Here are the specifics stats:
-54gb left of 500gb hard drive
- Running OSX 10.6.8
- 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
- 4 GB Memory
I have tried multiple things to fix this. I thought, and still think, this could be related to flash. I've tried using all different browsers (Google Chrome, Safari, and now I'm using Firefox) but I have the same problem on all three. This problem also occurs when using skype with video for more than 5 minutes. It never use to be this way until about 6 months ago and ever since then it has been a pain to watch YouTube videos, or any videos online for that matter. Once the computer begins to lag, there is usually no point of return. The computer is slow and laggy after this point and needs to be restarted before it returns to its useful state.
I have looked at activity monitor and here are some of the readings I'm getting while watching videos:
- Anywhere from .02 to 10% for %idle
- 1 GB free of memory
- Roughly 600mb wired memory
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Flash, I've used programs like OnyX to clean the cache and such but this problem still happens.
I'm still working on broadening my knoweledge of computers, but this problem is getting to the point where I may just surrender and take it into the Genius bar.
Does anyone have any ideas for what I could do to fix this problem once and for all? Any suggestions are appreciated!

Macbook Pro Slow After Update
The solution is you must have a Wi-Fi that has 5G capable, most fibr home wifi has this feature and if you connect your Macbook pro laptop into it, your download speed will fasten same as your internet bandwidth. Hi, I have a brandnew MacBook Pro and wanted to work with svg-files imported from openstreetmaps.com. Problem: file loads very slowly and every step takes - 11537004. Macbook operating system download free. Fix your slow Mac once and for all. Apple's newly announced $6,000 Mac Pro has enough raw power to sidestep this messy business.). They could very well make a difference. Or buy an 1.8GHz air with 8GB 512GB for £1,250 or an apple refurbished 2.9GHz pro 8GB 512GB £1,500. 2011 Macbook was used very heavily as my PhD and entertainment device for 4 years (16hrs+ per day) and much less for the last two years. I have terrible wifi signal in my flat so I am focused on having a reasonable hard-drive. See full list on anysoftwaretools.com.
