Computer games run and load very slowly
Even though the requirements for my son's computer games are met (we have enough ram ,space etc) his games run very slowly and when loading from one section of the game to another it is slow too. What could be wrong?
As stated above the more RAM the better, I dont know the minimum requirements for the game but seeing as it is a preschool game and nothing TOO demanding i would think it should run ok; but personally i would upgrade to at least 256mb of ram. I think that would be a pretty good middle ground for you since you are running OS 9, and in my area PC100 ram is quite expensive in large module sizes (512mb approximately running $80-$100) you could buy another 128 module or one 256 module to run with your current 128. But make sure you investigate all possibilities before spending money on any upgrades. I would check to see if there are any game options you could change to make the game run/load a bit faster. I hope this is somewhat helpful.

Movies on itunes will not load or load very slowly and freeze on my apple tv.
Movies on itunes will not load or load very slowly and freeze on my apple tv. both the computer and apple tv are wired connections on my home network. Checked the network speed and it is between 0 and 1 ms response. This problem just started last week. Only new software introduced recently was update to Norton 360.
ThanksI know very little about windows but security software is notorious for causing the type of problem you have, you may want to contact Symentec and ask them which settings you need to change.

Photosmart eAll-in-one C310a prints from computer and scans very slowly.
When I highlight a part of an article on my computer to print and then select print preview, it takes about 2 minutes for “as laid out on screen” to show. Then when I select “as selected on screen” it takes about 2 minutes to show. It takes about 2 minutes to change from portrait to landscape. The Photosmart eAll-in-One C310A Printer on my Wi-Fi home network takes about 4 minutes to scan one page. It used to scan fast. Something has changed recently to cause my printer to print and scan very slowly. I have Microsoft Windows 7.

Please try deleting the content of TEMP folder.

Since Firefox update (6.0.2) many sites load very slowly and some do not load at all (green circle rotates infinitely) until "Reload Current Page" is clicked on 2 to 12 times.
Returned to version 5. No more slow load.
Automatically re-updated me to 6.0.2 and now slow again.
Returned to FF 5 again and turned off automatic update.
Downloaded 7.0.1 and the problem seems to be solved.Same here, only that updating to 7.0 or 7.0.1 doesn't seem to solve this issue. Seems to have something to do with loading images (e.g: adobe.com stops loading when "wwwimages.adobe.com" is being loaded. imdb.com, on the other hand, seems to load images very slowly and not all of them).
Safe-mode. disabling add-ons, clearing cache and cookies and checking for malware doesn't help. -
Why when I open multiple tabs in Facebook, the tabs load very slowly and most times don't load at all?
The default of the pref network.http.max-connections has been increased from 30 to 256 in Firefox 6+ versions.
You can try to decrease the value of the pref <b>network.http.max-connections</b> from 255 to a more modest setting like 30 as used in Firefox 3 versions.

IBooks Author: in exported file, one page loads very slowly...
iBooks Author: in exported file, one page loads very slowly and drags when scrolling through pages, almost stopping the scroll. I have never seen this problem before with photo pages. Normally they scroll just as smoothly as text pages.
I have tried rebuilding the page with more compressed files to no avail. The image files used on the page are not any bigger than others I have used previously without any problem.
I have tried restarting my iBook.
I am using a template that I have modified quite a bit. The templates currently offered by Apple and third parties are not even close to what I am looking for in terms of layout, so I have to rip almost everything out of the page and start with a blank page, most of the time. I tried modyfying the layouts to save time and then saved as a new template. Apple really needs to add a module to create your own template at the beginning of a project. Or they need to create one very open template, without much on the pages.I finally solved the problem by using an unmodified template. I would still like to know how my modifications to the other template caused the problem, but for now it remains a mystery. Thanks for your ideas.
Next I will try modifying the template without saving it as a template (merely saving it as a file) to see if I can get away with my modifications. Also I will make fewer modifications.
Slowly but surely I am learning this program by trial and error. Each time I try a few formatting variations, output an iBooks file, and open it on my iPad. I have probably done 20 of these tests, so far. Once I work out every detail of the design and structure, I will build the final book. I am lucky to have a beautiful PDF of the hardcover version, generously provided by my publisher. This not only sets a high bar for me, but also allows me to use some of their design elements via screen capture.
iBooks Author has great potential, but I along way to go to get there. One feature I would really like to see in the next update: the ability to add a hidden caption to a photo. The reader would tap the image and the caption would appear. Tap again and it disappears. -

Try a reset first: Press and hold both Sleep/Wake and Home buttons until the Apple logo appears.
If the reset doesn't fix it, try a restore:

Website loads very slowly in Safari....
I have had my website for quite a while and all of a sudden, when I try to view it in Safari, it loads very slowly and each time the welcome page loads, there are pictures missing. I have not done anything different to my site. Is this a problem with Mobileme or iWeb or both?? My site is captured4u.com

I can't speak for past performance, but any page that is over a MB in size does take longer to load. A problem with your page is that you have an idea of how to add pictures and make the layout how you want it to look, but there is a price the viewer has to pay to download all of those graphics, including some of the text that are being converted to graphics by iWeb (which means Google can't read some of your categories for their index).
I don't find that iWeb does a very good job of optimizing graphics for the web. They work, but dedicated graphics programs like Photoshop or even Photoshop Elements will do much better when the files are resized and saved for web properly.
You would probably do better to simplify the home page with larger single graphics for each category that are used to point to other pages with more related photo's and descriptions. Remember, even the fancy picture frame outlines are more graphics the viewer has to load, and you need to be aware of when iWeb is going to convert your text into graphics either because you are not using standard web safe fonts, are rotating the text or adding other fancy attributes.
Design and optimization are always a compromise. iWeb is not always smart about optimization, and mobileme is not the best solution for speed. They're fairly easy to use, but go easy on them... -
Iweb 09 pages load very slowly - How can I fix this?
Hi-
Just published my website to ipage.com and every page is loading very slowly despite the fact that the backgrounds and graphics are very simple (Many of the pages are text only). I'm using the "Modern theme" Blank with a gradient fill, which is what seems to be causing the slowdown. I've tried it on two computers (macbook and macbook pro), two browsers (safari and firefox) and my iphone 4 - performance is equally poor on all three. Spoke to my Web Hosting technical support (I'm using Ipage) and he says my site is only using 17 mb, which should not cause any issues. My download speeds are also very fast so it's not my computers that are causing the issue (Between 20.5 and 23.2 mbps, ping=18ms). The site address is www.jeffreyjanger.com.
Thanks,
jeffBonjour
the slowness is explained by the big size of gradient fill image. Your background [image|http://www.jeffreyjanger.com/JeffreyJanger/Home_files/backgroundimage_11.png] is a PNG
You've changed color opacity, that forces iWeb to create a PNG file.
if you let opacity to 100%, iWeb will create a JPEG file
In an iWeb published site, JPEG file size can be 25% smaller than PNG (and sometimes more...) -
