How to correct or fix slow imac on start up or when switching user. Blue Screen will stay on for 3-5 minutes.

How do I fix a slow imac on start up and when switching user? The blue screen will stay on for 3-5 minutes.
Thanks

How much free space do you have on your hard disk? And have you ever performed a backup & clean install after an OS X upgrade?

SLOW IMAC 2.4GhzINTEL CORE 2, 1 GB MEMORY 10.6

I HAVE SLOW IMAC 2.4GhzI NTEL CORE 2, 1 GB MEMORY OS LION.
DO I NEED MORE RAM?

Lion requires a minimum of 2 GBs of RAM. It won't run in 1 GB. So, yes, you need more RAM. At least 4 GBs if your model supports it.

Slow iMac - Apple help is so crap

Me again
My iMac supposed to be reliable and fast. Well it is not.
I spend most of my time staring at colorful spinning ball even when performing basic tasks like logging in or opening Safari web page (35 MB broadband is a joke with my iMac performance).
Been on the phone to Apple (have purchased Apple care) and done restarting, reinstalling OS X, checking zillions of statuses, everything is fine, apart from the fact my iMac is very slow.
I have started recording on my video camera my iMac performance to show the great inventors from Apple how easy they took my £1700 and delivered crap. Can very bad performance of 20 months iMac can be explained? oh, and yes Apple Genius (yes Genius) informed me my iMac is old.........
Attaching history of problems........
If that was a PC i wouldnt be surprised
Ok. This one is tricky> to me.
Last two weeks my iMac (14 months old) with latest Leopard has started playing up - freezing, waking itself up, spinning ball for 6 minutes to open Safari etc etc etc). Eventually I ended up cold restarting it 5 times per day.
I have Mac Protection Plan so when I had enough I called Apple today. The first guy I spoke tried to convince me that it was normal behavior (SIC!!!), and when I disagreed to suggest I need to archive current system by holding C key and inserting installation DVDs. I have been asked to call again after installation finishes to be guided what to next.
So when I did the other guy was puzzled why I was asked to do this and came with an idea that my problems are due to Intego anti virus software I had installed as recommended when buying my iMac. This time I was advised to reinstall Leopard from beginning and wipe everything out. I was told to create a folder and move all my important files (iTunes, Iphoto etc) and back them up using Time Machine and restore after. Easy I thought. But after archiving the system my Time Machine says it cant be mounted as the back up volume cant be found and I dont know how to sort it and back up only a folder. Plus I fear to loose 300GB of files.
Sorry guys I bought iMac for simplicity, but to me its Chineese. I am about to throw my iMac through the window.
Any idea?

Aside from relying on Intego, the second Apple guy was probably on target with his suggestions. To fix your system, I'd ask you a few questions:
1. Did you Archive and Install? With a full install, you'd lose all of your data, but Archive and Install keeps your personal apps, etc would remain otherwise untouched.
2. Have you done any diagnostics, like Disk First Aid or Onyx? This helps some basic issues become they become problems.
3. What kind of external backup drive did you use with Time Machine? Did you restore before or after your attempted Archive and Install? How large is your external backup drive?
You may have answered one or two of these questions before, but the more we know, the better chance at success.

Hey. thank you for taking time to help me.
Few answers , hope that helps
1. I have completed archive and install. When I click on Macinstosh HD icon I can see folder called: Previous System. However when I completed installing and logged in, my system was the same (folders and files unchanged).
2. Done Onyx and Disk First Aid, also trashed all Intego files and restart. Even worse. After 5 minutes iMac freezes and goes crazy. Bluetooth has gone from Hardware.
3.I use Time Capsule with TM. Time Capsule is 1TB.
Hope that helps

HI,
First, delete the anti virus software from your iMac.
Next, check the hard disk for errors.
Insert the installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger and later) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
Select your start up disk and click Restart
While you have the Disk Utility app open, look at the bottom of the window. You will see Capacity and Available. Make sure the available disk space never falls below 10% of the total drive.
Get Cocktail and run maintenance.
"waking itself up" Try resetting the SMC. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1543

Hi there.
I am afraid things gone worse since yesterday.
I managed to run Disk Utility and everything is fine, SMART is verified too.
At the moment my iMac is flashing grey screen at me. When is stop, it doesnt recognise my wired mouse.
The cursor is moving, but when I try to click on anything... nothing...just a bing sound.

You might want to keep Activity Monitor open and when your Mac slows down look at that and see what process might be causing the slow down.

Slow iMac (also after fresh install)

Hello,
I am helping a friend wit his iMac mid 2011 (intel core i5, 4 GB RAM and 500 HDD). She had 10.6.8 and suddenly the iMa became very slow in every operation (boot, finder, mail, everything). She called me and I tried to debug the problem. Nothing was using much CPU o RAM and so I updated the iMac to Mavericks.
Always the same. Then I fresh installed but the iMac was slow also during the recovery mode (loading colourful spin) and while erasing the disk. Reinstalled the OS and same problem. It works for a few minutes and then it gets stuck on simple operatios. Really frustrating.
Today, again fresh installed but always the same problem.
Very weird because the RAM usage is never over 1 GB and the CPU too.
What could it be? Hardware problem?
Thanks a lot!

How much free storage space?
Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info > Storage
Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.

A slow iMac running 10.6.8 - potential hardware trouble

Two weeks ago, my computer was operating perfectly well (especially considering how I had been totally ignorant of even the most basic of maintenence procedures). I rarely have a vast number of applications running (five or six at the most - not enough to trouble 4GB of memory), the hard drive has about 400GB free out of 1TB, and I turn it off at the end of every day, so it had never really had any slow-down at all.
   Then I turned it on one morning earlier this month, and it took about an hour to reach the desktop; every application I tried to run was greatly reduced in speed, and most spent several minutes showing the SBBOD or stating "Application Not Responding" on the Dock. The iMac is currently still functioning, albeit at a much reduced rate. I've tried to repair disk permissions through the Disk Utility app, but these too have a habit of crashing; I downloaded Onyx which seemed to succeed in some basic clean-up functions, but to no avail.
   I'll admit that I'm in way over my head here, so apologies if I seem ridiculously ignorant or foolish: my first thought was that it might be a virus, so I activated my long-dormant Windows partition via Boot Camp, which seemed to be affected even worse than the OS X section. I assumed that viruses only affect software, so that seemed to discount that possibility. I then ran four Apple Hardware Tests (three off the computer's own power, one off the Application Install disc), and each time the bar got to about 95% full and then froze. I left if for hours until I was convinced it had actually failed to finish the test: the mouse cursor was lagging and the screen had frozen, so I couldn't even press the "Stop Testing" button. Since it never actually finished the test, I never got an error code, which would have been useful; nevertheless, I am pretty much resolved to go to a local computer store in town and ask if he can check it over for me. If possible, however, I'd like to have at least some idea of what might be wrong, rather than just dropping the iMac on the counter and leaving him to figure it out from scratch.
   Does anybody have any suggestions for what might have caused so sudden a decline? A housemate of mine said it might be something wrong with the power transformer, so that the RAM simply isn't getting the energy it needs to run properly, and he's fairly knowledgeable about computers and electronics - does that sound possible to anybody else? Are there any other steps I have missed that might help before I go and fork out some cash?
   Thanks for reading,
Tom

Run Apple Hardware Test in Extended Mode, do this a MINIMUM of 2X probably 3X. If you get error codes please post but if you do the next stop is the local Apple Store or AASP. If you have not backed up first BACKUP NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Slow iMac, kernel_task using 1GB memory

My iMac has been running slower and slower over the past year or so. The problem seems to come and go, but I have been noticing increasing tendency for applications to hang, or to get stuck for minutes with spinning beach balls. I've been carrying forward software and installations going all the way back to OS X 10.0 (from previous machines) and I probably have made some poor choices regarding installing third-party software in the past.
I've seen some very helpful advice in this forum given to others (for example, here) so I thought I would post my problem here.
I've been watching Activity Monitor, and the only thing I've noticed that seems consistently out of place is that kernel_task is using about 1GB of RAM. (It was using about 2GB of RAM until I uninstalled Virtual Box, which clearly was a big part of my problems).
I am fully backed up redundantly (locally via Time Machine and remotely via BackBlaze). I'm holding off upgrading to Yosemite until I can clean this issue up (unless you think it would help).
Below you will find posted two diagnostic reports. The first is EtreCheck, followed by the results of the Terminal script posted by Linc Davis in this thread
I hope that's sufficient to help the geniuses reading this forum give me some advice. Thank you in advance for your help.

Try a restart.
Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
Try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

Mail activity window "writing changes to disk" slows iMac

So like many others, Mail is working very slowly with gmail. I even took my iMac to the genius bar, and I was told to just let the Mail program run. That once all the messages were copied to the iMac in All Mail then it would be done. Problem is it does this process every day. While this activity is ongoing it dramatically slows the computer. Here is what the Mail activity window looks like. It greets me each morning when I open it up.
Why does the mail program have to go through that process each day? Basically, I have to drink a cup of coffee and wait until it's done.
I'm surprised Apple would release an update with so many problems in native programs. (My Safari always crashes when I quit but I'll leave that for another day).

I've been having the same issue on my MBP since upgrading to Mavericks. Multiple times per day Mail seems to re-sync everything across my 8 Google Apps accounts (happening right now).
Nothing has resolved the issue, but here's what I've tried:
Verify All Mail settings in Google
Let it perform a full sync
Rebuild inboxes
Repair inboxes
Remove and re-add everything (they're all IMAP, so not a big deal)
Remove all Google accounts from the machine through System Preferences
Delete the entire ~/Library/Mail/ folder
Re-add accounts through System Preferences
Open Mail
Let it sync everything
Try with 1 account active versus all 8
And a few other things, I think, that I can't recall. I upgraded to 10.9 the day it was released and it's happened every day since no matter what I do.
Mavericks is great but Mail has some serious issues. I understand that Google has implemented some non-standard IMAP tricks that need to be accounted for, but I don't have any problems on my iPhone (iOS 7) with these exact same accounts -- so someone has it right in some way somewhere.
Attaching a screenshot of what it's doing right now along with the about window.

Is there a fix for my intolerably slow iMac?

I will greatly appreciate any help provided by the community - whether it's harsh reality or a miraculous fix.
My beloved 24" iMac (Early 2009, 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, NVIDIA GeForce 9400 256 MB) - which ran like a dream all the way through 10.6.xx has been booted back to 2001 in terms of speed. Even the simplest of things like opening Mail, launching Chrome or even copying files bring up the dreaded rainbow wheel and sometimes take 3-5 minutes to launch and return keyboard and mouse control to me. Photoshop and Aperture are virtually unusable. A simple crop in Photoshop has caused a total system hang and working with any file over say 20MB in size becomes a game of patience, waiting and resisting the urge to put my fist through the glass out of frustration.
I'm a Mac user since 1993 and I've never been forced to downgrade the OS. I've either ponied up and bought a newer model, or refused to upgrade the OS after learning a particular OS rendered my model unusable. Well, I received poor information this time and this iMac went from a graphic and web production machine to being a glorified web browser (and even that is slow, jerky and unreliable).
Is there a cure for my woes short of trying to find my original install DVD and retrograding the entire thing back to 10.6? I'm loathe to do this becaue this will render as useless several programs I use regularly - Coda for example and all of my Apple apps - iPhoto, Aperture, and who knows what else. Based on the fact that I try to keep all my software current at all times, it could start an endless backward spiral that makes the situation even worse than it is already.
I am not in a position to upgrade with a new OS on the horizon and the current iMac crop aging as well - in fact, now would be perhaps the worst time to jump to a new machine. Nor do I wish to lug this beast over to the Apple store and waste an afternoon waiting for a Genius to tell me to buy a new system.
I simply need to make the right choice this time instead of the wrong choice, which was installing Lion, and I could use some advice.
most sincerely,
Dave Bias

Well seeing as I'm running Lion on 2 GB of RAM, I can't see how upgrading the RAM will make that much of a difference. If you are seeing launch times in minutes, it probably indicates your cache got corrupted by some third party cache cleaning software. To see if some corruption can be fixed, first backup your data:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-1992
Then boot in safe mode, holding the shift key. If issues persist in safe mode, run the hardware test that came with your Mac.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303081
And if that is unrevealing, and booting into safe mode doesn't solve anything, and you are backed up, try repairing the directory by:
1. Booting into the restore partition with command-R.
2. Selecting the installer's Utilities menu.
3. Selecting Disk Utility
4. Selecting First Aid
5. Selecting the boot partition.
6. Click on repair disk (not repair permissions)
Do NOT proceed with any install itself. Just quit the install program
If the disk is not able to be repaired, purchase Alsoft Disk Warrior, and boot of that to repair the directory.
If it is able to be repaired, and the machine is still slow, I think you may have run into some RAM that is bad, and need to replace it, not add to it.
If Disk Warrior can't repair the hard disk, replace the hard disk itself.

Slow iMac and Time machine won't recognize iMac hard drive

I have an older iMac (2.16GHz Intel) that is upgraded to OSX10.6.7. Recently it has been running very slow (although it did not seem to correlate with any particular install that I know of). I have looked at the Activity Monitor and cannot find anything that is consuming vast amounts of memory (although I can't say that I really know what I'm looking for exactly, just no high numbers). I did a Safe Boot and it is still really slow there (EXAMPLE of slow is taking several minutes to open a program or taking 27 hours to download my pictures (which only took 13 minutes on my MacBook)). I know my iMac could use more memory (1G), but the slow problem is there even if only running one program. I can't find a particular pattern to it, it just hangs up and then comes back most of the time. It did however start shutting itself down recently. I finally got into disk utility (I've been trying to run disk utility and it usually goes into an eternal spin that I can't even force quit - have to hard boot). So from disk utility I ran verify disk in first aid - it says "the volume Macintosh HD appears to be ok." I"m not sure what else I'm supposed to do in here either. So my first question is Does anyone have any other suggestions for the slowness? Second, in the meantime I'm desperately trying to back up my data on the time machine that I stupidly have never set up as a back up. I can manually put files one at a time over there, but if I try to use it as a time capsule (system preferences, time capsule on) my hard drive does not show up as one of the options???? My external drive and the data that is already on the time capsule show up, but not my iMac hard drive. So my second question is How do I get my time machine to see my hard drive or is there another way to get my files to move over there? I realize I'm in trouble, any help would be greatly appreciated. I've tried to provide as much info as possible. Maybe there is something obvious I'm missing.

My own response, or rather an update: I took the computer up to the Genius Bar - my hard drive is bad. They are going to try to rescue my data. For those of you reading this with a similar problem, make an appointment and go to the Apple Store if you can. Mike, my personal "genius" for this encounter, said that stressing the machine when the hard drive is going bad just risks damaging it more. If you potentially have a hardware issue, take it and let them determine what is wrong. They have tools and diagnostics most of us wouldn't know how to use if we read about them here - and they have ways of retrieving data (I hope) that most of us do not have. Please note that disk utility said my hard drive was ok, but the diagnostics they did showed that in fact my hard drive was much less than ok, but it was still "mounting" hence the disk utility reporting it was ok. It is over an hour drive for me to get to the Apple store, and I only wish I had gone sooner.

Can anyone help with a very slow iMac?

I'm getting increasingly frustrated by this computer, it takes an age to start up and then the processor makes it's noise for quite some time before allowing me to do anything. Often the beachball is whirling around too. I'm pretty useless when it comes to computers. I ran the etrecheck software and have this info from it. Can anyone offer any suggestions please?

You only have 2GB of RAM, which is not enough to run OS X 10.10 smoothly (it's the bare minimum requirement to run it at all). Consider buying more at http://eshop.macsales.com (there are other vendors as well). Find the correct RAM for your model by searching for your iMac's model identifier - iMac8,1. Also look at their installation videos.
You have several failed Apple launch agents, you may need to re-install OS X to fix that. Boot the computer while holding down the Command ⌘ and R keys at the same time. This will boot to the Recovery partition. Choose the reinstall OS X option.

SLOW Imac and Activity Monitor won't work

My imac has slowed down and Safari keeps crashing and everything is slow. I tried to look in Activity monitor but when I try to get in it tells my that 'Activity monitor doesn't have to correct file permissions' and to fix it with Disk Utility, so I tried that but nothing. I have a 232 gb hard drive with 97 gb free. HELP, I am not very smart with computers so laments terms etc wud be great. thanks

New iMac w/10.5.6? I think not. Update your My Settings for the computer and OS. As for speeding up Macs, see:
