Hi Alan,
Many thanks for that suggestion. I am getting this application and will follow
your instructions by removing the lot and introducing one at a time and see
which one is creating the trouble.
Great idea and my thanks. Hopefully Stephen will go through the test also.
All the best,
Hi Stephen,
Nothing like a slow Mac to get into analytical mode - - -.
Your iMac has good specs, so there may be some condition (covid 19?!) affecting
it. Personally I would not have Dropbox at all; and I see no reason to have
Mail as a Login item.
I run my iMac with minimum active windows
Thank you Alan.
The only two other Apps in my Startup are Mail & Dropbox.
I am wondering if Dropbox really needs to be the Startup Folder ?
I have a 2017 iMac , Retina 4K, 21.5 inch
Processor i7 3.6 GHz Quad Core
16 GB RAM
500 GB SSD
It is a very fast Mac and usually gets to login in 25 seconds.
Hi Philippe and Stephen,
My solution to slow startups was to install the app "Delay Start”. (Free from
the App Store.)
This app is the only one I have in the user Login Items. All other apps I want
to open automatically are listed in Delay Start. From memory I think 10 apps
can be listed
4 matches
Mail list logo
