What makes my iMac slow, how to remove SIMBL

I already asked advice in this topic since I am wondering what is making my iMac so slow on startup and/or while changing user. I got a good hint from dominic23, thanks for that one. He advised me to get rid of SIMBL.
Now I have another problem. Can't remember that I've ever installed any SIMBL on my computer. Anyway, I could've done it and I tried to find that SIMBL to get rid of it. No success so far. Still, I ran the EtraCheck again and report says again that there is some SIMBL-thing running. Report is included to this message. Question now is, how or from where I can find this SIMBL.plist or what so ever it is that I can remove that one?

To get rid of SIMBL one method is to dDownload and run Find Any File to search for a file with "SIMBL" in the file name.
FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't like invisible folders, system folders and packages. The more important item to remove is a folder titled SIMBL in either the Home/Library/Applications Support folder of the HD/Library/Applications Support folder.
I use SIMBL for a dock altering application and here's what is on my hard drive:
Any file you want to remove you can do so by dragging from the search results window to the Trash in the Dock.

Hello Norman,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. To find out what the Other section is on your iPod Nano, the following will explain what the Other section is all about.

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1867
Once that is complete, then check the appropriate sections to see what is there. If you cannot isolate the issue then you may need to restore the iPod Nano. The following will assist with the restore process.

It is the orientation lock. To de-activate, double click the home button and scroll to the left until you see the same lock within a circle. Tap it to turn off the lock

What makes my comp slow?

I am coming from a much slower machine, this new one doesn't feel nearly as fast as I had hoped. Used to have an Athlon XP 1600, single 7.2k RPM drive, 512MB RAM. Now I have Athlon64 3000+, RAID 0 on 10k RPM drives, 1GB ram. The computer barely feels faster. The load times are almost identical.
However, from what I can tell, my benchmark scores are within acceptable range. I wonder if I need a faster CPU to really see that performance boost I was looking for? Mostly I want to decrease application loading times. It thought it was a result of slow HDD but these new ones don't really speed it up much. I do notice that when opening many programs my CPU utilization gets pegged at 100%. I assume if I got a faster CPU so it didn't peg at 100 the load to would down.

Could be a lot of things. However, if you're benchmarks are good then it's probably just your imagination
Other than that, my first guess would be spyware and/or virus.
1) Make sure you have a firewall installed and configured and working.
2) Install all Windows updates if that's what your OS is.
3) Chkdsk and Defrag
4) Run, update and scan with
Adaware SE
Spybot S&D
CWShredder
Antivirus
5) Repeat step 3 until all problems are gone. You may need to do it in Safe Mode to get rid of persistent stuff. Don't worry about the "DSO exploit" reported by Spybot S&D, it's a known issue with Spybot, and as long as XP is up to date, you're not in any danger.
6) Chkdsk and Defrag (yes, again)
Good luck.

What makes my iMac different? Part# MB323LL/A

I was curious what made this particular model of iMac different from the other 20" Alum. models?? I ask this because when I went to price some RAM memory on Crucial.com, they differentiated this model from the rest and recommended a different model of RAM for it. I did notice on the box that my machine what made in the USA.

Hi Timmeh: Yours is the most recent generation of iMac. It uses 800mHz RAM. All the previous Intel iMacs used 667mHz RAM.
Hope this helps

What makes my website slow like it is?

Dear Adobe fans,
i am building a website voor 'a tre natuursteen'. This is a naturestone factory in Hoofddorp, The Netherlands. This is my first job as a webdesigner.
I finally made it to add the site on the world wide web. But it turns out very slow. I think this will turn of customers. Can somebody please help me out? the site i'am talking about is: www.atre.nl
Thanks so far.
Best regards,
Nick Blok
Beste Adobe fans,
ik ben bezig met een website voor 'a tre natuursteen'. Dit is een bedrijf wat natuursteen verkoopt in Hoofddorp (keukenbladen, badkamers, zwembaden etc.). Dit is mijn eerste klus als 'webdesigner' uit een soort van hobby.
Eindelijk heb ik de site dan online gezet, maar de site is erg langzaam. (kijk even op www.atre.nl zodat je kan zien wat ik bedoel).
Graag ontvang ik advies van wat te doen.
Met vriendelijke groet,
Nick Blok

Hi Hans,
thanks for your reply. The homepage is loading well. But if you look any further in de website, you'll find the tab 'soorten'
http://www.atre.nl/index.php?option=com_content&view=frontpage&Itemid=187
This is the part where I would show all of the naturestone species. You can use your scroll function to search in the 'stone carousel' as i named it..
I'am working from my MacBook Pro, and have a fine internet connection. I'm worried about all the people who are using slower computers and internet connexions..
I hope you'll find an answer for me.
Best regards, Nick

How to remove spotlight search - it actually slowing down my new iMac?

How to remove spotlight search - it actually slowing down my new iMac while indexing data.
You shouldn't disable Spotlight completely; Apple's App Store relies on it to keep track of updates to software you've downloaded and permit you to update them when they're available. Instead, in Spotlight preferences, uncheck everything in "Search Results." Spotlight will still run for OS and App Store purposes but won't be useful for your search needs any longer. Instead, check out EasyFind in the App Store. It's fast, flexible, and will search external drives Spotlight hasn't indexed.

I upgraded my imac to Mountain Lion and my iMac has been painfully slow ever since. Any ideas what might be wrong and how to fix it?

I upgraded my iMac to Mountain Lion and it has been painfully slow ever since. Any ideas on what might be happening and how to fix it?

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Otherwise, take the steps below when you notice the slowdown.
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.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
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?
Next, select the Disk Activity tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
Step 2
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

What makes a ten year old iMac run slow?

What Mac OS are you running?
See if any of these items apply:
1) Are you running any anti-virus/internet security applications?
2) Are you running any "cleaning/tune-up/optimizations" applications?
3) Any peer-to-peer or torrent downloading software?
4) Any third-party disk backup software that came bundled with an external hard drive?
5) Any online backup scheme other than iCloud (Carbonite; GoogleDrive; MS One Drive)?
6) Did your financial institution ask you to install Trusteer EndPoint Protection (also known as Trusteer Rapport)?
An overly full hard drive can slow things down, too, especially in a computer with only 2GB RAM.
