Macbook Pro Retina 15 inch 2.3 running seriously slow

Macbook Pro Retina 15 inch 2.3 running seriously slow lately, anyone else having this? It's been almost a year since i bought it but i only use it for making music and the internet. Got 70 GB free space just in case. It's an absolute nightmare right now. Anyone else having this, any ideas what i can do? Seriously heating up as well.

The kernel_task is basically the OS kernel, so it will fluctuate depending upon what is accessing it. Do you notice this with any other application you are running? What are you doing when the kernel_task ramps up to 300%? How much RAM is installed, and what do you observe about usage in Activity Monitor?
About OS X Memory Management and Usage
Using Activity Monitor to read System Memory & determine how much RAM is used
Understanding top output in the Terminal
The amount of available RAM for applications is the sum of Free RAM and Inactive RAM. This will change as applications are opened and closed or change from active to inactive status. The Swap figure represents an estimate of the total amount of swap space required for VM if used, but does not necessarily indicate the actual size of the existing swap file. If you are really in need of more RAM that would be indicated by how frequently the system uses VM. If you open the Terminal and run the top command at the prompt you will find information reported on Pageins () and Pageouts (). Pageouts () is the important figure. If the value in the parentheses is 0 (zero) then OS X is not making instantaneous use of VM which means you have adequate physical RAM for the system with the applications you have loaded. If the figure in parentheses is running positive and your hard drive is constantly being used (thrashing) then you need more physical RAM.
Adding RAM only makes it possible to run more programs concurrently.  It doesn't speed up the computer nor make games run faster.  What it can do is prevent the system from having to use disk-based VM when it runs out of RAM because you are trying to run too many applications concurrently or using applications that are extremely RAM dependent.  It will improve the performance of applications that run mostly in RAM or when loading programs.

    Do Not post stuff about how Airplay doesnt work, because i dont have Apple TV and dont need to hear about it.

    If you have an external drive equal to or larger than your internal HD, clone your internal to it with either Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper. Test the clone to make sure it's bootable. Then upgrade either one. Try it out first.

    i am unable to use airdrop between my 6 plus and MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2011) running yosemite.any solutions? thank you

    There aren’t any. AirDrop between the platforms requires that the Mac support Bluetooth 4.0, which wasn’t introduced to them until the 2012 models.

  • MacBook Pro Kernel_Task over 300% ; laptop running very slow

    My new (4 week old) MacBook Pro suddenly this weekend started running very slow with the fan running constantly. I found the "kernel_task" was running the CPU over 300%. I tried various methods mentioned in different threads but nothing worked. I eventually went all the way to wiping the disk and reinstalling the OS. This has NOT fixed the problem. I do not know where to go next. I am posting a copy of the EtreCheck report I ran, and I am looking for any help.
    The next step is taking this thing back to the Apple store. I love my MacBook, but not when it is not lagging like something running Windows ME. I expected more out of this machine than this.

    The kernel is using excessive processor cycles. Below are some possible causes for the condition.
    Throttling
    When it gets high temperature readings from the hardware, or a low-voltage reading from the battery, the kernel may try to compensate by interrupting the processor(s) to slow them down and reduce power consumption. This condition can be due to
    a buildup of dust on the logic board
    high ambient temperature
    a worn-out or faulty battery in a portable
    the malfunction of a cooling fan, a temperature sensor, a voltage sensor, or some other internal component
    Note that if the problem is caused by a sensor, there may be no actual overheating or undervoltage.
    If the computer is portable, test with and without the AC adapter connected. If kernel_task hogs the processor only on battery power, the fault is in the battery or the logic board. If it happens only on AC power, charging is causing the machine to heat up. That may be normal on some models. CPU usage should drop when charging is complete.
    Apple Diagnostics or the Apple Hardware Test, though not very reliable, is sometimes able to detect a fault. For more thorough hardware testing, make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.
    If nothing is wrong with the hardware, then whatever you can do to improve cooling may help.
    Installed software
    User-installed software that includes a device driver or other kernel code may thrash the kernel. That category includes virtualization software, such as Parallels and VMware, as well as most commercial "anti-virus" products. Some system-monitoring applications, such as "iStat," can also contribute to the problem. You can test for this possibility by completely disabling or removing the software according to the developer's instructions, or starting in safe mode. Note, however, that disabling a system modification without removing it or testing in safe mode may not be as easy as you think.
    Corrupt NVRAM or SMC data
    Sometimes the problem is cleared up by resetting the NVRAM or the SMC.
    External display
    Connecting an external LCD display to some MacBook Pro models while the lid is open may cause this issue. If applicable, test by closing the lid or disconnecting the display. You might get better results with a newer LED display.

  • MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2011) running slow on start-up

    Hi,
    My MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2011) seems to be running very slow on start-up and when i have more than two applications open. This only seems to have become apparent following my upgrade to Yosemite. I read a few blogs and i decided to disable FileVault in the hope that it would speed up, but it has not. I have also verified and repaired permissions of the HD and start-up disk in Recovery mode. Can anyone help?

  • Brand new macbook pro retina - fan noise when running hola?

    Hi everyone, I need some help here please!
    I have a brand new macbook pro retina 13 - just bought in January this year - and have had no problems so far apart from the wifi dropping occassionally.
    So I just downloaded hola unblocker for firefox but whenever I stream anything using it on netflix my fan starts whirring so loudly - it's never even made a noise before! and I can feel the base of the mac getting hotter. So I've closed hola/firefox and it stops after a minute or so. I've tried a few times again with the same problem.
    I'm just using it to watch US netflix so probably not technically legal anyway.... but other friends manage it no bother - do mac's just know I'm doing something wrong? haha
    Thanks for any advice.

    Try running Activity Monitor (in the Utilities folder). Click the Energy button at the top and then stream a video. Watch the Energy Impact.
    I suspect what you'll see is that your rMBP is doing a lot of work while you're streaming the video, and that makes it get hot. The fan struggles to dissipate the resulting heat in order to prevent damage and makes noise in the process.
    It may also have a guilty conscience.

  • I downloaded Yosemite to my macbook pro and now it is running extremely slow, freezing all the time. I did the Etresoft and copied the results as suggested to other  Please help me fix the issue.

    Problem description:
    I upgraded to Yosemite recently.  Now my computer acts like it has a virus although my virus checker says it is clean.  It is slow, freezes all the time, I have to turn off my computer to get it to work again.  I don’t like the new Yosemite.

    Thank you all for the help.  My mac still freezes.  I've deleted what you suggested.  I hope it did it right.  Can you check and help me out?
    Also I went through the list and saw this
    MATSHITADVD-R   UJ-8A8
    Could this be the reason why my CD/DVD player quit working because it's crap?
    thanks

  • MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008) suddenly very slow and laggy

    This seems to be a popular question so I apologize, but I know there can be a number of issues that cause a computer to run slow, so I want to post my computer's specifics and hopefully someone can diagnose the issue for me without my having to bring it into the store. Thank you in advance.
    Specifically my MacBook runs slow when trying to open or close Microsoft Word, iTunes, or access a folder with pictures and short videos in it. Frequently I get they are not responding, or have to close out of everything else in order to get the spinning wheel to go away and sometimes that doesn't even help.
    I would just like the computer to be able perform simple commands in a timely manner like it used to. If there is any way I can get back to this I would be eterrrrnally grateful!

  • Macbook Pro 13 inch early 2011 running slow

    Hi, I've had my Macbook Pro (13", early 2011) for about three years now and it has been very well behaved up until now. It has 4GB of ram and is the basic model of its kind. I recently upgraded the operating system to Mavericks but I noticed it was being slow even before the upgrade. I have everything backed up on an external hard drive through time machine so data loss isn't a worry.
    I have noticed that opening applications such as Mail, Word, Google Chrome, iCal, Spotify and iPhoto have become increasingly slow and browsing the internet (youtube, tumblr, etc) is similarly slow with content and sound lagging. I wonder if I should buy and install more ram? Or is it a problem with the hard drive? On average how long would a macbook pro of this age last?
    Any help would be much appreciated!

  • My Macbook Pro (purchased in mid 2009) runs really slow after updated the software.

    How can I get it to run faster?

    Find out what it is doing:
    Runaway applications can shorten battery runtime, affect performance, and increase heat and fan activity
    anything using double-digits is suspect.

  • Can I use my time machine backup to migrate my files to macbook pro retina from my macbook pro 15 inch?

    I'm using a macbook pro 15 inch mid 2011 running on mountain lion.
    I have a complete backup of my files on time machine.  If I get a macbook retina, whats the best way ti migrate?
    Can I use my time machine to restore to the new retina mac?
    Thanks

    I'd just use the Time Machine restore function when setting up your new machine. If you don't have the TB>FW adapter, how do you plan to connect to your external drive with your TM backup? You may have to resort to Migration Assistant - but it would be helpful if you had the TB>Ethernet adapter so that you could hardwire both machines to your router - going wireless is going to take a long, long time. If your external has a USB port, you could use that for a TM restore...
