Long time to uninstall app

It's a few time that I'm experiencing a strange problem, when I want to uninstall an app, I long Tap the app, tap the "x", and wait, and wait, and wait, more or less one minute! Then I have the message are you sure..., Tap OK and the app is deleted.
It happens since I downgrade my iPhone 5, to 4S (I made a backup and restore), yesterday I bought a brand new iPhone 6, and the problem is still there
For many reasons (mainly for to not loose a bunch of messages) I don't won't to reset and start as new phone.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance,
Andrea

The latest update (3.1.3) is supposed to resolve this issue, though I've seen some people here had to do a repair or rebuild on their library after the update. After that everything seems to be working fine for them.
Let us know if that works for you.

  • Taking Long Time to Copy Apps to New Ipod

    Had first gen ipod touch.  Apps and music were usually downloaded directly from iTunes store onto ipod.  Synced it with iTunes to get all purchases into it then hooked up new ipod 4g which was set up as new.  Started a sync with new ipod to copy everything onto it.  Music was copied to new 4g quickly but apps are taking forever.  Seems to be averaging about half an hour per app, sometimes longer.  Any ideas why and how to speed up the process?  On a Windows Vista machine with 2gb ram, latest itunes.

  • It takes a long time to open an app and sometimes it will just crash, any idea how to fix it?

    My four year old Macbook Pro couldn't start yesterday and after going through solutions and all, it worked. But now it's freaking laggy and whenever I want to open an app, it takes a long time or the app will just crash. Any idea how to fix it? I really need the speed and everything back.

    noeleeeen,
    so you have an external hard disk, onto which you deleted/moved files from your internal hard disk, so that you now have 143 GB or so free on your internal hard disk — is that correct? Is the external disk purely for backups (e.g. a Time Machine destination), or does it function as a supplement to your internal disk?
    Was it entirely your personal data files (documents, photos, movies, music, &c.) which you’d deleted or moved to the external disk, or did you also delete/move apps, libraries, &c. over there?
    I’m not familiar with Echofon Lite, so I can’t comment on it, but an Apple-supplied app like the App Store shouldn’t crash.
    Have you tried running Disk Utility yet, to see if its verification process gives your disks its seal of approval?

  • App-V 5 Full Infrastructure Apps take long time to stream to the client

    Hi was wondering if anyone has the same issue as i am or knows a fix for this, below is my problem and the troubleshooting i have done.
    Overview of problem
    App-V 5 apps delivered via App-V 5 full infrastructure take a long time to stream to the client and this means the user has to wait if they try and run an application before it has streamed to the client. Users sometimes have to
    wait 2 or 3 minutes for an application to stream and this is about 40 times slower than basic SMB and HTTP transfer tests show the system is capable of (see performance results below).
    App-V 4.6 apps delivered via App-V 4.6 full infrastructure and HTTP streaming are fine.
    Overview of environment
    App-V 5.0 SP1 Full Infrastructure.
    App-V servers are running Server 2012 on Hyper-V 3 or ESX 5.1 with 2 x vCPU and 4GB RAM.
    SQL servers are a SQL 2012 cluster.
    Separate servers for SQL, management, publishing, content and reporting.
    Management, Publishing and Content servers have two servers per role and NLB to provide load balancing. So 7 servers (2 x Man, 2 x Pub, 2 x Content, 1 x Reporting)
    Two further sites with 2 x Pub and 2 x Content each. All publishing servers pointed at the load balance address for management.
    Content delivered via HTTP
    Clients are physical desktops and laptops running Windows 7 SP1 x86 and Windows 8 x86
    App-V client is 5.0SP1
    Clients are pointed at their nearest publishing server NLB via a script which looks up the client IP address and uses PowerShell to configure the publishing server
    Content is streamed from the nearest content server NLB by setting the PackageSourceRoot to the nearest content NLB (via the same PowerShell script above).
    App-V apps delivered per-user via AD group. One AD group per application. Approximately 200 App-V apps published so far - will eventually reach 400 as we sequence more. About 9000 users.
    Analysis performed so far
    Servers not heavily loaded. CPU averages 5%. Lots of RAM free. Very low disk IO. Problem also occurs out-of-hours so we are 99.9% certain that server resources are not a cause.
    Streaming performance is the same from all 6 content servers and all 3 NLB addresses (tested by changing the value of PackageSourceRoot). Wireshark used to confirm packages are really streaming from the correct location, enforcing
    our belief that the problem isn't at the server end (unless all 6 servers are affected).
    Streaming via both HTTP and SMB2.1 is approximately the same (tested by changing the value of PackageSourceRoot between http://xxxx and \\server\AppVContent).
    Wireshark used to confirm we really are using the protocol we think we are using.
    All clients exhibit the same behaviour. Issue reported by many users. 5 test PCs chosen at random at all 3 sites confirmed to have the slow streaming problem.
    Slow streaming from both Hyper-V and VMware ESX servers.
    Client not heavily loaded.
    Affects all App-V apps although it obviously affects the larger ones more.
    All App-V apps have a Feature Block 1 setup.
    If we copy the ".appv" file from the server to the client via either HTTP or SMB then it's reasonably quick (up to 480Mb/s). So we don't believe the network or servers are at fault. For example:
    We can copy a 149MB .appv file via SMB from the content server to the client in 5 seconds.
    We copy HTTP download the .appv file from the content server using IE on the client in 5 seconds.
    But if you ask the App-V 5 client to fully download the sequence then it takes 2 - 3 minutes.
    The App-V 4.6 client takes about 8 - 10 seconds to fully download a similar sized application.
    App-V 5 publishing works fine - when a new user logs on they get their list of application straight away, it's just the streaming which is slow.
    Once the App-V app has streamed locally it runs fine and with a decent performance.
    Looking at a Wireshark trace of the streaming you can see that the slow performance is due to the transfer stopping and starting a lot. You only notice this when you zoom into the performance graph a fair bit.
    Each time the HTTP server stops sending traffic, it doesn't start again until the client sends a "TCP Window update". Each "stop" is of a different length, but just taking a few from the middle I get 0.06s, 0.11s,
    0.13s wasted etc.
    I can see that it's the client stopping the transfer by reducing its advertised TCP Window Size. I'll provide an example:
    Server sends 9 x 1514 bytes. Client responds with an ACK and a Window size of 54016 bytes (256x211)
    Server sends 11 x 1514 bytes. Client responds with an ACK and a Window size of 37888 bytes (256x148)
    Server sends 10 x 1514 bytes. Client responds with an ACK and a Window size of 23296 bytes (256x91)
    Server sends 15 x 1514 bytes. Client responds with an ACK and a Window size of 1280 bytes (5 x 256)
    Server stops sending (I'm guessing because the client advertised Window size was less than a single packet's worth of bytes)
    <0.1 seconds passes>
    Client sends a "TCP Window Update" re-advertising a TCP window size of 65536 (256x256).
    Server starts transmitting again
    So the way I see this is that the App-V 5 client is controlling the transfer speed by utilising TCP Window flow control. The trace was taken at the client end so there's no room for anything on the network to be fiddling with flow
    control (and we've confirmed there are no traffic shapers in the loop).
    We've also tried streaming directly from the local client by copying some App-V 5 apps down to the client, creating a SMB share on the client and changing PackageSourceRoot to \\localhost\AppVContent (i.e. so we are streaming directly
    from the client to the client - to remove the network from the equation) and there is only an improvement of 5 to 10 seconds. So we know it's nothing to do with the network or the servers.
    We've tried turning off TCP auto-tuning on the client with:
    netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled
    and turning off TCP chimney offloading (which is off anyway because the NIC doesn't support it and Netstat -t output shows "InHost" for offload state for all connections) with:
    netsh int tcp set global chimney=disabled
    and nothing has improved.
    So we've now focussed on the extraction of the .appv (ZIP) file on the client.
    Using Windows Explorer it takes 75 seconds to extract the ZIP file
    Using 7ZIP it takes 9 seconds to extract the ZIP file
    Yeah we've always known that the Explorer ZIP engine is terrible. That's why we use 7ZIP or WinRAR on our clients.
    So we've started to wonder if the problem with the slow App-V 5 streaming is because the client is downloading the .appv file and extracting it as it goes along in a single thread. If the App-V 5 client is using the same terrible
    ZIP engine that Explorer does then that would explain the slow performance. The "download" appears to take a long time because the client is using TCP flow control to slow the transfer since it's extracting the .appv file using a very slow ZIP engine
    and it's all in a single thread.

    Guys,
    Just wanted to give you a brief update basically close this thread as Answered.
    We had submitted 4 App-V 5 Bugs to Microsoft and these were reproducible and an explanation was given on work around to them. Microsoft
    sent down a App-v developer to have a look at our problems. They said they will try and include the Bug fixes in SP2 which should be out in a few weeks or they will definitely be included in SP3.
    In regards to the slow streaming it all came down to the Disk IO.
    We found that you could simply enable "Turn off
    Windows write-cache buffer flushing on the device", then start streaming the app and then disable "Turn
    off Windows write-cache buffer flushing on the device" immediately after
    (we don't want to leave it on) and that basically fixed the issue.
    But a normal user would not have permissions to do
    this, so a code was written to enable and disable this option.
    Apology for not going in detail, like my opening thread, its very late. 
    but if you would like a detailed analysis please message me.
    I would like to Thank the Talented Consultant who designed and implemented are App-V infrastructure who found the bugs and created all
    the work around and who also emailed the detailed analysis of the problems to Microsoft that got them interested.
    Simon Bond from Ultima Business Solutions.
    Thank you

  • I changed my AppleID a long time ago to an email that I no longer use and I have updates for apps that I can't update because my old email is filled in to where i sign in and it wont let me change it to my new one???

    I changed my AppleID a long time ago to an email that I no longer use and I have updates for apps that I can't update because my old email is filled in to where i sign in and it wont let me change it to my new one???

    The problem with those two apps is that they are supposed to be in your Apple ID and you didn't set up the Mac properly/completely when you got it.
    You might try deleteing them and using OS X Recovery to install them again.

  • Takes a long time to connect to the internet when I first open an app

    I bought my Macbook Pro Retina 13inch last weekend and I love it! Everything was working fine but over the last couple of days, when I first open an app, for example Safari, Google Chrome, iTunes, App Store, anything that requires an internet connection, it takes a long time to load up that first time, but after the first page has been loaded it works again fine until closing the app and re-opening it. When loading the App Store or iTunes it has even said an internet connection is required, even though my connection is fine and the other apps are still loading ok.
    I first thought it was my WIFI connection but I have checked my router and everything seems fine, also my iPad and iPhone are still working fine with the internet.
    Has anyone else had the same problem or can offer me a solution?

    I am getting the same issue, on first starting safari the first page takes an age to load.. once it has everything is fine.
    I have tried the 'Reset Safari' function but no difference. This only happens on my Macbook Pro Retina, Using safari on my iphone or ipad is fine. (I connect via ethernet too so its not a wifi problem.)
    Any one got an answer to this yet?

  • It takes a very long time to download an app on my iPad 3

    It takes a very long time to download an app on my iPad 3. My WiFi is OK, and the first 75 % of the program downloads in a fast way, but then it nearly stops. The rest (25%) takes such a long time to install

    my e-mail is [email protected]

  • Why when I click on an app it takes a long time to load, like eBay or Pinterest.

    When I click on my apps, like Pinterest or eBay, it takes an extremely long time to load. This has just recently started happening and to my knowledge nothing has changed. Safari still appears to be running normally. Can anyone help me?

    1. Close all apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
    2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.

  • Snow Leopard 10.6.2 takes a long time to run 'X11.app' (with system log)

    Hello everyone, English is not my mother tongue so may not be exactly correct, sorry about that.
    Background:
    I have a MacBook White (13-inch, Mid 2009) that isn't unibody, and was running Leopard 10.5.
    I did a clean installation and now Snow Leopard 10.6.2, with iLife, iWork, and many many apps.
    I am the only one who will use the Mac and my user account is as the 'admin'.
    I previously had a problem concerning X11 too:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2343732
    *What I've done:*
    (1) rename my HD to 'Michaels_Home' under 'Get Info' from Finder (I can't rename in Disk Utility though)
    (2) press return (enter)
    (3) change my home folder path to the '/Volumes/Michaels_Home/Users/Michael' (http://eshop.macsales.com/Reviews/Framework.cfm?page=Tips/relocate3/relocate3.ht ml)
    (4) restart
    (5) log in and open X11
    (6) problem solved!!
    ==========
    *BUT NOW* I have a problem after:
    (1) log in as the root user, and use command +ditto -V xyz xyz+ to copy my home folder from '/Volumes/Michaels_Home/Users/Michael' to '/Users>Michael'
    (2) change my home folder path to the '/Users/Michael' (http://eshop.macsales.com/Reviews/Framework.cfm?page=Tips/relocate3/relocate3.ht ml)
    (3) use the Mac OS X Snow Leopard USD$29 disc to boot my Mac up
    (4) delete the 'Michaels_Home' partition (I had 3 partitions: (1) Macintosh HD (2) Michaels_Home (3) Windows XP Professional)
    (5) resize the 'Macintosh HD' partition
    (6) boot from Macintosh HD
    (7) find that there's a problem about X11
    _The problem:_
    it takes a *long time* for X11 to start.
    When I try to open the 'X11.app', the X11 icon begins jumping on the Dock, but nothing happens.
    Jumping and jumping... finally, it doesn't jump any more, with just the X11 icon on the dock.
    What's more, there is no white dot under the icon, which means the app isn't running at the moment.
    I right-clicked the icon, it shows me 'application not responding'.
    So, I open the *Activity Monitor*, and I can see there are 3 apps related to X11 are running:
    (1) X11
    (2) X11.bin
    (3) xauth
    *At the moment now, if you would wait for about 1.5 min., X11 will open.*
    Please see below for the system log (from 'FREEZING' to 'WORKING')

    So what actually causes this problem?
    Thanks in advance!

    It turns out that there's something wrong about permissions.
    Here's the fix:
    (1) log in as the +root user+
    (2) type +chown -R Michael:staff ~Michael+
    (3) log out the +root user+
    (4) log in your account
    (5) done!
    Hope this thread will help those who encounter the same problem as me!
