Extreme slow upload from cf card

Hi, dont know if this is to do with Mac, card reader or card.
2G CF card with photos on took 1 hour to upload. Is this slow because of my machine (have 1gb of ram) or could my card reader (Mikomi 5 in 1) be the cause? Card is a sandisk extreme 11 and takes only a few minutes to up load onto PC. Had no other applications running at the time. Seems very slow, would really appreciate comments thanks

Sorry to worry you Sharron!
I did a bit more research and it looks like the limiting factor is your CF card itself. USB 2.0 supports a peak speed of 480Mbit/s (= 60MB/s) which is why I initially thought 12 minutes seemed a bit slow. It seems your CF card has a maximum transfer speed of 15MB/s, so this makes the 12 minutes sound better to me (still not as quick as it theoretically could work).
Next time try plugging it directly into the back of the machine (if you can) to see if it's any quicker, as the keyboard is in essence just another hub.
USB relies on a bit of help from the CPU so if you're running something very CPU intensive then uploading then may be a bit slower.
Edit: And to answer your last question, it might help to have a bit more memory installed as if you're using large photo manipulation programs, then your Mac may need to use virtual memory which could possibly use a bit more CPU power. I'm just guessing here, so don't take my word for it though!

Macbook pro: Extremely slow upload speed

Hi,
I know this question has beed raised many times before me, seemingly from hundreds or thousands of users, but none of the threads I have found has lead to any solution.
My new Macbook Pro (15 inch), using Lion 10.7.3, is simply unable to obtain anything but an extremely slow upload speed, when using Wifi. I am using an Apple Airpor Extreme wifi device. My work PC, my older Macbook Pro (13 inch), all tablets and telephones etc hooks up to the same Wifi device and obtain all the speed they should, but my new Macbook Pro is sloooooooooooowwwww and sometimes cannot even initiated an uload speedtest at i.a. www.speedtest.net.
As mentioned, I am aware that there are plenty of threads on this, but I am not aware of any that provides a solution.
Is there a solution or is my new Macbook nothing but crAplle?
Best regards,
n

My subscription is 10 Mbps downloadand 2 Mbps download. upload
I get that (10/2 Mbps) on all other devices, other than my new Macbook Pro.
On my new Macbook pro I get 10 Mbps download, but only from 0 to 25 Kbps upload.

Extreme slow upload speed in Dallas area

Hello
Something happened to my upload speed last Thursday, it has dropped considerably connecting to most servers making many sites very sluggish. I have the hardest time just attaching a file in Gmail and the gmail chat keeps saying 'unable to connect'. Using FTP for my work is almost impossible. It's takes me 5-10 tries to upload a file that's not even 50KB.
I've called Verizon tech support and went through different diagnostics and then they sent a new router, which still didn't help. Here's what I concluded so far:
It's not the router
It's not the computer since it happens on every machine
It's not the wiring since I can get good speed test connecting to some servers.
It's not the servers that i'm connecting to; everything works when i'm at work or on the phone.
I have 15/5, I've attached some speed test results.
Verizon's own speed test page even timed our during upload, which was stuck under 0.5 when it was about to finish.
Anyone else experiencing this? Verizon say my issue is currently with the engineers, but I have no idea how long that wait to be.
Thank you

Is there any Verizon representative that can escalate my issue?
Basically a tech came last Saturday and wasn't able to figure out what was wrong and left and closed my ticket. Whenever I call back now they're just telling me it's my computer, which is completely FALSE. All my 5-6 computer just doesn't happen to have slow upload speed of the sudden and require modification to RWin buffer as the suggested by the on-site tech. Verizon phone support bluntly told me they can't do anything further and would charge me for coming out again to replicate my issue.
Things the tech have already tried:
-Run Fios Optimizer multiple times on multiple computers.
-Replaced router
-Replaced ONT
-Rebooted PON card
Upload speed still sporadic, works perfect on some speedtests, but it's less than 0.5MB on many servers including Verizon's very own local speedtest. Gmail and any google site request is constantly slow. This site is slow and often times out. FTP to my own site is almost impossible if I want to upload a file that's bigger than 100kb.
I'm extremely frustrated.... There are reports of same exact issues in other thread, one seems to be fixed. Is there any way Verizon can look at that and apply it here?

Extremely slow download from Itunes store when on NAS

Hi All,
     Since the latest Itunes update 10.6 I've been experiencing extremely slow download from the store. Set up is as follows (with all the latest firmware and software upgrades done on everything)
     ITunes DB and XML locally stored on HDD
     Itunes Media Folder stored on NAS DNS-323
     DNS 323 NAS hardwired to network by 1000 Gb LAN Connection
     Cabled Internet connection at 60Mbps
There is no issue running Itunes from the NAS to MAC / APPLETV and other devices across the network wirelessly or hardwired, except when downloading purchases from the ITunes Store. One HD tv show takes 4 hours to download and averages 1Mbps speed.
     After running some test with various configuration it seems that the fact that the Downloads folder located within the ITunes Media folder (now stored on the NAS) is causing the poor download speed. When the Download folder is local on a HDD it's got no problem reaching 60Mbps.
     Unfortunately there is no way to tell ITunes to keep the Downloads folder local and the ITunes Media folder on NAS, it always stays within the Itunes Media folder no matter where this folder is located.
     Permitting Itunes to keep the Downloads folder locally while downloading files and transferring the files to the ITunes Media folder (wherever it's located) once it's fully downloaded might be the simple solution to this common problem.
     How about testing this out Apple!

I have some information to add to this. I've been seeing these problems for quite some time since I started downloading in HD. My library is rather large so I too decided to use another drive. My case is different though I have and extra 2 TB internal drive and my media folder is on it. This rules out all Wifi, network, or USB bottlenecks as a cause of the problem. I have noted a few oddities about this behavior and I will mention them here although I am not sure what they mean.
1. If I set up a long list of downloads it seems to crawl on all downloads. If I kill the "apple push" process the top two seem to speed up. I have to maintain the list and only enable two downloads at a time to get anywhere near reasonble speeds but this method is great for one or two downloads at a time.
2. I was curious about this problem after watching it download for hours on a 24MBPS connection for just a few shows. When I did yet another search I finally found this thread so I thought checking something out might be interesting. I set up some HD movies to download on my secondary system that only has one hard drive. Although not at full speed they began downloading much faster. Three movies are all downloading on the single drive system faster than the one alone on the system with the Itunes media folder on a different drive.
Both systems are hard wired to the internet.
Finding this thread made me very curious I was wondering if there would be a performance boost if I uninstalled Itunes, and re-installed it on the media drive. I really wanted that drive to be storage only but it makes me wonder if it would give different results or the same problem from not being on the OS drive.
Both systems are running Windows 7, and both are able to download streaming content, large files, or movies from other sites relatively instantly.

How to fix extremely slow printing from web pages with latest updates (iMac) & HP Office jet printer. (It was not a problem with earlier versions of Firefox & same computer & printer.)

The latest two updates of Mozilla Firefox are not useful for me because of extremely slow printing of web pages. It was never a problem before. Same iMac and HP officejet printer. How can I either fix it, or revert to an earlier version of the browser (without losing all my bookmarks) which didn't cause this problem?

Try scanning from your Mac. Use Image Capture app in your Applications folder.
Click once on the scanner on the left side, then click on Show Details along the bottom. Along the right side you will see LOTS of options for scanning and saving.

Extremely Slow Internet From Linksys WRTU54G-TM

Hi all,
I'm hoping someone can help me with this issue. I got the Linksys WRTU54G-TM for T-Mobile's @home service. According to the store employees, I should be able to just plug it in and it should work. I got it home, disconnected my old router (a Linksys WRT54G) and plugged it in. After a few minutes, the phone was up and working and sounds good; however, the internet coming off of the router is extremely slow (both wired and wirelessly). So slow that pages won't load. The title bar will tell you where you're trying to go; however the page will not load.
Before calling for help, I contacted my internet provider (Cox Cable in Phoenix) and verified that the network was working and that my modem (Terayon brand) was good. When I hook the modem directly to the computer I get my full connection (around 20 megs down). Then I called T-Mobile and was connected to Linksys since the router was connecting and providing phone service.
I spent an hour on the phone with Linksys. We flashed the firmware to the latest build, reset the modem to factory settings, reset the modem via the button on the back all the while power cycling the whole setup numerous times. The rep had me check some settings on my computer and I was able to ping from the cmd prompt. In the end, she felt that I received a bad router and said I should return it. She never mentioned cloning the MAC address; however, I saw that on the T-Mobile forums and tried it - no luck.
I took the router back to the T-Mobile store and the rep happily exchanged my router for a new one. I got it home, plugged it in and have the same problem. Phone works, internet doesn't pass through the router properly.
I went ahead and flashed the new router and reset it factory settings and that did not help (all the things I did with the Linksys rep with the first router). I'm going to be calling T-Mobile/Linksys again tomorrow but I wanted to see if there was anything anyone in these forums may know what I could try.
With the second router, I did try plugging it into my old router (modem - old router - new router), the phone worked and the internet worked (both wired and wireless); however, the internet is not as quick as going through one router and I do not want to have two routers set up.
Secondly, I looked at the configuration of my old one and set the new one to the same exact settings; however, one setting could not be matched. My old router is set to an operating mode of GATEWAY, the new one is set as ROUTER. The only options on the new one are router and bridge. Could this be the issue?
It was recommend on the T-Mobile forums to run a speed test and post the results, which I can do tonight after I get home from work.
I've searched these forums, Google, the T-Mobile forums, the Cox forums at dslreports.com, and tons of other places and cannot find an answer. Based on the size of Cox, it's hard to believe I'm the only one with this issue. Any help would be appreciated. I have until Sunday to return the router and cancel the service without any termination fees.

Try the following settings on the router...
Change the Wireless Channel to 11-2.462GHz under Wireless tab...Under Advance Wireless Settings,Change the Beacon Interval to 75,Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304.Under Security tab,uncheck the option "Block Anonymous Internet Requests "...Power Cycle the router and check..

Uploading from CF card to Bridge 2.1.1.9 XP PRO & VISTA

Hi,
I often have problems when uploading from the CF card. Sometimes many or all will not display in Bridge CS3. I can only open in PSCS3/ACR but when I click done, just an icon shows, not the thumbnail.
Most of the time another upload will work fine. This happens with different card readers and/or flashcards.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

You can use Windows Explorer, or some other program, rather than Bridge to upload pictures.

MacBook Pro Running EXTREMELY Slow (Information from EtreCheck attached). HELP!

Problem description:
I am having issues with my mac becoming extremely SLOW. I upgraded the RAM (Doubled it up) and it was working well for a while, but it’s now back to being extremely slow. I noticed the change when I upgraded to Mavericks. I’m still running Mavericks and haven’t upgraded to Yosemite yet.
What could be causing this to happen? SO slow and keep in mind I'm usually always multi-tasking when operating my laptop.
If you can offer any suggestions then please let me know!
Thanks in advance,

Your startup disk has no free space!

Macintosh HD (disk0s2) / [Startup]: 249.20 GB (3.71 GB free) (Low!)
You need to spend some time removing files you no longer need. I'd suggest you reboot & connect an external HD, then slowy start copying files off this Mac. You need to take care because the Mac can run out of memory & put you into a 'must reboot now' situation, don't forget to delete files once they are copied off the system. Reboot to keep the memory usage to a minimum.
You need at least 20GB free at all times to allow the Mac some breathing room for temporary files & virtual memory storage. More free space is better, especially on spinning disks.
There are many tips on this site for removing old files & finding large files or folders
http://pondini.org/OSX/DiskSpace.html (and search this site).
These two can also help to find large files & folders.
http://grandperspectiv.sourceforge.net/
http://whatsizemac.com/
See Király's post for a way to make these apps search all folders (by default it will be limited by your permissions).
drive space not adding up - deleted user?
Don't forget that certain apps have their own 'trash' so open iPhoto, iMovie or any other app that has it's own trash & check the built in trash is empty, otherwise the items in the trash will be taking up disk space.
I'd also consider removing any of the system modifications you do not use, like Blackberry's software, Citrix, Toast's extensions. Otherwise check that the installed versions are up to date & compatible with the OS. http://roaringapps.com can indicate if other users are happy with these apps on your OS.

Anyone experiencing extremely slow downloads from Apple?

For the past 48hrs or so I've been unable to stream or download HD Video from iTunes store or iCloud on any of my devices, Apple TV's or Computers.
Netflix, Amazon Prime, and other HD Streaming services unaffected. Internet up and running 45Mbps connection, working great. only thing affected is content from Apple, specifically content purchased and on iCloud. iCloud account fine, Apple ID account fine. Can access Apple.com, iTunes Store, Apple Store, Communities, and content, however, streaming, downloads extremely slow, almost unresponsive....
Is anyone aware of any slowdown issues, servers down, or other issues affecting access to content?
You know because Apple is always so forthcoming on these issues!
So far Ive found no mention of any issues in any of the communities....
Thank You.

Extremely slow uploads

Thought I would give iTunes Match a try. After enabling the service and running through the process I have about 1500 songs (of 20K) that did not match and need to be uploaded. Upload speed seems to be extremely slow as I have only uploaded 77 songs in the last 4 hours. At this rate it will take me days (weeks?) to upload this to the "cloud."
Any recommendations on what I can do to speed this up. My internet connection is normally extremely fast and is still pretty fast if I use an external browser. I am using iTunes 11.3 on Win 8.1.
Most of the older posts are pretty old and seem to be mainly complaints but I was hoping (against hope) that maybe something had changed.

What has worked for me is restarting the router and restarting Photos periodically. Once a day.
To see if you are making progress on the photos upload in more granular detail, I monitor the files that cloudd is accessing:
lsof -c cloudd | grep filecache
I run this in a loop:
while [ 1 ]; do losf -c cloudd | grep file cache; date; sleep 5; done
If I see the same file being touched for a long time, it may be a matter of just pausing/resuming, bringing Photos app to the foreground, restarting router etc ..
Running above will also show you if you are uploading videos which will take a long time depending on your connection

HELP: Extremely slow UPLOAD speed (Long Island, NY)

A little over a month ago, I signed up for the Verizon double play, home phone & high speed internet for $29.99. I have had nothing but problems since. I am on Long Island, NY.
At first, we experienced our home phone would not have a dial tone during a rain storm and the dsl would lose connection. After calling tech support, they sent a verizon tech to supposedly repair the outside lines.
Now a week later, I find that the internet speed is very slow. I am using a Westell 7500. When doing a speakeasy speedtest the download is 796kbps and the upload is at 75kbps or even sometimes lower at 20 or 10kbps.
Called tech support for hours and finally they sent a technician to the home to test the jack. He said it looked good and the connection speed was actually faster than what I was provisioned for. He came to the conclusion it was a defective modem. They sent me a replacement modem and I'm still having the slow upload problem. To rule out any wiring problem in the home, I even changed out all the old phone wire to new CAT5 wire, and this did not improve the connection.
Here are the Transceiver Statistics:
Transceiver Revision A2pB020b3.d20h Vendor ID Code 4D54 Line Mode ADSL_G.dmt Data Path INTERLEAVED Transceiver Information Down Stream Path Up Stream Path DSL Speed (Kbits/Sec) 928 448 Margin (dB) 8.7 14.0 Line Attenuation (dB) 63.5 31.5 Transmit Power (dBm) 16.1 11.9
It says the upstream is 448, but I never get anywhere close to that speed. My slow upload causes almost unusable internet.
I only have 2 phone jacks wired in the house and its all new CAT5 going to the NID. The NID is new, that they installed when I first signed up. One phone jack for the dsl modem and one jack for a cordless phone set. The dsl filter is on the jack with the phone and the computer is connected with ethernet wire to the modem router.
Does anyone know how this can be fixed? When I keep calling tech support all I seem to get is the run-around on hold for over an hour each time and they never fix anything. My thinking is it has to be something on the copper line outside.
If this is the service you get with verizon, I think I'll be switching back to cable if they can't fix this real soon.

An upstream sync rate of 448kbps will give you 390kbps of usable bandwidth after overhead. Figured I would get that out of the way for you right off of the bat.
I see you're subscribed to the 1Mbps provisioning as well. Your line isn't syncing correctly on the downstream, as the correct speed for that is 1184kbps. Get Verizon back out to get that improved, and we'll work from there to figure out the upload issue. If there is no issue with your line, ADSL2+ may work , Reach-Extended ADSL may work as well. Short of that, it's turning the speed down more than it already is due to distance if Verizon can't find a shorter way to the DSLAM.

Wrong picture number after upload from inbuilt card reader

My laptop is just three weeks old, but when I upload images from the inbuilt card reader, a number appear corrupt.
However if I open the images direct from the card they are fine... so it is the card reader itsself which is causing the problem.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Sorry but in my opinion this issue has nothing to do with the card reader
What notebook do you have and could you please explain exactly what happens?
As I understand your issue the picture number (pic name) changes if you upload the files to the card.
May I ask you what card do you use?
Does it happen with other files like jpeg, mov, doc, etc..

I have very slow uploads from the web.

Can yoou help me to solve a problem with my IMAC.
I am experirncing extremely slow download speeds when I go on the internet. The internet pages load very slowly and soemtimes not at all.
I have a PC in the same room (which I brought in for comparison) - it loads very quickly, so I assume that the problem is not withy the WI FI

What happens when you try wired?

Extremely slow upload speed on Airport Extreme

I've had a perfectly working Airport Extreme for about 3 years now and suddenly the other night it decided it would slow it's upload speed to a crawl. Speedtest.net gives me an upload speed of 15-20 Mbps download speed but a tiny .07 Mbps upload speed. I've been through the forums and ttried changing my Ethernet WAN Port settings to 1000 Mbsp and 100 Mbps instead of Automatic and I still have the same issue with 100 setting and it won't even connect at the 1000 setting. I've tried prior software versions (was running 7.6.1), restarting, and reverting to the factory settings and setting up a new network all to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!

I've been through the forums and ttried changing my Ethernet WAN Port settings to 1000 Mbsp and 100 Mbps instead of Automatic and I still have the same issue with 100 setting and it won't even connect at the 1000 setting.
Unless your modem supports Gigabit Ethernet connections then setting the WAN port on the Extreme to 1000 will not work. Have you tried both of the 100 Mbps settings ... i.e., both Full and Half-Duplex?
The key here is what may have changed between the AirPort and the modem that could have caused your upload speed to drop. Depending on the generation of your AirPort, it can support LAN-to-WAN speeds up to 400 Mbps.
If changing the WAN setting doesn't help, I would suggest two things: 1) Reset the WAN setting to Automatic, and 2) Perform a complete power recycle of your networking equipment, as follows:
I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize.
Power-up the AirPort base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes. Note: The AirPort's status light may continue to flash amber after it has intialized. That is because, there may be some additional configuration items necessary, like setting up wireless security, before the overall setup is completed to get a green status.
Power-up your computer(s).
If the above steps do not solve the problem, start over with step 1 above, but then perform the next steps between steps 1 & 2. above.
Disconnect the AirPort base station from the Internet broadband modem.
While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref:Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
Reconnect the AirPort base station to the Internet broadband modem. For the Extreme and Time Capsule, be sure to connect the cable to the base station's WAN (circle-of-dots) port.
Continue with step 2 in the first set of steps.
In this basic configuration, the AirPort base station will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name (SSID) of Apple Network NNNNNN. Network clients, connected to the base station either by wire or wireless, should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options. Please post back your results.
