InDesign very slow to appear or to quit smoking
I have a 2.66 GHz Quad-core Intel Xeon Mac Pro with 3GBs of RAM. I use InDesign CS5. Last year, I ran InDesign CS4 on a Mac G5 with more RAM. On computers and both versions of InDesign, I have known the same frustratingly slow. I keep InDesign open in the background most of the time because I have an I am editor of the monthly newsletter, and I use InDesign for other projects as well. When I first open InDesign, it's pretty catchy, but when he is in the background for a while, not used, so I want to bring to the front to use it, I click the InDesign icon in the Dock or I'll use the command key and the Tab key to go to InDesign. Instead of instantly appear as do most other applications, it can take more than a minute for InDesign to be fully there. Wait and wait and InDesign is starting to show the menu, then toolbars, then the document, and finally, I can actually do something in InDesign.
The same thing happens when I want to quit InDesign if it is in the background rather than actively used. If I go to the icon in the Dock and choose QUIT to InDesign, it takes forever and sometimes he just left. I end up having to force quit. I thought what is InDesign CS5 and a faster Mac would eliminate this problem, but it continues. I don't understand. Is there something I can do to get InDesign to go faster when I want to highlight or leave when it's in the background?
There is a setting in InDesign Preferecens under Interface, it's called Live screen redraw, it is the default Immediate value. Maybe if you change it back, it can speed up a little?

Dear Adobe.
Yesterday, I installed the latest version of Flash Player that car appeared on my screen. Since I can't play video, and my system has become very slow. I have Mac OS Lion 10.7.5 and software is up to date. Before that everything worked beautifully. Can you please provide a link so I can uninstall the latest version only. Thank you. Stephen Kress. Melbourne. Australia
When you run the uninstall program, it allows to uninstall all versions of Flash Player.
If you want to revert to an old version after that, get it from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html

Mac keeps restarting and is very slow running
Why not keep restart my mac and works very slow since I installed El Capitan?
Most likely because you upgraded an already dysfunctional system without the first fix. Or your HARD drive may be faulty.
Try these in order to test your system after each see if it is back to normal:
1. a. reset the PRAM and NVRAM on your Mac.
b. Macs with Intel processors: reset of the controller (SMC) system management
2. restart the computer in Safe Mode, and then restart again, normally. If this does not help, then:
HD recovery start: restart the computer and after the buzzer, press on and press and hold the
COMMAND and R keys until it appears the Utilities menu screen.
3 fix the hard disk and permissions: select startup drive in the Utilities menu utility. Fix the hard drive and the permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears, select disk utility and press the continue button. After loading disk utility select it
back from Macintosh HD entry of the list on the left. Click first aid button in the toolbar. Wait for the operation
ends, then quit disk utility and back to the main menu.
4 reinstall OS X: restart from HD recovery Select reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, then click on the continue button.
Note : You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest to use Ethernet if possible because it's three times faster than wireless.
When you get it working properly, and then download and reinstall OS X El Capitan 10.11.3 Combo Update.

Very slow computer from El Capitan 10.11.3
I hope that someone can help you. My computer is very slow and unstable since the El Capitan 10.11.3 patch. I am on a MacBook Pro 15 "-end 2011. The computer is particularly slow in Safari, but was slower than normal as well. I backed up my files in Time Machine to an external drive before any troubleshooting, so I'm really happy about it. The person had me clear everything and go into recovery mode and reinstall the OS. After that I had problems with closing down and restart so I reinstalled again and just have not stopped since then. I don't him have NOT YET migrated all my files back and will not until I know that the system is stable. My laptop is functional but still just very slow. Can someone please help? I'm desperate! Thank you so much in advance!

Synology Diskstation short very slow with OSX
I use synology diskstation for 2 years and have never really found it to be very slow when it is connected to my mac pro retina book.
Plug NAS...
Synology NAS Office DS213J Bay 2 enclosure £159.99
Red WD 3 TB for NAS 3.5 inch desktop hard drive - OEM £89.00
3 TB Seagate 3.5 inch 7200 RPM 64 MB Cache hard SATA3 £89.99
2 drives installed - 1 set up in mirror
I measured the speeds and get 3 MB/s reading and writing on wi fi. Direct connection to a gigabit switch that directly relates to NAS both via CAT6 - makes about 35 MB/s reading and 50 MB/s in writing.
I read a review that has measured the same device and got a 74.5 MB/s write speed and a 56.4 MB/s read speed
When you run windows in bootcamp on the same machine, I get much better performance.
I tried to remove a drive (speed tests are the same for each single drive)
10.11.2 running OSX
Is there a particular issue or the goal or the question you are interested in here? It is clear that you are looking for performance and a few comparisons, but it's not clear (to me) where you're going with this. Can also check with Synology people, too.
A few generic comments follow...
In general... A Wi - Fi connection is slow, and Wi - Fi with interference makes even slower connections. Descent and with a tailwind, I expect a little more than 200 Mbps (megabits per second, not megabytes) with semi-recent-grade Wi - Fi 5 GHz dual-slot, assuming a backhaul wired on the gigabit NAS and assuming no interference from Wi - Fi or claim.
Rusty storage rotation is slow and subject to the configuration.
Red WD appears without RPM - "Intellipower", with some comments showing a player ~ 5400 RPM, which is quite slow and at no time access in the technical sheets. If a seller do not post access time and transfer speeds for a disk drive, the device is not intended to be a particularly fast device. WD indicates both in the note on the sheet, too.
For most RAID controllers, RAID-1 mirror means the two Scriptures - written to each disk in the mirror game - must fill in before the host i/o is complete. This slows down the write speed. If the RAID controller is intelligent - and not all RAID controllers are very smart, then it will give you the first available reading rates from the game of mirror, based on the position of rotation. Many will just take a drive and give you the e/s as the sector turns around, so you will be waiting on average a demi-revolution.
If you want a faster access to the storage, stay off WiFi and use two SSD storage or upgrade these disks to 15 K RPM disks configured as a RAID 0 striped. High-end and storage gear company - the older, hard-disk-based - gets its performance to have zillions of small discs of 15 K RPM configured with disk and controller wholesale large caches, controllers (by rotation-aware) smart and with RAID 10 storage configurations or similar.
To compare the performance of the device, the configuration of these benchmarks and what you are testing is important. Reference material, as well as the speeds measured since the test of Windows.

Hello world
I have a weird problem, my internet browser is very slow/unresponsive, but associated other online apps work perfectly. I tried chrome and internet explore. It is not the problem with the internet, I passage of Time warner to Comcast cable and both times the problem persists.
I play several games online, such as starcraft and steam games, and it works normally.

Hello shinji_45,
The performance of Internet Explorer problems are usually caused by defective modules. I suggest that you run Internet Explorer in Mode Add on No and check if you have the same problem.
To do this,
a. Click Start, point to programs, point to Accessories, point to system tools.
b. click Internet Explorer (No Add-ons).
c. If this resolves the problem, follow these steps to isolate the browser add-on that is causing the problem:
a. click Tools and then click Internet Options.
b. click on the tab programs, then click on Manage Add-ons.
c. click an add-on in the name list and then click on disable.
d. Repeat step c until you identify the add-on that is causing the problem.
If this solves the problem, this could be caused by an adware installed as add-on.
If this still does not address the problem, reset the Internet Explorer settings. Reset the Internet Explorer settings.
To use the feature reset the settings of Internet Explorer in the Control Panel, follow these steps:
a. Quit all programs, including Internet Explorer (if it is running).
b. Click Start, type the following command in the start search box and press ENTER:
Inetcpl.cpl
The Internet Options dialog box appears.
c. click on the Advanced tab.
d. Under Reset Internet Explorer settings, click Reset. Then click again on reset.
e. when Internet Explorer finishes reset settings, click close in the reset Internet Explorer settings dialog.
f. restart Internet Explorer.

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/reset-Internet-Explorer-7-settings
Warning: Reset the Internet Explorer settings can reset security settings or privacy settings that you have added to the list of Trusted Sites. Reset the Internet Explorer settings can also reset parental control settings. We recommend that you note these sites before you use the reset Internet Explorer settings.
Don't know what could really be the cause Chrome is slow. However, since browsers are slow, you should start solving this problem in the browser.

Internet MacBook becomes very slow
THE PROBLEM
A week ago from the internet on my Macbook has become very slow. Web sites load then, but it may take up to five minutes on some occasions, or even longer. This happens systematically 10 seconds to 5 minutes after the connection to the web. At first everything is super fast, then all pages/apps using the internet starts to turn.
ATTEMPTED SOLUTIONS
- Replaced the modem & router: I bought a new modem-router combo to replace my original separate modem and router, no change in question.
- Tried a third modem/router: a friend gave me his modem router to try and the same issue. (In both cases I had my ISP to update the MAC address)
- Tried other devices: I tried the connectivity to other devices (iphone & ipad) and found no problem. Speedtest app appears 32mbps to the low and 5 Mbps + constantly.
- Tried another browser: was using firefox, I tried Chrome - same question. In addition, any application on my computer using the web runs slowly, no browsers only.
- Tried to connect to the Internet through direct ethernet modem: no improvement
- Tried to restart the computer and the modem/router: it is 7 + times for two days with no change
- Tried to connect to the web via a mobile hotspot on my phone: problem persists.
- Updated my computer and all applications: no change
- I started in safeboot and the problem disappeared
GENERAL INFORMATION
- Model name: MacBook Pro
- Model identifier: MacBookPro8, 1
- Processor name: Intel Core i5
- Processor speed: 2.4 GHz
- Number of processors: 1
- Total number of cores: 2
- (By heart) L2 Cache: 256 KB
- L3 Cache: 3 MB
- Memory: 8 GB
- Running OSX El Capitan 10.11.6
- Modem router: Motorola 6580
- ISP: wow!
- The only recent change I did was update flash.
Thank you
Hello Indianajoe7,
Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. It is my understanding that the internet is slow on your MacBook Pro. I know how important internet speed can be for many applications and General everyday use. I'm happy to help you.
You did a great job trying to fix this yourself! Given that the problem didn't occur in safemode, our next step is to check your login items. Please follow the instructions below:
Important: To print these instructions, click the Share button in the Help window, and then choose print.
Test your login items
Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click users and groups.
Click on your account under the current user name, and then click connection points.
Make a list of the login items, you will need to remember later.
Select all the elements of connection, and then click the button Delete .
Choose the Apple menu > restart.
If this solves the problem, reopen the preferences users and groups, add the elements of connection one at a time and restart your Mac after the addition of each of them.
If the problem persists, follow the steps above to remove only the last element of connection that you added.

I checked the system, apparently the mouse works fine. The games are very slow to download, and it is almost impossible to play because the mouse is so slow.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).
- Do NOT click on the reset button on the start safe mode window or make changes.
Try disabling hardware acceleration in Firefox.

Scroll smoothly makes very slow scrolling
Since the version 15 (I think), the functionality of scrolling smoothly in Firefox makes very slow scrolling. Before that it was a much faster way. With the scroll wheel makes it easy to just go up or down a page, it is smooth, but terribly slow. With smooth scrolling turned off, it is all back to normal speed (as in Windows Explorer, but also in Internet explore when scrolling is quite normal speed). Downside with people with disabilities, of course it's all more jerky now.
All the drivers are up to date. Everything where I scrolling is not serious, the normal speed. Only Firefox is way to slow down with scrolling when Smooth Scrolling is enabled.Is it possible to change the speed of scrolling with active smooth scrolling?
Well, did some experiments and found a setting in everything: config that makes Smooth Scrolling fast and smooth: look in: config for mousewheel.min_line_scroll_amount. By default, which has a value of 5. I changed only in 50 and now smooth scrolling looks and feels like before.

My iPad WiFi Air video very slow loading same 3 full bar signal
My iPad WiFi Air video very slow loading same 3 full bar signal... Any suggestion?
Should I send to AppleCare or upgrade to the latest version of iOS?
Yes, update to the latest version, 9.3.1. Also here are a few general suggestions for problems of Wi - Fi. Suggest you start at the top and down, maybe they'll help...
(1) perform a forced reboot: hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons simultaneously for about 15-20 seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Leave the device to reboot.
(2) resetting the network settings: settings > general > reset > reset network settings. Join the network again.
(3) reboot router/Modem: unplug power for 2 minutes and reconnect. Update the Firmware on the router (support Web site of the manufacturer for a new FW check). Also try different bands (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) and different bandwidths (recommended for 2.4 to 20 MHz bandwidth).
(4) change of Google DNS: settings > Wi - Fi > click the network, delete all the numbers under DNS and enter 8.8.8.8 or otherwise 8.8.4.4
(5) disable the prioritization of device on the router if this feature is available.
(6) determine if other wireless network devices work well (other iOS devices, Mac, PC).
(7) try the device on another network, i.e., neighbors, the public coffee house, etc.
(8) to restore the device (ask for more details if you wish).

(9) go to the Apple Store for the evaluation of the material.

Satellite C660-1ZM is very slow
I recently fixed my laptop to its original state, so, nothing had been installed to this topic, it seems very slow, because it crashes or stuggles to load on several basic programs, sometimes it loads fine other times it just hangs, I installed several drivers in the list of Toshiba, but always remains the same.
Any advice?
Thank youAaron
What are the core programs for you?
What exactly happens?I think you which is your laptop quite slow. Preinstalled operating system must be configured correctly.
You must remove all the unnecessary stuff system, configure the startup option to avoid the long start-up and have better performance of the laptop.
