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)

    The solution is putting in more Ram memory: 2x4GB will make the difference.

    For now: remove everything from SystemPreferences->Users&Groups->LoginItems with the minus sign underneath, EXCEPT for the canon IJ scanner driver.

    Uninstalll Director Shockwave.

    There is so much crap installed:

    having backups,  format your disk, install OSX and bring your user data over by hand.

    here not much to see.

    I advise:

    uninstall AdblockPlus extension in Safari. Install Adblock instead.

    Download AdwareMedic from   thesafemac.com   and run it.

    Uninstall the Android FileTransfer Programm (wichtig).

    Looks like you turned FileVault2 on (or off) and it takes a very long time and a good bit of CPU power to completely convert a hard drive, so wait until that's completed before trying to judge whether there are other issues or not.
