Finder is very slow loading the content of Samba share folders

I'm accessing a Windows File Sharing folder on my home server using the SMB protocol. When I'm navigating through the folders in Finder, sometimes (most of the time) I have to wait up to 10 seconds until I can see the list of files in the selected folder. Also, there is no visual clue that Finder is fetching the file list, so the first time I got this behavior in Mac OS X Lion, I was thinking the folder was empty.
Even worse, when I'm copying some large files to the server, Finder is delaying the process of getting the file list more or less until the copying is finished.
Is this something I can fix? Or is it a known bug in Finder/SMB protocol implementation?
Thanks,
Stefan

Aperture very slow loading the next image...

OK, I've trawled the forums but I can't find a specific answer.
Firstly, I'm using a low spec iMac (2007 2.4GHz C2D with 4GB RAM, Radeon HD 2600 - 256MB VRAM on 10.8.2) but I'm not convinced this is the issue.
When I navigate through photos (Sony Alpha and Canon EOS RAW) there's a major delay of up to 20 seconds when the image shows "Loading" with a spining gear wheel-thing (not a colour wheel). The delay is worse on the 17Mpixel Canon files.
I've check what the activity monitor is doing during this and the memory seems fine, I still have over 1GB free and no pages in/out or RAM activity of any kind. The CPU goes ballistic - 180% on Aperture - it's really working. Given the file size/delay difference, I'm assuming the image is being generated with adjustments composited etc.
I thought the previews were supposed to address this by providing a cached image so my question is; is there any way of checking the previews are being accessed? I've deleted the previews from a selection, re-generated using a couple of size setting in prefs, they've been generated but still no speed-up.
I've also done a permissions repair both in disk utility and cmd-option launch of Aperture. No difference.
Thanks for any help in advance, Dave

I've also done a permissions repair
If you have a corrupted library the permission repair alone may not suffice. Have you also repaired or rebuild the library?

if that does not help, check, if you have incompatible video codecs installed:

I downloaded the latest version of adobe flash player 2 versions loaded and now it's very slow and the wheel keeps spinning

My computer is running very slow, and the colored wheel keeps spinning causing pages to load slowly. I recently downloaded adobe flash player. It seems 2 versions loaded. Could this be causing the problem? How can I uninstall these programs? Thank you

Adobe Flash Player
Check Flash Version
Adobe strongly recommends that you first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller:
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-mac-os.html#main_1 0_4
Follow the instructions closely, such as quitting ALL applications first before installing. Repair permissions and restart your computer after the installation is completed.

Firefox very slow loading most pages, sometimes error message :"can't find server for......." ....."

Firefox is very slow loading pages, some pages never load, sometimes error message stating "cannot connect to server" Router is not an issue I don't think as other computer connected to it has no problems. Used Malwarebytes to clean up problems, only 5 found. Internet Explorer does not have the same problems.

The default of the pref network.http.max-connections has been increased from 30 to 256 in Firefox 6+ versions.
Try to decrease the value of the pref <b>network.http.max-connections</b> from 256 to 30 as used in Firefox 3 versions.

W/ this latest version, getting MANY "the connection was reset" pages, plus VERY VERY VERY slow loading. I'm running Windows 7 on a new Dell. What is up w/ that?

w/ this latest version, getting MANY "the connection was reset" pages, plus VERY VERY VERY slow loading. I'm running Windows 7 on a new Dell. What is up w/ that?
I don't know how else to phrase that. I'm a pretty good user, but after defragging, backing up, and getting rid of a bunch of files that "may" slow down performance of firefox, the fact is, "the connection was reset" comes up five or six times a day--AND the browser is going slow as molasses. I haven't had this much trouble since before I got my new dell.

hello whatagem123, it is never a good idea to stick with outdated versions of firefox just for the sake of addons, as this will put the integrity of your system and your the personal data on it at risk - there are various [https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox.html known security vulnerabilities (some of them highly critical)] that were fixed in later versions!
so please [[Update Firefox to the latest version]] & [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/ update your plugins] (your java plugin has security vulnerabilities that are actively and widely exploited on the web).
afterwards i'd recommend resetting firefox - this will keep your bookmarks and passwords but will get rid of most other customizations. this might well fix both the issues you've described in your question...

My MacBook Pro is running very slow with the wheel constantly spinning. Can anyone please help?!?!

My MacBook is running very slow and the wheel is constantly spinning. It's not just using the internet as it takes forever to start, open programs, etc. It is even taking me a long time to type in this question as the spinning wheel keeps coming up. Below is the EtreCheck.   I would appreciate it if someone could please help me!

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can read it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Finder is very slow, particularly when using network drive

I have a mid-2011 Macbook Air, OSX 10.9.4, and Finder is extremely slow, particularly when I am navigating my Time Capsule. First, a little history.
I have tried the fixes listed in these three threads:
(1) https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3358265?searchText=finder%20slow
(2) https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1324280?searchText=Finder%20is%20slow
(3) https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5495797?start=30&tstart=0
Second, my Time Capsule is new. I bought it to replace a WD MyBook that used to work really well, and then something changed. Unfortunately, I assumed that it was some problem on WD's side, so after a year or two of waiting to see if either WD or Apple issued an update to fix it, I assumed it was some kind of file system incompatibility (or other interoperability problem) that wasn't likely to go away, and just sprung for the Time Capsule. However, after getting all the files on the Time Capsule, the problem remains. So here's a rundown of what I experience:
When I navigate the directories on my Time Capsule, if I haven't been in a particular folder, it takes a very long time to load the contents. On average, it will be 30 seconds, but it is not uncommon for it to be over a minute. This can happen even if a folder is empty or has just a few files in it. In addition, adding a subfolder and trying to rename it takes a very long time. After renaming a new folder, it can then take another full minute or more for the folder to actually show the newly assigned name and bounce into line in alphabetical order.
Here are some other observations. First, my connection is very fast, as I'm directly connected to the Time Capsule (albeit via wireless). Second, there is clearly something extra going on in Finder that is contributing to this issue, because I navigated to different directories using Terminal and did an "ls" command, and as you would expect, the list fired out virtually instantaneously. Yet, right after that, if I clicked on that same folder with Finder, it would take a minute or more to display the same file names.
Could it be that the Finder is doing other things at the same time as it is giving me a list of what is in the directory? For example, could the Finder be loading ALL metadata for each of the files into some database or index being built on the fly every time I pop into a new folder, even if I'm not using a view mode where I am asking to see those other bits of metadata? If so, that might make sense as I generally am using the network drive to navigate directories of my photographs, and they have a lot more categories of metadata associated with them than do Word docs and PDFs (e.g., date of picture, time of picture, aperture, shutter speed, exposure, etc.). Or, perhaps is Finder trying to load previews of ALL of the files whenever a directory request is made, so that bouncing through the previews takes less time? I sort of doubt that, because even after a directory listing finally comes up, it seems to churn a bit on each photo before the preview comes up, which I take as an indication that it's creating each preview only after a request is made for that particular file. Either way, I will say that in old WinXP and even in the newer Windows 7, if you want to view files in a Detailed setting where you can see other metadata (called "Attributes"), it definitely prioritizes giving you a directory listing, and then continues filling in the various selected Attributes one-by-one after that. Thus, if you want to sort by the date a photograph was taken (as opposed to its modified or created date, which seem to be default attributes that load as quickly (or nearly as quickly) as the filename), or by the photo's dimensions, it might take a few minutes to load in those attributes for a folder of a couple thousand pictures. But, critically, if you are not planning on using those attributes, but rather, merely want to see how many files you have in that folder, or select them all and load them into a photo viewer, you won't have to wait for the file system to load the file attributes before you get a listing of the folder's contents. It seems to me like the Finder, however, might actually be forcing you to wait until it has loaded all of those attributes.
Does the foregoing sound like a plausible explanation of the problem to those out there with knowledge of how Finder actually works? And if so, does that bring to mind any potential settings that could be turned off or any other work-arounds (since those I've tried have not fixed the issue)?
If anyone has other ideas, I am all ears. I am pretty annoyed that I sunk time into switching over to a Time Capsule on the assumption that Apple couldn't have had a bug this bad, only to find out that I was wrong. The biggest irony is that my old WinXP computer used to rip through the folder structures with ease on the MyBook, but my fully updated Air is practically crippled by the same task.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

Safari reading list prefers to load the content from the web

Hello to the community,
I am having trouble with using Safari reading list. It seems that my webpages do get saved in the list alright but anytime I have an internet connection, the reading list prefers to load the content from the web instead of the cache.
Let me give you a model situation: I am on 3G but currently over FUP so my data are slow. I have a webpage in my list. After opening it, it takes a very long time to open, very likely due to the currently limited speed of my data plan. However, if I turn the phone into airplane mode and try to open the same page from the list, it loads immediately.
Can anyone advice on how to prevent my phone from doing this?
Thank you.

Hi,
Firstly an external content type designed to work with SharePoint list and there is no way to read apart from this.
If you are looking the solution out of the " Business Connectivity" then find that data source has been exposed through WCF and Web Service ?
So you can use REST API and CSOM to consume those data in SharePoint.
You can also leverage the ADO.NET option if the datasources based on MS technologies.

I just purchased PSE 8 for my windows 7 and it will not let me load the "content" cd,

I just tried my new PSE 8 for the first time and it will not let me load the "content" dvd, it states that PSE is already running (it is not) and to close program and start again. Any ideas? This is my first time using any kind of video editing software also.

Photoshop Elements (PSE) doesn't ship with a Content DVD.
I think you're probably referring to the PRE Content DVD that comes with Premiere Elements (PRE)
The PRE User to User Forum (http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere/premiere_elements) may be a better place to post this question.
If you bought the Bundle of PSE and PRE it would have come with the PRE Content Disk, but the PRE Forum is still where you might find some help.
Cheers

Finder being very slow on user account

Hello,
I have a retina MacBook Pro with 16GB of ram. I am having an issue with finder being very slow on one of my user accounts, sometimes it is taking up to a 2mins to show the files in the folder. Also if often hangs and I get the beachball icon when clicking into folders and just using finder in general. This is on both local drives and network drives. I have 2 user accounts one for personal and one for work. My personal account has no problems and it is fast as I would expect from an SSD. My work account has all the same applications and I can't see anything obvious in activity monitor that would be causing it to be slow. I've thought about making a new user account but I would like to have all my settings etc the same as I have it set up just right now.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Andy

Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
First, empty the Trash.
Triple-click the line below to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
find ~ $TMPDIR.. $ -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl $ 2> /dev/null | wc -l
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "41." Please post it in a reply.

Copy in Finder is very slow

Hi,
I use OS X 10.8.2 here and file copy from a disc image to finder is very slow.
i can find this in console:
21.09.12 16:31:45,283 DiskImages UI Agent[1207]: *** -[NSMachPort handlePortMessage:]: dropping incoming DO message because the connection is invalid
21.09.12 16:31:47,510 Locum[1219]: Connection with distnoted server was invalidated
What's the problem?
When I use an other user on my Mac copy in Finder works fine.

Loading the Contents of a file into a JTable

I am trying to load the content of a delimited (tab, comma, etc), into a JTable. The code is very simple and works for the most part. Here is some of it:
               List tableRows = new ArrayList();
               String lineItem = "";
               InputStream in = new FileInputStream(fName);
               InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(in);
          BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(isr);
     while((lineItem = br.readLine()) != null)
                    if(x == MAX)
                         break;
                    java.util.List rowData = new ArrayList();
                    StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(lineItem, "\t");
                    while(st.hasMoreElements())
                         rowData.add(st.nextToken());
                    tableRows.add(rowData);
                    x++;
Basically, tableRows, ends up to be a List of Lists which I later use to populate the Object[][] for the JTable rows. This works perfect!
My problem has to do with the tokenizer. In some situations, values in a line that is read contains "". For example an line read (quotes are showed only to distinquish values in the line):
"item1", "item2", " ", "item4", " ", "item6", "item7"
The tokenizer does not capture the " ". So instead of 7 tokens, it only sees 5.
My question is, can someone tell me a better approach for tokenizing the string so that it captures everything?
Thanks in advance,
Augustine

HT1688 My iphone 4 is very slow since the IOS upgrade. What can I do to bring it back to the speed it was prior to this upgrade ?

My iphone 4 is very slow sine the IOS upgrade. What can I do to bring it back to the way it was before the upgrade. It's turtle speed now!

I forgot to mention earlier: if you find that on-screen typing is very slow to register then you might try logging out of iCloud and iTunes and the App Store in Settings/iCloud/[Delete Account] and Settings/iTunes and App Store/Apple ID [Sign Out]. Then reset the phone (press sleep/wake and home buttons together and hold until Apple logo appears), and then log back into iCloud and iTunes and the App Store in Settings again.

Updated to firefox 4.0. since then my computer is very slow accessing the internet, websites and getting information from within a website.

Over a week ago I updated my computer to Firefox 4.0. Since then my computer is very slow accessing the internet, websites and getting information from within a website. Also, a tool bar has shown up for YAHOO which I did not request. The old detailed tool bar for Firefox has disappeared. All that now shows for Firefox is the area to enter website urls and an area to enter topic for a Google Search.
Many times I have to exit Firefox and re-enter it later to access the internet.
Please advice what I need to do to get back to the speed I had with the older version of Firefox.
Thank You,
Dennis
