• iPad 2 running very slow and freezing

  Try resetting your device. This will not erase your data stored on that device.

  • Press and hold the sleep/wake button
  • Press and hold the Home button
  • Press and hold both buttons until the display turns off and on again with the Apple logo on the subject.

  Alternatively, you can go to settings - general - reset - Reset all settings

  If that doesn't work, restore your device to factory settings. Please note that this will delete the data on your device.

• Mac running very slow and stall

  Hello

  Grateul for any help you can give.  I searched the forums for advice and have tried several solutions but without success so far.

  I have a macbook pro, which is 3 1/2 years.  Used primarily for surfing the internet and word processing.  For the past 3 weeks, that it worked if slow, it is almost useless to try to use it at all.  All applications take a long time to load and even typing has a delayed response.  Safari crashes frequently.  As mentioned above, I searched the forums and followed the advice given for example using disk utility to repair disk and permissions of the drive (have been several attempts to realize that he has appeared to expire several times, but I came to the conclusion, with no improvement) / reboot in recovery mode / stop and hold shift/alt/cmd/delete etc..  Nothing I found so far has helped it's why I started a new thread asking for advice (I understand very well I'm not the first person to ask why my mac is slow!).

  Information that could help find a solution, a year or two ago I had to install sophos and tuneupmymac to access the e-mails from work.  I thought that the problem may be connected to either one of them so I uninstalled sophos, but I failed to uninstall tuneupmymac because advice online on the website of tuneupmymac do not appear to work (the option Uninstall does not appear where it is shown in the guide, and I can't find anywhere else), nor the advice I've seen elsewhere (when I type in the path to file to Library/preferences in ' ") go to the folder"it says not 'found').  The only other explanation I could think was that I could have picked up a virus from a memory stick friend used to transfer pictures about 4 weeks ago. The problems started shortly after, so it would make sense in terms of timing. Otherwise, I tried to complete the upgrade to El Capitan, as I thought that might help, but it can't seem to finish right now (probably because of issues that make my mac to run slowly).

  Am at a bit of a loss if it's a last cry for help before considering in the store!  All opinions are appreciated.  If I missed the obvious information, apologies - I'm a total novice.  Provide any additional information that might help identify the problem.

  Thank you very much

• Computer is very slow and IE does not work all the time.

  I bought a computer from my old employeer.  He is doing all sorts of things, or should I say not to do all sorts of things.  It is very slow and IE does not work all the time.  They have questions arise and ask if the administrator oks things and other things like that.  It came with any disks.  I would like to wipe, clean and load a new disc, but I don't know where to find the disc or if I can do it.   Can someone please?

  Hello

  Proceed as follows to contribute to these two questions. You can probably buy the disks of Vista machine to system or get
  the former employer to do it for you if necessary.

  Try these and it can also be a good idea to update your main drivers later. The General corruption can also play a
  role in this issue. And even the TCP/IP stack might need to be refreshed.

  What antivirus/antispyware/security products do you have on the machine? Be one you ALREADY had on this
  machine, including those you have uninstalled (they leave leftovers behind which can cause strange problems).

  If no joy there's something blocking perhaps.

  Start - All Programs - Accessories - System Tools - IE with no Addons - what works best?

  IE - Tools - Internet Options - Advanced - tab click on restore, and then click Reset - apply / OK

  IE - Tools - Internet Options - Security tab - click on reset all default areas - apply / OK

  Close and restart IE or IE with no addons

  not better?

  IE - tools - manage Addons (for sure disable SSV2 if it is there, it is no longer necessary but Java always install
  "(and it causes problems - you never update Java to go back in and turn it off again)." Search for other possible problems.

  Windows Defender - tools - software explore - look for problems with programs that do not look right. Permit
  are usually OK and "unauthorized" are not always bad. If in doubt about a program to ask about it here.

  Could be that a BHO - BHOremover - free - standalone program, needs no installation, download and run - not all
  are bad, but some can cause your question (toolbars are BHO).

• Satellite Pro M10 suddenly ran very slow and freezes

  Two weeks ago, that my SP M10 is suddenly very slow and freeze. After a reset, it began to check the HARD drive, which lasted about 8 hours, and several repair lost clusters to files. But the student pilot did not run faster. I reformatted the HDD to FAT32 (NTFS has not worked) and reinstalled Windows XP. First, it seemed to work very well, but a few hours later, it freezes again.

  After 10-20 min, I got access. This has not changed so far. CHKDSK another also lasted several hours and again showed some lost clusters. I think that my HARD drive is damaged, but how can I see if there a lot of bad sectors? Can I fix it? Can I possibly replace my 40 GB HARD drive with a larger HARD drive capacity?

  Are there restrictions or can I use any brand?

  Hello

  I had the same problem with my Satellite 1900. The result was the HARD drive damaged (bad sectors). I tried to fix it with different tools, but without success. The best solution is to swap the HARD drive.

  Good bye

  Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods above
  It is preferable to ensure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are located)

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

  Refer to these discussions because many more excellent advice however don't forget to check your antivirus
  programs, the main drivers and BIOS update and also solve the problems with the cleanboot method
  first.
