MacBook Pro very slow to bring up homepage, won't open programs; likely related to attempt to upgrade Java software on the Parallels side, not successful because of low C drive capacity, recommended C drive compression not successful/completed.

MacBook Pro very slow to bring up homepage, programs won't open; likely related to failure to upgrade Java on Parallels, told that C disc low capacity, disc compression recommended was unsuccesful/failed. Rebooting, battery removal hasn't helped. Can't open Systems Preferences. Suggestions?

Linc, the resident dump guru, will probably be along in awhile and provide deeper insights, but here goes for now. I'm seeing an awful lot of warnings and messages from Chrome. Any chance you could lay off that browser for awhile and use Safari in the meanwhile? No red messages anywhere in the listing. Have you tried rebooting into Mountain Lion Recovery Mode to do a Repair Disk and Repair Disk Permissions? (Cause in spite of what your config tag says, the dump indicates you are running a ML kernel)

  • MacBook Pro - Very slow, Full RAM, Fan is constantly on - With EtreCheck, etc.

    Hello everyone! Thank you all in advance for any type of help or advice, I appreciate it a lot.
    I am using:
    MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2012)
    Running OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.2
    Processor 2,3 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 512 MB
    Macintosh HD has 294,08 GB free (out of 499,25 GB)
    I am a student, using my MacBook constantly during the day. Applications that I use daily - Safari, Word, Outlook and Finder are always on; a lot of the time I am also using Photoshop CS6, Skype.
    Ever since the update to OS X Yosemite my MacBook did slow down noticeably. I left this issue unattended as I was using uni computer at the time. Recently I returned to the actual studies and design work on my MacBook. I couldn't cope with how slow it was, ended up in forums looking for the solution. I tried a couple of things already (was restarting/shutting down computer in-between these tasks):
    1. Disabled FileVault (it was on for moths, I had no idea of what it is), completed the decryption process (it took around 10 hours).
    2. After that I ran EtreCheck, that found a couple of actual and potential issues, I more or less sort it out, will attach the new report in the end of the post.
    3. Tried to disable Spotlight to affect mds, not sure it worked.
    4. Moved to Trash apps I wasn't using, properly uninstalled only a couple of them. Emptied trash.
    5. Erased Safari history that emptied about 500MB of RAM, but then it went back to almost 3.98GB full out of 4GB.
    At the moment I only have Safari on and kernel_task takes 570MB of memory, used RAM is 3,88GB out of 4GB.
    Fan is constantly on, MacBook is very slow. If I understand correctly RAM is the main issue, unfortunately being a student I am not able to buy and install more memory. I also understand that Photoshop takes a lot of RAM memory, what can I do about it? Photoshop is a crucial app for me.
    Is there a way to free some of the RAM memory and make my Macbook faster? Would a clean Yosemite install help? (Can Yosemite at all perform properly on a MacBook with only 4GB memory? What will help it run faster?)
    Here's my EtreCheck report:

    Thanks a lot in advance! Looking forward for the possible solutions!

    Let Spotlight finish indexing your HDD.  Stopping it is pointless.
    Regarding the fans, it is always running when you turn on the MBP.  It is a question of how fast. If there are light loads on the CPU, the fans should be near silent.  If otherwise, try a SMC reset.
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295
    If that does not slow the speed at very light loads then there are other reasons that need to be explored.
    If you cannot instal;l additional RAM (your MBP will accept up to 16GB) then you will have to accept slower performance.  Yosemite is a RAM glutton.  The best sources of Mac compatible RAM are Owc and Crucial.
    Time Machine or any other backup is only necessary if the data you have on your MBP is important.  Ask yourself this question:  What will be the degree of inconvenience should the internal HDD fail?  All hard drives eventually fail.
    Ciao.

  • Macbook Pro VERY SLOW since mavericks! Please Help!

    My Macbook pro is a late 2012 model, 2.3GHz Intel Core i7 with 4GB ram
    Ever since upgrading to mavericks, it has slowed down immensely! It was never this slow or buggy with Mountain lion
    It takes a good 2 minutes to load mail, finder is very buggy - it will take a good minute to load a photo - which was not normal
    I also run Adobe CC design software - and it is very very slow
    Safari is extremely slow and buggy, and sometimes shows screens as below:
    I was going to upgrade to 2x8GB ram which will be 16GB of ram - will this solve the problem?
    Should i upgrade to yosemite? will these problems be fixed please?
    I have tried asking the Apple Outlet here in Malta but they are of no help at all, don't know where else to ask!

  • Hello, I need help with my macbook pro. It looks like I cannot install anything anymore. Everytime I try to install a new software, use the migration assistant or click the lock to make changes, it simply does not react.

    Hello, I need help with my macbook pro.
    It looks like I cannot install anything anymore. Everytime I try to install a new software, I simply get stuck during the installation type process. I put in my password, it does accept it, but it does not go any further.
    I tried to reset the password, put no password, repair the permissions, the disk but nothing will do. I nearly got stuck with the log in screen but finally succeeded in disabling it.
    So I thought I might try to create a new account but I cannot click the lock to make changes. It simply refuses to react.
    I am now thinking about using the migration assistant to save all my settings, data and so fourth, but again I get stuck when I have to type in my password. It accepts it but nothing happens...
    I guess it has something to do with the authorization process, but can't find anything on the internet about it... Can you help me out?
    I am running Lion 10.7.3.
    Regards,
    Nicolas.
    (I apologize if any grammatical/structural mistakes were to be found, english is not my mother-tongue. )

    You probably won't like this suggestion, but I suggest you reinstall Lion.
    First, backup your system. Next, reboot your system, press/hold the COMMAND-R keys to boot into the Recovery HD. Select 'Reinstall Mac OS X'. If you purchased Lion as an upgrade to Snow Leopard, the reinstall process will install Lion 10.7.3. If your system came preinstalled with Lion, you might still get Lion 10.7.2. Both installs are a total install of the OS. None of your apps or data will be impacted. Just the OS.

  • Why is my Macbook Pro very slow to boot and also everything else?

    Hi,
    When I start my computer, it remains at the silver screen with Apple logo forever. The startup boot is supremely slow.
    Even while i am opening applications, the icons keep on jumping at the dock for a long time before the application starts.
    The problem started about two months ago however it has worsened a lot recently. This is my etrecheck profile. Hope it helps. Any help will be appreciated.
    My MacbookPro is very slow. Here's the Etrecheck report.
    Let me know what i should do.

    Please uninstall "Cisco AnyConnect" and see whether there's an improvement. If there is, check to see whether there's an update, or preferably, use the built-in Cisco client instead.
    Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
    Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
    I never install system modifications myself, and except as stated in this comment, I don't know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find that information.
    Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickMyMac” (a hypothetical example.) First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickmymac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickMyMac.” If not, open “BrickMyMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button. The uninstaller might also be accessed by clicking the Customize button, if there is one.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    You will generally have to restart the computer in order to complete an uninstallation. Until you do that, there may be no effect, or unpredictable effects.
    If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software.

  • Audio problem and macbook pro very slow

    Hello,
    I have a macbook pro for less than a year.
    The latter has begin to be very slow. In addition, I have no sound which are emitted from my Mac, setting apart the opening gong. By the jack, there is no red light that are emitted. I tried to go in the program "audio setup midi" but it does not even want to open. So I tried to open the configuration panel go to select a new audio output device, but to my surprise, after an interminable waiting times, I got a list of blank audio device .. .
    I noticed that it started when I put my Mac to version 10.7.4 ... So this is very recent ...
    When downloading the update, I was editing a script with automator and my Mac was rammed by an HDMI cable has a television, if it ever can help.
    I was wondering how to solve my problem.
    thank you
    Bonjour,
    j'ai un macbook pro depuis moins d'un an.
    Ce dernier a commencer a être très lent. De plus, je n'ai plus aucun son qui es émis de mon Mac, mise a part le gong d'ouverture. Par la prise jack, il n'y a pas de lumière rouge qui es émis. J'ai essayé d'aller dans le programme "configuration audio midi" mais celui-ci ne veux même pas ouvrir.  J'ai donc essayé d'ouvrir le paneau de configuration pour aller sélectionner un nouveau périphérique de sortie audio, mais a ma grande surprise, après un délais d'attente interminable, j'ai eu droit a une liste de périphérique audio vide...
    J'ai remarqué que cela a commencé lors que j'ai mis mon Mac à la version 10.7.4... Donc, c'est tout récent...
    Lors du téléchargement de la mise à jours, j'éditais un scripte avec automator et mon Mac était banché par un cable HDMI a une télévision, si jamais ça peux aider.
    Je me demandais comment résoudre mes problème.
    Merci

    The startup drive is failing, or there is some other internal hardware fault.
    Back up all data on the drive immediately if you don't already have a current backup. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional—ask if you need guidance.
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.
    If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
    Keeping your confidential data secure during hardware repair
    Apple also recommends that you deauthorize a device in the iTunes Store before having it serviced.
    *An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

  • After upgrading to Mavericks, macbook pro very slow

    Hiya
    I upgraded to Mavericks and ever since then my macbook pro is very slow.
    When I try to open a new finder window, I get the rainbow ball. Chrome is extremely slow. Word is also slow to open, slow to wake, and slow to shut down. Pretty much everything is slow!
    I did repair permissions using disk utility, but that didn't solve the problem.

  • 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.
    Problem description:
    MacBook Pro has been running slowly ever since upgrading to Yosemite.

  • Macbook pro very slow few weeks after Mavericks update

    Hi,
    Please I am in need of assistance. I have noticed some significant performance degradation after my OS upgrade. Slower system, spinning wheels, hanging and once crashing and restarting. I used to be able to run many apps simultaneously while zipping along. These days not so much.
    I have run an etrecheck (following the example found in some other discussions). Please see output below. Any suggestions or advise is very welcome:

    15” MBP Mid 2010 models have been recalled for GPU issues.  See https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-5681.
    Official Apple statement: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4088
    Print out a copy of your kernel panic and a copy of this Knowledge Base article and go to an Apple store or Apple Authorizes Service Provider with your machine and the documentation.
    Genius reservation http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/ .
    or find an Apple Authorized Service Provider https://locate.apple.com/country
    If it has been three years since your date of purchase then you are past the date covered by the recall but sometimes they honor it anyway.

  • Importing photos from iPhone to iPhoto on my MacBook Pro very slow

    It's taking the best part of thirty minutes to import the photos from my iPhone 5 (iOS 6.1.4) into iPhoto (version 9.4.3) using my MacBook Pro (10.8.2). I've tried rebuilding the iPhoto databse which didn't have any positive effect to the process. I've got 8000 photos in iPhoto and 1700 on the iPhone. I'm doing the import everyday so there's usually not more than 20-30 photos to import, any idea why it is taking so long and what I can do to speed it up?

    How full is your system drive? Can it be that you are running out of disk space?
    Has it always been this slow to import from your iPhone, or only recently?
    If it is a recent problem, what has changed lately? Have you installed, uninstalled, or updated any software?

  • Macbook Pro very slow, won't play vids etc. Please help

    Have run the etrecheck diagnostic software, results below:
    Problem description:
    Internet browsing very slow, particularly when scrolling on large pages.
    DVD will only play sound, video is just a black screen.
    Youtube would originally only play small screen, now won’t play at all.
    Generally slow all round - lots of “egg timer”

    Internet browsing very slow, particularly when scrolling on large pages.
    DVD will only play sound, video is just a black screen.
    Youtube would originally only play small screen, now won’t play at all.

    Your MBP needs more RAM based on the quantity of 'Page outs' vs 'Page ins'.  4 GB should be the minimum upgrade, 8 GB would be better.  The RAM specifications for a 2009 MBP are;  204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM.  The best sources of Mac compatible RAM are OWC and Crucial.
    Delete any software for mobile communications devices that are no longer using.

  • Early 2008 MacBook Pro - Very slow start up, very hot

    Hi All,
    Looking for some help. Searched quite a few of the online forums and have not been able to resolve this issue.
    A few months back, my old reliable MacBook Pro (early 2008) started behaving oddly. Have no idea why, but went to start it up one day, and it took forever to start up and get me to the login screen. Been like that ever since. Occassionally, when I finally get to the login screen, the keyboard will not function. After a few minutes though, it always works. This only happens about 5% of the time. Once I log in, everything about the computer from a performance perspective seems to be pretty normal In addition to the slow start up, however, system gets extremely hot at the top of the keyboard, near the monitor. Fans run fast almost all the time when the system is powered on, and often when it is 'asleep'. CPU Temp goes to about 170, and the fans are always between 2400 and 3500.
    I took it to Apple a while back, and based on the incredibly slow start up time they believed it was a disk issue. I went ahead and purchased a 500GB internal drive and this past weekend used SuperDuper to copy the original boot disk. All went well and I now have a new internal disk. At the same time, I upgrade the RAM from 2GB to 4GB.
    After all that, the system is still very slow at startup and runs as hot as it did before. I will say, it does seem to be slightly faster on the startup, but not what I had become accustomed to for the first 4 years of use.
    I looked at the activity monitor and don't see any processes hogging resources.
    No anti-virus software running.
    Currently running Mac OSX 10.6.8
    My battery is pretty muc shot, but I never really use the system unplugged.
    Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

    Hi there
    I am having a similar issue, my mac is the same age but I am getting a major heat issue.
    looking for some possible solutions.

  • Macbook pro very slow on battery

    Okay I had a couple of incidents with my macbook and not even once I went to the stores for repair as I don't have any near me. First I put a magnet atop of mac's hdd. It got corrupted or stopped fuctioning. Then I started using an external hdd for using my macbook and it worked fine with or without battery. One day while my mac was in use I spilled water on it and then shut it down. It didn't start. After a couple of days under the fan and hairdryer it started with the external hard drive. But now the problem is that the fans get to high speeds with nothing processing and gets heated up like hot iron. Besides if put on power and used then the screen is smooth and the mac atleast works well but when used on battery the screen lags and applications take too long to open as if the processing speed has reduced very much. Here are the specs
    Macbook Pro 13-inch, Late 2011
    Processor 2.8 Ghz Intel Core i7
    Memory 8Gb 1333 Mhz DDr3
    Graphics Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB
    OS X 10.8.3
    And I get mild currents when I touch the aluminium body . Not always but at times so is that normal or something else?
    Please help me I will appreciate for any help and give 5 points but please I am in great trouble
    Sorry for bad english

    You've had numerous 'user accidents' with your computer and these, no doubt, have contributed to your problems - perhaps the liquid spill causing the greatest damage.
    The only thing that I can recommend is that you take your computer to your local Apple Store or an AASP and have them run full diagnostics on your machine. They will give you a 'free' estimate on how much it would cost to repair. More likely than not, at the very least, you are looking at a complete replacement of your logic board, whcih can be very expensive.
    Good luck,
    Clinton
