Losing Documents or Files
If you think you have lost the critical file, then consider the spotlight. For this, we recommend you to press Cmd+[Space]. Resultantly, the search bar appears on the desktop, and you can look for a file by typing its name.
If you have forgotten your file’s name or empty your trash, then you are in real trouble. It is entirely satisfactory for Time Machine users because Spotlight can help find the files that don’t exist but been backed-up. The software is built into OS X 10.5, and after that, you only need FireWire and a hard disk.

Slow Switching
The perfect thing about modern devices is that they have excess internal storage (RAM), and you can run multiple devices simultaneously. Gladly, there’s no limit as you can desired apps without any problem.
“Virtual Memory” is responsible for all such things. Sometimes when your Mac runs out of space, it starts moving files to the temporary/hidden files on the hard disk. Surprisingly, no one notices it due to the virtual movement of the files.
But if you open-up multiple apps simultaneously or run a large data file, it becomes challenging to switch between them. The entire process takes time, and you need to wait before you switch to the next app.
The ultimate solution to this problem is to start closing some irrelevant or unnecessary files. Remember, deleting files from a hard disk isn’t an apt solution because the problem exists with RAM space. So, you need more space in RAM if you want all apps to run smoothly.
For this purpose, we recommend you to take your Mac to the nearest repair center as they can better guide you about how much your Mac can take. Experimenting at home isn’t practical and may cause a severe problem.
The professionals can upgrade your Mac by adding up different memory modules or can replace the current files with higher-capacity-chips. That’s why; it is better to trust their technical expertise if you want to use your Mac in a better condition.
Opening-Up Documents in the Wrong App
Although it is quite rare, sometimes opening-up documents in the wrong app can create complications. But no problem, it is relatively easy to fix the issue if you know how to do it correctly. For instance, if you double-click a downloaded JPEG file, it shows the option of the preview. But, if you use Photoshop to edit photos, then the preview option is entirely irrelevant and unnecessary for you.
If you want to change this setting, then select any of the JPEG file and press cmd+I. It will show the list of all apps, and you can choose any of the apps you want to change. For example, if it’s about Photoshop, select the app and go for ‘Change all.’ Once you are done with this setting, your JPEGs will start opening-up in Photoshop quickly. This solution is equally useful for any other type of file and app.
Wrapping-Up
No doubt, problems with Apple products are quite rare. Luckily, Apple products can be used for a longer time. But, dealing with them carelessly or using them inaccurately can create issues. Similarly, iMac is one of Apple’s most reliable products, but it can experience malfunctions due to specific reasons.
That’s why; it is always recommended to bring your iMac to the professional and trust-worthy iMac repair center in the Philippines. You can choose the repair center after proper research as only competent technicians can handle Apple’s products rightfully.
