Disable or Customize initial Loading Progress Bar

Is there a way to disable or customize the first progress bar
that is displayed while the browser is downloading the MXML
Application SWF?

Hey Michael,
Check out this thread on changing the loader:

Short answer is, not in Flash Catalyst right now.
But you can change it in Flash Builder with a little coding.
Hope this helps,

Time machine takes forever on initial backup, progress bar randomly resets

When I first tried to run Time Machine I was sure that it would be simple, as Apple Software generally is. I was warned by another user that the first backup might take a while, so I began the backup on a Friday night (the day my crispy new external 320GB Seagate drive arrived). When I went to bed it was on around 24GB of approx 65GB of data. When I got up the next morning, it had only backed up 27GB!
Another problem I had a couple of times was after the backup had been going for 3-4 hours it would reset itself and start all over again! In other words the progress bar got 50% of the way through and then went back to 0%. This was obviously extremely annoying, and prompted me to stop the process, reformat the backup drive and search for some more answers in the internet.
After a full Saturday of fluffing around, calling my friend who has Time Machine working OK and watching the little blue bar creep along at speeds like 1.5MB/s (according to activity monitor) I finally managed to get it to work!
I've summarised what I did below:
_Formatting your Time Machine drive_
In the Disk Utility, select the drive and choose “Partition”
Press the “Options…” button.
Use "Apple Partition Map" partition scheme if the disk will be used with Time Machine and a PowerPC-based Mac.
Use "GUID" partition scheme if the disk will be used with Time Machine and a Intel-based Mac.
The following links are worth a look:

_Spotlight may interfere_
Turn off indexing for Spotlight on the Time Machine drive
In the Spotlight control panel
Click the privacy button
Click the + button and choose your Time Machine backup drive
This will mean that Spotlight will not try to index the drive while the backup is happening.
_Excluding files_
In the Time Machine Control Panel
Click Options…
Do not back up:
Press the + button and choose the system folder
Choose “Excluded all system files “ in the dialogue box that comes up.
See the following link for more info on this step:
http://www.macinstruct.com/node/234
I’ve also heard that *turning off 3rd party antivirus software* may also help (if you have any – I don’t)

Are you running it over wireless or ethernet?
We particularly advise initial backup to be done over ethernet otherwise the job has this tendency not to finish. The fact is wireless has errors.. and error correction doesn't work very well during the initial copying.. TM does a verify of the backup once it finishes.. I think this is the 5sec mark.. and keeps building as it discovers files that don't match. It can also be spotlight indexing. What it is doing is good.. doing it over wireless is very bad. It has to read both sides.. then compare then decide if there is a corruption to copy the file again.. then compare again.
It can also be a file is actually corrupt on the source disk.
My inclination is to kill it. Even if you have to restart from scratch.. over ethernet it copies at about 60GB an hour.. it should complete overnight with hours to spare.
Do a verify of the source disk before you start. And load in widget to get actual log messages from TM.
See A1 http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
Pondini also has some stuff about backups taking far too long.
See D section in reference above.. also how to cancel a TM backup. (other than turn it off).

Display page load progress bar...

I have a page which takes about 50-60 secs to load and I want to display some kind of progress bar indicating to the user that the page is loading. This page is a pop up page with a report returning a lot of data. I searched the forum and most of the progress bar examples are related to a button click event. However I want the progress bar to display before the entire page has been loaded.
I really need to get this done fast and any kind of help or suggestion will be really appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi Carl,
I have a similar issue to the one 'user549354' listed.
The application in this case is single page application with a couple of report regions, one of which takes about a minute for the query to return the result.
The example listed below by you, and another one I have found by Vikas, both fire a javascript-redirect off a button... The related forum posts are:
Long running process/query
Re: Long running process/query
but if you want the processing page off the initial url, this is not possible.
Yes, you could workaround it by showing a button on the initial page which the user has to press to see the processing page ... but that is not an ideal solution.
I am not very familiar with javascript, and have tried the following alternatives unsuccessfully
1) Using a url to a different (intermediate) page (say page # 2) which has a display as text item that renders the animated gif image, with following source
Please wait...
<img src="/i/processing3.gif" />
in combination with different types of processes (on load/after regions/after footer) which redirect to my original page (say page #1) by doing the following
begin
htp.init;
owa_util.redirect_url('f?p=&APP_ID.:1:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.:1:::');
end;
This does not show the intermediate page at all, just waits until the actual page loads.
2) use the display as text item mentioned above, and in the region source (html region) using the following:
<META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="2;URL=f?p=&APP_ID.:1">
The problem here is that the animated gif becomes de-animated after the the number of seconds set in the code, in the above case 2 seconds.
3) using the page header and footer javascript mentioned in the links off your post, and trying to fire it from a url type region using the following codce
javascript:html_Submit_Progress(this);
This fails with error – object does not exist – presumably because this needs to be fired off an item – wonder if it will work off a link.
4) Various other permutations and combinations of the above…
You have mentioned in your last post on this thread that an intermediate page could be called, that will fire the progress bar, and then redirect to the slow loading page.
This is seems to exactly what I am after – with the url of the intermediate page being the initial url with which to access the application.
The problem is that I do not know
a) where or how to fire the relevant javascript [javascript:html_Submit_Progress(this);] from, besides a button press, and also
b) how to (then and only then) re-direct to the slow loading page, so as to ensure that the animated gif is displayed… using any of pre-submit process (on load… after footer) prevents the page and the animated gif from rendering.
I am sure that this is very much possible… any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks.

OS hangs at loading progress bar when restarting after Security Update

I've searched for other people who have had issues with the Security Update, but my issue doesn't seem to have been solved. Here's the story:
Just installed the new Security update. Shut the computer down for the night, started it up, and halfway through starting up it restarted itself again. It got past the grey Apple, the blue progress bar started loading, got to the end, but doesn't go anywhere. I've let it sit for 15 minutes, but no progress. The internal fan sounds like an airplane taking off, it just keeps going faster and nothing happens. Tried rebooting in safe mode, but it got hung up on the grey Apple and spinning wheel of death.
Anything I can do from the Terminal to fix this?
Thanks guys!

cPants:
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Have your tried:
Repair Disk
Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report if it says anything but Verified)
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need to use a utility like Tech Tool Pro or Disk Warrior
Good luck.

How to customize video player progress bar?

I want a video progress bar (maybe it is a slider ), which
can be used to show the buffer progress of video, the standard
slider control in Flex has not this function.
How can I customize the silder control?

this is a very basic video player. what we've done here is A
LOT of binding i.e. vp.playheadTime=(vp.totalTime/(100/ctr.value))
after you've figured out what the right math is..which is
already done here, you can just skin it and it'll work fine. i
haven't had the time to update this for a while but there is
definitely room for improvement. hope this helps.

How do I enable a loading progress bar?

There's a spinning donut, but no pogress bar to show if anything is actually loading or how much has been loaded

hello dhermosillo, the spinning throbber will be replaced by a progress bar in firefox 29, the next version scheduled to be released at the end of the month - the feature is currently in beta and if you want to test it, you can download it from https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox_beta

OSX 10.10: Is it normal to have a loading progress bar at each startup

My MBP-13 (Mid 2010) has become very slow on startup and each time I start (from cold or re-start) it has a "process bar" as if an update is loading, on the Grey Screen where previous to the update there was just the Apple Logo. This began when I upgraded to Yosemite. Admittedly, my hard drive is a bit full (51 GB remaining) and that could be partly to blame for the slower startup, I feel like something is not quite right since the update. Earlier today on the left pane of my finder window, there were 5 versions of this MBP under the "Shared" column (5 versions of itself!). I thought this was strange so I did a restart and while it did take care of the 'ghost' shared versions of itself, it was still slow to startup again, and the progress bar was there again during the grey screen part of the startup process, as it is each time the computer starts.
So My questions are:
1. Is it normal to have that progress bar during startup with Yosemite when it was never there before the update?
and
2. What would cause this computer to show what I like to refer as 'ghost' versions of itself under the shared column on its own finder window left pane?
Thanks in advance for any wisdom you may impart.
Regard,
Capt Ron

1. Yes, the progress bar replaced the spinning gear. Haven't a clue why, but might be to mimic iOS devices ( I don't have any, so can't check).
2, Can't answer, since I share nothing.

How can I remove the Loading Progress Bar that pops-up at the bottom of the screen and relocates its self every time i try to mouse over it ?

I noticed that the latest beta of Firefox has brought a new feature, namely that grey box that pops up when you load a new page and displays the progress : loading... transferring .. and so on. I find that very annoying. How can I remove it ?
I have tried from the Customize panel... but I haven't found anything related to that.

@cor-el: Thank you for your help. Got the issue fixed.
For those who are interested in a quick fix for this, go under (user profile depending on what OS you are using)\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\chrome , create a css file named userChrome.css (you have an example there... ) and paste in this code :
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");
#statusbar-display { display: none !important; }
Not sure if it's really correct, but it removed that annoying Status-bar, so I'm satisfied with it.

11.1.2.0 data form load progress bar

We are not seeing circle progress/hourly glass when loading some large set of data. Form is rather showing no load status thus confusion to users whether it is doing anything.
Please let me know if anyone has any advise or solution to get around this behavior. I see below fix from 11.1.2.1.000 patch set but my issue is with load not the save (when clicking GO to load form)
• 9928211 If business rules are associated with a data form, a progress indicator needs to
display when the data form is saved.
Thanks much.

At the end of day ..Does webform working perfectly???

Stuck on booting screen (loading progress bar)

My Mac stuck on the booting screen (the grey page) then shuts down, I've opened the recovery mode by holding the command+R then opened disk utilities -> verifyied my desk -> found errors -> repaired my desk -> Got red message "Disk utility can't repair this disk. Back up as many of your files as possible!" then i decided to create an image to store it on my external hardrive i got this message "Unable to create image input/output error"
What i have to do ? I need to back up my files and get my MAC running well !

You have already tried repair, and it did not fix enough to get your Mac working again.
Now buy two hard drives and enclosures.
One is a Large Backup drive. USB-2 enclosure will suffice, but the bigger the better. It does not have to be a notebook (2.5-in) form factor.
The Other is a candidate for a replacement for your internal drive -- but do not move it just yet.
While it is still in the external enclosure, Install Mac OS X on it and boot from it. Now you can get some work done if needed, and can use the full power of Mac OS X and additional Utilities to attempt to repair your drive and salvage your files. Mac OS X is about 400,000 of those files, so if they cannot be saved, it does not matter.
Once you have salvaged what you can and are confident that the new Boot drive works, you can swap it inside your MacBook and get portability back.

After updating to the latest version of Firefox on my Mac there is no progress bar for the page load. I really miss this feature and can't seem to find a way to obtain it.

The page load progress bar that was on the lower right of the window is no longer there. After updating to the latest version of Firefox on my Mac there is no progress bar for the page load. I really miss this feature and can't seem to find a way to obtain it. The tab has a circular progress wheel but this is useless for determining a stuck or slow loading page.
PLEASE NOTE: I am typing this in from a Windows based work computer but am asking about my Apple MacBook Pro that i use at home.

Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session. 
You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time. 
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page. 
Another possibility is to use:
* [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences Firefox (Tools) > Options] > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

Show progress bar while module loads

I have a TabView where each tab is a module. One of the
modules has a lot of child components and when I click to activate
that tab - it takes 2-3 seconds to load. During this time OSX shows
the beach ball.
Is it possible for me to show a loading progress bar instead?
Should I be pre-loading all the modules when the application loads,
or at some other point? If so, how do I do this?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hey Jason,
I'm not sure who moderates, but I can send you in the right
direction.
Short answer: Look around for Asynchronous Flex demos
Long answer:
The interfaces locks up (beach ball/hour glass) because the
main application 'thread' is busy with the task you asked of it.
This can, in many different languages, cause a freeze. Javascript,
Native Mac or Windows applications, apparently Flex too.
Running one task at a time is considered a synchronous
(serial) request. What you need to do is make an asynchronous
(parallel) request. In the web world, that's the 'A' in Ajax. By
making asynchronous requests, you free up the main 'thread', while
a separate worker thread is off completing the task. This keeps
your interface responsive.
I think that leads to event listeners.. Send off a background
request, but listen for it to complete. Link the listener to a
second piece of code upon successful completion.
I wish I could get into more detail, but I'm not a Flex guy..
hoped that at least helped gel the idea.
