Struggling with the subpar performance of your Mac? A little frustrating- it can be, isn’t it? This gets even more frustrating when you have something really important at work, and your operating system is lagging somewhere far behind. But, what if we say, that it can be easily resolved? How? Well, you can follow a few steps to optimize the speed of your Mac (Some of which might surprise you!)
Read on to find out. We have everything for you from updating your software to clearing
caches in just a few clicks.
Optimize the Software
Always make sure that your Mac is updated with all the applications you generally use. Just
start by taking a look at the security patches and the plug-in at first. These are important to
keep your Mac running and up-to-date for better performance.
A Quick Malware Scan
Well, this is the right time! We all must overcome the myth that “MAC Don’t generally get
Virus”. While it is true that most of the malware targets operating systems, occasionally, Mac is still prone to the same.
Cutting down the Transparency
Transparency in Mac is said to be the biggest culprit around. As we know, everything is
crystal clear now, which is why the menu bar tends to fetch the colors from the theme you
go for, among others. It is better to turn it off, even on the most recent update to make it
work the best.
Uninstall the Unused Applications
Finding some space on your drive can boost its performance, especially if your drive is
full. To regain the speed of your mac, try deleting the application you do not use-
It’s time to purge!! Free up your device and feel the difference.
Restart your Mac
Now, you must be saying this is not a solution, but if you try it, yes we want you to! It doesn’t take much time, but it usually boosts the processing speed. A quick, yet effective fix. The science behind it is that it closes all the programs running in the background and gives you a fresh start.
Save your data on iCloud
Transferring your data on iCloud can save you a lot of trouble. It won’t only free up space on your Mac, but it’ll most likely increase the computing power of your Mac. As you normally can not easily get rid of other on Mac storage, but by saving your important data on the cloud can save you some extra space on your hard drive. Also, you don’t have to be a Mac genius to accomplish this task, even a five-year-old can apply this fix. Which means you definitely can.
Try changing your browser
Every browser uses different system resources, particularly when you start getting bogged down with those unlimited extensions. While Safari is an efficient browser, it is quite a system hungry app. Depending on your internet surfing trends and your system specs you can try other browsers, which can enhance the processing power of your Mac.
The Race ends here
Whenever you meet performance issues on your Mac, make sure you try these fixes. They will not only speed up your Mac but also make your life a lot easier.
