Is there any way to speed up the task sequence media wizard?

Hi. I'm running SCCM 2007 R2. We mostly deploy our OS builds with USB keys. Our image is approx 7GB so it was taking a long time every time we wanted to create a new key (approx 2 hours). After looking online the solution seemed to be to visit a machine
with a DP and plug in the key directly.
I have the SCCM console on my local PC (Win7 Ultimate) and I've installer a DP on my PC. After some initial problems I got all the packages to update the DP and all looks OK. However I'm running the first key build now and it's been going for over 2 hours.
I can see files been written to the key in windows explorer and the CreateTsMedia.log isn't showing any errors. It's just really slow. Have i missed a step? Is it like this the first time you use a DP?
thanks

Yes, I know this is an old post, but I’m trying to clean them up.
Are you building the USB key locally to CM12 or remotely? I have always found that building the USB key locally on CM07 site server to be the fastest way to do this.

Is there any way to speed up the chipscope?

Hello
I have made a design to test an ADC. The timing report shows that it can runs at 200MHz. But after I added a chipscope part, the frequency became much lower.
Reduce the width and deepth of the chipscope would make it run faster, but I still want to know if there is any way else to make it faster.
Thanks for your help

Is there any way to speed up the printing from my Mac to my HP LaserJet?

I just bought an HP LaserJet Pro 400 M451dn and it works wonderfully and prints amazing quality but the only problem is it takes a VERY long time for my MacBook Pro to send the data to the printer. It's suppose to be up to 21ppm but I was literally getting 2ppm. Granted it was a rather detailed page I was printing, but 2ppm is still way to slow. Used the generic PCL driver printed way faster but only printed in Black and White.
Specifics
Mac OS X 10.7.5
HP LaserJet Pro 400 M541dn
USB connected (about 12 feet)
Downloaded lastest driver and firmware from HP's website
Tried generic PCL driver, prints waaaaaay faster but only in Black & White.
I download something called GutenPrint but I have no idea how to install. If thats a good option and someone has instructions I would greatly apreciate it.
I'm not a tech wiz, but I consider myself good with computers.
Thanks in advance!

Gutenprint drivers are intended for non-laser printers. HP supplies the proper drivers, and you can download the latest version directly from HP's support site. Or you can install the most recent HP drivers provided by Apple.
Printing speeds do not include the time it may take to transfer data to the printer. It also doesn't take into account the time it takes for the printer to be prepared to start printing. Color is much slower than B/W.
Contact HP for any additional assistance you may need since these forums do not provide support for non-Apple products.

Is there a way to speed up the response time from the dock

Is there a way to speed up the response time for external hard drives from the dock? I have three external HDs but when I click on the alias in the dock there is always hesitation before it opens. I'm leaning towards the fact that it is just a result of the fact that the speed of the Mac is what it is. But, maybe there is something I can do to speed it up. The drives are plugged via usb directly to the Mac and they have there own power source. The curious thing is that they once were plugged into a large separately powered USB hub and I don't recall a lag like I have now. Any thoughts? Thanks...

Have you got the drives set up to spin down when not in use?
Have a look at the Energy Saver settings in System Preference on the Mac.
Make sure the "Put the Hard Discs to sleep when possible" box is not ticked.

Is there any way to speed up "repair disk" over internet recovery on OSX

After receiving a grey screen on startup, I finally have been able to boot into internet recovery on my 13" macbook pro. I'm running "Repair Disk" from the Disk Utility on my "Macintosh HD" drive. The estimated time is listed at "1 day, 23 hours", and has been stuck there for about 8 hours. It was 2 days and then did move to 1 day, 23 hours, but has not moved since.
Is there any way to speed up this disk repair? Would connecting over ethernet rather than WiFi help? Should I go somewhere with a faster internet connection than my home (1.1Mbps Down / 1.6 Up)? It can't possibly take over 2 days to repair the disk under normal conditions, right?

A hard wire connection should be faster than wifi. If you have been running Disk Utility Repair for 8 hrs, try is again and if after an hour you still see the same result, I suspect that the HDD is faulty.
I would try an external boot HDD and see if the MBP can boot from that. If it can, than that indicates that your internal HDD has failed and must be replaced. Transfer as much data as you can.
Ciao.

Is there any way to permanently delete the downloads in tunes that start everytime I open iTunes?

With Snow Leopard if you delete a file (put it the trash) and then do a secure delete it's gone.
The OP is adressing SSD's in particular. Neither Snow Leopard nor Lion have the ability to secure erase an SSD of a single file by user action. This because SSD's write data in pages, but can only delete in blocks. Secure emptying of the trash on an SSD is no different than a non-secure erase, as the controller will not permit erasure of blocks until the entire block is freed, which is almost never the case with even group file deletion. Erasure is simply the re-writing of the "allocation table" that the pages are no longer in use.
SSD's are only rendered "erased" of previous data after an indeterminate period of use, and re-use that would eventually free blocks for re-write, and then actually over-written.
TRIM helps speed this process, but does not alleviate the block versus page issue.
Some additional info.

Is ther any way to speed up SCP.

Hi,
I am restoring DB from previous cold backup of DB(on another machine).
but scp took app. 36hrs to copy datafiles(in .gz format)
is ther any way to speed up this copy for future.
DB size is app 1600GB
DB version 10.2.0.3
Sun 5.9

Use FTP or NFS instead of SCP - or split the file to be transferred in pieces and transfer in parallel.

Any way to speed up the "faces" process?

I used to use picasa and their faces system was very efficient. You could approve hundreds at a time. Is there any way to speed it up in iPhoto? I have about 10,000 photos, and it only seems to show 3 faces at a time.
iPhoto 11

No, that does not sound right at all. ( 5 is a lot of movies to cart around on your pad.....)
Hopefully you are doing this on your home wifi set up, and trying to use cell, or Starbucks.
Is your home system normally that slow?
You can test your system speed by download one of many speed apps available like 'speed test'. And if you are any sort of decent service, you should get a speed of at least 2 mbps, and potentially as hig as 20 Mbps .
If your connection is fine, then something else is going on. Suggest you cancel the download, and try again. It may be you are getting hung up at the server end.
If your connection, however, is real slow, there is nothing you can do about it except to find a faster wifi spot. ( the speed test app will let you test)

Welcome to the Apple Community.
It's do-able, but I don't think it's a great idea.
DVI
Some users with DVI have managed to get their TV's to work with DVI-HDMI cables. DVI carries no audio, so alternative connections need to be explored to enable audio. DVI doesn't necessarily support HDCP as well as other standards used by HDMI (which may or may not be an issue)
Analogue
There are hardware converters that will convert HDMI to various other types of output, however there are some issues with doing so that you should be aware of.
HDCP
HDCP compliant converters will not allow you to watch HDCP protected content such as that from the iTunes Store. Non compliant converters exist but we cannot discuss them under the Terms of Use for these communities.
Resolution and aspect ratio
I'm not aware of any converters that will scale the output from the Apple TV, any TV or projector which is used will need to be widescreen and support resolutions of 720p (Apple TV 2), 720p/1080p (Apple TV 3)
DAC

Not natively. That requires the newer processor. You will have to use Airparrot

The phone will automatically re-appear when it connects to the Internet. However, don't get your hopes up, as thieves know this & will make sure your phone never re-connects so you can locate it.

Maybe your internet is very slow.
Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

When sharing screen from work with my home computer, is there any way to turn off the display at home?

Hi, sorry if this is a silly question, but when I'm viewing my desktop on the home computer from work (as in I've connected by finding my computer in the finder and hit the "Share Screen" button - is there any way to turn off the display at home? It seems a bit of a waste of power to have the screen on when I'm not actually there - I just need to be able to see all my programs etc on the remote screen in order to use them. My home computer is a 2011 iMac running latest Mountain Lion, work is a 2010 MacBook Pro.
Thanks in advance!
Matt

I've set up another user on my home Mac and left that one logged in. Now when I connect from work it asks me if I want to share the screen or log on virtually as my user. I think choosing the second option doesn't power up the screen.
