Ever wanted to make your apps faster without having to get an upgrade? Through some experimentation, I believe I have found a simple way of speeding up apps. To start off:
- Go to Finder > Applications.
- Once there, choose any application such as GarageBand.
- After selecting your application, right-click on the name of the app.
- In the contextual menu, you’ll see Get Info.
- Click on Get Info.
- The Information window should come up with tons of facts about the app.
- In the Languages box, you should see many languages checked off.
- Check off all of the languages except English (“en”).
- Load up the app and you should see a significant improvement in the time it takes for the app to load.
- I noticed when clicking on the Safari icon in my dock, it only bounced once instead of 3 or 4.
