[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1624416, member: 46727"] OK, thanks for the specs. Yosemite according to Apple can run with 4 GB of memory, however, it's been our experience that it will run much better with 8 GB. Your hard drive space is fine, plenty of room there. You might want to download the free maintenance and optimization program "[URL="http://www.titanium.free.fr/onyx.html"]OnyX[/URL]" and run it in auto mode. It's the only one we recommend and can be beneficial to speed things up. Be sure to download the version for Yosemite. After you download it and click to install it, Gatekeeper is going to warn you about opening the program. This is a safe program, so just right click on it and select "install". [/QUOTE]
