Q: My macbook pro is extremely slow after installing Yosemite

I have a 2013 MBP and I don't use file vault. 

After trying many of the options listed on the forum, the only thing that worked for me (another's mileage may vary) was to create a new sys adm profile and delete the old one.  You should have your files backed up. 

Under the new profile my MBP is now as good as new.  Mail, Safari, WiFi and Google Chrome work like new with no slowness.  Very happy. 

I got the idea from an error message from slow responsiveness in Google Chrome, that I might want to try deleting the user profile and using a new one.

I started having performance and slowness issues yesterday. Then it completely froze while I was writing text.

I tried the SMC reset, the PRAM reset, starting in safe mode, starting in verbose mode, etc. What eventually solved the problem for me was the following:

1) Boot the Macbook Pro into target disk mode.

2) Connect it to a Yosemite desktop as an external hard drive.

3) Run Disk Utility and repair the hard drive. It found ton of corrupted stuff and fixed it.

4) Upon reboot, machine is back to pre-Yosemite (Mavericks) speeds. Still feel like there is some lagginess.

Cheers,

I am also having issues with the upgrade.  I have a Macbook Pro (Mid 2012) with 8 GB of memory and 219 GB free of my 750 GB hard drive.  Startup time can take up to a few minutes to complete, Safari runs into the spinning ball numerous times through out the day, some programs will randomly freeze completely, and I have had to do a full reset a few times when trying to wake the laptop from sleep when I walk away from my desk.  Please help.

I ran EtreCheck and go the following results.

Is Time machine still doing it initial encrypt? it could be the reason for slow down and intermittent beach balls. I'm just guessing!

duplicate post

I run my backups to an external hard drive and the last one was performed on Feb 10th.  Currently when I click on the Time Machine logo at the top it does not show that anything is happening in the background.

I'm experiencing the same with my new mac pro, the fan runs constantly and the machine is running slower by the minutes
