Delay in reacting when I do anything

When I try to do anything there is a 5 second delay ie when typing this it has a delay in the letters showing up. When I click a link or tool bar item or in fact anything I do there is a delayed reaction which has got worse over the last few days.
Would appreciated any help.
Thanks

I am having the same problem with safari. Just started this week. I repaired permissions, emptied cache and reset Safari - though deselected a few things,like history, passwords, cookies. Scrolling is jerky and delayed. Typing, hi-lighting, right clicking, clicking on links etc all wait before responding. Now and then everything works for a short time. Then the delays and poor scrolling begin again. This is only a problem in Safari. Everything works fine in mail, text edit etc. Have made no changes recently.

A new tab is opening when I click anything on a page. Options that should open within the same window are opening in a new tab. How do I fix this?

I am currently using 16.0.2. I just did the update a day or two ago. Suddenly today, when I click anything on the page, it opens in a new tab. Just moving through the wizard options to get to this point in submitting this issue opened 7 tabs. How do I fix this? I only want new pages to open in new tabs. If I select 'Next Page' or perform a google search, I don't want a new tab to open. This is getting ridiculous. It's the third time this has happened.....always happens after an update from you guys.....and I can never find the fix in your support pages, and have to submit a question.

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

I can't connect my iPod classic to iTunes, it just doesn't react when I put the USB into the PC

hey, I have an iPod classic and it can't connect to iTunes.
I put the USB into my computer trying to add music, but it doesn't seems to react.
It DOESN'T say that it can't recognize the Ipod..
- Itunes just simpely doesn't react when I put the USB-cabel into my computer.
- when i go to the task manager the "apple device mobile" and "ipod service" is acitve in the processes
- I've tried to restart my computer (windows XP)
- update iTunes
- reinstall iTunes
- restart my apple devices mobile manager
what I think is the problem (which I can't solve) is that iTunes doen't even react to the USB
plz hlp me!
- ps it really should be able to add music to my iPod without getting help from a expert.

Hello qz0rz213,
It would seem that iTunes has encountered or developed an issue in the process of trying to sync photos to your device. The best place to start would be removing the iPod Photo Cache (thus allowing for a new version to be created).
Note: Deleting this folder will not remove the original images from your library.
iTunes: Understanding the iPod Photo Cache folder
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314
If the issue is not resolved by removing the iPod Photo Cache, the following article goes into further steps that can both help you determine the source of this trouble and eliminate it.
Symptoms
In certain situations, iTunes may display an alert or may be unable to sync photos to an iPod or iOS device. Examples include:
After updating iOS, iTunes displays an alert that there is not enough room to sync photos
This error appears: "The iPhone/iPod touch '[device name]' cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found."
This article outlines steps to resolve these issues.

To migrate your data to a new iCloud account go to Settings>iCloud and turn off all synced data (contacts, calendars, etc.), when prompted choose to keep the data on your phone. After everything is set to off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. Next, create the new iCloud account on your phone and turn on syncing for contacts, calendars, etc again. If prompted, choose Merge. This will upload your data to the new iCloud account.

If it's just the apps that you've downloaded from the App Store that you are having problems with, then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.

Delayed response of when moving objects in diagram and panel, happend in LV 6, only for vi's compiled from previous versions. any suggestions?

When I using the mouse to select portion of the diagram or the panel, or when I moving objects- I found that in all the vi's that I compiled from former versions of labview- there is a delay of close to a second to the actual selection or movement of the item. This happens in 2 machines out of 5 that I tested it, and it happened both in windows 2000 and in windows 98. any suggestions?

Sometimes a video driver issue. Update your video driver.
Or turn down the video driver hardware acceleration. Right-click an
empty area of the desktop, choose the Settings tab, choose the Advanced
button.
The location of this differs in different versions of Windows.
Win2000: go to Troubleshooting, and turn down the slider for hardware
acceleration.
Win98: I think it's on another tab.

The Icon of the Downloads Stack @ Dock changes when I put anything inside.

I have a problem, on my new iMac, I'm a happy new user of Mac =)
By my mistake I throw to the trash the Download shortcut of the Dock (the default icon of the famous Stacks).
I went to the Finder to my home folder and took the Download folder and put it again on the Dock, and everything was ok with the icon with the arrow.
The problem is that from now when I put a file or anything inside the Download folder, the icon of de Dock changes to the icon of the file that I've put inside.
This only happens on the icon on the Dock of the Download foder, the icons of the Applications and Documents on the Dock doesn´t change when you put anything inside.
Any solution?
Thank you.

control-click on Downloads in the dock and choose display as-> folder.

Hard drive says I have more than 300 GB available with a 500 gb capacity. Yet I get "Low Disk Space" error messages when I do anything.

Attempted solutions:
-I created a new User Account and I can download large files with no issues.
-I ran "Repair Disk Permissions" but still get warnings.

Spotify Warning:
But on my other user account I can use spotify and download large files, etc.

Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

-Double click the Home Button (Circle at the bottom of your phone with the square)
-It Should bring up the multitasking bar
-Then hold your finger down on any of the apps on that bar, and they should jiggle like your going to delete it
as well red circle with a white line it, will show up in the top right corner of every app, (on the bottom bar)
-and just clear all the apps on the bar by pressing that red circle.
it can fix alot of app related issues.

My iTunes keeps freezing when I try to switch from the Summary page to the Podcasts page to try and manage which podcasts I sync to my iPod. It doesn't freeze when I manage anything else, only podcasts.

It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.<br />
Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
