IMac (El Capitan v.10.11.6) slow
My IMac runs very slowly. I had this problem with previous Mac and am aware that I could have Malware installed somewhere. Looking at other posts, I ran EtreCheck and will post it here. I ran it once, found malware and rmoved it. However, it works more slowly. Slow to start, slow down to run programs (MS Office, Photoshop) and browser (Chrome). I do not see there is a coupon printer, which is a year or two ago and I thought I deleted. I can't find anywhere in my applications. Not sure that is the question.
Any advice would be welcome.

Slow to start up? The slow?
Have you tried to boot safe mode and then start normally? Try safe mode if your Mac does not commissioning - Apple Support
Have reset you the SMC? Reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac - Apple Support
You could also try to disconnect the Terminal FitBit and uninstalling the FitBit software according to the instructions of developers, restart and test. Except if they have recently updated their hardware and software has caused delays in OS X for quite some time now. If this isn't the problem, or you can't live without it, you can always reinstall.

I deleted two e-mail accounts in mail on my iMac (El Capitan). I have reinstalled the first without problem. When I tried the second, I got an error message that the account already exists. Any suggestions?
First of all, make sure that you don't have two accounts with the same address. What happens if one of them is an iCloud account.
From the Mail menu bar, you select
▹ Connection Doctor window
In the window that opens, look for an SMTP (outgoing mail) account with a name that corresponds to the account that you are trying to add. Double-click it. Another window opens, displaying the list of all outgoing mail accounts. Click the sign button less to remove the corresponding one, and then click OK.
Try to add the email account again. If you still can not, log off or restart the computer, and then open the preferences window accounts Internet and check if the account is displayed.

Of course, I'm using my iMac El Capitan, but when I bought the music today and went to add to my iPod touch iTunes ended up freezing. Long story short, I could delete the files from the iPod but can not add one; Adding a single song led to suspended iTunes and the cancellation of the synchronization via the iPod of course makes no difference.
After going through all the rigamarole any attempt to delete all backups for iPod, both through preferences and in/Library/Application Support / MobileSync / Backup, I always had the same problem. I can't add music on my iPod via the iMac, nor can I save it there. Yes, I rebooted.
And so, after many tears, I pulled out my MacBook ' 08, who narrowly missed the cut for El Capitan and so still has Snow Leopard. And now my iPod backed up very well! (I cursed myself for not to copy previous backup before it was replaced, but hey.) They are all under the same Apple ID, so at this point, I'm simply redownloading all of my new purchases on the ol' MacBook ' so I can add it to the iPod... but how long this will be a viable solution? (I realize using products Apple since 2008 is an affront, but you've got to do what you do I do, and I don't currently have pocket for 32 GB change.)
So the question. Is there an incompatibility of software between my 1st generation iPod touch (3.1.3) and my iMac (El Capitan with iTunes 12.3.2.35 10.11.3)? Is there really a degree of corruption here than Snow Leopard with iTunes 10.6.8 11.4 (18) does not recognize?
TL; Dr: I can do my iPod touch backup of my iMac?
(My apologies for what is the format, I still haven't managed to brevity, and these a few hours researching in it made me frustrated).
Edit: I forgot to mention that I tried to copy on the backup freshly prepared from the MacBook on the iMac and received the same exact error message.

In 2007, I bought an iMac G5 and my safari videos are slow and jerky. What can I do?
They are cutting and slowly because the version of Safari running on 10.4 Tiger is very outdated.
And it's not just v10.4 is the question, but most of the video content requires Flash. The minimum requirement for Flash is...
- Intel Core™ Duo 1.83 GHz or faster processor
- Mac OS X v10.6 or later version
- Latest versions of Safari, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and Opera
- 512 MB of RAM; 128 MB graphics memory

iMac (retina) - Fusion 8 - 10 Windows - very slow
Hi guys,.
I need help troubleshooting a Windows 10 virtual machine that runs at snail's pace. Installation program:
-iMac (retina 5 k, 27 inches, end of 2015)
-Processor: 3.2 Ghz Intel core i5
-Memory: 8 GB
-Storage: 1 TB drive of Fusion
-Graphics card: AMD Radeon R9 M390
-OS X 10.11.6 (El Capitan)
-VMware Fusion 8
-10 Windows Home / 64 Bit, completely updated according to the settings / Windows Update.
I installed Fusion 8, installed 10 Windows using the ISO from Microsoft site and added VM Ware Tools. The installation went without any problems.
VMware for this Windows 10 VM parameters:
-CPU: 1 heart of processor
-RAM: 1 GB (shown as recommended in the control panel)
-Hard drive: 60 GB
I adapted only screen size settings in order to have Fusion / 10 Windows using the full resolution on the Retina display (Scaled high resolution) for unity and full screen. "Accelerate 3D graphics" it's on.
I'm now trying to use this virtual machine and it is extremely slow - both in full screen mode and one-stop shops. For example, after you click the icon on the start menu, it takes about 10 seconds until the start menu appear effectively. Chrome opening = 90 seconds. What switching applications or dragging of windows, you can sometimes watch the screen redraw. Sluggish _really_.
OS X monitor shows only moderate, activity should the CPU activity.
In the Windows 10 VM, the Task Manager / processes tab shows moderate (30%) Support CPU but memory, its use is constantly between 90 and 100% - even when no apps are open. However, no task stands out as a resource hog.
I went on "Pre-allocate disk space" in the control panel merge and change RAM of 2 GB to give VM more. Performance feels a whole little bit better, but the load high memory remains even when the system is idle.
This feels like a cheap $ 250, low-power PC. Is this normal?
I'd appreciate any help here.
1 GB of RAM for Windows 10 is far from weak. It will be 'run', but not well. Even 2 is pushing it. 1 processor is pushing it too.
It behaves like a PC $250 because that's essentially what you have given to resources.

iMac/El Capitan 10.11.3 Performance
Hello
My iMac is about seven years now, and as mentioned above, we do not have El Capitan 10.11.3. Since the last update, the boot process is excruciatingly slow as is the opening of applications such as: Numbers, Pages, Photos, system preferences, etc. We only used about 1/3 of our hard disk space (it's a 4 GB HD) and the CPU is 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.
I can do to improve performance, in particular, the boot process? As a tip, I did normal things like removing login items, removing unnecessary applications on "Dashboard", removal of office files, etc..
Thank you and best regards,
MB
Correction, our HD is 999,35 GBs.
