[QUOTE="mrimd, post: 1470079, member: 281328"] I am having this very problem too. I've run OnyX and fixed disk permissions several times, even run Dr. Web Light to see if I have any viruses. Nothing has helped, it's really slow all the time and takes 7-10 min to load any program. Please help! Model Name: MacBook Pro Model Identifier: MacBookPro9,2 Processor Name: Intel Core i5 Processor Speed: 2.5 GHz Number of Processors: 1 Total Number of Cores: 2 L2 Cache (per Core): 256 KB L3 Cache: 3 MB Memory: 4 GB Boot ROM Version: MBP91.00D3.B08 SMC Version (system): 2.2f41 Serial Number (system): C02J6UCPDTY3 Hardware UUID: 3353AA94-0A22-5EE0-AC60-363AEFF10140 Sudden Motion Sensor: State: Enabled -Thought I found the solution,b ut it was only temporary: you know what, i think i found out it was a corrupt user. this always seems to happen on any mac i use. the original admin user somehow becomes corrupt, gets really slow/glitchy and sucks. i still would like to understand more about stuff like this and why it happens, but no rush. My situation now: New user slowly, but surely became the same way now. Sluggish, glitchy, slow, with a 5-7 sec delay to do anything. Standard tasks such as using the finder menu, browsing the web, typing anything, opening any programs takes even longer, about 5-10 min sometime 15. I don't know what to do, this is a brand new Macbook Pro and it should work better than a PC. This is exactly why I made the switch in the first place. BTW, I did use Migrate ast. to transfer everything over from an older Macbook Pro running Snow Leopard, but that shouldn't matter as long as I updated all my programs right. Any help from anyone would help. [/QUOTE]
