my computer runs very slowly - takes 5 to 6 minutes to connect to the e-mail.
The problem is to connect to the internet or e-mail, I have to wait long before you connect. This grit: about 2 weeks ago when all slowed.
Hi Milly,.
Adding valuable suggestions from Steve, check to see if the following helps you.
Is it only the internet connection that takes time or any slow computer?
If it's the Internet, see the following article.
Why is my Internet connection so slow?
If it's the computer, see this article.

I updated my drivers and now my computer runs very slowly. How to solve the problem?
I've recently updated my Intel graphics driver and my drivers Nvidia because they were terribly outdated. As a result, I am able to run some games that I couldn't run before, but my computer became very slow. Now, the startup time is significantly slower, and the worst part is that the actual performance of the system is slower. I checked in the Task Manager, and my physical memory constantly rotates between 40 and 60% (I have 8 GB of RAM, Windows 7) without any game or program being open, except the web browser and Skype.
What is perhaps the reason for this problem? Is certainly the problem in the drivers? How to solve the problem?
"My graphics card is GEFORCE GTX 660 M. Is it compatible with the latest driver? »
Ah! A laptop computer. With laptops, it is generally better to download the driver from the mfg, not Nvidia.
This is because the computer laptop mfg bring changes that can make the improper generic Nvidia driver.
and while I always count should not slow down the system... You never know.
"What services I need to run.
Just to keep the correct terminology-Services is the area where you stopped the service of bitlocker.
The start is where you keep things from loading when you start in Windows.
-Most of the time what's in Startup deactivation is something personal need, but there are some things that
I must be on the left.
I leave the Intel common user interfaceand Installshield update service, mainly because I don't bother
Discover what they are doing.
I also let anti-virus, Realtek audio, software profile keyboard and a few other things active.
I don't have Adobe Flash loading with Windows, but I don't use it a lot, and when I do the software that
uses it it launches automatically.
The bottom line here is that if you have software that you use all the time, it is more convenient to have it start with
Windows.
-Concerning the Services. This also has to do with personal preferences to a certain extent, but most things can be left alone.
I do not use the Services tab in the Configuration of the system, because I think it's only a one time adjustment.
(Clean boot, linked earlier, is the best tool for the verification of conflicts with Services)
To stop or disable a Service manually, tap - services.msc - in the run command to open
the main window of Services.
There is an Adobe Flash update in Services that should be kept, but when Adobe makes an update
I select the option notify me, but not to install it automatically.
I always preferred this with any updates, including Windows updates as there is less chance of a corrupt
Update If you're aware, it happens and do not do something intensive system while the update is being installed, particularly when an update requires a restart to complete.
-Registry. In the control run, type - regedit - and browse the registry with the file path in the
previous post and follow the instructions. You can save the key you are modify if you wish, that the use of the
backup to change the value to what is current would be faster than navigating to the key again.
-When playing around with things you are not familiar with creating a System Restore point before you
making these changes is a good insurance policy.
If you don't know how to create a system restore point - time to do some research.
In fact, all of the above is covered by tons of tutorials out there in the www.
SSD vs HDD - the specifications of the system for you the machine should be in your user manual or on the
MFG web site.
Prefetch is useful with HARD drive, because it improves performance somewhat, but read-ahead is not really necessary with SSD.
and can reduce the life expectancy SSD a bit (there is debate on gravity)
More research for more details. D
-If you use a HARD disk and that you have enabled Prefetch, the Prefetch will be rebuilt over time, if you delete the files.
-Here's another tip for when you are not sure of the impact of deleting files.
Rename file/folder. You can do something like add another couple of P to the front, or a 1a which will move
the file to the top of the window. If nothing is wrong in the next few days, you can delete the folder.
This method protects to empty the trash accidentally and lose the file/folder.
-Speaking of deleting the file. A great TEMP folder can slow things way down.
Run Windows, Disk Cleanup . This will remove many files in the Temp folder.
Or, for a full, clean, go to the - your User\AppData\Local\Temp
Open the Temp folder and delete anything that can be deleted (impossible to delete the files that are used).
-Defragment your HARD drive
-Run the Zig - zag Kit you'd use again and analyze the results.
It was a long, huh!

I have Windows Vista 32-bit 2.4Ghs HP M91501, I had to reformat due to the error of hard disk. After formatting the PC, I went online to play or surf the internet is slow. I move fast and Lupe moves. I tried to highlight something and it takes up to 20 seconds before it highlites the message. When I try to play Call of duty online I play in slow motion. Called Charter they did a speed test shows speed 11 Mbit/s download and 1 Mbps of download speed. All the solutions to this important really appriciated your feed back...
I hope that Super Antispyware has given you the opportunity to remove those things. Since your initial Malware scan came clean, it is likely that located SuperAntispyware cookies only track, which are odious, but generally not a threat from System.
It is possible that you have apps which unknown to you, that run automatically in the background whenever you start your program. It is good to check if they are legitimate and necessary to launch when you start your PC.
Start button, click on you. In the run box, type: msconfig.exe
A System Configuration tool runs. Go to the Startup tab. You will find a list of applications that are set to run every time your PC starts. If you recognize all of them, use Google to help identify their purpose. Many times, you can open the application that is in question and prevent the application from starting. For example, on my system, I see that Java runs once more a verification tool to update each time you start. In this case, I can set my preferences Java Panel, select Java and uncheck automatically search for updates.
I also use OpenOffice and it wants to run a startup of service to reduce the time that openoffice requires to open. I don't really want something constantly running in the background to save me a few seconds to open the application. Then I go to Google to find out where the switch is to disable this "feature".
If you have unwanted applications running in the background, it is best to either uninstall, our to disable the option that allows them to run at startup. Although you could definitely "uncheck" the application through msconfig.exe, it is essentially a tool of troubleshoouting and not intended for the struggle of the apps (even if you do).
You can always uncheck/check again on this list to see their impact when you then restart your PC.
Once you have verified that apps that are set to start, you can run Windows Task Manager and scroll elements in the process and Services tabs to see what is running. The Services tab can be pretty intimidating to investigate on (there is a lot of misinformation the ' net), so if you are unsure about the services listed, it is best to ask or to jump on this area.

How can I reduce what is running in the background? How can I know about the enigmatic ID that I need the program running?
Click Start, run and type msconfig.
On the Startup tab, uncheck what you think that you don't need running at startup.
Then run a virus scan and AntiSpyware - you can find ones that are free on the net and and make sure you have a firewall too.
Press alt-ctrl-del to bring up the Task Manager and close everything that is running that you think are also unnecessary.
Overall be careful; confirm and backup before doing the things mentioned.

Please could you help me because I can't afford to upgrade my laptop at the moment?
I tried to uninstall as many unwanted programs on the computer and find myself with a 23.7 GB free on the hard drive.
It's kinda an old laptop now, but I try to get the most possible out of him in this moment so plase help meThank you
To be honest I n don't know what you want at the moment.
You want to upgrade your laptop or you want to make Windows faster?I put t know what programs you have installed, but after you remove all the programs you need t n you should clean your system using CCleaner.
Also disable any startup programs you start n t need in msconfig and start menu folder. Don t forget to defragment your HARD drive.
In the worst cases, you need to reinstall Windows. Not all Windows problems can be solved without complete new installation.Last but not least the Equium L10 can be upgraded to 1 GB of RAM. This can also help you to make Windows faster.

Start in Safe Mode , and then repair your hard disk and permissions:
Fix the hard disk and permissions before Lion
Boot from your OS X install disk. After the installer loads, choose your language and click on the button continue. When the menu bar appears select utility drive in the Utilities menu. After that the charges of THE select your entry from hard drive (mfgr. ID and car size) in the list on the left. In the status area, you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is faulty or has failed. (State SMART is not reported on external drives Firewire or USB). If the drive is "verified", then select your OS X volume in the list on the left (subentries under the entry for the road), click the first aid tab, then click the repair disk button. If THE reports any errors that have been corrected, and then run repair disk again until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, click repair permissions. Wait until the operation is complete, then exit FROM and return to the installer.
Repair the hard drive - Lion-Lion/mountain/Mavericks

Restart the computer and after the buzzer, press on and hold down the COMMAND and R until it appears the screen of Menu utilities. Otherwise, restart the computer and after the buzzer, press on and hold down the OPTION key until the Boot Manager screen. Select recovery HD disk icon and click on the button below.
When the recovery menu appears, select disk utility. After that the charges of THE select your entry from hard drive (mfgr. ID and car size) in the list on the left. In the status area, you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is faulty or has failed.

If THE reports any errors that have been corrected, and then run repair disk again until no errors are reported. If no error is not reported, then click repair permissions. Wait until the operation is complete, then exit FROM and return to the main menu. Select restart from the Apple menu.
Restart your computer normally and see if it helped at all. Then do little maintenance:
For disk utility can't handle situations, the best third party is Disk Warriorutility; Fixed DW only for problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by the corruption of directory; Warrior drive 4.x is now compatible with Intel Mac.
Note: Alsoft ships DW on a bootable DVD that will boot Mac running Snow Leopard or earlier. He cannot start Mac that came with Lion or later preinstalled, however, DW will work on these models.
Suggestions for OS X maintenance
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are supposed to take place on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. Maintenance scripts that are run at the beginning AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep). If this isn't the case, then a great solution is to download and install a shareware like Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacronor Anacron utility that will automate the maintenance regardless of whether activity if the computer is off or asleep. Dependence on third-party utilities to run periodic maintenance scripts has been significantly reduced since Tiger. These utilities have little or no functionality with Snow Leopard or later version, and must not be installed.
OS X automatically defrags files smaller than 20 MB in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files it little need to defragment the hard drive.
Under no circumstances should you install operating MacPaw or ZeoBit software (CleanMyMac/CleanMyDrive or Mac Keeper, respectively.) You don't need special software to keep your computer.

The following comes from user stevejobsfan0123. I made minor changes to adapt to this presentation.
Difficulty a few pop ups browser that supported Safari
Common pop - ups include a message saying that the Government has taken over your computer and you pay release (often called "Moneypak"), or a false message saying that your computer has been infected and you need to call a number of tech support (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it to be resolved. First of all, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and that your computer has not been assigned. This "hack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so don't pay not money, call number, or provide personal information. This article will give an overview of the solution to remove the pop-up window.
Quit Safari
Usually, these pop-ups will not go by clicking 'OK' or 'Cancel '. In addition, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in grey, including the option to leave Safari. You'll probably force quit Safari. To do this, press command + option + ESC, select Safari, press on force quit.
Relaunch Safari
If you restart Safari, the page will reopen. To avoid this, hold the "Shift" key when opening Safari. This will prevent windows since the last time that Safari was running since the reopening.
It will not work in all cases. The SHIFT key must be maintained at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window is displayed again. In these circumstances, after force quit Safari, turn off Wi - Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then restart Safari normally. He'll try to reload the malicious Web page, but without a connection, it will not be able to. Leave this page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com and try to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet and the page that you entered is displayed rather than the malicious.
An excellent link to read is Tom Reed Mac Guide of malicious programs.
Also, visit the FAQ XLab and read of detection and avoid malicious software and spyware.
Check out these articles from Apple:
Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
OS X Lion-Protect your Mac against malicious software
OS X Lion mountain - protect your Mac against malicious software
OS X Mavericks-Protect your Mac against malicious software
On the quarantine of file under OS X
If you need antivirus protection Thomas Reed recommends to use ClamXAV. (Thanks to Thomas Reed to this recommendation.)
The user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
The facts are:
1. There is no anti-malware software can detect 100% of malware out there.
2. There is no anti-malware that can detect all targeting the Mac.
3. the best way to prevent breaches the most is for you as the user is aware that
the most successful malware attacks rely on sophisticated social engineering
techniques preying on human greed, * and fear.
4 Internet pop-up windows telling the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
your computer is designed to trick you into installing their malware thinking it's a
protection against malware.
5. some of the anti-malware market products are worse than malware
go where they are supposed to protect you.
6. be careful where you go on the internet.
7. don't download anything from sites, you know are safe.
8 avoid links that you receive in email, always be wary, even if you get something
you think a friend is, but that you did not expect.
9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume that it is malware.
Troubleshooting Applications
I recommend that you download a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX, Mavericks Cache Cleaneror hiding a Cocktail that you can use to delete the former newspapers and archives, cleaning, etc. Corrupted cache, logs or temporary files can slow down the application or OS X crashes and panics of the kernel.
If you have leopard snow or leopard, then for similar repairs install Applejackfreeware utility. If you do not start in OS X, you can boot into single-user mode , where you can run Applejack to make a set of routines for repair and maintenance of the command line. Note that it takes 1.5 AppleJack for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. Applejack does not work with Lion and later versions.
Basic backup
For some people, Time Machine will be more than enough. Time Machine is part of Mac OS X. There are two components:
1. a panel of Time Machine preferences as part of the system of preferences;
2. a request for Time Machine, located in the Applications folder. It's
used to manage backups and restore backups. Time Machine
requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the
drive being backed up.
You can also get an external drive at least equal to the size hard disk internal and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the disk utility's restore option. You can also create and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (the order is not significant):
2. get backup
5. Synk Pro
6. Tri-Backup
Visit The FAQ XLab and read the FAQ on the backup and restore. Also read How to back up and restore your files. For using Time Machine, visit FAQ Time Machine of Pondini for help with all this time Machine.
Referenced software can be found at MacUpdate .
Additional tips
Make sure you have a sufficient amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run simultaneously. Make sure to leave a minimum of 10% of the capacity of the hard disk as free space.
Add more RAM. If your computer less than 2 GB of RAM and you use OS X Leopard or later, then you can do it with more RAM. Snow Leopard and Lion works much better with 4 GB of RAM that is their system. Most concurrent applications, that you tend to use the more RAM you should have.
Always have at least 15 GB, or 10% of the capacity of your hard disk as free space, the largest. OS X frequently accesses your hard disk, so offering enough free space will keep things slow down.
Check for applications that may be hogging the CPU:
Before Mavericks
Open the activity monitor in the Utilities folder. Select all processes in the drop process . Click the % CPU column heading twice to display in descending order. If find you a process that uses a large amount of time processor (> = 70,) then select the process, and then click the quit icon in the toolbar. Click the force quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Don't forget to mention the name of the runaway process, so you can find the cause of the problem.
Mavericks and later versions
Open the activity monitor in the Utilities folder. Select all processes in the menu display . Click the CPU tab in the toolbar. Click the % CPU column heading twice to display in descending order. If find you a process that uses a large amount of time processor (> = 70,) then select the process, and then click the quit icon in the toolbar. Click the force quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Don't forget to mention the name of the runaway process, so you can find the cause of the problem.
This problem occurs often because of a corrupted cache or the preferences file or an attempt to write in a corrupted log file.

HP 15 laptop: running very slowly
Laptop is running very slowly since the day I bought it. Crash games, flash player crashes several times per day.
I called HP support before and they took over my computer by remote access. They scanned with Malwarebytes and CCcleaner. It does not yet compare with the speed of my old Toshiba with Windows 7, as I earn 8.1 installed on my HP. It takes six or seven seconds to get to a new site when you surf, my videos are constantly trolling and slow reading. I do not have a lot of game and especially surfing.
Any other suggestions?

MacBook Pro (3-inches, mid-2012) suddenly started running very slowly; Beach balls very common
About a week and a half, it started running very slowly with the spinning beach balls popping up all the time. This reminds me of how when I have too many tabs of the browser as in the past, but now, even with browsers had closed, open Word or Skype is really slow. (I'm sorry for any confusing formulation; I'm not very computer customer connected, unfortunately!)
Some of the things I've tried so far and EtreCheck below):
-safe mode
-detection of hardware problems (control + D)
-reset the PRAM
-using the utility disc for repair/first care; also check
-wipe the hard drive and reinstalling original OS X Lion (was still slow with beach balls; I tried to install OS X El Capitan to see if that would help, but installation could not finish)
-wipe the hard drive and restarting from a backup previous (one month before the problems started)

Thank you in advance for your answers - I'm just at a loss for what could be the real problem!
You Mbps HARD drive is suspect. Start the recovery (COMMAND-R) partition and select in menu 4 disk utility. Run disk utility > first aid > repair.
Unrelated, but your battery has seen a lot of use. I suggest to replace.
Ciao.

Hello
I had problems with the Messages from Apple these days. The application runs very slowly. When I try to type a new message, roulette rises and the application crashes. Or sometimes he will stop in the middle of typing and then catch up later. Switching between messages is also very slow.
Any advice?
Please launch 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.
Click on the clear view icon in the toolbar. Then take an action that does not work the way you expect. Select all of the lines that appear in the Console window. Copy 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 everything that is not relevant to solve a 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 or e-mail address, can 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.
