Hi dear Otelina if you want open a new thread to continue... But you have very low ram also

You must put more ram at least 8 gb if you cant find an Apple store close to you and take your macbook to change it. If you know how to change it and is not so difficult you can find online stores to buy and one is mac sales com ( https://www.macsales.com/ ) You can chat with them too to instruct you.

Now as for the others it need more investigation and i cant here. open a new thread.But becareful what you do. Not all instructions you can read here are related to your problem. Any problem is unique.

Respect and my greetings to Link Davis as it happened to be at this thread.
