PC running 3d Games slower than it used to
i recently moved my pc down to the basement and now it can't play a 3d game without slowing down for more than 10 minutes. It can still play older 2d games like Majesty, but just the other day I was able to play Battlefield 2 and Mount & Blade on full graphics for as long as i wanted. Now it slows down as if I were playing an internet game and experiencing lag, but I am only playing offline. I've tried Disk Defrag, changing outlets, cleaning Temp Files, clearing out unused programs. I'm at the point of where all I can think of is to erase everything and start over, but would hate to do that and have the problem return. Anyone know what is wrong?
Gokengt, are you using the integrated video or a dedicated video card? If you are running a dedicated video card, you may be able to adjust the fan speed. I agree with Dave that it sounds like a heat problem. In many basements there is not sufficient airflow to cool the computer.

Here is the etrecheck report. Any suggestions of some other maintenance I can perform on my computer? A mac tech did a system diagnostic and found nothing wrong with the hardware. I have already reinstalled Mavericks, so it seems like the next step is wiping the harddrive clean and starting over, but I want to avoid that if possible! Can anybody help?

Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can read it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal 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 Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Broadband a lot slower than it used to be.
Hi,
Looking for some help and/or advice please. My broadband had been running fine for months (tbh lost track could be a year or two) maxing out at about 750 kBps = 6MB when downloading. I got the letter in from BT a couple of months ago suggesting they were gonna improve the service countrywide and I should get some kind of benefit in speeds. Not too long after that my max download speed dropped by 75% to around 1.5MB. I found this forum and read about many others having similar problems so I figured it was a side effect of the work being done on the lines and just to be patient. After a few weeks my speed went back up to around 3MB which i hoped was a step in the right direction. It remained this way for a few weeks then suddenly dropped back down to 1.5MB a few days ago. Unfortunately it has remained this way since then.
I have ran the check on the BT page where you input your number and they tell you what kinda connection you should expect, it came back as around 4.5MB.
I ran the speedtest on the BT site and got the following results :
1. Best Effort Test: -provides background information.
Download Speed
1578 Kbps
0 Kbps 2000 Kbps
Max Achievable Speed
Download speedachieved during the test was - 1578 Kbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speedsis 800-2000 Kbps.
Additional Information:
Your DSL Connection Rate :1776 Kbps(DOWN-STREAM), 445 Kbps(UP-STREAM)
IP Profile for your line is - 1500 Kbps
The throughput of Best Efforts (BE) classes achieved during the test is - 20.82:20.1:59.08 (SBE:NBEBE)
These figures represent the ratio while sententiously passing Sub BE, Normal BE and Priority BE marked traffic.
The results of this test will vary depending on the way your ISP has decided to use these traffic classes.
2. Upstream Test: -provides background information.
Upload Speed
364 Kbps
0 Kbps 445 Kbps
Max Achievable Speed
>Upload speed achieved during the test was - 364 Kbps
Additional Information:
Upstream Rate IP profile on your line is - 445 Kbps
We were unable to identify any performance problem with your service at this time.
Which obviously agrees with what I am getting.
I dont have a BT hub in use at the mo so here are the equivalent (I hope) details from my modem/router ...ehm...thingy (technical jargon )
Modem Status
Connection Status Connected
Us Rate (Kbps) 445
Ds Rate (Kbps) 1776
US Margin 22

There has been no major changes that i can think off in the last while and when these readings were taken my modem had been up and connected for over 90 hours.
Would someone be able to explain, advise about and possibly help me sort out this problem pls.
Thanks if you managed to read this far@robo878
Thanks very much for the info and help robo, not sure I fully understand what it means but certainly a lot more than I did before I posted. TY I will have a look into getting it switched to see what difference that makes.
@imjolly (great name think my fav char was the 'polis' with the flying goggles assuming you mean the rev i.m.jolly)
Thank you too for your reply. I think you may well be right about the letter, just remember it being about a possible 100% increase or such, which would make sense going from a possible 8 to 20MB. At the moment I am just connected via an extension cable to the standard socket with a splitter for my phone and my modem. I have found the video on the BT re the test socket, is that worth giving a go? My phone is a cordless unfortunately so may well not be ideal/accurate but I am getting a bit of 'fuzz' and a couple of slight 'clicks'. Don't know anything about line noise and what it should be so sorry I can't tell you more. -
Anyone else? CS4 running much slower than CS3?
I just upgraded to CS4 from CS3. All of the applications are running much, much slower than CS3, particularly InDesign. My computer is literally fresh out of the box; specs below. Software and patches up to date. Thinking of uninstalling CS4 and reverting back to CS3. Any suggestions/feedback?
MacBook Pro 15"
2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor
4GB memory
320GB 5400-rpm hard drive
NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT graphics processor with 256MB
1440 by 900 pixels
Snow Leopard OX
Purchased CS4 Master Collection. Other software installed includes iLife, iWork, Office for Mac.I'm not using In Design yet, but for Photoshop and Acrobat my sense is that they are fast or faster than CS3, and Snow Leopard has reduced the launch time for all my apps compared with Leopard.
Yes there are issues with running Adobe apps with Snow Leopard, but some of them are the same issues when running CS3 apps with Leopard--and in any event, these are, I believe, all crashing bugs, not things that slow down responsiveness. I personally have had only a few problems with Design Std CS4 apps + Snow Leopard. -
In CS6, JavaScript Running MUCH Slower than ActionScript
Hi All,
I am finding that in CS6, JS code runs MUCH slower than ActionScript code. I don't want to double-post here - Full details may be found where I posted them in the InDesign Scripting forum at - CS6 JavaScript Running Much Slower than ActionScript, before I realized that this forum might be more appropriate.
The basic gist of it is that I had a Flex/ActionScript Extension, which I obviously needed to start converting to JavaScript in advance of the next version not supporting ActionScript. I converted 20,000 lines of my business logic code from ActionScript to JavaScript (grrr...) - only to find that it now runs 5 times slower than it did in ActionScript.
What has been the experience of others who have converted large Extensions from ActionScript to JavaScript?
I would greatly appreciate any and all suggestions.
TIA,

Possible answer to LR 2.6 & 2.7 Seeming to run slower than earlier versions
I just downloaded and unpgraded from LR 2.6 to 2.7 on a Windows Vista 64-bit machine. Version 2.6 seemed to run a lot slower than 2.5. When I read the LR2.7 readme file on the download page I noticed one of the known issues is that at least ver. 2.7 runs slower when there are lots of files in the recycle bin. after I upgraded I emptied the recycle bin (Of almost 3000 files), and yes indeed performance did improve - dramatically. This also improved performance on LR 3 Beta 2.
Thanks for the suggestions. I have tried each idea in the order suggested. Unfortunately I have not yet solved the problem. In some circumstances, with certain paper profiles and no other color management in place, I get faulty prints but they have large areas of solid color in areas where there is a large amounts of color saturation in the original image. The faulty image below is printed to plain letter-sized paper ar Normal Quality. One clarification I wish to make is that my HP printer driver was not specifically a 64-bit driver, but rather 32-bit/64-bit driver compatable for Win 7.
I may try completely uninstalling LR before reinstalling, instead of a "repair-install" but I am still open to other suggestions.

Snow leopard is 30-50% slower than Tiger???
I've recently upgraded from Tiger (10.4.11) to Snow Leopard (10.6.4) and to be perfectly honest, I'm real disappointed. I'm a game developer and the first thing I noticed is that all my games now run 30-50% slower than in Tiger. I've read that this is caused by SL's OpenGL drivers.
1. Is anyone else experiencing this?
2. Is Apple working on a fix for this, and if so, how soon can we expect to see it?
3. Short of buying more hardware, is there anything I can do to fix this?Sorry if I wasn't clear, the issue is that the games (and the game editor) run 30-50% slower on MY computer (specs below). My development machine has become 50% less useful thanks to SL.

i just recently purchased the Yoga 10 Tablet and I finally received the shipment. I opened the box, updated firmware and all apps, then downloaded a game from the app store that I play on my iPhone. The game opens but runs so slow, I cannot even play it! Is the tablet so weak that it cannot run the game? If so, how many other apps will this tablet not be able to properly run? The game is Game of Thrones: Ascent and can be installed and played for free through google apps and apple apps. I am highly disapointed that the first app I try to use with the tablet and the cannot run it properly. I'm not sure what to do because I see no tech support for lenovo that I can call but I'm very tempted to keep searching and see if I can contact the company to return the product. I am highly dissapointed and I'm wondering if anyone else has problems running apps and games with this device? If any mod or company man is reading this and can help understand, that would be greatly appreciated as well.
I am having the same issue with my Yoga 2 Pro 8 incher tablet. Win 8.1 runs like silk and so does Windows 10 for the 1st 10 minutes then browsing my PC it just turns into a laggy mess taking 10-20 seconds to open folders until I sign Out and in again or reboot... I have all the latest drivers (including Lenovo ones) and I did fresh install, but it's still grinds to a halt after 10 minutes... even thought the CPU or HDD are not being used more than 5%. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ISSUE RESOLVED:- (Well for me, and hopefully for you... need to test more to make sure it was this) The intolerable lag in Windows 10 was resolved by DISBALING the LENOVO SMART SWITCH service in ADMINISTRATIVE TOOLS/SERVICES located in the Control Panel If you want to observe the instant speeding up of your system when it's lagging open the TASK MANAGER and hit END TASK on the LENOVO SMART SWITCH service. Not sure what this service does in WIndows 8.1 or Windows 10 but I ain't missed it.

Why is running Elements 8 slower on Windows 7 than XP?
I am afraid this is query is a bit long, but I have tried to provide all the
info I can ....
THE PROBLEM
My old PC died, so I bought a new PC to improve my video processing speed, and also move off Windows XP.
- I installed the same copy of Adobe Premiere Elements 8 on both PCs.
- I applied no updates (on either machine) as the original versions works fine (on XP - why fix something that isn't broken)
- I changed the preferences to stop background rendering (due to data volumes -
same on old PC).
- I then copied the project file (.prel) from the old PC to the new.
Having set up the new PC, I carried out a benchmark test in Premiere Elements 8.0 converting the same 4-hour long HD file from M2TS to MPG on both PCs.
It was 4 times slower on the new PC !!!!
I then tried out another video conversion program (to demux MPG files so that they can be edited in Premiere) and that was 30% faster on the new PC.
In the Premier test the original file was on a 6GB/s 3TB disk drive with the output file on a 6GB/s 2TB drive (which also has the Windows system and Adobe cache files).
- Both processes ran identically without errors. In fact the output files were almost identical (one was 12 685 358 KB, the other 12 658 402 KB). I ran MediaInfo on both output files and it summarised them as identical in terms of codecs, size, etc, etc.
- On the old PC, CPU utilisation is usually around 90%, on the new one it is closer to 50%.
- Disk and memory utilisation are not limiting factors.
Can anyone help me finding out why the new PC is so much slower than the old?

2 x KINGSTON 4096MB DDR3
NVIDIA GeForce GT 610 1GB
1 x 2 TB disks with 4k sectors
4 x 3 TB disks with 64k sectors
Windows 7 Pro
BACKGROUND
I have a very specific use of Premiere (for research purposes):
- I have 2 HD video Sony XDR160E camcorders monitoring bird nests 13 hours per day.
- Each camera generates 160 GB data per day on its internal HD.
- File sizes range from 20 GB (smallest) to 160 GB.
- I download the files from the camera to disk using the cameras download facility.
It is then that I use Premiere.
- I open a project that has the exact specs of the camera's output.
- I open the M2TS file in Premiere, drag it onto the sceneline.
- I do not view the file but immediately share it using a preset that matches the requirements of my MVIX PVR.
This bit is not relevant to the problem per se, but provides background info:
- I then copy the file onto the PVR decoder.
- I view the file through an MVIX PVR which allows viewing at 32x speed with minimal data loss.
- I will then identify activity periods (which may be only 5 minutes per day).
- I use the camera's editor to extract the relevant clips keeping all the camera metadata intact.
- After that I may use Premiere again to create illustrative montages.
CONCLUSION
Does anyone have a clue as to why I am having this problem? (it is not an error per se)
- The obvious differences are the operating system, the graphics card and the disk allocation unit size
- It may well NOT be a Premiere issue, it may be Windows 7 Pro that is causing the problem.
- I assume that the graphics card is irrelevant as I never actually view the video in Premiere (in this scenario)
- Could it be that Adobe cannot handle the 64k disk allocation size?
- Is there some special setting in Windows 7 that I need to enable that wasn't required in Windows XP?
- Is there some special setting in Adobe that I need to enable when running in a 64-bit environment?
Or is there something else I am missing?
Any help would be really appreciated - it could take weeks to try out all the various combinations to identify the problem.

Thanx for your insights. I do not have the disks partitioned (except the system disk, I always like to keep the system files separated from the 'user' files to make backups simpler).
I suspect you are right that upgrading to 11 would speed things up, but I still suspect there is something more fundamentally wrong in my Windows 7 set-up - my guess is that upgrading to 11 might double the speed of processing - but that would still leave it 50% slower than on the old machine.
My first step will be to run all the patches on 8 - but not for a few days. We are expecting 3 or 4 days of thunderstorms (normal for this time of year in South Africa) and my UPS hasn't the battery life to keep going during an upgrade cycle.

I have erased and restored my 24 inch Intel iMac. I have upgraded to the last version of X os. My system is running WAY slower than it was before. Even opening windows seems to lag and the spinning wheel come up for everything. Every task is slow, even typing this! lol
Here are my specs:
Model Name: iMac
Model Identifier: iMac8,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.8 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 6 MB
Memory: 4 GB
Bus Speed: 1.07 GHz
Boot ROM Version: IM81.00C1.B00
SMC Version (system): 1.30f1
Any ideas would be helpful. Is this a hardware issue?
Thanks!Matt:
Thanks for the update. It is good to know that the maintenance procedures helped. Regular maintenance and a good backup are key to computer security. Gulliver's article has a suggested schedule. Dr. Smoke's FAQ on Backup and Recovery has excellent information and advice. I part company with him on his insistence on Retrospect, which I have found to be difficult to use. SuperDuper has been shown the best backup software in these tests.
If you usually leave your computer on or asleep, it is good practice to shut down and start up in Safe Mode occausionally. I do it about once weekly.
Good luck.

To run a piece of PL/SQL code, in TT is much slower than in ORACLE.
A piece of PL/SQL code , about 1500 lines, package is named rtmon_event, function in it is named rtmon_SHOLD_CUS_RPT;
the PL/SQL code is run in ORACLE.
Now I want to get fast speed, I think of TT.
I rewrite the PL/SQL code by grammer in TT.
But the speed in TT is much slower than the speed in ORACLE.
In ORACLE, to run the PL/SQL code, it need 80 seconds; but In TT, to run the PL/SQL code, it need 183 seconds;
How can I resolve the problem?
Btw: there are some joins of 2 tables, or 3 tables in rtmon_event.rtmon_SHOLD_CUS_RPT, and some complex DML in it.
The run method is :
declare
a number;
begin
a := rtmon_event.rtmon_SHOLD_CUS_RPT ;
end;
Thanks a lot.The easiest way to view a plan is to use ttIsql and issue the command:
explain SQL-statement;
For example:
explain select a.ol1, b.col2 from taba a, tab b where a.key = b.key;
See the documentation that 'hitgon' pointed you to to help you interpret the plans.

Multihreading seems to run slower than multiple JVM
Hello,
I have a 4-core machine and I use windows XP.
I build a java application that can launch a thread doing a series of heaving calculation.
The thread takes 8sec to finish and the task manager indicate that 30% of CPU is in use.
If I start 2 threads at the same time, each one finish in 14sec, using 40% of CPU.
Now if I start 2 times my application, and run simultaneously 1 thread in each one, they all finish in 8 sec but using 60% of CPU.
My question is why multithreading goes slower than running 2 JVM in parallel ? When running a profiler on the app, it doesn't seems to wait for shared ressources.
Regarding the CPU usage, it seems that using one JVM doesn't use full available CPU.
Is that a 'normal' behaviour, have you some explanation to it ?
I hope I'm clear enough !
RaphaelI have digged it, and found the part of code that has this behaviour : intialization or copy of a big array.
There is a piece of code showing this behaviour :
public class TestParallel {
public TestParallel() throws Exception {
Thread T1 = new Thread(new Worker());
Thread T2 = new Thread(new Worker());
Thread T3 = new Thread(new Worker());
Thread T4 = new Thread(new Worker());
long time = System.currentTimeMillis();
T1.start();
T1.join();
T2.start();
T2.join();
System.out.println("Serial: " + (System.currentTimeMillis()-time) + " millis");
time = System.currentTimeMillis();
T3.start();
T4.start();
T3.join();
T4.join();
System.out.println("Parallel : " + (System.currentTimeMillis()-time) + " millis");
public class Worker implements Runnable {
public void run(){
long time = System.currentTimeMillis();
for (int i=0 ; i < 1000 ; i++){
double[] aBigArray = new double[500000];
System.out.println("Worker time : " + (System.currentTimeMillis()-time) + " millis");
public static void main(String args[]){
try{
new TestParallel();
}catch (Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}I imagine it's a normal behaviour, and there is no workaround.
So I try another way, without array initialization but using System.arrayCopy. But I have the same problem.
You can try by changing Worker runnable this way :
public class Worker implements Runnable {
public void run(){
double[] array1 = new double[500000];
double[] array2 = new double[500000];
Arrays.fill(array1, 0.03);
long time = System.currentTimeMillis();
for (int i=0 ; i < 1000 ; i++){
System.arraycopy(array1, 0, array2, 0, 500000);
System.out.println("Worker time : " + (System.currentTimeMillis()-time) + " millis");
}I have this output :
Worker time : 3625 millis
Worker time : 3609 millis
Serial: 7266 millis
Worker time : 6531 millis
Worker time : 6563 millis

Firefox 4.0 is the WORST browser I have ever seen. It freezes, crashes, closes, changes screens, does not respond, and runs 8X SLOWER than 3.6. Tasks I used to do in 30 minutes, now takes me 40 minutes or more. I went back to 3.6 and immediately had a tremendous improvement.
Mozilla needs to get rid of this load of lies about a new crap program, and go back to the 3.6 version. Version 4.0 is WORST than any other program I have ever seen.The slow / hesitant scrolling problem seems to be an artifact of the database Firefox uses to keep track of where you go, what you do, etc. It uses sqlite databases which get fragmented over time.
There are several fixes:
Some are add-ons and work internally, such as Vacuum Places (search the addons for it).
Some are external. Speedyfox is one I just tried, and found to work quite well. I think it did a better job than Vacuum Places, but requires Firefox to be shut down before it can work properly.
Find Speedyfox using a web search. -
Why does the application built executable run slower than my developement lib.
The Response given was LabView 5.0.1.f1 specific. Iam however, using LabView 6.i. The Application runs approximatley 3 to 40 times slower than the developement library. Additionally the Write to spreadsheet data is corrupted when using the application executable. Is there a different solution for 6.i ????
Tnx
Len KrausThat does not sound right. I recommend rebuilding your VI. Beore you do, open the top level VI and press contol-shift-run arrow to perform a manual binary recompile. This makes LabVIEW recompile the whole code. Most times you will not see anything happen but occasionally an error will surface. Be sure to save the VI then rebuild it.
You may also need to reinstall the LabVIEW run time engine and/or LabVIEW. I would start with the run time engine first. -
My four year old iMac is running much slower than when it was new. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do to "clean it up" and get it running like it used to?
What year, screen size, CPU speed and amount of RAM installed?
To find out info about your system,
Click on the Apple symbol in the upper left of the OS X main menu bar. A drop down menu appears.
Click About this Mac. A smaller popup window appears. This gives you basic info like what version of OS X your iMac is running, the speed of your iMac's CPU and how much RAM is installed.
Click on the button that says More Info. A larger window appears giving you a complete overview of your iMac's hardware specs.
Highlight all of this info and copy/paste all of this into another reply to this post, editing out your iMac's serial number before actually posting the reply.
This will tell us everything about your iMac so we may begin to help with your iMac issues.
How full is your Mac's hard drive?
Locate your iMac's hard drive icon on the OS X desktop. Click the icon once, then use the keyboard key combination Command-I. This will give you additonal info about your iMac's internal hard drive.
Post this info in your reply here, also.
Here are some general tips to keep your Mac's hard drive trim and slim as possible
You should never, EVER let a conputer hard drive get completely full, EVER!
With Macs and OS X, you shouldn't let the hard drive get below 15 GBs or less of free data space.
If it does, it's time for some hard drive housecleaning.
Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
Have you emptied your Mac's Trash icon in the Dock?
If you use iPhoto, iPhoto has its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
If you store images in other locations other than iPhoto, then you will have to weed through these to determine what to archive and what to delete.
If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
Look through your other Mailboxes and other Mail categories to see If there is other mail you can archive and/or delete.
STAY AWAY FROM DELETING ANY FILES FROM OS X SYSTEM FOLDER!
Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
Look in your Applications folder, if you have applications you haven't used in a long time, if the app doesn't have a dedicated uninstaller, then you can simply drag it into the OS X Trash icon. IF the application has an uninstaller app, then use it to completely delete the app from your Mac.
To find other large files, download an app called Omni Disk Sweeper.
Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
When you install and launch it, let it do its initial automatic tests, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the maintenance tabs that let OnyX clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.
Good Luck!
