Why do I get "installers" added randomly to my process?

I have an early 2009 iMac 24 inch.  I installed el Capitan, and about a month later, I had performance problems.  I downloaded memory clean and discovered that I was running out of RAM. So, I added 4 gigabytes of ram for a total of 8 GB.  But I still occasionally issues, ending up with about 400 MB of RAM even with the 8 GB.  I looked at my process in Activity Monitor and discovered several "installers" taking up many gigs of memory processor. I left these processes, but every day or so, another "heating" is displayed. Given that I keep clean memory and open activity monitor, I left these process and I am very well.  The question is why do I get these installers added to the memory of my processor?

Hi jeffh212,

Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. Based on what you said, it seems that you have found processes that start running their own, you will need to close.
There are a few ways this can happen. I would recommend read you these articles, they explain how you can disable some elements of opening and see if the process of return.

OS X El Capitan: items open automatically when you connect

Another thing you can do is to start in safe mode to disable all elements of connection and putting into service, if the problem persists.
Try safe mode if your Mac does not end commissioning - Apple Support

See you soon.

  • Why do I get pop ups randomly to upgrade my adobe flash player in firefox?

    Here is the link that is in the browser: Please update Adobe Flash Player

    I checked on netcraft.com and he said: it is owned by Amazon. So I'm a bit confused why they would ask for me to update. Amazon has Adobe?

    When I looked I found sites calling a pop up virus and how to remove it. So, I wanted to get the subject by the creators.

    P. S.

    Sorry if I put this in the wrong community.

    There is no such thing as 'Flash Player Pro'; no Adobe, or anyone else.

    It is very difficult to communicate with the creators of Trojans, viruses, or other malware.

    The Adobe legal team may be able to have these sites down, but it won't be long until they pop up again under a different name.

    The best you can do is to be vigilant and keep your system clean.

    Hey Roman man,

    I understand that you see a prompt for your login keychain. I can't anymore how do I fix this.

    Now if you have recently changed your password for your Mac, then the password for your keychain will need to be updated. You can make this change in the Keychain Access application. If you do not know the password, then you need to reset the password in the keychain. Take a look at the article below for specific details get this sorted out.

  • Why do I get restore window when opening firefox since the update

    Why do I get restore window when opening firefox since the update. I don't want to restore but it appears every time instead of my homepage as shown

    A likely cause is that you first close all Firefox Windows and then close the Firefox application.

    Some noted that closing of Firefox (Firefox > Quit) while the browser window is always open works for them.

    Satellite T130 - 10G Touchpad screen pointer gets stuck in random patterns and laptop computer must be restarted to restore functionality
    The center of the causes of "touchpad button" toggle switch by pressing the touchpad pointer to enter a random State like two fingers to zoom.

    Sometimes, he'll be back to normal, but most of the time the computer should be put to sleep or restarted to restore functionality.

    a. I tried turn off all touch pad feature one item at a time and all, he still has some weird random State.
    (Did not try the impossible combination need $ to be interested but went to the 90% level)

    b. I tried disable the touch pad buttons offending and only using the mode tap the buttons and the problem still persist.

    c. Finally, tried bending the entire keyboard instead of pressing the buttons and it has also created the problem.

    This leads me to believe either the power key or flexion of the entire keyboard is originally is

    a. flexion of the touch pad causing the driver getting into a crazy State or require a recalibration.

    b. electrical connections causing the driver enter a crazy State or require a recalibration of bending.

    Note: I have reinstall the latest version of the driver.
    Also: American Toshiba support site that this problem exists in the notebooks of May.

    Also: The touchpad is too sensitive, which makes it very unusable!

  • 2016 iMac, purchase decision: why I'd get a 2 TB vs 1 TB disc fusion? What type of use requires a 2 TB with vs 128 GB 1 TB 24 GB flash version?

    2016 iMac, purchase decision: why I'd get a 2 TB vs 1 TB disc fusion? What type of use requires a 2 TB with vs 128 GB 1 TB 24 GB flash version?

    At first, we thought they were SSDS but learned that they are only partial. It really takes the extra storage space and our practices are mainly applications to business and other things like google earth, photos, the light using google sketchup etc. To know we are not the players or the designers. However, we do tend to keep our computers for a long time. We still have our 11 year old iMac. Are there benefits hidden suspension for the 2 TB drive that we regret or should stick us to the 1 TB version?  If we were to get a 2 TB we would notice even the difference account required to our practice?

    It depends in part on the total amount of storage you need. One way to help determine which would be to analyze how much space you use on your current iMac. I currently have a MacBook Air, which has only 128 GB of total storage (all the flash) and it's big enough for me (though I'm not typical) and I really enjoy his performance. If I was in the market for an iMac, I'd be buying the 256 GB flash storage option - but I don't need total storage space. The information below from the link "how much storage is good for you" in the http://www.apple.com/shop/buy-mac/imac?product=MK442LL/A & step = config

    can help

    Flash storage

    Flash storage offers significantly improved compared to a traditional hard drive - performance speed you will notice when you start your iMac, launch an application or browse your photo library. Storage Flash also uses no moving parts, so it works silently. For maximum performance, you can configure up to 512 GB of memory flash on the iMac 21.5 inches or up to 1 TB on the iMac 27 inches.

    Fusion drive

    Fusion drive handset storage quick flash with a large hard drive. OS X intelligently manages what goes where, using the Flash for files you access frequently and keep the rest of your digital life to the larger hard drive. Over time, the system learns how you work, so it suits the Fusion drive management view for work best for you. You can choose a Fusion drive up to 2 TB on the 21.5-inch iMac, and up to 3 TB on the iMac 27 inches.

    Merge to disk 1 pairs of a hard disk of 1 TB with 24 GB of quick flash - enough to store files of OS X and applications in order to ensure a quick start, near wake instant sleep and quick application launch, with room remains for the most frequently used files and important applications. 2 to and 3 to pair of Fusion results in a hard drive more than 128GB of quick flash storage, offering even more space for your most frequently from the files used. For best performance, systems iMac with 32 GB of memory must be configured with a 2 to big merger or any flash storage.
