Oct 21, 2014 7:45 AM in response to guma3208by Tommy grant,I think Apple need to release a MAJOR update to fix this issue.
It use to take me 15 seconds to boot up, now it take me 2/3 minutes.
unfortunately this is a problem that a lot of people are having

Oct 21, 2014 3:31 PM in response to guma3208by prkoat,MBP 2013 Retina with SSD and external Thunderbolt display.
Super slow boot, very slow mouse move.
Followed the suggestions - repair permissions etc.
For me it was a 4 Port Belkin USB Hub.
As soon as I connected it to the laptop it was extremely sluggish (be it connected directly to the laptop or connected to the thunderbolt display).
With the USB Hub removed the laptop boots extremely fast albeit a tad slower to log in.

Oct 21, 2014 4:46 PM in response to guma3208by annion,I finally went to the apple store since I am still under warranty. After disabling firevault I was told that would fix the problem. It did not and now I am being told that there is nothing wrong with my computer. It is "older" (2011) and may stay slower because of that. It may also happen that bug fixes will help us all. My battery now has half the staying power but apparently that too is not uncommon and will not necessarily be fixed by putting in a new battery. In other words I may just have to live with above annoyances. Thank-you everyone who responded. Hope this helps.

Oct 23, 2014 9:49 AM in response to synergyby docmagoo2,I have a late 2012 mac mini and I upgraded (fresh install) of yosemite, boot time varied between 44s and 74s compared to mavericks which boots in approx 25s. I compared the two with dual boot and have decided to go back to Mavericks until a fix is sorted. I am uncertain why there is such a variance in boot times. NB I am also running win 7 ultimate with boot camp on the same drive, but Mavericks still boots very rapidly.

Oct 23, 2014 1:20 PM in response to guma3208by synergy,To date I have tried:
* Remove all startup items in Preferences
* Did SMC Reset
* Repaired Disk Permissions
* Reset PRAM
Nothing helped. Nothing worked. EntreCheck shows nothing wrong.
Come on Apple. Earn your reputation for excellence and uncompromising quality in released produce.
Or, is Yosemite another Maps product?

Oct 23, 2014 8:12 PM in response to rssgby Nirayer,Thanks! This solution works for me. Now my macbook (mid-2012 with SSD) boots with-in 12s (Before it takes longer 30s)

Oct 23, 2014 11:16 PM in response to synergyby synergy,OK. I got Yosemite to speed up; about 10 seconds once I get the progress bar.
I found that if I have my HP Photosmart 7225 turned *OFF*, Yosemite starts as expected. If my HP is *on*, it takes a minute and a half.
So, I went to the HP web site. They state that if my driver was OK with Mavericks (it was ok), then it should be ok with Yosemite. I reinstalled it anyway. No change.
Then I turned off, at the printer, the wireless connection to my network. No change.
Now, I just turn off my printer at the end of the day. Start OSX in the morning, THEN turn on the printer. I suspect that will be the process until Apple/HP can figure out what the *real* problem is.
Hope this helps..

Oct 25, 2014 8:49 AM in response to guma3208by muffin otto,I have the same problem look here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2J1a6iMIpVM

Oct 25, 2014 2:17 PM in response to muffin ottoby synergy,I finally got mine to start in < 10 seconds.
It was really an accident. An Apple tech put a program on my system to gather log files. That zip file was automatically named 'RonPrinterPDF.zip'. Huh?
So I started focusing on my printer. (See prior post).
Acting on a tip from another post I:
Went to Preferences / Printers and right clicked on my printer.
Then I selected 'Reset Printers'.
(This removed all printers)
Then I clicked on the + sign below to add back my printer.
Ba boom. No more lag time.....
Hope this helps.

Oct 26, 2014 7:39 AM in response to guma3208by guma3208,Mine is back to normal finally! It seems that one of the apps (YTD video downloader) caused the problem. I uninstalled it and boom in 10 seconds!

Oct 28, 2014 3:22 AM in response to guma3208by Tommy grant,hey. i think i found a solution but it does require backing up all your work. the problem is is that you may have installed mavericks on mountain lion, and Yosemite on mavericks, 3 layers of OS X does cause lag, doing a clean install should solve this problem for you You need to do a clean install by downloading a fresh copy of Yosemite on a (minimum 8gb) usb drive and then delete everything and start from scratch. click here to get a step by step: http://osxdaily.com/2014/10/18/clean-install-os-x-yosemite/
