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.

  • 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.

  • HT1766 How long should it take to restore new iPhone backup from iCloud?

    How long should it take to restore new 4s iPhone backup from iCloud?

    That depends mostly on your Internet connection download speed, and how much data you have on the phone. It could take anything from a few minutes to several days. There is no "one size fits all" answer.

  • How long should it take to download an album from the store?

    I used to be able to download a whole album in a couple of mins but now it seems to take hours.
    I've tried pausing all tracks and downloading them one by one but that doesn't seem to help. I'm using the same internet connection I always have...
    Any suggestions would be most appreciated!

    vazandrew lists the necessary requirement for  near instant streaming.
    The reason is that itunes store content has a fixed size for an individual movie and does not degrade quality by using lower bitrates for slower connections.
    HD content usually weighs in at up to 5Mbps from itunes store, so a 6 Mbps connection can keep up with the video stream without stopping/starting.
    Any slower and AppleTV has to download part of the movie first - it calculates how much it needs to prebuffer in this way to allow the rest of the movie to load in the background as you watch - the calculation is based on the requirement to play without interruption given a particular sustained connection rate.
    For example on my 4 Mbps it may take 40 mins for an HD film to be ready.  SD will play almost immediately.
    As AppleTV has limited storage, using other features while waiting for a movie to be ready can inadvertently flush the part already downloaded necessitating it to start from scratch - there is no warning and I believe this is poor design when the connection is slow.
    You can alter HD/SD in Settings but it applies to the next rental made.  Oddly you may find more SD content as much available in SD is not yet available in HD.  AppleTV1 was mor sensible and listed all content SD or HD and if a title was available in both you had the option to rent either very simply without changing Settings.  This also explains why some movies cannot be found if you just look for HD because of the setting.

  • 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.

  • How long should it take to download Mountain Lion?

    How long should it take to download and install Mountain Lion?  I have been downloading it for about 5 hours and it still has 1 gig to go.  My current OS X is 10.7.4

    It depends on what bottlenecks you have interposed.
    If you have a fast Ethernet connection, not cable Internet, that is not throttled by your ISP, and are using fast Ethernet on your local network, you should be able to download in about an hour.
    If you are transmitting it over your wireless connection, it may take substantially longer.

  • 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.

  • How long does it take to connect to Wi-Fi the first time I use my Ipad? It's been over 30 minutes. I see that it wants to connect but it keeps on turning.

    How long does it take to connect to Wi-Fi the first time I use my Ipad? It's been over 30 minutes. I see that it wants to connect but it keeps on turning.

    It should not take very long. Up to thirty seconds tops depending on your Wi-Fi network.
    Try rebooting your Wi-Fi router. Turn off the router for 30 seconds then turn it back on. After the router completes its startup routine and indicates a good connection to the internet start you iPad again and see if it will connect.
    If you still have problems you might try connecting to a different Wi-Fi network. Maybe one at your local coffee shop or library.

  • Downloaded and installed os x yosemite and now mac book pro will not restart? How long should this take? Is there something wrong? Please helpthanks in advance

    MAc book pro. I have downloaded and installed os x yosemite now mac book pro will not start? How long should it take? Is there something wrong?

    The 2 computers here took about 45 minutes to an hour each.
    The best thing to do is give it more time. If it gets too ridiculous, shutdown using the power button and then restart. Check  menu/About This Mac to see if it is installed.

  • 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 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.

    Something have gone wrong somewhere.
    Try and reset your iPad.
    Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo.
