Hello Christine.
Try doing a disk permissions repair.
1. In the finder, press command-shift-u to open the Utilities folder.
2. Press command-o on Disk Utility to open it.
3. Make sure the first aid tab is selected and make sure the right disk
is selected in the select disk table.
4. Click on verify disk permissions, then repair disk permissions if
available.
5. Quit Disk Utility with command-q.
Hope this helps.

It seems like my Mac is looking for something or trying to perform a task and
it can't. It doesn't matter what I'm doing, it will allow me to have the
processor for about three to five seconds and then all is quiet and it's like
the computer is just all busy, but it doesn't accomplish anything. If I get
voiceover to say anything it will be that whatever app I'm in is busy. I have
restarted both a warm restart and an entire shutdown. I have unhooked drives
and the display and that doesn't make any difference. There aren't any other
peripherals except for my bluetoooth keyboard, which I can't do without. It has
never caused this behavior before and I just changed the batteries. I've looked
at system preferences and I can't think what has changed to be causing this. I
don't know enough about the Mac to know how to moniter it or don anything like
all of you might be able to do. It just seems like it is trolling for something
or just very busy doing I don't know what.
Any instruction would help. I don't know what other info would help you.
