Backup 3.2 very slow to upload

I have been using Backup for many years without any problem. Lately it takes many hours to upload to my iDisk. It is just an incremental backup, not a new one.

Hi again,
Very Important, how much Free Space is on your Hard Drive first of all? Click on the Macintosh HD on the Desktop, then do a Get Info on it.

Ipad 2 becomes very slow after uploading

Hello,
I uploaded 4000 books and 2000 mp3 to my ipad2.
After this loading ibook is very slow and I don't see the covers comming up.
What is wrong ? What is there to change to make it work quicker?
Thanx from Alkmaar Holland

Apple wants you to upgrade your hardware. My iPad3 is doing the same thing. Planned obsolescence, since iPad sales are down and because a well maintained iPad will last seven years. The product is just too well built, so let's artistically choke out the old machines with a new IOS update.

Azure Backup performance is very slow.

I am trying to replace an vendor solution with Azure Backup but the performance is so slow, I cant get back to complete. I believe we have plenty of bandwidth to do the backup and we are not going thru a proxy. For example, I had a backup run for 24
hours, and the got loss the 1GB backed up and had a message about obengine and port 6049.
Any help appreciated.

Hi,
Thanks for posting here!
It seems like you are pulling data over an Internet connection, versus accessing the data locally.
In addition Azure is a service-based platform of shared resources, and this means that two types of latencies or interruptions regularly occur.
The first is the time taken to make a request and receive a response over the internet. Since those requests and responses can travel through any number of routers before they return to the client, timeouts and disconnections are more frequent than in local,
fixed networks.
The second is the time it takes for a shared-resource system like Azure to create backup versions of data for durability and to replace and reroute requests to any removed instances. These latencies and failures are important to understand how to compensate
to achieve any performance requirements in the application. Load testing at a real-world level will give you more information about the latencies that you see.

Is anyone experiencing very slow media upload times? Its is the same with pictures but SFTP is OK

I have spoken to BC but they say its a local network issue but my network checks out OK

" If you leave this area during the hours you are experiencing slow speeds do speeds increase?"
I am not sure how to answer this question, because it is vague. What do you mean by "leave this area"? Move to a different room in my house? (answer: makes no difference) Drive to a different neighborhood/zipcode? (answer: I have not tried this during evening hours, but daytime speeds, particularly download speeds, from my work address are generally better than I get at home; see below)
"Have you ever had a ticket filed in regards to this service issue? Do you notice if you reset network settings on the devices do speeds increase at all?"
I did call VZW customer support to attempt to address. First line of support made your suggestion of resetting the network settings. Did NOT help at all. The agent then transferred me to the second line of support, where I remained on hold for so long that I hung up.
Some more data for you from the Ookla app. Numbers a from my iPad; iPhone gives comparable data at same times:

Time Machine backups have become very slow

My time machine backups to a USB attached external drive (dedicated to backups) have recently slowed horribly. They are taking timeframes like 30 minutes to even an hour even when nothing has changed on my system. They didn’t do that previously (usually just a couple of minutes for same).
Console ouput below. I see MDS errors. What are those? Are they a concern?
I have run Disk Utility on both my hard drive and the time machine drive and they look okay.

Very Slow Download/Upload Speed

I have the Turbo service (5MBps - 7.1MBps). I check speedtest and 192.168.1.1 and they tell me : Speed (Down/Up): 5883 Kbits/sec by 863 Kbits/sec, which is fine with me. The problem is though, my download speeds are never above 600 Kbits/sec. I plugged my phone line directly into my Verizon box outside and get the same speed. What could be the problem?
Some Info :
I tested this on three computures (Two with Windows 7 and one with Vista). I am also using a Westell 6100 modem.

Who/what told you that?
For example, the router at 192.168.1.1

#3 Which Westell 6100 firmware are you on? For example, The white and blue OR the red and black.
#4 Is wireless in this modem combo (Westell 6100), on?
#5 If wireless in this modem combo is on, what level of wireless security is the router set to? For example, WEP OR WPA.
#6 The Default Gateway on all three computers is 192.168.1.1?
To check this on Windows XP..
a) Go to Start -> Run.
b) Type in cmd and press enter.
c) In the new window, called the command prompt, type in ipconfig /all and press enter.
This is, as noted at http://oit.ncsu.edu/resnet/ipconfig
For Windows Vista OR Windows 7, I believe like the way at http://oit.ncsu.edu/resnet/vista

IPad (and iPhone 4) upload speed on wi-fi very slow - any thoughts?

Both my "i devices" - an iPad and iPhone 4 are very slow for upload speeds on wi-fi. For example, here are the results of using speedtest.net on my iMac 21.5", iPhone 4 and iPad just now:
iMac: download 38.39 Mbps, upload 19.22 Mbps (so the wi-fi network itself has good upload speeds)
iPhone 4: download 21.17 Mbps, upload 0.39 Mbps (why so slow?!)
iPad: download 23.66 Mbps, upload 0.71 Mbps (why so slow?!)
The wireless router is an Airport Extreme updated to the latest firmware.
I've seen screenshots of other people's iPad and iPhone speedtest.net tests where the upload speed over wi-fi doesn't suffer compare to download like mine does, by a factor of 54!
I've seen postings here and there by people with similar problems. Are there any solutions? Are my iPad and iPhone 4 bad? Are they incompatible with my Airport Extreme? Are there "settings" somewhere that can help with the problem?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi, Carolyn.
Perhaps so. Maybe there are certain kinds of connections which are better suited for iPads and iPhones than others. But the download speed on neither device seem to have problems. It's just the upload speed.
I did try several channels yesterday - 6 through 13 - but it didn't seem to make a difference.
Why would trashing my Mac preference files and restarting my Mac help anything? My Mac isn't having any problems.
Oh, by the by, on my iPhone at least I already tried resetting Network preferences. I even did a Reset > Erase All Content and Settings and re-installed my iPhone 4 from scratch. While still in a "vanilla state" before restoring from my backup, I tried testmyiphone.com via Safari and got similar results - very poor upload.
The 3G connection also fluctuates between "so so" (1-2 Mbps down, 0.8 Mbps up) and really horrible (0.2 Mbps down and 0.05 Mbps up).
I did just try your suggested "reset networks" on my iPad. This time I got a download of 13.26 Mbps and upload of 2.2 Mbps on the first test. On the 2nd test I got about the same download, but an upload speed of just 0.63 Mbps.
So something's still wrong.

Backup to the remote stages is very slow

Hello!
I am facing with the following problem for DB Backup to the remote stage.
If I plan the ALL ONLINE-Backup, then the backup is takes very slow, backups two or more files and aborts.
I have checked the appropriate BTC WP and saw that the WP is holding/waitng.
The reason is RFC.
How can the problem be solved?
Thank you very much!
regards
Thom

Without logs of the backups we can just guess, what is wrong.
Post the log of a failed remote backup here and let´s see then.

Lightroom slow to upload raw files

Since i have upgraded to Snow Leopard, Lighrtoom is acting very slow in uploading photos (like hours). Once they are up, it will take a minute or two to switch over to the Develop module and be bale to work on them. Any ideas on how to fix? Is the issue SL or is it something else?

My own experience suggests it's not SL, but that's not a big help to you! How are you importing the files? Any changes in cables, cards?
I'd see if you can copy your files to the desktop in good speed, then run import.

Very Slow Windows Networking

My department is running OS X 10.4, and we're networked with a Windows server for storage and job backup. One of our main backup servers is very slow. Logging into the server can take up to 5-7 minutes, and for a period of 5-7 minutes after that the machine logging into the server will run very slow, even when not copying a file.
Now the backup server is quite large (almost a terrabyte), which is my belief why it runs so slowly. We have two other servers on the same network that behave fine.
Is there something on my end (OS X) that can speed up the problem, or is this a server issue? My boss is demanding answers and our Windows IT guy is placing the blame solely on our Macs (with no evidence of course). Help!

Google for "SMB performance". There are a bunch of discussions on macosxhints on how to tweak SMB performance on Max OS X. I have tried a few different ones, which all seem to help in some small way. YMMV.
Apple SMB is not known for its performance.

Verizon Cloud VERY slow uploads

Started using Verizon Cloud yesterday and found it to be VERY slow. It say it will take more than 2 days to back up my 14 GB of music. I've got it uploading using my Verizon DSL and it takes up most of my bandwidth in performing the upload. Using home computers to view the web or downloading emails becomes EXTREMELY slow.
In addition, the backup of my contacts seems to be a complete failure. It says it backed up only six of my contacts and then when I check to see which contacts it backed up, there is only one showing. It also changed that one contact. It is a complete failure in my opinion.
Is anybody else seeing these issues?
Verizon, are you aware of these problems?
For now I'm turning this useless service OFF!!!!

I have 32 GB of storage space with almost 6 GB free. I've deleted everything that I deemed unnecessary as you suggested and restarted the backup process. It still said it would take DAYS to backup my phone!!! I tried to reply to your suggestions while the backup was running and it took MINUTES to upload these pages on my laptop. I had to stop the backup process to be able to respond.
Just face it, Verizon Cloud is pretty much useless since it take so long to perform a reasonable backup. As others suggested there are other cloud services that are MUCH better.
BTW ... you never addressed Verizon Cloud changing my contacts and not completely backing them up. I'm not the first to see this behavior. Others have commented on this bug.
As of now, I'm really sorry I changed plans to get more space on the worthless Verizon Cloud!!!

Very Slow Internet Connection and Backups

I have had a Time Capsule for some time now (1st generation) and it has caused nothing but headaches. I have put up with it for some time but I have a very slow internet connection and cannot leave Time Machine on or it bogs down my machine, so I only backup periodically. Specifics are provided below.
I have a poor internet connection to begin with. When plugged in directly either to my modem or through Ethernet to the Time Capsule, I get download speeds of ~ 2.9 Mbits/sec download, 0.7 Mbits/sec upload. When connected over wireless, the speeds drop to about 0.6 Mbits/sec download, 0.6 Mbits/sec upload. I feel like I am working on dial-up. I have both a Mac and a PC, and speeds are the same on both, so it does not appear to be a computer issue. I have played with various settings in the Airport, including how connected (b-n or n only), DHCP settings, etc, but nothing makes a difference. Any suggestions?

Welcome to the discussion area, bigbrianb!
Have you downloaded a utility like iStumbler to get a look at the signal strength and noise on your wireless network?
iStumbler will display most of the other wireless networks around you, so you'll have an idea of the competition for unused channels. Ideally, you want your network to be on a channel that is at least 4-5 channels away from any other network to minimize the chances of wireless interference. Is that the case there?
Your signal strength should be 50% or greater and noise less than 10% for a good quality connection on your network. Is that the case there?
There are more things to test, but this will get things going.

4Th Generation Time Capsule Running Backup very Slow

I am having a problem with my 4th generation time capsule as it is running very slow , it shows that i need to backup 151 Gb data and for the last 2 days the device backup only 150 mb, pls advise what is the problem? setup of the wireless network seems fine to me without any problem
please help

When you use ethernet, make sure your wireless is turned off in the computer.
It can be worthwhile isolating the TC to the Computer so there is nothing else happening.
Also for Mavericks ensure you have ipv6 set correctly to link-local.
A 100GB backup certainly should not take 20hours..
Although the 2008 (gen1 TC is much slower than later versions).
A first backup of the computer must deal with loads and loads of little files, as a warning can go slow.
A different backup software will be just the same.. it is the speed over network and handling small files that is the issue. Once that first backup is done the later incrementals should not be a problem though.

The problem is with the new operating system and sending photo via email when used in my iPad. From photo I selected 3 photos to send via email. I choose the upload key and choose to send by email. Typing text on the email is very slow.

The problem is with the new operating system and sending photo via email when used in my iPad.
From photo I selected 3 photos to send via email. I choose the upload key and choose to send by email. Typing text on the email is very slow. This is solved by saving the email as a draft and opening the email again from mail.
Can you amend he system to allow emails to be sent from photo as previously.

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

VERY slow backup to external Hard Drive

I have an older external HD case (New Motion) with a Western Digital 120GB Hard Drive that I use for backup, firewire only.
I use this drive on my old slot loading iMac G3 (10.3.8) and it runs very fast, copying 16GB from the iMac to the backupin about 15 minutes.
When I connect the backup drive to my G5 iMac (10.4.2) it runs VERY slow at night, taking 6 hours to copy the same amout of information.
I notice that during the day it takes less time, but still about 1.5 hours. (The night/day differences are consistent).
Is this an issue with Tiger or a setting in Tiger or how Tiger talks to firewire, or an issues with the G5 iMac? (Both firewire ports work fine with my iPod updating music).

Hi robfromkinglake west,
Try and isolate the issue. Check if it's only with this drive.
Check the drive with Disk Utility

I've never seen a drive take 20 minutes to mount.
