Really slow Mac Mini on the first commissioning

I bought my Mac Mini because the old PC had an age to start up. Now, my Mac Mini is even worse. I also have an old portable (2010) I installed Windows 10 on, and it is much faster than my Mac! W10 is up and running on browser/email before Mac even gets to the user login page!

Advice on other posts, I ran EtreCheck and updated a printer with the HP software problem. Got sorted and it really helped. But its just as bad party, ran EtreCheck again, the results below, but while the Mac was still loading up, it's done intentionally to see if I can find what it keeps. There is nothing obvious in this, can we see something that miss me it please.

(Aware there are other posts like this but saw someone do an admonition to add their isses at the same post accusing them of 'thread-jacking')

I suggest you remove the Avast software according to the instructions of developers. You need anti-virus software on your Mac and often through other reports Avast here seems regarded as a cause of potential problems.

If you do remove it, restart the Mac and the test. If it makes any difference once Avast is removed, you can always reinstall it if you feel that you need (even if you haven't).

  • Mac Mini loses the connection to the internal hard drive

    Hello

    I got in trouble once per day or almost one year that my Mini mac interrupts the communication with the hard drive. You can work away and all of a sudden all gel applications. Say, you happen to have a terminal open, if you try to execute commands in / sbin as stop or something like that, it is to say that you don't have access to the files with an error like this:

    bash: / sbin/shutdown: device not configured

    Finally the Terminal Server session freezes as well.

    I used the Apple Diagnostics for all the materials and it test verifies all very well. I bought and installed a copy of TechTools Pro (v8.0.3 build 1967) and he reported no problem whatsoever with everything. To be on the safe side, I replaced the memory, still no luck.

    I've lived a lot of system updates and none of them seem to have solved the problem. I am currently on OS X El Capitan v10.11.5 Beta (15F18c). Yes I know it's beta, but this problem before any release of El Capitan.

    The most reliable way to reduce the appearance of it during my work day is a reboot planned each night. For one reason or another, which reduces the frequency.

    I am at a loss on how to fix this and would appreciate any advice.

    Material is a Mac mini (end of 2012), the processor is an Intel Core i5 2.5 GHz, is now 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 memory, graphic is Intel HD Graphics 4000 1536 MB, storage is a 500.11 SATA GB Apple drive ST500LM012 HARD drive

    Thanks in advance.

    Maybe a bad connection tight to the HD. It could be the end of the water which connects to the system board. I had similar symptoms on my Mini 2012 and it is in this regard.  Like you if I stop and then after awhile restarted, it would be OK for a while.

    It could also be a problem with the HD

  • Problem with the tool of markup for text editing in Adobe Pro XI on a Mac automatically remove the first character

    When I use the markup of text editing tool, I pointed out a word/phrase/sentence and then start typing in the replacement, the first letter is automatically highlighted and then removed when the second letter is typed. Thus, each word/phrase/sentence I type is missing in his first letter. Very annoying and has just started happening recently.

    Someone else encountered this?

    No idea how to solve this problem?

    I use a Mac.

  • HTML5 animation plays really slow when put on the scale to fit

    I have a simple Flash animation which is quite large, 2048 x 1536 px, and I exported it to HTML5. Everything looks good in the browser, but when I DPS uses web content of overlay and choose "Content to adapt to the scale", the animation plays really really slow.

    Here you can see the original animation: http://www.copycat.no/presentasjon/2/

    When the scaling to fit the web content overlay time about three times slower as it should. What is the reason for this?

    I created the original animation basically as I did to make all sharp and vivid images on the Retina screens, and it works. Everything is great, apart from the animation plays much too slow.

    There is no difference in rendering between Adobe Content Viewer and published applications.

    Basically, you need to resize your content. This isn't a limitation of DPS, it is simple mechanics that you ask web control on iOS do. Not only has she animate, but there across the content as it goes along. This is not an efficient way of doing things.

    If you are publishing with several issue, you can create two distinct formats associated with the content web different resolution to cover the low - and high resolution Retina displays. If you request a single-edition you will need to create a version of SD and HD of your simple editing application, given that our article multi-resolution function does not support overlays multi-resolution web.

  • When I include a Table of contents in my project and get an overview of the project, it always starts with a blank slide that contains an arrow to 'start '. That's fine, but I really want to start with the first slide in the deck. How to change that?

    The Captivate TOC suggests that the first slide must be 'System Basics title Page'. But instead, I get the screen below. You must click on the arrow to start the course. Not terrible, but I'd rather just start with my first slide. Ideas?

    CaptivateTOC.pngResultingStartPage.png

    If this isn't HTML, you will have to leave checked AutoPlay. Normally SWF-output supports automatic playback. Check the preview in the browser instead of draft Preview.

  • First elements 11 Mac trial expires the first launch

    Hello

    I downloaded the trail of Adobe first Elements 11 for Mac today while I'm looking for an alternative to iMovie.

    I installed it as soon as it was over and everything went well.  I did the party registration of trail and created and Adobe account but when first elements 11 started, I got a pop-up saying my trial has expired and I only have it a left launch!  What?  Is it really only a single launch trial or something was twisted?

    I like the look of it until now, but come on, surely I can get more than a single launch of the trial?

    Using Mac OSX 10.8.2 and never tried a trail from Adobe before, so it's not a legacy install or anything like that.

    Thank you

    Andy

    MikeWasowski you want to install the trial version on another computer if your trial period has expired.  There is no way to extend the trial period.  For more details, please see the evaluation expired at the beginning - Adobe http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/trial-software-expired-early.htmlversion.
