Macbook pro retina slow after 10.8.2 update

updated yesterday my mbp retina, and while my mac partition works fine, my windows system has started IMMEDIATELY lagging.... games i was running at 50FPS for the past month... suddenly dropped down to 5... no patching or updates or any changes..... all in bootcamp. that's the only thing i've changed....
anyone got any hints on this?
i saw someone posted about resetting the SMC... that didn't do anything for me.....or perhaps i'm doing it wrong? can someone clarify how to reset the SMc?
i tried holding left shift, alt, ctrl and power same

UPDATE: Temporary Solution.
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/6606352204?page=2
It hes something to do with SMC problem. You have to reset it.
"This is how on the Retina :
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC."

macbook pro retina 15 after update OS X 10.9.3 to 10.9.4 can't connect wifi with Channel Width 40 HMz

That's odd. I assume this is the 5 GHz band, right?
Have you tried changing the router to do auto 20/40?
Have you tried deleting and reconnecting to the wifi network?

Black screen on MacBook Pro Retina Display after installing Moutain Lion. Need Help!

My macbook pro (retina) screen went black after I installed Mountain Lion.
I got a HDMI cable to another monitor and the image worked nicely there.
But i cant get it back on my MacBook Pro! I tried taking out the HDMI cable, restarting, searching on settings configs..
What should I do?
Are there any drivers i should install to get image back on my MacBook Pro Retina Display?
Has this happened to anyone else?
Thanks in advance for all the help.

That helped me finding other people with similar problems.
But there is a major difference!
-They have a black screen after they login.
-My screen is black NOW! And I'm only using my BRAND NEW rmbp with the HDMI cable to my TV!
This isnt good at all and I would like to solve it asap..
I tried reinstalling Mountain Lion, taking out the hdmi cable and rebooting many times.
Until now, nothing!
Is my screen broken or maybe my video card has some problems?
I hope not! I just traveled from the US to Brazil and I dont want to search for an Apple Store here.
Any tips or ideas are welcome, thank you.

Macbook Pro got slow after upgrade to 10.9.5 (Mavericks)

Hello,
I have updated my Mavericks system to the latest version released recently (10.9.5) and since then my system is much slower than it used to be (with side effect that fan is still active).
If I take a look into Activity Monitor, I can see that the process called opendirectoryd is consuming big percentage of CPU power (around 200%).
Looking into the console in system.log is giving me the following failure messages which are being displayed every 10 minutes (roughly):
Sep 18 17:12:38 VLAPE02mac1446 com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.opendirectoryd[1694]): Exited with code: 70
Sep 18 17:12:38 VLAPE02mac1446 automount[1700]: od_search: query failed: The daemon encountered an error processing request.
Do you have any idea what could be the problem?

Hi from Russia!
I observe same behavior with my MB Pro Retina.
After login to corporate domain controller, opendirectoryd begins excessive consumption of CPU resources and memory. This activity can eat all the RAM, and then the computer dies.
In /var/log/opendirectoryd.log i see many sections like this

Macbook Pro Retina crashes after SMC Reset

Hey guys. My macbook pro retina is constantly running its fan at full speed at random times. The fan is always running on high even when I do not have any background apps running. And every time I try to perform SMC reset, my macbook crashes and I have to reinstall OS X all over again. Some other issues are that I cannot update my computer without crashing and having to end up re-downloading the software again. Also, when starting up my macbook on the new Yosemite, the loading bar when logging in gets stuck, which again results in me reinstalling the software or restoring from an old backup. People have suggested replacing the SSD in the computer but I believe it may be the motherboard that may need to replace. I own a Macbook Pro Retina 15" early 2013 running OS X 10.10. And everything is factory when it comes to hardware.

I just bought a new charger and it appears to be working, so looks like that problem was not with my MBP but rather with the charger itself.
I am noticing that my fan is a little quieter now, but still doesn't sound normal. I have looked at Activity Monitor and nothing is using a lot of CPU at all (highest is Chrome at 6%). The MBP does get hot when the fan is going. I have looked at videos for cleaning/replacing the fan, which I think may be a good idea, but I don't have the proper tools at this time. It's something I'll keep looking into.
Also, Chrome and Mail both seem to be working now, randomly, even though I haven't done anything else. It's weird that they both stopped working immediately after I did an SMC reset, but maybe it's just a coincidence?
I will do another SMC and PRAM reset if further problems persist. Thanks for all the help!

Brand new macbook pro retina issues after yosmite update

My Macbook pro retina was working fine until I had Mavericks, but after updating to Yosemite the following problems has started.
Touch pad stops responding now and then
Fails to open launchpad sometimes
Boot camp wizard is missing
Scrolling doesn't work quite often in Safari
Fan starts running when cpu is cool without load, but fails to run when hot while playing games
Battery performance is dropped.
Computer has become comparatively sluggish.
Doesn't display 'about this mac'.

I did call them and it seems there is no solution except sending it back to them and getting a new one.
This is by far the most strange issue I have seen. Seems more like a hardware issue than software.
Thanks for you suggestion though. I will post an update ones this case gets resolved.

MacBook Pro is slow after install new OS X Yosemite

Yosemite
What to do?

Hi brn2win67,
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. I understand that you are experiencing performance issues with your MacBook Pro after installing OS X Yosemite. The following resource provides information if your mac runs slowly:

A new update is out for Macbook pro retina but my laptop says no updates available??

Please advise as to how I can get the new update for wifi on my Macbook Pro Retina 13". My laptop says I'm up to date and no updates are available but I did not get this new update that was released just a few days ago? Please advise????

Before applying any update, backup your data at least twice:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-1992
Next check if you can download the update from http://support.apple.com/downloads/?val=MacBook+Pro#?val=macbook pro. If it isn't there, then it probably doesn't apply to your machine. Double check with the local authorized service center that it is necessary.

No Sound, Safari Slow & MacBook Pro Very Slow after upgrading to Yosemite.

Hi All,
Upgrading to Yosemite has resulted in the following issues with my computer/laptop:
1. I have lost all sound and the sound options are no longer there after looking in Preferences.
2. Safari only loads parts of pages and then takes forever to load the rest.
3. Generally the computer has been slow with processes taking over the CPU and there seems to be a lot of hard memory swaps.
Attached is the EtreCheck.    Any help would be appreciated.   It appears that I also am missing some daemons that are launching.

Macbook Pro 2011: slow after yosemite upgrade

Hi,
I recently upgraded to yosemite, and during the installation, the installation bar stopped at about halfway and stayed there for hours. Knowing that it was going nowhere, I powered the computer down and turned it on again. After this, the installation appeared to be completed because it let me actually use the computer, but it was painfully slow. So I redownloaded yosemite and tried to reinstall it. However, the installation got stuck at the same spot, and another manual reset resulted in use of the computer, albeit at a snail's pace.
So I tried to reset the PRAM, then i tried starting in safe mode, then i tried booting normally, none of which worked. After reading on these forums, I found out about Etrecheck, I was able to download it and ran it yesterday. Here are the results:

Please and thank you for your help. I am currently writing ~2 words before the loading wheel comes up and stops me from typing for about 10 seconds.

There are several ways to back up a Mac that is not fully functional. You need an external hard drive or other storage device to hold the data.
1. Start up from the Recovery partition, from Internet Recovery, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) Launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.” The article refers to starting up from a DVD, but the procedure in Recovery mode is the same. You don't need a DVD if you're running OS X 10.7 or later.
If you use FileVault 2, then you must first unlock the startup volume. Select its icon ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another disk icon, usually with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar. Enter your login password when prompted.
2. If Method 1 fails because of disk errors, then you may be able to salvage some of your files by copying them in the Finder. If you already have an external drive with OS X installed, start up from it. Otherwise, if you have Internet access, follow the instructions on this page to prepare the external drive and install OS X on it. You'll use the Recovery installer, rather than downloading it from the App Store.
3. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, start the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
4. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.

If your system is still sluggish after ridding your computer of these unwanted things, then consider installing additional RAM - 4 GB is considered the absolute minimum to run Yosemite.

Macbook pro runs slow after sleep mode.

This issue has bothered me for a long time already.
And because of this, I have re-installed the OS many times.
But apparently, re-installing the OS does not help.
The machine will runs slow again after a certain period of time.
So, here is my problem.
When you do the four finger down swipe, there will be a zooming out effect, right?
(The same function as pressing F3, which let you knows how many applications you have opened)
This zooming out effect is smooth when I first bought my Macbook Pro.
It is smooth too after I re-install the OS.
But now, after a period of time, this effect becomes so choppy and slow.
As I mentioned above, I tried re-installing the OS. It works, but only works for a few days.
And then it becomes choppy again.
The only solution is to reboot my machine.
Can anyone suggest me what to do?
I guess I have to re-install the OS again tonight... LOL

Try using Disk Utility to do a Disk Repair, as shown in this link, while booted up on your install disk instead of re-installing.
You could have some directory corruption. Let us know what errors Disk Utility reports and if DU was able to repair them. Disk Utility's Disk Repair is not perfect and may not find or repair all directory issues. A stronger utility may be required to finish the job.
After that Repair Permissions.
No need to report Permissions errors....we all get them.

MacBook Pro runs slow after Mountain Lion installation

I have a mid-2009 13" MacBook Pro with 2.2g Ghz processor, 2 GB of RAM and 160 GB encrypted disc.
After installing Mountain Lion and the recent upgrade OS X 10.8.1 (12B19), the system runs noticibly slower than with Lion, which ran slower than the previous version. This shows up in opening and closing programs, rate that drop down windows appear when something is clicked on the task bar, rate that windows open and close, rate that the dock comes up and the icons expand when the curser is moved over them, etc.
Due to my type of work, I need to encrypt the disc. I know this is costing me some speed. I unencrypted the disc and it ran noticably faster, and when I re-encrypted it seemed to run faster than before unencrptying and re-encripting. I have repaired permissions and verified the disk OK.
Somewhere in the build up to Mountain Lion release I thought I read where 4 GB of ram was recomended for Mountain Lion, allthough now the specs indicate 2 GB is OK. In activity monitor, the pie chart for system memory seems to always remain less than about 40% of active memory (yellow).
What recomendations does the community have to increase the speed of operations back to when this system was new?
Dave

I was having the exact same problem. My MacBook Pro was seriously close to unusable how slow it was. On a different thread, someone recommended I reset the VRAM and PVRAM (not sure about those initials). Shut down computer. Rebooted while holding down Command-Option-P-R all at the same time until I heard the second startup tone and then released. I noticed an improvement in performance immediately.

MacBook pro extremely slow after upgrade to Yosemite

after upgrade of MacBook pro to Yosemite everything runs extremely slow. Apps Internet everything. Any fixes for this? I read email chains back from October. Anything more current?
