Errors on the hard disk on your Mac OS X computer can be the cause why the computer doesn't run as fast as it used to. Let me show you how to check and repair the errors on a disk drive.
If you experience an Mac OS X program to freeze and you cannot exit it by clicking quit or using a keyboard shortcut, you can always force it to quit using the Activity Monitor.
Photograph files taken with a digital camera also carry certain Exchangeable Image File Format (EXIF) data where you can see the camera settings that were set when the photo was taken.
If you want to make a clean install of the new OS X Mavericks or even the older versions of Mac OS X, than I strongly suggest you to create a bootable OS X key or a drive.
You deleted everything from your USB key or a drive, so there should be enough free space to copy the new files, but you still get the not enough free space message in Mac OS X? This is what you need to do.
