Ok so you decided to make the jump from a Windows PC to an Apple Mac.
Everything was going fine until you started to notice that little pinwheel/beach ball that comes up when your computer is trying to tell you to hold on a darn second.
I don't know about you but that drives me nuts like that Sham Wow guy, lol
So for one, I went to an authorized Apple repair shop called Di-No computer repair in Pasadena Ca to get some more ram. I bumped up from 1 gb to the max allowed in my mac book to 2 gb. I needed to do this because I needed the extra ram because I needed to install Windows into my Mac due to the fact that some Real Estate related programs only run on Windows.
But before I left the tech also showed me a little trick to get the Mac to perform quicker just like the day you bought it.
This will work on not only Mac Books but all Apples running Mac OSX.
Once every month you should perform a routine called: Repairing Disk Permissions. Just follow these simple steps:
- On your hard drive locate and open the "Application" folder then open the "Utilities" folder inside the Application folder.
- Launch (start the program) "Disk Utilities" and select the name of your hard drive in the left window pane.
- In the right window pane select the button that says "Repair Disk Permissions"
- Wait for your computer to finish this process, Then quit Disk Utilities.
