Why the download from Applestore is so slow?
When I download some applications for Applestore, It is always slower than I can bare. How can I make it faster?
This is really dependent on the strength of your connection to either wifi or 3G. If you have a weak connection, it will take a long time to download. For example, I was at Starbucks and decided to download an app. It took an incredibly long time to download. At home, where I have a very strong wifi signal, apps download very quickly.

Why does downloading from iCloud take so long now?
I've been using Match since it was released. I'm used to the download times required for hour-length albums, playlists, and hi-def TV programs.
My memory is that a year ago, downloading an hour-long music album that was bought on iTunes in iTunes Plus format (256Kbs) took abouit 5-10 mins. So why does it now take ONE HOUR?!?
Likewise, my memory is that a year ago, downloading an hour-long hi-def TV episode that was bought on iTunes took abouit 20-30 mins. So why does it now take TWO HOURS?!?
My infrastructure is the same: broadband connection with over 100Mbps down, iPhone 4s, iPad 3.
WHY has downloading from Match gotten SO SLOW on iOS devices? On my new iMac it is blazing fast. And a year ago, it was rather quick (as detailed above).
Anyway who has info on this, would greatly appreciate seeing it posted. Thanks.prik67 wrote:
i formatted the Hard Drive from Disk Utility in order to Re-install OSX Lion...The download time first shown was like 53 hours and then after like 10 minutes it went down to 10 hours...i am pretty sure thst the internet connection i have is very fast, so why does downloading OSX Lion take so long?
It's about 4GB, from memory, and the download speed can be affected from things like site traffic or variations in speed from your own ISP. But in general, it IS a very large download. Also never put your trust in a computer telling you how much time is left to download. As you can see, it recalculates everything more often and more quickly than the Tax Department! (Oh, and don't watch it. You know the old saying)

Why the transmition to the tv from my iPad is slow cutting off ... Is there a way to improve connectivity ?
Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment. -
Why the purchase from my husband's account charge to my account?
Why the purchase from my husband's account charged to my credit card?. The register with his own ID and also have provide the payment information.
You can't currently move or transfer ibooks (or any other iTunes downloads) from one account to another account, so those books will remain tied to his account - but as long as his account is authorised on the computer's iTunes that you sync the iPad to (I only have one account so I can't check) then you should be able to continue to have them in the iBooks app on your iPad

Is the other way to get the downloads from the support section
Is there any other way to get the downloads from the support section?
Because the download speed is very slow. For example in need the new version from the Value Added Package, and its 116 MB big. A normal download time would be about 5 - 10 minutes. But when i download it from Toshiba I need 2 - 6 hours. Not good for a company that makes high performance computers and notebooks.
And the worst thing is that the connection is reseted after some hours...so I'll never get the update.
Does anyone know help?

ThomasHello Thmas
I can understand you very well because few days ago i have installed Vista Ultimate on my brand new Satellite A200. Unfortunately I am afraid there is no much to do. You know very well that since Vista OS is on the market, thousands of people want to downgrade OS to WXP or update to Vista ultimate.
I am really not wondering that download is so slow. I have noticed that download speed is much better early morning and maybe you should download all stuff you need at this time. Save all this stuff for further handling.
Bye and good luck -
Resuming Download of Yosemite Restarted the Download from beginning
I was in the process of downloading Yosemite with my slow internet connection, and got through half way. I then paused the download in the Mac App store, and shut down my computer, and power cycled the router. When I turned my rMBP back on, I selected "Resume" from the Mac App store, but instead of resuming the download from the halfway point, it started from the very beginning!
Is there anyway to revive the download that made it half way? I'm so annoyed!Try starting your update from here.

This will take you to the OS X 10.10.2 combo pack, which is the current release of Yosemite. -
Why the download page for any site cannot to appear????it appear black page only?????
why the download page using safari cannot to open???it just appear black page only...for example, i wanna to download any product (dmg) but i couldn't.. why????????
If the patch level of the browser is not exposed to the website, the website should probably not claim that I'm running the latest version, since it cannot know for sure. Often patch level updates are security updates and those are the most critical ones (I can skip new features for ages, no problem, but a big security hole needs to be fixed ASAP). I'm tech-savvy enough to click on "Download a fresh copy", because I know what I'm doing and I know the page is wrong, but don't expect my mother to that ("But the page said, I am already running the latest version...").
The auto updater doesn't work because all apps I install on my Mac have root:wheel ownership (just like when installing apps from the Ma AppStore or those that ship as part of the system) and nobody but root:wheel has write permissions to the app bundle. This is actually standard for programs on any Linux system I know, why should I go with less security on my Mac?
This is no problem for AppStore apps (Apple updates those with a daemon running with root privileges) and this is also no problem for apps updating with Sparkle (after downloading and verifying the update, they will prompt for an admin password and then perform the actually file changes with root privileges), but Fx has no such mechanism. It will just try to update and fail because of insufficient privileges.

I'm trying to install Windows 8 via Boot Camp, but the download from Microsoft is a .exe file so when I go to create the bootable USB drive, it fails. I've read some of the other threads about this topic, but I want to know if there is any way to convert to .iso without having to find someone's Windows computer to borrow. Can anyone help?
No. You would require a PC in order to run the executable which is an installer, not a disc image or an archive.

Just got an iPad mini 3 and have not reset my iPad mini 3; is that why the photos from iCloud backup are not showing up in the new iPad?
Sorry, don't know what you are asking. You have an old iPad Mini 3 and a new iPad Mini 3? How did you set up the new iPad? Did you restore it from a backup of the old iPad? What photos are you not seeing?

48 Hours ago I started to upgrade to Mountain Lion on a now 10 day old IMac - 30 minutes ago I got the email with the content code and redeem code for the download from the app store - it said download was happening, but nothing happened for 30 min - HOW DO I (or you) FIX IT!?
This is a User's Forum, yelling at us won't help. You have 90 days of customer support via telephone. Use them as they can interact with their system and hopefully get you back on track. Otherwise take it to them at the Genius Bar and have them make it good.

I have Creative Cloud and just downloaded Ae... but it is version CS6... not CC2014.1 . Any idea why the download is for an older version?
If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
* Firefox 7.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

where do I get the download from iTunes button art, rather than just stealing from someones site
Interesting. It looks to be available from the iTunes Affiliates resources for everyone:
Affiliate Logo Guidelines and Art
... although it also says you ought to be an affiliate to actually use it.
It might be worth checking in with Apple Legal to see what the requirements are for using it, first. Here's contacts:
