Download is very slow

I try to download Illustrator CS6 through my account in Creative Cloud, after 1 hour it has downloaded ~1/4 of its content. Anyone else experiencing this or is it my internet connection? I have 2GB speed but has not had any problem before. I was thinking, can I download try outs and then activate them through Creative Cloud using my account? Or is it a heavy traffic right now to Adobe's servers?

Well, being at home right now the download progress is still very slow. I tried to download via download page but it's not faster. I use a faster internet connection at home and thought it would help but nope. After 45 min it has downloaded 8,4 MB and 3 hours left of the progress. I don't recall downloading from Adobe ever been this slow before? Anyone else having this problem?

Mountain lion download is very slow and in-between it hangs of and starts from beginning. Is there a solution i have already purchased it can i download a torrent and authorize it

Mountain lion download is very slow and in-between it hangs of and starts from beginning. Is there a solution I have already purchased it can I download a torrent and authorize it. Somebody pl. Help

Exactly. Some of us don't understand the situation in India. This is a country with sickest internet speeds. The internet segment is dominated by fraudulant companies. There is no consistency that is why most of the data transfer here is through Pen drives and torrent websites. We have never seen a good downlooad speed here. And on the top of inconsistency lies the Mac book Air without a built in RJ45 port.
If i have to do it in an internet cafe it will cost me more time and money than to purchase a Mac book air itself. Apple should start giving us software loaded flash drives at least at premium.

What is wrong with the app store and how long before its fixed, im downloading atna very slow pash and i have a 10mb uncontested line.

Sorry, its on both my iphone 4s (2 iphones) and ipad2 that the app store is slow, I have done all the above and still when i download a 1 mb app it take about a half a hour just to download and previously it wasn't even a second. When browsing the web the devices are fast and internet speed is good, but when going in to app store it takes long to load and show me the new app, updates, featured app ect. We watch movie online and the streaming is brilliant. Even on my windows pc the app store is slow and sometimes says that i store could not be opened, i have also tried on my buddies wifi and there it does exactly the same which makes me think that its on apples side, but why do you not have any problems?

Hello there, Cmm405.
If you're updating your iPad with an over-the-air iOS update, the following Knowledge Base article offers up some practical steps for troubleshooting some of the issues that can arise:
Resolve issues with an over-the-air iOS update - Apple Support
In your instance, these sections may prove particularly useful:
Download takes a long time, or you can't reach update server
iOS updates require a persistent Internet connection, and the time it takes to download the update will vary according to the size of the update and your Internet speed. You can use your device normally while downloading the iOS update, and iOS will notify you when you can install the update. To improve the speed of the download, avoid downloading other content.
If you get a message that "an error occurred downloading iOS," try again later. If the issue persists, try updating your device in another network or use iTunes to update your device. Learn more about iOS updates.
Update does not complete
If you're installing the update and the progress bar appears to move slowly, be patient. The time an update takes depends on the size of the update and the number of files on the device.
When you're updating over the air, keep your device connected to a power source so that it doesn't run out of power. If your device does run out of power, connect it to a power source and turn on the device to let the update or restore complete.
If the update never completes and the progress bar hasn't moved for an extended time, try restarting your device. If you still see the issue after you restart, see what to do if your device appears frozen or won't start.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

Apps store download is very slow on Iphone 5

Hi,
Apps store download on iPhone 5 is running very slow. It is taking lot of time for updating any game or app. It was fine till last OS update. It used be very fast.
Please let me know if there is any solution for this.
Shasi

Try this.
IOS Restore Steps
Before restoring:
Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes.
Back up your device.
Transfer and sync content to your computer.
Restoring your iOS device

Mac App Store download speed very slow...

I have been trying to download the App Store updates OS X Update 10.10.3 and OS X Yosemite Recovery Update to my iMac for the past several days. When opening the Mac App Store, I click on updates and they appear. However, when I select 'download' my download speed slows to the point of less than 1 MB per minute.
I seem to remember this happening when Yosemite was first released, but after a few days, I had no problem downloading Yosemite from the App Store.
This only occurs when trying to download from the Mac App Store. When I download iOS App updates to iTunes I do not have the same problem so it seems to be only affecting the Mac App Store.
My internet speed is fine. I can download fine from other websites, just not the Mac App Store.
After searching online, I found one solution that looked promising:
Finder->Applications->Utilities->Keychain Access->Preferences->Certificates->Certificate Revocation List- Changed from Best attempt to OFF.
Unfortunately for me this had no effect so I changed the setting back.
I then looked for a way I could download the files from outside the Mac App Store & found this:
Apple - Support - Downloads
When downloading from Apple Support downloads page, my downloads were very fast. The Yosemite 2 GB Combo update took about 15 minutes, a far cry from the App Store which would have taken hours.
Is there some setting I need to change to increase the download speed from the Mac App Store or is it just overloaded servers? Why then can I download the files from the support page and not run into the same slow speeds? Updating iTunes was also giving me very slow download speeds, so again, I went to the Apple Support Downloads & clicked the link to download the latest version of iTunes. The file downloaded in about a minute.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Apple servers are overloaded. Instead of using App Store, use safari to download the updates manually from apple websites.
Here's a link for OS X 10.10.2 Combo Update.
OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 Combo Update
I had the same issue and downloaded manually from this link. It took me about 30-40 minutes. I'm using a 5mb connection. Your 40mb connection should be faster.
As for the iOS updates, you will have to download them from your iOS devices, because there are no standalone updates for iOS. Alternatively after you update your Mac, use iTunes to download iOS updates by connecting your iOS devices with your Mac. That should be faster than downloading through your iOS devices.

Software updates download is very slow

Today I downloaded 2 software updates; OSX 10.9.5 and Safari 7.1. The download speed was very slow and erratic. The activity monitor showed that the process "softwareipdated" was receiving data at anywhere from 1 to 25 kbs. My DSL connection is never very fast but typically receives 130 to 150 kbs. Other downloading such as streaming music or video has been normal. Any ideas why this happened and could this be a symptom of some more fundamental problem?

It may not be exclusive to Verizon but considering that Apple updates are severely affected on my system, yet my next door neighbor with Comcast has no problems whatsoever, I am 100% confident that Verizon is playing a role in my woes. In fact, I updated my wife's iPad to iOS 8 OTA on a relative's Xfinity wifi just to get it completed. Took me about an hour to complete. I came back home, less than a quarter mile away to my lovely FiOS and boom, 15-20 hour download estimate on my rMBP to update my iPad Mini (which I'm saving for last or at least until this issue is resolved). Changing my DNS seemed to work briefly on my rMBP but less than a day later my speeds were back to being slow as molasses. At least I had the opportunity to update both my rMBP and iPad Air before the speed took a nosedive again. Just wish I had updated the Mini too. I figured the problem was resolved and I'd get a chance to update it later.
Judging by several posts I found online (links to two examples posted below), I see I'm not alone in thinking something funny is going on between Apple and Verizon. I won't refute your claim that it is also affecting other providers, because your experience sounds pretty close to mine, but everyone I've encountered with problems in this area has FiOS. Folks around me who subscribe to other ISP's seem fine. The link below to the discussion on dslreports (2nd link) is particularly telling because I read it after trying various troubleshooting steps and was surprised by the number of people who posted in that thread that had identical issues and troubleshooting experiences as me. Several people also mentioned that the problem disappeared after they connected to Apple update through a VPN.
I assumed it was primarily on the East Coast because I have relatives in the West and Midwest with FiOS who have not had any issues.
I called Verizon but that was about as useful as your experience. They didn't even bother pointing fingers. They simply said "if everything else works then I'm getting what I pay for". I promptly replied that as an almost exclusively Apple household, I am most certainly not getting what I pay for if I can't upgrade my software, apply security patches or use my Apple streaming devices. Unfortunately, no one seems interested in fixing the issue, so we're left to find our own solutions.
And that's exactly what I did roughly an hour ago. Comcast will be out to swap my equipment and service in 14 days. Problem solved... At least I hope.

HT4623 downloading is very slow,when we are downloading the updates

Downloading of the updates is very slow

What kind of updates? Are you connected to wifi or cellular data? What is the signal strength you are dealing with? Lots of reasons things could run slow.

Fast download but (very) slow upload speed

I know that typically upload speeds are slower than download from most ISP in the US, but I have been doing tests the past few weeks on 3 different Mac's (and iPhone/iPad) and while my download speed is good (between 20 and 30 mbps, my upload speed never really gets past 1mpbs (.95 is about average).
Are there any settings on my Airport Express settings that I can change or look at? I'm running the latest Lion on two pretty new machines and Snow Leopard on an older iMac that we have, all with very simiar results.
Thanks.

One area to try is to change the default (Automatic) setting for the Ethernet WAN Port in the AirPort Utility.
I would suggest trying 1000 Mbps/Full Duplex, and then, 100 Mbps/Full Duplex to see which gives you better results.

Download speeds very slow

I've seen many other threads on slow download speeds, however most of those were last summer/fall after people upgraded to Lion. I bought a new iMac with Lion preinstalled (last summer) and have not had issues with download speeds until that last month or two. I believe the issue started with the Feb 1, 2012 system upgrade to 10.7.3. The iMac started to intermittently drop the wifi network. At this point the download speeds were also significantly slower. There was a patch that more or less fixed the dropping issue, however the download speeds are still awful. It still occasionally drops the wifi network, but not as often as before.
I've tried a few things to troubleshoot.
1) I have a Macbook Pro with Snow Leopard and I'm able to download a 2GB file in about 25 minutes wirelessly. On the iMac it estimates over 2 hours but takes longer.
2) I checked the firmware on my Qwest Actiontec modem, and it's up to date.
3) when I plug my iMac directly into the modem with an ethernet cable it's able to download the 2GB file in about 25 minutes.
Thoughts on how to resolve this?
Thanks!

Wifi download speed very slow comparing to ethernet

Hello!
I have very strange problem with internet connection in my iMac.
I have a linksys router and 6Mbps broadband (slow or not, it's Poland ).
I try to download the same file via wifi or cable (connected to linksys).
Transfer on cable: 600-800kBps, transfer on wifi 50-100kBps.
Why is that?
It's very strange because ma macbook pro connected via wifi to linksys downloads the same file with transfer as well 600-800kBps.
On iMac there is Leopard 10.5.5. Linksys was restarted many times. iMac - 24" inch model 2.8GHz.
Does anybody know any solution?
Thanks in advance
Christopher

Hello there Sayed Shah Jehan,
It sounds like your iOS update is downloading too slow. Take a look at this information from the following article, about troubleshooting over the air downloads:
