Web browsers taking 20 minutes to load.

My web browser is taking about 20 minutes to load, whether it is IE, Chrome, or safari. this only started about 2 or 3 days ago.
Is my modem dying, or is it the computer?

Thank you for the additional information. It was exactly what I needed.
Since the computer is older, it would be a great idea to do a full System Recovery; especially if there are no viruses or other malware. This will return the computer to its original configuration when you bought it. It will eliminate any software problems that there might be, also.
HP makes very fine computers. It is not surprising to me that it is still running after 4 years.

Why are illustrator CS4 3rd party plugin panels taking minutes to load?

Hello Everyone
I use IL on Mac and use some 3rd party plugins with my software [This problem is most noticeable with the Cvalley plugins - Filterit and Xtreampath]. The problem is that often they'll take many minutes to load and stay as blank grey panels [as seen in the picture] with no manipulatable variables - does anyone know the reason for this and how to speed up their load time? as you'd imagine it slows me down a lot.
Here's an image of one of the dreaded blank panels; http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d188/OphidianShenzi/blankpanel-1.jpg
Thank you greatly in advance again.

Are any of them PowerPC plugins (pre-2006)?
Is the sufficient disk space?*:

Slow image load time in web browsers. My images load too slowly.

Hi, My images are loading slowly in my site. They are png and all under 600kb. Should they be jpegs (they are photos) Can anyone advise?

I would do a few tests, I think you might be fine with the High setting, but also try a little lower if you can to conserve load time. It would be good to get your files to around 120kb each.
A .jpeg file is the way to go, as .png files tend to be 20-40% larger.
Here is an image that is set to 730x486- saved as Medium - Quality 50 - jpeg - final size 99 kb

OSX web browsers - image issues on one Mac, not on others

I know this will seem very vague and could have any of a number of causes, but I am just totally stumped on this. On my MBP (details below), some images and pages in web browsers simply will not load. No "broken image" icon, just nothing there - a blank. This is not a Safari issue, as any browser I try on the machine (Firefox, Chrome) gives the same result. This problem has been going on for some time; I believe it predates Snow Leopard, though both systems are up-to-date as of now.
On my iMac (OS 10.6.6 as well), the same images and pages load fine!
For example, I use WordPress for my blog. If I write a post in the web version on my MBP, the icons for adding media simply do not show up (There's simply text saying Upload/Insert, then an empty gap. There are supposed to be icons for pictures, video, audio, etc). Interestingly, though there are no icons there, apparently the LINKS are still there, just invisible. Because rolling over the gap, I can see the various links in the status bar. So if I click in the right spot of the empty gap, I get taken to a page where I should be able to upload a picture. But then we hit the next iteration of the problem: the linked-to page doesn't load, either. Just a blank page. This happens in any browser I try on the MBP.
On my iMac, everything shows up and looks fine in all browsers.
So there's obviously some global software difference between the MBP and the iMac; for whatever reason, some rendering(?) technology is being "blocked" on the MBP. But I see no configuration differences of note between the systems in System Preferences or app support etc.
Any ideas? I know this comes across as incredibly vague.

After verifying that all of your browsers are up to date, clear or delete your history and caches through your browsers Preferences.
Disconnect all peripherals from your computer. Boot from your install disc & run _*Repair Disk*_ from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
Select your language.
Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
Select *Disk Utility.*
Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click *First Aid.*
Click _*Repair Disk.*_
Restart your computer when done.
Repair permissions after you reach the desktop-http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751 and restart your computer when done.

Project taking 5 minutes to load

Hi,
I just publisehd a course with 190 slides. It has some short videos embedded and simple animations. Althought the project loads fast on my desktop, it is taking 5 minutes to load over the web. My users are not gonna want to wait this long. Any suggestions as to what I can do to speed up the loading time?
Thank you,
Heloisa Kinder

Try reducing the preloading % from 100% to something like 20%. Preferences, Project, Start and End.
If that is not sufficient, you'll have to reduce the filesize.

Firefox takes minutes to load upon starting up and changing web pages

When I open firefox in Windows Vista, it takes minutes(sometimes up to ten) to start up.Once firefox has loaded and I go to visit another web page, it takes minutes to load that web page. I downloaded Firefox 3.6.7 when it first came out, and it just recently started doing this. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling firefox, but this did not work. It is not a problem with my internet connection or operating system, because internet explorer and safari only takes seconds to load up and load web pages. I have run various scans to see if it was a virus or a bug, but nothing came up. How do I fix this, because using Internet Explorer is really getting on my nerves?

My Firefox won't load any websites, but other web browsers will. I have tried following the proxy help to fix this, with no luck. What can I do next?

Any website I try to visit using Firefox won't load, it just keeps saying that it is unable to connect. I tried other web browsers, and they work no problem. I tried following the proxy steps provided, but did not help.

Did you check your security software (firewall)?
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.
See [[Server not found]] and [[Firewalls]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firewalls
If you use a Firefox 4 beta release then you should create a new profile exclusively for the 4.0 beta version and create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch that profile.

Photoshop CS6 taking a minute to load (Yosemite)

Hi There,
Recently Photoshop started taking over a minute to load - I figured the normal things might be a problem - Brushes / Plugins / Actions etc.
So I removed everything, reinstalled PS and started adding back my brushes etc - and the load times decreased. Happy Days.
Except that it only lasted 3 days before launching slowly again.
A minute doesn't seem like much but it's interminable when you want to do a quick edit.
This time I did a little more research and checked the amt3.log - and found a minute's gap between these lines:

Back up all data if you haven’t already done so. Before proceeding, you must be sure you can restore your system to the state it’s in now. If you skip this step, no one but you will be responsible for the consequences.
Quit Safari if it’s running.
Select /Applications/Safari in the Finder and open the Info window. There’s a checkbox in that window labeled “Open in 32-bit mode.” If that box is checked, uncheck it. Close the window.
Hold down the option key and select Go > Library from the Finder menu bar (Lion) or open the Library subfolder of your home folder (pre-Lion). Delete the following items from the Library folder (some may not exist):
Caches/com.apple.Safari
Caches/Metadata/Safari
Saved Application State/com.apple.Safari.savedState
Leave the Finder window open. Try Safari again. If it still doesn’t work right, quit, go back to the Finder, and move the following file to the Desktop:
Safari/Bookmarks.plist
Then delete the following items (some may not exist):
Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies
Cookies/Cookies.plist
Preferences/com.apple.Safari.LSSharedFileList.plist
Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
Preferences/com.apple.Safari.RSS.plist
PubSub/Database
Safari
Try again. This time Safari should perform normally, but your settings will be lost. Select File > Import Bookmarks from the Safari menu bar. Import from the bookmarks file you moved to the Desktop. Recreate the rest of your Safari settings. You can then delete the old bookmarks file.

Web browsers not loading webpages

Overnight, a couple of days ago, my web browsers (Safari and Chrome) both stopped loading webpages. When I click on a link, I get a blank page. But when I am logged as a guest or browse through Vmware's windows I can still browse normally. Thanks for helping to fix this.

Thank you Carolyn,
I've got Sophos installed from long time ago. That's the only antivirus that is installed.
Checking in firewall settings didn't help I think, cause even after desactivating the firewall temporaly didn't fix the issue in both web browsers.
This issue is not discussed in Mac malware guide.
Another detail, is that some web content will load like this discussion group or google search. But If I click on any item from google search, the page won't load.

Bootcamp windows7 freezing on start up and taking around 40 minutes to load. Mac mountain lion also taking around 5 minutes to load on start up

I would like to have your kind support..Bootcamp windows7 freezing on start up and taking around 40 minutes to load. Mac mountain lion also taking around 5 minutes to load on start up.

My first step would be to get rid of "Norton protection". Boot from your OS 10.6 disc, navigate through your hard drivve and trash anything that is Norton. Empty the trash.
Next, run Disk Utility and ask it to repair the hard drive.

Now this is the part I don't get. The book tells me to go to http://localhost:8080/ch1/Serv1 even though there are no files/folders that have the name Serv1.
Do you understand what the <servlet-mapping> declaration in the web.xml means? It is roughly just saying the appserver that it should port all requests on /Serv1 to the mentioned servlet.
a couple others like/ch1/WEB-INF/classes/Ch1Servlet.class and /ch1/WEB-INF/web.xml. The WEB-INF folder is not public accessible, so forget about that part.
"Resource not found" simply means that either the URL is wrong (case counts!) or that the resource is actually not there. I.e. not compiled, not deployed, not loaded, etcetera. Reading the appserver's startup logs might also help.

Photoshop elements 10 taking 3 minutes to load

I am using PSE 10 on Windows 7 and Windows XP computers in a networked environment (Windows Server). Until recently the software loaded relatively quickly. Then all of a sudden it took 3 minutes to load.
The software loading sequence is like this:
Welcome to PSE 10 screen; Click Edit; Then Photoshop software appears to load; Click file to do something and an egg timer appears and it takes three minutes before the software has loaded. Once the PSE10 software has loaded it works fine.
Can you help?

Yes, the problem is the welcome screen. it's looking for photoshop.com and that doesn't exist anymore so it hangs up searching for it. Just don't use it. Go into the prorgram files and find the actual .exe file(s) for the editor and/or organizer, make desktop shortcuts for either or both and start PSE that way from now on.

IPhoto '08 takes 1 1/2 minutes to load.

When I open iPhoto it takes one and a half minutes to load. Then a box pops up asking me if I want more information about iLife '09. I clicked on the box " to not ask me again". iphoto still is taking over a minute to open. Any suggestions?

Welcome to the Apple user to user discussion forums
in the iPhoto preferences turn off sharing and set look for new photos on the web to manually - quit in event view so iPhoto will open in event view each time
Those should help

Quick Time Hijacks Windows File Associations Only From Web Browsers

It took me 6 hours this morning to conclusively prove that Quick Time (latest version) isn’t playing well with web browsers on my Windows XP Pro (SP3) machine (nothing new here I guess).
I develop web sites which get their content from local hard or DVD/CD drives (as opposed to from the internet). All my Windows file associations for audio/video file types point to Windows Media Player (WMP) so that when one of my web pages looks for a file type of say .mpg or .mp3, WMP is opened and the file is played. Pretty straight forward and has worked fine for years.
Some time in the last few months (and I now strongly suspect after a Quick Time update) my browsers (all of them….. IE, Firefox, and Chrome) started opening Quick Time instead of WMP when my HTML goes to open any media file type. I’ve checked my Windows file associations which all still point to WMP. I also note that when I open one of my media files from a file utility such as Windows Explorer or my aftermarket file utility (as opposed to from a browser), they correctly open in WMP. So…….. its only from browsers that QT hijacks my intended media player.
In Internet Explorer I’ve gone to “Manage Add-Ons” and “disabled” Quick Time. This in fact causes QT not to be opened but instead a blank web page appears containing only the browser’s little error box with a big red X in it which usually means a picture file is missing…… WMP is not launched even though it is enabled in Manage Add-Ons and QT is disabled.
The only way I’ve found to fix this problem is to uninstall Quick Time in which case everything works fine. (My objection to Quick Time as my default media player is that even the latest version doesn’t reliably play video created for Windows file types.)
Can anyone tell me how to make Quick Time co-exist on my computer without hijacking my attempts to get at WMP from browsers?
The only reason Quick Time has existed on my computer in recent years is so I have access to iTunes. I’ve uninstalled both Quick Time and iTunes till I find a solution to this problem which means iTunes isn’t selling me anything in the mean time.

I'm having the same issue that Quicktime hijacks file associations.
I recently reinstalled my copy of Windows 7 64-bit and have installed basically hardly anything on it. I have however installed iTunes (+Quicktime) for my iPhone and Winamp (and not even loaded Windows Media Player).
Basically when I uninstall Quicktime, I can just type an url in the IE8 address bar with the .mp3 extension and download and save the file there and then. Only after installing Quicktime the browser will open the .mp3 in the window and play it embedded with the Quicktime player.
This is something I do NOT want, and I am really ****** off that Quicktime just takes over this feature without asking me first!!
That being besides the point really because I also cannot find the option in Quicktime's settings to undo this!!
When I go to Quicktime's settings -> Browser -> MIME types
It just shows that .mp3 is linked to Winamp (like I want it to be), but it still opens as a Quicktime Control Object.
Reinstalling IE8, resetting its settings, disabling the iTunes & Quicktime addons, even removing the Quicktime Control Object class from the registry... Nothing worked!

Here you can find an mp3 file to use for testing.
