Macbook Pro Running Slow and Very Hot!!

I took my Macbook to the Apple store and they analysed it and said that there was no problem with the actual Macbook and they updated the software. It is still running very slow and really hot. They cost alot of money and am really not happy with this happening after just two years of having it.

You are still under warranty. Call Apple tech support. Let them deal w/it.

Macbook Pro running slow and getting hot very quick

So I own a macbook pro, and i bought it last november. Lately its been running really slow, and it gets hot really quickly.
when i go to look at my storage, it says i have 435.14 GB free out of 499.25 GB so i dont think space is an issue.
What can i do to fix this? I can't get on my macbook for longer than 10 minutues without it getting hot, and it takes me forever to load pages, etc.
It's still fairly new so i dont see why i would be having problems already. I only really use it for school and some misc web surfing. can someone help me out please!

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.
Did you fix it? how?

MacBook Pro running slow and freezing--Installed OnyX

I am having problems with my MacBook Pro. For a while I was using Safari and getting the beachball A LOT. So, I switched to Chrome. For the past two days it has been running slow and freezing...when typing it would freeze and a few seconds later it would resume and the letters I typed would appear. After reading forums, I did the repair disk permissions. Nothing changed. I downloaded OnyX. After executing two tasks under cleaning..I believe System and User, it is already running better and hasn't froze once. My question is...which tasks should I perform on OnyX? I read somewhere that not all of them should be done. Like I said, I only did 2 and then stopped. I'm kind of over my head and don't want to screw anything up or do anything that doesn't need to be done. Any help would be appreciated.

HT2353 Macbook Pro running slow and freezing

So it just started yesterday running slow and freezing. I'm starting to get very frustrated. I research to see what could be the problem. I saw people suggesting that it could be the storage. My storage is 464.75 free out of 499.25. I just brought this computer last year on christmas. I thought it could be adblock but it never cause me problems but I paused the app and it still doesn't work. What is wrong? Should I restart the computer? If I do how can I backup my things? Also i'm really not a computer person so if you can describe to me the problem in layman terms that'll be great!
OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.4
OH! and it's not just safari that's going slow but itunes,word,etc

Hello,
See if the Disk is issuing any S.M.A.R.T errors in Disk Utility...
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH7029
Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on CPU%, any indications there?
How much RAM & free Disk space do you have also, click on the Memory & Disk Usage Tabs.
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
In the Memory tab of Activity Monitor, are there a lot of Pageouts?

MacBook Pro running slow and lagging during app switches/start

I mean, it's really getting bad. I have to force quit repeatedly and then by some miracle - something takes and the program opens. Most of the time this happens with Photoshop and Firefox (which is what I use most often). PS does not have a bunch of add-ons running or installed. It's pretty much CS3 factory.
I ran Disk Utility yesterday - during the verify disc, it told me to boot from the install disc to fix the 2 errors it found. I backed everything up and I did. Ran all the verifies and repairs from the start disc.
Still running slow and by this I mean when I open an application it takes a ridiculously long time to open the double-clicked document or just the program itself to get to a new doc. I noticed it again this morning with Excel (which is something I don't usually leave open and running).
What else I have done, which helped but just a smidgen ... was to remove all the extra fonts (and I did have thousands) in Font Book. I also removed Font Book entirely because it was another program that was locking up and needing force quit all the time ... and I just plain don't like it. So I installed Suitcase Fusion and only have the bare minimum needed in there (which kind of bothers me since I am used to have thousands on hand that just need to be turned on or off - yes I know, I keep them all off unless they are absolutely needed). But I only have one set in the Suitcase (42 font family).
I got my laptop in Feb ... so this painfully slow and lagging stuff shouldn't be happening. It used to work great. I could have all the apps open, flipping between them, really getting things done.
Here's my comp info:
Version 10.6.4
Processor: 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory: 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
HD: 500gb but I have 345gb free
Any obvious things I am overlooking? Any suggestions on how to get this fairly new thing back up to speed?
Thanks!

Can anyone help??
Help with what?
You haven't described a problem, but there are several potential sources of trouble.
Safari Extensions:
    Dashlane: Version: 2.4.1.62949
    Omnibar: Version: 1.2
    PriceBlink: Version: 4.1
Unless you know the purpose of those extensions and have reason for using them, uninstall them.
Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
User Internet Plug-ins:
    NPRoblox: Version: 1, 2, 8, 25 - SDK 10.9 Support
    npBcsMcTcIO: Version: (null) Support
    Dashlane: Version: Dashlane 1.0.0 - SDK 10.7 Support
Anything with an undecipherable name is probably attempting to mask its true purpose. In the case of "npBcsMcTcIO", I believe it's a coupon printer or something like it.
Most of those things are used to cause Internet searches to be redirected to sites for someone's benefit other than your own, or to deliver targeted advertising you may not want. If you don't know what that one is, uninstall it. To do that read: Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
To remove unwanted modifications in Firefox, perform actions equivalent to the above.
The same applies to "com.coupons.coupond.plist":
Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
Google Drive has been known to cause problems, but given that Google's reasons for supplying "free" software are primarily for its own benefit, it may be working precisely as Google intends. Use Google's products as you wish, but by doing so you must accept the detrimental effect on your Mac's performance, and you must forfeit an unknown amount of what you may consider private details of your personal life.

Macbook Pro running slower and making more noise.

Problem description:
Hey everyone, I have noticed that my macbook pro has been running slowly. Sometimes firefox freezes and never unfreezes and whenever I play videos my computer runs slower than usual. I have started turning off my laptop whenever it is not in use but it is not helping very much. Can anyone give me any advice. I have also provided my etrecheck report.

Hi,
Maybe you should take a look at your Firefox add-ons and get rid of the ones you don't really need. Also, you have two torrent items mentioned in your report. Downloading torrents runs the risk of bringing in malware.
Another thing to do as maintenance is to start into Recovery -- holding down Command and R keys together while booting up -- and using Disk Utility (bottom of the box that appears) to Verify your disk and Repair disk permissions.
Regards.

Macbook pro runs slow and itunes wont open

My macbook pro froze and went to a black screen while I was using quicktime so I forced shut down and rebooted and now it runs really slow and itunes and quicktime wont open. I am completely updated

Your MBP should be able to accept 6 GB RAM. I suggect that you install the maximum. Yosemite should run more efficiently as a result.
I note that you have Novatel and Sierra wireless installed. If you do not need one, delete it.
Ciao.

Macbook Pro running slow and freezing...please help?

Hi there everyone. I have a Macbook Pro that's a few years old and it started to experience some slowdown and freezing recently, which was even worse after installing Yosemite. It's mostly running slow on Safari but it seems that programs are freezing and taking way longer to open and close too. I'm not all that familiar with diagnosing these sorts of issues on Macs and was hopeful that someone could take a look at this for me? This is the EtreCheck report, and any help would be much appreciated! Thanks guys.

Why is my macbook pro running slow and I can also hear the fan running continuously

My macbook pro started running slow last night. I turned it off and waited til this morning to turn it on again. It is still running really slow when I browse through my dock or apps and everything takes forever to open, my fan is also running pretty loud, I could not hear it running until last night. Can anyone help me out?

Okay so I followed those steps, what exactly does this mean?

Macbook Pro Running Slow and have NO Idea Why!

For the last few days, my 10 month old Macbook Pro has been running really slowly. Sometimes, it is perfectly normal. But other times, it just is really slow. Typing will show up a few seconds later, it will take a few seconds to switch tabs in safari/chrome, and it takes a while for an application to open. Anyone have any idea what could be going on?

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Reset the System Management Controller.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
Otherwise, take the steps below when you notice the problem.
Step 1
Launch the Activity Monitor 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. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
Next, select the Disk Activity tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
Step 2
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

My Macbook Pro runs slower and will freeze up

Hi guys. Im running Snow Lepard 10.6.8 and I have a 2009 Macbook pro 2.66 Ghz Intel Core Duo, Memory 4gb 1067 MHz DDR3 (this is what it sas on my "About This Mac") My computer seems to be running a little slower and can freeze up on me where I can't shut it down properly. It doesn't neccesarly freeze up with any particular program. Is this a hardware or software issue. I can use all the help I can get. Thanks!

How large is your hard drive and how much hard drive space do you have left?
