very slow Mac
My iMac os 10.7.5. has worked so so slow. Internet and in-house programs. so went to drive utilities check the disc and everything was ok. I then noticed four s dmg with Installer below. I don't know what they are except that they are in a temporary folder. When I go to eject or move to trash message says "disc"BYeuUz.dmg"cannot be disassembled. Make sure that all applications and files are closed on this disc"there are more than four of those files, they have changed as well. Does anyone have this problem and this could be the reason for the slowness

End of 2012 very slow Mac. Etrecheck joint
I have a Mac to end 2012, El Capitan, which has been gradually running slower and slower. It seems preferable, once he is fully initialized, but it takes that which feels like an age to actually start, and if I try to open applications such as Mail, Safari. Finder etc., I sometimes get the beachball for several minutes. I ran a couple of Etrechecks for beachballing and the other for the computer is too slow. The disk information section seems worrying, but I'm not really sure what I'm looking at in the Etrecheck, so some constructive advice would be welcome.
Thank you very much in anticipation.

If you do not have a backup, copy both of your documents on a external drive NOW.
Then go to an authorized Apple store or repair shop and have the hard drive replaced.
If possible, take the opportunity to replace the old hard drive with an SSD. You will be amazed at your 'new' machine. It's like night and day.

It takes forever to write (recognized by the application) and send a message. This question has recently begun, but it becomes more and more so. It's very frustrating so please help!
May be a corrupt .plist.
Make a backup, preferably 2 backups on 2 separate drives.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user folder. With this Finder window as the windshield, select Finder/display/display options for presenting or order - J. When the display options opens, check "show the library folder. This should make your visible user library folder in your user folder. Select the library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.iChat.plist. Move the .plist on your desktop.
Restart your computer, open the application and test. If it works fine, delete the plist for the office.
If the application is the same, return the .plist where you got it, crushing the latest.
If this does not work, repeat the above, but remove the com.apple.imagent.plist
Thank you Leonie and Ralph Johns (UK) , that some information contained in the present.

Mac Mini became very slow all of a sudden
This morning, my Mac Mini became very, very slow. It's a 2009 with 4 GB of RAM and hdd 120Gb standard.
I run with a keyboard and bluetooth mouse and due to its slowness, I wanted to run the hardware test to see what was wrong. (As is always the original HARD disk, I am wary of its remaining life expectancy). However, everything I try, I can't start anything on the mini as a normal reboot. If I have D, hold down option-D, hold SHIFT to safe mode, nothing seems to influence his start-up.
Any thoughts? And also, suggestions of things to check?

Since the upgrade to El Capitan, my Mac is VERY slow.
I just have to upgrade Yosemite El Capitan. Since the upgrade, my Mac is VERY slow. Spend a lot of time with the spinning beach ball, and slow to change application.
Why? What should do?
Download and run EtreCheck, created by one of his own assistants here in CSA. It is a diagnostic tool that is very useful for us to find problems. It will also give us additional specifications on your Mac. After his execution after the logfile here. It will never contain any personal information.

My mac mini (mid-2010) speed/performance is very slow - think of it as a result of letting my kids do "whatever" about it in recent years. Need help, consolidate the files, software updates, etc. in order to improve the speed and performance. You will also need to get data out of old PowerBook G4.

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.

Contrary to what you read, displaying stuff "etrecheck" this site is not the right way to get help.
When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is particularly bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.
These must be run as administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Run 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.
Each message in the journal begins with the date and time when it was entered. Highlight date back to the time you noted above.
Select the messages entered since then until the end of the episode, or until they begin to repeat, whichever comes first.
Copy messages 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 all this is useless to solve any 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, may 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.
