topic Spotify Slow on Mac OS 10.9.5 in Desktop (Mac) https://community.spotify.com/t5/Desktop-Mac/Spotify-Slow-on-Mac-OS-10-9-5/m-p/930611#M382979 Hi there,    Spotify is incredibly slow on my Mac.   I have taken the following steps to rectify, but Spotify remains my slowest application:   -Reinstalled (3 times) -Restart computer -Install all updates -Disable all local file sources -Reduce cache to maximum of 1GB   Despite these attempts, Spotify is incredibly slow. It takes at least 2 minutes to load the 'Browse' page, and a further two minutes until it is smooth. I have also excluded my internet connection as the issue.    As a Premium User, it is unacceptable that this paid service is nearly unusable. I have run the application on Windows PC and it has been running perfectly.    I am using the following:   Model Name: MacBook Pro   Model Identifier: MacBookPro10,1   Processor Name: Intel Core i7   Processor Speed: 2.3 GHz   Number of Processors: 1   Total Number of Cores: 4   L2 Cache (per Core): 256 KB   L3 Cache: 6 MB   Memory: 8 GB DDR3 1600MHz   Storage: 250GB SSD   Software  OS X 10.9.5 (13F34)   An update seems to be the only logical solution. As continued use of the current application will force me to find another music streaming service and discontinue my subscription.      Kind Regards,    Joe     Mon, 29 Sep 2014 14:55:18 GMT joemitchell 2014-09-29T14:55:18Z
