EtreCheck results for MacBook with El Capitan

I would be very grateful if someone take a look at this EtreCheck report and advise me.  It shows that my system is running "below average", and I don't know enough about what I'm looking to do anything with these results.  I went through and tried to highlight any areas that stand out in the report.  I did go and uninstall Safari extensions, as I use Chrome.

I know a little on the systems, but not enough to help me out here. I downloaded a file which I think is a virus, but could not find using methods, I have installed. So I ran EtreCheck and got this report:

EtreCheck version: 2.9.12 (265)

Which indicates some random app isn't important. Do you think that the computer is slower than usual? If this isn't the case, then you do not have a problem and you don't need to do anything. If so, please see below.

When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is particularly bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.

These must be run as administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.

Run the Console application in one of the following ways:

☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

The title of the Console window should be all Messages. If it isn't, select

SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ all Messages

in the list of logs on the left. If you don't see this list, select

List of newspapers seen ▹ display

in the menu at the top of the screen bar.

Each message in the journal begins with the date and time when it was entered. Highlight date back to the time you noted above.

Select the messages entered since then until the end of the episode, or until they begin to repeat, whichever comes first.

Copy messages to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command + V.

The journal contains a large amount of information, almost all this is useless to solve any particular problem. When you post a journal excerpt, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.

Please don't dump blindly thousands of lines in the journal in this discussion.

Please do not post screenshots of log messages - text poster.

Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

When you post the journal excerpt, an error message may appear on the web page: "you include content in your post that is not allowed", or "the message contains invalid characters." It's a bug in the forum software. Thanks for posting the text on Pastebin, then post here a link to the page you created.

If you have an account on Pastebin, please do not select private in exposure menu to paste on the page, because no one else that you will be able to see it.

  • How can I create a bootable USB of OSX Snow Leopard on a MacBook with El Capitan?

    HI there, the hard drive failed on my MacBook unibody aluminum end 2008. a couple of years ago, I put in 8 GB of RAM so my thought has been that it is not yet time to entirely replace the MacBook. I replaced the drive HARD failed with a 500 GB compatible hard drive. I tried and failed to install El Calitan via a bootable USB key, because my machine is too old. I just ordered a copy of the Snow Leopard DVD on the Apple store. I wonder how I can install snow leopard on my computer, given that the DVD player on this subject does not? I am able to create a Version bootable USB of Snow Leopard on MacBook for my roommate? He is running to El Capitan. Could someone explain if this is possible and if so, how?

    Thanks in advance!

  • How to move files on external hard drive for Macbook Air (El Capitan)

    Hello.

    I bought a new macbook air last week. I've been moving files from my old laptop via my hard drive (my ultra 1 TB WD Passport). I was able to move the correct files on the drive, but now I want to move photos and videos to my Macbook, but it won't allow me. It shows a circle of gray with a line through it, when I try to drag the file on the disk. Photos and videos are in the documents in the finder not in the photo library, I don't know if that makes a difference.

    Any help will be really appreciated.

    Thank you

    Ann

    How did the external drive connected to the MBA? I guess that via USB? The freestanding photos/videos or are they in iPhoto or Photos?

    I have an external hard drive and the USB for storage purposes, but I'm going to need to download apps from the school.

    Minimum requirements:

    • At least 90 GB of free hard drive such that it requires for installation of Windows on Boot Camp
    • HARD DRIVE 250 GB

    Reason why I am upgrading to SSD is for my laptop be quick. Right now, need me at LEAST a minute to start my laptop and most of the time, I have to wait 30 seconds for my laptop to open an app to buy a mac because his young, but now my friends colleagues Windows user starts their laptop in 3 seconds.

    Given the rapid decline of the SSD price, I suggest to get the largest SSD drive you can afford because you don't know how your Windows installation will grow especially if your schoolwork is Windows-based.

    But you can also consider that an alternative to Boot Camp creates a Windows virtual machine in VMware Fusion, Parallels or Virtual Box. He doesn't have to take as much space, can be saved and can be run at the same time as Mac OS rather than to place it.

  • External screen flickers and snowy with El Capitan

    I have an intermittent problem on a new LG Display.

    LG Display 27MP58 27 "connected to the Macbook Air 11' with El Capitan (10.11.4) flickers and the picture goes snowy. This happens about 10% of the time.

    So to determine if it was the connection, the display or the computer I plugged in the screen of a Macbook Air with Yosemite and it was very stable. This convinced me that el Capitan is the culprit.

    Given that I'm reluctant to downgrade the OS to Yosemite, is there another fix for flickering with El Capitan.

    Thank you

  • How to avoid the accidental use of the Trackpad with El Capitan

    I have a Macbook with El Capitan.

    I use it constantly to type documents, however I also regularly in the battle with the trackpad being accidentally struck by a part of my hand so move the cursor with the result that I end up also write!

    It's really frustrating and does not limit my abilities to strike as I constantly to make sure that I don't have, wrongly, hits the trackpad!

    I tried see if there are solutions but, other than the use of an external apple keyboard, I can't find any other solution to avoid hitting this erronously trackpad!

    Is there a setting that I can take advantage of to render the less sensitive trackpad and so avoid this disadvantage?

    Thank you.

    I do not know if you do not want to do, but you could use an external mouse or trackpad and check the option "ignore the... integrated trackpad." "in the apple Menu > System Preferences > accessibility > mouse and Trackpad. See below:

    Why has been upgraded to El Capitan failed before?

    The only problem is that some applications require the upgrade and some devices that connect to the computer require updated drivers up-to-date. The problem is that for some devices and applications updates are not available and so they do not work with El Capitan.
