macbook pro running slowly after installing Maverick.  Solutions?

Hello art02,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
If your Mac runs slowly
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10798
If you find your Mac is running slowly, there are a number of potential causes that you can check.
If none of these suggestions work, you may need to repair your computer’s disk in Disk Utility.Repair a disk
Best of luck,

  • Early 2011 MacBook Pro incredibly slow after installing Mavericks

    I'm really hoping someone can help me out. As per the subject line, I installed Mavericks on day one (and learned my lesson!).
    Since installing Mavericks my MacBook Pro runs incredibly slow. If I open the Mail App and Safari - it almost grinds to a halt. I have the "Memory Clean" App which I now have to run constantly (it appears to help a little) and I try to only launch one app at a time where possible, but it's not really pratical.
    As an aside, my MacBook ran really well with Mountain Lion, so there's little doubt to my mind that Mavericks is the culprit.
    I'd be eternally grateful for any help & advice :-)
    I spotted other people advise running EtreCheck, here are my results:

    CleanMyMac is probably your problem.
    CleanMyMac is crapware.
    Crapware is anything that purports to "optimize",  "clean", "accelerate", "monitor", or "protect" your Mac. These apps are unnecessary, poorly written, overpriced (if they were free, they'd still be overpriced), and harmful. The people who sell this stuff know this, but they keep selling it because people keep buying it. They can damage your OS and be difficult to uninstall.
    I would try to uninstall it, but if that fails, you may have to erase your HD and do a clean install.

  • Has anyone else had issues with their Mac running slowly after installing Mavericks?

    Ever since I installed Mavericks, my MacBook is running waaaaay slower. One of my favorite things about Macs has always been how fast they boot up, but ever since Mavericks, mine takes forever. A lot of programs like GarageBand and Premiere Pro are also running really slowly. They used to work great. Anyone else having this same issue?

    The first thing to do is ensure you have adequate backups, because what you describe can be a symptom of impending disk failure.
    To help determine the possible causes of this behaviour read the following. None of what follows is intended to fix anything, but it will provide the additional information required to advance troubleshooting. There are four separate parts to it; read everything first.
    Boot OS X Recovery by holding ⌘ and r (two fingers) while you start your Mac. At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red. If Disk Utility reports "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK" in green then you can be reasonably (though not completely) assured your hard disk is in good working order.
    When it finishes restart your Mac and test again for operation. If it's still not behaving as you expect it should, please post the results of EtreCheck in accordance with the following instructions:
    Apple Support Communities contributor etresoft wrote a very useful app to quickly gather certain system information that may help point to a cause of this problem. Read about it here. It contains a link to download EtreCheck. Don't download it from anywhere else (such as may be found by following the results of an Internet search).
    Click Open - etresoft contributes to this forum frequently and can be considered a trustworthy developer.
    It will take a moment to run as it collects its data.
    Copy and paste its output in a reply.
    Do not be concerned about anything that says "Problem" or “failed” or anything else that may appear in red.
    EtreCheck was designed to remove any personal information (such as your computer's name and serial numbers) but if you see anything that looks like an email address or any other personal information that should not be divulged to others, please delete or obscure that information when you post the reply.
    When you are finished with EtreCheck, quit the program. It occupies very little space, and you can keep it or drag it to the Trash as you wish.
    After completing the above please determine if the problems also occur in "Safe Mode":
    Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
    You must disable FileVault before you can start your Mac in Safe Mode.
    Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
    Merely starting your Mac in Safe Mode is not intended to resolve the problem, it's to observe its performance without certain additional components.
    To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.
    System performance problems for reasons that cannot be isolated to any other cause justify an SMC reset. Be sure to read the procedure carefully and follow all the steps exactly as written, even if they seem inapplicable or trivial.

  • My macbook pro runs slow after install of lion

    i was wondering if anyone is having any issues after installing lion and doing the 10.7.3 update? i noticed a slow performance after i did the  update. i also added 8 gigs of memory hoping this would help, but it didnt i also formatted the drive install snow leo and my boot time was 2 minutes i upgraded to lion and my boot time jumps to 6 plus minutes. i have run the disk permission finds some problems then repair but still my macbook runs slow HELP ME!!!!!

    Launch the Console 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, press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
    Step 1
    Select "system.log" from the file list. Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the times of the log messages referring to boot times. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the time of the most recent boot when you had the problem. Post the messages logged during the time when you had the problem – the text, please, not a screenshot. For example, if the problem is a slow startup taking three minutes, post the messages timestamped within three minutes after the boot time. If the problem is a crash or a shutdown hang, post the messages from before the boot time, when the system was about to crash or was failing to shut down.
    Edit out excessive repeats and personal information, if any.
    If the log doesn't go back far enough in time, scroll down in the Console file list to /private/var/log/system.log.0.bz2. Search the archived log, and if necessary the older ones below them, for the same information.
    Step 2
    Do the same with kernel.log.
    Step 3
    Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the most recent one, if any. For privacy’s sake, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please do not post shutdownStall or hang logs – they're very long and not helpful.

  • Macbook Pro randomly restarting since installing Mavericks

    Hi guys,
    I've got a mid-2010 Macbook Pro. Since I installed Mavericks, about 6 months ago, it's started restarting at random (it just goes black and then goes through the reboot cycle. Sometimes it can happen a few times in the same hour - sometimes once a week. It doesn't seem related to what programs I have open or how hot it is running. It often happens a few minutes after the machine has awoken from sleep, but this isn't always the case.
    I was convinced that this was due to the faulty nVidia chip which was included in some mid-2010 MBPs so I took it to the Apple genius bar and showed them this KB article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4088 (having first done a clean install of OSX).
    They ran "VST (Video System Test) 1.0.3v5 for Macbook Pro (15-inch, mid-2010)" and it passed. They then took the laptop into the back room and "ran some more hardware tests", all of which passed too.
    I bought the machine back to my house and started reinstalling software. About 10 minutes ago it restarted itself again (with the same GPU panic message and GPUPanic.cpp:127 line). The only difference between this restart and those before I reinstalled Mavericks is that the previous restarts would be proceeded by a "your computer needs to restart because of a problem" whereas just now no message was displayed until the computer fully rebooted, and then a "your computer was rebooted because of an issue" message was displayed.
    I've only installed a few pieces of software, and nothing that I thought would mess with the graphics drivers.
    Could anyone please take a look at my logs and see if anything looks amiss? The genius has stressed that it cannot be hardware related so hopefully somebody will spot something.
    The only other thing perhaps worth mentioning is that I have 3rd party RAM and a 3rd party SSD harddrive in there. Could either of these be responsible?
    Thanks,
    Joe

    I just wanted to share my experiences with Apple recently.
    To give some background: my mid-2010 Macbook Pro started restarting randomly after I upgraded to Mavericks and the logs indicated that it was the GPU issue. I am currently residing in Dublin so my nearest Apple store is over 100 miles away in Belfast (a 2-3 hour drive or train journey).
    I first took the machine to the Apple store on the 8th March, having first made an appointment at the Genius Bar. I had entered details of the issue into the concierge system and the Genius seemed to know what he was dealing with. He ran the GPU test - which it promptly passed - but, after this point, I didn't see the Genius again as he disappeared into a back room, never to return.
    About 20 minutes later (as I was beginning to get annoyed) someone else came and asked if I was being helped. I explained the situation to him and he hurriedly offered to "take it in the back to run further tests". I agreed and left the machine with him - but in all the kerfuffle I left my charger behind.
    I went back and collected my laptop as the store was closing. I briefly discussed the test results with a different Genius, who suggested that it must be a software issue. He said that - as I had restored the OS to factory settings before the visit - it was most probably fixed. Given that it had not restarted since I restored the machine (the night before), I agreed and left.
    Unfortunately, I didn't realise that I'd forgotten my charger until I got home. I called the store the next day but was told that it's "not Apple policy" to post things out and that if I wanted the charger I'd have to collect it from the store myself. I was then told that it would probably be better for me to "just buy a new one" given the distance involved!
    Anyway, the next day I was reinstalling some software and the machine restarted again. I made a post on here and was told that the logs still suggested a faulty GPU, and that the Genius should have spotted it.
    So I made another trip to Belfast!
    First, I tried to collect my charger. After some crossed wire between staff members, it turned out that someone had labelled my charger and left it on the side for me to collect, but then someone else had then thrown it away. To Apple's credit, however, they gave me a new one off the shelf without hesitation.
    Next, the Genius ran the same test again and this time it failed. I asked the Genius why it would be the case that the EXACT same test would pass one day and fail the next but he didn't have any ideas. It is *my* theory that the test not only checks the GPU itself, but also looks in the log folder for logs that indicate a faulty GPU and that, by restoring the OS before I took it in, I effectively "cleared" this folder and made it impossible to detect.
    Anyway, he next mentioned that it was out of warranty and that I would need to pay for a repair. However, I had a printout from the trading standards site which outlined the Sale of Goods act and how (under UK law) we are protected for 6 years from purchase if a product is defective. He spoke to a couple of managers and agreed to replace the motherboard without charge.
    Next, he wanted proof that I'd purchased the machine directly from the Apple website, as apparently their records only go back 18 months (!). Unfortunately, I lost some emails a couple of years back and no longer had the receipt but - after another discussion with managers - he agreed to proceed anyway.
    He then said that I would have to come and collect the machine in a few days. The trading standards guidelines say that the RETAILER is responsible for arranging collection and delivery of the faulty product so I asked whether they could ship it to Dublin. However, he argued that to do this I would have to rearrange everything through AppleCare and have them collect/deliver the machine. So, having gotten this far (and not wanting them to change their minds), I just agreed.
    Anyway, I received an email saying that it was ready a few days later so I went back to Belfast again and collected it. So far (touch wood) it's been working perfectly and without a single restart.
    So, the things to remember:
    1) The test may not detect the issue the first time but that doesn't mean it's not there
    2) Restoring OSX to factory settings MAY impede the ability for the test to detect the issue
    3) It doesn't matter if you're out of warranty if you're covered by Consumer Law (check out the law in your country)
    4) Don't leave your charger in the Apple store!
    NB: I'm not a lawyer, of course, and none of this constitutes legal advice; I'm just hoping it will help some people as there seem to be a LOT of folks having this issue.

  • MacBook Pro is slow after install new OS X Yosemite

    My macbook pro is freezing after I installed
    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:

  • Macbook Pro Running Slowly and Pinwheeling a lot

    I have been having an issue with my macbook pro running very slowly lately. Everything just feels slugglish, and sometimes menus and other programs take a while to respond. I have 4 GB of RAM, and I just feel like things are running too slow for a computer with a Core2Duo and 4 Gigs of RAM. I have snow leopard installed.
    Also, the computer came with 2GB, but I upgraded to 4 myself. I did not buy the memory from Apple though, I bought it directly from crucial. Is it possible the memory has gone bad or something. I really don't know what to do.

    Do you still have the slowness problem when running OSX from the DVD (not running AHT)?
    Is this symptom occasional, or all the time?
    Most of the classic problems causing slowness that can be user fixed have been covered, but it does not mean totally eliminated.
    The hard drive can still be intermittently bad despite the SMART status. I would put the original RAM back, and boot from an external Firewire hard drive with my backup HD clone. If you don't have one, you should - you might need it sooner than you think. This test can confirm if your internal HD is causing this or not.
    I suppose it's also possible that you've developed a software problem and reloading OSX might help. This is quite a lot of work without a backup clone or Time Machine backup. You may have to take it to a technician if you don't feel up to doing this.

  • Why is my macbook pro running slow after os x yosemite upgrade

    Why is my macbook pro running so slow after os x yosemite upgrade

    Please describe the problem in as much relevant detail as possible. The better your description, the better the chance of a solution.
    For example, if the computer is slow, which specific actions are slow? Is it slow all the time, or only sometimes? What other changes did you make, if any, just before it became slow? Have you seen any alerts or error messages? Have you done anything to try to fix it? Most importantly, do you have a current backup of all data? If the answer to the last question is "no," back up now. Ask if you need guidance. Do nothing else until you have a backup.

  • MacBook Air 2010 died after installing Mavericks, happened to anyone else?

    Having installed Mavericks onto my early edition MacBook Air it has totally died.
    - It will no longer charge, in fact the light doesn't come on at all on the Magsafe (tried two different chargers both still charge my MacBook Pro)
    This happened after I turned it off for the first time having installed the new OS.
    Anyone else had their Air turned into a brick by Mavericks?
    I've got a genius bar appointment on Saturday but thought it was worth seeing if anyone else had suffered the same issue. Keen to know if my battery had just reched the end of it's life (although it was still lasting a good number of hours under Moutain Lion) or if Mavericks has caused the issue.
    Thanks!

    The panic was caused by the Yamaha audio device or its software, maybe with help from one or more of the other third-party system modifications you've installed. I suggest you disconnect the device, back up all data, and then remove the software according to the developer's instructions. Reboot and see whether there's an improvement. If there isn't, post your results.

  • Macbook Pro running slowly, bad crunchy(?) sound, and now shuts off randomly

    Hi there,
    I have an early 2011 13" Macbook Pro running OSX 10.8.4. For the past six months or so, my computer has been running relatively slowly. I brought it into a shop, but the guy couldn't figure out what was wrong with it. In the past two months or so, the sound has been terrible, whether it's watching youtube videos or listening to something on itunes or playing a game. it will sound fine, until like 30 seconds in when it will go all crunchy and garbled and terrible sounding. I don't know how else to describe it. Just now, my computer randomly turned off in the middle of me playing a game, and at first it wouldn't turn back on. I'm a little freaked out by that, as I'm a graduate school student and my computer is my life. I'm just trying to figure out what's wrong with it. :/
    I've attached the crash report from the shut down here. Does anyone know what this means? Thanks for your help!
