My mac computer got slow.

Hi there,
friends have a problem with my mac, it happened when you download the "MacTubes" install, I set down my video, but either surprise that this does not begin downloading until there all goes well, and I started to find out why the video did not go down if you already had the program when a forum I found someone with the same problem and recommended installing Adove FLASH PLAYER 14, a not download version OS X 10.9, run me MacTubes because download the video, but there began to be slow on my mac trackpad functions using the expose - pass the pagination mission control throughout. I think it was more for the adobe flash mactube program, but now I know how to fix my mac. and delete both. but this has changed.
if anyone can help I'd appreciate it.

About to purchase my very first MAC computer, got a few quick ?'s...

ok I think I'm about to buy the 24" iMac... Except I have never even seen a MAC computer in my life! I have only experienced windows computers...
Anything important I need to know before my purchase?
Also is there a new designed iMac coming out soon? I saw new laptops and other things released on apple store.com
And finally this may be re dumbest question ever but where is the CD/DVD drive located? Is evrything included into the flat screen? I mean there is no tower or anything....
Please help before I screw up and drop $2000 on something I am clueless about... There is no apple store within hundreds of miles, so you are my only source....
Thanks!

Hello iturn,
I presume you've looked at Apple's website to get the info you have on the 24" iMac, but if not, here it is.
http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_mac/family/imac?mco=MTE3MDM
Click on the tabs in the included software section to see what comes with it.
All the hardware you should need is included . . . and yes the CD-DVD reader-burner super drive is located on the right side of the screen. There is no tower or anything else other than the keyboard and mouse. In that respect it's a lot like a desktop mounted laptop only much bigger.
You're choice of the 24" model is, IMHO the best choice of the available models. The screen is brilliant and is a beauty. Also, somewhere on that Apple site is a section to help people who are switching from windows, so you should look for it and check it over. And on Amazon you can find a book by David Pogue called Switching: the Missing Manual or something like that.
Yes, before you drop $2000 on a totally new computer system you definitely should research it out to see that it fits your needs. And you really ought to see one of these Macs in person and play around with it a little. It's likely to blow your mind a bit, but that's the way to see if it's the computer for you. Surely there's someone in your area that has one. If not a weekend drive to the nearest Apple store is surely worthwhile for you.
As for a possible new design coming out soon, no one here knows that, nor are we allowed to speculate here about it. Again my best advice is to find a way to get a look at one before you order it.
Hope this helps and I hope you'll join us soon with one of these gorgeous machines.

Why is my mac's battery life decreased and got slower after upgrading to lion?

Thank you for helping,
I am using MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2010) and beginning of this summer I upgraded it from snow leopard to lion (from apple store). After installation my mac got slower,it consumes the battery very rapidly and starting time increased. I searched the reason on the net and this time I did a clean installation. I but the problem insisted. last week i updated to 10.7.5. this time i see that coloured spinning wheel even i logging in. I did all the updates and battery calibration as mentioned in apple support communities but nothing have changed. I don't use any grafic programs etc. I only use safari, firefox, iphoto, iwork and microsoft office for mac. My english and my computer knowledge is not very good. So, if you answer my problem please will you explain as much as simple.
Thanks anyway.

A couple of things...
...first, you might want to make certain that your internal drive is selected as the Startup Disk under System Preferences. If it's not, this can sometimes lead to a problem of your MBP 'searching' for a boot drive at startup. Second, you might want to read ds store's article - Why is my computer slow? A very handy reference guide with some good tips.
As to your decrease in battery life - that has been reported by some users as a problem with both Lion and Mountain Lion. See the "More Like This" to the right of this page.
Can't offer any real solutions - read Mr. store's article and see if you can find anything that helps. You might also want to download the free "Battery Health" from the App Store and keep an eye on your battery when you're using it.

Copy the music from Nano to computer by:

Then just sync to the new device

I have a 4 yr. old iMac. I recently got a trojan on it that sent out emails to my address book. I got Norton Internet Security for Mac, and now my Mac is running slow, with way too many spinning beach balls of death. Was it a mistake to install Norton?

There is no such Trojan or other malware known today that will do that using OS X nor has there ever been one. The most probable explanation is that somebody hacked into your e-mail account on the server, so you should change that password to something stronger right away. If it had come from your Mac then there would almost certainly be copies of those messages in your Sent Mail mailbox.

After change to Mavericks my Mac become too slow e I can't use it because stays asking passwords for "talagent" and "messages agent" as icloud keys. I got changed the icloud password many times and still doesn't work. I can't open any program.

☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.

HT1338 new Apple I bought a Mac Pro, since I got it keeps crashing....all the time!!! It is my first Mac computer and it is horrible!!!!

I bought a new Apple I bought a Mac Pro Retina screen, since I got it keeps crashing ALL the time!!! This is my first Mac computer and I am hating it!!! I assume I can take down to the any store and they will replace it??

I have a similar problem, my MBP Retina 15" 6 weeks old crashes and locks-up all the time with just about every application. I now have gone back to using my old MS XP system, it is much more stable than Mountain Lion OS and Apple hardware. I use Window-7 at work for last 6 months, not a single crash and/or lock-up. I'm looking at returning/selling my MBP and getting a Window-8 system, Apple is now building crap hardware and software. I recommend you consider the same solution. Good Luck !

Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
Open Network Utility in Applications>Utilities>Info tab, select Airport/Wifi & what is the Link Speed & are there any Errors/Collisions on the right?

Hello, I'm pretty sure my fan on my 2009 mac book pro has stopped running. Would this cause the computer to slow down and take for ever to boot up and show the color wheel every time I select an application ?

Not directly, but if the CPU overheats because of incompatible software, that would cause slowdowns. Do not allow the computer to run if the fan is not working unless you wish to fry your motherboard. Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

What is iCloud, and did you ask Apple about their "I" product? (The Cloud is not iCloud, whatever that may be)

Hi Guys I have asked to transfere my creative suite from windows to mac, no problem, I got the serial number, but I have a windows installation disc how to I get the mac version on my mac computer?

HI Guys I have recently asked to transfer my Windows creative suite to a Mac computer. I received the serial number but unlike my lightroom install disc, which is win and mac, my Creative Suite disc is windows only, how do I go about installing a Mac version of my creative suite onto the Mac computer?

I am talking about the Ver 3 download link that came with the purchase email.
That link is no longer available. Use "Migration Assistant" to copy your Applications from your old mac to the new Mac, then immediately run software update. Aperture Version 3.2 will not run on your new mac with Mavericks, you will have to Upgrade to version 3.4.5 at least - you can download this update from the Support page: Aperture 3.4.5
Then launch Aperture and enter your registration key and try now too update from version 3.4.5 to 3.5 from the AppStore. The AppStore will change your Aperture registration to an AppStore version, so you will able to reinstall by downloading from the AppSTore in future.
If you want transfer only Aperture and no other applications, do it manually: You will have to copy not only the application but folders from the libraries as well:
/Applications/Aperture.app
/Library/Application Support/Aperture/
~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/

Please help my mac is so slow coming up and going to different places. the flower keeps coming up all the time.

Please help my mac is so slow coming up and going to different places. the flower keeps coming up all the time?????

I'm having this problem but only online. I've confirmed that it is the computer (2007 MacBook), and it only happens when I'm using wi-fi connection. My other MacBook (2010) is connecting with wi-fi fine, and when I plug this MacBook into the ethernet connection it is also doing fine. I've re-started, check the memory, deleted cookies, histories, gone as far as uninstalling and re-installing browswers. Used the System Preferences network diagnostics and got an "all good". Ideas appreciated.

My mac computer got slow.
