Why Teams is slowing down my Mac?
2 of my colleagues mine experienced warped MAC batteries (and cases) as a result of their machines overheating - caused by Teams. Indication is fan staying on for a long time (all day?) which cant be healthy. Im told the solution they found (probably through online search) was to change the setting in Teams to disable GPU hardware acceleration. Worked for me! KHartman
CharlieArellano I have a much more modest macbook 2017 i7 1,4 Ghz with 16 Gb RAM and have the same issue, it takes forever to open any office allocation and also the systems mac apps like activity monitor are slowed down. it happens mostly when teams is active on a videoconference . it is worse if i connect also a rather small external monitor (22" FHD).
i hope somebody could help
thank you
- Spoiler**bleep**, I guess we just need to wait, what I did the other day was to uncheck the box that said "Use graphic acceleration when available" and that made Teams even slooooower hahaha, well, let's just wait to see if someone has some answers for us, mate.
