HT4628 my itunes update is taking a long time, so far over 10hrs, is this normal?

I have just started to update itunes to the latest software version and it is taking a log time, 10 hrs or more so far. Is this normal.
The blue update bar is compleatly full as if the upload is complete but is still running package scripts. Can any one advise if this is normal and i should leave it, or could there be a problem?
thanks

no, that is not normal, quit and try downloading again, if that does not work, trash the Itunes application, not any of the libraries, just the application and try downloading again. With a dsl or faster it should only take less than hour depending on your type of connection

Restore from backup of my iphone is taking a long time

Restore from backup of my iphone is taking a long time, so far about 12 hours! Is this normal?
I updated to ios5 and all seemed fine, later I realised that my music wasnt on the iphone, so pluged back into my computer and it said that the restore of the iphone had not completed successfully (or something along those lines). I went to restore from backup and selected restore from a back up of my iphone. All appeared to be going ok with the time remaining coming down to less that 10 seconds now for the past 11 hours it has been increasing and now the time remaining is about 17 minutes!
Anyone know whats happening? Or what I should do? If anything, or should I just leave it restoring??
Thanks for any help.

A bit late, but I wonder if a Reset would be enough? Or even just turning it off and back on?

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Update of latest ios taking a long time

I have the first ipad and am doing the update to the latest ios version through a PC. I am trying to install the download; however, it is taking a long time (more than an hour) and seems to be stuck on the backing up stage. I'm afraid to stop it because it took me five times already just to download the update (over an hour long each) before I realized that I needed to turn off my antivirus to have it download successfully. Now that it's stuck trying to do the actual update, do I try to stop it and start over or should I just let it run? Is there something else I should be turning off to have this run more quickly or successfully?

I finally decided to stop the install because it didn't appear to have any activity in the CPU. After doing this, it had trouble stopping as well and I had to force a shut down of iTunes. Then I had issues trying to rerun the install because it would tell me that it was having trouble starting a session for the backup. To resolve this, I deleted all the backups in iTunes and had to restart my iPad. After restarting, I was able to do a normal, manual backup of the iPad, so I then tried running the installation again and was successful.

I recently installed itunes update and can no longer connect to network nor internet

I recently (sept 2013) installed itunes update and can no longer connect to a network nor internet wired /wireless. I know it is not the gateway as other devices work. Please help. I am not very knowledgable so exact instructions will be most helpful.

Try connecting your computer/laptop directly to the base station with an ethernet cable to one of the external ports and install your network settings. If it finds it there, it will find it after you've reloaded your network info to the base via the Apple Utility. Hopefully when you disconnect afterward, all will be fine. Be sure not to select "closed" network although Macs will login with no prolem, PC's have trouble doing so even with the network data stored in the internet settings.
Good luck!

Issue in updating large number of rows which is taking a long time

Hi all,
Am new to oracle forums. First I will explain my problems as below:
1) I have a table of 350 columns for which i have two indexes. One is for primary key's id
and the other is the composite id (combination of two functional ids)
2) Through my application, the user can calculate some functional conditions and the result
is updated in the same table.
3) The table consists of all input, intermediate and output columns.
4) The only way of calculation is done through update statements. The problem is, for one
complete process, the total number of update statement hits the db is around 1000.
5) From the two index, one indexed column is mandatory in all update where clause. So one
will come at any case but the other is optional.
6) Updating the table is taking a long time if the row count exceeds 1lakh.
7) I will now explain the scenario:
a. Say there is 5lakh 100 records in the table in which mandatory indexed column id 1 has
100 records and id 2 has 5 lakhs record.
b. If I process id 1, it is very fast and executed within 10seconds. But if I process id 2,
then it is taking more than 4 minutes to update.
Is there any way to increase the speed of the update statement. Am using oracle 10g.
Please help me in this, Since I am a developer and dont have much knowledge in oracle.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sethu

I am trying to update my ipad mini but taking too long time 5 hours

Message was edited by: GOPAL DHRUW

You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists.

Why are my apps taking a long time to update both on my phone and iPad?

Why are my apps taking a long time to update both on my phone and iPad?

Hi ariasm21,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If the App Store on your iPhone seems unresponsive or app updates are not completing, try the steps below.
First force close the apps using these steps:
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app's preview up to close it.
These steps come from this article:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Next, restart your device:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Try updating an app again. If the issues persist, you may want to troubleshoot your internet connection next:

Attachments taking a long time to download

Hi, I wonder if anyone is experiencing the same problem. I've just got my iphone 4 and have noticed that when I download an attachment in mail it seems to be taking a long time to download. This is compared to my old 3g which downloaded them ten times faster when connected to my wi-fi. (granted, before i updated it to 4.0)!! Does anyone have a fix for this? Safari is fast compared to my 3g.
Regards, Andy

Once my iBook updated it take a long time to downloaded it

From iTunes store
My free iBook has just 13 mo and it took more than 10 minutes to get it frome iBook store
Is there a way to get it faster as it used to be before the update?

There are a couple reasons it may be taking a long time to start:
* Extensions may be slowing it down. Some, including antivirus toolbars, Browser Highlighter, and Skype extension are known to cause delays. See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]].
* If you are getting delays where the status bar says "Waiting for site" or "Connecting to", make sure Firefox is fully allowed in all firewall software. See [[Firewalls]]

I am just curious as to why this is, and what I might do to fix it. I did see one suggestion in another website suggesting diabling spolight indexing of the backup image with sudo mdutil -i off /Volumes/Time Machine Backups, but don't know where to type that in. It then states to reenable it, but don't know where to type that in, either. Any advice would be helpful. I did run a verification not too long ago, and here's that code.

10/14/12 4:04:31.602 PM com.apple.backupd: Backup verification passed!
If any of you have or had a similar problem, I'd appreciate your help. For the time being, I may just disable time machine during the evening, and only have it run during the day when I'm at work.

Is your sig still current (10.7.3)? Or did you update to 10.7.5? Because 10.7.5 had a Spotlight/Time Machine bug that slowed down a lot of backups. If that's what it is, there's now a 10.7.5 Supplemental Update that fixes the slow Time Machine problem.
If it isn't 10.7.5, I don't know what the problem might be.

My external library 100 GB on a 2TB drive is taking a long time to open.

Hey there,
I recently moved my library to an external drive. When I tried to load the external drive, it said it needed to repair and I let it happen overnight because it was taking a long time.
Now it seems to just freeze when I try to load the external library. Can someone let me know if there is something I can do to make this process speed up? Should I move some of my projects to another library and keep it off-line?
Thanks,
Austin

Could it possibly be due to videos stored in the aperture library? I think one of the folders has multiple GB of video... Just a thought.
If Aperture is freezing on opening, this can be caused by corrupted or incompatible media, but it would not explain the original error message your reported - "permissions".
When the repair finishes, try to launch Aperture with the Shift-key held down. This will defer the generation of previews. If media cannot beprocessed, Aperture will hang, when it tries to generate the previews for those images or videos. If you can get Aperture to launch after deferring the preview generation, you could open the Activity window (Window > Show Activity) and then selectively try to generate previews for your last imported images and videos (Photos > update preview). The Activity window will show, what is currently processed, and perhaps you can spot, which of the files is causing the hang.

Computer still taking a long time to boot

I have a late 2013 21.5” iMac (Model: ME087LL/A) with a 1TB hard drive (5400 rpm). I just switch from Windows to Mac, so I tried to keep everything as simple as possible on the transfer of files. I had only added Kaspersky Antivirus and Western Digital Tools.
Boot times and operation seemed normal so I transferred my music, pictures, and some files. My computer started running slow with just one user and started taking a long time to boot. I found that since I added about 24,000 pictures to iPhoto, the Mac was trying to send all these pictures to iCloud in the background. I stopped using iCloud for iPhoto and that seemed to speed up the normal operation once the computer is booted.
The computer still seemed to take a very long time to boot. It would now take 3 minutes to get from turning it on to being able to use Safari. I uninstalled Kaspersky Antivirus and Western Digital Tools using each company’s uninstallers so I know they are completely off the computer.
Any ideas on how to get back to the fast boot time? I am only using about 150 GBs of the 1 T drive so I don’t think that is causing the issue. What should I expect for a boot time on a brand new Late 2013 iMac? Or should I try to re-install Maverick and try to get a fresh start?
Any advice would be appreciated so I don’t feel like I made the wrong choice going to Mac. I'm kicking myself because the computer was so fast when I just got it.

Seventy one thanks for trying to help me out. I really appreciate it. Log is below. You are absolutely right. Kaspersky and WD look like they still have something (as well as google??). Is there anything else that stands out? How would I go about getting rid of them? Re-Install? Clean Re-Install?
