What's that you ask? Think of RAM as the short-term memory for your computer. When your Mac is running slow it could be that you just need a RAM upgrade. Having a computer running slow can be very frustrating - sometimes you sit there just waiting to hear the dial-up tone from the 90’s. When you first unboxed your brand new computer it ran so fast, but fast forward a few years in and you’re seeing the rainbow wheel more often than not. Our technicians usually fix a corrupted OS with one of their magical programs or by wiping the machine clean and doing a reinstall. Your OS can get corrupted from a number of things - a corrupt file, losing power to your Mac, you can even do everything correctly on your computer and still somehow have your OS get corrupted (like washing your hands but still getting a cold). When a computer keeps freezing it could very well be a corrupted operating system (OS) is to blame. Having a Mac that freezes repeatedly is one of the top five most annoying things in the world and one of the top causes of migraines (I don’t know, but it sounds scientific). If it does need repairs, you can work with an Apple Authorized Service Provider (like us) to get your repair done right.
