Hi Rick
Not sure what you're asking, but I've found running an app like Onyx that
cleans up many things from the back end workings, to be very helpful.
It's free and relatively safe if you just use the preset default cleansing.
Backing up prior is always a good idea!

Hi Rick,
You don't mention what steps you have taken to try to speed up the Mac mini G4
Only 10GB free space on the Hard Drive is not good for a start. If your hard
drive is nearly full, your Mac will run more slowly.
A few suggestions for you to try:
1. I would first try to slim down the
Step 7. Buy a new super fast MacMini Intel that will run everything so much
better and only costs $699. Give it to your wife as a Xmas present.
Step 8. Win, and be in the good books all Xmas! and beyond :o)
Step 9. Drop hints for something new :o)
Sorry,..couldn't resist adding to Ronni's
Thanks Ronni,
all points considered, I think that item 4 and 6 may be the most
beneficial, I was a bit worried when disk utility was struggling and
had to turn the iMac off but started up OK and have run disk utility
now again to repair permissions.

Hi Rick,
What iMac are you talking about?
Won't help much if you don't do all the suggestions.
If I knew you were not prepared to try suggestions, I would not have wasted my
time typing them.
I agree with Daniel, give the Mac mini G4 the flick, and purchase a new Mac
mini Intel or pay a bit
Sorry Ronni,
I hope you didn't misunderstand, I am doing all your valid suggestions to get
it running a little better then it is, so your advice has not gone astray.
It has made it easy because your instructions are very concise to follow. I
hope you haven't taken offence because your advice is
That's ok Rick,
I did misunderstand and was a bit abrupt to you, I do apologise for being so.

Hi all
My macbook (white 2008 model 4,1 2.4Ghz, 3Gb ram) is very slow. The official
maximum ram it can suport is 4Gb but I have read in several places that it will
actually take 6. Does anyone have the definitve answer please? From experience,
upgrading from 3 to 4 won't make much difference.
