It Takes hours to load my iPad .. Is that normal?

It Takes the whole Night to load my iPad 100 per Cent. Is that normal?

Are you using the charger that comes with the iPad?
Many USBs do not supply sufficient current to effectively charge the iPad.

The iOS 8.0.2 has been downloading for an hour on my iPad, is that normal?

Yes. Your product list shows that you're currently running iOS 7.1.2, and whenever you make a major update, i.e. iOS 7 to 8, it's a large file which can take a while to download.

because I think it's too long?

What makes you think it's too long? Actually 35 seconds is pretty fast.

Why do Youtube video clips and all others, for that matter, take hours to load and never play properly?

My java script is enabled, my machine running latest versions of Firefox and Windows and yet it is impossible to download and play any video clips as it takes forever to load and play and still does not play the clips as they were intended.

Since you mention Internet Explorer, I assume that you are on Windows.
Do you sometimes clear your browser cache? (Tools | Internet Options | tab General | Delete browsing history)
Do you sometimes clear Flash Player local storage? (Control Panel | Flash Player Settings Manager | tab Storage | Delete all)
Does enable/disable Hardware Acceleration make any difference? (See http://forums.adobe.com/thread/891337)

Why does it take hours to backup my iPad?

Why is it that when I try to back up my iPad the backup starts alright but after a short while it seems to grind to a halt. I have made it a habit to monitor the affected folder on my MacBook Pro and it is pretty clear that, although the backup indicator in iTunes keeps on spinning, the backup files remain unaffected after the halt. My present attempt, for example, has now been going on for two hours and 45 minutes without any indication of it coming to an end.
My solution to this slight inconvenience is to delete the backup file from within iTunes and create a completely new backup. This, however doable, is not too convenient because it takes some extra time to do this.
So what am I to do about this. Should I just patiently sit tight and hope for the backup to complete (hoping it will) at some undetermined future point in time? Or is there any other way of coming to grips with this?

Shouldn't take that long although waiting a long time in between syncs can create longer backup times... ie more data, apps, etc... to back up etc... Make sure both iPad and iTunes are most current versions. Make sure you are using the iPad sync cord that came with the device and not another from a iPhone or iPod. Cables can screw up the deal.
Start there first and let us know how it goes.

My Macbook is working very slow lately. it did beach balling for sometimes and that stopped when i installed OS X snow leopard on it. but the problem is still there with loading videos. XBMC takes hours to load a movie and youtube do not work as it use to

How is it that my Apple TV will instantly stream a Netflix movie yet it takes HOURS to load a movie rental?

I've tried everything. It makes no sense. So, Apple has made a Netflix device??? Anyone else have this problem and find a solution? I would really like to watch my movie right now rather than 1 hour and 26 minutes from now (currently the amount if time left before movie is ready to play).

AppleTV movie rentals are HD by default.
They are fixed size and weigh in around 3-4 GB size compared to 1-1.5GB for SD.
Enough of the movie has to download to allow it to play back without interruption - this is calculated and you get a 'ready to start in' figure. If you use the AppleTV for other things while waiting for a rental, unfortunately it seems to flush the part already downloaded so you have to start from scratch again.
If you go to iTunes Store Setting in AppleTV and disable HD rentals, it's likely any newer rentals (not existing ones) will play quicker in SD.
Test your sustained download speed somewhere like speedtest.net - you are probably getting around 2-3Mbps. A connection of around 6-8 Mbps is needed for near instant streaming. If your sustained speed is good it could be traffic shaping by your ISP, use of some DNS servers or even Apple's servers playing up.
Netflix on the other hand reduces stream quality for slower connections so plays almost immediately whatever the connection speed.

Logic Express takes 4-6 hours to load a Garageband project!??!!

When I open projects I have made with Garage Band in Logic Express, it takes 4-6 hours to load the song. Thats obviously not the way it is supposed to be.
On another machine I have Logic Pro. There opening a Garageband project is fast -30 sec or so.
Maybe I am crying for help? Or maybe there is something wrong with the software?
I have all my Garageband instruments on the startup volume, while I have most of my loops on another volume. That works just fine with Garageband. It also works fine with Logic Pro under 10.3.9.
The Garageband loops are on an external USB disk, and this hard disk is spinning constantly during those hours. Logic Express puts up messages like "Loading Audio Files for "Cellos.exs"" during this time. Incidentally Logic Express is not responding during this time, The above dialog say one can press command period to cancel the operation, but that does not work. All that is working is killing the application process.
The above behaviour occurs wether I have any loops in the project or not.
Is there a solution to this? Having all loops on the startup volume is not possible.

Thank you very much 'Windham Hillbilly'.
Yes, saving the song as an archive from GarageBand gives fast loading in Logic Express, fully comparable to my Logic Pro loading of non archive songs.
So, this takes care of the issue for me.
Now, if there really should be a 4-6 hour load time in the first place is a different matter.

HT1551 When i tried to purchase a movie, My Apple TV said it would take 11 hours to load. Any ideas about what to do or what is going on with that?

When i tried to purchase a movie, My Apple TV said it would take 11 hours to load. Any ideas about what to do or what is going on with that?

It always has a very high number at the beginning, but it never takes that long....
However, it can take several hours....I've found this to be true on any device or computer I've downloaded movies or tv shows on - Mac, PC, iPad, Kindle Fire....you name it.
However, even if it does take a long time, that does not prevent you from starting to watch it as soon as it has done a little downloading. Here is the Apple link for typical download times:

IPad takes hours to sync photos

Hi all
When I first got my iPad in October, it synced all photos fine. I had loads of folders on there and could add new ones whenever I wanted to, quickly.
All of a sudden when I sync my iPad it optimizes every single photo and takes hours and hours to sync.
This is utterly ridiculous considering there are over 2000 photos, it does it for every one each time! How can I leave my iPad syncing for hours every single time I want to add new photos, why cant it just be like adding new music it takes a few seconds to add the new items!
I have searched and searched on internet forums for an answer and they all just say NO cant turn it off. So basically I cannot have photos on my iPad as the function is NOT efficient and fast like it used to be. I havent changed anything at all, all I want is my photos of my baby girl on my iPad.
Please someone help, there must be a way around this.
Thanks

This happened to me, and I found that the process was slow because I was using a separate hard drive (connected to my wireless modem) to store the photos on.
When I connected my pc directly to my wireless modem using a cable, then disabling wireless, I found the sync speed was much faster.

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 does it take 121 hours to load a movie on AppleTV?

Why does it take 121 hours to load a movie on AppleTV? We are connected to Wifi with a good signal, but nothing seems to work well. We can play music for awhile, but then it just drops us. Tried apple support, not available 'til tomorrow. Purchased yesterday.
Actually we watched the movie yesterday, and now it has to load again. It's on the ipad and plays, no problem. Want to watch it on the tv. Any Thoughts?
Ready to take it back.

Apple TV has no accessible storage, it will need to load each time. The time it takes is dependent on your network.
What is your current connection via speedtest.net
Make sure DNS is set to auto (settings - general - network)
The signal/network test on the device won't give a proper indication if there is a network issue. You will need to try ethernet to help rule that out, and it will also help to get a network report (istumbler, netstumbler or similar. It will show signal strength and noise as well as nearby networks)

Itunes store takes up to an hour to load front page

we just got a new mac and itunes takes up to an hour to load the front page of the store, when it finally does load if you click on tv shows (all I have done so far) it takes over an hour and by then I just gave up. Our internet connection is super fast. It says all the updates are current.

Are you connected via a router? Could be the router setting. Try connecting directly to your modem and see what happens. Worth a shot.
From there, if it doesn't help, maybe look into your security settings. Play around with your firewall and anti-virus if you have them. Maybe disable them for a bit and see if the wait decreases.
