console I now see hundreds of messages like below:

  • Mac working extremely slow

    I have MacBook Pro from 2011 year with 8 GB RAM.
    I changed hard drive to new one, with 7200 rpm and 16 MB cache, and fully reinstalled system from ESD disk (not from any backups). And the system working extremely slow, like running Windows 2000 on 486 computer.
    It is difficult to write text, and actually impossible to make so easy things, like web surfing.
    Here is activity monitor picture: actually nothing is running, but CPU full.
    PS. Some times, I can see, that kernel_task consumes >300% of CPU.
    Looking for advises.
    Thank you.

    There are quite a few reasons a computer will start to feel slow but the two most common are: an overly full hard drive and not enough memory.
    If your computer seems nice and peppy when you first boot it up and then seems to slow down as it is used, memory is likely the culprit. Similarly, if you notice it slows down as you start up another program, the problem is too little memory (or too many programs in use). If this is the case adding more RAM is your answer.
    Because programs and the operating system use the hard drive for temporary storage I've always recommended that users keep a good chunk of their hard drive empty. Drive sizes vary tremendously making it harder to recommend a specific amount but if less than 5% - 10% of your drive empty you may not be leaving enough room for virtual memory and various important cache files which can cause a computer to slow down. Move some files to another drive and see if that helps (media files are good candidates for removal since they tend to be large).
    These aren't the only reasons a computer might be slow but they are the two I start with.

  • My mac mini work slow

    MY MAC MINI WORK SLOW

    Go to the Application folder then utilities folder.
    Open "Activity monitor"
    Check you have enough free ram
    Check if one process is taking a high % of processor ressources
    As BGreg wrote, check free disk space
    Your mac may be busy something like indexing your disk (mdworker process or similar)
    or some badly designed application may be "eating" your ram free space
    ... and please use small characters, caps are kept for "shouting"
    Thanks

  • Mac Mini boots very slow with Mavericks (after security update)

    Hi,
    my Mac Mini boots very slow after I've installed Maveriks. I did two clean installs by now, seemed to work OK after the second one but after the latest safety update (2014-002) the boot time is up to 5+ minutes. Starting Safari or other software takes addtional time. See below for system specs, Etrecheck and log. Any ideas what could cause this? According to the update history I did install the security update 2014-002 twice on the same day although I cannot remember doing such a thing.
    Thanks Joerg

  • Apple TV mirroring issues even with Mac mini,airport extreme bought at the end of last year,and an iPad 2

    Apple TV mirroring issues even with Mac mini,airport extreme bought at the end of last year,and an iPad 2

    I have the same issue with ATV3 and iPhone 4S. Everything works properly, no buffering issues when watching netflix, vimeo, youtube BUT when I try mirroring even a small 15sec iPhone movie it stutters and buffers and results to a choppy playback..same with larger mp4 files such as 1-1.5GB, buffers forever and never plays, I just re-encoded the same movie to 700MB and plays perfectly..
    Why Apple, why?..so close..I can accept the bigger movie files issue, but not being able to playback properly an iPhone movie is funny..I recorded a movie with lower bitrate through Filmic Pro (Economy mode, up to 16Mbps)
    and plays properly.
    Is there an upcoming software update going to solve the problem or is it hardware related and therefore not fixable.
    Please don't reply with a network related answer, by 2012 we know how to set up our networks and everything else runs flawlessly.
    I'll apreciate a fast answer, we love Apple, but if it can't play an iphone movie (or a high quality movie from iTunes) it's just not up to my standards.
    Thanks again.

  • Photoshop working extremely slow

    I just downloaded creative cloud yesterday. Now my photoshop cs6 and photoshop cc are both working extremely slow, and sometimes will just stop working. I have an iMac desktop. HELP!!!

    A lot more information about your hardware and software is needed.
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CC", but something like CC2014.v.2.2) and of Bridge,
    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
    etc.,
    someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).

  • HT201541 Our Mac-Mini has gotten slower and slower. Is there a utility that would help speed it up?

    Our 4 plus year old Mac-Mini has gotten slower and slower.  Is there a utility that would help speed it up or is there another?

    Hello! I’ve offered the steps below to similar posts in the past and they helped out getting to the solution (or at least find the cause). I suggest them to you too in this case. It will take you about 30 minutes or less to do these, depending on how bad the problem on your Mac is.
    The goal here is to boot your Mac to the so-called Recovery partition where you’ll have a chance to repair the disk and the disk permissions using the Disk Utility and Password Utility. This might solve your issue and even if it doesn’t- it’s still a decent maintenance step to perform. These steps won’t erase your data or reinstall your Mac in any way if you follow instructions carefully.
    Here’s how:
    1/ Make sure your computer is completely shut down.
    2/ You’ll have to be quick next: Press the Mac’s power button. As soon as you either hear the loud chime, or see the display light up - usually after a second or 2 - on your keyboard press [cmd] + [r] Keep these keys on your keyboard pressed until you either see an Apple Logo with a loading bar or a spinning gear.
    After a few minutes, you’ll be presented with a Utilities screen. This is the Recovery partition. If this step is already giving you problems, try using a USB-keyboard. It doesn’t have to be an Apple-keyboard. If you have a Windows-tailored keyboard laying around, use the “Windows-flag” key in stead of the [cmd]-key and it should also work.
    3/ Choose Disk Utility and click [continue]
    Disk Utility will display your computer’s harddrive in the left column. The default name for it is “Macintosh HD” and is usually the second one from the top. Click on it and click on the [verify disk] button. This will check your “Macintosh HD” harddrive partition for errors. If found, click [repair disk]  unless you have a Fusion drive in your Mac and it says [fix] instead of [repair disk] please tell us before you continue! For a screenshot of what I mean, check this article from Apple: http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202574
    4/ Once done with the verifying or repairing of your “Macintosh HD” click [repair disk permissions]
    This will check your partition for permissions errors. A common myth about this feature is that it will fix all permissions issues on your Mac, which is not true, but it will fix most systemwide issues. Also, here is a list of error messages that you can safely ignore if they pop up:
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203172
    5/ Lastly we shall do a permissions/Access Control List repair on specifically your user’s home folder with a somewhat hidden tool in the Recovery partition. Close Disk Utility and find the menu called “utilities” in the top left corner of your computer’s display. It’s in between the menus “edit” and “window” Don’t be confused with the menu called “os x utilities” 
    Choose Terminal. A somewhat old-fashioned looking window will pop up, waiting for a text command from you. This is the Terminal.
    After the # type: resetpassword and press return. Note that there is no space between ‘reset’ and ‘password’ 
    What you’ll see next is an rectangular window that gives you the option to reset passwords. We are not going to that, however. Instead, click on “Macintosh HD” at the top. In the pull-down menu below that, choose your user's accountname. Skip all the rest and at the very bottom click the [reset]-button.
    A spinning gear will appear and may stay on for a second or several minutes. It’s hard to predict exactly how long.
    If you have multiple users on your Mac, I advise you to repeat this step for all your users.
    We’re ready to reboot your Mac now. Click on the Apple Menu and choose “startup disk” Choose to boot from “Macintosh HD” Please let us know if this solved your issue, or if the steps above did not work, or could not be performed for some reason.
    If they worked I suggest you do these steps everytime your Mac becomes slow.

  • My brand new mac mini is super slow

    Dear Apple people of the world,
    I just bought a new entry-level Mac Mini to supplement by 2010 Apple Air. It's the basic model (2.5 GHZ Dual Core Intel core i5, 4gb memory, 500 gb hard drive, intel hd graphics 4000, os x mavericks). As soon as I got it I upgraded to os X 10.9.5 and migrated data from my Apple Air onto the Mac Mini, so that the hard drive is about half full with word and pdf documents. I also installed Chrome, Evernote, Dropbox and a few other apps.
    Problem: The Mac Mini is absurdly slow. Even if I have all apps and windows closed except for one or two, it takes forever to open new apps, sometimes iTunes takes a minute or two to launch, sometimes things freeze, and so on. I can't figure out why it's so slow. Loading emails, reading emails, composing emails, all takes place with significant lag. And if I have more than a few apps open, forget about it, I may as well make a coffee while I try to open a new program.
    Any idea why this might be the case? Anything I can do to fix it? The problem is complicated by the fact that I bought it last week in the USA and am now in Gwrmany, so I can't easily exchange or return or upgrade it.

  • My mac mini is incredibly slow, but I have plenty of memory available.  Why?

    Why?My mac mini is incredibly slow, but I have plenty of memory available. My machine has 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5 processor and 2GB 1333 MHz DDR3 for Memory.  Any idea what I can do?

    Launch the Console 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 and start typing the name.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take an action that isn't working the way you expect. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    Some private information, such as your name or email address, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • My mac is running extremely slow. More often than not when I try to click something or type something it gives me the "thinking" pointer icon.  I ran the etre check program and got this:

  • Mac Mini running so slow

    Not sure how to diagnose issues on my Mac, but I gathered I should run Etre and post results here.  I know I could add more RAM, but this is so slow that I have to believe something else is going on.  Can someone spot anything unusual in the following?
