But for some reason my iMac runs slow now. I know that iCloud

Even typing this introduce lag.


I would love to receive some help. I have basic basic knowledge of computers.

Hopefully, you have AppleCare. You're entitled to home repair service since you have a desktop-iMac. Otherwise, you will need to drag your iMac to an Apple Store or an AASP for free diagnostic testing.

That being said.......

If you do not have AppleCare I would call Customer Relations. You need to see what they can do for you regarding hd failure on a 2 yr old iMac.


Also, you should seriously consider maxing out your RAM.
