One of the things that slows me down is when my macbook air starts slacking. Here are 5 tips that can change that for you.
- Say "bye-bye" to your desktop wallpaper: Yes, that breathtaking mountain range wallpaper may be easy on the eyes, but it's also slowing down your MacBook Air. Get rid of that desktop wallpaper, or change it to a solid color to help your Mac run faster.
- Give your Mac some space: I know it's tempting to keep all of your 90's music playlists and cat videos on your MacBook Air, but hoarding all that data will only make your Mac crawl like a snail. So, free up some space by deleting unnecessary files, and store the rest on an external hard drive.
- Close those tabs: Are you the kind of person who keeps dozens of tabs open at once? Well, that's just like inviting all of your friends over to your house party when it's just you who's there. Close those tabs you're not using, and let your Mac breathe!
- Stop those background apps: Your MacBook Air has a lot of programs running in the background, which can seriously slow it down. So, make sure to check your Activity Monitor regularly and quit those background apps that you're not using. Your Mac will thank you.
- Give your Mac a break: Just like how you need a break from work, your MacBook Air needs a break from time to time too. Shut it down and give it a good night's sleep, or put it in hibernation mode when you're not using it. A rested Mac is a faster Mac!
Tell me if these worked and if you have a better trick, tell me too!
