  • Mac desktop running incredibly slow.

    Hi I have a 2010 Imac which is running incredibly slow!
    3.06 GHz processor, 4GB memory running OS X Yosemite
    I was hoping someone could please help me get to the bottom of what is wrong with it - i did wonder does it need a new hard drive? The original hard drive was replaced by Apple under warranty in summer 2013.
    It was running really slow and then last week I upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.3 which seemed to give it a new lease of life. however yesterday there was a power cut and since I have restarted it it is taking forever to do the smallest task. It takes about a minute to open up mail and then you have to wait around 30 secs to see the messages, then wait even longer to click and write.
    Having looked up common faults I have tried looking at the utilities section but there is nothing showing a high percentage and I really don't know what else to do?
    I have done an Etrecheck as recommended by support and have attached it below:
    Can anyone advise why it is going so slow and what do all the red bits on the etre check results actually mean?
    Many Thanks
    Catriona

    If you haven't already done so, try this simple step first. Probably there will be no change. In that case, see below.
    When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, 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.
    When you post the log extract, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "The message contains invalid characters." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the text on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.

  • My mac book pro very slow after update to Yosemite

    hi. my mac book very slow after I upgrade to Yosemite. Is anyone like me? How should I do?

    Yes, many are like you. Most of them have incompatible or poorly written software or not enough ram though. Download and run EtreCheck http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck and post its result here so that we may get a look at your aystem.

  • I have recently downloaded osx lion on my mac and now it is running incredibly slow? Does anyone have any suggestions

    I have recently downloaded OSX Mountain Lion and my computer is running considerably slower? Anyone have any suggestions?

    It will run slow for a few hours as the new install will index your entire hard disk(s), as well as do a complete Time Machine backup if you're using that. Click on the Spotlight icon on the top right of your screen. Is there a progress bar that says its indexing (and if you're using Time Machine, is the TM icon in the menubar spinning)? If so, just wait for those to complete and things should be back to normal.
    Also be sure to run Software Update and manually update any 3rd party apps, many of which may not work correctly under Mountain Lion and could cause slowdowns.
    Other common causes and solutions of slow running can be found here:

  • Hi all, My external hard drive does not show up on my MacBook Pro again. I've tried connecting it to another Mac desktop as well but doesn't work either. any suggestions on how to fix this?

    Hi all, my external hardrive is no longer being recognized on my Macbook pro after I tried to transfer some documents from another Macbook( that used the Lion operating system) to mine. i'm currently using the Mac OS X 10.6.8. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    I suspect the drive got disconnected, somehow, on that other system and corrupted the drive because of the Disconnection.
    Connect it to your system and open Disk Utility and see if the drive is even being seen. If it is all the data on is more then likely lost and it will need to be repartitioned and or just erased and reformatted.

  • My mac mini is incredibly slow, but I have plenty of memory available.  Why?

    Why?My mac mini is incredibly slow, but I have plenty of memory available. My machine has 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5 processor and 2GB 1333 MHz DDR3 for Memory.  Any idea what I can do?

    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.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take an action that isn't working the way you expect. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them 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 which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.

  • My macbook is running slow after upgrading to yosemite

    Other's have posted similar experiences by when I ran etrecheck I didn't get a bunch of fails and yet my computer is extremely sluggish since moving from snow leopard to Yosemite.  So much so, that I'm considering going back.  Programs load slowly and switching between programs has a delayed response. Reminds me of the PC I had before I bought my macbook in 2008.
    Any ideas on what might be causing the slow down?

    LR 5.6 on Mac desktop all of a sudden will not read any card from any reader but will work on my laptop. I can work on previous images but not import new ones. Even if I create a catalog on laptop and import to my desktop on a thumb drive, the images are only accessible as long as the thumb drive is inserted.

    Sounds like you may need to repair the Disk Permissions on your drive where your images are stored.

  • My 6-year-old iMac is painfully slow after I installed Mavericks, despite increasing ram to 4 GB.  Any help out there?.

    My 6 year old iMac is painfully slow after I installed Mavericks, despite upgrading to 4 GB of Ram.  Everything stops and I see the spinning beachball way too frequently.  Any suggestions or solutions?

    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. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    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. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
