How long does it take to down load Firefox and how do I know it is down loading

I have tried to down load firefox and during the down load iot tells me it starts at 1 minute remaining and it climbs fro this to 3 hours and I cancel the down load. How long does the down load take and how do I know it is down loading?

WOO-HOOOOOO!  I got it all back!!  Yayyyyy! (jumping up and down).  You see, this is a picture file I've been working on for almost 15 years.
OK.  Here's the skinny... I finally got an appointment with the Apple Store to discuss with a technician.  He went through the same steps I did (C-Opt-iPhoto) and then trying to repair, then rebuild the folder.  He tried several other options, which I had also tried, thank you to the Community Discussion boards!    He kept puzzling over the icon in front of my " iPhoto Library.photolibrary ".  It had a blank document in front of it, instead of the iPhoto icon.  Even though I could pull up every one of my pictures via Preview, I just could not get them to upload or open in iPhoto.
He suggested I go back yet another day from the incident-day which messed up my library.  Skeptically, I did... (which I'd done quite a few times before).  EXCEPT.  This time, as I looked at my December 3, 2012 Pictures folder, there were some other files in it.  I had only been hi-lighting the iPhoto Library and trying to Restore.  You don't suppose...?  I hi-lighted everything in the Pictures folder, pressed Restore... and it started to transfer.  I waited perhaps 45 minutes.  (I had a 73GB file.)  But it restored everything - even the Events.
Crux:  If iPhoto doesn't seem to be able to Restore your iPhoto Library, choose ALL the files in your backed-up Pictures folder (not just the iPhoto Library).  The technician's clue to me was he didn't think some needed sub-folders got transferred.  He was right. The visual indication was, when I opened Finder, the icon in front of it was a blank document.  It needs to have the iPhoto icon or some needed sub-folder didn't get transferred.
I hope this helps!!
Thanks for all the support!

    long does it take to down load mavericks from snow leperd. The mini Mac has two gig of ram.   It's over two hours now.    I have DSL

    By cable standards it's not very fast. Assuming it runs at top speed with no hiccups at either end you can download about 650 KB/s. So, that suggests it will take a little over two hours. Of course transfers are rarely ever perfect, so could take more than two yours, realistically. My pipe is about four times faster than yours, and I've seen the download take twice as long as it "should."

  • What is the average duration of 1 full SAP life cycle or 1 end-to-end implementation. How long does it take to prepare DEV, QAS and PRD?

    What is the average duration of 1 full SAP life cycle or 1 end-to-end implementation. How long does it take to prepare DEV, QAS and PRD in any company?

    Anand,
    let me start with saying that the question you ask may not help you to determine the duration of your project. As Ryan and others stated the duration of the project is highly dependent on the scope of the solution you are implementing, geographical scope, amount of modifications/enhancements, number of languages, number of users that need to be trained, amount of standard processes customer is able to re-use in the implementation and many other factors (like quality of implementation contractor you will chose and availability of customer and implementors resources). I can probably go on for another couple lines, but I guess you get the idea.
    With that out of the way let's talk about some example implementations that will give you an idea - Ryan did great job outlining what I would call traditional approach above. I have couple examples where customers leveraged innovative deployment strategies that are available today. In particular the project teams leveraged pre-packaged services like RDS, World Template or Best Practices as their baseline solution and they built from there. Second acceleration technique customers now leverage is the deployment in the SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud to accelerate the time to initial setup of the system and thus move from traditional blueprinting to scope validation exercise that further shortens the time. There are other acceleration techniques we see applied in some cases like use of iterative implementation of the delta requirements on top of the baseline solution.
    Let me offer few examples to illustrate what I explained above:
    ERP implementation at Schaidt Innovations with 3 months long deployment of ERP solution using ERP RDS as a baseline (you can view their testimonial here - Schaidt Innovations: SAP ERP on HANA in the cloud - YouTube)
    Customer in Asia with global template deployment that leveraged SAP ERP for Manufacturing with deployment to cloud and 9 countries rollout (Japan, Korea, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, UK, Germany and US). The initial deployment took 4 months for first country and 2 months for rollout into the additional 8 countries - so total of 6 months. The original plan using traditional approach with full blueprint and heavy configuration was estimated to be more than double of the actual deployment time.
    There are many other examples where customers follow the assemble-to-order delivery model for their project and gain significant benefits doing so. I suggest you to review some of the recordings we did in 2013 about this approach and if you are member of ASUG review the Agile ASAP sessions we did for ASUG PM SIG.

    if you have recently bought an iphone on apple.com, how long did it take for it to deliver to your house? i know it says 2-3 weeks but does it actually take that long?

    Apple.com has notoriously given very accurate assessments of their ship dates.  Keep checking back there for updates.  The place to look is in the Store ... find the "Account" button near the upper right.

  • How long does it take it to be built and shipped?

    I'm waiting for a new Powermac for work and they tell me they ordered it 4 weeks ago...is this length of time typical?

    I don't know about the business ordering, but 4 weeks is an unusually long time. Most orders would go out in a few days at most, but it all depends on what options were ordered. When I ordered my G5 Quad several years ago, it was a 7 - 8 week wait due to the graphics card I ordered. I don't see any such constraints on the Apple store now for a Mac Pro (which is what I assume was ordered - PowerMacs haven't been made for over three years now).

  • How long does it take to fully sync Firefox?

    I just got a new pc and I am trying to sync firefox to transfer my data over from my old pc, but there's no progress indicator, no way to tell what syncs when, or anything. I keep checking for bookmarks, passwords, add-ons, etc. but they're either partly there or not there at all, what do I do?

    I checked the sync progress page, it showed me this: Your data is now being encrypted and uploaded in the background. You can close this tab and continue using Firefox.
    I also checked the sync log, which showed 3 error logs. I uninstalled and then reinstalled Firefox and I seem to have everything transferred over now.
    Would you know if the sync data stays updated and keeps updating automatically or do I have to manually sync?

  • HT1338 Free Mountain Lion request, how long does it take to get a response??

    Submitted my free request for software update to mountain lion yesterday, how long does it take to get a response, and where can I go to verify my request was received?/

    I called them after waiting 12 hours and they said up to 72 hours and there was no place to check things in the meantime.
    Their communication on this one is surprisingly bad, but apparently they have it under control. Time will tell. (It's now been about 36 hours for me with no code or confirmation email.)
