MacBook Air running slow since OS X Upgrade, what gives?
Processor: 1.6 GHz intel Core 2 Duo; Memory: 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3; I have 58 GB remaining of the 120 I have.
My Mac was runnning perfectly until I decided I needed to "upgrade". Now, I get slow to load pages, the beach ball of death crops up more and more, scrolling on pages is like scrolling through mud, and many other nuisances I did noy have before OS X.
I tried repairing disks and permissions, all were fine. Oh, and I use Chrome, because Safari completely *****.
Help!
I have the same problem with my MacBook Pro.

why is my MacBook Air running slow and I bought the 11 inch with all memory and turbo boost
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.
Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. Any change?
Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
Log out and log back in. Any change?
Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
Again, if only Safari is involved, open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Safari, if it's checked. Any change?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference? -
My macbook air running slow even on recovery mode
My macbook air running slow even on recovery mode when I press Alt + Power it takes me to Mac os Utilities the mouse barely moves, I erased every thing on the hard drive so I can install a fresh copy of mac os but I couldn't because every time I try to boot up from the USB that got the mac os it takes for ever to load the OS for installtion, and some times every thing freeze when I'm on the Mac os Utilities mode. Any ideas of what's going on ?
Contact AppleCare or make an appt with your local Apple Store Genius. I don't think this is a problem we can help with.

2014 Macbook Air running slow?
My 2014 Macbook Air seems to be running a little slower since updating, I have a lot of memory available and I haven’t downloaded anything from the web. I’ve also done the resets and emptying cache in Chrome and all that, it started running faster after that. I don’t know if its just chrome or the whole system.

No opening of attachments from unknown sources. No opening of attachments that have extensions that Macs can execute (.exes are harmless unless Windows is on the Mac). If you must have anti-virus ClamAV or Sophos are better.
Ask the authors of Webroot how to completely remove their software so you aren't left with lingering effects. -
Problem description:
My Mac is running slow so wanted to get advice on what I should do based on my EtreCheck report. I run a virtual machine in VMWare for business purposes and I had been having no problems but here lately the mac has slowed down. Thanks in advance.

Try uninstalling it!

Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
Again, if only Safari is involved, open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Safari, if it's checked. Any change?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference? -
Macbook Pro Early 2008 running slow, hot even with upgrades - what to do?
Hello!
Specs:
I have a Macbook Pro Early 2008 (Model A1260). I have upgraded both the RAM (from 2GB to 4GB DDR2 667) and the HDD (from the factory installed 200GB 5400 to a 750GB 5400).
Previous to this, I was running Leopard, and upgraded to Snow Leopard then Lion as my specs match the requirements. On the old/original HDD and RAM, All was good for about 3 months, and in the past month or two, I began to have performance issues, so after trying everything (including a clean wipe & reinstall using Lion Recovery) and doing a lot of reading in these forums and others, I decided/hoped the problem would be remedied with some upgrades (hence the new HDD & RAM upgrades).
This has helped to the point where I can now run safari without having to force reload or having the whole computer freeze (although that has now happened once), but I wasn't even able to load a youtube video.
CPU Usage:
I checked the activity monitor and I'm getting a pretty constant CPU usage of about 50% (even with no other apps running):
(The above is with just Safari, Dropbox, smcFanControl & Activity monitor)
My fans are engaged constantly (smcFanControl has my computer at 75º-80ºC at any given time that it's on).
The CPU usage & temps seems high - but I am not sure haven't found very good answers online.
Things I've Tried (Post RAM & HDD Upgrades):
I tried to perform a hardware test (holding D before the gray screen) - and both times I tried it, it did not work, as in Lion just loaded as normal.
Ran repair permissions - and some things were repaired.
Tried to run Verify Disk - no dice - the computer froze and I had to use the power button to shut it off & restart
Reset the SMC per apple support instructions - had no effect on the fans or heat (though I'm still not sure if this is a real problem or not!)
What I'm looking for :
Any ideas on what could be going on - is this just par for the course on older models running lion, or is there something more to be done?
I am really hoping to squeeze a few more years of service out of this machine! Thanks for any advice you can give me!Incase you are using your MBP like a laptop (which it is NOT)...................
According to the user manual it states in part:
"Do not operate your MacBook Pro on a pillow or other soft material, as the material can block the airflow vents. Never place anything over the keyboard when operating your MacBook Pro. Never push objects into the ventilation openings."

Macbook Air running slow--receiving error message when trying to post Etrecheck report
My Macbbok air is running really slow over the past couple of weeks. I'm pretty new to the world of Macs so not sure what I can and cannot do to improve performance.
I am trying to include the report from Etrecheck in my post, but everytime I paste it and attempt to post I receive a message that says: You have included content in your post that is not permitted.
If anyone can tell me what I am including that is not allowed I will fix it and post the report so I can be helped.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.)

☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.

Macbook Air runs slow and very hot!
The lastest version of MBA (2010), suddenly the fan runs and hot, then every programs are working slowly. Everytime, click something, the rainbow circle mark shows up and spins.
I tried to cool the fan off using cooling fan (connected MBA), my brother has same one, he is doing same thing one week before.
I am living in Powell River, I called to centre, they recommended me that I should visit one of Apple center. But then I have to trip at least one day.
I read all stuffs in this commuities...but still I couldn't get answers.
Could you somebody who is expert about this, help me please.
I didn't download Lion of new version. I bought this last year in December...so it is really new one.
Typing is okay...but when I tried to open one of all programs...every time it takes so long, and sometimes freezing.
And the fan is running...heat.
Start up is okay, thought a little slower than three days ago.
Well...I can't explain well...but I am sure, you guys had same situation like me.
