IPhone 3G is extremely slow after 4.0 update.

Both my sister and I have experienced our phones to be extremely slow after updating them. The messages take a few seconds to open, same with the apps. Also while typing, nothing will show up then all of a sudden everything you had typed will show up. It just seems like everything on the phone is slow. I've done some research on it, and everyone said to restore it. The people at Apple said not to do that unless it's the last resort. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Why post the same question twice ?

  • HT1688 Why is My iPhone 4 is extremely slow after updated to ios7

    My Iphone 4 is basically impossible to use after updating it to ios7.  When I type a text message I have timed it taking up to 45 seconds before any letters show up.  It also is very slow if I am typing in safari for a website.

    I did too.  I went to Settings > iCloud > Documents and Data, then turned off  documents and data, and now it is back to normal.  Apparently you cannot take advantage of both on the iphone 4 and 4s.

  • My iPhone 3G is Extremely slow after OS4 Update. How do I go back?

    Is there a way to go back to the orginal version before I updated to OS4. I want my old iphone back, this is nonsense. Why release an update that slows the phone down to the point it's unusable?
    Does anyone have the same issue? If so, what did you do about it? Did anyone try and go to the apple store? What was their result? I was thinkign of going there today, but I will probably just be turned around without an appointment at the 'genius bar'.

    Found this article, http://blogs.chron.com/techblog/archives/2010/07/tipspeed_up_your_older_iphone_3g_running_ios_41.html, which linked to this Lifehacker item, http://lifehacker.com/5599406/ which calls for disabling Spotlight. I did, and my phone is much snappier. Happy once again.

  • Iphone 4s is extremely slow after 5.1.1 update

    Since updating to the latest (5.1.1) my phone is barely usable for anything mroe than 'just' a phone and basic texting.
    Web browsing is terribly slow - regardless of if using data network or wireless connection at home.  Apps are slow to respond and often the touch screen doesn't even register being touched or registers the touch incorrectly (wrong position for ex.)

    I am aware what reverting to default means - unless you're a developer yourself, probably more aware than you are.
    The problem is the update, not apps installed (and fyi yes I have reverted to default - as have many others that I've seen posting even here, and having issues still) but rather the update.  This isn't a request for assistance.  This is a report of an issue - and of a disgruntled user
    back-to back-to back updates released and causing people issues and then innane attempts at 'fixing' the issue by telling people to jump through hoops until they get sick of trying and then just deal with the issues in hopes of an update that actually works (ie: resolves issues without causing more and worse issues) leads to customers taking business elsewhere.
    which is what I'll be doing.  My wife will be getting a new phone in july and as of right now it certainly wont be an apple product.

  • IPhone 4 is very slow after ios 7 update

    Not sure what to do with my frustrations and know this is most probably not the correct forum for these types of issues. But how can a company release something that you cannot reverse out off -  with the new release making the phone virtually unusable.
    If anyone from apple reads this please can you add me to the list of disgruntled customers who have no intention of upgrading to a new iphone but will be selling my phone and moving over to an android device.
    Unless that is you allow customers to go back to the older ios version.
    Apple you amaze me.

    I have the same problem
    This is Pain!
    My phone is so annoying now!
    keyboard is not following, i am super man compared to how slow this phone is after update IOS 7.
    My Ipad2 also destroyed by ios7.
    Slow Slow Slow.
    Iphone4 useless after ios7 update
    - Its so slow that it's really making me angry at APPLE!!
    ipad2 useless after ios7 update
    - was once a beautiful friend!
    - Now after iso7 update,a fat annoying kid that refuse to listen and reply (seconds) after trying to tell it something.
    Obviously Apple don't want us to use these devices anymore, so they gave us an ****** update.
    Sure seems like it !!
    How naive do they think Apple users are?
    Why ooo why did I trust apple and upgrade to ios7, makes me so sad!

  • Why is my 3-month old macbook pro running extremely slow after doing an update (mac osx-update 10.7.4)?

    I keep getting the spinning wheel, programs take ages to open and starting up my mac takes over 5 minutes. Nothing works as it should.

    Hi..
    Try disabling the Lion resume feature. That may help the long startup problem.
    Open System Preferences > General
    Deselect:  Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps
    And delete any items in Sytem Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Items
    And check  /Library/StartupItems
    If nothing above has helped, the startup disk may need repairing.
    Use Lion Recovery

  • IPhone 3G running extremely slow with iOS4

    Anyone else having issues with their iPhone 3G running extremely slow since the iOS4 update? I am mainly noticing it in my messages, when typing a text message, it takes about 20 seconds to respond after touching the letters and when receiving a text message when in the middle of replying the previous messages disappear up, and you must swipe your finger down the screen to get them back.
    Any suggestions to help resolve it?

    All of us 3G users are waiting.
    I just got off the phone with Apple Tech Support (I have the Apple Protection Plan for the 3G iPhone) and he had we do a reset as a new user.
    After reading these recent posts, it is obvious that Apple owes us a real fix to their software upgrade.
    It's very frustrating to use this phone now especially when it ran so well with the previous OS, 3.1.3.
    The fact that Apple does not allow or support downgrading (or, in this case, an "upgrade") to the previous version or a fix now, is not favorable to the company's customers or image, in my opinion.
    I specifically asked the tech when a fix will be coming out and he said in a couple of weeks, but that is mainly for the antenna issue. When pressed for an answer to our problems, he said he wasn't sure if that update to version 4 will address the 3G issues.
    He suggested I post "product suggestions" @ apple.com/feedack and said that Apple does read these comments as well as the Discussion Boards....
    Hey, Apple, if you're reading this......Help us out already with this software mess or face losing customers!!

  • Apple TV extremely slow after sleeping

    Hi all, My apple tv early 2012 is extremely slow after its slept.. (by slow i mean the wifi connection, both to internet and airplay)... Its so slow you can't hear a song or anything, it keeps cutting in and out.. I don't know why this is and its starting to annoy me..
    It has only been happening recently (last two weeks)  so  far I have tried :
    multiple restars = works until the next time it goes into sleep mode or left for a long time
    restore = same as above (latest software)
    disconnect and reconnect does the same thing.. works until I leave it overnight..
    Anyone with any ideas what this could be?
    I thought maybe it was my router but none of my other products are doing this : iphone 4  and 5 and two laptops..
    There has been no physical damage to the 6 months old apple TV
    Thanks all!

    I have a macbook. but after the restore home share hasn't been activated.. its with streaming content from the internet with apple tv itself and also airplay runs extremely choppy

  • My final cut is running extremely slow after having for 6 months.  I use external hard drives and save nothing on my computer.  it takes a long time to render now. do you think something is wrong with computer. took it to mac store but they fail to help

    my final cut is running extremely slow after having for 6 months.  I use external hard drives and save nothing on my computer.  it takes a long time to render now. do you think something is wrong with computer. took it to mac store but they fail to help me.  I have a 13 inch mac book pro 10.6.8 8gb 2.3 gfz intel core i5

    What did Apple tell you about what they did (or did not) find here?
    See if working on the main disk is any faster.
    USB2 is glacial, as I/O interconnects go.  And USB2 disks have been known to fail, or sometimes to drop back to USB1 speeds, too.  FireWire 800 is substantially faster than USB2, but still not as fast as the internal drive connections can provide.
    Put another way, start varying your configuration, and see which configuration changes (still) have the problem, and which don't.

  • IPhoto is extremely slow after upgrading to OSX Maveric

    Has anyone noticed that iPhoto is extremely slow after upgrading to OSX Maverick

    I've noticed that it isn't.
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • Blackberry Z10 became extremely slow after OS update to version 10.3.1.2243

    Hi,
    My Blackberry Z10 became extremely slow after OS update to version 10.3.1.2243. For example it sends text message 10-15 seconds after send button has been hit.
    Can not answer the phone when a caller is calling (answer slide interface is unrespnsovie), if I want to launch any application screen turns black and nothing happens, etc.
    Does anyone experience similar issues?
    Thank you.
    Michal.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    A quick read of this site will answer your final question quite clearly. The "fix" depends on several factors, but given what you describe I recommend you immediately update, via AutoLoader, to the most recent version (.2582)...some of the prior versions contain some particularly challenging issues, which are reported to be fixed in this version.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • Itunes starts extremely slow after an update of windows 8.1.

    Itunes starts extremely slow after an update of windows 8.1.
    It takes up to 10 minutus.
    If I see the appliction log in event viewer then I see the following errors on the Bonjour service.
    For instance:
      Client application bug: DNSServiceResolve(a8:fa:d8:3a:1e:8f@fe80::aafa:d8ff:fe3a:1e8f._apple-mobdev2._t cp.local.) active for over two minutes. This places considerable burden on the network.
    followed by
      SendWakeupPacket error: sent -1 bytes: 10065
    What can this be?
    Already thanks,
    John

    I did all the step with save mode and that didn't gave the same result.
    Then I created a new account and there itunes started up normally.
    So I contued with the user section.
    I removed the itunes directory from
    c:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
    This gave the same result in not starting up.
    Then I removed the itunes directory from
    c:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
    The a popup appears that the Bonjour Service has been disabled.
    I looked in services and saw that is was still running.
    But I tried to restart this service and it took a long time to stop this service.
    Even if I selected restart the Bonjour Service didn't start.
    Manually starting was not a problem.
    Clicking OK on the popup let itunes start quickly. And closing and starting it again was also quickly.
    So Matt thanks for your answer.
    If it happens again I have to see if it was the removing of the itunes directory from roaming or restarting the Bonjour Service.
