Macbook pro mid-2012 13" has very slow disk access

Until 3 days ago my macbook pro mid-2012 13" running OX 10.8.3 was running fine. Then, it showed very slow response anytime it had to access the hard disk. After doing the usual checks and disk first aid repairs to no avail, I booted from my external disk with an older copy of my hard disk and everything then worked as normal, except when I accessed the internal hard disk, then it crawled once again (spinning beach ball, took many seconds just to open a finder window and then several minutes to display the contents). I ran the Apple Hardware Tests and it said everything was fine, even though it tooks several minutes before the test would actually start. I also ran the program BlackMagic Speed Disk to find out if the disk was having transfer speed problems and it showed a respectible transfer rate (60MB/s), not great but not like the 0.3MB/s I was getting when I tried to back up the internal disk. I was using Carbon Copy Cloner to try to back up the internal disk but had to give up since at 0.3MB/s, it would take days to back up the 250GB on the disk. I found on the web that using "restore" in Disk Utility, I could do a disk copy without the file by file copy which allowed me to back up my disk in "only" 6 hours. Booting from my newly made copy on an external disk worked fine and ran at nearly normal speed (slightly slower since it was an external disk running through USB2). As a final attempt to prove this was a disk problem, I erased the internal disk and reinstalled OSX 10.8. I am still waiting for this install to finish, it has been 5 hours although the progress bar said it should be done in 20 minutes. This was fairly convincing evidence that it is not a software or settings problem. However, all my web searches could find no other case of a problem like mine. I presume I have a failed hard disk but as all the diagnostic programs say it is working fine, I was hesitating to bring it in without hard diagnostic evidence. If anyone knows what might be the problem, it would be much appreciated to hear from you.

It should not take 5 hours to install Mac OS X. There is something wrong with the disk. Try reformatting where you do a wipe of the drive (an select the option to write zeros which will remap bad sectors). Then try to install MAc OS X.
I got this information from here:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-20064489-263.html
Back up your data.
Use Time Machine or a system cloning utility to create a full and restorable backup of your data. If you suspect bad blocks, then when cloning you might consider not using a "block-level" copy process, since this will likely run into problems.
Boot to the utilities DVD.
If you have a boot DVD for a tool like Drive Genius or another drive utility, then boot to that; if not, use your OS X installation DVD (once you select your language, open Disk Utility from the Utilities menu).
Format the drive.
Using your selected utility, format the drive and check for bad blocks. If you are using Disk Utility, click the Erase tab, click the Options button, and then select the option to write zeros to the disk (you do not need to do multipass erase options, as this will provide no additional benefit for managing bad blocks). Writing to zeros may take a couple of hours depending on the size of the drive, but when done the drive will have remapped any blocks that were not reliably read.
Restore the OS installation.
If you have used Time Machine to create your backup, boot to your OS X installation DVD (if you are not using Disk Utility) and use the option in the Utilities menu to restore from backup. Attach your Time Machine drive and then proceed with the restoration, selecting the newest backup as the one to restore to your system. If you have used a system cloning tool, then attach the cloned drive and boot off of it (hold the Option key at start-up to select it from the boot menu). When you are booted to the cloned drive, run your cloning utility to copy the installation back to the computer's main boot drive.An optional approach here is to perform a full reinstallation of the OS from your installation DVD, and then migrate your data, applications, and settings from either the clone or the Time Machine backups using Apple's Migration Assistant.

Macbook Pro "13 2.7Ghz 2011, VERY slow after Sleep

So, this is the case.
I recently changed from windows to Mac, and by first look, I was very impressed, BUT!!
Ever since I bought the Macbook Pro I have had a little enoyig problem.
Whenever I close the lid or it goes to sleep automatically (cause of the timer), it will be very slow, when I open it up again.
I tested this a few times, justclosing the lid, wait 30 seconds, and then open again (with no applications running exept Safari (1 tab)), and when I try to scroll on Facebook in safari it laggs like I was trying to play Crysis 2 on a N64 =)
Before I close the lid (Before Sleep) everything runs smoothly, but if the computer has gone to sleep I reach a point when I cant work with the computer cause of the enoying lag, and I have to restart the computer.
WHen I restart, everything is good again, even if all the windows comes upp.
Please, are anyone experiencing these problems?
My specc: MacBook Pro 13" 2.7Ghz 4Gb Ram, 2011 version. Running Lion 10.7.1
Hope some of you can help.

There was no big processes running mentioned in the other post, and I didnt quite understand what you ment with the picture, but my Energy Saver (in Norwegian) looks like this. (first picture is on battery and second with power connected)

My macbook pro 10.6.8 is very slow????

My 2011 macbook pro 10.6.8 is exteremley is slow????

Thank you, I did prety much most of the performance guide you reffered me to and looks like it is a bit better, I will have to see how it works. Though another problem i have is that any disk i put in just spits it back out, wont run any supplied disk, I bought HP printer and the installation disk that came with it, my mac wouldnt run it I had to call hp to help me download it via web.

My MacBook Pro is brand new but very slow. So disappointing. Why is it starting very slowly?

My Macbook Pro 13' is brand new however, it does not serve me well compared to my old compaq laptop. It is so annoying and disppointing. I am also a new user of Mac than Windows. There's something going on especially when I am to start up my Mac, it takes so long. Very embarrasing even. Plus, I thought of adding a mcaffee anti-virus thinking it will solve any problem but it gotten worse. Nothing so disppointing like Macbook PRO! can't even uninstall completely the anti-virus. Can someone please assist a beginner in Mac like me? Thank you.

Macbook Pro all of a sudden very slow.

My Macbook Pro has all of a sudden become very slow. The rainbow wheel shows up about every minute, and battery life has reduced a lot. I lost about 10% of my battery life within 10 minutes. It freezes all of the time. I recently upgraded to mountain lion about a month ago and everything has been fine since about 2 days ago. Any ideas on what it could be?

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.
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.
Otherwise, take the steps below when you notice the slowdown.
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.
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.

MacBook pro late 2011 (4G, i7) very slow to load any program after installing Mavericks

After instaling Mavericks, my Mac has slowed down so much, when I turn on my Mac it takes forever to load, and after it loaded, takes longer (then what it did before) to load any program.
Any help please?
My specs: MacBook PRO 13" late 2011, 4Gb RAM, Intel i7 2.8Ghz System most of the times shows 90-97% on idle (yet slow).

Check activity monitor, if a keener activity is taking a lot of CPU resources then Try this link http://www.rdoxenham.com/?p=259
You will have to keep an eye on your temperature, but that's it.

My MACbook Pro (mavericks 10.9.5) is slow especially when time machine is going off.

I have noticed that my MacBook Pro (10.9.5 version with 515gb of 750gb available and 8gb memory) is slowing down terribly. I do not know if this is because my Time Capsule is now full and deleting older files or if this is because of the Mavericks update. It seems to only affect my work with files and programs on my computer, not out on the internet.

Hi again Joani,
If you need to make space on your computer and Time Capsule, I have two articles here below that will help you do this:

MacBook Pro Retina 2013 will freeze if waked from long sleep if left with open lid

Hello!
Have a strange problem.
My new MacBook Pro Retina 13 will not wake from sleep state if left with open lid for a long period of time. (8-12 hours)
Ship happens ONLY in this case and only if left with open lid.
Screen lights up, I see a user window with password invitation - but no mouse pointer is present and keyboard doesn't respond and the apple on the backside of the lid is light up even if I close the lid.
TimeCapsule backups are creted during sleep state, no other malfunctions detected during use - laptop funtions normally from any side except this problem

Solved.

MacBook Pro Retina EFI Update 1.0 taking a long time

Does the MacBook Pro Retina EFI Update 1.0 take a long time - mine is just saying "Waiting..." after 20 minutes. Updating from the App Store. Thanks

hi, i wasnt able to find the EFI update in my App store. My computer is also MBPro Retina Mid 2012.
would you mind telling me your boot rom version after you successfully installed this EFI updated? (Anyone?)
mine is:
Boot ROM Version: MBP101.00EE.B02
Although i dont remember installing this EFI update. After I installed 10.8.2, i was only able to see the iphoto update, and
after that, nothing. Until now, there's no update from App Store.

My Macbook Pro (Early 2011 model) is VERY slow when I use it without the charger

When it's not plugged in, my macbook doesn't function in its normal speed. Basically it lags. But when I plug it in to a power source, it works fine.
I've tried checking hardware but the AHT doesn't work anymore.
I'm not sure when it actually started but I think this has been happening after I upgraded to Yosemite.

Try SMC and NVRAM resets:

I use Acrobat X1 Pro. When I launch it I get these pop up about buying or trying DC. I pressed the privacy link to stop it, but it hasn't. It says Acrobat Application Manger. It literally overrides launching Acrobat x1. I use a macbook pro with yosemite.

I use Acrobat Pro X1. I use a macbook Pro with Yosemite. Was working fine. Last time I launched the software, I got this Abrobat Application Manager poping up and overriding the Acrobat launch asking to buy or try Acrobat DC. I can't make it go away, even when I press the privacy link. Please don't tell me this is some malware bug. Should I uninstall the current AX1Pro and reinstall it. This is very frustrating.

Slow performance after installing Yosemite on an older Mac is often caused by inadequate memory. Although you can install the upgrade on a Mac with 2 GB of memory, experience has shown that at least 4 GB is needed for full performance.
Select About This Mac from the Apple menu. If you have less than 4 GB of memory, and your model has upgradable memory, install as much as it can take, or at least that much. Any reputable RAM vendor will have a web form in which you can select the Mac model and be directed to compatible parts.
Memory in the MacBook Air is not upgradable. If that's what you have, you should restore the previous system from a backup, or replace the machine. Ask if you need guidance.
The Etrecheck report clearly shows that SylvieRose has a Macbook Pro, not a Macbook Air and that there are only 2 GB RAM installed. The Etrecheck report can be very informative if one takes the time to examine it.
Ciao.

My MacBook Pro just started to run very slow, what can I do to fix it?

My MacBook Pro just started to run very slow, what can I do to fix it?

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.
Otherwise, take the steps below when you notice the slowdown.
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.

Macbook Pro running Yosemite is running very slow. Takes long time to login and open applications. My Etrecheck report is listed below
