My comptuer, an iMac from almos 3 years ago, upgraded to the OSX 10.7.2 is turning very slow, and many application take forever to appear. A lot need to be forced to quit (even iCal and addressbook. Is there some software that can cick its act?
iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.7)
I am in exactly the same situation. Same OS level, 8 GB memory. The computer ran crisply with OS Snow Leopard, but now is getting very slow at startup, reviving past memories of Windows in another life! Any ideas about the cause and possible remedy would be greatly appreciated.
Apple's stuff have always been great and unique, but short life time.I think this Is part of the design to make sure people keep buying the new product every year . thats why I dont like apple that much.
And 10hr battery is too short, it ran out of battery right after i get off my work. I brought it only because of the school.
I'm convinced the culprits are hidden somewhere in Lion and icloud. My iMac (also around 3 years old) ran great on Leopard, but boy did things go to **** in a hand cart when I added Lion, and even more so when I added icloud. I now spend as much time each day waiting on the spinning ball to stop (if it ever does) and logging into icloud and waiting, waiting and waiting, ad naseaum. Strangely, icloud works pretty well when I access it on my PC. Force Quit is about the only thing that works most of the time now--and given all the practice it's getting, it should work well.
my 3-year-old iMac is turning sluggish. Is there an app to clean it up and improve its performance?
