Web pages load slowly using Safari, Firefox, and Chrome.

Web pages are loading slowly now on my mid-2008 iMac 2.66 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo.
Doesn't seem to matter if I use Safari v5.1.10, Firefox v29.0.1, or Chrome v34.0.1847.131.
Problem started about a week ago mostly with YouTube but now I have issues with almost all web pages loading slowly, including this one.

Try resetting both your Intenet MODEM/Router by unplugging them, waiting 15 to 20 seconds then plugging them back in.

My MAC has gotten very slow. Pages load slowly. How do I fix this?

My MAC has gotten very slow. Pages load slowly. Multi colored disc appears on screen at times. (like the hour glass on PC's) Anyone know how to spped it up like it was new? , at times not at all.

Examine this comprehensive trouble shooting article:

Usually the Hard Disk Drive is the problem area.

Pages loading slowly

I've had issues off and on with my Mac and the internet. I recently installed a new router(Monday) and all seamed great for the first day or so. On Wed I was having internet access problems AGAIN, ugh! I re-set the router and cable modem and it worked OK for a few hours and then Wed night it wouldn't connect to the internet again. The Mac was telling me I was connected to the network but Safari would not load internet pages. So I disconnected the router and went straight from the Modem to the Mac. Now it works, but its very slow. When I click the Safari icon, it takes 5-10 seconds to load my home page and typically 5-10 seconds to go from site to site. This sort of activity used to only take like a second, moving from page to page was almost instant. I'm trying to figure out if this is my cable modem or my Mac or my router or what? I've tried to re-set the modem a couple times and Safari is still acting this way.
So, how do I diagnose this problem? Is there somewhere I can look in the Mac system to let me know if connections are all working and what strength signals its receiving and all that?
When I go into "system preferences" and look at network it says "ethernet connected" and shows an IP. Beyond that, I'm not sure what I can look for.
I know "PC's" need to be "defragmented" and "cleaned" from time to time, do Macs have a similar function that needs to be done to maximize its operating ability?
Any ideas would be great.
Thanks!

Previous suggestion did not help.
I have tried to run "verify permissions" and "repair permissions", doesn't seam to help. I have re0set Safari several times to get rid of "cookies" and "cache". I tried calling Comcast to see if there were internet issues and by all their checks I have a great signal.
Still having issues with pages loading slow and big problems when I try to use a wireless router.
Comcast tech mentioned since my system is about 6-7 yrs old and only has 2GB "memory" or "SDRAM" it may be slow because my system and all my "programs" or "applications" may be using too much RAM now causing the internet pages to load slow. Does this even seam logical or possible?
The only new things I have done since I installed the router on Monday were I connected my new Wii to the router and I upgraded FCE. I have since disconnected the Wii (thinking maybe that was slowing it down). So the only big program I have even added in the last couple weeks since my problems have been getting really bad is FCE. Could this really be slowing it down this much? Plus I didn't notice a slow down until Thursday and FCE had been on the computer for a week?!
Do I need to just take the computer to the Apple store and have them go through it? Would that help? Is it worth it?
I have no idea why all of a sudden I get slow internet and have all these problems when trying to connect through a wireless router?
Any thoughts?

Web pages load slowly or not at all.

At least half the web pages I try to access load slowly or not at all, especially those I am accessing for the first time. This problem has been getting worse over the past few months. I ran the Wireless Diagnostics test, and it said there didn't seem to be a problem. I am using a Belkin G Wireless Router, and only use the MacBook Air at home. The PHY Mode is 802.11g. What should I do?

Try going to Speedtest.net (if you can ) and see what your speeds are. If they seem fine then try turing off or resetting your router. If that doesn't work it might be something with the Wi-Fi antena within the MacBook Air. Try connecting it via Ethernet.

Internet page loads, audible buzzing ...

Hello All,
My iPhone on-board speakers have started emitting a strange buzzing sound as the phone loads an internet page. I've rebooted the phone but still the sound persists.
Once the page is fully loaded, the buzzing stops.
Is there a short in the system?
sp

You're welcome.
The grill opposite the speaker that appears the same is the iPhone's microphone.
Are you still in the country or elsewhere now? If elsewhere, are you experiencing the same?
What was your cellular reception at the time while in the country? Not sure if this would make any difference, but it might.
If the same occurs no matter your location, try powering your iPhone off and on and/or try doing an iPhone reset, which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release - ignoring the slide to turn off prompt when doing so.
I haven't experienced the same regardless my location or my cellular reception at the time.
If this continues regardless your location at the time and you are in the U.S., you can call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.

Pages load slowly - image resolution probs?

i suppose the answer to this is pretty obvious but i'll ask anyway...
my iWeb pages load a bit slowly, and on my iPhone some of them don't even finish loading - they stop before they're done.
i've just checked some of the images - typically they are about 250 pixels square or so and most say they are transparent gifs, and are 43 bytes.
a few are jpegs and are 9000, 12000 or even 15000 bytes. i guess they are the problem?

A 15 kb image file is not very large by any standards. The site loaded quickly for me. However, I have a very fast cable connection. What sort of connection do you have? The largest file on any of the pages is the background image at 316 KB and is the one that seems to load last in any of the pages. You might try optimizing it. Although that's not really big either but could be reduced in file size with some optimization. The welcome site has 36 files it has to load. You can see what they are by bringing up the Activity window in Safari under the Window menu. I took the background image and optimized it in Photoshop and got it down to 72 KB from 416. You can download it by clicking here. It will download as a zipped file so you'll need to unzip it. Give it a try and see if it will improve the load time for you. It's the same for all pages.
Wyodor speaks very highly of Web Site Maestro, a site optimizing program. It has a demo mode that lets you optimize 50% of the files in a site. You might give it a try.
Looks like a terrific house. Wish we had know of it back in 2000 when we stayed in Malaga for a week.

IWeb Pages Load Slowly in Browser

Even since the 1.0 version of iWeb, I noticed that the content rich themes resulted in very slow page loads. So, I decided to choose the most minimalist theme possible -- Modern. Even with the latest version, I still notice that the pages created load quite slowly. Here's a simple page with just a few elements on it:
http://web.mac.com/resourcesforlife/journal/
The various layers load at different times, so rather than text appearing on a page, the text appears without a page and then the image layer of the paper shows up later -- kind of ruining the effect of text on a paper.
Previously, the blog directory (main page) would load at an average speed. Now it seems even slower. There are some kind of white borders being placed around the images and this takes a while to apply. I didn't notice these prior to the 2.0 version of iWeb.
So, in general, the density of coding on the pages and inefficient design of the pages, seems to cause them to load slowly. This is a similar problem to what I've heard about with people using Microsoft Word to create HTML pages. The code ends up being very complicated and takes a long time for the browser to interpret. So, many people use programs like Dreamweaver to create the cleanest and simplest code possible for their pages allowing them to load quickly.
Another example of an unnecessarily slow page is my blog archive. It's just text. When it generates, it almost seems like the server is creating the page using a MySQL engine or something like that. One would think that the archive page might be generated into clean HTML at the time of publishing. I looked at the source code, and it isn't pre-generated using basic HTML. It's calling up Java Script routines to generate the page:
http://web.mac.com/resourcesforlife/journal/writings/Archive.html
Any thoughts on this topic?

How weird, but cool! It's too bad iWeb isn't as smart as you are. Since the site generates much of the coding on the fly at the time of publishing to the web, you would think it could think of a smarter way (like the one you've presented) to generate the page image. For example, the text I typed in on the little notepad begins as me typing text. It ultimately ends up as a graphic image created by iWeb when publishing. So, why not just make the entire page a relatively compact JPG image?
Your suggestion would work great if I wasn't planning on changing the content of my main opening page.
I noticed if I used the fun handwriting font along with others in the same text box, that the entire text box became hundreds (like 300) different images representing the separate text and links on the page -- super inefficient. So, I ended up using the fun handwriting font in a separate text box that gets converted to an image and then another text box of Arial font text:
http://web.mac.com/resourcesforlife/journal/topics.html
So, that works on those pages. But I wanted the main page to look nice. Oh, also, some of the elements on the page are links. The movie tickets link to a certain page, for example. So, I'd need to create hotspots in the jpg image to accommodate for that.
In any event, I'm still going back to mark this question as solved because I think for most people's situations it would be with the suggestion you made -- use iWeb to design the graphics of a page, and then save it as a JPG.
I suppose I could also use Pages or Keynote to do the same. Once an entire web page is a JPG image, it doesn't matter how it was created.

SLOW INTERNET PAGE LOADING

Hi, I bought my IMac G5 last May just after the Tiger release. My problem is the time it takes for internet pages to load, which considering I have a broadband connection at a fairly fast speed, is appalling. This problem has existed since I bought the Mac and hasn't changed. I tried to bid on ebay last night, the item had 1 minute 30 seconds to go so I put on my bid and sent the page. By the time the page had refreshed the auction had ended, so you can imagine my frustration. I did post here a few months ago but no-one came up with any suggestions, I was also hoping that there would be an update or something to correct this problem but there doesn't appear to be. This is my first Mac and I love it apart from this one very annoying thing as I do use the internet alot. Anyone have any suggestions???
Imac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.2)

Thanks for the info, I still haven't managed to whip a keyboard from work to try as yet but still intend to. I have a few other ideas that maybe others could advise on. I read a letter in this months Mac format mag regarding USB modems basically advising against using them in preference of an ethernet modem/router. Im not to au fait with what these are/why they should be better but I have got my hands on one from a friend and tried to install it earlier, it seems though, that I am going to have to spend over an hour on the phone to my ISP trying to get info out of them for it to install properly (this I am not looking forward to although I will persevere).
The other thing that I thought maybe the problem is with my ISP. I pay for upto 2mbps broadband connection but I have heard that some companies can cap this. Im not sure how they do it and whether it would affect download or upload/page loading. I have sent them an e-mail to see if they can advise.
Other than that I will assume it is the G5 as I cannot think of anything else, but as you can see I have quite a way to go before I can pinpoint the problem.
Again any advise on the above is very much appreciated,

Web pages load slowly or not at all, but internet connection is fine. Can anyone recommend a fix?

Please help! I have a long standing problem with my MacBook Pro, whereby I experience the following symptoms:
- Webpages sometimes load very slowly. The URL is displayed in the address field, but the progress bar appears stuck. Only very slowly does the web page then load.
- Webpages sometimes do not load at all.
- Webpages sometimes load incomplete. Eg. Only part of the website appears, for example the top bar; or certain images fail to load.
However...
- My internet connection is fine. Mobile devices / iPad / work PC all work perfectly well on the same wifi. The problem is isolated to my MacBook Pro
- Clearing the cache, resetting the browser etc do not eliminate or reduce the problem
- Changing to OpenDNS does not fix the problem
- The problem is not specific to Safari. I experience the same on Chrome, Firefox etc.
- Switching it off and on again does not work either (in case anyone suggests it!)
I'm running OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.5 and my MacBook Pro is from early 2011.
Suggestions welcome!

Why is my internet fine but web pages load slowly or not at all?

Hello. I'm going to try and keep this as simple as possible. Last night I went to use my imac and for some reason every wed page I would try and go to either wouldn't open, would time out, or would load so slowly as to be almost no use at all. I reset my modem (I use a wired, ethernet connection) and everything was fine with the internet connection (or so it seemed) because I checked to see if I was able to torrent for instance and that worked just fine. The problem seemes to be based solely around browsing the internet (using both safari and chrome). I'm not sure what's going on and would appriciate any help. Thanks.

Try putting these numbers in Network>TCP/IP>DNS Servers, for the Interface you connect with...
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Then Apply.
For 10.5/10.6, System Preferences>Network, unlock the lock if need be, highlight the Interface you use to connect to Internet, click on the advanced button, click on the DNS tab, click on the little plus icon, then add these numbers...
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Click OK.
DNS Servers are a bit like Phone books where you look up a name and it gives you the phone number, in our case, you put in apple.com and it comes back with 17.149.160.49 behind the scenes.
These Servers have been patched to guard against DNS poisoning, and are faster/more reliable than most ISP's DNS Servers.

Internet Page Loading has slowed to a crawl!

I have enjoyed fast broadband service on my Mac Pro using Att's DSL service with a 3 megabit connection. Just recently when I click on a link or a bookmark, I am waiting a long time for the page to load. I have reset the DSL modem a few times without any improvement. Any ideas?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Go to ~/Library/Caches and delete browser related cache, such as "Metadata" for Safari
If your ISP has a speedtest page, try that if you haven't yet.
Use the OpenDNS IP addresses.
See if there is a firmware update for your modem/router.
Did you just recently install any security updates?

Web pages loading slowly or not at all in all browsers

I don't know why I'm having this problem.... for the last few weeks now. 95% of the time, web pages (for me.... particularly in Ancestry.com and Ebay) load very slowly, or don't load at all. The other 5% of the time, it appears to work normally. I don't seem to have a problem with most other web pages. The problem occurs in all three of my browsers - Safari, Chrome and Firefox. I have dumped all my history and cookies. I have scanned my computer for malware/spyware with MacScan (which I just installed tonight). I am having the same problem on both my laptop (macbook pro) and my iMac. Again.... this problem started just a few weeks ago. I have tried everything I know to fix the problem, but haven't found a solution yet. It is very frustrating. Why would I only be having an issue with browsing on Ancestry and Ebay....and nowhere else? HELP!!

I'm having the same issue, except its not just web pages. It's apps, like facebook and getting emails. It's only a problem when I'm on my home wifi. If I shut the wifi off and use mobile data, everythings much faster.
I contacted Samsung and have a ticket open with them, but there's nothing else they can do for me. I've tried running in safe mode, and resetting to factory settings, but no luck. My next step is to contact Verizon, but I wanted to check here first. Funny thing is I did a google search, and others are complaining of the same issue. I'll update if I ever get it fixed!

Web Pages load slowly

Recently my web pages have been loading very slowly. I have checked out the DSL connection and when I reset safari it gets better for a short time. The same problem is occurring when I use Firefox

There can many reasons, one may be the DNS setting your ISP is using. I would recommend changing the DNS settings to:
1. System preferences
2. Network
3. Click Advanced
4. Click DNS tab
5. Click + sign
6. Add 208.67.222.222
7. Click + sign
8. Add 208.67.220.220
9. Click OK.
10. Exit System Preferences
11. Try out your iMac and report what happened.

Home Page loads slowly because of too many show/hide images.

I was asked to create a home page that displayed the correct product image in the background as you mouse over the menu item in the product portfolio navigation. I built the page using quite a few show/hide behaviors displaying the correct image. Now I have a HUGE home page that loads very slowly. Is there a better way to accomplish the same affect or do I need to scrap this idea and keep the images on the individual pages?
You can see this page here: http://www.keystonewalls.com
(mouseover the PRODUCT PORTFOLIO button and scroll down the menu to see the affect)
The client loves the fact that you don't have to leave the home page to get a good idea of what each product looks like but they aren't happy with how long it takes to load.
Help!

Yup. You've got some trimming to do.
http://www.websiteoptimization.com/services/analyze/
On a T1 connection (1.41 MB/sec) your home page takes 18.50 seconds to load. For dial-ups it's a very painful 395 seconds.
Page size: 1,943,483 bytes. Should be closer to 200 KB.
HTTP server requests: 41. This should be around 10.
