Files transfer slows down drastically after 362 MB
i tried restore and update itunes and approximately after 365 mb been transfered it freezes.
It's possible that your iPod's hard drive has started to fail. Take your iPod and place your right thumb on the centre SELECT button and your left on the top MENU button. Press down both thumbs for about 6 seconds until your iPod reboots. Immediately move your left thumb around to the rewind button |<< on the left and hold this down together with SELECT for a further 6 seconds. Your iPod should now switch into Diagnostic Boot mode. Press MENU for *Manual Test*, then select *IO > HardDrive > HDSMARTData* to reveal your stats. For comparison here are mine for my 2 year old 6th Generation Classic:
Retracts: 889
Reallocs: 12
Pending Sectors: 0
PowerOn Hours: 2202
Start/Stops: 894
Temp: Current 24c
Temp: Min 10c
Temp: Max 50c
Take a note of your results. When finished press *SELECT & MENU* for 6 seconds to reset the iPod again.
With modern disc drives sectors are no longer marked bad by a disc scan, if the SMART firmware detects a sector it has trouble accessing it will attempt to invisibly reallocate it to a spare area of the disc.
Note that I've only 12 remapped sectors and none pending. To help explain what the numbers mean here is an extract from the Wikipedia S.M.A.R.T. article:
*Reallocated Sectors Count*
Count of reallocated sectors. When the hard drive finds a read/write/verification error, it marks this sector as "reallocated" and transfers data to a special reserved area (spare area). This process is also known as remapping, and "reallocated" sectors are called remaps. This is why, on modern hard disks, "bad blocks" cannot be found while testing the surface – all bad blocks are hidden in reallocated sectors. However, as the number of reallocated sectors increases, the read/write speed tends to decrease. The raw value normally represents a count of the number of bad sectors that have been found and remapped. Thus, the higher the attribute value, the more sectors the drive has had to reallocate.
*Pending sector count*
Number of "unstable" sectors (waiting to be remapped, because of read errors). If an unstable sector is subsequently written or read successfully, this value is decreased and the sector is not remapped. Read errors on a sector will not remap the sector (since it might be readable later); instead, the drive firmware remembers that the sector needs to be remapped, and remaps it the next time it's written.
Large numbers of Reallocs or Pending Sectors would suggest your drive is failing and that you may need to repair or replace your iPod. Check your stats after another attempt to update your iPod. If the numbers increase that again points to hard drive failure. While it won't be good news at least you'll know it isn't some random software problem and you can decide what to do next.

Copying speed of files has slowed down significantly
copying speed of files has slowed down significantly
and if initiate two different copy processes then it slows so much that 1 GB data takes time like it was 15GBAgain, it depends on file types. Sometimes Apple files are not single files but packages of many smaller files, for example the iPhoto Library. Right-click in Finder, if there's "Show Package Contents", then it is technically not a single file.
For simple file transfer from one machine to another per USB drive, it can save some time to zip the data before and after transfer to and from the USB drive. -
What do I do when a file suddenly slows down? It takes 20 to 30 seconds for one sentence of text to slowly appear on the screen after I type it.
Problem is associated with one chapter (file) in a book of twenty. The other 19 are fine. Same symptoms when the same file is opened in another computer.
I tried starting with a new, blank chapter, copied and pasted the text and the problem reappeared.
I tried starting with another new, blank chapter, and retyped all the text. The problem soon came back.
I don't know if the problem is associated with a photo I place into the file, or with some text, or what.
Please help, very frustrating to not be able to work.
Thank you,

Slow down Database after upgrading to 10.2.0.5
Hi
I am having performance problems after upgrading to 10.2.0.5
At the beginning I thought the problem was sga too smalle ( ini: 598M , now 1408M ) but even after recreating the database with the new value the problem remains.
I am sending reports so that someone could give me an idea.
Thanks in advance!

System has slowed down considerably after updates from Apple. Is SyncServer the culprit?
I use MacBook with preinstalled OS Leopard since April 2009. I have also regulalry updated my computer system using the Software Update application. However, since my last update on 12th Aug 2011, I have noticed that my system has slowed down. There is long pause between every character I type, delay in switching applications, battery dries out quicker, slow response to every command.
I have started facing this problem after updating following software like iTunes 10.4, Safari 5.0.6, Migration Assistant Update for MAC OS Leopard & Quick Time 7.7 from Software Updater. Although, my OS is still leopard.
I noticed on the Activity Monitor that syncserver is using majority of my RAM and reappers even if I stop the process. Some of its subprocess like AddressBookSync also appears and consumes lot of memory. Is this the problem? Though, I never noticed earlier what size it consumed.
I use Microsoft Office suite for Mac and have also checked and deselected all sync services. Yet, the Process (PID 305) continues to appear in Activity Monitor.
I am no techie, and would appreciate quick help to resolve this issue.
Thanks!I was just about to write the same problem, but I don't have VMware; my laptop is late 2008 was running Snow Leopard (uptodate version).
I've scientific softwares so probably would require a clean re-installation of ML. I MUST MENTION HERE that those software which were written for PPC will NOT work on ML. Just found out that one of my important softwares version won't work on ML; need $500 to upgrade that software .
Therefore, I'd also want to know how can I go back to SL.
I'll let you know how clean re-installation has worked. -
Importing audio files without slowing down site?
Being new to mac and iweb, i have found that with my photo gallery web site that when i attach an audio file to play when a certain page is viewed that my site load time is dramatically slowed down.
Anybody know how to speed it up?The files used in those flash player examples are just the mp3 files from iTunes. You upload them to the Music folder on your iDisk (or to a folder on your server), copy the code from the demo page, paste into an HTML snippet, get the URL to each audio file and you;re ready to go.http://discussions.apple.com/images/status/ball-05.gif
With iTunes I suppose you could reduce the bit rate and sample rate to lower the file size but that will reduce the audio quality. You can do the same with more control with Audacity, a free audio editing application. If you take the time to learn how to use an HTML snippet you'll get superior results.

Screen Sharing slows down dramatically after RDP upgrade from 2 to 3
For some reason once we upgraded from RDP 2 to RDP 3 our Screen Sharing has gotten increasingly slow. We are using it in a school environment where the teacher will share their screen with the students, and as we add more students to the share the sharing slows down to become unusable. This problem is intermittent (otherwise I would go though the logs and run a control test), and has only started upon upgrading to RDP 3. Anyone else experience this behavior? I believe we are all running 10.5.x on the OS side.
I also know someone that is having this issue; it was fine with the previous ARD version they were using in the computer lab, but after upgrading screen sharing have slowed down. It's not really that of an issue when its just one computer, but when they put all 30 computers the FPS drops down.
Keep in mind that they were not having the issues before upgrading. I've also been told that, currently, they got a 5 MB connection. I ran a network test and everything seemed fine (or more like I didn't know what was going to tell me that something was wrong, but all the numbers were very low). -
HP ENVY Phoenix h9-1420t CT slows down 100x after 30 minutes of startup, requires constant reboot
Windows 8, now Windows 8.1 does the same. After about 30 minutes everything is so slow.
For example: at first start, start up Control Panel is less than 1 second. After 30 minutres, Control panel takes 1Min 45 seconds to open. A Internet Explorer search goes from 1 second to over 1 minute.
Control Panel shows less than 3% total CPU and only a fraction of the total RAM is used. There are no strange applications running.
Running Paid version of Kaspersky. Run Microsoft Defender - no virus or registry errors.
Twice HP support instantly determines (with no facts) that it is a "virus" and had me install the Windows 8 OS from scratch. This didn't change anything either time. I am a little upset at all that time wasted because it requires installing all of the updates, then MS Office 2013. That is all we are trying to use on this machine. It is not a gaming or web surfing machine. We can't use it for MS Office because it failes to respond after about 30 minutes.
I have updated all the November drivers for motherboard, drive and others listed.
I manage over a dozen computers, this is a problem for the HP Envy Phoenix since day 1.
We are holding off on ordering any more HP in 1 qtr 2014 if this can't be fixed.
We won't accept it has a virus again unless HP can at least provide some proof or reasonable instructions.
We are very open to getting this fixec, but have spent over 100 hours of time and lost huge productvity. Our employee is working on an XP machine so they can stay more productive.Hi Tesla3D,
One item of possible interest in your post is running both Kaspersky and Windows Defender.
You should turn off Defender in Control Panel.
That could be what is slowing down your system.

Macbook Pro slowed down drastically all of a sudden, Beachball constantly there
So, this morning I left my house playing a game of League of Legends and as soon as i got to work and tried to use my mac it seemed to have slowed down by 90%. Beachball there constantly as soon as I click finder, nothing loads for about 15seconds, beach ball continues swirling. Applications load up then if I hoover over one, beach ball appears again for 10 seconds. I have done a SMC Reset and PRAM reset and nothing has worked, I have killed the com.apple.finder.plist and it didn't help. Even when i go to top left Apple sign and click it, beach ball appears and I have to wait about 15seconds before the drop down bar appears.
Ive had Maverick for a while and nothing happened, im on a 2.5GhZ i5 4GB Ram Macbook pro 13"
It had first started when I used mail and i couldn't write because the text in a new email would only appear about 5 seconds after i typed it.
Now for example if I try using Safari it gives the beach ball every time we change a website.
I can't use any other apps, for example league of legends will simply not load.If you don't already have a current backup of all data on the startup drive, back up immediately. Then see below.

☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.

Editing: slows down drastically
Recently I am experiencing a problem that I did not have before. In Develop after I have made tens (or maybe hundreds) small brush corrections all of a sudden everything slows down dramatically. Feels like an overload, though I have a powerful desktop with a lot of free memory. LR5, Windows 8.
This is a known problem in Lightroom. Lots of brushing causes Lightroom to slow down. You would be better off doing the brushing in Photoshop or Photoshop Elements.

3 month old iMac has slowed down considerably after installing ML
I bought my iMac 3 months ago and installed Mountain Lion last night. Now everything on my Mac has slowed down considerably. From opening the System Settings to opening a page in Safari.
I have MS Word, Excel, Outlook and PowerPoint installed and also VMware Fusion. I have software (CorelDraw) that only runs on Windows (the one I have) therefor the virtual harddrive.
Is this what is causing the problem? If so, how can i uninstall ML to get my computer back to it's previous state.
I am very new to Mac so I don't quite know where to go and how to fix it.I was just about to write the same problem, but I don't have VMware; my laptop is late 2008 was running Snow Leopard (uptodate version).
I've scientific softwares so probably would require a clean re-installation of ML. I MUST MENTION HERE that those software which were written for PPC will NOT work on ML. Just found out that one of my important softwares version won't work on ML; need $500 to upgrade that software .
Therefore, I'd also want to know how can I go back to SL.
I'll let you know how clean re-installation has worked. -
USB File Transfer Slow after Update to 10.8.4
Tonight I had a strange expierence with my Macbook. I copied 6gb of video files from a USB drive while running 10.8.3. Transfer took under 5 minutes. About 30 mins later I updated the OS to version 10.8.4. Install seemed to go well and booted fine. I used the same USB drive to copy a new 6gb of video files (season 2) and the copy is taking upwards of 1.5 hours. Clearly something in the update caused the slowdown. Any ideas or similar experiences?
Choose one of the files of the type you want to open, say PDF. Then cmd-i (Get Info). In the "Open With" pane, choose the Application you want to use to open the file. Then click on change all. Do the same for TIF.

RV220W wireless file transfer slow at 2MBps?
I have a RV220W operating in 2.4GHz N-only mode. Channel bandwidth is set to 20MHz, channel to 6 (a site survey shows that channel as completely clear), WPA2/AES. I am connected to a TrendNet wireless bridge. The admin page for that wireless bridge shows a link quality of 100% with a signal strength of 71%. If I select a higher channel (11), the signal strength drops to 51%.
I have a Windows 7 PC connected to the Trendnet bridge and a Windows 7 server connected to the RV220W, both via a 1Gbps LAN port. When I transfer a file from the server to the PC or vice versa, I get a lowsy 2MBps (~20Mbps) transfer rate. That seems awfully slow. I tried channel bonding from 20 to 40 MHz, but that did not help. What could I do to improve this??Hello Awesterink,
Wireless is extremely subjective. To approach this, I would to break everything down starting at the basics.
Disconnect all wireless clients from the network
Remove the bridge from the network
Connect a single computer wireless to the RV220W
Connect from a close proximity of the router
Test the connection
Introduce more clients to the RV220W connection
Test the connection
Introduce the bridge to the connection
Test the connection
Test the connection through the bridge with 1 client
Test the connection through the bridge with more clients
Try to narrow down the break down as much as possible. For each change, test to see the result. Once you identify where things are bogging down, then we have a direction to go. -
