Dreamweaver/Flash/Getting pages to load faster

I am working on a site in CS3 Dreamweaver that uses Flash
Videos (.flv). Unfortunately, these videos are taking forever to
load (sometimes they do not load at all) when you visit the site
(each video is less then 30 MB). I am currently using the Godaddy
Premium account as my hosting server (it's not a dedicated or
virtual server). Is there anything that I can do to get these
videos to load faster?
Here is the page that I am working on:

30Mb is a lot. You need to find a host who provides Flash
Media Server -
that will help with the streaming of the videos.

Getting Faces to load faster

I'm interested in optimizing Faces tagging to get the Faces Library to load faster.
I've seen several forums regarding the slowness in getting Faces to load, primarily due to it needing to dynamically build the library each time it loads.
I'm looking for any helpful tips which "may" help getting the Faces library to load faster. Right now it's taking about 15 seconds to load.
Is the loading time based on :
* overall number of pics in the library?
* number of tagged faces I have on my corkboard?
* number of untagged faces?
Basically I know the number of pics has an impact, but I'm wondering if it helps to reduce the number of tagged faces, then I can remove some. Or if it helps to ignore all the faces which I'm not interested in.

I don't know if this will be helpful but it sounds like you get the general architecture or the way Faces work but have not connected the dots so let me give it a try for you.
If you try to load global faces view but have many unconfirmed faces it will be slow. It will also be slow when you try to look at one face when there are many unconfirmed matches because Aperture is looking for all the possibilities in the entire library.
So...
To make it faster just confirm your faces don't leave a bunch of possibilities out there.
Also realize that you can use the faces view at any library level - you don't have to use it on the global view. For example, say you have a bunch of projects that have nothing to do with your family and a bunch of projects that contain family images. If you don't care about the faces in the non-family projects just create a folder, deposit all family projects and use the faces interface on that folder vs all of you projects. Slice and dice for whatever works for you.

I have to keep moving my mouse to get pages to load

every couple of months firefox will stop working and pages wont load unless i am constantly moving my mouse and in order to get it back to normal i have to uninstall and reinstall it

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Constantly getting connection timeouts when loading websites, have to keep retrying to get pages to load.

Hello,
Had this problem for a few days now. Sometimes pages will load quickly and fine. But other times they will take a while and then just display a connection timeout error message. After trying a few times to load page again it will work. As you can understand this is very frustrating.
Any ideas what is happening and how to solve it?
Many Thanks,
Jim

Old ibook with OS 9 -- cannot get pages to load

The computer has been in a drawer for 5 yrs and I want to use it just to view the web and almost nothing else. Web pages connect, then nothin loads, so I cannot get updates.
Should I reformat, if so how. Is it worth it all to try to get the machine working?

Ok, I was able to download icab to another computer and email it to an AOL address as the ibook has a working AOL email function. So I have a working browser and I downloaded an update to OS 9, but the computer is so frightfully slow to operate and web pages have so many more features now that it is choking.
I would need to get an airport card to use it wirelessly and I am still wondering if any of this would be worth it.
Weigh in with any thoughts (anyone) and thank you for the help on the browser.

Having trouble getting pages to load on web based subscription managing my retail and scheduling

Originally I could not get the search feild to allow the blinking curser to enter so I could type in letters on http://clients.mindbodyonline.com.
I had to be able to put my business name in to the search, then it brings me to my page to log in.
So I downloaded Opera MIni as someone suggested, and it worked. I was then able to get my password in and such.
But now the problem is, once I am in, I can not click on a tab and expect a page to come up after I have already done it once.
I can see my schedule okay, but going to the retail screen and searching for products doesnt always work.
What can I down load to help my blackberry better communicate with this web hosted managing program?

Try setting the paragraph style for the footnotes to use one of the Single Line composers instead of the Paragraph Composer, and add your discretionary breaks where you'd like them to happen.

Once my Java program is loaded the it's reponse time is fine but how can I get it to load faster. It takes 10 to 15 seconds to load.

Is it related to iAS. Which java program are you loading. It depends on several issues right from your processor to the classloader.
Could you provide more details.
Thanks,
Rakesh.

Tired of Clicking and Re-clicking links in Safari to get the page to load

I am so TIRED of having to click and re-click links in Safari to get pages to load. Sometimes the page will begin to load, but will "hang" and I'm forced to refresh (or hit return, or re-click the link, etc.) in order for the page to load properly.
Can anyone help?

I have been going through this as well - and the losing connection issue.
After uploading the new airport update, Apple help had me do some resets (the power manager and the PRam I believe) and it seems to be working well.
On the other hand, it has worked well at times before and then fell out of wellness... I hope this does the trick.
It is crazy to be dealing with these issues on a macbook.
I HOPE it's not that on the Core 2, the fact that the N is hacked off unless you pay 1.99 isn't making this buggy. That would be a very bad thing on Apple's part.
Just give us full use of the card on the machine from the get go. Not a partly working version. To me, that's suspect in this issue.

Safari - Pages Not Loading

I am having a terrible time today. My internet is working fine but I can't get pages to load in Safari.
It's just started happening today. I updated Safari with the new OS Update.
Partial Pages Upload
No page Upload
Pages just stop loading and I can't even close the tab via the grey X in the corner
Is anyone else having these problems.
I've reset Safari
Rebooted
Not sure what else to do.
Thanks
Bill

Hi Bill ..
Might be a cookies, cache, or extensions issue ..
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
Click: Remove All Website Data
Then delete the cache.
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If nothing above helped, try this DNS server.
Open System Preferences > Network > Advanced > DNS
Click + and type:
208.67.222.222
Click + again and do the same.
208.67.220.220
Click OK.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found

Whenever I use a search engine, I keep getting the error message "The connection was reset while the page was loading".

I am able to access the internet, but none of the search engines like Google, Yahoo or Bing will work. the page will not load. I get the error message:
The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
* The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

My screen load times have slowed down to a crawl. I have to wait and wait for a page to load. (I know --dial -up) It used to be much faster a month ago before 5.0. Is it FireFox or do I look to Yahoo for the problem? I don't know how to sort it out.

I'm having the same problem. Dreamweaver is supper slow. Uploading and downloads from the server... any server I use two different servers. It times out all the time. Menus are slow too.
I'm on a MAC Pro, 6 gigs of ram no issues with anything else. I have talked to Apple they have checked everything for me. They say it's Dreamweaver. I've noticed the Dreamweaver is talking to the FTP even when I'm not doing anything.
I've tried cleaning out my MAC caches, turning off file check and check out. Still really slow. I've worked with Dreamweaver for 6 years never any issues like this before. 18 seconds to upload a 4 kb file. 11 seconds to download the same file.

Dreamweaver embedded flash content will not load in IE7

My company standard is IE7
I'm charged with developing flv that will auto play on PC from a removable thumb drive.
in addition it should be able to launch a url.
I'm using CS4 Flash and Dreamweaver
developing on a Mac.
I've used action script 3 to program buttons that start, stop and launch url
I've worked everything out on a Mac.it works fine in Mac environment.
I've gotten swf files to autoplay on PC
the PROBLEM?
when I try load the html web page on the PC with IE7 the flash content (either a swf or flv embedded using Dreamweaver) does not load.
IF I leave the IE specific html in the code IE7 returns a message that flash player needs to update. - IT has installed the latest version of flash player.
if I extract the sniffer/alternative code the flash content does not load there is no message
If the swf file auto loads and plays then Why is that a problem?
action script - to launch url execution launches as a security warning and the trusted settings window
not very seamless eh?
so the alternative is to play the flash content embedded in html and create launch url button in html . . . but ofcourse flash content won't load in IE7.
I've not been able to test the code on any other version of IE
I hope this is enough information to help if not let me know what you need to know . . .
thanks in advance for any time you all spend on this.

So right now you have a SWF file that plays and FLV file and it's not loading in IE7. Is the testing server that you are using NOT on your local machine? The reason I ask this is because IE will typically block content if it is hosted on the local machine and treat it as a security risk, prompting the message you refer to.
Also would it be possible for us to see the code you are using for the plugin? Most users here will be able to help troubleshoot any issues with the HTML code if we can see it, however, there is a possibility that the fix may be in Flash, in which case you should cross-post this in the Flash forum as well for assistance just in case.

Why do firefox pages load faster if I switch to different application on the taskbar?

Using XP sp3, Firefox 27.0.1. Firefox spikes resources usage. I've tried resetting firefox. Granted, my pc is older, and only has 2.25 gig of ram, but until recently the loading time was acceptable. Now it's not. This seems to happen occasionally after firefox is updated.
Pages are loading much more slowly recently, maybe since security update on 2/14? The odd thing is, if, while the page is loading, I click on another non-firefox application, like the task manager, in the taskbar, the firefox page seems to load faster. Is this possible? The delay seems to be when the spinning circle (I don't know what it's called - favicon?) with the ball has turned green and is rotating to the right. I'm not talking just a few seconds of difference. It could be a minute's difference.
Thanks for any help you can give.

Ok, so I installed a program called Process Explorer, which is like Windows Task Manager, but with a bit more information. When Firefox is loading a new page, and is the current window, the page is slow to load and firefox takes between 65-80% of the cpu. If I click off firefox, it can take as much as 97% of the cpu, giving some up to AVG's avgrsx.exe, vprot.exe and sometimes plugin-container.exe, but loads the page faster.
Your instructions:
"let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process. "
I'm not sure what you mean - should I see this happening (as in it asking permission from me to grant access)? Because I don't.
I've attached a screenshot of Process explorer top cpu processes while the page is loading.

"Reload current page/Stop loading current page" seems to be missing from Navigation Bar customization. How do I get it back?

I am loading Firefox on a new computer, and I can't find the Navigation Bar button for "Reload current page/Stop loading current page". Is there any way to get it back as a choice under Navigation Bar customization or to create a new function? CTRL-R used to work for this function, but I'd like to have the button on the Navigation Bar.

View Page Source has been moved to the "Web Developer" sub-menu. You can use any of the following to View Page Source:
*CTRL+U
*Right-click a blank area of the page and choose "View Page Source"
*Firefox button > Web Developer > View Page Source
*Using the Menu Bar: Tools > Web Developer > Page Source
*ALT+T+W, release ALT key, letter O key
