It might actually. Not the fact that you have a vm, but the fact your processor might be slightly slower then the newer macs which I believe have the i7 processors which are slightly more efficient.

Is the username and password the Apple ID? Because other than that, I only have a password log in for my Mac - Andy On 24 Oct 2014, at 01:48, Nicholas Parsons mr.nicholas.pars...@gmail.com wrote: Yes, there was a dialog during setup which asked whether you wanted to turn on Firevolt. At least that was my experience. FireVolt is great. Without it, it’s surprising how easy it is to get access to someone’s data on their Mac even if they have a password. It’s particularly useful on a MacBook if you don’t want people having access to everything on your Mac if you lose it or it’s stolen. And once you know what the beeps mean at login, the process is perfectly accessible. It’s important to learn what the beeps mean though, as I stuffed it up the first time and had to decrypt and encrypt again. One beep is to type in the user name, two beeps is to type in your password, and three beeps means you are logging in.

Re: Security preferences and FileVault
The Apple genius I spoke to said that this is indeed the case. It is turned off when the system is fully installed but it does something. It locks your drive technically so if you are ever going to partition don’t! I know from experience that things go very wrong. I have even tried unlocking my drive from the recovery partition but it's still no go. As I said, Drive still works fine but I want it unlocked as I did not ask it to be locked in the first place.

Re: Security preferences and FileVault
Yes, there was a dialog during setup which asked whether you wanted to turn on Firevolt. At least that was my experience. FireVolt is great. Without it, it’s surprising how easy it is to get access to someone’s data on their Mac even if they have a password. It’s particularly useful on a MacBook if you don’t want people having access to everything on your Mac if you lose it or it’s stolen. And once you know what the beeps mean at login, the process is perfectly accessible. It’s important to learn what the beeps mean though, as I stuffed it up the first time and had to decrypt and encrypt again. One beep is to type in the user name, two beeps is to type in your password, and three beeps means you are logging in. If you type the username or password incorrectly, it just repeats the relevant beep signal. --- Mac Access At Mac Access Dot Net --- To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access@mac-access.net You can find an archive of all messages postedto the Mac-Access forum at the list's public Mail Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-access@mac-access.net/.

Re: Security preferences and FileVault
I unlocked the file vault. It didn’t take very much time and Idon’t have a lot of data on my MacAir as of yet. Not until I get comfortable with this tool. Question?

Re: Security preferences and FileVault
For anyone that may be thinking of doing a clean install to fix the problem don’t bother, it doesn’t work. Eventually I had to go into the Apple store and they had to connect the computer to their own networks and they did something to fix it. Even if you know file vault is off once you installed Yosemite you will most likely face this problem. Right now when I go into disk utility instead of seeing the manufacturer and a whole series of numbers as the first level of my HD all i see are to Macintosh HD labels. The first level of the hard drive should contain tabbs such as first aid, erase and so forth but you only get first aid and partition.
