I had this problem.
I deleted the pref files
com.apple.help.plist
And I think
com.apple.helpviewer.plist
And this solved the problem.
Also try this:
(1) Quit Help Viewer if it is open.
(2) Open your Home > Library > Caches folder.
(3) Trash the com.apple.helpui folder.
(4) Empty the Trash.
(5) Restart.
The first time you launch Help for your Mac or a given application,
you may still notice a slight delay in Help Viewer performance
displaying the Help. This is due to the building of a new Help
Viewer cache. Help Viewer performance will be considerably improved
in subsequent launches of the specific Help information.
did both, much snappier now
thanks all for quick accurate responce
