If you're here, it's because you want to learn how to build and make stuff with electronics! And, you're in luck: there's never been a better time. Gone are the days where you need thousands of dollars of equipment and lots physics/math background. Nowadays, if you want to learn to work with electronics, you can jump right in for $20 or less, and any sort of computer.

Think of your Mac like your own brain. The more you’re worrying about, thinking about, and working on solving – the slower you’ll be to respond (and the more annoyed you’ll be) when someone asks you to do something else RIGHT NOW. ?
Below are five options to make the beach ball go away. (Update Nov 21st 2018: New Macinhome YouTube video “why is my Mac so slow?! The top 12 reasons and fixes!” is live!)
1. Quit some apps.

Bang-On Balls: Chronicles is an oddball of a 3D platforming game with collect-a-thon spin! Become a reckless hero as you do missions, collect items and search for secrets rolling through various (inaccurate) historical events! A wristwatch was the first wait cursor in early versions of the classic Mac OS. Apple's HyperCard first popularized animated cursors, including a black-and-white spinning quartered circle resembling a beach ball. The beach-ball cursor was also adopted to indicate running script code in the HyperTalk-like AppleScript.
Hold command and press tab a few times to see which apps are open, and switch between them. When you land on one you want to quit, keep holding command and press q. If you have an unfinished document, don’t worry. It’ll warn you and ask you to save before quitting it.
Imagine if we could do that with our worries and stresses. Just hit command-q! Ahhhhh. Relief!
2. Look in Activity Monitor.
On the riese of evil mac os. Press command-spacebar to open Spotlight and type “Activity”. Press return to launch Activity Monitor. Look for anything that is using more than 10% of the CPU; that MAY be your culprit. If you know what it is and you don’t need it anymore, quit it. If you don’t know what it is, call us for help or put on your daredevil mask, hit Google, and get adventurous.

3. Restart.
This sounds cliché and very obvious but many people run their Mac for days without restarting. I recommend restarting every 2-3 days for most people or daily if you are doing a lot of multi-tasking with big apps. It’s like a cat nap for your Mac. There’s a lot going on behind the scenes if you use your Mac a lot, and some things don’t stop until you restart.
4. Close browser tabs.
If you have Safari and Chrome open with a lot of tabs, that can slow things down a lot. Final guardian mac os. Close any tabs you aren’t using anymore with command-w. Keep your Mac and your apps running lean.

5. Install RAM or an SSD.

If all else fails you can find out what it will take to upgrade your Mac hardware with more memory (RAM) or a much faster SSD hard drive (solid state drive, also known as flash storage). Here’s a video example of the speed comparison, with creepy music. Two identical Macs; one with the regular hard drive and one with the SSD installed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8aFwh3dT_E
