Answer 1

Hello,
FIrst,
You have some very undesirable " garbageware" on your system.
Zeobit MacKeeper and TuneUpMyMac. Get rid of them per these links!!!

Second,
Remove/delete all WD drive software. It is not needed on OS X and can actually harm your hard drives if used with OS X's own drive utilities.
Remove the WD drive app fron your login/startup items.
Add or remove automatic items
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Users & Groups.
Select your user account, then click Login Items.
Do one of the following:
Click Add below the list on the right, select an app, document, folder, or disk, then click Add.If you don’t want an item’s windows to be visible after login, select Hide. (Hide does not apply to servers, which always appear in the Finder after login.)
Select the name of the item you want to prevent from opening automatically, then click Delete below the list on the right.
Third,
Your Mac is starved for RAM. 2 GBs of RAM is too smal amount of RAM to run OS X Mavericks.
Your year and model Mac can take a total of 6 GBs of RAM.
I seriously and STRONGLY advise you purchase and install the full 6 GBs of RAM.
RAM is user installable and relatively easy for a newbie or novice Mac user to install.

Correct and reliable Mac RAM can be purchased from online Mac RAM sources Crucial memory or OWC (macsales.com).
OWC (macsales.com)  is the only online Mac RAM seller with the 6 GB RAM kit.
