• Slow down the Macbook Air

  Hello

  I used a Macbook Air with OS X El Capitan 10.11.5 3 years and suddenly I discovered today that the system became considerably slow.

  Diagnosed with EtreCheck and he said that the performance of the system are "below average."

  Here are the details of the diagnosis.

  If you'd be grateful if someone can help guide me on the way which will resolve this return to a good performance, as we have?

  4 GB is kind of low for El Capitan, but you have one of the newer models, (wonderful) Mac which can not be updated if you get stuck here.  Do not ask too much of it.

  Your reading reports that you use some obsolete additions.  Any software that is marked in red in your report see if you can do something.  Update or decide it you really need.

• Cannot open the contacts on MacBook air

  I can't open the contacts on MacBook air (OS X Yosemite 10.10.5)

  Any solution?

  Good afternoon maorts,.

  I understand that you are not able to open the Contacts application on your MacBook Air running OS X Yosemite.   When this issue is produced?  Will there be any changes made to your computer?

  The first thing I would say is to restart your computer.  This system reset is often all that is needed.   If the initial restart does not resolve the problem, try to start your computer in safe mode.

  OS X Yosemite: start in safe mode

  If the problem still persists, if you use iCloud, check that your contacts are at www.icloud.com.

  Try to create a new user account.  Getting the Contacts app?  You can add a contact to it?  This will isolate the question to your user account or to a question of scale.

  OS X Yosemite: set up users on your Mac.

  If the problem turns out to be systemwide, then you should make a backup of your computer using Time Machine.

  Use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac

  Then you can reinstall OS X Yosemite or update your software if your MacBook Air is compatible.

  How to reinstall OS X
  
  

  OS X can be installed on the same version or an earlier version of Mac OS X, without deleting your data. You don't need to remove or disable the existing system first.

  1. Start of OS X Recovery now command-r immediately after start-up or that you restart your Mac. Release the keys when you see the Apple logo. Start-up is finished when you see the OS X Utilities window.
  2. Choose to reinstall OS X OS X Utilities window, and then follow the instructions on the screen.
  3. This installs the latest version of Mac OS X, which has already been installed on your Mac.

  maorts, please take a look at the resources offered here, try these initial troubleshooting steps and responds with the results in this regard.

  Take care.

• How do I disable Adobe Flash - too many sites have Flash ads that slow down the browser unless an analysis.

  Some pages contain 3, 4, 5 or more adobe flash ads running at the same time, which slows down the browser a lot. Then, if you happen to have several tabs open, the browser is dragging virtually interrupted and many times is not responding at all.

  I would like to be able to choose whether or not a page can run flash content - not it be something that works all the time for each page, with the only option being to kill the plugincontainer process in taskmanager - who kills even the Adobe Flash elements you can watch; like a youtube video.

  Why is there not a way to disable Adobe Flash in the browser? I have updated Firefox and Adobe Flash, but nowhere is there at - it an option to turn on or off according to your needs.

  A control can be added to the Internet Options that you can set to have a page request before it is allowed to run the Flash content? Having that kind of control would GREATLY increase the pleasure of sailing on several pages.

  Any information on how to do it, would be appreciated.

  Hello, this is already possible in firefox: go to firefox/tools > addons > plugins and shockwave flash to Activategame. then the plugin will be disabled by default but can be enabled on a site-by-site basis.

• Why FFx21, from the opening, thus creating three CACHE of INTERNET files duplicate (01, 02, 03 &amp; tot'ng 12 MB) slows down the site?

  On the 'OPENING' Firefox for the web, there is an initial use of 12 + MB of use via INTERNET CACHE files. These files show up, when using CCleaner, as... \_CACHE_001, 002, 003 each with a size of say 4 096 Ko. The browser seems to "lag" - particularly visible when I type in one of the available search bars... I tap and then wait for the letter or the word to display. In addition, Firefox crashed several times since the upgrade to the latest version (ffox 21). I have two images CCleaner printscreen to show files so useful, but not sure how to enter them here.

  Hello, these are the files where firefox stores its cache - you won't need CCleaner (in fact, it will be only slow down the things that you have already noticed, given that these files must be recreated after the next startup of the browser), you can also clear the cache with the mechanism built into firefox: How to clear the cache of Firefox

• Slow down the Audio and keep beat related Sections

  Hello people,

  I have a song that I would like to remix and I all set beat matching.  When I go to slow down the audio I lose my bearings.  Is there anyway that I can keep the sections that I beat matched and slow down the audio so these sections remain?

  For example, that the song is 120bpm and I have this rhythm corresponded perfectly.  If I have a loop of 4 bars and slow down the audio I have more 4 perfect bars.  I want to be able to slow down the audio and still have my bars 4 faultless.

  I hope that makes sense.

• Flex 2 network slows down the entire network

  I bought a Flex 2 a few weeks ago. Installed the software Office 365 and creative cloud by Adobe. Everything worked well on both networks, I connect to.

  Today, performance on the entire network is now gone to the dogs. At first, I suspected the provider or router so crossed all the routines of standard service (this disconnect, which reboot) again and again. Same face, deadly slow performance of several PC and Mac on the network.

  Then, I hit on the idea to close my Lenovo. Suddenly, network download speed of 2 MB/s and the ping from 2000 MS to more normal speeds returned.

  I restarted the Lenovo a couple of times, from 2, 4 GHz to 5 with the same result.

  At some point when I plugged the Lenovo directly into the modem (part of the diagnosis) direct speed seemed faster.

  Because the router works perfectly with all the other machines and I haven't changed a thing on it, and because the symptoms get carried away on the network when the Lenovo is cut, I can only assume that there is something to do with the Lenovo Flex 2 and how it communicates with the rest of the network.

  I should also add that I tried to plug an ethernet cable to make sure that it wasn't just a wireless thing. Still had the slow performance.

  I'm pulling my hair out over this, if I can't fix it, I can't work (no one in my office will be able to work) and will have to return the machine...

  Any ideas?

  Thank you...

  Thanks for the reply.

  After much pulling hair and analysis where the traffic was, it turns out it was a Microsoft cloud service a too aggressive drive that decided to download dozens of large files at the same time instead of in series. This excessive series of connections slowed down the rate of time and transfer of ping everything on the network. Disable updates for OneDrive during periods of work seems to have solved the problem.

  That said, working on this, I see that updates from Lenovo is continually a significant overhead. Do not understand why it takes so resources...

  Thanks again for the response...

• Prevent the Beep.vi slow down the VI

  Hello

  I'm working on a metronome that should run for a period of x with a frequency of x. The time is in seconds and rate.

  Whenever there is the beet, the VI must make a beep. This can be done easily by the beep.vi, but the standard for the beep.vi is to play one system.

  This is a fairly long tone (10 of Windows). And so, I want to put my own frequency and duration of the beep.

  But when I change this in the beep.vi, the VI will wait for the set time (msec) before it continues the vi. If it slows down the whole VI.

  Is there a way to make the beep.vi a sound signal with frequency and duration that I put, without that it slows down the VI?

  Thank you!

  Have the code "beep" performed asynchronously to your hand VI: have the VI in another loop and use a queue / notifier to notify the loop when playing the main loop.
