MBP extremely slow after upgrading to Lion. Help please.

Hello,
I'm using a MacBook Pro and just loved it while it was still on Snow Leopard. I upgraded to Lion a month ago and thought the reason for my MBP delay in EVERYTHING was because it was still indexing all the files or getting used to the new OS. However, after a month, when I turn my computer on it takes 5-9 minutes with the loading page of Apple.
It takes another 5-8 minutes for it to normally function after logging in but it isn't consistent though. I really need help over here guys.
My line of work requires a fast notebook and quite honestly, I'm very disappointed with the new os.
Thank you in advance,
Yano

If it is a new installation, spotlight can take forever to do the first indexing. I put my Sleep option in Power preferences to "never" (On mains power that is) and leave the computer lid open / on all night.
There are also other things going on, like, software updates,(both from Apple and third party), maintenance scripts (that run on schedule at night), Backup, iDisk and iCloud syncs (the first uploads can be large), etc.
Once the initial cludge is cleared things get much better. But get that RAM upgrade. Crucial delivered mine within 24 hours of ordering 
You'll need a very small screwdriver!

  • IPhoto is extremely slow after upgrading to OSX Maveric

    Has anyone noticed that iPhoto is extremely slow after upgrading to OSX Maverick

    I've noticed that it isn't.
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • I have an early 2008 macbook pro that is running slow after upgrading to lion. Is there anything I can do? this is what I have,Processor  2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, Memory  2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM.

    I have an early 2008 macbook pro that is running slow after upgrading to lion. Is there anything I can do? this is what I have,Processor  2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, Memory  2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM.

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive may be failing.
    Launch the usual set of applications you use when you notice the problem.
    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 page that opens.
    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. What approximate values are shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec?
    Step 2
    You must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way as above. 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.
    Post the 50 or so most recent messages in the log — the text, please, not a screenshot.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out before posting.

  • ICal event have disappeared after upgrading to Lion. Please help!

    After upgrading to Lion, pre-existed calendar events (Newer ones) have disappeared. How can I recover?

    Greetings Alex,
    If you have a backup of your computer from before you upgraded then you can restore the data from your backup: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1553
    --- Let us know if you have a backup and if so, what type it is and we can tell you how to restore your calendars.
    --- If you don't have a backup, consider starting one following the article above ASAP.  Anyone with information they care about on their computer should have a backup.  It is a hard lesson that every computer user learns at least once.
    If you do not have a backup from before you upgraded:
    1. Make an iCal backup so you don't lose what you have currently:  Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
    2. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
    3. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove all files and folders that start with this phrase)
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove all files and folders that start with this phrase.)
    ---NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
    ---NOTE: To get to "Home > Library" in Lion:
    4. Open iCal and see if the events you are looking for magically reappear.
    If the events don't appear and you don't have a backup or have the events on another device like an iPhone or iPad then your only other option would be to use data recovery software or a data recovery company to try to get the data back (although it might be easier to just re-create the data as best you can).
    Data Recovery software examples:
    http://www.prosofteng.com/products/data_rescue.php
    http://www.macintosh-data-recovery.com/
    http://www.subrosasoft.com/OSXSoftware/index.php?main_page=product_info&products _id=1
    You can contact a local Apple Authorized Provider to see if they offer data recovery services: http://www.apple.com/buy/locator/service/
    There are many nationwide / worldwide data recovery companies out there.  Here are a few examples:
    http://www.ontrackdatarecovery.com
    http://www.drivesaversdatarecovery.com/
    http://www.totalrecall.com/
    Hope that helps and best of luck to you.

  • My iMac is running extremely slow after upgrading to mountain lion

    Ever since upgrading my OS, my computer is running extremely slow. Any tips to improve performance?

    How much RAM is your system running? Do a Disk Repair and see if that resolves any issues.

  • Mountain lion and time capsule. Extremely slow after upgrade...

    After upgrading to the new system, I was trying to copy my iphoto library to my timecapsule, but at this rate, it will be completed within 20 hours... And I´m only transferring 11 gb... I also checked my connection speed to the timecapsule and it´s at 450mb... So, why is it going to take 20 hours??? This is an issue that needs to be adressed... I have the brand new Timecapsule. It´s also not doing a backup while I´m transferring...
    Hoping this will be resolved immedately...

    I noticed that Time Machine erased all of my previous backups and started fresh.  I woudl be willing to bet that the sluggishness you expereinced was because Time Machine was making a full backup.  It proably became more quick once it finished this since it could perform incremental backups thereafter.

  • Late 2007 15" MBP Very slow after upgrading to Mavericks

    Hi guys,
    this is my first post here. I look forward to learn and help others.
    The reason of this post is, as outlined in the title, slow paerformance of my computer after upgrading to Mavericks. It was kinda slow from before but this time it's almost unbearable to use it. I used to be able to run VMWare with 2 XP and 1 windows server machines WITH JUST 2 GB OF RAM! Now I have 4 GB and can barely run a single virtual machine with XP and the cooling fans come on just by watching a video on youtube, which also makes performance take a dump.

    I understand it says my RAM is way too low, but hve no idea what's killing it. So far I've disabled and uninstalled all DynDNS items. I just read about Chrome's slow performance for MBP's and plan to switch back to Safari (Firefox made my computer even slower).
    Thanks in advance for any light shed on this.
    Oscar.

    Thank you Kappy, while I was reviewing the log from EtreCheck I noticed the 3rd party preference panes, launchers and daemos. I deleted a few of them and it really helped with system performance.

    I was reading about GeekBench in the discusions and decided to give it a go, although I was able to only perform the 32-bit tests, I got 1268 on the single-core score and 2187 for the multi-core score; I don't know how good or bad those numbers are. Wish I had a before and after reading but I read about it too late, when I had already erased several items.
    I will appreciate any further input BEFORE I decide to reinstall the OS from scratch.

  • IPhone6 extremely slow after upgrade to iOS 8.2

    I just upgrade my iPhone6 to iOS 8.2(apple watch). After the upgrade the phone is lagging and is extremely slow. Just writing a text is a problem waiting in-between inputs.
    Has anyone else had issues with speed and use their iPhone6 after the upgrade?

    I have not had a problem with speed. Sometimes a laggy iPhone can be the result of memory fragmentation in RAM (not in storage). It shouldn't happen, because iOS is generally very good about managing memory, but occasionally it needs to be helped. Try the following:
    Press HOME once, then double-press it to bring up the Quick Launch screen
    Kill each app you see by flicking its screen image up. Continue until all apps except the Home screen are closed
    Press HOME once, and wait about 2 minutes for all apps to finish shutting down
    Turn the phone off by holding the SLEEP button until Slide to power off appears, and do so
    Wait another minute for it to finish the shutdown
    Turn the phone back on by holding the SLEEP button until an Apple logo appears.
    Let us know if this helps.

  • Safari 6 running extremely slow after getting Mountain Lion

    So after getting OS X Mountain Lion and Safari 6, my safari has been running extremely slow. I've seen that a lot of people are having trouble with it crashing or stopping which I have not experienced. So far, I've tried: emptying the cache, disabling plug ins, turned off extensions, and reset safari. All of these have helped but it is still running pretty slow.
    Does anyone have any other suggestions?

    If you have anti virus software installed, disable that then try Safari.
    If you don't have a/v software installed, try Safari in another user account. If it's slow there, that's an indication the startup disk may need repairing.
    If that is the case, that requires >  Mountain Lion Recovery

  • Wifi is extremely slow after upgrading to Yosemite

    After upgrading to Yosemite, i have extremely slow connection on Wifi and also Ethernet connecting to the internet. Had no problems with Mavericks and also my other wifi devices.
    Have tried deleting my network configuration and starting again and also have deleted my System Configuration folder with no success
    can anyone help??

    Finally found the solution. Apparently it is as I have guessed. The fault lies with the latest HTML 5 player added with safari instead of flash player to save battery.
    The problem was solved by selection Safari 7.1 from developer option !!

  • MacBook pro extremely slow after upgrade to Yosemite

    after upgrade of MacBook pro to Yosemite everything runs extremely slow. Apps Internet everything. Any fixes for this?  I read email chains back from October.  Anything more current? 

    When you have the problem, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.  
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    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, 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 and start typing the name.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above.
    Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first.
    Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of it useless for solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • Webtool extremely slow after upgrade to OEL 5.8

    Running OSB 10.3.0.2.0 on OEL 5.8 64 bit. The original install was on OEL 5.3, but after upgrading to 5.8 the webtool is very slow on any browser (IE, Firefox, Chrome). Each page load takes about 40-50 seconds. Has anyone else experienced this or is this possibly a known issue?
    Thank you.

    I'd suggest you upgrade to OSB10.4.0.1.0 release.
    Webtool taking ages is probably related to some other OS issue, check /var/log/messages and whatever and check your DNS settings are all correct.
    What about obtool commands, are they also slow?
    Thanks

  • Is anyone else's computer running very slow after upgrading to Lion?

    I just upgraded to Lion-- had no problems with speed before, now websites take forever to load-- anyone else encounter this??  Any fixes??

    Check Activity Monitor and sort by %CPU to see if any processes are hogging memory.
    If mds and mdshelper are hard at work, that's Spotlight indexing, and after a few hours things should speed-up.
    Also try Safari->Reset Safari
