[QUOTE="Mikeo1938, post: 1010192, member: 135375"] My MPB slowed down and I got the beach ball so I ran Disk Utility. The disk verified OK, and then I did 'repair permissions', something which I've done from time to time, with the most recent a couple of weeks back. However, it started out showing 18 hours; then 1 day and 5 hours! How could things have got this bad? Has something terrible happened? With Tiger, I used MacJanitor from time to time, but not so long ago I read that Leopard doesn't need much in the way of regular maintenance ... (?) Is there something like MacJanitor which I should be using? Comments greatly appreciated ... M [/QUOTE]
