IPAD Movie Sync Extremely Slow

Everytime I sync a movie to my IPAD it takes about 45 minutes to sync. Please help !!!!!!!!!!!1

Hi,
How is the iPad connected to the PC? Make sure its directly connected to a high-speed USB2 port using the cable that came with it.
This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1286 provides additional tips that will rule out USB connection issues.

Wifi on ipad 2 is extreme slow

Hi,
I have 4G network available and i am using AT&T Mobile Hotspot as a wireless router, Everything is perfect such as my laptop, Android phone, but when it comes to IPAD, it is extremely slow. Even to open google it takes about 1-2 minutes, i cant download any application.
Last week i click update all applications (26 applications) i couldnt able to download even a single one and now i cant use old versions of these applications as well, because if i click it says waiting.. I dont know, this is the first time i am stuck with ios.
Please help.

If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.
How to Solve the Problem of An iPad App Download Stuck on “Waiting”

Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
If that doesn't work:
• Log out of your iTunes store account. Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

Ipad Air is extremely slow on wifi. Ipad 1 worked fine.

My Ipad Air wifi is extremely slow. I have seen online this is an issue. I have read responses but still confused. Ipad 1 worked fine.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

IPad Movie Syncing problem -- Greyed out in "On This iPad"

I have attempted to add "Home Video's" to my iPad. They are MP4. I am running the updated versions of ITunes and my Ipad. I have been struggling with this problem for a while now. When I check the Ipad, the "On This Ipad" shows the dotted cirlce and the title of the video is greyed out. I have other home videos that I added in a long ago sync that are active, but cannot get these active. I have tried various settings ie. "Manually Managing Music/Video, Syncing only Checked songs/videos. I have had no success.
When I do go to sync it makes changes in the bar at the bottom of the screen, but then dissapears during the sycning process and reverts back to the orignal. I Would appreciate some help.

I'm sorry I don't have a solution to post, but just want to say that I too (and I'm sure, among millions of others) have experienced nothing but frustration and anger at all the ridiculous bugs that have happened seemingly without any interference from the user's end.
I can't even begin to list all the problems I've had since being forced to upgrade to iOS 7 on my iPhone(s) and iPad(s) being a family of Apple users. The OS "Music" app is completely useless now (half of my 1,200 songs are "greyed out" and unplayable), iTunes doesn't sync properly (it absonlutely refuses to transfer songs no matter how many options and selections in the various panes are checked off) and everything is INCREDIBLY slow.
I've read SO many possible solutions and fixes and, really, I don't have the TIME to be reading endless posts and screwing around "experimenting" trying to get it fixed. And Apple, as usual, is mum and nowhere to be found.
My advice to tech companies is to LEAVE THINGS BE -- especially if there is no real improvement. Unless the change significantly improves the functionality—changing the interface, buttons, or even the icons JUST BECAUSE is stupid policy and infuriates those of us whose lives don't live and breathe Apple...and just want a functioning phone.

IPad Movie Sync

I synced my ipad to show that I only wanted one of my tv shows to sync to my IPAD. When the syncing was done, all my movies and shows were showing up on myu ipad in the cloud and the one I wanted to sync was showing up as needing to be synced bia the cloud on the Ipad. I dont want this option, as I do not have wifi on my Ipad via cell contract. So when I get to my destination, I wouldnt be able to sync it since I dont have wifi access. How do I sync just the shows I want the old way before the IOS7 update, Please????

There's a checkmarkable selection at the top of the movie selection window that gives the option of adding additional movies besides the ones you've manually selected. Is that option checked or not? If it is checked that would explain why you have the extra movies. I've tested it and it works - I have 5 movies manually selected and when I clicked on the checkmark and selected 3 most recently added it synced 8. When I clicked the checkmark off it synced only the 5 manually selected.

My ipad 2 is extremely slow loading

When watching video, it is buffering an extreme amount of the time. Another ipad in using the same router is very fast.

You force close the apps completely correct? not just minimize the app and let it remain suspended in the Multitasking display? If that's what you are doing, have you tried a simple reset along with closing all of the apps?
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Importing photos from my computer, running windows, to iPad Air is extremely slow!

Hey guys,
I am syncing about 30 GB of photos and videos from my computer to my iPad using the latest version of iTunes (just updated today).
It's not my first time syncing my photo library. I've done it on my iPad 2, iPad 3 and even the iPhone 4S and this has been by far the slowest: almost two hours and I am not even half-way through.
Has anyone else had this problem? Sure, I mean recently... I have seen many other discussions on the issue.
Thanks in advance

I am not sure whether I can say I fixed the problem, but not including the videos made the syncing speed normal again. It is not even that much (a couple of gigs compared to 25 GB of HD photos) but apparently it has a massive effect.
So next time, just uncheck "include videos" and you should be good to go. Who knows? Maybe Apple introduced that option in the recent iTunes versions untill they fix the bug or whatever it is.

Bluetooth sync extremely slow

Synchronizing my N96 with ovi suite via bluetooth is horribly slow.
Transfering only a single photo for example takes about 10 minutes.
Even when I only sync contacts and messages, I can wait like 5 minutes or longer.
Is there any known issue about syncing an N96 with ovi suite via bluetooth?
I cant imagine why it would take so long...
When I use direct file transfer, and not ovi suite, to transfer the same photo to my PC, it works at normal speed. (less than 10 seconds)
When I use the usb cable to sync to ovi suite, its working at normal speed as well.
Any ideas about this? Help appreciated...

ITunes sync extremely slow

I'm experiencing very slow syncs at the moment, although it was fine until recently (had my 3Gs nearly 9 months now).
Copying photos off the iPhone via Windows Explorer seems very quick, and the Backup part of the sync process (iPhone to PC direction) takes only 30 seconds or so, but uploading new content (podcasts, music, vids etc) to the iPhone seems to take a very very long time, and iTunes is unresponsive during much of this syncing.
For instance, I'm waiting for a single 151Mb podcast to upload to the iPhone now and it's taken 5 minutes so far, and is only 1/3 of the way through.
Syncing to my iPhone didn't used to take this long - a sync of larger amounts of new files would only take a minute or two.
I'm using the same USB socket on the PC (although I have tried others) and I'm using the original Apple USB cable (again I've tried others). I have also completely uninstalled iTunes (the 6 apps, exactly as per the Apple support article) and installed the latest iTunes 9.0.3.15
Any ideas?
James

Thanks for the link. I tried the USB power save setting off on all USB ports, no luck. I always hibernate, so instead I tried power off, start up and sync, again still slow. I checked the bios for any USB settings, but they're just for turning on USB, enabling USB 2.0 support and enabling legacy support.
I think I'm stuck. Out of interest I copied all my iTunes stuff to my other PC, an old Dell Optiplex GX270 and that syncs nice a quick, with iTunes responsive the whole time. Then tried syncing again on my Asrock mobo PC, and it's still super slow with iTunes locking up.
I also tried unplugging all other USB devices, and trying different USB ports, no luck.
All my other USB devices work fine and are working at full speed, including various high speed flash drives, cameras and a Samsung Jet phone.

ITunes syncing extremely slow!

Hi, I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions or possible solutions as to why iTunes syncs my music so slow. I recently bought an iPod Touch and it took about 5 hours to sync 700 songs. My computer is fairly decent, it's 2.66 Gigahertz, and I have 1.5 gigs of RAM as well. Also, this problem never occured on my previous ipod nano, which synced in less than a minute. A single song takes about a minute to sync now. Anybody know what's wrong?

I have the exact same problem. iTunes sync is amazingly slow on my MacBook. You can transfer files faster than you can sync, but 10x times faster; I'm disappointed. I have to admit, iTunes never claimed to be fast.

Ipad 1 became extremely slow after upgrade to ios 5

Killing programs do not really help. This makes the ipad really useless. Anybody who has an idea how to solve?

Yes. Do this:
Hold the Power Button and Home Button simultaneously. Ignore the red slider, and allow it to power off on its own. When it reboots, input your code (if you have one). Your iPad should be refreshed and faster. Worked for me.
Similarly, though you didn't ask, if you find your battery draining much faster than before the iOS 5 upgrade (MUCH faster, and without any activity), delete all your Email accounts, reboot, and re-add them. It solves the problem.
(I have both iPad 1 & 2)

ITunes sync extremely slow now

Now iTunes sync with iPhone takes hours each time.
No new data, it's a an hourly sync or so, usually
it's done in two minutes…

Yes, no avail.
But the whole thing is a mess now :
- Sync Entourage > iCal don't work properly
- MobileMe don't sync with Address Book
- and apparently erased Address Book, so my iPhone synched with an empty Addressbook.
Needless to say I'm overly happy.
As usual, never have any problem with my Mac, except when M$oft comes into play.

Apple TV, HD movie downloads extremely slow.

It is taking upwards of 30 minutes to get an HD movie downloaded to my Apple TV before I can start t he movie. I am using AT&T U-verse Gateway with 16 megabit capability. I am averaging about 10megabit download speed on iMac and other MacBooks in the house.
Several factors that just don't add up:
I have five bars on the Apple TV wireless signal strength.
I have no delays or interruptions when streaming Internet Radio from Apple TV.
I have no delays or interruptions when streaming movies trailers from Apple TV.
I have no delays or interruptions when streaming YouTube from Apple TV.
I have very few delays or interruptions when streaming music from the iMac to Apple TV.
I have no delays or interruptions when streaming movies from Netflix on the Nintendo Wii.
I have recycled the AT&T U-verse wireless(802.11g) modem/router.
I have changed the wireless channel on the router to 9.
I have recycled the Apple TV numerous times.
I'm not sure how everything else downloads or streams without issue on the same wireless network, and sometimes same Apple TV, with the exception of iTunes HD movie rentals.

I have the same experience with my ATV1. The obvious factor is the server that is delivering the HD media to the device.

Nano first sync'ed extremely slow, now crashes all the time

My Nano worked fine until a few days ago. It then suddenly started to sync extremely slow. Because of this, I canceled the sync, but the Nano stayed in Sync-Mode anyway. So I reseted it. That seems to have messed it up completely: now it crashes every time I connect it to my Macbook. When I try it, the Apple logo appears shortly, then the connect screen, after which it crashes again... Also when I try to play anything, the Nano just crashes...
Resetting the iPod (Center+Menu) didn't work... Is there anything else I can do?
Btw, my other iPods (1G Nano + Touch) seem to work fine. So iTunes probably is not the problem...

Problem solved: I had to put the Nano into hard disk mode, so that the software doesn't get booted once it connect it to a Mac. That way it can't crash. Then I could reset it and now it works again.
Btw, Apple Service didn't want to tell me how to do it. Luckily Google did:

Extreme slow syncing & huge backup folder

The problem I'm having is 2-fold: 1. My 3GS syncs extremely slow; approx. 12 hrs.! And 2.: If I check the backup folder in home/library/applicationsupport/MobileSync, it's huge: over 1 Gig. Allthough I have ~ 11 Gigs on the phone, I don't understand this size. Shouldn't it be no more than a couple of megs? If I'm correct, the backup folder only contains info about the apps and other content that's on the phone. The apps are in iTunes/Mobile Applications. I have no explanation for this problem, tried deleting de backup folder and fresh syncing, but to no effect. Can anyone help out? Thanks in advance! Patrick

This link provides the data included with your iPhone's backup, which includes photos and/or video in your iPhone's Camera Roll, contact info, various iPhone settings, recent calls, call favorites, SMS/MMS, Safari history/cache/cookies, email account settings, wi-fi network settings, 3rd party app settings and data created and stored by a 3rd party app.

Something may be wrong with your backup or with some of the data included with the backup since it shouldn't take 12 hours or anywhere close to that. My iPhone's backup takes well less than 5 minutes. You can delete the existing backup and create a new backup to see if this makes any difference. An initial new backup will take longer that succeeding backups.
