Depends on your Internet speed. On my slow DSL, 1 Mbps, it will take weeks.

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."

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!

How long does it take to update latest Mountain Lion OS?

I have just updated my OS to the latest version of Mountain Lion. It is 10.8.5 now. however when it restarted, it stopped at the gray Apple logo screen and now the beach ball has been spinning for a long time. Is this normal? How long should I expect? And if not, any solutions to repair this OS?
Thanks
M

No, it's not normal, and may indicate the presence of incompatible software or hardware.
Read and follow all the instructions in the following: Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup
Please determine if the problems also occur in "Safe Mode":
Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
You must disable FileVault before you can start your Mac in Safe Mode.
Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
Merely starting your Mac in Safe Mode is not intended to resolve the problem, it's to observe its performance without certain additional components.
To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.

How long should it take iOS 6.1 to load on my iPhone?

How long should it take iOS 6.1 to load on my iPhone? It's been 3 hours and it is stuck in the same part of the download.

I now have the new phone. The order number is still not appearing on My 02.
It turns out that when I bought the phone, it was assigned a new sim card/telephone number. Now there are two phone numbers on my o2 account - the one I use, the one that came with the new phone.
The order number is appearing under the new sim card's phone number, not the one I intend to use.
Hopefully, O2'll be able to update the order and link it to the telephone number I use. It's not a major problem (at all) but I'd rather have it connected to the number I use than a random number that came with the phone.

HT4060 How long should it take to charge battery when it is all the way down? (I Pad 3)

How long should it take to charge I Pad 3 when the battery is all the way down?

That depends on a number of things, but using the power adapter plugged into a wall socket it takes my iPad 3 about 5 hours to fully recharge.

How long should it take too boot from cd?

Hello. I bought a new 1TB hard drive for my mid 2010 MacBook Pro and I wanted to get it up and running. It's currently in the computer installed, I've inserted my installation disk, but how long should it take for it to load? I tried letting it sit and load for about 2 hours but I got impatient and shut it off. I'm going to try to see if I see any changes if I let it sit over night. Right now, the grey apple is on the screen with the spinning gradient pinwheel. But on average, how long should it take? I also read that I should have my macbook plugged to my internet connection, so that's on there as well.

How were you booting from the DVD drive? Did you hold down the C key at startup? Try holding down the Option key to get a Boot Selection screen, Wait 30+ seconds for the DVD disc to show up and select it to boot from.
If when using the Option key you never get the install DVD disc showing up or after selecting it to boot from the system just sits there for any length of time, over 2 minutes, then your Supredrive is not reading it. This is a very common problem with the Supredrives. They seem to work for some things and not for others or they just fail out of the blue.
I suggest you go out and buy any brand External DVD drive that connect by USB port (That is Except the Apple USB External Superdrive as they won'r work on your model Mac notebook) and try booting the install DVD from that external DVD drive.

How long should it take a well-qualified server admin to migrate from Tiger to Lion...

How long should it take a well-qualified server admin to migrate from Tiger to Lion...
For a small company, if the Tiger server is running on a G4 Tower:
-Roughly 500GB in user files
-Data resides on old-school ATA drives
-OD Master - Kerberized
-AFP
-Mobile Homes
-DHCP
-DNS (for 2 domains)
-FTP
-iChat
-Mail (non SSL)
-NetBoot
-Print Server
-SWUPD
-VPN
-Hosting website using MySQL
-User & Computer Management
Considerations/Hurdles/Challenges:
-Tossing old G4 into garbage, upgrading Mini client to Snow Leopard, adding Lion iMac client to the LAN
-Fresh OS installs on the Mini and iMac
-Upgrading from CAT5 to CATE on the LAN (not it the walls - just loose cables)
-All new hardware must be sourced out (take some time to price compare)
-Must find a way to transfer data from ATA drives to SATA drives or Lion Server
-Company must not have any email downtime (MX Records to be modified on DNS Providers site)
-Servers hostname goes from "companyserver.company.com" to "server.company.com"
-ISP blocks some SMTP ports
-DNS Provider doesn't support TSL/SSL SMTP
-Implementing a switch into the network
-Implementing a new router (for firewall and NAT) from ISP
Upgrading to Lion Mini Server
-All the same services
-Using SSL
-Implementing Mobile Device Enrolment and Deployment
That should just about cover it. I'll add any other details/hurdles as they come to mind.
Can you guys give me your best guesstimate as to how many hours you think this job should take? I'd appreciate any feedback as to how long you guys think it'd take you to make this transition. I'm trying to plan, and we're going to be down-and-out, the boss NEEDS to know for how long.!
Thanks in advance guys!

It's about a gigabyte, so if you have a slow connection, it might take some time.
But - you shouldn't be getting the beach ball - that's a different thing.
Can you do open Activity Monitor, or is it stuck completely?

How long should it take for the iOS 5 iPhone software to update? Mine is taking a ridiculous amount of time, to the point where I need to stop it as i need to go out and need my phone !

Depends on how strong your wifi connection is.
you can try a reset hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release.

Restore Ipod? How Long Should This Take?

I received my replacement iPod back from Apple this afternoon. As a Windows 2000 user, I followed the instructions provided to reset the iPod for Windows. Namely to install the latest updater, restart PC, run updater... connect iPod and select Restore when the box became available.
The message then popped up saying Your iPod has been restored to factory settings and is restarting. Please leave the iPod connected and wait while it completes the restore process.
Just how long should this take? I hit restore at 14:15pm UK time, it's now 22:15 and it's still sat there with the same message, iPod blinking Do Not Disconnect and seemingly nothing else happening. Should it be restarted by now?
If it helps, am running Win 2000 SP4, used iPod updater 11-17-05, PC has 192mb RAM and is PIII 600Mhz.
Any help/advice greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
I clicked the X. It told me application couldn't be cancelled. Shut down PC anyway. Disconnected iPod. Apple logo shows up. Battery charger image shows, so I connected it to the mains charger... it sat there, thought about it and told me it was fully charged! Is now sat here quite happily accepting tunes from my iTunes library!
Thanks ever so much for the help, really appreciate it! Going to work tomorrow will seem more worthwhile having music to listen to!

About how long should it take to process a 1:40m movie in iMovie 11?

about how long should it take to process a 1:40m movie in iMovie 11?

Hi
And the free space avail. on the Start-Up (Macintosh HD) also play an important role.
For interlaced SD-Video Quality (as on old fat TVs) - I never go less than 25Gb free space (per hour Video)
For HD - about 4 - 5 times more
If strange Video-Codecs - that might need lot's of conversions to be used - then multiply with 2 - 3 times more and Hope.
I make the conversion of raw material first outside iMovie to make things easier.
TO GET IT TO WORK SLIGHTLY FASTER
• Minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-Up hard disk
• No other programs running in BackGround e.g. Energy-Saver
• Don’t let HD spin down or be turned off (in Energy-Save)
• Move hard disks that are not to be used to Trash - To be disconnected/turned off
• Goto Spotlight and set the rest of them under Integrity (not to be scanned)
• Set screen-saver to a folder without any photo - then make an active corner (up right for me) and set pointer to this - turns on screen saver - to show that it has nothing to show
• No File Vault on - Important
• NO - TimeMachine - during iMovie/iDVD work either ! IMPORTANT
• Lot's of icons on DeskTop/Finder also slows down the Mac noticeably
• Start a new User-Account and log into this and iMovie get's faster too - if a project is in a hurry
• And let Mac run on Mains - not just on battery
Yours Bengt W

I have 8kb on a vcard. How long should it take to import that vcard into the icloud

I am trying to load my vcard to the icloud website. it says that it is importing but how long should that take? the vcard is 8kb in size

unless you have a huge mail store that is way to long.
Might be a corrupt PST file. The import locks when one of those is encountered.
