MAC RUNNING SLOWLY, MAC RUNNING SLOWLY
Have always downloaded latest updates so why is my Mac Book Pro running slowly & it sounds like it's runnin all the time...
Running 10.6.8
Hope someone can help me

Have you looked to see how much free memory there is? If memory is low then the machine will spend lot's of time swapping memory to disk. Open the program "Activity Monitor" (in "Applications/Utilities/"):
Then click the "System Memory" segment at the bottom:

Mac is running very slowly.
Hi Apple Community,
My mac has been running very slowly, and there has been several other problems as well. I have a early 2009 iMac, running OS X 10.9.5. First of all, I have recently moved all of my photos and music to an external hard drive to clear up the internal hard drive, and Time Machine is also backing up to an external hard drive, and the internal hard drive is now about 60% free. I thought that would be able to get my Mac to run quicker, but it is still has slow as it was before. I have read recent community posts on what to do about this, one suggested downloading Etresoft to get a report on the condition of my mac. I ran Etresoft (I honestly don't know what to make of anything in the report), and the report is here:
Problem description:
Mac runs very slowly, applications will take longer than usual to open. Internal hard drive is about 60% full, and 3 external hard drives are used to hold photos, music, and backups.

So if someone could please explain what this means, or suggest some other ways to find out what is wrong with my Mac, it would be extremely helpful.
Thanks
MorganYou need to uninstall all Norton Antivirus softwarwe/ utilities.
https://support.norton.com/sp/en/us/home/current/solutions/kb20080427024142EN_En dUserProfile_en_us
Also, uninstall all Seagate hard drive software.
In addition, you need to install more RAM into your iMac.
Your year and model IMac can take a max. total of 8 GBs of RAM.
I strongly recommend that you purchase and install the maximum amount of RAM.
Correct, compatible and reliable Mac RAM can ONLY be purchased from online RAM sources Crucial memory or OWC (macsales.com). -

Hi All,
I am using a Mac Mini at work and it is running very slowly at the moment. General tasks are ok, but anythng video related (youtube is a nightmare to use) is super slow, and when closing it down it often takes several attepts as it seems to hang.
I am running MAC OS X 10.6.8 have 4GB of RAM
I have plenty of space on the HDD
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

My older mac book pro and iMac are both running 10.6.8 and both have started running safari and email VERY slowly. My new mac book pro running 10.9 is having no issues. Is anyone else experiencing these issues?
No noticeable speed differences running the four latest OSs on my machine.

Garage Band '11: pop-up error forces me to power off-on. Message states that info will be sent to Apple.
I never hear back from anyone about this.
Second prob: Fan sometimes comes on, runs high speed, then slowly runs down and stops running.First thing to do is a SMC Reset, you can find instructions at:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY!!!!
Then try Repairing Disk Permissions, do this at least 2x. You will find this in Disk Utility which is located in Applications - Utilities - Disk Utility.
Finally you may need to uninstall Garage Band and reinstall. You may have to use Pacifist to do this, you can find it at:

My mac is slow, the movies run slowly, the kernel_task consumes 463,3 MB of memory, how can I fix this?
The problem started a few weeks ago with a small decrease in speed, and the videos now crash while the sound remains normal. When I open the Finder or any file it seems that I'm opening the windows with the hourglass spinning. I've already cleaned temporary, removed everything that was saved on the table, I made up for the mountain lion. I have a Mac 27-inch, 3.06 GHz processor Intel Core 2 Duo, Memory 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, ATI Radeon HD 4670 256 MB, Software OS X 10.8. With space on the HD.

I've got a late 2006 mac mini which has begun to run extremely slowly. It has 2GB of RAM and is running OS X 10.6.6. I also have an external 500gb drive connected via USB (firewire 400 cable failed some time ago; haven't bothered to replace).
I've tried numerous things to address the issue and am now looking for suggestions. Here is what I have done so far:
- Verified both disks and repaired disk permissions using Disk Utility
- Used Applejack to clear all caches (including low level)
- Tested the RAM using Applejack (uses Memtest)
- The main drive has over 53GB of 80GB free
- When I look at the activity monitor, the CPU is never even close to pegged
- More than half the RAM is unused
Still when I run iTunes, songs will pause and resume mid-way through. The computer boots very slowly. Larger programs, like Firefox and iTunes load very slowly. There can be long waits in switching from one running program to another.
Any suggestions?

Additionally, can somebody tell me where I can download the Apple Hardware Test (AHT), or images of the install disks that came with the computer? I cannot find the original disks.Any recommendation on what to do with this Man Mini to make it after, besides changing the HHD to an SSD?

Feb 15, 2015, 06:03:15 AM Self test - passed1. Check the cycle count of the battery against the rated life for your model. The battery may be due for replacement. If the power adapter is connected almost all the time, the battery may need replacing even though the cycle count is not too high.
2. Follow these instructions, or these for OS X 10.8 or earlier.
3. In the Energy Saver preference pane, uncheck the box marked
Enable Power Nap while on battery power
if it's shown (it may not be.)
4. You can also try resetting the SMC.
5. Make sure your system is up to date in Software Update.
6. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center. -
Hello everyone. My Mac is running very slowly when I am using the internet, and especially when on Facebook. The little rainbow globe spins around for ages before changing pages etc. I have done several virus checks etc, but cannot find anything wrong. Sorry, but I am not tech savvy, so have difficulty with these issues.
Thanks for your reply. Well, I am not sure about the OS X version, I just gave that info from the Install DVD. I have the machine on automatic updates so I guess I am using a newer version. I know it is iMac Snow Leopard and I bought it in 2009. It is the 21.5 inch model. That is all I can tell you. I have 499GB and have used only 32GB, so it isn't a space problem.

Why is my mac mini running so slowly
My mac mini has been running great until yesterday when it started running very very slowly. Any program whether on the internet or on the mac mini i run takes 10 times as long to load , any keystroke i make is delayed in appearing on the screen.
I ran etrecheck which highlighted the system launch daemons. I am not sure what to do with this information or if this may even be the problem.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

Back up all data immediately, then make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance. -

My Mac Mini runs very slowly. I upgraded memory but it didn't help. Wi-Fi is very fast with other computers in sae location so I don't think that is the issue. Ideas?
Hi, is it just Wifi that is slow?
If so try this...
Make a New Location, Using network locations in Mac OS X ...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2712
10.5, 10.6, 10.7 & 10.8…
System Preferences>Network, top of window>Locations>Edit Locations, little plus icon, give it a name.
10.5.x/10.6.x/10.7.x/10.8.x instructions...
System Preferences>Network, click on the little gear at the bottom next to the + & - icons, (unlock lock first if locked), choose Set Service Order.
The interface that connects to the Internet should be dragged to the top of the list.
10.4 instructions...
Is that Interface dragged to the top of Network>Show:>Network Port Configurations.
If using Wifi/Airport...
Instead of joining your Network from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed.
For 10.5/10.6/10.7/10.8, System Preferences>Network, unlock the lock if need be, highlight the Interface you use to connect to Internet, click on the advanced button, click on the DNS tab, click on the little plus icon, then add these numbers...
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
(There may be better or faster DNS numbers in your area, but these should be a good test).
Click OK. -
