REALLLYY SLOWWW!

The last few days my MB has been running so very slow, i have used ONXY to clean up the system, rbooted, i used monolingual to remove the unused parts. Any ideas?

Another idea is to also check to see how many programs are loading when you boot up. Go into the System Preferences, then User Accounts, then Login items.
There might be some things you can remove, and that will help...

  • Dreamweaver CS3 for Mac OS X is slowww!

    Howdy,
    I'm a recent Windows to Mac OS X switcher, and won't turn
    back... but I am finding it hard to get use to Dreamweaver CS3 on
    OS X as its coder view is so clunky and slow?
    Tbh I never used Dreamweaver CS3 on Windows, I was an AVID
    Homesite user (that will never be beaten in my opinion), but I
    purchased a copy of Dreamweaver CS3 (along with Photoshop CS3) when
    I switched to mac as I felt that will be the next best thing for a
    ColdFusion Developer like myself.
    To a degree I'm not disappointed with Dreamweaver CS3, it
    does do everything (nearly) that Homesite done for me, and a few
    things more, but they need to improve the performance of the code
    view! Homesite was lightning fast, but dreamweaver is slowww. I
    mean even hitting return to go to the next line in code view takes
    a while to do... it just seems like its waiting for something to
    happen all the time. I've disabled ALL features I do not use in
    Preferences (mainly all WYSIWYG features and auto-completion etc...
    I never used that) but this hasn't improved anything.
    I'm on a not fantastic, Macbook Pro 2.16GHz Intel C2D with
    2GB Ram, but surely it should perform better than this right? How
    about you guys on kickass Mac Pro's... does it do the same?
    I'd love to get rid of ALL WYSIWYG features from dreamweaver
    as I never use that crap, maybe that will improve performance?
    Maybe Adobe can make a "coder" version of Dreamweaver?
    Anyone have any ideas how to improve performance? Or am I
    lumbered with it running like a dead dog?
    Any help will be appreciated!

    I've been a Mac convert for about 2 years now. Right now, I'm
    running DW CS3 on an Intel iMac and it runs beautifully. On my
    Powerbook G4 (1.33 GHz PPC G4 and 2 GB of ram) the performance is
    slightly lacking. One thing to be wary of with adobe products -
    they can be memory hogs. Photoshop is especially notorious for
    this.
    Also, the more you have installed on a Mac laptop, the slower
    it will run. Mine used to take a few minutes to boot because of all
    the programs I had installed, and nothing was starting up with the
    machine. After a format and clean install it runs like new.
    That is something for you to consider, if you have all the
    necessary software to reinstall everything you want. I never turn
    off any features in DW and I have only had a few buggy problems.
    Nothing major though.

  • Safari ( and other browsers) are slowww!

    I am running Safari (2.01) along with system 10.4.2 on my G5 Imac. This computer is networked with 3 others, all are running various browsers (ie,firefox).
    Safari web pages on the Imac take forever to load. I thought it might be just Safari, so I used the other browsers loaded on this machine, Firefox and IE. They are slowwww too. The weird thing is that the other 3 machines do not have any slow downs with opening pages! Does anyone have any ideas as to what this problem could be and waht I can do to fix this? Thanks!!

    Try removing the router from the system and connect directly from the computer to the modem via ethernet. I had the same problem (all browsers slow on only one of my computers - download speed okay, but loading sites very slow), and doing that showed me the issue was with the router. I reset the router to default settings and it is now working normally.

  • [SOLVED] BUSINESS COMPONENT SLOWWW

    The problem was in the getEstimatedRowCount method. The select count(*) from table takes too long.
    My query spends 1 second running, but the select count takes up to 3 minutes. Will continue on

    Later, i had problems with hasNextForCollection, when getting the last page of data.

  • Amazon S3 Backup with Cisco PIX 501 Router - slowww

    We are in the process of setting up an Amazon S3 network backup of the NAS server we have in our office.  We are using a Synology NAS to backup to Amazon s3, and we use a Cisco PIX 501 to secure our network.  The backup from the NAS to Amazon is going painfully slow, so I contacted Synology to resolve the issue.  After they examined everything, they think the router is filtering outbound traffic, and this is causing the upload to slow down.  I was told the upload should happen over HTTP and HTTPS, and I made sure these ports where open through the Access Rules.  There are no rules defined in the Filter Settings.
    I looked at the settings with the PDM, and I can't find where the filtering would be. Does someone have any insight to what could be happening?   I'm not too familiar with the PIX or all the network settings involved.
    Thanks!

  • My mac book is running slowww

  • PowerBook is SLOWWW!!

    My computer is running very slow lately. Every time I click on an application the dreaded "Beach Ball" comes up. It took me ten minutes just to open Safari this morning. I am not running any high-powered programs. Just mostly Safari, Mail, Quicken, and MS Office. Please help!!
    P.S. All my software updates are current. I don't know what else to do.

    If you do not do so regularly, or if you have not done so recently you need to run the Disk Utility from your most recent system disk to verify and repair permissions and the hard drive. You should also run a defrag utility like Disk Warrior and the Apple Hardware Test. It could also have something to do with the amount of, or lack of, free space on your hard drive.

  • CS3 + Vista + Epson R1800 = SLOWWW dialogues

    I've no clue why this is happening. When I select my R1800 printer in CS3 (it is not my default printer) all the dialogue forms throughout the printing process take about 2 minutes each. It practically freezes the computer. It happens immediately when I select the R1800 and disappears completely as soon as the last dialogue form is done (and the printer starts reacting).
    I have Vista and CS3 working fine at home with an R2200 Epson. Any ideas? It works fine with the other printer on my network (a Ricoh Multi-function system).

    I tend to think that it's an security issue with some of the helper processes for the printer. Epson printers launch a number of executables to display dialogs, status monitors and so on and they may either be hindered by limited permissions or run in compatibility mode. I'd investigate that and maybe re-install/ update the driver. Also make sure you run any installs as administrator on Vista. Likewise, attempt to print with full admin priviliges and see if it is any different. Lastly, if your printer comes with any soft-proof and RIP tools, try to not install them and use the printer directly. Maybe it's just the initialization of these tools that takes forever.

  • Slowww transfer speeds from my networked G5 to powerbook

    I am trying to tweak my network and get my mac g5 and powerbook g4 talking quickly. Both on 10.4.3, I'm getting speeds slightly greater than internet transfer speeds going to and from. I'm not a wizard but I feel like I have a pretty decent handle on it. Can someone give me a few tips?
    Using a standard issue linksys wireless router/cable modem and my g4 laptop (built in wireless), and my g5 (airport extreme card).
    First off, I'm trying to make sense of the networking options. In my network finder window, I have the folder with my domain name (club403), then library, then My Network, then Servers. If I try to connect via Club403, I get the SMB/CIFS connect window (looks dif than the other one) which allows me to connect to my user account on the remote machine. Connecting here provides me the lowest speeds. If I use My Network and connect there, it allows me to locally mount a drive from the remote computer. This gives me faster speeds but nowhere near what I can achieve on the same wireless network using my PCs. Any tips would be much appreciated!
    thanks,
    steve

    #1 The license agreement only allows you to run the OS on one computer at a time.
    #2 needsomeihelp appears to be giving you instructions for installing using the discs but you don't have those.
    #3 You can clone a drive to another drive in a bootable manner but in doing so you will erase the target drive.
    #4 I am not sure how well Tiger installed for a G5 will run on a very different model. Sometimes specific resources are installed according to the model computer the installer detects.

  • Sony Z1 Lollipop running very slowww

    Hello, Would anyone know why Z1 with Lollipop 5.0.2 is so slow on supposed to be a flagship phone? E.g.1. opened a webpage in Chrome2. clicked Home button and have to wait 4-5s untill all icons such as: Music, Albums, Viber to be displayed on the screen. Opening Chrome, Facebook takes ages ~3s everytime. Why this phone is so slow??? I have only CM Security running, had Clean Master for few weeks and no improvements at all. Did factory reset after upgrading to 5.0.2 My phone is encrypted, is it sth affecting?  

    Hi matosh, have you tried booting the phone in Safe Mode to see whether the issue occurs then?

  • Windows Vista + T61 SLOWWW!!!

    Hello all,
    I have some problems with my customers using T61 and Windows Vista. Hope I am not the only one...
    The Problem is simple: IT´S VERY SLOW
    Yes, i know: It´s always to slow. But it takes 5 to 10 sec. until Microsoft Word starts, no other programs are running.
    After a recovery reinstall and a full update (Lenovo updates and Windows Vista) it works fine.
    But after installing Office, MindManager and Adobe Creative Suite the performance goes extremly down.
    I searched over the Internet and found something about the IndexerServices and other "Perfomance" tools from Windows Vista.
    Are this services responsible for this performance problems?
    I don´t believe that I am the only one who experienced this problem. Did anyone else expect the same performance problem?
    Currently, i have 3 ThinPad T61 Series with 2GB RAM, both had the same problem so I don´t think it´s a hardware problem.
    Any tipps? 
    Should I leave the notebooks running 1-2 hours alone, so that windows can optimize himself?
    Please help!
    Best wishes from Bavaria!
    Thomas

    Hello,
    Thomas:  Have you checked to see if any of the programs that always run at startup which were installed with Adobe Creative Suite, Microsoft Office and MindManager can be disabled without affecting the function of the programs?  If so, try temporarily disabling them using the System Configuration Utility (filename:  MSCONFIG.EXE) and see if there is any change in the computer's performance.
    Jim:  One thing I have noticed about all anti-virus programs is that they do not seem to perform very well when installed on a system which had other anti-virus software on it unless the previously-installed anti-virus program was thoroughly removed.  Most anti-virus vendors offer a "manual" uninstall program to remove any orphaned programs, services, file system filter drivers, registry entries and other stuff which may have been left on the system after "normal" uninstallation.  Try downloading the latest version of your existing anti-virus, the manual uninstallation program for your old anti-virus program, uninstall your current anti-virus program, run the manual uninstallation program for your old anti-virus program, and then (re)install your new anti-virus program.  Chances are, system performance will now be greatly improved.

  • SLOWWW Internal HD access, question please

    Hi all...
    I have a Power Mac 3.0Ghz and 4 gig of RAM
    New Leopard install.
    Have done all the house keeping, spring cleaning, cache cleaning etc., and still,
    the OS takes sometimes a good 10 seconds to bring up my internal hard drives, all 3 of them.
    Less then 60 pct full.
    Any ideas please?
    Thank you again.

    Hi Elliot. Well that's funny, usually that's the very first thing I would do but for some reason I have not since rebuilding my HD and reinstalling all my apps.
    I'm doing this now and will drop a note.
    Again, thank you very much for taking the time.

  • Slowww internet

    I have an iMac G5 wirelessly connected to the internet, and for some reason some (quite a few, actually) pages load extremely slow on it. These same webpages, however, load fast on my MacBook, sister's iBook, and my mom's old Compaq, but for whatever reason, I have to constantly refresh to get pages to load on my iMac
    I've tried emptying my cache, different browsers, and connecting it directly to the router, but still, pages load slowly. But my internet connection isn't slow, otherwise. Bars are full so it's not a poor reception and everything downloads fast, it's just certain web pages that, again, load perfectly fine on all our other computers.
    It's very irritating.

    You don't say what version of OS you are running or whether you have the latest versions of your browsers.You might want to reinstall the latest OS update, using a combo version. You can use an app like OnyX to perform a deep cleaning of your caches, set your browser not to load favicons and see if any of that helps,
    please let us know,
