Computer can't keep up with my typing, very slow to respond

I've been noticing lately that I the computer has been dropping characters as I type. In other words, the words do not appear on the monitor as fast as I can type the characters and I'm certainly no speed typist. Sometimes, the cursor just stops moving even though I'm still typing and then when it starts moving again, it's missed several letters that I've typed. Or, I'll press a few keys and nothing shows up for a few seconds and then the last few keypresses pop up. I thought it was related to upgrading to 10.4.5, but I returned to using the back-up disk with 10.4.4 and it's still happening. Only other new item is a DSL modem, but don't know how that would slow down the whole system. Would appreciate troubleshooting suggestions on how to narrow down the cause!

Have you installed any unusual fonts? Have you
verified your fonts with FontBook (File > Validate
Font)? I guess those things could slow down your
typing.
I haven't installed any fonts, unusual or otherwise, since this problem began.
Have you checked in the Activity Monitor for
processes that take up a lot of processor power?
I did check in the Activity Monitor for processor hogs. After checking a link "Mac OS X: What are all those processes" I quit two processes that took up a lot of power and that seems to have helped quite a bit. I just don't know what those processes where, what started them, or how to keep them from coming back.

  • I just instaled firefox 4 on my Acer netbook with Windows Vista Basic. Now the typing is very slow, ie. cannot keep up with my typing speed, which is not fast. Any ideas?

    I have an Acer netbook, with 2GB ram and Vista Basic. I installed firefox 4 and now the machine cannot keep up with my typing. The letters are delayed appearing on the screen in all apps, but especially in email, and words just get lost if I type too fast, and I am not a fast typist. Should I remove firefox 4?

    Have you tried updating your software? The issue with the keys will either be a software issue or an issue with your hardware, if you're on the newest software try re-installing it. It's very simple to do using the desktop software, if this does not work it seems to be a hardware issue, meaning repair or replacement is needed.
    Also, updating/re-installing your software should also resolve any slow/freezing issues and hopefully stop your dialling problem.
    Hope this helps

  • Typing on the iPad 2 very slow to respond with iOS 7

    Why is typing on the iPad 2 very slow to respond with iOS 7?

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.

  • Blazeds client can't keep up with realtime updates = discard?

    Hi all,
    I'm doing an application that provides realtime data to users via blazeds, the flex client uses a long pooling mechanism to get stream of data from the server. The question that my team has is, if multiple clients connected to a topic and one of the clients couldn't keep up with the rate of data produced, will the message be kept in blazeds until that client can retrieve it? If it is, then this will create a bottle neck for that particular client and will burden the server as more and more messages have to be kept in the server. Is there anyway to set an expiry time on a message and discard those messages?
    Thanks in advance.

    I am also facing tghe same problem today. I cannot believe I
    was unable to find a single help on this. i've been trying many of
    the options but things are getting worse and worse. Now I can't
    publish from Dreamweaver and Contribute also!! Why Adobe doesn't
    support the ones who upgrade their software?

    vacation so I made a couple of minor updates using Dreamweaver. Now
    she's back, and is no longer able to publish. I'm not sure it's
    related. The error message is:
    "Contribute encountered a network or file system error.
    Please try the operation again, and contact the administrator if
    the error continues to occur."
    The problem started yesterday, but briefly corrected itself.
    Now she can't publish at all. I have asked her to go step-by-step
    through the process of editing files and I can see the following
    activity on the server:
    -- She opens the file (index.html) and the following file
    appears on the server: index.html.LCK
    -- She hits "publish" and the following file appears on the
    server: index.html.new
    -- Then the error message appears for her.
    When she closes the page, the index.html.LCK page disappears,
    but the index.html.new sticks around.
    Interestingly, the .new file is 0k.
    We turned on I/O logging, but all it does is confirm that the
    PUT isn't happening. However, there are lots of complaints about
    missing files on the local drive. They run Active Directory on
    their network, and I'm curious if there could be some kind of
    mapping problem with their user settings directories, and
    Contribute is getting hung up when it tries to PUT the changes.
    I'd appreciate any help troubleshooting this issue or any
    tips before I call Adobe. :)
    Thanks!

    I still have lots of memory.
    But this message is showing when i go to applications- utilities and console...

    does anyone know what this means and how can I fix it?
    It seems to freeze more when I use the finger pad to move the mouse?
    Its becoming very annoying especially when I'm trying to watch a programme on bbc iplayer.
    Many Thanks

    Your hard disk is failing and requires replacement. Replacement is not terribly expensive and can be performed by someone sufficiently adept with computer repair. If that's not you, an Apple Store can perform the replacement.
    Back up your data ASAP.

  • Memory full with nothing running, very slow

    Our macbook suddenly started running very slow and having programs freeze a lot after a partial migration form a power PC G5.  In short it happens in two different accounts.  Activity monitor shows the cpu is not doing much (idle > 70%) but the memory is very full even when only activity monitor has launched.
    Is it right for activity monitor to be showing almost all of the 1 GB used (0.78GB) immediately after a restart with only activity monitor running (see image).  I don't know what most of these things are.  CPU usages was very low.  launch program takes a long time, switching between programs, pretty much anything between programs, saving, or launching.  Also programs (at least firefox and power point which I use alot) freeze frquently.  (What I have tried is listed below).  Yes I have ordered more memory but that doesn't address the issue that this was working fine before.  Once  much is launched the memory use is essentially 100%
    The cause:  macbook had been working fine with several user accouts and normal operation.  We had used it since "mid 2007".  Our old G5 is dying (video card I believe).  So I did a partial migration using the firewire migrate in the OS.  I migrated my account and then separately migrated some of the applicaitons.  I also started using Outlook and set up all my email accounts in it.  What should the activity look like?

    Tried:  repair disk - no problems  The HD was replaced 12/12/2008,  repaired disk permisions
    reinstall snow_leapard from original disk 10.6.3 - same symptoms,  updated through software update to 10.6.8  - no change.
    not much on login launch.  other account has less and also slow.

    Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
    For disk repairs use Disk Utility.  For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior;  DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible. TechTool Pro provides additional repair options including file repair and recovery, system diagnostics, and disk defragmentation.  TechTool Pro 4.5.1 or higher are Intel Mac compatible;  Drive Genius is similar to TechTool Pro in terms of the various repair services provided.  Versions 1.5.1 or later are Intel Mac compatible.
    OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep.  Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts had been significantly reduced in Tiger and Leopard.  These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or Lion and should not be installed.
    OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems.
    I would also recommend downloading the shareware utility TinkerTool System that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc.  Other utilities are also available such as Onyx, Lion Cache Cleaner, CockTail, for example.
    For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack.  If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the commandline.  Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. There is no confirmation that this version also works with Lion.
    When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
    Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
    Backuplist
    Carbon Copy Cloner
    Data Backup
    Deja Vu
    iBackup
    JaBack
    Silver Keeper
    MimMac
    Retrospect
    Super Flexible File Synchronizer
    SuperDuper!
    Synchronize Pro! X
    SyncTwoFolders

    Synk Standard

  • CTAS with BLOB column very slow

    Hi,
    I am creating a new table from backup table having BLOB type of data.
    Table size for backup table is approx 250G (along with lob segment) and I am creating new table with predicate selectivity of 110 GB.

    Even after using parallel degree of 16 for CTAS, peformance is very very slow.
    Can anyone tell what's the reason for this behavior..

  • EA4500 - can only access youtube, google at a very slow speed, can not access anyother website

    Got a new EA4500 for X'mas
    After setting up the new router I could only access youtube and google at a very slow speed, however I can not access anyother website - facebook, yahoo and etc...
    it would ping yahoo and google no problem
    friend told me to do a tracert some ip address and his conclusion was the router is fully functional
    ISP uses PPPoE, Im sure that the username and password are correct. 
    upgraded to the latest firmware manually, and holy hell accessing the router with no internet access is a pain in the **bleep**! 
    Please help and Merry X'mas

    IP Address behind WRT54G is 192.168.1.103
    behind modem is 202.151.XX.XX
    It might be a DNS problem. Release & renew ip on the status page of your router. Just make sure you are already using the latest Linksys smart wifi firmware, reset the router & reconfigure. You can download the firmware here http://homesupport.cisco.com/en-us/support/routers/EA4500.

  • Rendering and working with AE is very slow.

    Hey guys,
    I'm running on Windows XP Pro, Intel Core 2 Quad CPU, Q6600 @ 2.40Ghz, Clockspeed; 2,40Ghz, 3GB RAM. Whenever I'm working in AE it's very slow to use in full resolution. When I lower the resolution I still have to wait for the preview screen to 'load'. This is very annoying in a work situation. Am I doing something wrong? My pc is very fast with other 'heavy'programs.

    AE will auto-disable MP if it does not detect enough RAM. You can still toggle it, but AE won't use it in any case. You could only change that by flipping some switches in your BIOS (if it supports this) that will make your 4 cores appear as only 2 cores or one core even, but this has some other side effects like possibly requiring a full re-install of your entire system...
    The disk cache should be located on the fastest disk in your system. Doesn't matter which one, as long as it has enough space and is permanently available. Even a network drive or external disk would work. The only requirement is to create a dedicated directory for it. you can call it "Mom" or "Popsi" - doesn't matter. Calling it "AE Cache" would be smarter, though. ;-)
    As for the rest: Don't expect miracles. Processing an x number of pixels can take its time, especially with some effects and in 32bpc mode.
    Also be aware that, while AE will handle it, some compressed formats do not lend themselves for working interactively. AE needs to conform them and it will take time to look up the correct time index. This is further complicated if you have lots of clips or rather long clips. You can improve these behaviors sometimes by capturing to different CoDecs or converting the footage.
    Part of the problems also may come from the graphics card. Even without OpenGL, AE will use your hardware to decode certain formats if possible and also for accelerated drawing. If your graphics are not up to snuff, have a bad driver or simply are configured poorly, they may have the opposite effect and instead of accelerating your workflow slow it down...
    Lastly, make sure your system is in good shape. Work off the fastest disks, clean them regularly of temporary files, defragment them and make sure their RAID/ SATA drivers and configuration are flawless.

  • Won't update to 7.4.1, can't access settings and TC is very slow

    I started Airport Utility to make some changes to my settings. It claimed to have an update. I selected update but alas, it just endlessly says "Searching for latest firmware version" after I enter my password. I quit Airport Utility to make the changes I had originally planned on but now it get's no further than "reading configuration".
    Also, I stream a lot of data from a connected disk to my computers. It's horribly slow normally, but now it just won't work.

    Well, first off, you are running a very ancient version of Mac OS, you should update to at least 10.5, preferably 10.6 if your computer can support it. This shouldn't cost you all that much money. It will probably at most cost you about $40 to fully update your computer (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4517588?tstart=0). the benefits of upgrading are numerous, but mainly will provide you increased security, performance and stability. Right now your computer is not safe to use online.
    After you update, update Firefox [[Update Firefox to the latest version]] and your plugins (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/)
    Note, this won't work until you update Mac OS X

  • Applet with JDBC runs very slow

    I have recently created an applet which I am using to interface with a MS SQL Server 2000 database using JDBC. The server is running W2K Server, and a Tomcat web server.
    There are some performance problems with this application. The volume of data being demanded by the database is very low, yet it runs very slow. More specifically, however, the application runs at a very fast pace for several seconds, then "stalls" for 10 -15 seconds.
    The stalling of the application does not take place at the same place in the code all the time; rather it seems to be completely independent of what I am doing. Sometimes a particular operation takes 20 seconds to complete, but the next day the same thing only takes 20msec.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    sounds like network usage issues
    hard to tell with no code and no idea how you're configured
