MacBook Mid 2012 - Slow even after upgrade

Hi All,
Previously I was having issues with my macbook pro - the system would not sleep when the lid was shut. It would over heat.
It was generally super super super slow. I can't emphasize this point enough!!!
I waited and managed to live with it for a while until the latest updates were released by apple. The sleep issue was resolved BUT the
slow sleep issues still remain.
I am quiet frustrated at this point. Every thing is laggy (ex. when I try to open a new tab in Safari, scroll down a preview file, or ANYTHING, it just freezes for 30-50 seconds).
I have looked at multiple previous posts, tried different proposed solutions, but nothing has helped.
If anyone has any suggestions - please do share!
Farid

Farid,
please list the proposed solutions which you have tried so far, so that we don’t propose them to you again.

  • Macbook Air Mid-2013 slows down after upgrading to Yosemite

    Dear support community,
    After upgrading my computer to Yosemite, it started performing much slower than usual. Some of the interactions are sluggish, sometimes switching tabs on Chrome will stop the music for a few miliseconds, etc.
    Here's my EtreCheck report in case you can spot the problem here. Thank you so much for your help!

  • Macbook air 2012 battery issues after upgrading to Yosemite

    Ever since upgrading to Yosemite about 2 months ago the battery on my MBA mid-2012 has been acting strangely. The battery drains considerably while sleeping with the lid closed. I don't use the laptop every day so it can often sleep for a few days. It's so bad that after 2-3 nights the battery is completely dead. I've reset the SMC, but so far it has not helped.
    Any ideas on the cause?
    Thanks,
    Brian

    Hi beekatt,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  The resource below will offer some suggestions if your battery is draining quickly.  Have you tried shutting the computer down to see if you get different results?
    OS X Yosemite: If your battery runs out of charge quickly
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH18599?viewlocale=en_US
    If your battery on your portable Mac runs out of charge more quickly than you expected, check your battery’s condition.
    Hold down the Option key and click the battery icon  in the menu bar of your Mac. 
    You will see one of the following conditions:
    Normal: The battery is functioning normally. 
    Replace Soon: The battery is functioning normally but holds less charge than it did when it was new. 
    Replace Now: The battery is functioning normally but holds significantly less charge than it could when it was new. You can continue to use your battery until you replace it without harming your Mac. 
    Service Battery: Your battery is not functioning normally, and you should have your Mac serviced. 
    Monitor your portable computer’s battery
    If your battery won’t charge completely
    If your battery’s status is Not Charging
    If an X appears on the battery icon in the menu bar
    I hope this information helps ....

  • My Macbook Pro running slow even after format

    Hello guys, I've had this problem with my 2009 unibody 13" Macbook Pro for at least a month. Last month I tried to reinstall OSX Lion which i previously had, but the install failed for saveral attemps (probably for my slow internet). I finally managed to get OSX Lion on and it was increadibly slow even no programs are installed so I reinstalled it again and again but the same problem still comes up. So i went to an Apple Store (Thailand) and the apple guy assisted me by trying harddisk permission repair, reinstalling the os again, none worked, i still get a super slow computer. So I went home and downgraded the os to snow leopard, it seemed to work just fine at first but after i install several (4-5) basic applications, it started to get slow again (still faster than when it was lion). Whenever i open two or three applications at once or even browsing a webpage alone i get the spinning rainbow cursor. Somebody told me its probably the harddrive, who do u think? please help - thanks.

    Yes it is your hard drive.
    Backup your files off the machine and before you reinstall OS X again, this time use the 10.6 disk > Disk Utility > Erase with Security Option > Zero All Data, make sure your ENTIRE hard drive is slected on the left.
    Let that complete and install 10.6, then update to 10.6.8, that should be the fastest OS X version for that machine.
    If you go to 10.7, it's going to slow down a little bit again.
    If you can't complete the Zero erase (it takes some time to finish) after trying 2x and or still having problems after that, then the drive is causing the defective sectors and needs to be replaced.
    Keep your boot drive below 50% filled for maximum performance, but never more than 80% filled.

  • Why is my Macbook still slow even after upgrading

    Hi everyone, I'm not sure if this has been answered before but here goes.
    So I have a Macbook 2.4GHz (13.3-inch Intel Core 2 Duo "Penryn") - Early 2008. Have been using it for the past 6 years without any issues. However during the past 1 year I've noticed that it has started to run slower and slower. Even simple task such as opening Safari might take longer than usual. I do not have much application installed as I only used that computer for surfing the net and making Words & spreadsheet documents. I have about 200GB of free hard disk space out of the 250GB standard HDD along with 2 GB of ram. After doing some research around the forum, I decided it might be a good idea to upgrade the HDD to a faster 7200rpm 750GB HDD drive as well as replacing the ram with new 2x2GB modules. I also did a fresh install of OS X Mountain Lion 10.6.8 (I did not install any other applications). But to no avail, it seems that the computer is still laggy and isn't as snappy as couple of years back. And by laggy I mean that opening pre-installed applications on the Mac such as iPhoto and Safari might still take 4-6 "icon bounces" to open.
    So my question is,
    1) What might still be causing the lag?
    2) Are there any other components on a Macbook that might cause it to slow down?
    3) Does components like the CPU degrade over time?
    Any help would be highly appreciated.

    Your computer isn't getting slower, it's other things demanding faster.  If you are installing all the possible updates to software those will be designed for newer computers.  Once you start browsing you're browsing a web designed by people who because they spend all their time designing pages they themselves have powerful machines with fast connections because it is their job.  It's like if all city streets were designed by racecar drivers.  A 2008 computer is already considered vintage by Apple and close to no longer being supported in any manner.  Vintage and obsolete products - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1752  I have an even older computer than you and it is annoying but that's the way things are.
    Frankly 4-6 icon bounces doesn't sound long to me.  Don't forget that for applications such as iTunes how long it takes to open will also depend upon the size of the library.
    I don't think CPUs wear down.  Conceivably some slow-down could be the result of excessive bad sectors on a hard drive but you say you replaced that (and I would expect it to have shown more serious symptoms were that happening).
    You can use Activity monitor to check your RAM usage.  Newer applications and newer OS versions will require much more RAM than posted "minimum"  If a computer doesn't have enough RAM it starts using the hard drive which is slower than chips.

  • MacBook Pro running slow even after RAM update.

    I upgraded from 512 to 2GB of memory because Mac was running slow such as applications would some times take forever to open especially files on quicktime. After the upgrade though i have the same problem, Slow performance. Any advice or solutions?

    Hi Vetty, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    It would help to know exactly which model of MBP you have.
    Also, how much free space do you have available on your HD? If under 10%, that is likely the problem.
    Some things you can try:
    Background Maintenance in Terminal
    1. Log in to an administrator’s account.
    2. Open Terminal (located in Applications, Utilities).
    3. Copy and paste in the following command (or type it exactly):
    sudo periodic daily weekly monthly
    4. Press Return.
    5. Type in your password when asked (note: you will not see anything being entered as you type your password).
    6. Hit Return.
    7. Wait until the Terminal prompt returns; this can take 5-10 minutes, but is usually under 5 minutes (the prompt returning will be your only notice that the tasks have finished).
    8. Quit Terminal.
    Repair Disk: Boot from install disc (insert disc>restart>immediately hold down c key and keep holding it until you see “Preparing Installation”)>at first screen go to Installer Menu>open Disk Utility>select your HD in the panel on the left side>click Repair Disk at bottom of main window. Run this at least twice, and keep running it until it says “appears ok” twice in a row. If that doesn’t happen, you may need a stronger utility such as DiskWarrior or if the directory is damaged beyond repair, you may need to reinstall the OS, or you may have a damaged HD (repair utilities can only repair the directory structure, not the HD itself).
    Repair Permissions: Applications>Utilities>Disk Utility>select HD in panel at left>click on Repair Permissions at bottom of main window and allow process to finish before quitting DU.
    Safe Boot
    PRAM Reset
    SMC Reset

  • Very slow connection even after upgrading firmware router WRT54G2 v1.5

    I have also re-set the router and configured but it didn't work. Any other alternative to speed up my connection? Thanks!!

    On the setup page,reduce the MTU to 1400,Under the Wireless tab..Wireless Network mode should be mixed...Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box.Set the Wireless channel to 11-2.462GHz...Click on Advanced Wireless Settings...Change the Beacon Interval to 75,Fragmentation Threshold to 2304,RTS Threshold to 2304.

  • Macbook pro slow internet after upgrade osx mountain lion

    Slow safari after upgrade to osx moutain lion.

    Have you reset Safari? Yet?  Top left corner of the screen next to the apple logo click on the word Safari, then click reset safari, make sure everything is checked then click reset.  Also try:
    Repair your permissions.  Go to applications then to the "other" folder then go to disk utility, on the left hand side you will see a white box.  Select the second option, usually called "mac HD" with that selected click on "repair permissions" in the center towards the bottom of the screen.  Wait for it to complete, then see if this fixes the issue.

  • Even after upgrading to testing/xorg I get slow glxgears

    My glxgears is stuck at 286 even after upgrading my xorg to the version in testing.  I have a i915 chipset and was getting > 1000fps using Ubuntu breezy colony 1.  Should I post my xorg.conf file or is there something obvious I may be missing as to why my frame rate is so bad?

  • Why are both my Mac's so slow now after upgrading to Mavericks?

    I have 2 Macs, an MB Pro Core i5, & Mac Mini Mid 2010 Core 2 Duo, (both 4/320's) and both have remained significantly slower, even after indexing, unless indexing takes days upon days. I understand why the Mini may have taken a speed dip, but a Core i5 unit too?

    The upgrade was done over a dysfunctional system. Do this:
    Fixing a Mavericks Installation Problem
    How to manage a failed OS X Mavericks installation | MacFixIt - CNET Reviews.
    Re-download and reinstall Mavericks.
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Slow responses after upgrade to lion

    slow reponses after upgrading to Lion

    Slower with Lion-----Same story as Texas Cats above.
    Lion is killing me and my attention span was erratic to begin with...now I can't get anything accomplished.
    Replaced my 80 GB hard drive with a new 160 GB HD and it did nothing!
    I was told by Apple Genius Bar that more memory might be the answer but my mid-2007 MacBook is not supposed to be capable of handling more than the 2GB I have installed.
    Idid the clean-up, cache cleaning, photo removal, etc. Just trying to access simple searches on Google or Safari via Verizon Fios can be excrutiating. So far I have spent $400. on upgrades, etc. and wondering if Lion should be uninstalled?

  • Macbook MID-2012 crashing every day (Kernel Panic)

    Hi!
    I hope I'll find some help here.
    My new Macbook (MID 2012) is crashing everyday. I read that this might be a RAM issue (maybe due to the fact that I installed 16GB 1600Mhz of Crucial), but this would really surprise me because I only got this issue after some weeks of the RAM replacement. In some cases I need to restart my MB a couple of times to get it run again. Also pretty weird, I got a similar issue when using Ableton Live, my trackpad an my keyboard freezes (computer continue working), and then I need to restart it a couple of times, and one of the two USB holes isn't working anymore (and to get it work again I need to reboot it again). For information : I have an USB hub with a MIDI keyboard connected, an external HDD, an USB Key, a Dongle, a Keyboard and a Mouse. I'm also using an external Audio Card, connected to the second USB hole, and a 27'' Screen. I really would like to reproduce theses crashes, but it's always happening at some random moment (not necesseraly due to a RAM overloard or so) Maybe some issue in my configuration.... Any thoughts ?
    Thanks in Advance !

    Before you do anything, finc and remove the following kernel extension:
    com.avira.kext.FileAccessControl          1.0.0d1
    ...it could be anywhere but your root System>Library>Extensions would be a good place to start. If you can't find it, download the free "EasyFind" from the Mac App Store and search for "avira." Once you move the kext (to a Desktop folder, for example) reboot and see if you're still having kernel panics.
    Good luck,

    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.

Apps like temple run 2 and subway surfers are getting stuck and it is very very slow.My ipod has 2.6 gb free space. What is the problem. I am not getting to know. Even after i reinstalled these apps it is still getting stuck and it is very very slow. Is this what i get after paying so much money for ipod. Is this what i get very poor perfomance.

    Periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The 4G only has 256 MB of memory.
