Macbook running extremely slow .. please help.
I have a second gen macbook w/ 2ghz intel core duo and 1 gb of ram. The machine is running extremely slow. I am unable to load web browsers (all) under 30 seconds and they are all unstable if they do open. Please let me know if there is a fix for this. Thank you very much! S
How full is your hard drive?

My macbook runs extremely slow when logging in after waking up from sleep, locking up and I am unable to use the keyboard. Furthermore, when just using safari to watch streaming television, my computer gets really slow, and locks up, and the dock appears blank and I sit here frustrated. Anytime i wake up my computer, my keys don't respond and I've waited at most 3 minutes untill i can type in my password. Even sometimes when i type in my password and hit enter, it takes forever to open up my mac. I have barely used any storage in my macbook, since i only use it for college, and I have run clamscan wiht no viruses showing... Any ideas?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output andWi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test. -

If you are not using TeamViewer, remove it also. If you had it running while you ran Etrecheck, then it doesn't need to be removed.

MacBook Pro 13" Suddenly Started Running Super Slow, please help!
Yesterday I was on the computer on Facebook, then I spilled a juice over the keyboard. I turned it off and let it sit there, then I turned it on and it took about 3 minutes to show the Log in screen, then I logged in and it was taking long to load the stuff in my desktop and it was being really slow for everything.
Please Help!
I got it on December, and I don't have much time with it!! I really need to fix it.
Oh and the track pad stopped moving the pointer...This should explain it:

Macbook running extremely slow
Hi,
I have a 2012 Macbook Pro. I believe the model is a Macbook Pro 9.2. I am running Yosemite and increased my RAM from 4 GB to 8GB a month ago. Up until yesterday afternoon it was running completely fine. Now it is extremely slow. For starters it takes a good 2 minutes to boot up and even once it is booted up it takes another two minutes before it will open any programs or applications. I have plenty of hard drive space available (over 300 GB) and when I check the Activity monitor there does not seem to be any programs using up more CPU or RAM than I would expect. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what the problem is, or how I should proceed with troubleshooting from hear on out?in advance.
Thanks for any helpHi Linc,

Apple TV Extremely Slow - Please Help
I just received an Apple TV for Christmas and this is my first Apple product that I have ever been disappointed with. It's EXTREMELY SLOW! I am using it wirelessly through my Time Capsule and I have a pretty fast DSL connection. I also have a Roku box and a BluRay DVD player that has internet services as well like VuDu and NetFlix. Movies start almost instantly on all of my devices and play flawlessly except the Apple TV. Movies on Apple TV take about 5 to 8 minutes to start versus only just a few seconds on my Roku box and instantly using VuDu. Is this normal or do I have a defective unit?
Just wanted to let you all know that I have the same Problem
I own a iMac with 802.11 N WiFi With Airport Extreme I also use an iPhone 3GS WiFi G and have recently Purchased an Apple TV I can never get my Apple TV to hit rate speed of 72 or higher. I have tried everything My iMac hits rate speeds of 270 sometimes Using 802.11 N while my apple TV only hit 72 at the highest even My iPhone 3GS hit speeds of 58 to 60 with WiFi G. I have noticed that even if I set up a separate Network using the 5Ghz of the Airport Extreme I get even lower speeds like down to 38 to 40 on my Apple TV I realy dont have a lot of problems downloading movies per say but there have been times were I have had to wait like 20 min just to watch a 720p video from youtube or Movie Trailer. I can go from my TV to my computer using the same network and get the movie downloaded a lot faster using my computer???? What is going on Apple???? I really enjoy Apple products but I have to say I am somewhat unsatisfied with the Apple TV....What am I doing wrong??? I have tried to move my Airport extreme right next to Apple TV and with no speakers or anything around and I never get higher that 72 or so I Want to know is my iMac Airport Extreme Just reading it wrong or What... Please Help Apple????

G5 now extremely slow - please help
I have a 3 year old IMAC G5 PowerPC that up until 2 weeks ago ran like a charm. It's now slow to a crawl during any sort of tasks. There was nothing installed or upgraded to this computer that could have caused this. So far this is what I have done to try to correct this problem ... not much but a few things. I ran SMART UTILITY .. and my HD failed the test so I thought for sure this was the culprit. Went out the next day and baught a new 500Gb drive, installed FRESH copy of TIGER on it and prayed. There was no change in speed whatsoever .. it actually seemed even slower than before. The only thing left that I can think of is possibly bad ram or worse a motherboard issue ... but woudnt the computer simly not boot up or give me errors if this was the case?
Please help .. I cant afford to take it to the APPLE store, hoping anyone have any suggestions or think they know what could be the problem here. I payed like $2000 for this 3 years ago and hate to have to throw it on the curb for garbage pickup.I do not know how to test my ram .. what I was going to do was ask around and test it with someone else's ram .. is there a way to check it beacuse I don't know?
The hardrive did show bad sectors but I installed a new one, tested it - all fine but that didnt help the crawl. Also do not know what your asking me or heard of that CD that tests hardware , where would I find this? -

My macbook pro is running very slow, please help!
Mac OS X 10.7.5 Everytime I click on an icon the computer takes about 1-2 minutes to run the command. Checked the activity monitor and nothing seems to be taking up a bunch of memory. This is my first Mac and I am lost at this point. I got rid of my PC beause of problems like this.
Can you tell us how much RAM (Memory) you have? It's listed by clicking on the in your title bar....go to About This Mac and it's in the 1st window.
We would also like to know what size hard drive you have and how much free space is on it.
If you click on your Hard drive icon (should be upper right hand corner of your screen), or the Finder in your Dock...when the window opens it says at the bottom how much Free Space you have on your drive.
If you go to the , click on About This Mac, click on More Info... in that window. The next window says how big your hard drive is under Hardware....click on Serial-ATA.....look under Capacity:
We need to know this cause if a hard drive is too full it slows things down and creates operational difficulties.

Apple Remote Desktop can't possibly run this slow - please help!
Running ARD 3.2 on MacBook Pro 2.4ghz w/ 4GB RAM, trying to access a iMac 2.1ghz w/ 2.5GB RAM via internet connection (DSL speeds). The iMac has ARD 3.2.1.
I have made a flat-color desktop on the iMac, closed out all non-essential programs freeing up RAM on both machines, closed all windows on both machines, matched the screens to Millions of Colors on both machines - and when I connect from the MacBook Pro, it may take 30-40 seconds for the screen to draw, and even longer to open up a folder located on the desktop. Copying small files (500k) takes so long, I gave up after 10 minutes.
ARD can't possible operate this slow, so I am assuming I am missing something here. Any insight would be appreciated!Hi
Typically upstream and downstream speeds for broadband connections disparate. For instance Downstream speeds can sometimes reach 7-8mbps or more. Upstream on the other hand is probably no more than a tenth of that.
How you connect will also have a bearing. Using a wired connection to the local network is going to be better than a wireless one generally speaking.
Unless you have the finances to pay for an SDS Service or a service that offers 1:1 ratio this won't change and you have to put up with it. I reguarly connect remotely and see this most of the time. I select a graphic level that is as low as possible but still allows me to see what is going on. Even then it can be slow.

It was working just fine. I had just downloaded a 130 mb album. A few minutes after my MacBook basically stopped working. I could not open applications or close them. I decided to restart my computer and this did not help. I am able to turn my computer on and off but that is it.
Boot in Safe Mode so you can see how much free space there is on the startup disk.
Startup your Mac in Safe Mode
A Safe Mode boot takes longer than a normal boot so be patient.
Once you are in Safe Mode, click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info > Storage
Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.
If there's less than 15% available disk space, you need to delete files to free up space. You can do that in Safe Mode.
Then click Restart from your Apple menu .

Ipad 4. Running extremely slow - any help out there ?
Hi. My 64gb ipad on 6:1:3 runs sloooow. Sometimes not at all. 3 -4 bars coverage, 11gbit free space, all apps off other than the one selected, history and cache deleted. Email is about half or more speed of that of my iPhone. Safari frequently won't open. Facebook can take 20 minutes. Its like dial up. But if i use the device as wireless hotspot, the linked laptop runs fast. I've reset and reset. Any ideas ? Am I alone on this ? The ipad is 10 mths old.
If the content is purchased from iTunes, you would not be charged for redownloading them (at least not repurchasing them, can't speak for data charges you might incur). Before you restore, Right click on the device in iTunes, and choose transfer purchases. That should copy all of your purchased music to your itunes library, and prevent the need to redownload.

MacBook running extremely slow..why?
Is it because I still have the Snow Leopard and not the Lion?
Downloaded MacKeeper and cleaned the computer but still not responding normally.HI..
You need to remove MacKeeper. It will only cause problems on your Mac.
Follow the instructions here > Uninstalling MacKeeper
Results of an ASC forum search for MacKeeper. Nothing favorable > Community Search: Apple Support Communities
Which Mac OS X you have installed has no bearing on the drive slowing down.
And check to see how much free space there is on the startup disk.
Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure there's a minimum of 15% free disk space.

If you have never done a clean install consider doing one. Backup, clone, setup a USB installer and wipe the system. Or wait for the new internal 500GB drive (so you are back to using about 50%) to do a clean install and run Setup Assistant. You would be surprised how even just that can feel and run.
RAM is pretty much a given so when you do, look at putting a 500GB SSD in there as well. -
