Hi Stephen, The next time you notice slow downs on your iMac, DON’T restart the iMac.
Run EtreCheck to create a Report then copy the EtreCheck Report details and paste in a reply email please. This hopefully will give us more detail on what is happening on your system that could be causing the slow downs. Its best to Run EtreCheck when the problems happen. If you don’t already have EtreCheck installed on your iMac, download & install it from this link Download EtreCheck http://etrecheck.com/#download <http://etrecheck.com/#download> EtreCheck mainly just runs the command-line version of the System Profiler tool and reports those results in more human readable form. It also tries to identify known problems. Finally, it consolidates all of this information into a story about all of the software that is running behind the scenes on your Mac. Some of that software may not be running nicely.
