[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1526423, member: 38864"] I'm just stumbling into the thread here. It's a bit hard following all the posts, but I see AV software is in use. Have you tried disabling or even outright uninstalling the AV software temporarily just to see if that may be the culprit? Secondly, I see there was a suggestion early on that your drive may be heavily fragmented. Have you looked into defragging it? I can recommend [URL="http://www.coriolis-systems.com/iDefrag.php"]iDefrag[/URL] for the task, assuming you aren't using an SSD (don't defrag an SSD, ever). Thirdly, I don't know if this has been recommended yet, but you should be sure to exclude your Time Machine backups from Spotlight. Also, on the off chance Spotlight itself is corrupt, [URL="http://osxdaily.com/2012/01/17/rebuild-spotlight-index/"]rebuild the Spotlight index[/URL]. [/QUOTE]
