Slow internet on 2012 Mac Book Pro

Over the past 4 months the MacBook pro has been running slow when connected to the internet. The computer itself runs fine. Had installed Yosemite Beta, but the problem was occurring prior to move on Mavericks. Went to the Apple store and there was a hard rest of the computer, no improvement in internet speed.
I run wireless diagnostics which tells me everything is running fine. Another iMac on the network also running well. iPad and iPhones also running well.
OOKLA speed test ping of 29 ms, download speed of 0.52 Mbps and upload of 1.67 Mbps.
On ATT network rated for 54 Mbps.

Slow internet on a mac book pro

I have had an issue with slow wireless and internet for a while but never thought nothing of it but poor service. But the wireless on my imac works perfectly. Some pages load slower that others and streaming videos are choppy. Im not sure whats different between my pro and my imac besides a better airport. Anyone have similar problems or any recommendations? Thanks for the help.

Did you see the patch for 10.5.8 that handles the problem of connections being slower when on battery power than when on A/C? It's here:

My hard drive won't mount on 2012 mac book pro with retina display

The flash drive in my Sept 2012 mac book pro with retina display is not mounted, won't mount, and can't be repaired in disk repair. I need files created right before it failed last night that were not backed up. Can they be salvaged before a new warrantied drive is put in at my request? Also is this failure a common problem?

my mid 2012 mac book pro is running at 6200 rpm how do I lower it

I would open Activity Monitor (Utilities folder) to check and see if there is something using an inordinate amount of CPU cycles......select the CPU tab and click on the drop down menu from the top of that window.....choose (All Processes's).......double or triple %'s....will ramp up the fan...

My brand new mac book pro runs really slow., My brand new mac book pro runs really slow.

I just bought a mac book pro a couple days ago. It was fine the first couple days, but now it runs really slow.

what antivirus are you using?
that might be the one causing your issues - uninstall it and see what happens.
do not install any antivirus software in your Macbook Pro

I've got a 2012 Mac Book Pro that won't let me restore...

I feel like I've tried everything at this point. While using the disk utility, first aid told me that there was an issue with my Macintosh HD that couldn't be fixed (I tried it several times just to be sure). So I tried using the internet recovery, nothing. I would verify my mac, but once I agreed to the terms, there was no HD I could select to install to. The internal recovery HD did the same thing.
As a last resort before taking it in I just decided to erase the entire HD, and that finally worked. Now I'm not sure what to do. I'm running into the same issue trying to re-install the OS (Lion over internet recovery mode). It takes me past the apple verification screen then there's nothing I can select to install to. I have a back up external hard drive, but no idea how to go about restoring from it. Please let me know what might be happening!
Thanks!

Slow boot up in Mac book Pro

Running Leopard with Latest firmware. Have had increasingly slower boot times over the past 3-5 months. Boot times exceeding 3-4 minutes. I have only a couple of programs that load at boot time, and run in the back ground. And in fact have used them since using Tiger OS with no boot problems to speak of. No compatibility issues, w/ Leopard to my knowledge. Boot times just getting longer, Help?

Duplicate fonts were slowing me down on startup. Give this a try. It seems rather low-tech, but it really did the trick for me.
Open FontBook
- You'll see a bullet next to each of your duplicate fonts
Select All your fonts
Click Edit, Resolve Duplicates
Reboot
Let us know if that works.

My 2012 mac book pro died and won't turn on

My battery was at 0% when it went off and when I plugged it in it refused to charge.
I first I thought it was just to socket or my charger then I decided to move to another room and it still didn't work.
I then tried my charger on my sisters laptop and it worked fine . I dont know what is going on the light on the charger is a really faint green.
There is no apple store around me unfortunately .

Hi ..
Make sure to quit all open applications prior to shutting down your Mac.
Not enough free storage space can slow your Mac down.
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.
OS X Tips Where did my Disk Space Go
If there's enough free storage space, open System Preferences > Users & Groups then select the Login Items tab. Remove all items there.
Same with: HD > Library > StartupItems
Then restart your Mac.
And check the startup disk.
Launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utillities
Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Verify Disk (not Verify Disk Permissions)
If Disk Utility reports errors, restart your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys.
From there you should be able to access the built in utilities in OS X Recovery to repair the startup disk and restore OS X.

My Mac Book Pro is running slow

i am having mid 2012 Mac Book Pro 15 after i am running OS X 10.10.1 it takes more time for booting and lags many of the time

Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
4. Reinstall Yosemite: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
            because it is three times faster than wireless.
5. Reinstall Yosemite from Scratch:
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
How to Clean Install OS X Yosemite
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
            because it is three times faster than wireless.

Mac book pro is very very slow/it hangs for even the smallest tasks/even with the lid closed it is still running if it is not completely turned off. Dose any one know what may be wrong ? and how to fix it?

More details about the problem : My computer is a Mid 2012 Mac Book pro 2.9GHz i7 processor with 8GB RAM updated to OS X v10.8.5
- I ran a compleet scan of my computer for any threats ( I used virus barrier express ) and there was nothing identified
- When I oppened the Activiti Monitor there are about 20-30 processes which I do not undersatand they are run under the user "root" 2 in perticular ( Kernel_task & fseventsd ) they both take up a lot of threads and kernel_task is constantly using 1.2 GB of "real memory" which is at least 20 times any other process that is running espesially the ones that run under the user "Apple" I do not know if this is causing the problems on my mac but i tryed to forces close it and it dose not even let me click the button, the others close but reopean immideatly. I will attach a screen shot of what i have mentioned here.
- The problems I am facing are mainly performance :- To state a few examples, my mac dose not seam to be able to handile even the smallest tasks like switching tabs on safari, typing any thing, playing a movie withought stopping inbetween, etc.. ( let me elaborate on why I said its not able to handil these tasks, it is because when I am trying to do any one of the afformentioned tasks inbetween the cursor becomes a rainbow collered spinning disk and I am unable to do anything for about 10 seckonds after which it starts to work again for some time before it happens again. )
- Another concern of mine is that my mac seems to be on even with the lid closed if I do not shut it down compleetly, if i just close the lid after some time the computer starts warming up, and the fan starts running. the battery is drained at the same rate or slightly less rate than it would have if i was using it normally with the lid opean. ( altough this is happning the screen dose not turn on untill the lid is opean again )
- I have only 300+ GB full out of my 750GB so i believe these are not issues caused by my mac's memory being full ( BUT THE FIRST TIME I NOTICED THIS WAS HAPPNING WAS WHEN MY MEMORY WAS ABOUT 720GB FULL WHEN THESE ISSUES FIRST AROSE I IMMEADITLY DELEATED 400+GB OF MY USELESS FILES THAT I HAD BEEN HORDING ALL OF WHICH WERE MOVIES ) that about covers it all PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF ANY ONE KNOWS WHAT TO DO.
Ps: I apoligize if I have given too many unrelevant details, not enough usefull information and or if i was just all over the place with my explanations but I am really frustrated and was hoping not to miss anyting. Please let me know if any information at all is required and ill do my best to provide it.
Thank You

Mac Book Pro (2012, 15 inch and up to date on software won't start up normally.

I was Playing League of Legends on my 2012 Mac book pro (the most recent one) I switched desktops and began to work on an adobe after effects project, after I decided to play league of legends (LoL) again. I forgot it was on another desktop so I tried to open the application, it told me, "this application is already open, would you like to close the other one and open this one?" I accepted. After 3 minutes of waiting no screen came up but on the top left hand side of the screen LoL still appeared, I pressed Command+Q and nothing happened, my Mac froze. I proceeded to use the most common and apparently useless technique of holding down the power button and rebooting the Mac. Upon rebooting, this bar kept on filling up and after it finished, a loading thing rotated below the apple logo for a while, later the Apple logo left and the thing kept spinning. After 2 minutes of this I used my iPhone to look up solutions, I reset NRAM and PRAM, failed. I tried pressing Command+R during boot. My Mac asked me what language I wanted to use... **** no I don't want to wipe my Mac (I haven't backed it up in ages and I don't want to loose my stuff) Do I have to reset my Mac or is there an easier way? I have already called customer support and some guy told me to buy software support... It was $99... No thx Should I take my laptop in to the store?

Get an external drive and reinstall OS X on that then boot the system from that external drive and copy your files over from the internal drive to the external. Then Format and reinstall everything on you internal drive.
