Q: My MacBook suddenly started running slow

Hello! I've had my MacBook Pro for since 2010 and it suddenly started running slow. This has been going on for a week already. I've restarted my MacBook many times and when I'm not using it I shut it down. I've tried many things to make it run faster and deleted 14k files that were mostly text documents, pictures, videos, etc. and deleted my whole iTunes library hoping it would work but nothing. I currently have 77.07 GB left but space has never been the problem since in the past I've had 10GB or to the point where I had no GB and it still ran perfectly. Two things I've noticed is that when it gets hot it starts running slow and also when I start watching videos on youtube or ones that are already in my MacBook. Last night I reset my SMC hoping it would work better and it only ran slow because of the heat but I see no change. I'm trying anything possible to fix this myself before taking it to the Apple Store and spending money on something I could've probably fixed myself.

 

Here's some information on my MacBook

 

MacBook Pro 13-inch, Mid 2010

Processor: 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 220M 256 MB

Software: OS X 10.8.5 (12F45)

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

    Nothing in this list indicates that removing crap softwares is needed.

    You said "but the system is still running slower than normal".....

    can you explain a bit better? start a new thread and post the link here.

    Hi Lex (and anyone else willing to help),

     

    I also have been having trouble with my Mac speed. It came on suddenly yesterday when I awakened my computer from sleep. The specific issues are that finder is especially slow. I have trouble opening folders on my desktop. But the browser windows have been slow as well, as in when I try to open a new tab. Youtube was particularly slow. Every time anything is slow the rainbow spinny icon pops up. Even writing this message was incredibly slow, it paused every 15 seconds. Thanks! I have my EtreCheck report:

    Generally speaking, Lex wants you to "start a new thread and post the link here." unless there is one obvious problem and I'm not seeing anything like that here. That will get you the most attention from the largest number of troubleshooters instead of relying on a couple of us here who are still monitoring this way-to-long topic. It's just the way this forum works best.

     

    You do have some out-of-date software installed, so I would start working through those. The obvious ones to me are:

     

    Silverlight

    DirectorShockwave

    JavaAppletPlugin but check System Preferences->Java first to see why it's not automatically updating.


    I hope you are using some other form of backup since you aren't using Time Machine. All hard drives fail, often somewhere around the three year point, so if there is anything on yours that you can't live without, you need to come up with a robust backup plan to preserve it.
