Slow MacBook Pro since Yosemite. CPU almost 90%. Fans on.

My MacBook Pro has become very slow since installing Yosemite. Fans are on very often In Activity Monitor. Sometimes, I sometimes see cloudd taking up 90% of the CPU (as you can see from below). Other times, it's a web page gobbling up CPU.
Can someone please offer a suggestion to get my laptop get it's MOJO back? Already reset the SMC and PRAM

Hey Ogelthorpe,
Thanks so much! I uninstalled CleanMyMac 2 and restarted. But, fans are still blowing and CPU still unreasonably high. The fans came on as soon as I restarted - and stayed on for minutes. I ran Activity Monitor to see what was running. It's appears that one of three things are at the top of the list using up a high CPU % - either cloudd (was as high as 90%),  WindowServer or Flash Player for Safari.
As I post this, it's been 15 minutes since reboot - and the fans have calmed down. But, it seems that in the past, it's just a matter of time before some process kicks in - and it's another episode of Fans Gone Wild.
One more piece of the puzzle that may add to your diagnosing the patient (and I didn't know if this was related or if I should start a new post for it): Since upgrading, I now see a popup when I reboot. It says, "com.apple.iCloudHelper.xpc wants to use the "login" keychain". But, here's the weird part - it's not the regular password for the laptop. To get it to go away, I have to enter a password that I have not used in 2-3 years. Very strange (cue Twilight Zone music...)
Any suggestions for next steps?
Latest and greatest EtreCheck (15 minutes after reboot - and cloudd went away).

  • One more slower MacBook Pro after Yosemite upgrade

    Hello,
    I noticed on queries like that of GreenVal1984 that it helps to have a EtreCheck report pasted.  Because my MacBookPro - especially Apple Mail, iCal, and Spotlight within the Finder - has slowed down since I have upgraded to Yosemite, here is the system report.  I ran AdwareMedic and got nothing, but not sure what "mds stores" is which may be using energy. Any way you can help me declutter the energy use or find what is slowing it will be most appreciated!
    Problem description:
    Since installing Yosemite, my MacBook Pro has significantly slowed down, especially Apple Mail.

    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.

    Uninstall CleanMyMac 2, it is a scam.
    You have the Genieo adware. Running this program should remove it: http://adwaremedic.com/index.php.
    After doing those two things, reboot and see if things are better.

    after purchasing two 2 GB memory modules of the proper type for your model MacBook Pro (one example can be found here), you can follow the instructions in the little white printed booklet which originally came in the box with your MacBook Pro for replacing the modules.

  • Slow macbook pro since the airport security patch and last OS update about a week ago..

    Hi, my Macbook Pro has slowed down to a crawl on the internet since the airport security patch and OS update about 1 week ago.  I am using Firefox 3.6.17 and have tried all versions up to date (but 3.6.17 is the best).  Same issues with Safari too.  I am using an Airport wireless modem also so should not be any issues with compliance.  Local programs seem to run OK... but the internet is slow enough to grow a beard... Do they have a patch for this issue.  It only started after the updates.  Was blazing fast until that.

    How large is your hard drive and how much hard drive space do you have left?
    Disconnect all peripherals from your computer. Boot from your install disc & run Repair Disk from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
    Select your language.
    Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
    Select Disk Utility.
    Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click First Aid.
    Click Repair Disk.
    Restart your computer when done.
    Repair permissions after you reach the desktop-http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751 and restart your computer.

    Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility and press the Continue button. After Disk Utility loads select the Macintosh HD entry from the the left side list.  Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If Disk Utility 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 Disk Utility and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X 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.
    Alternatively, see:
    Reinstall OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Choose the version you have installed now:
    OS X Yosemite- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X

         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                     if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

    Have you opened Disk utility and formatted it?  Most new HDDs come formatted for Windows, not Mac.
    Ciao.

    You have only about 10 percent free drive space left. 50gB is enough to run the computer but, if it gets much smaller, that can slow how Virtual Memory (VM) works as the system has to more carefully search the remaining space for qualified blocks to which to write data.
    Adding RAM will reduce the writes-to-disk by VM but you should probably consider a little holiday disk cleaning of stuff you no longer use.
    This concerns me:

  • Slow Macbook pro. Can anyone help please?

    Hi Everyone.
    This is my first time here, so please go easy on me.
    I have a slow Macbook Pro. No idea why so I googled it and google suggested I get these details via Etresoft.

  • Extremely slow macbook pro performance

    I have a 4GB Macbook Pro 13 inch, less than 1/2 the memory is in use.  Computer startup can take up to 10 minutes, and opening any app can take 1-2 minutes.  Apps are constantly stalling, and Safari is constantly showing the spinning wheel of doom.  It's running OS X 10.9.5.  It's at the point where my iPhone is a much better option that using my Mac.  Any suggestions on speeding it up?  I used to have MacKeeper on it, but the Genius Bar at the Apple store told me the uninstall it, as it often can cause a slow performance.

  • Slow Macbook Pro- please help, I don't understand previous advice.

    Hello all,
    I have a very slow Macbook Pro running on Lion 10.7.3.
    I looked up this problem on the forums before I sent this message but I didn't quite understand the advice. I have been on something called Disk Utility and Activity Monitor but don't really understand what I'm looking for. It seems a large percentage of my mac is 'idle' if that makes sense. Someone said to look at Page Out but I really don't understand what that means and what sort of numbers are normal.
    I do have some storage left so I don't think it could be that. A lot of my gigabytes seem to be taken up by movies and 'other'. I've tried deleted a load of videos but it hardly made a difference. I have Mac Mail and it seems very slow on my Macbook compared to on my Ipad and iphone. iCal is also very slow on here and it always takes a while to load internet pages. It isnt the wifi connection.
    Please help and bear in mind I am by no means a Mac whizz so you might have to talk in layman's terms!
    Thanks,
    Amy

    If you have more than ten or so files or folders on your Desktop, move them, temporarily at least, somewhere else in your home folder.
    If iCloud is enabled, disable it.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals. Launch the usual set of applications you use when you notice the problem.
    Step 1
    Launch the Activity Monitor 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.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the page that opens.
    Select the CPU tab.
    Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
    Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
    Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
    Step 2
    Launch the Console application in the same way as above, and select “kernel.log” from the file list. Post the dozen or so most recent messages in the log — the text, please, not a screenshot.
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Do not post many repetitions of the same message.

  • Slow Macbook Pro - any options?

    Problem description:
    slow macbook pro.  everything works, just slower than christmas 1985…slow.
    I've looked through several posts searching for my solution, not sure how to test my memory - may be my problem - that and i'm only running 2GB RAM.  I'd go upgrade that tomorrow if that would fix my issue.
    also, battery seems to not last like it should, even after replacing the battery. 
    Any solutions or options for me? 
    Thanks crew -

    Hi Gary, I may have a simple solution for you, and hope it's not too late.
    Try to uninstall AppTrap !
    I have a MacBook Pro 15" with 16GB RAM and two SSD in it. So it can't be slow But recently I saw that my CPU was hot (70-75°C) and fans were spinning even with all apps closed. Same problem with the battery shorter than ever. In Activity Monitor I saw that AppTrap (that you have too) was taking 2,88GB of my RAM… So I disabled it on the pref panel and uncheck launch at start, and I quitted it in the activity monitor. My CPU becomes cool again (40°C) and fans stopped instantly.
    I really hope this will help you !

  • I have an Epson printer on a Wifi network. Windows 7 desktop and and HP Win 7 laptop (my wifes) print to it just fine. My MacBook Pro running Yosemite won't detect it, and I have the latest driver installed. No problem when I had a Canon...

    I have an Epson printer on a Wifi network. Windows 7 desktop is running the network, and my wife's HP Win 7 laptop prints to it just fine. My MacBook Pro running Yosemite won't detect it, and I do have the latest driver installed. I didn't have a problem when I had a Canon Pixma on the network, but when I replaced it with the Epson nothing seems to work. I go to add a printer to the queue and only the FAX function of the printer shows up - not the WS-4530 print function. Does anyone out there have any suggestions?  Please??? :-)

    Hi Kelly,
    As someone who has to print from my Mac to a networked printer at home all the time, I can certainly understand how frustrating it must be to have that fail to perform as expected. Let's see if we can get you up and running.
    I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
    OS X Yosemite: Printing troubleshooting
    Start with the section titled Check the network.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Sincerely,
    Brett L
