 · I have the same problem and a new MacBook Pro i5. I checked my download speeds and it says 10 mb and 2mb upload with Comcast. Other Computer works fine (old Dell).

If you work with large files or create lots of temporary files (like for video or photo editing), you should keep as much free space on your drive as the total size of those temporary files. To see how much free space you have on your Mac, click the Apple icon in the top-left corner, and then click About This Mac.
