Everybody
like to work with Mac because it is one of the most advanced
operating system in the world. So,
many people never consider regular maintenance for their Macs, they
believe “Mac doesn't need any maintenance”. Here I am going to
share my experience in this post “if you do maintenance of your
Mac, you can keep your Mac in tip top shape”.
I
and one of my friends were working on Mac. Our final exam was about
to over and we had to submit final project. Our Mac was freezed and
we were unable to work on project. It was very critical situation for
us.
Finally
we were suggested by one of our college seniors to use Onyx software
and scan whole Mac and we did it. Thank God, our project was
subimitted successfully due to Onyx tool. Our Mac was cleaned by this
tool and got back to it's previous
speed so that we could easily work
on
project.
What
is the benefit of using Onyx?
S.M.A.R.T.
Status:-
After
installation OnyX will verify the S.M.A.R.T. status and Startup
Volume.
Choose
a Tab / Feature:-
It has these tools- Verify,
Maintenance, Cleaning, Utilities, Automation, Parameters
etc.
In
the Onyx tab, you can clean the following cache elements from your
system:
- Boot Cache
- Kernel and Extensions
- International Preferences (Character Palatte Cache, Keyboard Viewer Cache, and more)
- CUPS Jobs
- Directory Services
- QuickTime components
- Audio components
- Other components
- Boot Cache
- Kernel and Extensions
- International Preferences (Character Palatte Cache, Keyboard Viewer Cache, and more)
- CUPS Jobs
- Directory Services
- QuickTime components
- Audio components
- Other components
All
of these cache items take up valuable drive space; so,
when you cleaned these items, you get back some of this disk space.
In
the User tab, you can delete the following items from the cache:-
- Applications
- Preferences of System Panels
- Audio Units
- Java and Applets Java
- Desktop Background
- International Preferences
- Dock Icons
- ColorSync
- QuickLook
- Temporary Items
- Applications
- Preferences of System Panels
- Audio Units
- Java and Applets Java
- Desktop Background
- International Preferences
- Dock Icons
- ColorSync
- QuickLook
- Temporary Items
Similarly
the internet tab
helps to remove browser-specific items from your Mac without having
to open your web browser. The fonts tab will let you remove the
following items from the Fonts Cache: System and Users Font Cache,
Adobe Systems Font Cache etc..
Using
the features of Onyx, you can keep your Mac speedy and optimized.
