[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1836269, member: 175845"] @[B]JohnnyYuma[/B] I don't know when or what you do for minimum Mac housekeeping but you could do a Shutdown, wait a minute and then Startup. Doing so will purge some junk files and surplice crap and may help speed things up. Likewise, booting up into [I][B]Safe Boot Mode[/B][/I] can do more purging/maintenance, then just restart normally. To do so, when booting up, just [I][B]press and hold the shift key [/B][/I]immediately you hear the startup chime and hold until you see the spinning gear wheel. Doing so will usually be much slower than a normal boot up, so just be patient. PS: I'm not too far behind you now at 78 3/4!!! :Smirk: - Patrick ====== [/QUOTE]
