HP Laptop takes a long time to load home screen

Last Night, I decided to update my laptop because I looked at my updates and I did what I was supposed to. It was taking a long time to restart, so I shut it off and turned it back on. My laptop said it was installing updates, so when it finished updating. I turned if on, and it went to the Hp screen where it started loading, once that screen went away the laptop went to a black screeen, and it stayed like that for about 5-10 minutes. So I turned it off and turned it back on about five or six times when I decided to press the B and windows keys, so my laptop did a bios test. Once that finished, It went straight to the HP logo, and then it just went to a black screen. I dont know if it did this because I restarted my laptop way too many times last night, or because I decided to update the laptop. Help!

Please check your sqlnet.ora.
Please try this:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NONE)
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, HOSTNAME, LDAP, ONAMES)
take care that first directory path is set to tnsnames.

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.

Mac OS X (10.4.7) Java 1.3.1 and Java 1.4.2 is installed in the Mac OS X machine.

Hi arunarun,
What site are you visiting for the photo editor?

I have a ipad 1. I seem to be having a lot of connectivity issues. It takes a long time to load and sometimes will not load a page at all. I seem to be having issues with streaming in that it will play a song and just stop.

Anyone had these issues?

Firefox is running slow, sluggishly, websites take a long time to load, to connect. I've done everything this board has suggested.

Firefox is really starting to annoy me. Sometimes it runs slow and sluggishly, other times it doesn't. Usually it does though. When I open new tabs, the connection icon will just keep swirling. I constantly get High CPU Useage alerts from my virus protection. I've done everything listed in the below articles. Does anyone have some advice? Firefox didn't use to be like this.
Thank you.

Alright, it's getting to the point where I can barely use FireFox anymore. It's getting worse by the day, I don't understand. Web pages take a LONG time to load, but sometimes they don't....it's hit or miss. But when they do take a long time, they take a long time.
It's getting very bad. I don't know much about computers, safe mode, and all that. It would really help if someone could walk me through what to do, like they would a 10-year old... actually a 10-year old probably knows more than me. Well you get the idea.
I really want to keep using this browser, but if I don't get it fixed I will have to stop. Like I said in the initial post, I've done all the things those two links suggested. It got better at first, but now it seems like it's gotten worse.

Firefox takes a long time to load, even with add-ons and auto-update disabled

When opening firefox it takes a long time (1 minute +) to load. The computer does not display any indication that firefox is loading (often leading to 2, 3 or 4 instances of Firefox trying to start due to my impatience).
My OS is Windows Vista 32 bit
Firefox is v4.0.1

Can you check your Windows Firewall settings? It's possible that it's routing Firefox requests differently. At least one other Firefox user has reported that his Windows Firewall was set to block Firefox 3.6.

Why when I click on an app it takes a long time to load, like eBay or Pinterest.

When I click on my apps, like Pinterest or eBay, it takes an extremely long time to load. This has just recently started happening and to my knowledge nothing has changed. Safari still appears to be running normally. Can anyone help me?

1. Close all apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.

Takes a long time to load library

recently when I click on itunes to initiate....it takes a very long time to load library. Never used to do this. Any advice on how to correct this.

I have 192Gb of 999Gb left
That should suffice.
I have now disabled FACES, XML and previews. I'll test this shortly to see if it helps. I'm not sure what difference this will make to other apps.
That will be important, when you want access the APerture library from other applications using te Media Browser or when you want to sync your images to your deviced usin iTunes. For images, that you want to use in the Media Browser you will need previews, or for browsing your aperture library in quick Preview mode. You can craete previews indivudally, if you do need them only for selected images. If you want to use the Media Browser with third party applications, however, you will also need the XML. See:
Aperture 3.5: Set "Share XML with other applications" to "Never" for better performance and faster quit times
Okay. I've closed Aperture and reopened it 4 times. It appears to go through this 'IMPORTING FROM iCloud November 2013' every time.
Either it takes a very long time, or there is an image or a video in your Photo Stream that cannot be imported, because it is incompatible or corrupted.
For iPhoto libraries it used to help, to remove the current "Importing" or "Auto Import" folder from the library package. Try, if this will help for your Aperture library.
See this post by LarryHN how to do it:
TS3745 Re: iphoto library error message???
If you cannot get the import to stop this way, post back, Then you have to delete the photos from your Photo Stream or reset the Photo Stream.

Qt development tools take a long time to load

Hello everyone! Since the latest qt update I have noticed that all the qt development tools (creator, designer, assistant, etc) take a really long time to load up and their behavior is sluggish at best (for instance menus take a while to show up). When I start designer from the command line I get this error
Qt at-spi: error getting the accessibility dbus address:
"Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply,
the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken."
Accessibility DBus not found. Falling back to session bus.
After this the application needs a solid minute or two to show up. Does anyone have an idea what the problem might be? Have you experienced similar behavior?

Same issue here after update to Qt5.
QtCreator with Qt5 starts a lot slower than before with Qt4.
Also i have notice another issue.
All commands that requires mouse double click such as:
> open a closed project's source/header/ui file
> browse files to add in resources
> select/edit resource item
> browse source files to add to project.
etc.
now all these commands activated by single click.
I solved that problem by recompile QtCreator against Qt4, and this strange behavour became past.
[EDIT] Also with recompiled QtCreator, the problem with slow startup solved too. [/EDIT]
Anyone have this problem too ?
Is this an issue related to Qt5 ?

Why does some websites take a long time to load?

so far i have found two websites that takes a very long time to load.
and once they get there very little of the links or anything does not work
they both work on IE but i hate that program and i would like to fix firefox but i do not know where to start

After another restart, firefox has begun throwing errors when starting from terminal. the error reported is:
/opt/kde/bin/skim: error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
This is printed 5 times, then gives up and firefox loads quickly after. So this appears to be an issue with skim and libpng similar to other problems being reported.
Some research uncovered that skim is no longer supported and is part of my kdemod3 install, however until this update it was working fine under kdemod4.

Takes a long time to load mlb website...and then slow to change from one place to another in the site...much quicker w. ie...any ideas on how to speed up? thanks drew

i know it has lots going on w/ videos etc but still is painstaking slow w/ firefox

PDF documents take a long time to load on T520

I bought my T520 this past summer and I have been happy with it, except it can take a long time to open PDF docs, between 5 and 30 seconds. Whats up? How can I fix this?
My system:
T520
Core i7
SSD
4GB RAM
Thanks for

Either adjust some settings or uninstall it. The issue is probably you have turned on some 'features' unknowingly. Some of the slow down are OCR, User Readibility (for the impaired eyes) etc, Adobe is trying to convert words into text to be read out?
The other possibility is that you are opening a PDF file that has a large gigantic pictures (vector based) or that the fonts are 'special'. These take up lots of calculations. To test this, download a small PDF file and see if the slowdown still occurs. If it does, something is wrong with the internal structure of your PDF file
My suggestion is to download the latest Adobe reader X and install this version, it's faster than the default Adobe 8 or 9 that comes with the lenovo.

Quicktime takes a LONG time to load Videos (all of a sudden)

Since a few weeks it takes Quicktime FOREVER to open a Video file. Depending on its size, it takes longer. It takes almost 1:30 for a 700MB Video file, for instance.
I dont know why this is, and I havnt really changed anything, besides the Apple Updates. It doesnt matter if the files are DivX/XviD or WMV.
Is there any Config file I can reset? What could cause a problem like this?
This is really ******* me off, because it pretty much makes Quicktime (for which I paid a lot of money) useless.
VLC is playing those Videos instantaneously

{quote:title=Jon Walker wrote:}
2) If people using Perian suddenly develop problems which disappear following removal/replacement or re-install of the component, then I would assume the "component list" from which QT re-compiles its list of available components every time it opens, has somehow been re-ordered. When two or more components can handle the same content, either the last one to be installed takes precedence or they conflict with each other. If this list is re-ordered for some reason during a QT update, then the component that normally takes precedence may not be accessed and an older, less compatible component may be called instead.{quote}
Thanx Jon....Fantastic answer
I had the exact same issue. Perian was installed long time ago (back when it wasn't a prefpane, merely a .component that went into the Quicktime folder in /library). Recently, a software update caused most .avi files to take forever to load in Quicktime, but re-installing Perian (now a prefpane?why?) has probabbly reinstalled the component......Quicktime is back to running superfast
Thanx for the original advice QTKirk

Photo galleries take a LONG time to load...

hello. i've noticed that when i make a photo page, with say 80+ photos in it, it takes a really long time for the page to load in a browser. If i do the same thing from iphoto, and make a mobile me gallery page, it loads much faster. Any suggestions on what i can do?
id love to be able to link to the mobile me gallery from iweb, but then there's no way to get from the mobile me gallery BACK to the iweb pages. (right?)
thanks
Niko

To add to Roddy's suggestions you can embed an iPhoto MobileMe gallery in an iWeb page with iFrame code in an HTML snippet. This demo page has an example of that:MobileMe Galleries and Quicktime Movies
If you want visitor to not go to other MMe galleries you might have set the Advanced settings for the gallery to Hide gallery on album page. That will make the gallery a single entity.

What to do when apple tv purchases take a long time to load?

We have had our Apple Tv for a few months, love it.
However recently some of our purchased (and sometimes just netflix and hulu) take an extra long amount of time to load (4 hours?) Some cases we are quoted 52 hrs?
Very frustrating especially when your acessing content that is "instant".
Our wireless connection has the highest signal strength when checked.
Any ideas?
Mush appreciated.
t.

Signal strength doesn't really tell you much.
Check your actual speed using speedtest.net.
Check for interference using istumbler.net ot netstumbler
Make sure you are using your ISPs DNS (settings - network - configure DNS - automatic)
