Updates for Apple


Apple updates the Pages and Numbers applications, but at the same time introduces bugs that cause problems in older machines. This happens because they have become resource hogs. It appears that the programs try to access both iTunes and iPhoto at the same time which sends your CPU into overdrive. This ramps the processor usage up over 100%. At this point your machine is crawling and barely usable. Apple is aware of the problem but so far has provided no solution. Note: the newer your Mac is, the less likely you are to notice the slow down.
