Macbook is so slow it's sometimes nearly unusable

I'm having to use my 13" macbook as my main computer as my Imac is being repaired, but am having difficulty. I'm not sure if it's always been like this or I didn't notice so much, but just about everything takes ages to do. At certain times there are delays of a few seconds, or possibly many seconds, after almost every mouse click for even simple functions, with the the spinning disc etc. appearing. Text will not enter easily, and switching between,launching apps, takes ages to do, particularly with Word/Excel and Firefox. Menus "freeze" frequently, and the scrolling bar in Firefox gets stuck. Another, maybe different problem is that the desktop/finder cannot be accessed and I often have to relaunch finder to solve this.
The macbook seems to simply not be able to cope with what it is asked to do, but I am doing nothing demanding, with just a few programmes running (e.g. Word, Firefox and stuff like Preview, Mail etc) and the machine has 1GB Ram, running 10.5.8. I'm pretty mac-competent, and have done all the usual things to improve the situation, such as repairing permissions and running Cocktail, to little effect.
The situation was even worse, I think, when I was had Time Machine back-up to Time Capsule turned on, and has improved a bit since disabling that, but on the other hand I ought to be able to work with back-up turned on!
Can anyone suggest any fixes?

Hi funkster,
19GB out of which harddisk size ?
OSX tends to get slower when the free diskspace is lower than 10-15% of the whole harddisk space or is lower then 10-15GB.
And please post the numbers shown as Page-in/Page-Out in Activity Monitor.
Especially the Page-Outs are the interesting number, since they show how often OSX has to save RAM contents to the harddisk due to limitations of the RAM memory.
From the numbers you already posted an upgrade of your RAM to 2GB should improve the Performance.

    Hey VladimirGP,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing performance issues with your MacBook Pro. The following resource may provide a solution:

  • Macbook pro runs slow, sometimes it is more than a minute to load a webpage and sometimes freezes.

    My MacBook Pro is running very slowly, sometimes more than a minute to open a webpage or access a link on the page.  Using Safari and sometimes it freezes and the force quit window doesn't appear using option-command-escape.  Then only holding down the power button shuts down the computer.  Thanks for any help.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • MACBook Pro - Extremely Slow with Freezes

    Hi,
    I have this macbook pro model
      Model Name:          MacBook Pro
      Model Identifier:          MacBookPro9,2
      Processor Name:          Intel Core i5
      Processor Speed:          2.5 GHz
      Number of Processors:          1
      Total Number of Cores:          2
      L2 Cache (per Core):          256 KB
      L3 Cache:          3 MB
      Memory:          4 GB
    And with 385 GB out of 499 GB of free memory.
    I have practically nothing on it, no huge files & not more than the basic apps., nothing !
    However, I have a very slow response. Word sometimes takes a minute to open when I only have just Chrome running in the background.
    It gets worse when many apps are running together, but even then its only basic apps nothing major. Safari would normaly take not less than 20 seconds to open. I have just dropbox thaat run automatically after start up but nothign else. Still most of the time I am faced with the slow response. The spinning beack ball is always on to, which makes me force quit alot of time.
    My battery is working quite well
    Thanks for the feedback !

    If you choose to use garbage such as "Intego VirusBarrier" you are going to need more memory, a lot more. I suggest you uninstall it according to its instructions, and evaluate your Mac's performance without burdening it with completely useless junk. As long as Intego remains active, your Mac will have few resources remaining to do anything else.
    Using Intego's "Virus Barrier" and "Net Barrier" products on a brand new Mac containing nothing but one minimally configured user account resulted in performance degradation so severe that it became nearly unusable. No knowledgeable Mac user would consider using it even remotely tolerable.
    Intego should only be uninstalled using the uninstaller included with it. Don't use anything else. A successful uninstallation will result in the following:
    After that, restart your Mac. Other Intego components will remain but they will be inert and will not affect your Mac's operation.

  • Hello, I have a macbook pro late 2011 15 inch with 4 gb ram. My macbook runs extremely slow when logging in after waking up from sleep, locking up and I am unable to use the keyboard. Is there a fix?

    My macbook runs extremely slow when logging in after waking up from sleep, locking up and I am unable to use the keyboard. Furthermore, when just using safari to watch streaming television, my computer gets really slow, and locks up, and the dock appears blank and I sit here frustrated. Anytime i wake up my computer, my keys don't respond and I've waited at most 3 minutes untill i can type in my password. Even sometimes when i type in my password and hit enter, it takes forever to open up my mac. I have barely used any storage in my macbook, since i only use it for college, and I have run clamscan wiht no viruses showing... Any ideas?

  • Macbook Pro Extremely Slow All Of A Sudden, Wiped Completely and Problem Persists

    My 2012 Macbook Pro has slowed down to nearly a crawl in just about everything I try to do, espescially with anything that utilizes the internet.  Activity Moniter initially revealed the issue to be the Kernal_Task proccess using too much memory as well as com.apple.finder. Also, Spotlight was indexing constantly until I disabled my disk from being accesed by it within the privacy tab of Spotlight Preference. The spinning beach ball of death has appeared more times in the past few days then I have ever seen in the entire year I've had my Macbook Pro.
    I literally tried everything that I could find. I've done everything from resetting the Pram and the other thing (I forgot the name but when you hold down four keys at once during start up). I've tried killing proccesses, rebooting my mac several times, closing out programs, deleting all applications, just about eveything you can think of. Safari, Google Chrome, and Firefox were all extremely slow. Attemping to verify disk permissions or repair failed because of the sheer amount of time it was taking. I let the computer sit for an entire day and it seemed to make little to no progress in repairing the disk. I even booted the computer in Safe Mode and it was stil performing poorly.
    The issue is NOT Hard Drive space on my Macbook. I know this because it was working perfectly fine and then all of sudden started behaving like this. All of these issues ultimately led to me doing something many others wouldn't, WIPING MY ENTIRE MAC AND RESTORING FROM FACTORY SETTINGS.
    The issue STILL persists although not as severe. Internet browing is bearable but nowhere near perfomring as it should. Even simple task such as opening up a new tab or switching tabs results in a spinning beach ball for about 5-10 seconds. Opening an application such as Pages or Twitter results in a spinning beach ball for 5-10 seconds before working slowly. Simply right clicking results in spinning beach ball.
    I have no idea what the issue could be at this point. I am now about to attempt to verify the disk again to see if it fixes any issues but a year old Apple product should NOT be behaving like this.
    Any advice is appreciated!
    My Specs:
      Model Name:          MacBook Pro

    Melophage,
    I've been scouring the community for help, and hoping you might be able and willing to look at my etrecheck results and share any wisdom and feedback, problem causers you see! I updated to OS Mavericks through apple updates without really realizing I was installinga  whole new system. I have been experiencing the lag issues that many others have, and have a Kernel_Task for which the CPU skyrockets at random and consistently slows things down. I've run disk repair in recovery mode, repaired permission, PRAM, a few 'basics', but have not really had success in addressing the issue (I guess because I don't really understand the issue!)
    Thanks in advance for any time and suggestions!!

  • MacBook Pro - Very slow, Full RAM, Fan is constantly on - With EtreCheck, etc.

    Hello everyone! Thank you all in advance for any type of help or advice, I appreciate it a lot.
    I am using:
    MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2012)
    Running OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.2
    Processor 2,3 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 512 MB
    Macintosh HD has 294,08 GB free (out of 499,25 GB)
    I am a student, using my MacBook constantly during the day. Applications that I use daily - Safari, Word, Outlook and Finder are always on; a lot of the time I am also using Photoshop CS6, Skype.
    Ever since the update to OS X Yosemite my MacBook did slow down noticeably. I left this issue unattended as I was using uni computer at the time. Recently I returned to the actual studies and design work on my MacBook. I couldn't cope with how slow it was, ended up in forums looking for the solution. I tried a couple of things already (was restarting/shutting down computer in-between these tasks):
    1. Disabled FileVault (it was on for moths, I had no idea of what it is), completed the decryption process (it took around 10 hours).
    2. After that I ran EtreCheck, that found a couple of actual and potential issues, I more or less sort it out, will attach the new report in the end of the post.
    3. Tried to disable Spotlight to affect mds, not sure it worked.
    4. Moved to Trash apps I wasn't using, properly uninstalled only a couple of them. Emptied trash.
    5. Erased Safari history that emptied about 500MB of RAM, but then it went back to almost 3.98GB full out of 4GB.
    At the moment I only have Safari on and kernel_task takes 570MB of memory, used RAM is 3,88GB out of 4GB.
    Fan is constantly on, MacBook is very slow. If I understand correctly RAM is the main issue, unfortunately being a student I am not able to buy and install more memory. I also understand that Photoshop takes a lot of RAM memory, what can I do about it? Photoshop is a crucial app for me.
    Is there a way to free some of the RAM memory and make my Macbook faster? Would a clean Yosemite install help? (Can Yosemite at all perform properly on a MacBook with only 4GB memory? What will help it run faster?)
    Here's my EtreCheck report:

    Thanks a lot in advance! Looking forward for the possible solutions!

    Let Spotlight finish indexing your HDD.  Stopping it is pointless.
    Regarding the fans, it is always running when you turn on the MBP.  It is a question of how fast. If there are light loads on the CPU, the fans should be near silent.  If otherwise, try a SMC reset.
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295
    If that does not slow the speed at very light loads then there are other reasons that need to be explored.
    If you cannot instal;l additional RAM (your MBP will accept up to 16GB) then you will have to accept slower performance.  Yosemite is a RAM glutton.  The best sources of Mac compatible RAM are Owc and Crucial.
    Time Machine or any other backup is only necessary if the data you have on your MBP is important.  Ask yourself this question:  What will be the degree of inconvenience should the internal HDD fail?  All hard drives eventually fail.
    Ciao.

    DiskWarrior is a program that tries to repair low level directories that can get messed up. From their website ...
    What is DiskWarrior?
    DiskWarrior is the safest, most technologically advanced, most powerful utility to eliminate directory damage available for any computer.
    There are other utilities that do similar things.
    Looking for login items is probably a better bet. You do this by opening System Preferences and then looking into Accounts. From there you should see a tab for Login Items. There will be some things you want to keep. iTunes helper and some other helper files are actually nice to have around, but you may have things that look like total sludge. Get rid of those. If you aren't sure, try to google the name of the program and you will likely get some more info about it before destroying it.

  • My MacBook is very slow and constantly has the spinning beach ball of death!!!

    In the last couple if weeks my MacBook has suddenly slowed down a LOT. Sometimes it takes ages for it to boot up when I turn it on and at other times not as long. Then once I log in, as soon as I click on something, the spinning beach ball appears and won't go away so I have to force it to restart.
    It runs a little bit faster in safe mode and if I log in as a guest user, but it's still relatively slow.
    So far I have tried the following:
    - starting in safe mode
    - resetting PRAM
    - turning off then pressing ctrl, option, left shift and the power button for 10 seconds then turn it back on
    - repairing disk permissions
    I've been told that it might be best to reformat my mac, but in order to do this I need to back up. I bought a Seagate Back Up Plus 1TB and tried to use time machine. After a while a message popped up saying "Time Machine Error. Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while creating the backup folder.". There is something on my hard drive, but I cant tell if my mac has fully backed up or not.
    Any suggestions?

    If you choose to use garbage such as "Intego VirusBarrier" you are going to need more memory, a lot more. I suggest you uninstall it according to its instructions, and evaluate your Mac's performance without burdening it with completely useless junk. As long as Intego remains active, your Mac will have few resources remaining to do anything else.
    Using Intego's "Virus Barrier" and "Net Barrier" products on a brand new Mac containing nothing but one minimally configured user account resulted in performance degradation so severe that it became nearly unusable. No knowledgeable Mac user would consider using it even remotely tolerable.
    Intego should only be uninstalled using the uninstaller included with it. Don't use anything else. A successful uninstallation will result in the following:
    After that, restart your Mac. Other Intego components will remain but they will be inert and will not affect your Mac's operation.

I am not sure what to do. Oh, and my security software is clean and up to date!

  • Macbook running incredibly slow - Etre Info - Please Help!

    My Macbook has been running slow for quite sometime, and regardless of my internet provider, it is deathly slow to load.  I have seen individuals post the Etre info, so I thought I would do the same.  Not sure if this will help, but here's hoping!  I understand this computer is quite old, just trying to get it back into fighting shape post college.  Whether it is a hardware upgrade (if possible) or some software tweaks I'm fine with that. Thank you for the help in advance!
    Anyone have any ideas?

  • MacBook Pro Incredibly Slow, Shuts Down On Its Own, Dud?

    I'm wondering if anyone else has this problem and if it's worth making the hike to my nearest Apple Genuis Bar.  I am a loyal Apple user, but man, I am having a myriad problems with this MacBook Pro 15" that I'm darn near ready to throw it out the window.  I'm wondering if it's possible I got a 'dud' computer.  I've had this computer for less than a year, and I've already had to re-install the operating system three times.  I don't run any funny programs on it, nor do I download bizarre things from the internet. I am also totally powering down the computer at the end of each day.  Randomly, the computer will simply shut down. Just shut to black, with no explanation whatsoever--and it's in a perfectly aired out place, so it's doubtful it's overheating. Or, for example, if I move the screen toward me.  It will shut the entire computer down.  I've had covers on the outside and on the keyboard since I've gotten it, so it's still pristine. It runs so very slow that it's maddening (what's that joke, 'You want to know how someone really is? Put them in a room with a slow internet connection?) and I get the 'spinning beach ball of death at least 40-50 times PER DAY. I mean, 40-50 times per DAY.  That's kind of insane.  Thankfully, I have Time Machine, but if I'm not backing up every single day, I'll risk losing information since the computer will shut down at will. 
    I work solely on this computer as an editor of a magazine, so it's incredibly frustrating when my work is suffering.  I'm about 50 minutes from the nearest Apple store, so I'm happy to go in there, but was wondering if anyone knew of any programs I might run to see if there's some sort of glitch.  I've already called AppleCare and they've had me reinstall my Operating System---the last time this happened was about a month ago, and again I'm plagued with the same problems... I mean, is it possible I just got a dud of a computer?
    Any help I could run or programs you might suggest would be welcome.  I do not want to have to reinstall my operating system for the fourth time in less than a year.  Because that's plain ridiculous.
    Thanks!

    for example, if I move the screen toward me.  It will shut the entire computer down. 
    You have a hardware problem you can replicate on demand. Make an appointment at the genius bar, NOW. Reproducible problems they can fix.

  • My macbook is much slower than usual

    About 2 weeks ago I noticed the MacBook was running slower.  Slower starting up, and slower to start applications.  The beachball comes up more often & it will temporarily hang up mid-word, while typing an email or a web address sometimes.
    2 GB RAM, Still more than 60% harddrive space open, The problem exists even when only one application is open, MacBook is 1 1/2 years old.
    So...I'm wondering, could I have applications open in the background upon start-up without knowing it?
    Was there a recent update that could have caused this?
    And most importantly, is there a cure?
    Thanks in advance!!

    Andrew,
    I did as you suggested, and I don't see any program that is using double digit percentages of the processor.  The history shows almost nothing and then huge spikes when it does anything (like go to the previous webpage, or scroll down in the document).
    When I ask the computer to do pretty much anything (like update a saved a file that has one more word typed in), the spinning beach ball pops up for a minute or two.  Then other times, it will act fine for 30 minutes and then very sluggish again.
    Start-up times are anywhere from 7 minutes to 30 minutes.  It used to be 1-2 minutes.  Start up hangs up most on the apple with the little circle below.
    I tried rebooting the PRAM (command, option, P, R).
    Thanks for any help you can offer,
    Jennifer

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    The test works on OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later. I don't recommend running it on older versions of OS X. It will do no harm, but it won't do much good either.
    Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message. See, for example, this discussion.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    5. Try to test under conditions that reproduce the problem, as far as possible. For example, if the computer is sometimes, but not always, slow, run the test during a slowdown.
    You may have started up in "safe" mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal 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.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, a series of lines will appear in the Terminal window like this:
    [Process started]
            Part 1 of 8 done at … sec
            Part 8 of 8 done at … sec
            The test results are on the Clipboard.
            Please close this window.
    [Process completed]
    The intervals between parts won't be exactly equal, but they give a rough indication of progress. The total number of parts may be different from what's shown here.
    Wait for the final message "Process completed" to appear. If you don't see it within about ten minutes, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, press the key combination control-C or command-period to stop it and go to the next step. You'll have incomplete results, but still something.
    12. When the test is complete, or if you stopped it because it was taking too long, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak for themselves, not for me. The test itself is harmless, but whatever else you're told to do may not be. For others who choose to run it, I don't recommend that you post the test results on this website unless I asked you to.
