What to Do When Your MacBook is Slow?

Every tool that we use can get stale or outright bad with time, losing its ability to perform the intended task with past ease and smoothness. If we look at knives, we will all agree that even when we cut the softest materials with it, the edge gets more obtuse with every motion. It is a normal practice, and that is how things work, everything that we touch will get worse with years, especially if we misuse it and dismiss the need to do anything radical about it. The same thing applies to smart technologies. That despite unlimited functional potential still needs a bit of help and care from its owner. MacBooks are no different, and you need to find out exactly what to do when Macbook is running slow!

An Approach To Take

If you can identify that your expensive device is running slowly, then you have the ability to feel when the machine is underperforming. Lots of Mac users who are strangers with technologies can’t even tell if it’s a good speed or not, they don’t have the experience to tell you for certain. It also should be mentioned that speed is a relative thing. A snail-like pace for pro user will be a rapid breeze for someone who only learns the ropes of the gadget. Even in a situation like that you can find positives! To help your machine and yourself you can run through working steps that don’t require you to be a genius or an electronics guru. If you aspire to become one, then try to solve the issue yourself, before talking to workers that will ask for a bit of money in exchange for repairing services. Nobody was an expert from the start!

Tackling The Issue

By facing the problem one on one, you would still need a bit of advice and guidance not to inflict any harm to your operating system. Most of the users are afraid just of that, and they opt to delegate the chores to someone with the working hands and brain when it comes to MacBooks. There is also an option to do nothing, but that’s the lazy way out. It isn’t right when your expensive equipment is working below its standards. Picture a situation where you would be forced to wait in line to fuel your car or explore the fridge that belongs only to you. Waiting and procrastinating will only aggravate the already apparent problems, as items on your MacBook pile up and garbage the storages. Your hard drive could be bloated on files, your cache can be packed. There could be a lot of programs that are running themselves without your permission or knowledge, is that how you wish to leave things be?

Easy Steps To Boost Productivity

Let’s explore some of the most reasons behind a slow Mac. At the helm of the pack, there is a weight issue or a file overload on the hard drive. To increase the overall speed of the MacBook, you logically have to cut down the unnecessary luggage and relieve the pressure from the processor. Chances are you don’t understand what exactly is slowing down the overall speed. The best way to analyze the MacBook performance is to use the additional software that will direct you in the right direction.

Special apps will gather the information about the content on the device, inform you about the surplus things and clean them up for you! You won’t have to worry that you deleted something important. You can always go on a deleting spree manually, the safest route is to hunt for the multimedia items like photos, music and videos you no longer need.

Possibly your system just didn’t age well. You don’t have enough RAM or you dodged all the updates the system told you about and offered with annoying persistence. Those pop-up windows warn you for a reason, and as much as updates will make your system work slower at first, the upgrades will play a big role in revitalizing your MacBook. An abundance of unwanted log in items might make your gadget slow as well. Going to the Users & Groups section of System Preferences will lead you to a list of utilities that boot themselves, you just need to untick the unwanted applications! Just switching some of your savings on a flash memory card will help you clean up your desktop, resulting in a swifter navigating at all times!

iOS 11.2 to 11.4 Beta Branch 3: How to Jailbreak Without a Computer

While the heyday of jailbreaking is long gone, some users still jailbreak their devices for a variety of reasons. Back in the days, jailbreaking your device allowed access to a variety of tweaks and options which would have been impossible to access or change. You could install non Appstore apps, check internal specs like RAM, and personalize your theme and font and so much more.

Today the selection is much more limited as Apple made it clear that they do not enjoy allowing users to tinker with their iPhone. Jailbreaking still remains attractive and we will learn how to easily do it today.

What you should keep in mind:

Electra will not work if your iOS device was recently updated to version 11.4.1. If that is the case, a downgrade possibility is only available for iPhone models between iPhone 7 and iPhone X. The reason for this is the fact that signed versions of iOS 11.4 beta are still available only for this devices.

How to Jailbreak step by step:

Stage 1: Begin by opening http://next.tweakboxapp.com/ on your browser. Search for and install Electra 11.3.1 MultiPath. Proceed to stage 2.

Stage 2: Enable Developer mode via: Settings/General/Device Management. Once you reach that point type on  ” Trust DingshengcaifulInvestment Management,” then select “Trust”. Congrats, you are now ready to proceed towards the final stage.

Stage 3: Freedom is just two taps away. For the final step open Electra from the home screen and check that the tweaks button is set to ON. Then, simply tap on ‘’Enable Jailbreak’’ and wait.  After one or two minutes, your iPhone will reboot, and Cydia will now be available on your homes screen. Tap on Cydia and feel free to explore and install whatever catches your eye. Enjoy!

Clash of Clans Breaks 4 billion, Clash Royale close to 3 billions

Supercell’s hit Clash of Clans continues to score impressive numbers almost six years after launch. Courtesy of App Annie we learned that the Finnish made game leads the IAP  top with over 4$ billion in user spending since launch, making it the most profitable game available on IOS. Clash Royale, also made by Supercell, broke the 2 billion landmark in global player spending earlier in June, both games generating a profit that seems to overshadow AAA games companies like Electronic Arts and Ubisoft.

Problems continue to trouble both PUBG Corp and Bluehole Studios. While they announced a suit against Fortnite developer Epic Games alleging copyright issues regarding the mechanics of the two games, the suit was dropped a few days ago. It would seem that either the two companies reached a secret settlement, or PUBG Corp realized that PUBG itself is coded in Unreal Engine 4 and angering Epic Games may lead to Epic canceling the license. These would mean that PUB Corp and Bluehole would have been obligated to recode the game in a different engine from scratch. Though luck, eh?

Algorithm change leads to Play store fiasco. A recent change in the Google Play store algorithm has left independent developers raging on the Plays tore forums. The change took place on June 21st when Google launched a new version of the algorithm. The main issue is the fact that downloads dropped by over 90% and so did organic traffic toward certain apps. The issue was also discussed on Unity and Discord servers and seems to persist. Google acknowledged that the main issue seemed to be a validation of payment for the license required in order to offer games on the Play store.
