REGEXP help

Hi everybody,
I have a small regexp problem. I want to remove from the end of a VARCHAR field three different patterns:
WITH test_data AS
  SELECT 'INITIAL' as S FROM dual UNION ALL
  SELECT 'INI.TI.AL.PAT' as S FROM dual UNION ALL
  SELECT 'INITI.AL.PAT.DIM' as S FROM dual UNION ALL
  SELECT 'INITI.AL.PATDIM' as S FROM dual
SELECT s,
       regexp_replace(s, '^(.)(\.[PAT])$', '\1')
FROM test_data;If the field ends with '.PAT', '.PAT.DIM' or .'PATDIM' I need to remove them. And I don't find a way using regular expression. Any help?
The previous query should return
INTIAL
INI.TI.AL
INITI.AL
INITI.ALI'm using Oracle 10g
Thanks,

WITH test_data AS
  SELECT 'INITIAL' as S FROM dual UNION ALL
  SELECT 'INI.TI.AL.PAT' as S FROM dual UNION ALL
  SELECT 'INITI.AL.PAT.DIM' as S FROM dual UNION ALL
  SELECT 'INITI.AL.PATDIM' as S FROM dual
SELECT s
      ,REGEXP_REPLACE(s,'(.*)(.PAT|.PAT.DIM|.PATDIM)$','\1')
FROM test_data;hth

    Hi All,
    My data is coming the below way(sample data provided) so I would like to join with both tables using deliveryzipcodes.zipcode with POSTALCODES.postalcode.
    I have not provided all the columns but join should be zipcode with postalcode
    CREATE TABLE Deliveryzipcodes( city,zipcode VARCHAR2(50));
    INSERT INTO deliveryzipcodes (city,ZIPCODE) values('UK','SK8,SK3,SK7,M22,M23');
    INSERT INTO deliveryzipcodes (city,ZIPCODE) values( 'CA''DY1,DY2,DY3,DY4,DY5,B69,WV14');
    commit;
    CREATE TABLE POSTALCODEs( postalcode VARCHAR2(50));
    INSERT INTO POSTALCODEs(postalcode) values('SK3');
    INSERT INTO POSTALCODEs(postalcode) values('SK8');
    INSERT INTO POSTALCODEs (postalcode) values('SK7');
    INSERT INTO POSTALCODEs(postalcode) values('M22');
    INSERT INTO POSTALCODEs (postalcode) values('M23');

    Any help would be appreciated

    Hi,
    I have a strange problem with regular expressions..
    This is the data I have :
    TRICOR (FENOFIBRATE) 145 MG TABLET
    ALLOGRAFT STRIP TRICORTICAL ILIUM FREEZE DRIED 2.2CMX45MM
    I have a requirement which needs only the 1st value ( as in the second value tricor is appended by alpha character)..
    This is just a sample value from a field..I have so many values like this..So I don't want to hardcode it ..
    I am using the following one..but it gives an error..
    Select * from a
    where not(regexp_like(name,name||'[A-Za-z]{0,1}');
    CREATE TABLE A (NAME VARCHAR2(200));
    INSERT INTO A VALUES ('TRICOR (FENOFIBRATE) 145 MG TABLET');
    INSERT INTO A VALUES ('ALLOGRAFT STRIP TRICORTICAL ILIUM FREEZE DRIED 2.2CMX45MM');
    COMMIT;
    CAN U JUST DO THIS WITHOUT HARDCODING THE WORD TRICOR IN THE SEARCH CRITERION?
    Thanks

    I hope this will do it:
    with a as
    (select  'TRICOR (FENOFIBRATE) 145 MG TABLET' name from dual union all
    select 'fjdaskl TRICOR' from dual union all
    select 'fjdaskl TRICOR-' from dual union all
    select 'fjdaskl TRICORa' from dual union all
    select 'ALLOGRAFT STRIP TRICORTICAL ILIUM FREEZE DRIED 2.2CMX45MM' from dual)
    Select * from a
    where regexp_like(upper(name),'(^|[^A-Z]+)TRICOR([^A-Z]+|$)'); If you won't use upper then you have to add 'a-z' in the regular expressions:
    with a as
    (select  'TRICOR (FENOFIBRATE) 145 MG TABLET' name from dual union all
    select 'fjdaskl TRICOR' from dual union all
    select 'fjdaskl TRICOR-' from dual union all
    select 'fjdaskl TRICORa' from dual union all
    select 'ALLOGRAFT STRIP TRICORTICAL ILIUM FREEZE DRIED 2.2CMX45MM' from dual)
    Select * from a
    where regexp_like(name,'(^|[^a-zA-Z]+)TRICOR([^a-zA-Z]+|$)'); Edited by: hm on 27.10.2010 11:05

  • RegExp help please...

    I have the following regular expression:
    <!--[\\s\\n]+?(<IF(.*?)IF>)[\\s\\n]+?-->
    I use it to pull IF statements from a string, one by one. An example of a string i use the regular expression on is:
    <!-- <IF condition="null" value="{pImageOverride}"> -->
    <img src="{$pPubRoot}{sIntervieweeImageOverride}">
    <!-- </IF> -->
    some text
    <!-- <IF condition="not null" value="{pImageOverride}"> -->
    <img src="{$pPubRoot}{pImageOverride}">
    <!-- </IF> -->
    some text
    So it should return each IF statement (with comment tags). Now, the problem. This works on JDK1.2.2 when i use RE (apache regular expression api) however i am upgrading to JDK1.5 and want to use the regular expression api that comes with the JDK but it doesnt work. It does not found any matches. I guess i need to tweak the regular expression somehow but dont know where to start. Any ideas would be appreciated!

    I suspect that this is what you need
    String data = "<!-- <IF condition=\"null\" value=\"{pImageOverride}\"> -->\n" +
                    "<img src=\"{$pPubRoot}{sIntervieweeImageOverride}\">\n" +
                    "<!-- </IF> -->\n" +
                    "some text\n" +
                    "" +
                    "<!-- <IF condition=\"not null\" value=\"{pImageOverride}\"> -->\n" +
                    "<img src=\"{$pPubRoot}{pImageOverride}\">\n" +
                    "<!-- </IF> -->\n" +
                    "some text";
            Pattern p = Pattern.compile("<!--\\s+?(<IF(.*?)IF>)\\s+?-->", Pattern.DOTALL);
            Matcher m = p.matcher(data);
            while (m.find())
                System.out.println(m.group(1));
            }Note - the set \s in [\\s\\n] includes \n so [\\s\\n] can be reduced to \\s .

    Any assistance with getting this script to use the leading zero if there is one would be greatly appreciated.

    The zeros aren't there because they never were there. Your loop starts at 0 and that could be a page number. To pad your page numbers to three-digit numbers, replace this line:
    myFilePath = myFolder + "/" + "MyTest_" + (my_suffix + myCounter) + ".pdf";
    with this one:
    myFilePath = myFolder + "/" + "MyTest_" + (my_suffix + pad(myCounter)) + ".pdf";
    and add the following function somewhere at the end of your script:
    function pad (n) {
        return ("00000"+n).slice(-3);

    I have some student responses and the valid values are +/-/O(alphabet)/P and spaces at the end of the sting only not in the middle.Are you combining the responses to several qeustions in one VARCHAR2 column? It might be better to have a separate row for each question.
    As per my requirement the record number 2 3,4 should be listed from the query but I am getting only one (record 3). What exactly is your requirement? Are you trying to find the rows where student_response contains any of the forbidden characters, or where it contains a space anywhere but at the end of the string?
    Can we use REG_EXPYes, but it's easy enough, and probably more efficient, to not use regular expressions in this case:
    Here's one way:
    SELECT     record_number
    ,     student_response
    FROM     x
    WHERE     TRANSLATE ( UPPER ( RTRIM (student_response, ' '))
                , 'X+-OP'
                , 'X'
                )     IS NOT NULL
    ;That is, once you remove trailing spaces and all occurrences of '+', '-', 'O' or 'P', then only the forbidden characters are left, and you want to select the row if there are any of those.
    If you really, really want to use a regular expression:
    SELECT     record_number
    ,     student_response
    FROM     x
    WHERE     REGEXP_LIKE ( RTRIM (student_response)
                  , '[^-+OP]'          -- or '[^+OP-]', but not '[^+-OP]'.  Discuss amongst yourselves
                  , 'i'
    ;but, I repeat, this will probably be slower than the first solution, using TRANSLATE.

    The following is slightly simpler than TRANSLATE:
    SELECT     record_number
    ,     student_response
    FROM     x
    WHERE     RTRIM ( UPPER ( RTRIM (student_response, ' '))
               , '+-OP'
               )          IS NOT NULL
    ;

    thanks for your unnecessary comments.Ah, you're the one that was confusing some beginner with bad advice about a classpath issue: I seem to remember I left that person for you to help, yet in the end you gave up and the beginner didn't get his/her problem solved. Like I said in that thread: you were only "muddying the water". You seem to be doing exactly the same here!
    I'll not get into the fact the OP might better be of using an html parser, but, let's look at your proposed regex:
    "[<]?[A-Za-z]+[0-9]*[>]?"This is why it's wrong and/or a bad proposal:
    - '<' is not a regex meta character, so, there's no need to put it inside a character class;
    - by making '<' and '>' reluctant, they can be omitted: something that is not correct: all tags must have an opening '<' and closing '>';
    - the OP mentioned s/he wanted to match tags with spaces before the closing tag: something your regex does not handle;
    Combining all these mistakes, the following Strings will be accepted by your regex:
    "a"
    "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"
    "h6666"
    "<a"
    "December2008"all of which are not correct tags. And it wouldn't match:
    "<h1 >"which should have been accepted.
    Please think before posting next time.
    Thanks.Ronakgpatel, care to comment? Maybe admit your mistake? Probably not: you seem to be having trouble admitting you're wrong in many of the threads you participate.

    The problem is that it does not validates when i have only 4 chars and it validates when i enter more then 32 chars.
    What am I missing?Thank you

  • My MAC is running very slow and i am a complete novice and don't know what to do. i have had my Mac since 2008 and its probably in a mess. if you can help i would be grateful. EtreCheck version: 1.9.15 (52) Report generated 8 September 2014 09:09:26

    My MAC runs very slow. Rainbow wheel every time i try to go somewhere. Im a complete MAC novice. Only really use it for iTunes and email. the odd document here and there. The odd spreadsheet. Was brought up on a PC. I would imagine my system is in  mess. I think i downloaded that Mackeeper which i have just discovered was not a good idea. I found a thread about EtreCheck and it suggested i posted the report of my machine which i have done.I only have 2GB of space. Not sure how much i have left. My wife keeps putting photos on here like they are going out of fashion. Bought the machine in 2008 because everybody said you have a MAC. I've never really got to grips with it but at least it worked. Now it does not run very well at all. That spinning wheel is driving me mad. HELP please, never ever used a forum light this either so please go gentle on me. Cheers Paul

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    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.

  • Help on regular expression

    hi all
    i need to validate telephone number , and i tried to use the following expression :
    "[\\d][\\d][\\d]-[\\d][\\d][\\d][\\d]" or
    "[0-9][0-9][0-9]-[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]" they did not seem to work. can anyone provide some help on this? thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Can anyone provide me the regular expression for the following?
    1. String Should contain 7 letters (can include '*') followed by 5 alphanumeric characters i.e.5 numbers/letters
    For this one, I've written reg expn = ([a-zA-Z]*[*]*[a-zA-Z]*){7}\\w{5}
    But, somehow this is not working...can anyone pleaseeeee explain wots wrong with this one or give me alternate solution???????
    2. String should contain 7 numbers or 7 digits consisting of 1 letter & 6 numbers in varying order, no spaces.
    For this one, reg expn = (\\d{7})|((\\d*[a-zA-Z]\\d*){7})
    But this is also not working...... Please help!!!!!
    3. String should contain 9 numbers or 8 alphanumeric characters i.e. 8 numbers/letters or 13 numbers
    This one looks really simple, but still (\\d{9})|(\\w{8})|(\\d{13}) is not working.....Please helpppp
    I'll appreciate if any Regular Expresion expert can resolve my problem!!! Also, I'm using gnu-regexp-1.0.8.jar as we r not using JDK 1.4!!!! We've to use only this library, no other choice...so, please suggest!!!!!!

  • My Mid 2007 24" iMac has been a bit laggy on Yosemite and getting worse every day, so I went to the Apple Support pages on Apples website looking for help and thought I'd found some. This is what I did and it made everything 100 times worse :(

    So here is what I found and what I did to try to alleviate the RAM eating upgrade named Yosemite. This guy has helped quite a few people, you can read all the comments and I gave it several tries this morning.
    Oct 23, 2014 10:59 AM
    I post this hoping to help those users who, like me, are experiencing high CPU usage and massive memory leaking with OS X core services and apps, leading to slow performance and battery drain.
    I've tried everything mentioned, but found the right combination of steps to follow. I've tried this with seven different Apple computers, including mine, and has worked well so far. I applied this method yesterday to give these process a 24 hour window to fail again, so far everything good.
    First step: disconnect any external or secondary monitors, if any is present. The video memory allocation leak can also happen if you have a system with an integrated card, like Intel, with no external monitors attached.
    Second step: Shut down your machine and enter Safe Mode (press shift once you turn on your computer again, more info below). Once you're there, fix your disk permissions.
    Guide of how to access Safe Mode: OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
    Third step: From Safe Mode turn off your machine again and reset your System Management Controller (SMC). There are different methods, depending on machine, to do this. To know what method applies to yours read the following guide.
    Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    Fourth step: Once your machine completes a full boot after resetting the SMC turn it off again and reset your PRAM (THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP, BUT THE PREVIOUS ONES ARE ESSENTIAL FOR THIS ONE TO WORK). The PRAM stores small bits of data that indicate our Apple computer how to interact with the devices connected to it, including monitors and video cards. It also affects software.
    To reset it you should hold the OPTION, COMMAND, P and R keys in your keyboard immediately after turning on your machine again.You'll hear the start up chime, continue pressing the keys until the machine boots and the chime starts A SECOND TIME, then release. IF YOUR YOSEMITE INSTALLATION LOCKS UP AT A BLACK SCREEN AFTER THIS, DONT PANIC! It's normal, just turn off your computer and let it boot again.
    More info about PRAM: OS X Mavericks: Reset your computer’s PRAM
    Voila, reconnect your external displays and enjoy your system.

    I hope to hear from anyone even to knock me in the head, lol. Thanks in advance and I'll be around trying to figure this out.

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    Don't be put off by the 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 act on 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.

    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.

  • Need help with a slow mid-2009 MBP

    Hello - I have read various threads on the subject of slow running MBP's and have attached Etrecheck results. I am running Yosemite and have the latest updates (as of today at least!). I don't seem to have any of the problem software that others have suggested removing - but am sure there is something I am probably missing. My MBP is going slower and slower by the day - especially if I want to use Lightroom, then it comes to a screeching halt. I do seem to be able to use Safari and Word at the same time, but they tend to get pretty slow after a time as well. Any and all recommendations greatly appreciated! Please note though, that I do not have the ability to upgrade to SSD at the moment, but maybe can manage new and increased RAM (I think my only options are to get 2 4x4's or a single 8?) if thats the only option. Cheers!
    EtreCheck version: 2.0.11 (98)

    First, get rid of "Memory Clean," which is at best useless. That alone might solve your problem. If not, see below.
    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    Don't be put off by the 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 act on 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.
