When starting up, you might see the Apple logo or a red or blue screen for a long time, or your device might restart again. Try these steps:
Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.

    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?

  • HT1202 how long should it take to sync approx 900 songs with my new computer

    How long should it take to sync my ipod to a new computer and how can I tell the progress it is making, looks like nothing is happening?

    It could take anywhere from 5 10 minutes or possibily longer depending on a number of factors, such as the amount of system resources available for syncing and how much bandwidth is available on the USB bus, etc. The best thing to do in this situation is wait it out for a while.

  • I am using a WD external hard drive for backing up my laptop with Time Machine, but I have to do it manually. How do I know when it has finished the back up? How long should it take?

    I am using an external WD hard drive for backing up my laptop. I have to do it manually, so I can't set Time Machine to just do it for me. How do I know when it is done backing up? How long should this take?

    Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it:
    tmutil compare -E
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    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 will take at least a few minutes to run. Eventually some lines of output will appear below what you entered.
    Each line that begins with a plus sign (“+”) represents a file that has been added to the source volume since the last snapshot was taken. These files have not been backed up yet.
    Each line that begins with an exclamation point (“!”) represents a file that has changed on the source volume. These files have been backed up, but not in their present state.
    Each line that begins with a minus sign (“-“) represents a file that has been removed from the source volume.
    At the end of the output, you’ll get some lines like the following:
    Added:
    Removed:
    Changed:
    These lines show the total amount of data added, removed, or changed on the source(s) since the last snapshot.

  • HT201376 I've erased and formatted the hard drive accordingly in order to reinstall OS X. everything went fine until about half way through the install. it just seems to stop. how long should this take? should i do something else to speed it up?

    I've erased and formatted the hard drive accordingly in order to reinstall OS X. everything went fine until about half way through the install. it just seems to stop. how long should this take? should i do something else to speed it up?

    About all you can do is wait until it finishes or you get an error message.

  • HT4718 am trying to install OS X Lion for the first time. So far it has been downloading for about 2 hours. How long should it take?

    Can anyone help please?
    Lion download to iMac has been running for about 2 hours and is still not halfway yet. How long should it take? should I cancel and start again?

    1500Kbs is 1.5Mbs. That is Kilo bits per second. There are 8 bits to a byte so if you divide 1500 (or 1,500,000) by 8 you get 187500 bytes a second. Divide 3.5GBs (3,500,000,000), that capitol B is for Bytes, by that 187500 you get 18666.666 seconds. Which needs to be divided by 60 to get the minutes and then again by 60 to get the hours.
    5.1851xxx hours.
    I use to have a 3Mbs DSL connection and it took me over 3 hours to download Lion. Now that I have a 19Mbs Cable connection it take about an hour to download and install.
    So wait it will happen eventually. If you cancel and start again your are still going to wait 5+ hours.

  • HT4859 How long should it take to back up iphone for the first time with about 6 gigs?

    How long should it take to back up iphone for the first time with about 6 gigs?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The first back up to iCloud may take some considerable time. Just how long isn't really possible to say without knowing how much is in your back up and your connection speed.
    What many people don't realise is that upload speeds are often significantly less than download speeds, so for example a user may have a download speed of 40 Mbps, but only 1 Mbps for uploading. As a rough guide it will take around 2 ¼ hours to upload 1 GB of data at 1 Mbps.

  • When my iphone 4s goes completely dead how long should it take to recognize the charger and begin to charge?

    when my iphone 4s goes completely dead how long should it take to recongize the charger and begin to charge?

    How do you know it is not charging? Do you see anything on the screen at all? Have you tried a reset? Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons until you see the Apple logo and then release. If the phone was completly dead, it may take up to 15 seconds or more for the Apple logo to appear.

  • 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.

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

    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.

  • 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

  • How long should it take to restore icloud back up to an iphone 5comments, how long should it take to restore icloud back up to an iphone 5comments

    How long should it take it to back up icloud to iphone 5c?

    The answer depends on the amount of data to be restored, the speed of your Internet connection, and wireless network conditions. It could take the better part of a day.

  • Ripping DVD's - How long should it take?

    How long should it take to rip a whole DVD? PQDVD seems the easiest, but it rips at 1x speed (or close to it). Are there programs out there that do it faster? Are there programs that are cheaper? $35 is a lot of money.

    I use DVD Decryptor (free) to rip the VCD files from the DVD.
    I then use Videora for iPod to encode them to MP4.
    Time for DVD Decrypt is about 15 minutes for a 2 hour movie.
    Time for Videora is about an hour and a half for a 2 hour movie (give or take a half hour).
    DVD Decryptor needs to be set to Not split the files based on size, and there is another tab that asks if you want to split the VCD files at all. Both set to none, find in the options screen.
    Good luck!
