Syncronisation time takes ages

I recently purchased an Ipod Touch but after connecting to the computer it takes more than 2 hours to syncronise with my IPOD Touch - I thought this was just because it was the first time - but every time since it takes more than 2 hours - I do not think this can be normal - could it be that my 3-year old computer is out of date or is it really a problem with my particular IPOD ?

no that's not normal.
is your itunes and ipod software up-to-date? (if not, update it)
then try restoring your ipod. if this does not help, it is probably faulty and you should take/send it to apple to have it looked at.

    Can you help please?

    Thanks King_Penguin for taking time to read and reply. 
    I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago.  I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam.  I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase. 
    Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions.  Could you please explain? 
    I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items.

    Hello,
    This problem has only started happening in the last few days. Every time i log on the get emails, the inbox has a message saying 'building summary file'. it then takes ages to do this. i have tried deleting most of the in box and compacting the file but it still continues.

  • Time Machine back up takes ages.

    Hi. I still got the problem that my time machine backup take ages to complete.
    I installed a widged called time machine buddy, someone told me to do and now that's what it shows me.
    Any idea why it looks like it does the backup twice in a row and for what reason it takes about half an hour to copy less then 1GB.
    I allready deleted the HD I use for the backup and got it all new but it did not solve the problem.
    Cheers.

    Very good question, as I've had the same issue for over 2 months since installing a new hard drive. Pondini very kindly, patiently and astutely helped me get a hanging 2 hour back up down to a respectable 15 minutes, but that is still too long (when nothing has changed between back ups, in particular). You articulate the question and pose the dilemma far better than I ever expressed. The seeming "dual backup" seems to be the culprit. Maybe Pondidni can give us some guidance based on your post.

  • FAST enabled MView takes ages to refresh

    Hi All,
    I have a materlialized view which is based on a single fact table ( OAS_BALANCE_UNIONED 11,445,156 rows) and a bunch of dimension tables each containing limited number of rows (a typical start schema).
    The conditioins to make the mview fast refreshable have been met so the mview created successfully with the FAST option.
    The mview then worked just fine after than and had been refreshing FAST (6 minutes) for the whole day till other mviews started to refresh in the same time. Some of those mviews read from some of the base tables of the mview in question. Since then, the mivew has started to take ages (3 hours) to refresh. There is surely something wrong because the COMPLETE refresh was faster than that.
    Later, I stopped all the refresh jobs of the other mviews. Yet, the FAST mview still has the same problem of taking ages to refresh.
    When I monitored the session that refreshes the mview, I noticed in the "Long Ops" that
    most of the time is spent on a step named as "Hash Join" (it appears in the Message column). Hash join occurrs because of the outer join.
    Why my FAST mview suddenly started to take so long time to refresh?
    How can I make my FAST mivew really refresh fast?

    Hard to say why the refresh is now slow. Possibilties include
    * system resources implemented by the fast refresh
    * something changed on the query making the background query run slowly
    Look at the query first. 18 tables, with almost every join an outer join. Some of the tables appear more than once in the query.

  • My ipod touch 2g a1288 wont restore. The download takes ages then ipod puts itself back in2 DISABLED mode, HELP!!

    Ok so my ipod is making me really angry. If I don't figure this thing out today after trying for so long I think I'm going to take my car and repeatedly run the thing over until its in a million pieces.
    Right now heres the long story which ill try keep kinda short but I do need to explain whats happened thus far
    Ipod touch (2G), Mondel: A1288 which has gone into disabled mode and is basically useless at the moment.
    Now I've done the thing where you hold the two buttons while plugged into laptop until itunes detects ipod in recovery mode. Then I try to hit restore, this starts up the download/ update thing which will not download because here in the dark ages of New Zealand our internet is slow. So because its so slow the ipod touch takes itself back into disabled mode! ahhhhhhhhhhhhh so FRUSTRATING
    Now I'm aware that I can pre-download the firmware (which will still probably take ages but may save the ipod from timing out and going back into disabled screen) and then just hit control and select it when ipod is detected in recovery mode by itunes. The only thing wrong with doing this however, is when I go to the site to get the firmware from http://http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/ and look in the drop down menu of 2G ipod touches, I don't see my model listed there so I'm wondering what firmware I can download for the A1288? Is it compatible with a different version? because it wasn't even listed in the drop-down menu of ipod touches.
    I just wan't the thing going again! they put these things into technology that make it useless because they know the average joe like me will just give up trying to fix it and buy a new one. Well not this time, if I cant fix this, I'm going to run the thing over and that will be that!
    Many thanks for reading my speal, I hope somebody can help

    lol yea when i inserted the link i just copied and pasted thats why that happend... Lets try again... http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/
    Anyways when I go to it theres a drop-down list and you select the one you want and I know the number next to it identifies the model but the thing is they don't have my model listed so my main question is, what version eg. 2.1.1. or 2.2.1 etc. etc. etc. etc. will work with my model of ipod touch which is the 2g Model A1288?
    Does anybody know? Does it work with any firmware thats for 2G ipod touches or do i have to get firmware thats model specific?

  • Nokia N95 8GB takes ages refreshing even for one t...

    Hi All.
    I have had this REALLY frustrating problem...
    Every time i add a track to my phone, then i refresh it takes AGES to update the library.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?
    Nokia N97 Mini
    V: 10.0.020 : 14/10/09
    RM-555
    Old: N95 8GB : V 20.0.016 : 28/09/08 : RM-320

    The reason it takes a while is that the phone has to scan all memory every time you refresh, doesn't matter whether you're adding/removing 1 track or 1,000 as the phone doesn't know what needs to be added without checking.
    One of the downsides of having more space.
    If you're deleting tracks from the library, you can still listen to other tracks while this is happening: I listen to a lot of podcasts and always delete the ones I've aleady listened to as I'm listening to a new one. Again, deleting 10 tracks together takes the same time as deleting one.
    If you want to listen to a track you've just added, you can do this while the music player library refreshes, just start playing it using file manager then switch to the library to do the refresh.

  • Google, Facebook etc take ages to load on Safari (and Firefox)

    There have been a few threads on this issue...but none seem to have a solution that works for us.
    We have two laptops (MacBook (MB) and MacBook Pro (MBP)) using an airport wireless.   The MP has all of a sudden decided that google and facebook will not load up straight away like they have always done in the past...they take ages to load up (we are talking "go get a coffee..and read the newspaper" times).  Other websites just fire up as fast as ever.   All sites fire up super fast on the MBP.
    What we have tried:
    1. Rebooted the modem, wireless router and computers
    2. Reset Safari, deleted and reinstalled Firefox 4.0.1.  Wiped out all caches , cookies etc
    3. Restored entire computer from time tunnel from a month ago...when life was good!
    4.. Changed/added DNS numbers to airport (via airport utilities) and change the airport settings (using openDNS numbers).
    5. Flushed the DNS resolver caches...
    Still no good....
    What are we missing?   What can the MB have to cause the issue that the MPB does not?
    MB is on OSX 10.5.8
    MBP is on OSX 10.6.7
    Please help...my wife uses the MB and is angry that her beloved Facebook and Google are just not working

    Ok.. from the Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Extensions tab. If you have any installed, turn that off, quit then relaunch Safari, try Facebook.
    If it's not Extensions...  try troubleshooting Safari third party add ons.

  • Date&Time takes a long time to load

    Hi I'm getting really frustrated, becasue everytime I want to look at the calander in the date and time utility, I try and open it and it takes AGES to open. Please help, what can I do to fix this???

    ntbit
    You need to look in your log files to see if anything strange is happening. The simplest way to look at log files is to use Console.
    Open the Console application from /Applications/Utilities. It will default to showing the "console.log" and possibly the "system.log". Use the File menu if necessary to get both these logs open, and use the Broom to Clear both windows.
    Now try to open the Date & Time and see what appears in either of these windows. Copy and paste it here.

  • The first upload takes ages! even after connected

    Hi all,
    I have noticed a little issue I have when uploading a single file to the remote server via SFTP, The first upload will take ages about 30 secs before completing. The activity icon will stop on one quarter for this time and then complete when ready. I have no issues with uploading after the first file has been done. This happens each time i connect to a new FTP account. I'm not too concerned about the time delay, I just hope that the connection is not being interceptered by a third party or somthing.
    Could it just be that DW is communicating with the server to secure it the first time around or am i paranoid?
    Using the lastest DW CC
    Win 7 Home Premium, updated!
    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, this problem is pretty irritating to say the least.
    FTP is the simplest of operations and the most fundemental. But ever since Adobe tookover Macromedia its just gone to pot.
    Already I cant use the ftp for anything with more than 50 files and have to use a REAL ftp tool like fo;eZilla to who I dont pay a huge amount each month for professional software.
    But waiting upto a minute for a 5kb file to upload is ridiculous. I might as well multitask with a third party tool. Nice one Adobe. I hope your shares are doing well.

  • Having upgraded to yosemite on iMac it now takes ages to but up

    why is it since upgrading to Yosemite on my iMac it now takes ages to start up when using the start button?

    Different OS, different start up/boot up time.  Yes, Yosemite does have a slower boot up even on the fastest Macs.  The good news is that Yosemite restarts are faster than the boot up time.

  • When im playing any games it takes ages to load and then crashes it is very annoying

    Right excample facebook games when i play they take ages to load it also keeps saying i need to update flash player which ive done severl times a day and makes no difference then it will just bo of and say page could not be found please reload . Even when i try to open firefox 4 its very slow and then might open 2 or 3 pages at a time

    If it's taking several hours then that is likely due to your internet connection. You can verify at speedtest.net
    6mbps required for instant 720P
    8mbps for 1080P
    You can switch to SD in the settings (which only requires 3mbps)
    You can also check istumbler or netstumbler for interference
    Make sure you are on your ISPs DNS
    The reloading is normal. There is no accessible storage on ATV. The small flash is used for caching streamed content, if you access other things or turn the device off it will be flushed.
