MacBook Pro 15 "end 2013 too slow performance
Hello world
My macbook pro 15 "end 2013 me294, Core i7 haswell 2.3 Ghz, 16 GB Ram, SSD PCI 256 GB, GT 750 m & Iris Pro.
Geek of multicore benchmarks is too less to another macbook even type (me 294).
It's my macbook: multi-core on 6000 landmarks
https://browser.primatelabs.com/v4/CPU/337791
https://browser.primatelabs.com/v4/CPU/337570
This is another of the same type (me 294): multi-core on 12000 landmarks
I reboot before benchmarks, I don't know why?
GeekBench is a crude tool that is useful for computers compare configured identically. Means "Identically configured" quite the same hardware running identically configured systems with identical changes, as appropriate.
As says Geekbench works best when it is the only application running. Comparing the performance of your Mac to others requires the abandonment of all other open applications in addition to process who can have no user interface.
To identify the processes that are running on your Mac in order to see how they affect the activity and performance of your Mac, use the activity monitor: use the activity monitor to your Mac - Apple Support.

MacBook pro 13 '' end 2011 performance problems and screen
Found a suggestion very useful to run EtreCheck for a complete overview on what is going inside my MBP... I'll also post a picture of the screen freezing and garbled, so I can get some tips on what to do. Thank you community! Nothing but love for Apple & Apple Experts!

The screenshot appears, but according to your description, this is clearly a hardware problem, or bad memory or a defect logic board. If you have replaced the memory modules with spare parts, please reinstall the original memory and see if there is an improvement.

MacBook Pro EtreCheck said below-average performance
I've seen people with a range of rotation post a list of less than average performance EtreCheck. I read on the limitation of the spotlight to documents and on uninstall security, in my case (I noticed that it much) of Symantec and uninstalling MacKeeper. I also have the Cocktail. Must I first uninstall all the people?
Everyone sees other problems? I've been on a Mac since 1987, but I'm a designer, I do not understand the report.
I have the beach ball on my Mac: a mid-2011, iMac 27 in., 16 GB of ram, running in mid-2012 El Cap 10.11.4 and a 15 MacBook Pro, 8 GB, same OS El Cap.
Any help is very appreciated, the slowless makes me crazy!

Bad performance on a Refurbished MacBook Pro?
Hello, I am a new user of Apple, and I bought a refurbished MacBook Pro 15 "retina, 2015, with the i7-4980HQ 4.0 GHz.
Before writing this post, I made a new installation of El Capitan (latest version downloaded from the Apple Store) after a total erasure of the reader.I tried a landmark (NovaBench and CineBench) and it seems that I will get the worst performance regarding the model with up to 3.8 GHz i7.
NovaBench:
[url =https://novabench.com/view/973284] [img] https://novabench.com/image/973284.png [/ i mg] [/ url]
CineBench:
Max 594 point CPU, while the 3.8 GHz are about 600 (I saw on a Youtube review).
I'm really not interested in the benchmark scores, this isn't a reference machine, but it is strange for me that my results are lower than the machine with 200 MHz compared to me.
I also tried on Windows installed with Boot Camp and the CPU, in Manager tasks, never reach 4 GHz, but max 3.9 GHz, also with heavy artillery support. In addition, with Cinebench and Prime95 (both in window), the Task Manager indicates maximum 3.0 GHz under full load.
I'm sorry for the length of the post, but I'm really scared about the integrity of this new machine. What do you think?
You have a guarantee, I presume. Have the dealer check it out. If it is a machine renovated Apple, contact Apple about the problem.
With any other information that you have provided us are not in a position to say something meaningful on your machine.

MacBook Pro lagg issues having an impact on the overall performance
Hello
I had problems with casual gal/minute gel on my macbook pro. The problem affects all programs and becomes especially annoying on programs such as Logic Pro X and Adobe Lightroom to photo editing and audio. For example on Logic Pro X will come back even if the error "system overload" did everything that I could to get a smoother performance on the program.
After a few days looking for a response, I decided to do a general cleaning of my drive. I got more than 50% empty but performance improves.
After that, I decided to do a new clean install of Mac OS x in the hope that this would solve my problems. I didn't not use time machine for backup, I just copied the files, I needed and have yet to put em turn the computer on.
After 2 days my problem has not yet been resolved, I tried the PRAM and reset SMC, but it has no effect. Even now as I type with only safari open I short freezes every 10-20 seconds approximately 0.5 s.
All solutions? I already ordered a new SATA cable to replace the one I think he could the cause of my problems.
Here are my specs, ram and SSD are updated.

I'm under that the latest version of El Capitan and the logic is version 10.2
Hoping someone can help me
If you still run with the clean install and you have the same problem. Then, you may be directed in the right direction. If you have an external drive Enclosures or cable usb to 2.5 sata adapter. You can put the internal drive in and check to see if the problem is still there. That will tell you if it is cable or not.

Should I upgrade my macbook pro at el capitan 2015? How is the performance on elcapitan? give your opinion! Thank you
My iMac with 8 GB or RAM 2011 works very well with the 10.11.2 was last updated. It is up to you to decide. It should work perfectly on almost any new machine of 2015.

I own a Macbook pro mid 2012. Now I want to increase the RAM of 4 GB to 8 GB, please suggest if this update will help me to improve my performance to macbook.
It will help in cases where the applications require more than 4 GB of RAM. Otherwise, there will be no noticeable difference. If you really want to increase the speed, an SSD is the best option. They cost about 3 x's + more than a traditional HDD of same capacity...
Ciao.

Satisfactory performance of the MacBook Pro? (a) ?
I have a Macbook Pro (mid-2012) with 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 processor, 16 GB of RAM and an Intel HD 4000 1536 MG graphics card. My question is if I get a satisfactory performance CC running?
Edit an image in Photoshop... Yes
Edit a HiDef video file in Premiere Pro... probably not
Depends on what you are doing

Hello members of the community.
As of recently, I have noticed some glitches when feeding on my MacBook or awakened from his sleep.
The colors are distorted, usually with pink, green, or yellow blobs. Blobs cannot entirely replace the colors, they appear to be contained in a element would normally be. For example. the menu bar will be partially pink and white, but pink does not leave the menu bar in this area, and the Office has green lines on it.
I tried to take a screenshot, but the problem resolves in about 20 seconds, but it's a recurring problem.
It happens when I wake up, connection or not. I had also certain powers serious and problems of performance, such that my MagSafe LED would not illuminate when plugged on rare occasions, fan could turn unnecessarily, graphics performance were SUPER slow, and the health of my battery was running out quickly. I actually ran a report on the system at 2 different times and my quality of full load is depleting of 1.2% per charge cycle, which is very worrying. I went from 6281 mAh mAh 6138 maximum capacity after two cycles of load. I'm tracking closely it because at this rate, my battery will survive only at load cycles about 150 instead of the 1000 expected, gives me the idea that this could very well be a bad battery. The computer is also warm to the touch while you sleep, not connected to the power supply. I NAP active but even taking into account should not be hotter my iPhone did the same thing.
I have reset the SMC, and it solved a couple of problems. The charger works fine now and my performance improved considerably (which made me feel better, either it is a high-performance laptop, a 11-inch MacBook Air should not he surpass), and battery life has improved. I feel even if it uses a lot of power in his sleep. Maybe I need to turn off the NAP and see if that makes a difference. The graphic bug still persists however, and I don't have enough time to see if the max battery is depleting again.
In regards to the bug, is there something that can be done? Basically, I want to assure you that I took all appropriate measures or if someone else has this problem to see if it can be software related instead of my computer.
I have the entry level MacBook Pro with the retina, last generation.
Any constructive contribution welcome!
See you soon.

MacBook Pro not mounting external hard drive
My Macbook Pro (early 2015, running Mac OS Sierra) is not able to mount my [new] external hard drive (Seagate Backup Slim). It shows up in disk utility, but the volume seems shady. Nothing happens by pressing the command mount or performing first aid. Kindly help me out here.
Hi vishesh97,
Welcome to the communities of Apple Support!
We understand your question that you have a new external hard drive, a backup Slim Seagate, which does not appear when you connect to your MacBook Pro.
Allows because it is a new hard drive, try to clear the disc first and formatting for Mac OS extended (journaled). The instructions for this process are found in the article below:
For Mac disk utility: delete a volume using disk utility
See you soon!

soon my first macbook pro purchase. Designer. Help
Hey there guys!
I will buy my first Macbook pro soon.
I am a student of Visual communication, which means that I work a lot with Adobe
(Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, After Effect, esc.)
I mean, photo-manipulation, illustration, video art... heavy files.
While Mac should I buy? What CPU? is the difference between graphics cards questions?
and how it will affect my work?
Thank you!
My philosophy has always been to buy the best that I can afford both. This would mean, for me, a maxed out 15 "MacBook Pro (which is what I bought this last June).
But I wonder: do you really need a laptop (MacBook Pro) or something like an iMac would work for you?
You get better performance with the iMac, everything simply because you are not paid for the necessary solidity with a laptop. You also get a larger screen, faster processor and more memory (32GB available).

How can I increase the RAM on my MacBook Pro?
I want to speed up my Mac Book Pro end 2008 performance. Can I get rid of many languages to free up memory, and this will do the trick? How can I do?
You're talking about memory?
Or the disk storage?
Both can be increased. Get rid of unnecessary languages will not increase memory and will only increase a bit of storage available.
To upgrade the memory see the following (8GB (2x4GB is max))
