IPhone G3 takes over an HOUR to sync!
I am VERY frustrated that it now takes an iPhone G3 a LOOOOONG time to sync because it makes a full back up every time. i am trying to back up to go upgrade to 16GB, and then if you get a phone call, you have to start all over. i finally put it on airplane mode, but i have a headache from not eating because ive been trying to back it up for over TWO HOURS so I can then restore to the new one.
a) a phone call should NOT cancel syncing, it should ASK you and you should be able to decline the call and continue sycning.
b) why can't backup be an option???
I am LOVING the 2.0 but HATING the syncing, this is ridiculously long.
am I missing something, please?!?!?!?
I am so flipin $%!&@^^#$&#@$*& mad! I upgraded to 16GB and after AN HOUR AND A HALF someone called me and it &^@#&^*&@#^$&^#@$B cancels ALL THAT WORK and how I have to ^@&^%%@$@#$@@ !! start all $!%@#&!*!#@ over.
this is STUPID!
It restores the applications on first install, but NOT your music/videos. Then it has to do a FULL BACK UP (which is what i was doing) BEFORE it will add your music/videos.
so now I have to REDO a 2 hour backup BEFORE it will even transfer my music and videos BACK on to my new 16GB.
I scared of how long it will take once I have 16 and not just 8GB of stuff on this thing!! almost wish i had stuck with an 8GB!
i am hating my iphone right now (though still in love with all my new apps) and missing my iPhone EDGE with 2.0 as it worked BEAUTIFULLY.
grrrrrrrrrrrr

IOS4 Software takes over 6 hours to back up iPhone 3g
It takes over six hours to back up my iPhone 3g when downloading the iphone 4 software. Is there any solution to this?
This works.
I personally do a backup in iTunes by right clicking on my phone and then selecting backup. This will only take a few minutes. Then hit upgrade and then refuse the backup option. -
Hello pls help, Why is my Iphone 4S saying its going to take over 15 hours to back up ?
My iphone 4S has never backed up in the 2 years that I have had it. I dont know how to save all the stuff off it so I can do an update and if I try to back it up it says its going to take over 15 hours to back up??
Please let me know what I need to do so that I can back up my stuff and update my software without losing anything.
lilrhi xIf necessary, cancel the backup by pressing the 'x' to the right of the progress bar.
Move your photos from your iPhone to your computer... http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
Try the backup again. If still slow, i.e. more than 15 minutes, you likely have a USB problem. -
So I have been restoring my iPhone5 from a backup for about 3 hours now however iTunes still says that it is going to take over 24 hours to complete the restore process and the progress bar hasn't moved much at all. I feel like something has gone wrong somehow and it shouldn't take this long to complete. Is there something I can do to speed up this process or do I just have to try to wait it out? I'm scared to just unplug my phone and try again since it might screw something up.
if u unplug then that could put ur device into recovery mode. i would wait

How to Create a Bootable Flash Drive to do a clean install of Lion. I have tried to use the InstallESD.dmg but it still will not do a clean install so that I do not have to do a reinstall from the Recovery (That just re downloads and takes over 6 hours)?
The system I'm have is a Mac-mini that had SL on it and no SuperDrive. I have also call Apple Support and they have really have not been to much help over 1st did my up grade to Lion and Installed the Lion Server.... it lost my SSL that I paid for and kill almost on of my server setting, plus kill all my web servers (using apache vhosts), and not to say the LDAP will even let remote users login to your laptops.
PS: There is no way that I'm going to buy a Install USB from Apple... They have over billed me over $300.00 because the Apps Store still has bugs (Glad I did not write that App/Service)
If there is anyone that can give in the information to create a USB install stick, I would be very thinkful.Here you are bro, courtesy of "softpedia.com"....brilliant site!!!
If you ever had problems with your Mac OS X installation you know that the first thing you should do is to check the startup volume using Disk Utility.
After the check has ended and, if the errors exceed a certain level of seriousness, the Disk Utility application will require you to restart your Mac and use its Mac OS X Install disc counterpart.
Other users may have to reinstall OS X altogether, but will find, or already know, that their SuperDrive (a CD/DVD reader and write combo drive) is not functioning properly and it will not be able to read the Install disc.
Although this might happen to Mac OS X Leopard users due to faultyhardware, the vast majority of problematic SuperDrives will be encountered inside Snow Leopard running Macs.
This is due to the updated SuperDrive firmware included in either the Install disc or the software updates one has to install to reach the latest version of OS X, namely 10.6.6.
This can be fixed by flashing the SuperDrive’s stock firmware using free command line tools that one can find for free online (I will write about this process also, but at a later time because this article only focuses on allowing you to create your own alternative USB boot disc).
If you are reading this last bit of information with skepticism, than you should know that it happened to me too. Despite all my tries to make it work properly, the SuperDrive kept on munching any inserted DVDs and just popped them out in about twenty seconds.
The workaround to this issue was to create my own Leopard bootable USB memory stick. I am not suggesting a Snow Leopard bootable stick mainly because there are lots of users that have decided to buy the cheaper, Upgrade version, which I have not tested and, therefore, I’m not sure if it will work properly once written to a USB disk.
And now, here are the exact steps you should follow in order to obtain a fully bootable Leopard (or Lion) Install disc.
Step 1 (If you already have the Leopard install disc DMG file you can skip to Step 2)
Launch Disk Utility (you can find it inside /Applications/Utilities). Here select the Leopard Install disc in the list of drives on the left and click on the New Image menu entry at the top of the window. A save message will appear where you will have to select the Desktop as a destination.
Step 2
After Disk Utility has finished creating the Leopard DMG, insert your USB stick and erase all data and reformat the disk. To do this select the USB in the list of drives on the left and, after clicking on the Erase tab on the right side of the window, choose the Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format and click the Erase button beneath.
Step 3
After the USB has been reformatted, download the SuperDuper app from HERE and launch it. Once SuperDuper starts, you will only have to select the DMG in the Copy drop-down menu, your USB memory stick on the right and hit the “Copy Now” button.
One can also use Disk Utility for this task but creating a bootable USB stick failed 2 out 4 times when copying the DMG to the stick (with the exact same settings each time). Creating the bootable stick using SuperDuper proved to be the perfect way to do it because it worked each of the 4 times I tested it.
The steps above can also be used to create a bootable Mac OS X Lion USB by using the InstallESD.dmg image you can find inside the Lion installer (named “Install Mac OS X Lion.app”) downloaded from the Mac App Store in the /Applications folder.
To locate the InstallESD.dmg right click the Lion installer, select the “Show Package Contents” entry, go inside the “Contents” folder, and from there into the “SharedSupport” folder. Inside this folder you can find the InstallESD.dmg you can use to create your own bootable Mac OS X Lion USB stick. To do so, go to the third step described above and use the InstallESD.dmg as the DMG to be copied to your USB disc.
That’s it! Once the process ends you will have a fully bootable Leopard (or Lion) USB disk that you can use as an alternative to the Apple’s DVD Install disc that comes bundled with all Macs.
To use your newly created bootable disk you will have to restart the Mac, press and hold the OPTION key until the StartupManager appears. Here, select the Mac OS X Install disk using your keyboard arrows and press return to start from the selected drive. -
Why does it take over two hours to download a movie on Apply tv
Why does it take over two hours to download a movie on Apple TV
ThanksWelcome to the Apple Community.
The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this at www.speedtest.net.
1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps, 720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.
Netflix uses adaptive streaming and can reduce quality right down to produce a stream as low as 0.5 Mbps. -
It takes over an hour for the rental movies from itunes to download. is this normal?
it takes over an hour to download. is this normal?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
That all depends on your internet service. 6 Mbps or better is recommended for HD rental content. 2.5 Mbps for SD. You can check your actual internet speed at speedtest.net.
If you'd rather download SD content to avoid waits, you can change the type of content available by default in settings. -
Premiere Elements 7 Takes Over 1 hour to OPEN
Hello,
I'm new to this forum, so please bear with me.
PE7 takes over 1 hour to open on my computer. Does anyone have an idea what the problem could be? This is absolutely outrageous. I'm a music producer, & I've run all sorts of huge programs on this computer w/no problem. Why would such a simplistic program like PE7 take over an hour to open???? Once it opened, it froze & crashed while I was browsing thru font styles.
I'd appreciate any assistance
ThxIt could be any of a number of issues:
1) Your computer isn't powerful enough, especially if it is a laptop. Check out our recommended specs, not Adobes:
http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b699a8/8
Or tell us how fast your processor is, how much RAM you have, how much free space is left on your hard drive and what operating system you're using and we'll tell you.
2) A bad install. Try uninstalling and reinstalling the software.
3) Your firmware and drivers are out of date. Outdated RealTek drivers and Quicktime, in particular, can foul the program. (Again, as listed in the FAQs at the top of this forum.)
http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3c057647/2
4) Your computer just needs some basic maintenance. This is particular true if you've got a variety of software installed (as you apparently do). Here are our recommended regular maintenance steps.

There also could be a number of other issues, including whether or not you've optimized Vista or XP for video editing and what type of video you're editing.

Why is Premiere Pro telling me it will take over 24 hours to export a 55-second clip with no audio or effects? It's never done this before, but this is driving me nuts. I'm almost finished with this project, I can't have this kind of stuff happening now.
Forgive me. I'm just stressing hardcore at the moment.
Specs:
OS X 10.9.4
2.8 GHz intel
Premiere 5.5
exporting cell phone video which has been treated with effects and layered with other clips from cell phone video, then nested as one single video clip, now trying to export as H.264 (DV 24fps)
Full disclosure: I am an amateur so if you need more info just tell me and I'll produce it if I can. I should note though, I've done this before with no problem. However the settings may have been different (still getting the hang of the whole 'settings' thing, to be honest). It's very possible that the problem in this case is the operator, in other words. -

IPod Touch takes over an hour to boot up??
Every time I turn off (or run out of battery power) my iPod Touch, it takes over an hour or two to boot up. It will cycle through with the apple and a blank screen, then white out and start all over again. If it happens while connected to iTunes, it will show up as loading in iTunes for a while, then appear as connected but on the5 Summary Tab, the bar at the bottom of the screen shows the iPod as full with "Other" when it should be a mix of apps, music, etc.
I have updated to the latest iOS, I tried resetting a while back, but nothing has changed.
It does seem to take less time to boot up when not plugged into a charger or to iTunes, but it still takes over 45 mins at least.
What is wrong???If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

Should it take over 1 hour to load an update OS
Should it take over 1 hour to load an update OS on an iPad mini?
A lot can depend on your bandwidth, internet speed, etc. It can also depend on which update you are installing? Are you doing this OTA, or via iTunes. If OTA, then installation also includes expanding the download to the files needed to install. Installation via iTunes can normally not take quite as long since it isn't necessary to expand the files.

Why do rented films take over an hour to buffer?
After a new software update on my Apple TV, rented movies take over an hour to buffer. Everything was fine before the update, so my Internet speed must be ok
Have you checked your internet speed (you can use speedtest.net to do this). Have you considered an issue on your local network, could you be experiencing interference, have you checked for unused wifi channels (you can do this with iStumbler) or tried using another wifi channel.

Hyper-V Cluster Hosts BMR Backups take over 12 hours
Hello,
We are using 2012 R2 DC to create a Hyper-V 2 node cluster. The backup is DPM 2012 R2 running on 2012 R2 DC. The DPM system was upgraded to 2012 R2 from DPM 2010 about a year ago and has worked for the most part.
Two problems we are having. I am using the VSS writer from the SAN manufacture. On our old cluster I used the Microsoft VSS writer and had no problems unless I loaded the C: up with too many files on the cluster node. I saw another post
that says to disable the HW VSS writer but that was unsuccessful the last time I tried it. I am going to try it again though.
1. I currently get a random VM that hangs during the backup. The VM still runs but I cannot migrate it and backups fail from that point on. In Hyper-V backup the Status field shows "Backing up...". I am waiting for this
to happen on a non critical VM but alas that is not happening. <sigh> To correct the problem I have to pull power from the cluster node the system was on and then about 90% of the time I have to replace to different .sys files in c:\windows\system23\drivers
and then run the startup repair utility from the windows install disk.
2. I did not notice this until this week but my BMR backups of the Hyper-V hosts are taking over 12 hours to complete. The BMR on a different stand alone server is taking less than 10 min. What is causing this and if these are taking this
long is it interfering with the backup of the VMs on the cluster and causing the problem in paragraph 1 above? I have tried to stagger my backups so they don't interfere with each other but if this one is taking 12-14 hours that will never happen.Hi,
Are you on DPM 2012 R2 UR3 ? If so - there is no need to a vss hardware provider, you can safely un-install it and DPM backups will continue to work fine.
Problem-1) I currently get a random VM that hangs during the backup. The VM still runs but I cannot migrate it and backups fail from that point on. In Hyper-V backup the Status field shows "Backing up...".
Response-1) Is there still an active backup job for that VM on the DPM server - and does it show that it's still transferring changes ? If not, then wait for other VM backups to complete on that host, then manually stop the DPMRA service - that
will reset the "backup in progress" flag and allow the VM to be managed. We have an open bug that we're working on to fix that issue.
Problem-2) My BMR backups of the Hyper-V hosts are taking over 12 hours to complete.
Response-2) DPM is not responsible for the amount of time a BMR backup takes to complete. To troubleshoot this outside of DPM perform the following.
First make sure no active BMR job is running by looking at running jobs on the DPM server.
Second - using task manager make sure there are no WBENGINE.EXE process running on the DC you want to test - if so - kill it with task manager.
To test BMR backup outside of DPM, try this command:
1) Set up a network share on a remote machine
\\server\bmrshare
2) From an administrative command prompt on the PS, type:
wbadmin.exe start backup -allcritical -backuptarget:\\server\bmrshare
This should show you the list of volumes included in the BMR backup and ask "Do you want to start the backup operation?. - Type Y to continue..
See how long it takes to complete or see if it hangs - kill it if you need to after X hours - but look on the share and see how much it copied before killing it.
You can try disabling chimney on both DPM and DC to see if that helps.
c:\>Netsh int tcp set global chimney=disabled
