Re: really slow Mac Mini

2020-09-28 Thread rmani...@gmail.com 
go to terminal /console under applications /utilities in finder
type ds, see how much space you have

type 'top' see which apps are running how much ram they are using , remove 
the apps you no longer use

type 'ps -aux' to see the full path of the applications currently running, 
see any that not know what they are, look them up on gole and remove them 
if no longer needed

check your starup entries removed only requried , under settings  -> 
user/userggroups,  click on 'login items' uncheck those you don't need , it 
wont install it just wont open at login/startuup you can alway recheck

also go to activity monitor in applications/utilites and see if there
any errors listed. Delete apps that causing error that yuu no longer need

turn off cloud sync to make sure is not the size of date transfer slowing 
machine, limit to only critical info ,although wount save bank and health 
records on cloud, better an extrnal hardrive indepent of os and vendor

remove apps you dont need use  'disk utility' in applications/utility' and 
display
