My Mac is very, very slow
Hi there,
Need help. Have MacBook Pro for last 5 years. It has OS X 10.5.8, 2 GB RAM and 4 GB of free cpace on 80 GB HD. Recently it became very slow. I mean REALLY slow. Except for the web page that I can scroll up and down for everything else i see spininning color wheel a lot, actually all the time. I go to save something and scrolling through file list makes sliding stop and I see color wheel. If I open Word to type something or e-mail, letters I typed appear later after s1-3 seconds and so on. I try to keep just a one or two programs opened.
I tried to use Activity Monitor (utilities) and looked at CPU load and memory load and see nothing dramatic there. Low load on CPU and 300-400 MB of free RAM. Disk activity monitor displays peaks even that I am not saving anything at the moment. I really don't know what to look at to recognize a bottleneck in the system.
I must say that my oldest 20" iMac (about 6 years old) slowed dramatically with about same simptoms. My newest 24" iMac is still the fastest of the bunch but it is kind of going in same direction by slowing down. This is typical Windows behaviour and when I started purchasing Macs they promised me that it will never happen.
Regards,
Zack
HI zack- not sure if your problem has been resolved, but I have a MacBook pro with similar specs and experienced a similar issue. I think the issue is not having enough free space on your hard drive. In general you should keep about 10-20% of your drive available for the system to use as virtual RAM. I ended up getting a 500 GB drive to replace my 80. Found instructions on ifixit.com and did it myself. Issue was remedied almost immediately. Hope this helps.

Mac Mini boots very slow with Mavericks (after security update)
Hi,
my Mac Mini boots very slow after I've installed Maveriks. I did two clean installs by now, seemed to work OK after the second one but after the latest safety update (2014-002) the boot time is up to 5+ minutes. Starting Safari or other software takes addtional time. See below for system specs, Etrecheck and log. Any ideas what could cause this? According to the update history I did install the security update 2014-002 twice on the same day although I cannot remember doing such a thing.
Thanks Joerg

HELP - Mac Pro Running Very Slow (After Additional RAM Installed)
I have recently upgraded my Mac Pro (2007) and increased the original memory up to 10 GB 667 MHz DDR2-F8-DIMM.
I also added an optical disk drive as the original would not play some of the newer DVDs/DVRs. Believe me, I'm not much of a do-it-your-selfer, but was encouraged by How-To DVDs on the net on how to install memory and the optical drive.
I am using Mac OS 10.5.8 and the original processor is 2 x 3 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon.
Just when I thought all was well, over the last few weeks my MAC has been getting slower and slower. Now, whenever I re-start or shut down, the Mac can take upwards of 5 minutes to come up. It hangs on the blue screen for what seems to be an eternity. Now whenever I use Safari or Firefox, the rainbow wheel spins and spins and this did not happen much before my "upgrade".
If someone would be kind enough to walk me through or educate me on how/why this is happening, I would be very grateful!
Sincerely,
DonDid you try with just the new RAM? what was it, and you added.... 4 x2GB?
Riser A: 2-2-512-512
Riser B: 2-2-512-512
The ideal balance is symmetrical sets of four.
Clone your system and run Disk Warrior, reformat your fastest drive for system, and restore with SuperDuper. Or try starting over with clean install, would be useful as an emergency and backup, especially as it seems possibly overdue for some maintenance.
Make sure you have 30-40% free on disk drive, and add more if you haven't to separate scratch and data from system.
Run AHT and something like Memtest or Rember. Memtest you can run 40 concurrently each in its own Terminal window makes it go fast for even 5 cycles. -

Mac randomly runs very slow in short bursts..
This is another "My iMac is running slow" question, but after searching extensively online, I couldn't find anyone with a problem quite like mine (or at least a cure for it)
I'll begin by saying Ive recently wiped my Mac clean and only restored my important files like Documents and Music etc. Nothing harmful at least. It worked great for a bit! But after a day or two my Mac started running slow. E.g apps loading up really slow, generally really sluggish and definitely not normal. But its as if these bouts of sluggishness came in short bursts, for about 10 - 15 mins and then it would be fine again.. I've checked the Activity Monitor during these slow periods but nothing seemed to hog CPU or RAM. I've run MemCheck to test the RAM, seemed fine. Ive verified disk, no errors. I just cannot work out whats wrong! Since the wipe I haven't used my Mac any differently from before and I've made sure not to download anything like 'CleanMyMac' software.
System Specs:
iMac 27 inch
Yosemite 10.10.2
i3 3.2Gz Processor
8 Gb RAM
I've tried finding patterns as to when these moments occurs and a few times it tends to start when I opened a new tab in Safari and searched for something, webpages would load very very slow or not at all, and thus the entire Mac would slow with it. So I switched to Chrome.. But it happened again. Could it be internet related? I've got an external HD using TimeMachine to keep things backed up, but I really don't want to restore because I tried that already but the problem came back. Is it something simple like reseting PRAM (whatever that is)?
Hope someone can help!
Cheers!Hope this helps!

Mac is running very slow rainbow wheel is popping up all the time
mac is running very slow rainbow wheel is popping up all the time
This happened to my iMac a few months ago. Back-up your data then RUN, don't walk to your local Apple repair store, your internal hard drive is failing. They were not able to retrieve any data from the original hard drive; the fix was a new hard drive. I was told the hard drives are made to last 2-5 years. Mine was about 3 years. Good luck!

Mac pro run very slow
First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Reset the System Management Controller.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
Otherwise, take the steps below when you notice the slowdown.
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 icon grid.
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. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
Step 2
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. 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.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long. -
Mac Dreamweaver CS6 very slow to open files
Hi
My Mac Dreamweaver CS6 opens html files in about 1-2 minutes! It is very very slow. It all works when the file is open but it is the actual opening that is slow.
I have turned off external files but no change.
Any ideas??
Thanks
Mac Pro
Processor 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Memory 4 GB 800 MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM
Graphics ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256 MB
Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 (11E53)I've been strugling with this issue for a long time.
I've found that Dreamweaver takes about 2 minutes to open CSS files with @import url for font face.
for example:
@import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Oswald:400,300);
i've never had problem with big files but if i place this line into my 20k css file, it takes for ever to load.
if i remove it, it opens fast as usual.
Please don't tell me that it could be a Google problem thatis loading slow because it's not.
the font file isnt big enough either.
Of course i have deativated the "load things from external urls" setting.
any ideas on how could this be fixed withoput changing my work style ? -

Mac OsX 10.6.3
Problem:
Opening FInder Windows and genral activity on the Mac has become incredibly slow. Opening a Finder Window by clicking on the FInder Dock Icon can take anywhere up to 6 seconds, and a ll I see is the spinning beach ball while I wait.
The Mac was running Osx 10.6.8 but I reinstalled the Os from the original install CD's and which meant I downgraded. The Mac worked fine for about two hours and now slow down has started again. I have been trying to update the Os to 10.6.8 but now the Finder keeps freezing, nothing but the beach ball of death.
The computer will operate fine of a USB HD running Lion.
I have Verified/Repaired Permissions
Verified/Repaired the HD - the HD showed no errors according to Disk Utility
Cheked the SMART statued of the HD, and it Verifies okay.
Reinstalled the HD
Created a new User Account
Scanned the computer with ClamXav and found no malitious software
Note this mac has had the Motherboard replaced under warranty twice, the last replacement was in May, the computer has been used for noting except web browsing and email since then.
Coincidentally my friend's Mac of the same vintage and Os is having a very similar problem.
Any pointers?After an hour the back ball came back again. Opening Safari or even a Finder window would cause the Mac to freeze.
I have reased the HD and reinstalled Os 10.6.3 from the original DVD, then updated to 10.6.8. The computer lasted about 4 hours before the same problems came back again.
I tried to install Os 10.7.0 from an Apple Installer USB. The Installer said there was a disk error and couldn't complete the Installation.
I ran disk utilities however it found no problems.
I erased the HD again I reinstalled 10.6.3. and then tried to Install 10.7.0 but received an error massage, "The installation could not be completed, please try again".
I tried to update the Os to 10.6.8 but the update process stalls at about 50% .
The computer now freezes in beachball mode after about one minute of booting.
Next I will try to swap HD's and see if that works. -
Link aggregated between NAS and a switch: the Mac as a very slow access...
Hello,
in my Office we're working with Macs and PCs and all the data is on a NAS.
Here is our configuration:
NAS <-link1->Switch<-Link2->Macs or PC.
Macs are connected with AFP protocol (because SMB is very slow).
We want to use Link Aggregation between the NAS and the switch (with 802.3ad procotol) but when we do that all the Macs have a very slow access to the NAS. But all is OK with the PCs.
What can we do? Is there a problem with macOS X and link aggregation?
Thank you for your help.
NicolasSorry, not sure what the question is exactly.
You must have an Xserve, or Ethernet cards capable of Jumbo Frames for one, I assume the Switch & NAS are capable?
Possible clues...

my mac startup is very slow, it goes white for long before showing user account, how do i cure this illness?
1) System Preferences > Startup Disk ...
to set your correct Stratup Disk AND
2) Run one pass of Disk Utility "Repair Disk" from another source such as by booting to Recovery_HD OR
Restart in Safe Mode (which does the "Repair Disk" as it starts up). -
Mail has become very, very slow. Do I have a provider problem or is there something I can do with my Mac?
Couple of steps. One is general housekeeping and the other is performance related.
If you have an extremely large number of messages in your inbox(es) or sent categories, consider the ones that remain relevant and purge those that are not. Do this regularly. Choose the Mailbox > Erase Deleted Items > In All Accounts...
Afterwards, you can start by rebuilding your Mailbox indexes within your individual mail accounts. For each Account in the left panel of Mail under Inbox, select it, and then from Mailbox menu, choose Rebuild (bottom of menu). When you are done, exit and restart Mail.
Still slow? -
My mac is running very slow. what can i do to find out what's wrong?
Hi! My mac is running very slow! What can I do to check what's wrong?
How much RAM is installed?
How full is your Mac's hard drive?
Do you run any antivirus software on your Mac? Antivirus software can slow down the normal operation of OS X.
Do you run any "crapware" like Mackeeper or any other type of "crapware" like so called hard drive "cleaning" apps? -
Driector 10.1 Mac: trace & debug VERY slow
I am tracing and debugging a lingo script, with various
variables etc, totalling around 2 MB of data.
Breakpoints, debugging, stepping through scripts, etc, is
VERY VERY slow. Up to 20-40 second wait per step or breakpoint (I
guess for vars to format in the debugger window).
Is Dir 11 any faster? I've been looking for a Real reason to
upgrade...
Thanks
William1) I've had no problems with data or code for a couple of
years now. I upgraded to v10.1 a year ago. I had to because v9 did
not work in OSX 10.4.x
2) This error in the data is of some new type. So my code is
not handling the weird data correctly. Tracing is the best way, but
way too slow.
I have now isolated the problem; it was due to a new version
of Filemaker Pro inserted a new "special" char in some fields. My
code has been corrected now and runs fine in Dir 10.1.
In Dir 11.0 there are HUNDREDS of new errors in all our Dir
programs and projects.
And Dir 11 is Fantastically SLOW ! Slloooooooow!
Stupid Dir 11 - there's NO way I'm wasting time changing MANY
programs and projects just to do Arrogant Adobe's work for them.
Idiots. Didn't they test this stuff? How can they sell this carp?
3) I have Javascript that already handles 3 times this much
data, but the date is organized first into packets.
4) Yes, we will eventually have to rewrite all 3,000 lines of
code. And not just in this program, but in 4-5 other programs as
well.
We originally wrote these in Director due to the debugger and
the fact that I am an expert in Lingo for over ten years.
We'll stick with Dir 10.1 for a year or two, even if we have
to use an old Mac that's never updated or whatever.
Eventually, we'll have to ditch Adobe Director. Thank god we
never really buried ourselves in that other Macromedia MESS, Flash.
Macromedia & Adobe NEVER had any "authoring language"
programmers with any real "long term, coherent" design skill, they
are just hacky hacky hackers, forever adding new features with no
concept of any users but themselves.
What a mess.
(Oh, and Batch processing in Photoshop is a laughable mess as
well. Jeez.)
