FF opens ok but why does it take so very long to load my home page.I have new laptop,windows 7.

FF opens ok but why does it take so very long to load my home page.I have new laptop,windows 7. Can anyone suggest a solution please.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== yesterday for no apparent reason.

I had this problem once before, And now again.
The only thing I did different, was Instead of shutting down my computer, I click on Log off User.
Ever since then I have noticed windows XP is taking longer to load, and so is Firefox.
Hope this clue helps.

  • Why does TestStand take so much longer to load a Vi from a LabVIEW prject than calling directly?

    I have done some tests where the same VI loaded from a LabVIEW project takes much much longer to load in TestStand vs calling the VI directly. The project file I'm using is large, and am guessing it tries to load all the files in the project into memory?? Any ideas on how to fix this? I would like to continue calling VI's using projects in TS but the load time can be ridiculous. Thanks

  • Why does it take a very long time for shows to post to VOD?

    A lot of programs say they will be on demand the following day. This isn't true. Seems you have to wait a week or longer for shows to post. Why? Comcast would usually be by 4:00 PM the following day. When you miss something and want to catch up on it you  have to wait, and then the next show is already being shown by the station. It's a pain. I know I can get a DVR but that costs more $$$. If you advertise your VOD to be current then be current.

    Since the Verizon Forums are for users to help other users, I doubt you will get any definitive answer. We customers simply do not have access to any information on how Verizon handles VOD.

  • Why does it take me so long time to migrate from my old Mac

    Why does it take me so long time to migrate from my old Mac?
    I just bought a new MacBook Air and using an ethernet cable to migrate all material from my old MacBook Pro, it has now taken med 4 days
    and still not done? What am I doing wrong?

    Thanks for that gbrenik.
    Don't really wanna start reloading all of Lion, but read somewhere that I should start the migration by restarting my source Mac by holding down T during startup, that would do the trick. Is this what I  have done wrong?

  • I am migrating from my old black MacBook to a new MacBook pro over wifi but why does it take SO Long...?  I have about 400 gig to transfer and it says 80 hours!  Can this be right?  Is there a faster way?  Is there a way to cancel the migration?

    I have an old black MacBook (2006) and want to migrate to my new MacBook pro i7. The migration assistant offered me the prospect of migrating via wifi.  Stated at 108 hours to transfer about 400 gig. Now revised down to 85 hours. Why is this so so so long??  Is there a faster way?  What happens if I cancel now.  Is there a way to cancel? As there is no cancel button....
    Ay suggestion sighing the next 80 hours very much appreciated.

    The 2006 MacBook has firewire. Use a cable like this. Boot the '06 with the T key held down until you see the Firewire icon. Connect the 400 port on the '06 to the 800 port on the i7. Run Migration Assistant. 400 GB will still take a long time, but it will be closer to 8 hours I think.

  • Why does my ipod touch 4gen keeps going back to home page when browsing on the apps store

    Why does my Ipod touch 4 generation keeps going back to home page when browsing in the apps store.
    I called apple 5 times today and asked me to restore it 3x the problem still exists. This problem starts to occur yesterday after upgrading to IOS6.
    Apple customer service is not good enough as they cannot fixed the problem or tell me that I can change the unit as I just bought this 2 months ago.

    Because there is a bug in iOS 6 that effects the 4G iPod touch.

  • Can't access my home page on my new laptop, but it still shows up on my old one..

    I recently bought a new laptop and installed Firefox on it as my default browser. Now when I open Firefox on the new laptop and click on the "Home" icon, I can't access the "customized" homepage that I originally designed when using my old laptop. When I open Firefox on the old laptop and click on the "home" icon, it still brings me to the old, customized homepage. What's going on?

    You may need to redo that customization on the new computer. Such a customization is usually stored in a cookie on your computer if it is not stored on the server itself (attached to a user account).

  • Why does it take so much longer for applications to launch under lion as compared to snow leopard

    I have two iMacs one which cannot run Lion and one which does.
    Launching applicaitons under Lion takes a measurable amount of time longer to launch under Lion than they do under Snow Leopard.
    The Lion machine is newer, faster and larger than the Snow Leopard machine - 4 cores vs 2, however, every time I launch an application, such as Safari or Text Exit as two examples, the Lion machine just cranks and cranks (you can listen to the disk drive).
    Text edit is particularly rediculous. If I try to open a text file, either for the first time or one which has been opened by text edit before, I am greeted with the sound of the disk drive and the spinning beach ball.
    All hardware diagnostic tests pass with flying colors. Or so it appears as no errors or abnormalities are reported.
    This effect has been in place since the lion machine arrived (which was "factory installed" with Snow Leopard and then upgraded over the net to Lion).

    That is not normal, but what is going on is hard to say without some testing.  It could be cache-related, if you've gotten some corruption in some important caches.  Try getting a copy of OnyX and clearing caches.  (Note that cache clearing should be considered a troubleshooting step only...  don't use such utilities for routine maintenance.)
    You could also have a dying hard drive.  That would not necessarily show up on hardware tests.  Sometimes drive failures show up in advance in hardware tests or SMART status checks, and sometimes they don't.  That could explain the excessive hard drive thrashing.  If this is the problem, there may not be any reasonable solution until the drive finally goes kaput, or decides to change to a detectable imminent failure.
    There could also be any number of other problems, such as low RAM, hard drive directory corruption, incompatible third-party software, etc.  Try some of the techniques in the Mac OS X Speed FAQ.

  • When I open a saved document in pages, then close it right away without making any changes, why does it ask if I would like to save the page or all new info will be lost?

    I have a few saved documents and when I open them to view them quick, sometimes when I close it, I will get asked if I would like to save the document or all my new info will be lost. I didnt change anything so Im not sure why it asks me that. When I open the document again, all the info is there and nothing is different. Thanks

    Unless they were Word documents, Pages has done nothing really, but it is updating date information in the file.
    It is annoying but just ignore it and don't save.

  • Why does it take Firefox several minutes to load all wesites including its own?

    Opening Firefox may take minutes. Or if opens it takes minutes to access Google. Or if that opens minutes go by before the NYTimes site opens. Often a window from Firefox appears: "This is embarrassing." Three options appear: restart,check for errors, close program.

    It sounds to me like the installation didn't perform correctly.
    What I suggest you do is to go to Add/Remove Programs and uninstall it, but don't checkmark the option to remove your bookmarks, customizations etc.
    Before you do that though, go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/?ref=logo Download Firefox 4.0] and download a fresh installation file.
    After you uninstall the existing installation, reboot.
    It's also wise to disable your AV before installing again. If you've got AVG, this is particularly difficult because it doesn't have an Exit option. Instead, you have to open MSCONFIG and remove the checkmark from '''AVG Watchdog '''which disables everything. Any changes to MSCONFIG requires a reboot I regret to say.

  • Why does firefox take uo to 20sec to load on startup

    when i switch on my pc and click onto open firefox it can take up to 20 secs to open, this has only occurred over the past 4 updates

    Did you disable all the extensions before restarting?
    If it works in Firefox Safe-mode then disable all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
    Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    In Firefox Safe mode these changes are effective:
    *all extensions are disabled
    *the default theme is used (no persona)
    *userChrome.css and userContent.css are ignored
    *the default toolbar layout is used (localstore-safe.rdf)
    *the Javascript JIT compiler is disabled
    *hardware acceleration is disabled
    *plugins are not affected
    *preferences are not affected

  • Why does exporting take so much longer than in FCP7?

    With the same computer configuration I am getting three times the rendering time with I go to either the projectings settings defualt or h.264. Nothing had been background rendered but it was never in FCP7 either. It seems like any text or other overlayed graphics are really slowing this process down. Thoughts?

    That is not normal, but what is going on is hard to say without some testing.  It could be cache-related, if you've gotten some corruption in some important caches.  Try getting a copy of OnyX and clearing caches.  (Note that cache clearing should be considered a troubleshooting step only...  don't use such utilities for routine maintenance.)

  • The initial use of firefox was really fast. Why would it slow down? Takes way too long to load a web page.

    After adding bookmarks from IE it seems to have slowed down considerably.

    I don't have any netflix add ons or extensions installed. I only have necessary plug ins installed. I have turned off all add ons and restarted so this issue is not related to an add on, plug in or extension. I also can rule out my dsl provider as I have hooked my pc up to other family members connections with the same provider on the same server and it did the same thing, However their pc has no issue. I have taken my pc to 3 technicians and there are no problems they can find with my registry or any infections or spyware. The PC does the same thing on their connections.All hardware passes every test they can throw at it. I have tried other browsers and reinstalling this one as well and the same thing happens. This really is mind boggling. I have ATT/uverse beta 6.0. There should be no delay in starting up my browser. After startup, it works great no problems but the speed starting up is on par with old fashioned dial up right now. I have 3 gigs of ram available and I have 85 percent capacity left on hard drive , processor speed of 3.4 with dual core processor. Makes no sense at all.
