My macbook pro is very slowly why this could be?

hi, somebody can help me and say to me why my macbook pro could be so slowly?

There are numerous different ones.  Backup your data if you want to isolate all the possible reasons.
Depending on what is slow:
1. The hard drive may be close to capacity.  85% is the maximum most Macs can run at without exceeding it.
2. It may have insufficient RAM.
3. It may have a damaged directory.
4. Your use of so-called maintenance tools may actually be corrupting system caches.  Onyx, and Macaroni are all tools that should only be
used by experts who know when they should be used if at all.  MacKeeper shouldn't be used at all.
5. You have a dying hard drive.
6. You have a router not compatible with your operating system.
7. You have a peripheral not compatible with your operating system.
8. You have a firewall that isn't routing internet traffic properly.
9. You have some incompatible software.
So tell us when you are backed up, and what is slowing down, and maybe we can help you isolate the problem.

  • MacBook Pro running very slowly - please see EtreCheck report

    My MacBook Pro (mid 2012 model) has become very slow and unresponsive recently. Pretty much any click or command I make there is a delay, and often the coloured spinning wheel appears for a few seconds until it executes the command. Very frustrating. I know this is a popular question, but I've pasted my EtreCheck report below, s others have done. Any tips on what I should do would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

  • Macbook Pro running very slowly, randomly shutting off and overheating. No idea what the problem is! Please help!

    I got macbook pro about a year and a half ago and up until now it has been running fine.
    However, in the last few days, it has been started to run tediously slowly!
    It wont allow me to open applications and i have to force quit out of any applications I finally manage to have because they freeze or stop responding.
    On Google Chrome, pages become unresponsive every few minutes.
    Even writing this post took more than 20 minutes as the laptop kept freezing and the webpage became unresponsive.
    It also randomly shuts off and when it restarts, a message comes up saying my Macbook was restarted because of an error.
    I haven't downloaded or updated anything that I know of recently that would have caused this.
    Ive been reading through some of the fourms on this and I thought it'd be helpfull to post some of the information you may need to help me solve this problem!
    Id be very gratefull if any of you could help! Thanks!

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • Macbook Pro Running Very Slowly

    Lately, my Macbook Pro has been running very slowly. The rainbow wheel keeps popping up and it takes a very long time to open windows or quit applications. Also, the computer gets really slowly even if only a few applications are open (e.g. Microsoft Word and iTunes). This problem has started recently, a few months after installing OSX 10.9.5. I don't know if this is the problem, if the hard drive needs to be cleared, some programs are taking up too much RAM, or if the computer is just getting old. Any help would be appreciated, and I have included the EtreCheck below as well.

  • MacBook Pro running very slowly. Please help.

    Since I upgraded to OSX 10.8.2, my computer has been running very slowly--painfully slow in some instances. I have 4GB memory, 2.4/2.2 Ghz Intel processor, 500 GB harddrive (184.64 GB free). I purchased Snow Leopard as a downloadable upgrade from the app store, so I do not have any disks. Any suggestions? Thanks! (Please be very specific as I can follow instructions, but am not a tech wiz.)

    You mean to say you upgraded from 10.6 Snow Leopard to 10.8 Mountain Lion via the AppStore.
    10.6 isn't available from Apple as a downloadable option, only via disks.
    so I do not have any disks.
    10.8 has a bootable partition on the boot drive that acts like a boot disk.
    Please be very specific as I can follow instructions, but am not a tech wiz.
    Well you can try reading these  links first, then decide if you want to handle it or allow a local professional to speed up your system. (Apple won't)
    Some Mac's shouldn't even be upgraded to 10.7 or 10.8, despite what Apple says as it slows them down too much (and drives a premature hardware upgrade )
    Why is my computer slow?

  • Shut my MacBook Pro lid very hard, will this somehow affect my computer?

    I started dropping my MBP and as it was falling I tried catching it mid air and ended up slamming it closed. It made such a loud sound and now I think something is wrong with it. Is there any coushining that could prevent serious damage? Thanks.

    When a MacBook Pro is moved Sudden Motion Sensor will kick in and hard drive will be protected.
    There are magnets in the lid and the computer to keep it closed tight.
    Whenever you close the lid, a low level "thud" sound is heard.
    Is the computer performing normally?
    Is the display functioning properly?
    Can you use the optical drive?
    Best.

  • Macbook pro running very slowly when the energy cable is unplugged?

    Hey Guys.
    My laptop has this exact same problem. I got it in March 2012, and it was working perfectly fine both on power and on the battery.
    I'm trying to apply this solution, but I'm stuck on step 3, because my Extensions folder is empty. There are no files at all in there. My Pathway was Macintosh HD/Library/Extensions/ please advice if this is the right folder.
    Thanks in advance.
    Oh and I ran a hardware test and it said everything was fine.

    I don't know anything about this problem, but from your post you're not in the same place as the thread you were looking at. It's System/Library/Extensions

    Hey greytdogs,
    I would give some of the suggestions in this link a shot:

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities!

  • I left my macbook pro closed and when I came back the screen had a huge crack all over the screen, anyone know why this could have happened?

    I left my macbook pro closed and when I came back the screen had a huge crack all over the screen, anyone know why this could have happened?

    Someone dropped something onto your computer.
    Someone pressed on the closed computer.
    Someone placed heavy objects on your computer.
    We can only guess since the someone was not us and we were not there when it happened.

  • My MacBook Pro is Very Slow

    My MacBook Pro system is operating very slowly. Apps take quite a while to open (oftentimes 2-3 minutes or longer) and navigating through my documents is cumbersome. I get the spinning wheel while I'm searching for a document. The machine appears to be running most of the time, as if something is going on in the background. Thanks for any help that anyone can provide. I only open the apps that I need at the time.
    Here is my EtreCheck report. Hopefully it has info that could help:

    I’ve tried running 10.10 on quite a few different computers with 4GB of RAM and a standard mechanical hard drive and all of them performed worse with Yosemite than they did with Mavericks (10.9). And about a year ago I found that they performed better with Mt Lion (10.8) than Mavericks. Each version of the Mac OS has required more memory than the version that came before it and that means that every couple of years the minimum acceptable RAM is increased. Apple signaled this quietly at the Apple Store - only one computer now ships with 4GB of RAM. (And I can tell you from personal experience that in that configuration it is not fun to use.)
    Bottom line: you need at least 8GB of RAM or an SSD. Both are better. In the meantime run as lean a machine as possible. MacKeeper is a waste of money no matter what anyone might tell you. At best it is not necessary and is a waste of money.

  • My MacBook Pro gets very slow while doing  work like watching movies and using net .. video gets lag very often

    My MacBook Pro gets very slow while doing  work like watching movies and using net .. video gets lag very often and while surffing on net it gets 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.
    Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
    Otherwise, take the steps below 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 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.

Maybe you are looking for
