MacbookPro started running really slow. Please help...
I tried some random cleanups with no results. Here is my EtreCheck report:

Thank you!
1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can read it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal 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 Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

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:

My MacBook Air just started running really slow
I have a MacBook Air and Safari started running really slow and I'm not sure why. I'm not very tech savy, so I'm having a hard time figuring out what's going on.
Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. Any change?
Select the Advanced tab in the Preferences window and uncheck the box marked
Stop plug-ins to save power
Any change?
Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
Log out and log back in. Any change?
Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test. Any change?
If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
Again, if only Safari is involved, open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Safari, if it's checked. Any change?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference? -
My MacBook is almost two years old and has started running really slow. It gets bogged down when it is running different programs at the same time, like Safari and Pages. It didn't react this way until recently. Any advice would be very welcome.
Launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive (the drive itself, not the volume icons below it.) Is the SMART status "Verified?" If not, replace the drive immediately. If the status is "Verified," the drive may still be failing. Back up all data, if you haven't already done so. Reinstall Mac OS X, then run Software Update. Test with all wired peripherals disconnected. If it's still slow, you have a hardware problem.

My Macbook Pro started running really slow
This week my Macbook Pro started running super slow, taking ages to open programs and giving me the color wheel alllll the time. I've never had problems like this before! I'm not running many applications or doing anything unusual but it's just running extra slow. Once or twice it has also totally gone to sleep while I was in the middle of using it, and I had to wake it back up. It has also been getting really hot and the battery life seems worse...! This is all new, I'm using my computer just as I always have but it suddenly has issues.
The only thing it has been doing for a while is sometimes the screen will go blue - this either corrects itself within a few seconds or if I close my Macbook and then reopen it, the screen is back to normal. This is very rare though and I don't know if it's related to the slowness problem.
What can I do to fix this??

Apple also recommends that you deauthorize a device in the iTunes Store before having it serviced.

My Macbook has started running really slow, help!
Hello, my Macbook has started to run at a far slower pace than usual. I have had my macbook since December of 2010 and for the past few weeks I have noticed that the rainbow wheel would appear when I would try to do even the most simplest of things (i.g. open Microsoft Word). Using the terminal's top command I would notice that the fc-cache would use a high percent of the system. However that ceased using the command "fc-cache -f -r -v", and it seemed as if the font fc-cache stopped. However that did not stop the problem.
I then decided to run a EtreCheck run and the following came out:

If someone could please help that would be amazing.
Thank you very much!I'll take a wild guess that the most noticeable slowdown began after you installed OS X Mavericks.
1. You have plenty of hard disk space, 205GB available of 250GB, but you have only 2GB system RAM installed. 2GB RAM was adequate for acceptable performance using OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.
Technically, Apple specs say that OS X 10.9 Mavericks REQUIRES just 2GB RAM, but realistically, 2GB is not nearly enough to run it with decent performance, especially if you run both a browser and other application programs simultaneously. Your system can hold a maximum of 16GB RAM. Upgrading to 4GB RAM would absolutely help performance. Upgrading to 8GB might provide additional performance with OS X Mavericks. I won't speculate on the benefits of 16GB.
Disclaimer: I use OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion as my primary operating system, about 8 hours every day. I run Mavericks once a week or less for a couple of hours, and for only one application, so my experience with Mavericks is limited, and your use is likely considerably different. I use OS X Mavericks to run Windows 7 using Parallels 9, in order to use my licensed copy of Windows MS-Office 2011. I didn't like Windows 7 performance with Parallels 9 running in Mavericks with just 4GB installed on my mid-2011 2.5Ghz iMac, so I upgraded to 8GB.
Macs are notoriously picky about system RAM, and not all RAM vendors are the same when it comes to Mac. I recommend purchasing your Mac RAM upgrade from Apple, Crucial.com, or Other World Computing http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3_Whi te
Depending upon where you purchase the RAM and whether you are confident to install it yourself, a 4GB RAM upgrade will likely cost well under US$100. 8GB would likely cost around $100. Your Mac can use up to 16GB, at a cost over $200. Before spending any money to upgrade an older computer, always consider how much you're willing to spend on a 4-year-old computer, versus saving that money, if you have plans to purchase a new(er) Mac in the near future.
Recent generations of Mac computers seem to be highly reliable. My son has a mid-2009 aluminum MacBook Pro that easily survived 4 years of college and is still going strong. We just recently upgraded his system to 8GB RAM so he can try out Mavericks on a spare external drive before he decides whether or not to upgrade.
2. You're running Google Chrome browser. I don't use it based on advice in several discussion threads within Apple Support Communities from users who are far more knowledgable that I am about such things. They say the Chrome browser does not use RAM very efficiently, and that Firefox and Safari are better.
3. You haven't rebooted your computer in 34 days. With such limited RAM, until you upgrade, rebooting the computer at least every few days could increase performance a little bit. Some programs, particularly web browsers, often take huge amounts of available RAM and open dozens or even hundreds of links, then don't release RAM properly when you close browser windows. -
SQL Query running really slow, any help in improving will be Great!
Hi,
I am really new to this performance tuning and optimization techniques. Explain plan also, I only have theoretical knowledge, no clues on how to find out the real issue which is making the query slow..So if anyone can give me a good direction on where to start even, it will be great..
Now, my issue is, I have a query which runs really really slow. If I run this query for a small subset of data, it runs fast(Its flying, actually..) but if I give the same query for everything(Full required data), its running for ages..(Actually it is running for 2 days now and still running.)
I am pasting my query here, the output shows that the query stucks after "Table created"
SQL> @routinginfo
Table dropped.
Table created.
Please please help!
I also ran explain plan for this query and there are a number of rows in the plan_table now..
SORRY!IS there a way to insert a file here, as I want to attach my explain plan also?

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.

I Have an ipad 2 and it has started running really slow. Is there something I can do to fix this
PPlease helpYou may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
Your router may not have given your iPad a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPad (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.
