Hanging and Very slow loading

Hello People,
Thank you in advance for your help. Im having a problem with my Mac, i have a top of the range 27" desktop mac and its approx 18 months old.
Recently i have a huge issue with webpages hanging on safari, Chrome and firefox. The pages will start to load and then about 1/4 of the way they just stop responding, sometimes for upto a minute or more. If i do something like send/receive on outlook it tends to bring them back to life.
I have a pretty decent internet connection and most of the time it runs fine. But on the odd occasion the above happends, i clear the cache and cookies on a regular basis, i did used to think it was to do with the browsers not liking it when they all work at the same time. (i sue different browsers for different things)
I also have problems with the spinning wheel, when typing an email in outlook for mac, or something in firefox all of a sudden it will just stop respondng and the spinning wheel will appear.
I try and keep this comp as clean as i can with nothing on the desktop, all folders neat and tidy and it has loads of memory left as i use external hardrives. i just can wor out why i get such bad performance especially with this web browser hanging issue, im trying to add/ remove prodsucts from e-coomerce sites and it takes 4x as long as it ahould because the pages just hang.
Apolgies for my grammar, spelling, punctuation. I have tried to explain this the best i can and your assistance would be greatly appreciated as this is driving me madddddddd!!
Thank you again
Ashley 

Yes i have tried those ideas, still no luck. It just took about 2 mins to open this page! So frustrating.
But thanx

  • Regular crashes and very slow loading of certain pages

    Basically, Firefox closes itself (crahes) VERY regularly; often after turning on the browser for less than a minute.
    Accessing my account information on play.com is next to impossible, due to a MASSIVE increase in loading times. Same for accessing any of my email accounts. Since this loading time is so large (anywhere from 1-10 minutes), it almost always crashes before the page loads.
    I have been using Firefox regularly ever since January and have NEVER had any problems or difficulties with the browser. Problems only began occuring since Friday 6th/Saturday 7th September, 2010.
    Also, these increased loading times are similarly affecting my other browsers, including Safari and Internet Explorer. If I try and download a new browser I get a message explaining how the setup has failed every time.

  • Premiere Pro CC locking up and very slow to load bigger projects

    I am having a problem with premirepro cc locking up and very slow to load bigger projects.
    Windows 8 machine

    I am having the EXACT same issue and now we are WAY behind deadlines.  We have Adobe for Teams on 3 computers, all are HPZ820, Dual Proc with Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2650 @ 2.00GHz, 32 GB RAM, Dual Video Cards Quadro 6000 4GB, Windows 7 64 bit with all the latest patches.  Everything worked on the first release of 2014 but last week there was an "update" to Premiere.  Since this update, projects work for a short period.  When you start a new project and add footage, you can scrub the footage and play the footage with no issue.  But the more assets you add, simple Titles, it slowly starts to fail.  Playing the timeline starts and stops and then finally the end result is you can't even play the timeline.  The Program window is frozen.  I have even tested starting a new project, adding assets one by one but no matter what, I get the same results.

    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...

  • Firefox 4.0.1 is constantly freezing, having to reboot constantly, and not responding to key strokes, and very slow responses to keys strokes and to change sites

    firefox 4.0.1 is constantly freezing, having to reboot constantly, and not responding to key strokes, and very slow responses to keys strokes and to change sites. Firefox 3.

    Do you have multiple keyboard layouts installed?
    It is possible that you have switched the keyboard layout by accident.
    * http://support.microsoft.com/kb/258824 - How to change your keyboard layout
    Windows remembers the keyboard layout setting per application and you may have changed the keyboard layout by accident via a keyboard shortcut.
    * http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/The-Language-bar-overview The Language bar (overview)
    * Make sure that you have the Language bar visible on the Windows Taskbar
    * You can do that via the right-click context menu of the Taskbar: Toolbars > Language Bar
    * Check the keyboard language (keyboard layout) setting for the application that has focus via the icon on the Language bar
    * You need to do that while Firefox has focus because Windows remembers the keyboard layout setting per application

  • 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.

    If You Think iOS 7 Feels Slow Here’s How to Speed It Up
    http://osxdaily.com/2013/09/23/ios-7-slow-speed-it-up/
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • Cd tray opening on boot up and very slow boot up, 5 mins plus

    Hello, very new to Macs, only had this a few days. G4 800 mzh 1.5 gb ram running os 10.4. Cd tray opens on boot up and very slow boot up. Tried resetting pram and fsck. No joy with either.
    Any help and advice much appreciated

    A warm welcome to Macdom & Apple's forums!
    You may need to reinstall some things, or maybe even the whole OS.
    How much free space is on the HD of what size?
    At this point I think you should get Applejack...
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596
    After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, then when the prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 5 of it's things.
    At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
    The 5 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
    Sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files!

  • Beach ball and very slow to respond IMac

    Each mouse click produces beachball and very slow response times -minutes, and some functions will not respond at all -Safari.

    Please confirm that you are actually on OS 10.6.2?
    And, which Mac model/year?
    Then please check how much of your hard drive space remains empty/available.
    And, lastly, check how much RAM you have installed.

  • Short Battery Life and Very Slow Data on 4S

    Short Battery Life and Very Slow Data on 4S,
    anyone else noticing the slow speed of data on this phone?

    Yes, I measure my slow data on Sprint in kpbs, not Mpbs. Like standard is download maybe 250kpbs, upload 100kpbs (that's 0.25 Mbps and 0.1 Mbps). On the same tower my buddy who has an AT&T iPhone 4 shows 2.5Mbps download and 1.5Mbps upload (that's 2500kbps and 1500kpbs), a LOT faster. Sprint has not been much help.

  • POP3 mail servers locking up and very slow!

    POP3 mail servers locking up and very slow! What is the deal with this? Verizon does not monitor these situations? Residential mail a low priority. Businesses run their own servers. Now we are back to having server issues again with Verizons Email? Last time mail was being delayed and now servers connect and lock up!

    FWIW I am not experiencing any slowdowns or lockups on email. I Just checked two of my Verizon email accounts and no problem. But it is almost an hour since you posted so maybe Verizon fixed something?
