System speed downed When I updated Maverick ?

System speed very downed When I updated Maverick, each and every applications getting very slow to open some applicatons not support for maverick

Slightly irritated with the change.  Everything is sluggish and updates to existing apps are failing left and right.  This may be enough to make me change my mind about apple...

  • IMac from 2009, 4 GB RAM. System shuts down when I use safari or make much moves on the trackpath.

    I've got an iMac from 2009, 4 GB RAM. System shuts down when I use safari or make much moves on the trackpath. Use Mavericks, installed Mavericks again on clean system. Problem still exist. What now?

    The 2009 iMaccan take 8 GB ram, while it should run ok with 4 it might be a rather inexpensive test to put in 8 and see if that clears up the problems.  Mavericks is going to use almost 2 GB itself so, unless you are opening a lot of applications, you should get by with 4 GB.  But I would go for 8 and see how it does.

  • System slow down after lion update 8/18/11

    Has anyone else had a problem with their system slowing down after downloading the system update for Lion on 8/18?  My system is not nearly as responsive and is only about two weeks old and have not installed any software other than Microsoft Office 2011 when I bought the machine.  Any ideas?

    Ok my system is booting and shutting down faster now.. This method worked for me:
    First, I repaired the permissions:
    1) Open up Disk Utility
    2) Select your hard drive
    3) Now select Repair Disk Permissions.
    Then, I deleted the caches folder:
    1) From the Finder's Go menu, select Go To Folder, and go to this folder: /Library
    2) Delete everything inside the Caches folder (This might require the Admin Username & Password)
    Finally, go to System Preferences and click on Startup Disc then click on your boot drive (In my case I've selected my HD labeled "Macintosh HD Mac OS X, 10.7.1". Now do a restart by clicking on the Restart button. If you don't have a Startup drive selected your mac will waste time at boot searching for a suitable boot drive !
    I Hope this works for you as well.
    Cheers!

  • PSE 10 system slows down when adding files to catalog

    I recently switched from PSE 3 to PSE10 and had issues converting the catalog.  I never did resolve those so I decided to start with creating a new catalog in PSE 10.  My first session of adding photos worked fine.  When I restarted the task the next day, I was asked in participating in making the product better by sharing information about my use with Adobe.  I agreed to participate and very quickly noticed that my computer slowed considerably when adding photos from my hard drive.  The process still worked but I experienced a dramatic increase in the time it took for photos to be added (e.g. the cursor spins for a couple of minutes while the task is working).  I went under my account preferences and opted out of the product participation program but the problem has persisted.  I rebooted the computer to see if that would help but it has not.  I have turned off all media analysis and both optimized and repaired my catalog and while this has provided some improvement, there are still instances where the system slows down.  Now it seems that every other folder's worth of pictures (does not matter how many photos) I add causes this delay.
    I appreciate any help anyone can provide in determining why this slow down keeps occuring. 
    FYI, I am running a new Windows 7, 64-bit system with 8GB DDR-3-1066MHz, and 2 TB hard drive.

    Have you also edited the Preferences (Performance) to increase the amount of RAM that PSE can use?
    Do you have many background processes running?  Having a single HDD means that everything running on your computer has to wait in the queue for disk access.
    How many photos are you importing?
    What file types are the photos?
    How large are the photos?

  • Compleat system slow down after current updates

    Has anyone learned why we all seem to have a compleat system slow down after the current set of updates? Everything works, but is VERY slow to respond. Even iTunes 7.1.1 plays video choppy now. Audio track plays fine however. Odd.
    -Apple //GS

    First of all, try repairing your permissions with Applications> Utilities> Disk Utility. Select the hard drive you're running off of and then click the Repair Permissions button.
    If that doesn't work I'd do an archive and install:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
    Then run the combo update(s) instead of the consecutive ones. That seems to be working for a lot of people, but it will probably take a while.

  • My system shuts down when i ask it to sleep.. Help??!!

    I have The operating system Windows 8.1. When i close the laptop or ask it to sleep it closes without a problem. On restart all the programs i had open are closed and it reboots as if i shut the laptop down rather than asked it to sleep.
    I'm doing my dissertation at the minute and I have many tabs open, it just adds to my frustration when i have to re-open all the tabs and wait 2-5 minutes for the system to boot?
    Is there anything I can do?
    Knowhow at pc world said there is nothing i can do, its just an operating system fault?
    HELP!!??

    Hi,
    How do you wake up your computer, pressing FN? How long it takes to wake up from sleep?
    I suspect that your computer unexpected shut down when you put it into Sleep.
    Please run SFC /scan command to check if there is any error or corrupted files which may cause the issue.
    Would you please also check if there is any minidump created after sleep?
    To ensure minidumps are enabled, refer to the step “Configure the dump type” in following article:
    How to read the small memory dump file that is created by Windows if a crash occurs

    If there it is, please help to upload it here for our research.

  • Haroon Mahmood – computer shut down when getting update notifications

    Hi,
    I am Haroon Mahmood. I am new user to this forum. I faced some problem regarding the computer. I am just open a news site then whole thing will just shut off. This problem has happened many times in my computer. But last time when I started
    back up I notice there was window update, that there is new update available on my computer. I could not found any solution of this problem. Please let me know the solution of this problem.
    Thanks & Regards
    Haroon Mahmood

    Hello Haroon Mahmood,
    Do you mean that the Windows shut down automatically when Windows update start?
    Will it shut down when you manually use Windows Update?
    Please take the following steps for troubleshooting:
    1. Go to Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Troubleshooting\All Categories and run the Windows Update Troubleshooter
    2. Open the event viewer and check if there are any related error log. For more information about the event log, please refer to the following article.

  • Lost my email after system shut down to do updates

    Help!!!  Just when I thought my learning curve was over... I have a dilmea.  I updated my systems... computer shut down... when it restarted I went to send an email... and I can't find anything to do with email.  Where could it have gone?  How do I get it back?  I was going to do systems restore up until yesterday.. but I can't even find that.  Please help me!!!

    Power failure is a dangerous situation.
    Your database may become inconsistent.
    A quick checklist would be:
    -Try starting only the database first, don't start sap, database most probably wont and might need some sort of recovery ( i am quoting oracle database here) do the required recovery or troubleshooting and make sure that database is not giving out any errors in its log files. if database starts up correctly all is fine.
    -if the database starts, start sap, sap normally should start up correctly.
    -if SAP starts properly, check system log SM21
    -check SM13 check for any failed updates - if there have been failed ones, one needs to carefully analyse them.
    -check if the system log is not showing any logs
    -check ST22 is not giving any wierd dumps (if it is investigate why)
    Can't think of much right now.. maybe you can wait and see what others have to say.

  • Help! My iTunes shuts down when it "updates the library"

    I just installed whatever the latest software update was. Now, when I try to open itunes, a message comes up with a progress bar and a message saying "Updating iTunes Library". You cannot say cancel. About 3/4 of the way through, The Progress bar stops and the program freezes. I have to manually go into Windows Task Manager and shut it down because it doesn't resp0ond. Does any one know what to do?!?!?

    Same problem. This is the 3rd time this has happened to me when upgrading iTunes. All the previous fixes i've tried do not work this time. I've tried everything in this article - http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302856.
    Does anyone have any other suggestions?

  • System shuts down when grey screen and grey Apple logo appear

    My system (G4 desktop from 2000) is old enough to not support 500 GB HD's natively. So I bought a Tempo controller card that fits into a PCI slot and have used it successfully with Tiger for the past 2 years. I upgraded to Leopard and found that I can no longer boot from my primary HD. My system does have a very small HD connected to the original controller card and Leopard was installed on it just to see what would happen. The computer boots normal. But this small drive is useless since all of my data, pictures, videos are on the 500 GB drive. My accounts are on the same drive. I need to find a way to successfully boot from the 500 GB drive or be able to log on from the smaller drive but use my accounts on the 500 Gb drive.

    There is a firmware upgrade for most Sonnet Tempo cards on their website. If there's firmware for your card, you'll need to boot from 10.4 (or from some other drive with just about any Mac OS X), and install the update. The installer pkg is fairly self explanatory. I would unplug those drives from the card during the update. You need to be using firmware version 2.1.2 if you have a SATA controller (use System Profiler to check after the update). Here's the link:
    Link:[http://www.sonnettech.com/support/downloads/computercards.html]
    Then use disk utility to setup those drives. You could do this from 10.4 or from 10.5 (or from the 10.5 installer disk).
    If all checks out, restart or re-install 10.5 and the drives should be there.
    I'm assuming you have some other drive you can boot from. It could be an old IDE drive, or even a firewire drive. If not, now's a good time to make one. It's a good idea to keep something around as a spare boot drive for emergencies (like this). I keep an old IDE drive with several bootable partitions - this drive is usually unplugged. I use disk utility (from the installer CD) to "restore" a working OS onto one of the partitions - it makes a perfect copy.
    Good luck

  • System shutting down when converting files

    Downloaded 7.5.0.20 and when I try to convert files into Ipod format from existing WMA my PC goes into uncommanded reboot. Not linked to any other applications that I can see and happens too frequently to be anything else. (Running latest AVG antivirus V7.5.516
    Have NEVER had this problem before, and have 23Gb of files in Windows Media Player.
    Anyone have any thoughts on what might be conflicting or causing the issue?

    Found the problem lay with hardware not software - actually overheating the PC as the chip heatsink was clogged with dust. Strange that nothing else had caused reboot but then again life can be strange.....

  • [Solved] System slows down when charging

    My laptop battery got to a really low level (<5%), but it was working smoothly, until I plugged in the charger: after that, the system got sluggish (usable, but VERY annoying). I suspect this is related to the graphics card/driver (Intel/i915). By watching the output of top, there was a kworker process using consistently over 40% CPU (despite starting with a K, from what I could glean, this has nothing to do with KDE). Once the battery got over 90% (approx.), the system got usable again. Is this some misconfiguration issue? Bug? PEBKAC?

    That does seem weird. In fact its the first time I heard something like that. Was there some CPU intensive operations that you were performing along with the charging?
    An interesting test would be to see if it happens again and consistently so. Try to discharge your battery to 10% and then put it back on charge to see what is going on. Maybe post your dmesg at that time and your Xorg.log (although at this point I am not quite sure what we will find)
    A basic google search for kworker yields this :
    http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=c … is+kworker
    kworker seems to be some kind of indexing service. Disabling nepomuk might be one option as described here

  • System shutting down when using slide show mode in Microsoft power point

    Hi,
    Windows unexpected reboot might also be caused by BSOD, here is a blog talking about that:
    Blue Screen of Death (BSOD)
    Please follow the instructions to collect the dump files if we found any, then upload them into onedrive and post the link here.
    Also a blog talking about crash dump files:
