Apple tv very slow to download, this has only just begun

we have been using the apple tv for quite a long time and recently we just updated it to the latest version of the software.
Since doing this the apple tv is very very slow to download anything. we are currently trying to watch a program and it suggests 1 hour 30 mins before we can do so. we used to be able to watch instantly!!!
any ideas how to fix?

Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Restart your router.
Reset the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings)
Restore the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Restore)

What does 'include render files' option mean for when I duplicate a project. I deselected it and the duplicated file is very slow so maybe this has affected it. It's a shame cause original project is deleted. Have I lost the rendered files? Thanks

Yes, if you duplicate without the render files and delete the original project you lose the render files. But render files get recreated - automatically if you have it set in the preferences (which is the default option). It just takes time.

Ipad doesn't recognise wireless keyboard apart from the function keys this has only just occurred . Previously no issue at all

Ipad 2 doesn't recognise wireless keyboard apart from the function keys this has only just occurred . Previously no issue at all.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

"Your email account" means to tap on the name of your email account. Whatever it is listed as in the settings.
In my mail settings, one of my email accounts is a Comcast account. I tap on the Comcast name and it brings up this window.
Then I tap on the arrow under the Outgoing mail server smtp setting to get to the next window.
In the resulting window, I then tap on the arrow next to the smtp server under the Primary Server setting.
That brings up this window in which I check to make sure that my user name and password have been entered correctly. If those items are missing, enter them in the appropriate fields and then tap done.

Why is my Apple tv (very) Slow at downloading from my iTunes account (homesharing)

Why is both my apple Tv's (very) slow at downloading (buffer) from my iTunes account on my hard drive (home sharing)

You didn't clarify where you were accessing the content from computers icon or one of the other icons (using the cloud)
It's a coincidence. Verify interference using istumbler and try Ethernet
If you're using the cloud there are other things to look at

Applemac OSX 10.7.5 How do I spot pop ups appearing every time I click the mouse on-line. this has only just started.have I clicked something wrong??

How can I stop pop ups apprering every time I use the mouse on-line. have I clicked on something wrongly??

You may have inadvertently installed adware. Eradicating it is simple and you don't have to download or install anything to fix it. For an explanation or how this may have occurred, how to avoid it in the future, and for one possible solution read How to install adware.
Blocking popup windows in Safari and ad blocker extensions can be useful, but they are often ineffective defenses for this particular threat.

TS3406 My IPhone4 will make calls - they can hear me bu I CANNOT HEAR THEM!! This has only just started happening, I have checked settings but all seems OK can anyone help please

MY IPHONE 4 which has been working perfectly well has developed a fault on calls.
It will make calls OK and they can hear me perfectly but I CANNOT HEAR THEM AT ALL.
I have checked all the settings and cannot see anything wrong, can anyone help please!!

Thanks for answering me. I tried what the help page said but still no luck. My son jut told me that his phone (same as mine) did the same thing and then resolved a little while later. I guess I might just have to wait and see.

When using the camera downloader in Adobe Bridge CS6 with Nikon D5200 we are unable to see previews of the photos and it is very slow to download. The issue occurs under a the users rights, but not under admin level. This is a new issue

Hi Jdentremont,
Lync client gets user photos by first querying the Address Book Web Query (ABWQ) service on the server, which is exposed through the Distribution List Expansion web service. The client receives
the image file and then copies it to the user's cache to avoid downloading the image each time it needs to be displayed. The attribute values returned from the query are also stored in the cached Address Book Service entry for the user. The Address Book Service
deletes all cached images every 24 hours, which means that it can take up to 24 hours for new user images to be updated in the cache on the server.
To troubleshoot your problem, please follow the steps below:
1. Navigate to
“X:\share\1-WebServices-1\ABfiles\000000000\000000000” folder. (ABS file share)
You should see some photo files in this folder as the following screenshot.
2. Delete all the files in this folder.
3. On test PC, delete local cache files.
%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync\[email protected]
4. Sign-in Lync with the test account.
5. Go back to the ABS file share, check if there is any Photo file in the folder.
Best regards,
Eric

I would instead say you have a problem since nearly all IPs work as advertised. IF you do have a bad phone, take it into an Apple store and get a replacement. Hope you didn't jailbreak your phone though as Apple probably will tell you, you broke it, you fix it.

Very slow video downloading from iTunes

I have a FIOS 75Mbit connection (and get can 75Mbit on my N-router and Macbook Pro's WIFI). But my new 1080p Apple TV is another matter. Two minute trailers take longer than 2 minutes to download. Half hour HD TV shows can take 90 minutes to download! And if I try to watch a movie I rented, Apple TV tells me it'll be ready to watch in "about 5 hours".
So my immediate reaction is ***. Any ideas why my wireless performance is so great with my MBP and so terrible with my AppleTV (just 10 feet away)

I stumbled across this thread looking for help with the same issue...slow to very slow movie downloads from iTunes.
Changing the DNS, both on my iMac as well as my Airport Extreme router helped.
I'm on Comcast and generally get around 33Mbps downloads via speedtest.net. Based on several Namebench tests Google's Public DNS (8.8.8.8) has always been on top and I've always configured my router and Macs using the top 3 Namebench recommendations with Google at #1 position. However while downloading movies from iTunes Activity Monitor showed very sharp "Data received/sec" rises and falls...anywhere from 4.40MB/sec to 100KB/sec or sometimes zero. Most of the time it would start off well, but trail off to very poor and sporatic speeds after about 30 seconds.
Per finaleMile's and other's recommendations elsewhere I removed Google Public DNS from the settings on my router and iMac and things improved with respect to stability. Although the "top speed" of about 4.40Mbps didn't improve, downloads did smooth out and remain between about 2.30Mbps to 4.10Mbps during the entire download. Not speedy but a marked improvement in stability and overall download time.
Thanks for the tip!
BTW, I've found that during regular web surfing, using Google's Public DNS is faster so I re-add it after downloading movies from iTunes. It's a bit of a PIA, but worth it. Wish there were a better option though.
FWIW I tend to download rented and purchased movies to iTunes on my iMac and then play them back via my Apple TV3 rather than "stream" them directly from iTunes. That way if there are external network problems they won't have a negative impact on our viewing experience.

My MacBook pro continues to be very slow after downloading Yosemite. It keeps referring to MacBook Pro (2). It's like there are two version running side by side. Any ideas?

It is now running Yosemite 10.10.1. I seem to have plenty of memory but the machine still runs slower than before installing Yosemite. Excel has a very noticeable lag when opening and loading files.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I ran through the various steps as suggested including resetting the SMC.
I would say that there was about a 10% improvement. Although one of the icons still bounced for the count of 40
I'm still wondering why from the About this Mac, then System Report. it refers to my name MacBook Pro (2).
All the various problems seem to have started with the upgrade to Yosemite.

Safari is now VERY slow after downloading Lion

My Safari (which is the latest version) is now VERY slow after downloading Lion. It takes forever for anything to load, and some pages don't load at all anymore. Any way to fix this? It is very frustrating!

I've just made a change to try to keep the wifi from crashing and it also seems to give me a speed boost online.
Go into your System Preferences, choose Network, and then in that dialog box choose "Advanced..."
Once there, select the DNS tab.
Click the plus sign and add the following to your list of DNS servers:
8.8.8.8
It's Google's public DNS and seems to have fixed both the dropping and speed issues.

Apple TV 3 slow to download from iCloud and connected computer.

Apple TV 3 slow to download from iCloud and connected computer. Wired via ethernet with very fast upload and download speeds. Can anyone help please? Accessing YouTube is even incredibly slow. Have reset, no joy. Have changed DNS to Google DNS, no joy.

Resolved! Disabled BT Home Hub as wireless. Removed Devolo wireless plugs from house. Removed TP link powerline adapters (Apple TV was connected to ethernet). Set Time Capsule as the only wireless point in the house. Interestingly, if you have more than 1 access point in the house, BT Home Hub can get a little confused - so removing its wireless capability via the admin function via advanced settings basically set Time Capsule as only access point in the house). Changed DNS on Windows 7 machine to Open DNS.....(FYI, outside of US & Canada, Google DNS is pretty much useless and won't speed up your download speeds on Apple TV). Restored Apple TV to factory settings and started again. Downloads from iCloud almost instant; downloads from shared computer almost instant; streaming from YouTube and Netflix almost instant. Happy days....

Very slow music download with iTunes match on iOS devices

For some time now I experience very slow performance downloading music with iTunes match on my iOS devices.
Downloading music takes ages now. Not so long ago download music with iTunes match was as fast as buying music from the iTunes Store.
I tried to restore my iPhone but nothing changed.
The download itself is quite fast but after that the blue progress bar is full and the statut is "en cours" (french) something like busy/ongoing in english . The other tracks have a status wating;
Any idea how to solve the issue?
Thanks

Same here. It seems to be better when the device has been set up from scratch. A delete and restore does not the trick. So I learned to live with it
