Use This Mac System Cleaner to Speed It Up

Posted by on February 3, 2012

Mac System CleanerKnowing which Mac system cleaner to use can be a sensitive subject amongst Mac users. In fact, just today I was scrolling through a popular forum for Apple users and found myself quickly enthralled with a thread entitled: “Mac Software: Mac Cleaners”. The person that had begun this thread posted the following question:

“My Mac is running slower and slower and I don’t know which Mac Cleaner is best to use, any suggestions?”

Unfortunately response’s were ones that I have seen before. Unfortunately, they are not very helpful to the average Mac user. A few were:

“You don’t need a Mac cleaner, your Mac will clean itself.”

“You can clean it up via the command line you just need to know the commands and the specific launch parameters that are necessary to do what you want.”

“There are several Mac cleaners, so just get one that will do what you need like one that that will uninstall apps and one that will handle all the extra languages, and if you need one that does…..”.

So how did this thread end? It ended with our frustrated Mac owner saying that it was all too complicated, and he gave up without knowing which Mac system cleaner to use, if any at all.

Which Mac system cleaner should you use then and is it complicated?

Before I jump in and tell you the one I recommend I will start with the area of complication. The fact is, that besides fixing any issues with our Mac we are also purchasing a Mac cleaner to do the job as easily for us as possible.

Okay, so just how easy is it to clean your Mac with the proper system cleaner? If you can click the button on your mouse, then you are good to go! Now we should talk about what particular Mac system cleaner I am talking about. I am talking about the award winning Mac software called MacKeeper.

Why use MacKeeper as your Mac’s system cleaner?

After a lot of research on Mac system cleaners and by reading the research done by others that are much more qualified than myself, my decision was that the best Mac system cleaner is the MacKeeper.

Comparing MacKeeper to other Mac system cleaners is what truly pushed it ahead of the rest. Here are just four reasons why MacKeeper stood out above the rest:

  1. MacKeeper comes with 16 different tools to clean your Mac, the others had either less cleaning tools or were individual cleaners. The problem with individual Mac system cleaning tools is that if your Mac has slowed down, it is often indicative of a full or cluttered up hard drive, so by downloading these individual apps it will just add to the problem instead of help.
  2. Most Mac system cleaners do not include anti-virus, Internet security, or theft protection programs. MacKeeper has all three. I wasn’t sure if I really needed any of these until I was researching one day about Mac viruses. Like many Mac users I underestimated the threat of viruses. However, they do indeed exist and they will ruin your lovely Mac.
  3. Unlike nearly all of the other Mac system cleaners, MacKeeper comes with customer support. Their support has great response time and can be used via chat when you have the MacKeeper open.
  4. Not only did MacKeeper win a lot of awards, it also had a lot of research that had already been done to determine if it was safe to use and would properly clean your Mac’s system. I liked the fact too that the MacKeeper’s awards and reviews came from those that are well known and respected in the Apple industry, something few Mac cleaners can say.

Here are two such MacKeeper reviews: 

“…MacKeeper does a whole lot and quite easily. It’d be worth it for cleanups alone, but add other features and you’ve got a heck of a nice application. …” 

Dave Caolo ,TUAW The Unofficial Apple Weblog

“…MacKeeper gives you the option of treating your computer’s maintenance as a whole master duty that can be accomplished from a single application…”

Juan Gonzalez, Appletell

In addition to the four above mentioned reasons of why MacKeeper was found to be the best Mac software cleaner, there are actually several other things you will find when you download your own free trial. If you use this Mac cleaner system to speed up your Mac you will love the results that you get; results that will give you a faster Mac with the click of your mouse.

How to clean your Mac in 2 minutes?

Posted by on February 1, 2012

clean up macIf you think the answer to ‘how to clean your Mac in 2 minutes’ involves your calling a certified Mac technician, well then think again. Let’s face it, it would take you at least 2 minutes just to make the phone call. Not that a Mac technician is not great at what he or she does, but even they can not clean up your Mac up in 2 minutes without some kind of Mac cleaner software.

So, if a Mac technician can’t do it in 2 minutes, cleaning it yourself in that time frame probably seems pretty impossible. However, it truly can be done in 2 minutes and better yet you won’t pay the minimum $45-$90 an hour that a service technician will charge you for a one time Mac clean up fee.

How to clean your Mac in 2 minutes? The answer is with a Mac cleaner that Mac techs use themselves!

Using a Mac clean up program is not only the least expensive way to clean up your Mac, it is also just as good as having a computer technician do it. As an advanced Mac user I know how to manually clean up my Mac, but I noticed that even even someone that knows a lot about Mac’s can still miss some things.

That is one of the reasons why I decided to get MacKeeper as my Mac cleaner. After my first Mac clean up scan, that took less then 2 minutes, I recovered over 10 gigabytes of hard drive space. But best ever was that my Mac was once again running lightning fast and performing like a dream. Needless to say, I am thrilled to have my Mac back.

 So what does a Mac cleaner really do in 2 minutes?


It can do more than you think in that short 120 seconds, and it can do more then any one could do manually with that amount of time. When you click on the tool ‘Quick Cleanup’, the Mac cleaner will do four things at once to clean your Mac’s system, all while you keep on surfing the internet or working on a spreadsheet in Numbers.

The four things it will first use to do a quick clean up your Mac are a: Binary Cutter, Log Cleaner, Language Cutter, and Cache Cleaner. These first four clean up tools will clean up your Mac by doing the following tasks:

Binary Cutter: The Binaries Cutter finds all applications with binary files  that do not run on your mac. This can give your Mac a few gigabytes of extra room.

Log Cleaner: The Logs Cleaner finds all your useless logs that applications keep that you never look at.

Cache Cleaner: The cache cleaner on the Mac clean up program will remove the caches that are no longer necessary.

Language Cutter: The language cutter goes through your applications and finds all the different languages that you do not need.  By removing these extra languages you will save a lot of hard disk space. In my case I was able to recover over 5 gigabytes.

What kind of improvement’s are made in a 2 minute Mac clean up?

Well, I’m glad you asked because just 2 minutes after you began your clean up with your Mac cleaner, you will notice a big difference in how your Mac performs and how fast it is. More officially however, the Mac cleaner did the following things during its 2 minute clean up:

  • Freed up disk space; usually many gigabytes
  • Boosted your Mac’s speed
  • Increased performance
  • Completed a full system cleanup

Last but not least 2 other Mac clean up tools:

There are two other clean up tools on the MacKeeper, which means it has a total of 6 cleaners, which are the: Binary Cutter, Log Cleaner, Duplicates Finder, Language Cutter, Old Files Finder and Cache Cleaner.

These final two Mac clean up tools also take just minutes to use. The Duplicate Finder will find any duplicate files or apps and give you the chance to get rid of them, freeing up even more hard drive space. The ‘Old Files Finder’ will find your old files and let you decide to remove them or keep them.

Within just 2 minutes of using this award winning Mac clean up tool, you will have fully optimized your Mac for it’s best performance. It probably took you longer to read this article then it will to clean up your Mac, but at least now, like me, you too know how to clean up your Mac in just 2 minutes.
