Intermittent freezing/typing lag with El Capitan

I downgrade to Mavericks and so far everything is working correctly,

and I will not move from here for the next five years.

Cheers and good luck

iMessage was constantly freezing up on me in El Capitan on a 2015 Macbook Pro. Additionally, my battery was draining incredible quickly due to several system processes were operating in overdrive...heating up the machine, etc. My solution proved to be simple. As I had on contacts via google, I migrated all contacts to iCloud and shut down messages on my Google account. Boom! Problem instantly solved.

Hi guys - mine was solved by just removing the Google CardDAV, thought would be great to share this post I have written if anyone is reading it, so that won't be trying out any absurd suggestions.

I have this problem, in all applications, but I do not see any consistent error messages in Console. Wireless keyboard, but it's a Logitech w/USB dongle, not Bluetooth. Among the strange things is the occasional appearance of the typing options window, which is supposed to appear only when you hold down a key.

Hi, I have Macbook Pro 15.4inch 2012 I purchased I'm just a very basic user but have been having a multiple of problems with my trackpad/cursor freezing, ( I'm fully updated to latest L Capitan) pages disappearing & reappearing, option windows appearing anywhere on the screen like for reloading a page etc. a multiple of different ones. The cursor would move by itself or judder across the screen. Too many weird things to mention here. but noticed all this happening after I cleaned my trackpad with a side to side motion. Sometimes I'd think the problem had corrected itself as it would be fine for hours. It was better using the mouse but was still happening & then the problems would come back full on.

I have done one thing (@ the suggestion of a helpful staff member @ Talk to the Mac Cairns) & that is go to System Preferences & trackpad, unchecked the double click ( the second option)& am just using the one click & tap( the third option) it does seem to have stopped all the problems but it's only a short time so will update in a few day's. Maybe Apple themselves are doing something or they should be aware & please fix the problem/s, don't have an Apple agent locally so was about to send my computer away to be fixed. It's a bit disturbing having so many thing's going haywire all @ once.

I spoke to soon problem is right back again also page turns to large print or cursor gets a mind of it's own & flicks away totally bizarre the whole page judders or jumps sideways..... so frustrating....

TThanks, I've had so many problems, will send a message.

This is totally unrelated to the original post, which has to do with lagging response to keyboard input.

Again, totally unrelated to the original post.

I had this problem too, and recently just solved it with a change of browser. I had been using Chrome on my phone and tablet and enjoyed the convenience of the fast browser, shared saved bookmarks and open tabs, but when I started switching to Safari or Firefox for my internet search, typing and transactions, all the lagging was gone, and my 2009 MacBook Pro is once again rejuvenated!

Problem is Spootlight!!!
Disable it with: sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist

You can enable it again using: sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
YOU ARE WELCOME !!! 😉

Can you walk me through this?
