OS X V10.7 Lion :: Safari Is Running Slower Since Upgrade?

May 16, 2012

Ever since upgrading to OSX 10.7.4, Safari has been very slow loading websites that normally are very fast.  When I open Safari or load a page I get the spinning ball for as long as fifteen seconds.  This is especially problematic when I initially open Safari in the morning after my iMac has been asleep for several hours.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: IMac Is Running Slower Than Ever?

May 2, 2012

My late 2011 iMac  started slowing down about 3 months ago. My hard drive then got corrupt and I restored to mac osx lion anew. It sped up a bit but still slow. Last month my iMac started doing the same thing so instead of restoreing I moves all of my files to an external hard drive. Now I rerestored once again but it didn't help. A prime example of the speed decrease is the game minecraft. Half a year ago I could run a server and run on the good graphics smoothly. Now I can even look around with only minecraft. It took me 30 min to turn on. I had to do this on my iPad because I mac couldnt make it here.

IMac :: Itunes And Safari Running, Enable The Visualizer Imac Is Noticeably Slower?

Dec 31, 2010

System Spec: Late 09 21" 3.06, GeForce 9400, 4gb ramCurrently I have itunes and safari running, if i enable the visualizer my imac is noticeably slower, especially when browsing the internet.I thought it might be the fact I was running a second 1080p display from the 9400 would have caused the slow down. But the same thing occurred after i disconnected it. After repairing permissions and restarting, pmram etc.Is the 9400 causing the slowdown? I know its fairly old but itunes visualizer and safari should be quite basic tasks. Its not the end of the world i know but does the 27" imac have similar issues as i plan to upgrade my machine in 2011.

MacBook Pro :: Late 2008 (2.53/4GB Ram) Running 10.7.3 Seems To Be Running Slower?

Mar 15, 2012

My Mac feels as if it is running slower these last couple of months.  I have thought of pursuing a commercially available "clean up" product, but thought I would try the community first and also for pointers using the Mac's own internal diagnostics or system improvement capabilities.  Any and all advice is most welcome.  I have a 250GB hard drive that is half full, I always update to latest revisions and have an extra high-speed internet connection.  Computer is not heavily loaded with apps and typically using Firefox for browsing.  (MS Office for Mac as well, but usually limited to one program such as MS Word or Excel at a time.)  No heavy graphics utilization.  Videos from the internet load slowly and some are choppy.  Even scrolling just doesn't seem "brisk".

OS X :: 10.5.7 Update - Running Slower Now?

May 20, 2009

anyone noticed after the 10.5.7 update you run slower. my keyboard is taking time to catch up with my typing now and i have to wait a noticeable amount of time longer to load webpages.
i have a Intel iMac, which has not been affected as badly, but my MacBook is really bad since the update?

I have scanned for viruses and used onyx to see if that solved it. but not luck.

is this a problem with just me or the update in general?

PowerPC :: Everything On EMac Running Slower

Mar 19, 2007

Everything on my mac is running slower and slower, I have the last ver. of the eMac, and still running the 256 Ram, and 12 GB of storage with an external of 250 GB. I dont know why, if you need a list of apps or anything just ask. I also dont have the 100 I need right now to upgrade the ram. Plus if anyone could tell me if and how I can use my external as my main drive, but it is a usb, that sometimes hikups being on my mac for access, it will access it sometimes 5 min after I boot, so I may not want to, or is it a glitch of my mac.

Software :: Macbook Running 100 Times Slower?

May 31, 2009

i have the macbook model no.A1181.

Its the black macbook that 2.4ghz intel duo core processor and 2gb of memory and 250 gb hard drive the 13.3 screen and it is black with the lepord apps.

Latley i can not to anything at all i have gone and checked everything that needs to be checked and nothing is wrong, But ever since that virus scare about the macs was on the news my my macbook has been 100 times slower then usual. And on top of that i can not even go in any of my apps all the icon does is bounce and it never pops up and wen i look in my force quit it tells me that the app is not responding it happens with everything on the macbook. And i can't even go on the internet at all the moment i got to search for a website it doesn't even come up and again says not responding. I am both a mac and pc user and have grown up on both mac and pc. So i know how to use a mac but i can't not find out what is wrong and i am really worried because i payed 1500 for this.

MacBook :: Getting Slower At Running Basic Operations With OS X 10.7.2

Jun 20, 2012

My 2008 2.4ghz Intel MacBook is getting slower and slower at running basic operations. I have tried to free up my hard drive as it was very full. I free up 40 GB+ of space, but something is still filling it back up? Here is what my profile looks like:

How do I figure out what all this "other" material is? I thought it was due to a lack of memory after upgrading to Lion, but it has been getting dramatically worse, which doesn't seem like a memory issue to me.

OS X Mavericks :: IMac Running Slower Since Update

Aug 26, 2014

Since upgrading to Mavericks my Mac has been running pretty slow. I run Logic Pro 9 and Ableton 8 music programs on my computer quite often and that's where i notice significant lag. I understand those are heavy programs, but even when Safari is open and I try to open Finder there is lag time before the window actually opens. When I restart my computer, it runs a little better, but as soon as I begin to open other programs, the lag begins and will continue even after I close them.

I upgraded from Snow Leopard and never had any issues- it ran extremely smooth under the most stressful conditions with all the current memory and hard drive space, cpu, etc. I

Applications :: Firefox 3.6.3 Runs Slower The Longer It Is Running?

Apr 22, 2010

My iMac:
Firefox (3.6.3)
27" iMac 2.8 quad core i7
12gb of memory running
OS/X ver. 10.6.3

DSL: 6 mbps/768 Kbps

Hardwired DSL modem connected to iMac via ethernet cable

The iMac is screaming fast except for the Firefox app, the longer I run it the slower my internet is. I have tried disabling the plug-ins as well going to Preferences=>Privacy and setting "Remember my browsing history for at least" to 5 days.

This hasn't really helped. I have confirmed that the DSL is running properly, even had a AT&T tech out to confirm it.

OS X :: Macbook Running Leopard And IMac Running Tiger - How I Can Upgrade Them Both?

Nov 15, 2009

I have a Macbook running Leopard and an iMac running Tiger. I am looking to upgrade Leopard to Snow Leopard and Tiger to Leopard. If I were to purchase Snow Leopard and install it on the Macbook, would I then be able to use the copy of Leopard that came with the Macbook on the iMac? I am not trying to use 2 copies of the same thing on different machines, I just want to put a new os on one machine and move the existing one to another.I am reluctant to purchase the Mac Box Set version of Snow Leopard for the iMac because I do not want or need iLife and iWork.

Applications :: Chrome Slower In Flash Than Safari?

Nov 27, 2010

I recently switched from Safari 5.0.3 to Chrome on my Mac, and I noticed, that Street View scrooling doesn't work as smooth on Chrome as on a Safari.

That made me wonder, so I started running different Flash demos , and it looks that Flash running from Chrome is rather significantly slower than the one for Safari...

Could anyone confirm this? They appear to be the same versions.

Now I started using Chrome 8 beta , enabled hardware acceleration, and it's not as slow as Chrome 7, but still clearly slower than Safari.

Applications :: Safari Loading Pages Slower Than Firefox?

Feb 8, 2009

Has anyone else noticed that Safari is painfully slow the last few weeks? Mostly the problems are with gmail and facebook, but all sites are slower than Firefox. With both gmail and facebook, I can login fine, but when I click on something (a mail message, a person, a picture), it times out.

I've tried resetting safari several times to no luck. Firefox works fine. I'm having the same issues on my mac mini as well as my MBP. Both have 4GB Ram.

MacBook Pro :: Unable To Use Safari And VLC After Upgrade To Lion?

Apr 10, 2012

Last week my hard drive broke (with Snow Leopard) and I brought my macbook pro to an Apple Store, the HD was totally broken and they couldn't restore any data. They installed a new hard drive with Lion, when I got home I restored my data with Time Machine, but now Safari and VLC aren't responding, Safari opens but that's it and VLC doesn't even opens. Also the CPU of VLC and Webprocess gets to 100 %.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: YouTube Does Not Work Since Safari 5.1.7 Upgrade?

May 20, 2012

Trying to view a YourTube video on a new current iMac running 10.7.4.Video is embedded in site that I administer, so I need to check the link when I update. Get the dreaded " This video is currently unavailable" tag.The video played fine before the Safari 5.1.7 update, and plays fine on my Air and on my iPod.No other updates or software changes - only the Safari update. So the Safari upgrade broke the part where the browser identifies itself to YouTube so I get the HTML feed instead of Flash?No Flash loaded on this iMac, ever.

OS X Mountain Lion :: Computer Responds Slower When TM

Aug 21, 2014

My machine has 64 Gig RAM, 3.5 GHz 6-core Intel Xeon, and my main drive is a RAID consisting of 4 SSDs. What I notice is that the user response time (for opening new Finder windows and such) is slower when the Time Machine is backing up. It's not stuck - it backs up properly, but my user interface experience gets laggy when it's active. This didn't used to happen even on a much lower-spec machine (both were using WD external USB hard drives for the Time Machine backup). What can I do to keep the TM from slowing things down? I don't want to back up less frequently - I want the high specs of the expensive hardware to give me a wait-free workflow even while backing up, and I'm hoping there's a software-side solution to that. I know it's possible, since my old 10.6 Mac Pro machine didn't do that, and I would think with the good hardware, it should be faster.
