ITunes sync takes too long, need overhaul

7 stages to sync an iPhone or iPad and only when is #7's progress bar fully complete and there is a looooooonnnnnnng wait does it start to copy photos, movies & music.
Is Apple taking lessons from Windows on how a progress bar is supposed to work?
I write this as I wait for some sign the phone is actually having media copied to it. I have restarted my phone, iTunes and the computer. No matter what it refuses to budge beyond 7 of 7.
I’m on a fully loaded 2 x 2.66 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon.
I’ve owned an iPhone 3, 4,4s,5, 5s and now a iPhone 6.
Since the very beginning, no matter what I do the syncing takes (IMHO) way too long and the visual feedback is very badly designed.
I’m no expert but I’d like to think that maybe there should be 8 or 10 stages where the copying of various media is indicated and the progress bar is indicative of the whole progress.

Applefish...
I agree! I have three Airport Extremes, ultimate cable modem download steaming, and Apple TV, AND IT STILL TAKES LONGER TO LOAD THAN THE MOVIE ITSELF!!! Apple needs to pay attention to its technology advancements and less about its PC gender politics. We all respect equality, but we deserve equality of quality and Apple TV and iTunes is radically under performing.
All I wanted to do was enjoy a movie via iTunes and Apple TV...so I purchased "The Book Thief" via iTunes store...and more than two hours later... guess what...no movie... thanks for a virtually wasted evening Apple... I want my $14.99 back.
BTW, I have purchased two iMAC 27" i7 computers, an iPhone 6, an iPhone 5S, and two MacBook Air laptops, and an iPad Air 2 - 128 GB (to go with the other 5 iPads I already own)...all within the past 9 months. Today I bought a 15" MacBook Pro... so don't tell me I'm not up to my ears in Apple...
It's time to fix this Apple TV / iTunes loading issue. God delivered the 10 commandments in stone in less time...

IPad loses all charge because sync takes too long

MY daughter has not synced her iPad for ages. Now when she tries to do this it takes so long the iPad runs out of power before the sync is complete! Any idea what she can do?

well if she sync over wifi then connecting it to ac would fix it
if she sync over usb then even if many computers dont provide enough power over usb to charge
ipads then at least they should provide enough for it to hold it's charge
if yours for some reason dont you could use an ac powered usb hub

Ipod takes too long to connect

I just bought an 80 gb 5.5 gen ipod last week and everything was great, but now when i plug it into the PC it takes too long to detect it as a disc drive and once i open the itunes it takes too long to show the info i have stored, and sometimes only shows the music folder (no movies, tvshows, podcasts, etc) Is something wrong with my ipod?
Maybe is because of the songs and videos i already have... but i have more than 60 gb free.
It has also crashed twice while using the search feature, it just resets for itself.

Alright so I found the answer to part of my question just now. Thinking when I first got my iPod Touch, I remembered that backups weren't as long. Then I thought to when things started getting worst, and I figured out that it started when I put too many apps on my iPod. So i removed all of them and my backup was the fastest I've seen in a while. Then I just but back the ones I really wanted and everything seems fine....for now.

Sometimes my computer takes too long to connect to new website. I am running a pretty powerful work program at same time, what is the best solution? Upgrading speed from cable network, is it a hard drive issue? do I need to "clean out" the computer?

Many times my computer takes too long to connect to new website. I have wireless internet (time capsule) and I am running a pretty powerful real time financial work program at same time, what is the best solution? Upgrading speed from cable network? is it a hard drive issue? do I only need to "clean out" the computer? Or all of the above...not to computer saavy. It is a Macbook Pro osx 10.6.8 (late 2010).

Almost certainly none of the above! Try each of the following in this order:
Select 'Reset Safari' from the Safari menu.
Close down Safari; move <home>/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db to the trash; restart Safari.
Change the DNS servers in your network settings to use the OpenDNS servers: 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220
Turn off DNS pre-fetching by entering the following command in Terminal and restarting Safari:
defaults write com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled -boolean false

Agreed. I hope they allow this some time soon or iTunes Match will remain a big disappointment for me.

Apple TV Gen 3 takes too long to load 15,000 photos. Do I need to go back to ATV Gen 1?

I just purchased Apple TV (Gen 3) It takes too long to load my over 15,000 photos for viewing. This was never a problem with my ATV (Gen 1). Do I need to go back to ATV Gen 1?

Do you have a technical question?
What have you done to troubleshoot?
Typically issues like this are related to the local network. First thing would be to try ethernet, if on wifi. Make sure router is up to date. Reboot ATV, router.
You can go to istumbler (Mac) or netstumbler (PC) to get a report of the network.

Why ipad 2 / iphone 3g resetting takes too long?

Im trying to reset and delete all content of my ipad and iphone 3g by choosing the selections about resetting on the general. Why it takes too long to reset my ipad / iphone 3g? It is almost 2 days my ipad are on the apple logo / looping circle appears on it and still im waiting for my ipad / iphone 3g to return to main screen. What will i do? Thanks...

There is no other way except to restore the iPad - plain and simple. You have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.
You will need to use recovery mode
iPad: Unable to update or restore

Why finding replication stream matchpoint takes too long

hi,
I am using bdb je 5.0.58 HA(two nodes group,JVM 6G for each node).
Sometimes, I found bdb node takes too long to restart(about 2 hours).
When this occurs, I catch the process stack of bdb(jvm process) by jstack.
After analyzing stack,I found "ReplicaFeederSyncup.findMatchpoint()" taking all the time.
I want to know why this method takes so much time,and how can I avoid this bad case.
Thanks.

Liang,
2 hours is indeed a huge amount of time for a node restart. It's hard be sure without doing more detailed analysis of your log as to what may be going wrong, but I do wonder if it is related to the problem you reported in outOfMemory error presents when cleaner occurs [#21786]. Perhaps the best approach is for me to describe in more detail what happens when a replicated node is connecting with a new master, which might give you more insight into what is happening in your case.
The members of a BDB JE HA replication group share the same logical stream of replicated records, where each record is identified with a virtual log sequence number, or VLSN. In other words, the log record described by VLSN x on any node is the same data record, although it may be stored in a physically different place in the log of each node.
When a replica in a group connects with a master, it must find a common point, the matchpoint, in that replication stream. There are different situations in which a replica may connect with a master. For example, it may have come up and just joined the group. Another case is when the replica is up already but a new master has been elected for the group. One way or another, the replica wants to find the most recent point in its log, which it has in common with the log of the master. Only certain kinds of log entries, tagged with timestamps, are eligible to be used for such a match, and usually, these are transaction commits and aborts.
Now, in your previous forum posting, you reported an OOME because of a very large transaction, so this syncup issue at first seems like it might be related. Perhaps your replication nodes need to traverse a great many records, in an incomplete transaction, to find the match point. But the syncup code does not blindly traverse all records, it uses the vlsn index metadata to skip to the optimal locations. In this case, even if the last transaction was very long, and incomplete, it should know where the previous transaction end was, and find that location directly, without having to do a scan.
As a possible related note, I did wonder if something was unusual about your vlsn index metadata. I did not explain this in outOfMemory error presents when cleaner occurs but I later calculated that the transaction which caused the OOME should only have contained 1500 records. I think that you said that you figured out that you were deleting about 15 million records, and you figured out that it was the vlsn index update transaction which was holding many locks. But because the vlsn index does not record every single record, it should only take about 1,500 metadata records in the vlsn index to cover 15 million application data records. It is still a bug in our code to update that many records in a single transaction, but the OOME was surprising, because 1,500 locks shouldn't be catastrophic.
There are a number of ways to investigate this further.
- You may want to try using a SyncupProgress listener described at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17277_02/html/java/com/sleepycat/je/rep/SyncupProgress.html to get more information on which part of the syncup process is taking a long time.
- If that confirms that finding the matchpoint is the problem, we have an unadvertised utility, meant for debugging, to examine the vlsn index. The usage is as follows, and you would use the -dumpVLSN option, and run thsi on the replica node. But this would require our assistance to interpret the results. We would be looking for the records that mention where "sync" points are, and would correlate that to the replica's log, and that might give more information if this is indeed the problem, and why the vlsn index was not acting to optimize the search.

After updating my iphone 5s to 7.1 ... the keyboard is crashing and it takes too long to respond, what is the solution? if there any link from which we can download the original 7.1 firmware for A1533 Version?

After updating my iphone 5s to 7.1 ... the keyboard is crashing and it takes too long to respond, what is the solution? if there any link from which we can download the original 7.1 firmware for A1533 Version?

Restoring the iPhone will reload its firmware.
Plug the iPhone into (the current version of) iTunes on your computer.
Let it sync. Then choose "Restore" from the iPhone's summary page in iTunes.

RPURMP00 program takes too long

Hi Guys,
Need some help on this one guys. Not getting any where with this issue.
I am running RPURMP00 ( Program to Create Third-Party Remittance Posting Run ) and while running it in test mode for 1 employee it takes too long .
I ran this in background during off hours , but it takes 19,000 + sec to run and then cancels .
The long text message is No entry in table T51R6_FUNDINFO (Remittance detail table for all entities) for key 0002485844    and     Job cancelled after system exception ERROR_MESSAGE
I check the program and I found a nested loop within the program (include RPURMP02 ) and decided to debug it with a break point.
It short dumped and here is the st22 message and source code extract.

AME CS6 rendering with AE and Pr takes too long

Hi Guys,
Need some help here. i have rendered a 30 secs mp4 video with 1920 x 1080 HD format 25 frames w/o scripting in AME for 4 hours!
Why does it take too long? I have rendered a 2 minute video with same format w/ scripting but only spare less than 30 minutes for rendering.
Im using After Effects and Premium Pro both CS6 and using Dynamic Link in AME.
What seems to be wrong in my current settings?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

This may be a waste of time, but it won't take a minute and is something you should always do whenever things go strangely wrong ............ trash the preferences, assuming you haven't done it already.
Many weird things happen as a result of corrupt preferences which can create a vast range of different symptoms, so whenever FCP X stops working properly in any way, trashing the preferences should be the first thing you do using this free app.
http://www.digitalrebellion.com/prefman/
Shut down FCP X, open PreferenceManager and in the window that appears:-
1. Ensure that only FCP X is selected.
2. Click Trash
The job is done instantly and you can re-open FCP X.
There is absolutely no danger in trashing preferences and you can do it as often as you like.
The preferences are kept separately from FCP X and if there aren't any when FCP X opens it automatically creates new ones . . . instantly.

Drill Through reports takes too long

Hi all,
I need some suggestions/help with our drill through reports. We are using Hyperion 11.1.1.3 and the cube is ASO.
We have drill through reports set up in Essbase studio for drilling down from Essbase to Oracle database. It takes too long (like 30 mins for fetching 1000 records) and the query is simple.
What are the changes that we can do to bring down this time. Please advice.
Thanks.

Hi Glenn,
We tried optimizing the drill through SQL query but actually when we run the directly in TOAD it takes *23 secs* but when we do drill through on the same intersection
it took more than 25 mins. Following is our query structure :
(SELECT *
FROM "Table A" cp_594
INNER JOIN "Table B" cp_595 ON (cp_594.key = cp_595.key)
WHERE (Upper(cp_595.*"Dim1"*) in (select Upper(CHILD) from (SELECT * FROM DIM_TABLE_1 where CUBE = 'ALL') WHERE CONNECT_BY_ISLEAF = 1 START WITH PARENT = $$Dim1$$ CONNECT BY PRIOR CHILD = PARENT UNION ALL select Upper(CHILD) from DIM_TABLE_1 where CUBE = 'ALL' AND REPLACE('GL_'||CHILD, 'GL_IC_', 'IC_') = $$Dim1$$))
And ----same for 5 more dimensions
Can you suggest some improvement ? Please advice.
Thanks
