[QUOTE="lclev, post: 1714578, member: 307555"] I agree a trip to the genius bar is needed. But why would they recommend installing an older version of OS X? That makes no sense to me. I am currently typing this post on the exact same model of Macbook Air you have. I am running OS X 10.11.5 with 4GB of memory and 125GB of free space on the SSD. I have none of the issues you are experiencing. I don't think it is El Capitan. I think it is a hardware issue. Just my 2 cents worth. ;D Lisa [/QUOTE]
