Is your Mac running slow? First, you'll need to figure out what is causing the problem. I always do a time machine backup before removing anything on my Mac. And restart your Mac. You can learn how to do a time machine back up here: https://youtu.be/A6S8Al1WHdc 1 - Open up the activity monitor to see what is taking up your CPU and memory use. You can start by quitting as many open apps as you can. 2 - Remove any login items. 3 - Free up hard drive space. 4 - Do a software update. Apple usually helps older Macs with speed improvements with every update. 5 - Memory upgrade 6 - Check your internet speed. It may be your internet connection that is slow and not your Mac. You can also try Safari instead of Chrome as your web browser. 7 - Clear out the Cache folder and cookie folder. You can find those folders in the library folder. Empty Trash. 8 - Run CleanMyMac X for speed optimization. 9 - Uninstall any app manually or with CleanMyMacX. 10 - Run a full smart scan. Thank you for watching How to Fix a Slow Mac.
