[QUOTE="barnettr, post: 1647531, member: 346245"] [B]Update:[/B] I deleted loads of files. Hard drive was: 250GB SATA Disk with 35GB free and now 250GB SATA Disk with 72GB free I also ran Repair Disk and Repair Permissions several times (only a few volumes needed updating - everything completed successfully). Finally I've done a few SMC resets. Unfortunately I don't notice any difference. The system is still struggling with multiple applications open at the same time (it didn't used to), and some applications take quite a few seconds (10 maybe) to load (the icon bounces a lot in the dock). I bought iDefrag 5 and downloaded the older 2.2.8 (I'm on OSX 10.7.5). I was hoping I could use my v5 licence with v2.2.8 but the older version uses a different authentication method - username/password or licence key. I've emailed Coriolis but I'm still waiting :\ Any thoughts? Thanks again, Ryan [/QUOTE]
