Red CPU and Slow Macbook Pro

My macbook pro has been running super slow for the past 4 months . Whenever I go to the activity monitor I find the CPU screen full of red lines, I have many applications that I don't know know running and I try to quit or force quit them but it doesn't work with all of them (I choose the ones under my username).
Then the CPU screen suddenly gets black and my computer gets fast again for a while (like an hour or less) then gets slow again. Is my macbook infected with a trojan or what could be really going on ?

Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Monitor the activity so you might note what is hogging CPU time when the computer becomes sluggish.

Having issues with 13" MacBook Pro. Running very slow and blank screen and sleep mode.

Bought my MBPro summer 2009. About a month / 6 weeks ago it began to run extremely slow at points. Now it is running poorly and getting very slow on a daily basis, to the point where it will not open applications, documents or even web pages for in excess of 5 minutes. I'm beginning to lose patience!
Also at the exact same time of these performance issues occuring, my MacBook Pro will not awaken from sleep mode when the lid is closed. Showing a blank dark screen and having to hard reset in order to boot up my system again and get it running.
What is the best solution in order to resolve these issues?
Your help is greatly appreciated.

Did you run Disk Utility>First Aid? If so what were the results? This is a copy of mine, note that the bottom line says: The partition map appears to be OK:
Ciao.

I occasionally have issues waking my macbook pro up from sleep mode and have to restart the computer. The apple store replaced the sleep part but the problem is still there

I occasionally have issues waking my macbook pro up from sleep mode resulting in my need to restart the computer. I dislike all of my programs opening at once when I do get the computer started becasue it slows the cpu down. The apple store replaced the sleep part but the problem is still there. Note: i never had this problem with snow leopard

I'm not certain but my new MBA 13...when in sleep mode comes back on from a black screen when I simply click on the left mouse button. Also, one time I did a SECURE EMPTY TRASH on files that totalled more than 1GB and it took so long that the fan kept increasing in speed so I pressed on the POWER button and the MBA shut...I was able to boot up with no problem. As a rule, I now only do secured erases for trash bin data totalling 500mb or less...anything above that gets a regular erase (dump).

I have lightroom 5.7 and a macbook pro 10.9.5. Occasionally when I am editing a photo in the develop module, I suddenly get a "file not found" message and the editing ceases to work. There is no "exclamation" icon below the histogram box in the Library

I have lightroom 5.7 and a macbook pro 10.9.5. Occasionally when I am editing a photo in the develop module, I suddenly get a "file not found" message and the editing ceases to work. There is no "exclamation" icon below the histogram box in the Library module or on the photo in grid view, and the histogram is gone. What is going on? Trying to find it using the "find missing photos" in the library menu does nothing.

What do you mean "Leave them my laptop again"? do you mean you have had it worked on before? for the same problem or a different one?
You need to take it in to Apple ASAP. No matter how long they have it, you want it fixed and fixed correctly.

How do I delete an album and the photos from iphoto on macbook pro

I have set up several photo albums on my macbook pro while expereimenting with macro. The experiments are completed and I want to delete several entire albuns, including the name and all the photos within the album. How do I that? Thanks in advance.

Deleting Photos from an iPhoto Library
1 - from an Event or the Photos mode: select the photo(s) and use the Delete key to move the photos to the trash bin. Then empty the iPhoto Trash bin as follows:
2 - from an album, smart album, book, slideshow, card, etc.: select the photo(s) and use the key combination of Command+Option+Delete to move the photos to the trash bin. Then empty the trash bin as above.
NOTE: deleting a photo from an album, slideshow, book, etc., with only the Delete key only deletes that photo from that item. Deleting a photo from an Event deletes ALL occurences of that photo in the library.

Can I transfer my individual iPhone photo albums to my MacBook Pro and iPad?

I have taken my photos on my iPhone and broken them down into separate album folders. When I sync my iPhone to my laptop, it will transfer the pictures over, but not in the separate album folders I've created on my iPhone.
Can I somehow transfer my individual iPhone photo albums to my MacBook Pro and iPad?
Why won't the "Album Folders" transfer over? I know I can create separate folders directly on my laptop, but that doesn't help with transferring the folders from my iPhone over to my laptop or iPad.

The Seagate backup drive I bought doesn't support 10.5.8
The only reason I can see for that is it's formatted NTFS, which would likely be Read Only in 10.5.x, if you can reformat it MacOS extended, which would erase everything on it now, then that should work for your purposes.

SL and freezing macbook pro?

hello there everybody
okay so, snow leopard is working like a dream so far...quickens up my macbook nicely! anyway, i'm having a problem with it, and was wondering if anybody was experiencing anything similar?
Sometimes when i shut the lid of my macbook, the system freezes and won't respond to anything - not even force quit. most notably, this happened to me last night just after i had almost finished typing an important document on pages, and when i lifted the lid of the macbook it could not be saved! i actually had to just hold the power button and wait til it turned off. my macbook has never frozen before, and in the past 4 days (since i installed SL) has frozen about 5 times - all when i have opened the lid.
i'm wondering if there is anything specifically wrong with my machine or if it is a wider issue affecting other macbook pro snow leopard users?
thanks for reading

I had another total freeze of the system last night. I was in Safari, but the previous 2 occasions I was not.
Just to be clear.
This is *not a hang*, where network access slows everything to a crawl. Or where you can't appear to access anything at all and the beachball spins. (In these occasions you can pull your ethernet, or switch off Airport from the menu and control will be quickly returned).
This is *not a kernel panic*. There is no message of a panic and there is nothing in the Console afterwards (though I'm not an expert at reading it).
This is *not an app. crashing*, where you can implement Force Quit, or Cmd-tab to another app.
This is a TOTAL FREEZE of the Mac. Everything stops. The clock, network traffic (I have iStat Menus), the cpu, the fans, the entire Mac has totally frozen. The only thing working is the monitor. Using the startup button is the only way to recover.
Once restarted, the Console reveals that indeed, everything stopped. There are no messages. (I can check the time because I can see the clock, when it froze.)
Last night, I was in Safari, just moving the mouse with the trackpad (MBPro-Unibody-2008) and this happened. I noticed when I restarted, that the frozen icon on the monitor, was NOT one that should have been showing. In fact the icon that showed, wasn't available anywhere on that page. (Or perhaps not at all in Safari? It is the 'grab' icon with the 4 arrows pointing outwards. Strange.
The only message in the Console was this :
com.apple.WebKit.PluginAgent[178] Debugger() was called!
Subsequently I have removed all the old plugins from HD/Library/Internet Plugins/ and re-installed Flash. So now it's just Safari and Flash ... but I doubt this is the issue ... although, Safari has most probably been running in the background when I had the 2 other freezes ... so who knows.

Slow Macbook Pro - any options?

Problem description:
slow macbook pro. everything works, just slower than christmas 1985…slow.
I've looked through several posts searching for my solution, not sure how to test my memory - may be my problem - that and i'm only running 2GB RAM. I'd go upgrade that tomorrow if that would fix my issue.
also, battery seems to not last like it should, even after replacing the battery.
Any solutions or options for me?
Thanks crew -
Gary

Hi Gary, I may have a simple solution for you, and hope it's not too late.
Try to uninstall AppTrap !
I have a MacBook Pro 15" with 16GB RAM and two SSD in it. So it can't be slow But recently I saw that my CPU was hot (70-75°C) and fans were spinning even with all apps closed. Same problem with the battery shorter than ever. In Activity Monitor I saw that AppTrap (that you have too) was taking 2,88GB of my RAM… So I disabled it on the pref panel and uncheck launch at start, and I quitted it in the activity monitor. My CPU becomes cool again (40°C) and fans stopped instantly.
I really hope this will help you !

I have pluged a portable battery to the USB and my macbook pro stopped working after that, right before it shut down there was a message on the screen that said something like " USB device is withdrawing so much power, please disconnect and connect again?

I have plugged a portable battery to the USB and my macbook pro stopped working after that, right before it shut down there was a message on the screen that said something like " USB device is withdrawing so much power, please disconnect and connect again?
if the device I connected have caused this, shouldn't the macbook itself have some type of protection that should prevent this from happening.
because when I took it to an apple certified maintenance shop, the guy said that now it could only run while connected to the power. it won't run on batteries. and that I have to change the motherboard.
can I just replace the damaged part only, would apple consider this as a design issue and they could pay for it, or should I just buy a new motherboard for 800$.
Help.

BB1B2,
The problem is in finding a tech shop that will/can do board level repairs on Macs. They are few. And I certainly wouldn't spend $800 on a new logic board - I would replace the computer if I had to pay that much!
You could call around to a few repair shops and see if they feel competent to isolate the problem and do a board level repair - but I'm afraid, in the end, that your search will be futile.
Sorry,
Clinton

My iPhone 4s will not connect with my home WiFi network. I have ios6 on my phone. I have updated my IMac and my MacBook Pro with iOS 10.8.2. Anyone have any suggestions? It was connecting with no problems prior to updating my two computers.

My iPhone 4s will not connect with my home WiFi network. I have ios6 on my iPhone. The connection was working perfectly before I updated my IMac and my MacBook Pro to ios 10.8.2. I have had ios6 since I purchased the phone a couple of months ago. It searches for a network and finds them, but when it asks for my password, it will not accept the password. Have never had this happen before.

Hello krosebear,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
If you are having difficulties connecting your iPhone to a Wi-Fi network, the following article should provide troubleshooting that should help you resolve the issue.
