5 ways to optimize your Mac\u2019s memory (RAM)<\/h2>

Your Mac\u2019s random access memory (RAM) affects its ability to multitask and handle software requirements. When it\u2019s overloaded, you\u2019ll see issues with loading times, slower multitasking, and lag.<\/p>

If you\u2019re encountering RAM issues on your Mac<\/a>\u2014or if you\u2019re looking to avoid them proactively\u2014try these tips.<\/p>

1. Monitor your memory usage<\/h3>

Your Mac\u2019s Activity Monitor (found in Applications > Utilities > Activity Monitor) can help you identify any apps that might be consuming too much memory and bogging down your device.<\/p>

2. Quit unnecessary apps or processes<\/h3>

Along with memory-hogging apps, your Mac may have background processes or programs running that don\u2019t need to be open. Use your Mac\u2019s Activity Monitor to find and close them down.<\/p>

3. Assign resources for your Mac and virtual machine<\/h3>

One of the neat things Parallels Desktop can do when you\u2019re running a virtual machine (VM) on your Mac<\/a> is assign resource usage.<\/p>

Before startup, Parallels Desktop will check your system to see how many resources like RAM it can reasonably assign.<\/p>

You can check on your assigned resources by opening your VM\u2019s configuration menu and then going to Hardware > CPU & Memory.<\/p>

In that menu, you can choose to leave your settings at default or use the allocation slider to specify resources like RAM<\/a> manually and control your virtual machine optimization on Mac.<\/p>

4. Consider a RAM upgrade<\/h3>

If your Mac often struggles with the same programs and issues, consider upgrading its RAM. Macs do allow you to do this, and it can help improve performance.<\/p>

Heads up<\/strong>: You can learn more about troubleshooting and hardware improvements for your Mac<\/a> on our knowledge base.<\/p>

5. Use Parallels Toolbox to free up memory<\/h3>

Parallels Toolbox<\/a> is included with the purchase of Parallels Desktop Pro. It offers over 50 tools that give you quick access to hidden, difficult-to-remember, or nonexistent functions on your Mac and your Windows VM.<\/p>

One of these resources is the Free Memory tool, which helps you reclaim inactive RAM and improve your system\u2019s responsiveness<\/a>.<\/p>

Tips and tricks for disk space management on your Mac<\/h2>

Much like a room that\u2019s too cluttered to move around in, an overloaded storage drive can prevent your Mac from being able to do its best work.<\/p>

When your Mac is struggling with clutter like random files, duplicates, and unnecessary downloads, try these tips to keep it under control.<\/p>

1. Use your storage management tool<\/h3>

Macs come with a built-in storage management tool (found in Apple Menu > About This Mac > Storage > Storage Settings). This tool helps you clean up large files quickly and effectively.<\/p>

2. Tidy your folders regularly<\/h3>

Your Downloads and Desktop folders can both become full quickly. Make sure you clean them out regularly to keep your Mac clutter-free<\/a>.<\/p>

3. Use the Clean Drive tool in Parallels Toolbox to clear space<\/h3>

Another popular utility in Parallels Toolbox is the Clean Drive tool, which scans your device to locate and clean up free space on your Mac, including running temporary file cleanup. You can learn more about how the Clean Drive tool works<\/a> in our knowledge base.<\/p>

You can also try out the Find Duplicates tool<\/a> in Parallels Toolbox, which does something similar but specifically looks for duplicate files.<\/p>

4. Uninstall any unused apps<\/h3>

Apps and programs can take up a surprising amount of space. If you have any you haven\u2019t used in a while\u2014or won\u2019t need to use in the near future\u2014consider uninstalling them to save space.<\/p>

5. Archive your large files externally<\/h3>

Have big files that don\u2019t need to live on your Mac\u2019s internal drive<\/a>? Archiving them to an external hard drive frees up internal space while keeping those files handy for when you need them.<\/p>

6. Let your Mac optimize its own storage<\/h3>

Macs have a built-in storage optimization feature that can help you keep clutter under control. By turning on Optimize Storage (found in Apple Menu > About This Mac > Storage > Storage Settings), you can let macOS automatically remove unnecessary files.<\/p>

How to optimize your Mac\u2019s battery<\/h2>

Looking to extend your Mac\u2019s battery life? Try these battery optimization tips to improve your Mac device\u2019s performance<\/a>.<\/p>

1. Monitor your apps\u2019 power usage<\/h3>

Your Mac\u2019s Activity Monitor can help you identify and manage apps that consume too much energy<\/a>.<\/p>

2. Switch out power-hungry apps<\/h3>

If you do find apps using too much power, try replacing them with more energy-efficient alternatives.<\/p>

3. Use Parallels Toolbox\u2019s Energy Saver tool to save energy<\/h3>

Parallels Toolbox includes an Energy Saver tool that can help you extend battery life<\/a> and simplify battery management for your Mac.<\/p>

4. Adjust any battery-heavy system settings<\/h3>

Some Mac settings\u2014like display brightness, keyboard backlight, and even some visual effects and animations\u2014can drain your battery faster. Adjusting them can extend your battery life.<\/p>

5. Switch to the Safari browser<\/h3>

Safari is specially designed to use less power on Macs, so using it instead of other browsers can help your battery last longer. Don\u2019t forget to do some cache cleanup every now and then, too, to keep your browser light.<\/p>

6 tips and tricks for network optimization on Mac<\/h2>

Your network is as much a part of your experience as your device is. If you\u2019re running into issues loading web-based pages and resources, it could mean you\u2019re experiencing network issues.<\/p>

To tune up your network, try these tips.<\/p>

1. Keep your router\u2019s firmware updated<\/h3>

If your Mac is struggling with the network, the problem isn\u2019t always your Mac. Making sure your Wi-Fi router\u2019s firmware is up to date keeps your network in good shape.<\/p>

2. Use the right Wi-Fi channels<\/h3>

The Wi-Fi channel you use can impact network performance. For example, while a 5-GHz channel will have higher speeds than a 2.4-GHz channel, it has a shorter range\u2014so if you\u2019re too far from a router or pod, you\u2019ll need to switch channels.<\/p>

3. Use Parallels Toolbox\u2019s Network Usage tool to monitor networks<\/h3>

Parallels Toolbox has a handy Network Usage tool to help you monitor your network usage and identify usage patterns and spikes.<\/p>

4. Disconnect from your Wi-Fi<\/h3>

Not using your Wi-Fi right away? Disconnecting from it can save your battery<\/a> and reduce security risks for your Mac.<\/p>

5. Set up device prioritization<\/h3>

Most routers will allow you to define priority levels for devices connected to your network through your router interface. You can tell it to prioritize essential devices, which should improve bandwidth allocation.<\/p>

6. Turn on content caching<\/h3>

Content caching is a nifty feature for macOS devices that stores copies of files you access frequently in a temporary storage area. This way, when you open those files, they load much more quickly.<\/p>

Other ways to keep your Mac current and optimized<\/h2>

Hungry for more ways to keep your Mac in tip-top shape? We\u2019ve got a few extra tips and tricks that may help out.<\/p>

1. Stay ahead on your updates<\/h3>

Software updates often include fixes and tweaks to improve performance. Making sure you have the latest versions of your OS and apps can keep your Mac running smoothly<\/a>\u2014and as a bonus, it\u2019s good for your device\u2019s cybersecurity, too.<\/p>

2. Monitor your CPU usage<\/h3>

Your Mac\u2019s CPU is its brain, and when it\u2019s operating at capacity, the rest of your processes will slow down.<\/p>

If you\u2019re running Windows or another OS in a VM, Parallels Desktop has a CPU usage monitor<\/a> in the virtual machine\u2019s window tray that tracks how much of your Mac\u2019s power is being taken up by Windows processes and helps you shut down unnecessary ones.<\/p>

3. Declutter your dock<\/h3>

Remove any unnecessary items from your dock and menu bar to clear up clutter and keep your device organized.<\/p>

Maximize the potential of your Mac equipped with Parallels Desktop<\/h2>

With your Mac running at its best, there\u2019s only one thing that can take its performance farther\u2014the right tools. Make the most of your Mac\u2019s potential with Parallels Desktop and enjoy the best of both the Mac and Windows worlds on one device.<\/p>
