  • Internet strong, then a day later, gets slow and needs restart,why

    had this problem on the 1tb TC for 2 months now. Got tired of resetting ever day and hooked my old linksys back up with the TC in bridge and no more resetting. Anyone else have this problem?

    Sound like you may be experiencing network interference. Try the following...
    *_Time Capsule Weak Signal Strength / Dropped Connections_*
    Forgive the size of the post, but the suggestions below have helped others with similar issues. Try each topic individually and see if things improve, If not move on to the next one.
    *Keep the Time Capsule Cool*
    Some posters have observed that when they positioned the Time Capsule for better ventilation and cooling, their network connectivity issues resolved themselves. Also avoid locating the devise within poorly ventilated cabinets or piling items around or on top of it.
    *Time Capsule Orientation*
    While the location you chose to setup your Time Capsule may be acceptable, but the direction it is oriented can have an effect on signal strength. It appears that the signal of the Time Capsule does not radiate equally from all sides of the devise.
    The antennas within the devise are positioned along the 3 smooth sides. That is, there is no antenna on the side bearing the ports and cables. As a result, position the devise with the ports and cables AWAY from the direction of most of the clients that will be connecting to it.
    *Cordless Phones*
    Some users have discovered that the cordless phones they have in the home occupy or are near the same bandwidth as their wireless network (2.4Ghz or 5Ghz). Try temporarily disabling the handsets and their bases and see if network connectivity improves. If so you may need to change the channel that the phone uses or purchase phones that occupy a different bandwidth.
    *Proximity To Other Devices*
    One poster observed: “Finally have full access, full speed, and full functionality. Initially I installed the Time Capsule at the location of my cable, cable modem... which of course was next to my HDTV, DVD, Apple TV, Amplifier, etc. Get the picture? After about 4 weeks of starts and stops, resets and repeated initial backups, I moved the unit to another location, closer to my Mac, and in an area where there are no other electronics. Now, it runs perfect.” [http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1734818&tstart=0]
    *Change Time Capsule Channel*
    Launch Airport Utility.
    Select the device on the left.
    Click Manual Setup.
    Select “Airport” in the toolbar.
    Change “Channel” to a different one. If you have another wireless router operating, ensure that each devices channels are as far apart as possible.
    Click “Update”.
    Close Airport Utility.
    *Preferred Networks & Airport Services*
    You may be experiencing interference from other networks in your neighborhood. When you click the Airport menu are there other networks listed other than your own?
    If so, is your network at the top of the list? It should be.
    Go to System Preferences --> Network --> Select Airport on the left.
    Click "Advanced". In the “Airport” tab note the various local wireless networks that Airport detects. Is the network you prefer to connect to at the top of the list? If not drag it to the top. Are there other networks you never intend to connect to (an old work network, or a neighbors network)? Then highlight them and click the "-" button.
    Make sure “Remember any network this computer has joined” is checked.
    Click "OK".
    For "Network Name" be sure your network is selected and then click "Apply".
    Is Airport (wireless) your primary means of connecting to your network? If so, is Airport at the top of the list of services on the left? It should be.
    Click the small “Gear” button at the bottom of the window and select “Set Service Order”.
    Now drag Airport to the top of the list.
    Click “OK”. Click “Apply”.
    Now see if network connectivity has improved.
    *Transmit Power & Wide Channels*
    If you are using the 802.11n only (5GHz) radio mode, you can also select to use wide channels, which provide higher data throughput in your network.
    Launch Airport Utility
    Select your Time Capsule on the left.
    Click “Manual Setup”.
    Select “Airport” in the toolbar.
    Click the “Wireless” tab.
    Click “Wireless Options...” at the bottom of the window.
    Adjust the “Transmit Power” to 100%.
    Put a check mark in the box labeled “Use Wide Channels”. (If you are using a 802.11a/b/g (2.4GHz) radio mode then select “Interference Robustness”)
    Click “Done”.
    Click “Update” in the lower right hand corner.
    Wait for the Time Capsule to restart and then see if your network speeds improve.
    Let us know if any of the above helped improve your situation.
    Cheers!

  • Phone really slow and needing hard reset all the time now.

    I recently updated my Droid Razr Maxx HD to the latest OTA.  Since then it has become very slow and unstable.  Every two or three days I will have to perform a hard reset.  Going to the apps page is fine sometimes then other times it takes forever to load.  Has anyone else had problems like this and if so have you been able to fix it?
    Thanks
    Gabe Lundy

        Update are meant to improve your device gabriellundy! I know how frustrating it must be to have to complete a hard reset on your phone multiple times. Have you tried running your phone on safe mode with out any applications? I would recommend to try this to determine if a third party app is causing issues to your device.

  • IPad at work and need to reset

    Hello there,
    we use iPads in our workplace.  We have an employee that left and she entered a personnal icloud account againts our compagny rules.
    We are trying to reset the iPad to be able to give someone else.  We are stuck, it keeps requesting the apple ID and password.
    Is there a way to bypass this step and restart?
    We are on version IOS 8.1.2
    The ipad serial number is: DY*****VGJ
    IMEI: **********
    Thanks

    Your not speaking to apple here.  We are users like you.
    Undoing the Activation lock
    See Texas Mac Man post in
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6528124
    basically you contact apple with proof of ownership.
    consider DEP this will assign your company as the owner of the device.  Use meraki a free MDM.

  • Has anyone noticed their iPad is slower and freezes with the new IOS 7 upgrade

    Is anyone having problems with your iPad freezing with the new operating system

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • IPad 1 getting slower and unstable

    My iPad 1 is getting more and more slow and unstable. It has iOS 4.2.1 and I'm afraid to upgrade to iOS 5.1.1 because many says that it is too heavy for iPod 1. How can I restore to iOS 4.2 or, better, to 4.3?

    No - Apple does not support downgrading.
    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
    But frankly, I wold consider the upgrade. My son is currently using my old iPad first gen running 5.1.1. Works just fine.

  • HT4623 I still have an iPad 1, and need to update to iOS 7 to use Keynote, Pages and Numbers but I get the message the my system is updated in iOS 5.1.1 and doen's offer me another update!

  • When I first open firefox it is fast but as I surf it gets slower and slower them stops, I have to close it and restart. what do I need to do to fix this?

    I start of using Firefox 7, as I surf or stumble it gets slower and slower loading pages till it just starts to freeze up. I have to shut down firefox and restart. This only happens after 3 or 4 web pages.

    As suggested I went to Control Panel & chose Add/Remove Pgms. Now, near the bottom was Windows iLivid Toolbar. I then hi-lighted it & removed it. The date it was last used seemed to be when my problem started. I am not a big user of toolbars (except the main ones); so I had no issues about deleting one that I did not recognize.
    Then I opened up Mozilla again & changed my Home Page, using Tools then Options. I closed out Mozilla, then brought it up again & my new Home Page was showing just fine. Wow! What a relief it worked. I hope it lasts. Thanx Firefox !

  • FIRE FOX IS GETTING SLOWER AND SLOWER LOADING PAGES I GO TO ONLINE. IT LOAD CIRCLE STOP SPINNING AND WILL START BACK BUT IT TAKES IT'S TIME TO DO SO. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON THROUGH THE LAST SEVERAL UPGRADES.

    FIRE FOX USED TO BE A FAST BROWSER BUT IT IS GETTING SLOWER AND SLOWER. THE BLUE-E IS ABOUT TO THE POINT OF BEING FASTER THEM THE FOX. I HAVE ALWAYS LIKE THE FOX, JUST WANT TO FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM WITH IT AND THE LONGER I HAVE THE WINDOW OPEN ARE UP THE WORSE IT GETS. I DO A LOT OF GAMING ON FACEBOOK PLAYING MAFIA WARS BUT THE PROBLEM IS NOT LIMITED TO JUST THERE IT IS ALL THE TIME AND EVERY WHERE. I HAVE TRIED ADD-ON'S THINKING THEY MAY HELP BUT NOTHING HAS DONE ANY GOOD. CHROME IS TWICE IF NOT THREE
    TIMES AS FAST AS THE FOX LATELY ON LOADING PAGES.

    For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices. 
    That all works.
    It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now.  They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
    I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
    Thanks for listening,
    Melissa

  • Does the iPad get slower with time?

    i have an iPad 4 for over a year. Does the iPad get slower with the passage of time or because of small amount of available?

    As with any piece of electronics, the more stuff you get on there, the more clutter and the more 'junk' (not meaning offensively, just junk as extra files, fragmented files, etc) that it has to run through.
    If you think it's getting too slow, you can fully back it up, then reset your iPad back to factory settings (erase all content and settings) and then restore from that backup.
    It's not impossible, just something to do carefully because if you haven't backed everything up correctly, you will lose it. (content and apps from iTunes can always be redownloaded but content made on your iPad can be deleted if not backed up)
    I've had my iPad 2 for almost three years now and really haven't noticed a major decline in function. So unless you see something drastic, I really wouldn't worry about it.

  • IMac getting slower -and Im getting more frustrated!

    Like others it would appear....  I am finding my iMac is getting slower and slower with each day that passes since upgrading to Mavericks.  It is slow to open and close apps.  Slow to open mail.  Often hangs with the little ball spinning forever and I have to hold the start button to shut down.  I've even noticed that simple scrolling jumps all over the place as it is slow to respond. iMessage is often up to 4 minutes behind!  I noticed that others have used EtreCheck which has been helpful to those 'in the know'.  Any helpful advice would be greatly appreciated, as I have no diea what's what! Thank you.

    A.
    Some of your user files (not system files) have incorrect permissions or are locked. This procedure will unlock all your user files, reset their ownership, and remove their access-control lists. If you've set special values for those attributes, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    Back up all data.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
    Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR..; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_; chmod -R -N ~ $_; } 2>&-
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not  going to reset a password.
    Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
    B.
    Launch the Font Book application and validate all fonts. You must select the fonts in order to validate them. See the built-in help and this support article for instructions. If Font Book finds any issues, resolve them.
    From the application's menu bar, select
    File ▹ Restore Standard Fonts...
    You'll be prompted to confirm, and then to enter your administrator login password.
    Boot in safe mode to rebuild the font caches. Boot again as usual and test.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. In that case, ask for instructions.
    Also note that if you deactivate or remove any built-in fonts, for instance by using a third-party font manager, the system may become unstable.
    C.
    "BlackBerry Desktop Manager" is incompatible with Mavericks and should be removed.
    Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
    Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
    I never install system modifications myself, and I don't know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find that information.
    Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickMyMac” (a hypothetical example.) First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickmymac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickMyMac.” If not, open “BrickMyMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    You will generally have to reboot in order to complete an uninstallation. Until you do that, the uninstallation may have no effect, or unpredictable effects.
    If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    WARNING: Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software.

  • WiFi Connection Gets Slower and Slower

    I have a TG862G/CT Arris (Comcast) router. The WiFi connection worked great for more than 6 months. I use Chrome browser with Windows 7.
    Recently (last 3+ weeks) something changed. (I haven't move or blocked the router; still connecting with exact same computers.) When I first connect I have very fast connection (response), but after 5 to 10 minutes the response gets slower and slower and finally pages don't load. I get "waiting" messages in the lower left hand side of the screen. The browser tab finally shows the name of the web site, but the screen remains blank.
    I would appreciate any help with how to trouble shoot this problem so it can be resolved.
    Thanks and best regards.

    Hi Cam
    Are you using a 3rd party router or an Apple Airport Unit? If the latter, make sure you are using the latest Airport Firmware. If not sure, open Airport Utility in your Applications>Utilities folder. Latest version is 7.4.2. If not, update the firmware via the Base Station Menu (you need to first click on your Airport Unit in the Utilities panel). Otherwise, a soft (unplug/wait/plugin) or hard reset of your Airport Unit might help.
    If a 3rd party router, make sure the firmware is up-to-date. If it is, then a reset of the unit may help.
    Also, the Airport card in the machine, or the router unit may be failing. Former case, run the Apple Hardware Test - note this Apple document is for mid 2007 machines and later.
    As an aside, when creating a thread with a question, best to leave the "question box" in your original post panel checked. Otherwise, it may not be apparent you need assistance.

  • Why is my iPod touch getting slower and slower

    Please can anyone tell me why my iTouch is getting slower and slower?
    also why do we have to do so many updates?
    Can I go back to the original software for my ipod touch?
    sorry for so many questions but they are related

    - All I can say in this Apple forum is that downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.
    - Periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The 4G only has 256 MB of memory.
    - Restoring the iPod also helps

  • Hi there, I'm Medel and I'm currently on Saudi Arabia. I forgot my security questions' answers and need to reset it but I just added an alternate email a while ago. Can anyone help me how to reset it even if I don't have a recovery email registered?

    Can anyone help me how to reset my security questions on my apple account? I forgot the answers and need to reset it. Please Help...

    An alternate email is not used for resetting security questions, do you know if you have a rescue email address on your account ? If you do then follow steps 1 to 5 half-way down this page and you should get a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact Support in Saudi Arabia to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699#S
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use
