Q: My MacBook suddenly started running slow

.

Hi Lex,

Here is the link to my discussion:

My MacBook Pro lately has been running slow.

Please help me if and when you can. Thanks so much!

I ran the  terminal command and the text edit window popped up with this

I'm reasonably certain that Linc is no longer monitoring this discussion and rarely responds to "me too" requests in any case.

Your best bet is to start a new discussion outlining your problem and wait for Linc or somebody else to have you run any diagnostics. That will get you help a lot quicker from more troubleshooters and other users that currently share your problem.

That's just the way this forum works best.

Hi Lex,

Could you also take a look of my problem, really appreciated

One time should be enough. But I was reavelling.

I would appreciate that you start a new thread, this one is already too long.

You have a serious problem to solve and it is better when as much users here look at it.

I hope more of us will answer on your new post in a new thread (post the link here).

I would not know how to eliminate the damage that installing CleanMyMac has done, other than a real clean install of everything.

There are other poblems too.

ps, I am not really very available, because I am travelling a lot in the next 7 days..

Hello Linc,

This is the log i got after executing the command  syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'Channel t|GPU D|I/O|find tok|n Cause: -' | tail | open -ef

Aug 20 16:40:55 Aadils-MacBook-Pro kernel[0] <Debug>: nspace-handler-unblock: did not find token 521

Aug 22 09:14:06 Aadils-MacBook-Pro kernel[0] <Debug>: nspace-handler-unblock: did not find token 288

Please tell me what to do next

Thanks

I'm almost certain that Linc stopped monitoring this old and way to long discussion and rarely accepts "me too" requests in any case.

Start a new topic and explain in detail what's wrong without posting the results of anything until somebody asks for it. You'll get much quicker answers from far more fellow users by doing that. It's just the way this forum works best.

Hi Stephjonas!

One of your problems may be that there are unknown programs running in the background, which often causes the Macbook to run slower. To find out if there are programs running in the background, all you need to do is enter "Activity Monitor" (you can find this by going into applications, or searching it in the top right corner of the screen). Once you are in activity monitor there should be a bunch of programs running, there should be a column that is highlighted blue with the name "% CPU". In that column there are numbers beside the program running. If there are programs running over 75 - 100 (depending on how fast your Macbook is), that may be what is slowing your Macbook down. To get rid of these programs highlight the program that you would like to delete by clicking on it once and then clicking the "X" button in the top left of the "Activity Monitor", it should come up with a question saying: "Cancel, Force Quit, or Quit", click on the "Force Quit" button. That should speed things up...

If this doesn't work you may have downloaded a virus onto your system and may need to reset your Macbook. To find out how to do this search it on the net or in discussions on apple.com.

Hope this helped

I'm not sure who "ACMD" is that you support, but I feel certain that the OP no longer needs your assistance with their ten month old problem.

Just in case anyone still follows this thread, I have created a new discussion as advised, 26493501.

Cheers,

Naresh.
