Slow after make update to 10.5.2

After I made update for Leopard 10.5.1 to 10.5.2 I get slow, that slow come when system login to profile, the Dock items appear immediately but the Top bar and desktop items take more than 5 min to appear and that is very bad, so is there solution for this or I must reinstall leopard again, I read a lot of post but I didn't find solution for my problem

Have you opened Activity Monitor in the Applications/Utilities folder to see what your CPU is doing?

  • Everything is so slow after I updated to 10.7.2...Help:(

    I have a Macbook pro 15''.. Bought this Aug.
    Everything is so slow after I updated to 10.7.2 .....
    Especially now it takes me 1 min to turn on my laptop... which used need only 10 sec. So does Turn off...before update it is 2 sec, now it is 30 sec...
    What should I do to make it faster?
    Thanks.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software -- potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions -- they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
    These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
    Below are four lines of text in monospaced type, which are UNIX shell commands. They’re harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of running these commands, search this site for other discussions in which they’ve been used without any report of ill effects.
    Some of the commands will line-wrap in your browser, but each one is really just 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, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
    To begin, launch the Terminal application; e.g., by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search.
    Step 1
    Copy or drag -- do not type -- the line below into the Terminal window, then press return:
    kextstat -kl | awk ' !/apple/ { print $6 $7 } '
    Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.)
    Step 2
    Repeat with this line:
    sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk ' !/0x|apple|com\.vix|edu\.|org\./ { print $3 } '
    This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning.
    Step 3
    launchctl list | sed 1d | awk ' !/0x|apple|edu\.|org\./ { print $3 } '
    Step 4
    ls -1A {,/}Library/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Sta}* 2> /dev/null
    Important: If you synchronize with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, change it to something like “[email protected]” before posting.
    Remember, this is all drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste, whichever you prefer -- no typing, except your password.
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • Blackberry Z10 became extremely slow after OS update to version 10.3.1.2243

    Hi,
    My Blackberry Z10 became extremely slow after OS update to version 10.3.1.2243. For example it sends text message 10-15 seconds after send button has been hit.
    Can not answer the phone when a caller is calling (answer slide interface is unrespnsovie), if I want to launch any application screen turns black and nothing happens, etc.
    Does anyone experience similar issues?
    Thank you.
    Michal.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    A quick read of this site will answer your final question quite clearly. The "fix" depends on several factors, but given what you describe I recommend you immediately update, via AutoLoader, to the most recent version (.2582)...some of the prior versions contain some particularly challenging issues, which are reported to be fixed in this version.
    Good luck and let us know!

I always recommend that you treat your BlackBerry like any other computing device, including using a regular backup schedule...click here for an article with instructions.

  • Itunes starts extremely slow after an update of windows 8.1.

    Itunes starts extremely slow after an update of windows 8.1.
    It takes up to 10 minutus.
    If I see the appliction log in event viewer then I see the following errors on the Bonjour service.
    For instance:
      Client application bug: DNSServiceResolve(a8:fa:d8:3a:1e:8f@fe80::aafa:d8ff:fe3a:1e8f._apple-mobdev2._t cp.local.) active for over two minutes. This places considerable burden on the network.
    followed by
      SendWakeupPacket error: sent -1 bytes: 10065
    What can this be?
    Already thanks,
    John

    I did all the step with save mode and that didn't gave the same result.
    Then I created a new account and there itunes started up normally.
    So I contued with the user section.
    I removed the itunes directory from
    c:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
    This gave the same result in not starting up.
    Then I removed the itunes directory from
    c:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
    The a popup appears that the Bonjour Service has been disabled.
    I looked in services and saw that is was still running.
    But I tried to restart this service and it took a long time to stop this service.
    Even if I selected restart the Bonjour Service didn't start.
    Manually starting was not a problem.
    Clicking OK on the popup let itunes start quickly. And closing and starting it again was also quickly.
    So Matt thanks for your answer.
    If it happens again I have to see if it was the removing of the itunes directory from roaming or restarting the Bonjour Service.

  • Safari super slow after latest update to 10.9.1.  Please help.  Thanks.

  • Mobile data extremely slow after iOS update 8.1.3

    After I updated to iOS 8.1.3, my data speed works like at 2G speed. My phone says its still has LTE, but it's definitely not. Even when I turn off the LTE, and my phone is connected to 3G, it's still incredibly slow. I've also tried restoring the phone, turning on and off data roaming, and of course restarting my phone countless times. I have net10, which runs on AT&T towers in my area. I used to have iOS 8.1.2 before I updated. I'm preety tech savvy, but I haven't been able to fix this. It's extremely annoying and frustrating to have such slow internet since I'm away from wifi for most of the day. Any help?

    So I called Net10 today and this time the customer representive that I spoke to knew what to do. They basically ended up resetting my data connection and it was good to go afterwards. 

  • HP p6230a runs slow after bios update - Getting error BIODHD-8 on Diagnostic Tools

    After bios update my desktop runs so painfully slow it is unworkable.  Disk drive seems to be constantly hammered by processes that don't appear on task manager.  Running 64 bit windows 7 (sp1).  Running the diagnostic tools prior to boot up comes up with error code BIOHD-8 - A SMART test failed on the drive - please contact HP Support.  Ideally would like to get previous version of bios as machine was running well before update. 

    I will ask my HP Employee Expert colleagues about this internally. It will take a while for them to respond.
    the BIODHD-8 error code means your harddrive is failing and must be replaced.
    Back up everything that you possibly can before it fails and no longer boots up into Windows .
    is your notebook still within the standard warranty period of one year? A notebook hard disk is a warranty replaceable item.(no cost to you while within warranty)

  • ITunes Store Slow After New Update...

    After downloading the new iTunes update, the iTunes store is incredibly slow! It also took away the feature of sorting the Top 100 songs by release date. I used this feature frequently to find hot new music. Can I download one of the older versions? Someone help :/

    After the update iTunes is extremly SLOW. Prior to the update I was able to rent movies with a total download time of less than one hour and begin watching it in 5 minutes without problems. After the update it tells me it will take TWO DAYS to download. Even on the apple tv downloads are that slow. At this rate it would be quicker to get a blueray disk mailed to my door from netflix!!!! Apple please fix your itune store issues

  • Screen sharing slow after recent update (june 2012)

    I have installed the latest update that Apple posted a few days ago on multipl computers.  It seems that after the update, screen sharing still works, but instead of bringing up the shared screen in about 5 seconds as it used to, it now takes almost 30 seconds.  This has happened for me on two seperate networks so I believe it is not network related.  Something in the Lion update seems to be culpret.  My 10.6 server machines still can be shared fine.

    I just upgraded all my MACs to Mavericks and have now found this issue.  It isn't unusable but is real close.  I use screenshare every day and all day so this is a real pain.
    Is anyone else seeing this?  Is it worth my while to try VNC?  Is it reasonable to think it may perform better?
    Thanks!

    Firstly ...
    Before you buy anything, first make sure your Mac is compatible.
    Minimum specs for Snow Leopard.  Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard -   Read the Technical Specifications
    Buying Snow leopard from Apple.        Last I read, you must call them (1-800-MY-APPLE). It is $29 plus tax for family pack and $19 plus tax for a single.  You can also buy through your National Apple help number.
    Once you have it you must update using the ...
    Combo updater for Snow Leopard.      Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
    Hope this is what you wanted.

  • MacBook Air painfully slow after Yosemite update

    Dear all,
    I've updated my Macbook Air (2011) to Yosemite in order to make it compatible with Apple TV.
    Since doing this everything is VERY slow, not just slightly slow but VERY slow.
    I was advised to buy more memory - but it doesn't seem possible to purchase extra memory for a MacBook Air.
    I would really like to take a step backwards and change back to my previous OS - is there any way of doing this?
    I don't mind not using Apple Tv with my Mac as long as it goes back to working normally.
    Thanks and sorry if this question has already been posted.

  • Mac is extremely slow after yosemite update, really need help. (Etrecheck inside).

    After recently installing yosemite my mac been painfully unresponsive and slow. I cannot boot up in normal mode, i'm currently in safe mode.
    What I have tried so far and what I know:
    Initially thought filevault was the issue, I disabled encryption and now it says "decryption is paused" and hasn't resumed in days. Potentially is the issue.
    I run a hardware diagnostic test using the hardware check within the macbook pro (booting up holding D) and the mac didn't identify any hardware issues.
    I reinstalled yosemite (not a clean install) and the issue was not resolved.
    I have completed a backup of my mac so all my data is secure.
    Any help would be great, even just telling me how to turn on filevault will be helpful.

  • DSL connection spotty and slow after security update

    I updated both the latest security patch and firmware for my Intel Mac Mini a few days ago, and since then have had notably slower DSL internet service. Frequent time-outs in locating servers etc. Skype connection is much much worse than before the update(s).
    Anyone have similar experience and/or suggestions?
    Mac Mini 1.66 Intel Core Duo   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    There are two distinct problems that can occur with internet connections, giving two different symptoms.
    If, for example, you click on a link or enter a URL in a browser and it takes ages to start the process of loading the page, but once started it loads reasonably well, the issue is with the DNS lookup. On the other hand, if the browser finds the page and looks ready to start loading it pretty quickly, but then takes ages to render the page, the problem is far more likely to be an issue with data timing out.
    In the situation where there is an apparent delay in locating servers, the problem is most likely related to the DNS settings in the system. DNS (Domain Name Service) is the means by which the system translates the addresses we find easy to remember and work with (such as www.yahoo.com) to the numbering system the internet itself uses (such as 69.147.11.210 in the case of yahoo). When you send your system off looking for an internet resource by name such as yahoo.com, it first checks with whatever DNS server you have told it to use, what the IP number is, and if that DNS server is slow to respond, the process of accessing the page/resource will appear to hang, sometimes for many seconds.
    You can test is the system has a DNS issue by opening a browser and typing http://69.147.11.210 and hitting enter. This should, after a very brief pause, load the Yahoo home page. If doing it this way gives you a markedly faster page access time than usual, go to your network preference pane and open the ethernet configuration (if using ethernet - the airport for wifi or modem for dialup) and in the DNS servers section, manually enter the DNS server addresses used by your ISP. There are usually two or three and they may be listed in the ISP's help pages on the internet, in the documentation that they sent, or in your router.
    Actually any valid DNS server IP addresses will do, so you can actually doa search for DNS server addresses and use any that you find. Bear in mind of course that a DNS server in your own locality, or region will be likely to be quicker to respond than a DNS server on the other side of the world... though not always!
    Give that a try if the problem is with the system accessing a page to begin with.
    If it's that the page loads very slowly once started, the first thing to do is clear the browser's caches (in safari, try 'reset safari' which sets it back to first-used state), which can often help. After that it may be necessary to delve into the depths of the system's IP configuration since some ISPs don't seem to have particularly Mac-friendly service configurations.
