Try to do a repair permissions from the recovery partition of your Mac. After
a restart, when you hear the chimes, press Command R. This should bring you
into the recovery partition. Wait about a minute, and press VO F5 to bring up
Voiceover.
You will hear a disc utility option, open that and do any permission repairs.
then reboot.

I just downloaded the new version today. I'm a little frustrated with it
because it seems like everything is slower now but maybe that's because I'm not
used to it. I'm not sure. I haven't been able to repair permissions either
because it has been lagging. Any specific settings I need to set before getting
started?
