Firefox is taking a very long time to load any web site. It used to be extremely fasta and stable. Is there a current problem? I have the most recent updates installed.

As of the last week, I have not experienced the usual rapid download to signing in to Yahoo, and once there, other sites are experiencing the same lag time. I have to wait till Firefox catches up with the download speed on the web. I am NOT experiencing this with Internet Explorer. I much prefer to use Mozilla, but don't understand why this is happening. Are there any issues that are being worked on from your end? There are NO changes to my computer (Windows 7), except recent updates from Mozilla.

Hello Billyeee,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with Wi-Fi on your MacBook Pro.  I would be concerned about this too.
I recommend following the steps in the section titled "Symptom: The Wi-Fi network seems slow" in the following article to resolve an issue like the one you described:

    OK. If you believe that.
    When the disk is starting to die it can be bad for a moment and then be good for a while. If there was no problem while you were checking it of course it shows up good.
    I tell you those are the signs of a disk that is about to die.

  • Web pages taking a very long time to load; nothing wrong with my internet connection.

    I've contacted my ISP and they've told me there is nothing wrong on their end and that my modem is running perfectly. I've done a speed test and my upload is 33mbps+ and download is 5.5mbps+.
    The problem is, it takes webpages a very long time to load. Sometimes longer than others, but sometimes it's so long I give up. There doesn't seem to be a difference between when I type in a URL or an IP address directly into the address bar.
    One night last week I completely lost the ability to connect to any webpages, and then when I woke up in the morning I was having these problems with connection speed, and the problem has persisted for several days.

  • For the past few days, firefox is taking a very long time to display pages, and often freezes for minutes at a time. Its very frustrating. It happens especially on facebook, but on every website lately.... what to do?

    the amount of time it takes to load is so frustrating that i close firefox and use other methods 2 get onto the web. i would rather use firefox, but time is a commodity. please help.

    Your MyWebSearch plug-in is the cause of many problems. Google for information and advice on how to get rid of it.
    If that doesn't help, you should work your way through this(Safe Mode,Problematic extensions etc ) -
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting%20extensions%20and%20themes
    Make sure your plug-ins such as Flash are up-to-date -

  • Firefox is taking a very long time to download, how much do i have to wait?

    why soooooooooo slowwwwwww???

    <blockquote>
    Normally you would get Firefox for your Android device from Google Play. That site is not under Mozilla's control.
    If you are downloading from a different site, hmm, what site is it?
    </blockquote>
    I am dowloading it from google play, but im also downloading opera and a couple other things, overall how long do you think it should take?

  • HT1414 iPhone restore is taking a very long time

    I was prompted to restore my iPhone  on iTunes... It's taking a very long time, is this normal?

    If you are restoring from a backup and you had lots of photos inside the camera roll, it might take longer to restore.
    If you are using iTunes on your computer and setting it back to factory settings, without using a backup, it should not take that long if the software had already been downloaded to your computer.

  • Quicktimes taking very long time to load-Big Q appears instead.

    When posting ipod (small) quicktimes to my .mac account (4 per page), the site is taking a really long time to load-a large Q appears instead of the usual Quicktime video frame for a few minutes. They eventually load, but it takes a long time. I've used this program and these files for a year without incident, and now there is this huge delay for my clients. The files aren't very big 2MB-20MB.
    Maybe it's my Safari or Firefox acting up?
    Here's the site if anyone is able to have a quick look and tell me if it loads quickly on their machine:
    http://web.mac.com/chopperfilms/iWeb/Steve%20Gaskin/Projects%201.html
    Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.

    To wait for 27MB to load is too big or rather long wait for your audience/visitor. Set poster frames for all and use movie ref to load only the one the visitor chooses so they don't get the letter 'Q' and use 'fast start' so loading long or big files feels like less waiting. Were poster frames and movie refs getting done automatically by iWeb before?
    I am actually getting the letter 'Q' with a question mark in it 60/40 percent of the time in a QuickTime I posted which I am trying to figure how to get rid of.

  • Messages are taking a very long time to send.

        Hello, I'm currently having a big problem with messages taking a very long time to actually send. The spinning wheel will stay there for hours. It only happens in one or two skype groups at a time where I can send messages normally in other groups. Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this?

    I have been having this problem for the last 4 releases. I have had some take up to 8 hours to send before. I can usually fix it by signing out then restarting skype. Just restarting skype doesn't work, nor does just signing in again.

  • I just got an iPhone 5 32GB and i have backed up my old 3GS 32GB via itunes (20GB of data on there) and it is taking a very long time to restore to my iPhone5. Its taken more than 20 hours and says 12 hours remaining. The text "Time remaining" flickers.

    I just got an iPhone 5 32GB and i have backed up my old 3GS 32GB via itunes (20GB of data on there) and it is taking a very long time to restore to my iPhone5. Its taken more than 20 hours and didnt complete.
    The text "Time remaining ... hours" flickers.
    I set it to start restoring from the 3GS backup yesterday at 1pm and the time remaining kept on increasing. I left it overnight and at 9am this morning the progress bar hadnt moved and it said 12 hours remaining.
    I don't know why its taking so long. I unplugged it and it just set up as new phone. So i did a factory reset and tried again at 4pm and it is now 12am and it says 4 hours remaining and my computer occasionally flickers. (Its not a bad computer, 2 months old, i7, 6GB RAM, Heaps of HDD space). It also messes with google chrome and i cannot browse the web at all while it is trying to restore my iphone.
    I have tried restarting my laptop and should i reinstall itunes? I simply dont see why it should take longer than 20 hours to copy over 20GB of data!
    Can anyone help me?
    Thank you

  • Is there any way to connect time capsule to a MacBook Pro directly via USB. I have a large amount of data that I want to back up and it is taking a very long time (35GB is taking 3 hrs, I have 2TB if files in total)...)?

    Perhaps via USB. I have a large amount of data that I want to back up and it is taking a very long time (35GB is taking 3 hrs, I have 2TB if files in total)...? I want to use TimeCapsule as back-up for an archive which is curently stored on a 2 TB WESC HD. 

    No, you cannot backup via direct usb connection..
    But gigabit ethernet is much faster anyway.. are you connected directly by ethernet?
    Is the drive you are backing up from plugged into the TC? That will slow it down something chronic.. plug that drive in by its fastest connection method.. WESC sorry I have no idea. If ethernet use that.. otherwise USB direct to the computer.. always think what way the files come and go.. but since you are copying from the computer everything has to go that way.. it makes things slower if they go over the same cable.. if you catch the drift.

    Hi Kunal,
    is there multiple report viewer webpart on page? if so then SharePoint doesn't do well with multiple report viewer web parts. if possible then merge the reports in one.

  • TDMS Shell - DB Export from source/sender system taking a VERY long time

    We're trying to build a TDMS Receiver system using the TDMS Shell technique. We've run into a situation wherein the initial  DB Export from source/sender system is taking a VERY long time.
    We are on ECC 6.0, running on AIX 6.1 and DB UDB v9.7. We're executing the DB export from sapinst, per instructions. Our DB export parallelizes, then the parallel processes one by one whittle away to just one remaining, and there we find out that the export is at that point single-threaded, and exporting table BSIS.
    BSIS is an FI transactional data table. We're wondering why is the DB export trying to get BSIS and its contents out??? Isn't the DB export in TDMS Shell technique only supposed to get SAP essential only config and master data, and NOT transactional data?
    Our BSIS table is nearly 700 GB in size by itself.  That export has been running for nearly a week now, with no end in site.
    What are we doing wrong? We suspect we may have missed something, but really don't think we do. We also suspect that the EXCLUSION table in the TDMS Shell technique may be the KEY to this whole thing. It's supposed to automatically exclude very large tables, but in this case, it most certainly missed out in excluding BSIS for some reason.
    Anyway, we're probably going to fire up an OSS Message with SAP Support to help us address this perplexing issue. Just thought we'd throw it out there to the board to see if anyone else somewhere has run into similar circumstances and challenges.  In the meantime, any feedback and/or advice would be dearly appreciated. Cheers,

    Hello
    Dont be bothered by the other TPL file DDLDB6_LRG.TPL, we are only concerned with DDLDB6.TPl.
    Answer following questions to help me analyze the situation -
    1) What is the current size of export dump
    2) Since when is the exports running
    3) What is the size of the source DB? Do you have huge amount of custom developments?
    4) Did you try to use table splitting?
    5) Do you doubt that there may be other transaction tables (like BSIS) which have been exported completely?
    6) Did you update the SAP Kernel of your source system to latest version before starting the Shell package?
    7) Were the DB statistics update during the shell or were they already updated before starting Shell?
    8) Is your system a distributed system i.e. Central instance and Database instance are on different application servers?

  • Inventory aged reports are taking a very long time to run

    We are using Standard delievered extractors for Inventory.  We have build an Aged report and it is taking a very long time to run as more an more data is added.  We put the inventory in buckets 0-30, 31-60, .... >365 days.  We are aging based on a batch date the user enters.  the problem is it has to go through every record to recalculate because they are non cumulative.
    any ideas/suggestions on how to make this more efficient?  New design?

    Hi MM,
    We can use snapshot of monthly data from Query and store it in DSO at month level.
    We had used APD on Query and then Stored them in DSO1(WO)->DSO2(STD)->Cube->report based on Snap Shot.
    From the New Query , calculate the Age.
