MacBook Running Slow

Fixing a slow MacBook can be frustrating, but there are several steps you can take to improve its performance:

1. Close Unnecessary Apps and Tabs: Make sure to close any apps and browser tabs that you're not using1. This can free up system resources.

2. Check for Software Updates: Ensure your Google Chrome is up to date. Updates often include performance improvements and bug fixes.

3. Free Up Disk Space: Delete unnecessary files and move large files to the cloud storage. We are cloud based so we should not be saving anything locally on the computer.

4. Use Activity Monitor: Open Activity Monitor (found in Applications > Utilities) to see which apps and processes are using the most CPU and memory1. Quit any that are not needed.

5. Reset SMC and NVRAM/PRAM: Sometimes resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) and NVRAM/PRAM can help resolve performance issues.

6. Clean Up Browser Data: Clear your browser's cache and cookies, and disable any unnecessary extensions.

Those are a few steps you can take to resolve this issue. If the problem persists, please submit a ticket, and a member of our IT team will evaluate your device.
