Hey there guys,
I have recently been having problems with the Macbook Pro, 13", 2.4 GHz, Snow Leopard, that I purchased in June '10. When I first got the notebook, everything was blazing fast and I was very happy with everything.
Recently, in the past couple of months, my Mac has been slow to respond to certain things:
1. when playing music/video in iTunes or Chrome, there is a 3-5 second lag before i can close or stop playback
2. Microsoft office 2007 also has lag. Sometimes when I type, it takes 5 seconds before the letters I typed actually show up!
I have done the following things to troubleshoot the problem:
1. Zapped the PRAM
2. Repaired disk permissions
3. Repaired disk from installation DVD
4. Updated software
I have the following applications installed, and wonder if they could be a source of the problem?
Nocturne (changes bar on top to black color), Appigo Sync, Dock Library (I have also changed the color of all the dock icons manually)
If someone could give me some tips, I would really appreciate it! This is my first Mac. I was a long-time PC user and was fairly adept at solving problems, but I don't really know much about the Mac OSX.
Thanks,
Leukocyte
