Mac is slow to load webpages and PC is fast, Why?

I have an iMac g5 with an airport card. The problem I have is that when I open up any web page it takes 3 to 4 times longer to load than my windows based laptop loading the same pages. I have a Microsoft wireless G router set up on my home PC. Now here is the very strange thing. When I connect to my neighbors unsecured network (with their permission) I notice that the webpages load much faster but still not as fast as my windows based laptops or home PC. has anyone had this problem before? Any idea of what I should do? I have thought about additional memory to help with some processing performance, but I know that cant be the solution.

Joel, under system preferences, energy saver go to options and make sure your processor performance is set to highest. When I changed mine from automatic to highest things started moving a quite a bit faster. I found the following on an old Appleinsider forum:

did 3 tests changing the processor performance option in the energy saving
Using Xbench, system settings are, iMac G5 1.6Ghz 512Mb RAM
1) processor performance on lowest Xbench score 76.90
2) processor performance on Auto Xbench score 97.25
3) processor performance on Highest Xbench score 131.29
interesting stuff, I was suprised that it actually made a difference, the frame rates improved the most on the low settings they were getting 80 ish fps and then on highest it was getting 150-160 fps, the fans come on more but its speeds up the computer so much."

  • Macbook is slow to load webpages and youtube videos are stopping

    I just recently purchased a Macbook pro, however, its been slow to load webpages, youtube videos, etc.  The youtube videos frequently stop playing and I have to reload the page.  Its not the connection and I havent had the computer long enough to have to clear safari chache.  WHY

    Sorry to bump this, but I'm having the same issue, though it's not a poor router problem (upgraded that hoping it would fix it).
    I tried the OpenDNS and it helped once, then stopped loading Netflix (Netflix, Youtube, and Facebook seem to be common problems, as well as "new" webpages that I don't go to often). If I connect directly to my Ethernet the internet works great. My iPhone connected to WiFi works great. It's just my Macbook pro and it just recently happened when I moved to my new house (I had the same ISP at an apartment and had 0 issues). Any thoughts?

  • Mac Pro Slow to load webpages

    Almost overnight, My MacPro (late 2009 Dual Quad, 2 1Tetra HD) started to REALLY slow down when loading webpages on both Safari and Firefox. Some times , I will get the "safari can't find browser" message...and if I try it again, it will load....after it loads and I go back to in within the same internet session, it is usually ok. And these are my topsites that I go to all the time. Did not know if anyone had any ideas. I tried to find if there were some type of diagnostic software, but could not find it.
    Could I possibly have a virus...if so any suggestions on how to rid myself of it.

    Sig shows 10.4 my friend!
    Also, 3 x 2GB (or 4 x 2GB) is basic, I would hate to see someone running with less than 6GB, and some have a need for 12-24GB easily.
    Keep your system in good shape with SuperDuper and Disk Warrior (clone it over to a new drive). Installing a system and apps can really fragment all the free space and while files may not be, it still helps to clone once in awhile, and optimize free space etc.
    For some apps, 8GB really is not a lot (CS4/5 for instance_) though I'm sure you'll find those that say their system is 'fine' with that amount for their work. Others really need more (fast raid0 for boot; scratch; and media).
    Avoid 'green' drives for active work. And while fast, a full 1TB drive full track seek is still going to be slow... another reason to clone/optimize.

    It turns out that the problem went away after I replaced my modem. Since both my internet and phone seemed to be erratic, and after many calls to the cable company, I decided to replace the modem. Amazingly, the whole system speeded up. Problem resolved.

  • MacBook Pro, Mid 2012 slow to load applications and startup

    Problem description:
    I have a MacBook Pro 13 inch, mid 2012 computer. Over the past months it has become increasingly slower during load up, and application loads.
    Running OS X Yosemite
    Processor: 2.9 GHz, Intel Core i7
    Memory 8GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Graphics Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB
    I installed an application Memory Clean from the App Store and I need to run it every so often to keep the load down. It shows of the 8GB available, App Memory eating up 3.32 GB, File Cache 2.25 GB, Wired 1.16 GB, Compressed 122.03 MB for used 6.80 GB.
    I am considering upping the memory from 8 GB to 16 GB, but think it is something else dragging it down. I am not a total computer newbie, but am no where near a techomage so any advice given if it could be in simple to follow instructions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks for any advice given, have a great day.

    How to manage intermittent lag in OS X Yosemite | MacIssues
    Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
    1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
        b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    4. Reinstall Yosemite: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.
    5. Reinstall Yosemite from Scratch:
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.

  • Why is my mac so slow i have cleansed and cleaned it is a 2010 mac mini i5 but it runs like a 20 year old pc i have only had it for a few months and it was straight out of the box

    why is my mac so slow i have cleansed and cleaned it is a 2010 mac mini i5 but it runs like a 20 year old pc i have only had it for a few months and it was straight out of the box

    I'm thinking that you have a > Mac mini (Mid 2011) - Technical Specifications because the 2010 model's only have Core 2 Duo processors and the 2011 had the first i5 processor. 
    2 GB of RAM is the minimum requirement for Mountain Lion, but it's hardly enough to really enjoy doing anything else.
    see > Memory and Free Installation Guides for Apple Mac Mini
    Plus I don't have any problems running Mountain Lion and a load of App's on my 2010 Mac Mini with 8GB of RAM.

  • Cannot directly open the browser from the icon. "problem loading webpage" and "timed out" are the messages. Access was accomplished by using yahoo messenger and opening my email. if I attempt to open a new page, I recieve the aforementioned warnings.

    no link to open access to the internet. I used Yahoo Messenger, clicked on the 'mail icon' and since Firefox is my default it opened and I was able to continue from there. If I try to click File, open New Page, I get the "problem loading webpage" and "connection timed out" messages

    changed my homepage to Yahoo. Now Firrefox works but still cannot access ANYTHING 'Google"!

  • Firefox 12 is very slow to load pages and if two tabs are opening it lags.

    Firefox 12 is very slow to load pages and if two tabs are opening it lags. I've tried everything (e.g virus, defrag, I've created a new profile in "run", etc). I've had my router/line etc all checked and after 2 weeks of cleaning/testing etc its all pointing to Firefox as the problem. Please help as it's driving me nuts.

    I have the exact same problem.
    Not only does it load pages very slowly, sometimes the page will stop for a good 45 seconds and stop loading, only to finish it much later.
    Something is wrong with Firefox 12, it shouldn't be this slow.
    How is that each version is progressively worse than the one before it?.
    Stop releasing so many versions Mozilla, release one that works and build from there.

  • Mac seems slow to load  web pages and email since mavericks upgrade

    Since upgrade from Mountain Lion to Mavericks on my iMac, web pages seem a lot slower to load on screen. Also, when I open my mail inbox, the mail content (wording) takes a long time before appearing on the right hand side, then followed a little later with the display content. I have synchronised all my mail accounts and also emptied my cache in the safari browser, but this has not resolved the problem.

    Go to Applications (you can do this by clicking on the desktop and hitting cmd-shift-A). Within the Utilities folder you should see a program called Terminal. Launch this program, which should just be a window that you can type into. Type the following (or just copy and paste into the window) and hit return:
         networksetup -setv6off Wi-fi
    Then go back to Network Preferences and verify that IPv6 is set to off. If that doesn't help, enter these two commands in succession:
         cd /Library/Preferences/
         sudo mv com.apple.security-common.plist ~/Desktop/
    Note that this moves a configuration file onto your desktop. If that doesn't fix things you may want to put it back:
         cd /Library/Preferences/
         sudo mv ~/Desktop/com.apple.security-common.plist .
    Good luck!

    OK, thanks. First, open Disk Utility and the Repair Disk Permissions on your internal HD. You can find DU in Applications - Utilitie. After doing so please restart in Safe Mode, this is easily done by holding down the Shift Key on your keyboard when you hear the start up tone, you will see a progress bar appear letting yuo know it's starting in Safe Mode. Then reset the SMC and PRAM, instructions can be found by clicking iMac SMC and PRAM reset. Then retest.

  • Mac running slow - Not loading web pages

    Something is wrong with my Mac. Out of the blue, over the last few days, it is running extremely slow.  Web pages won't load or if they finally do it takes forever.  The little spin wheel just keeps going. Sometimes a page will load after a very long time but as I scroll down, only part of the page is there and the rest never loads.  I'm on a wireless connection.  My husbands PC and my iPad are working just fine so it's not the connection.  Any thoughts on what is wrong and how to fix it?  Have not made any changes to my computer.  No new software, updates, etc.

    You are using Safari to surf the web?
    If so, try emptying the cache more often ..
    Command + Option + E
    Then quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that doesn't help, try troubleshooting extensions and third party plug-ins.
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that off if there are any installed. Quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn extensions back on then uninstall one a time to test.
    If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
    Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect:  Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.

  • Slow to load webpages over Airport, but not Ethernet

    I just bought a Macbook (basic configuration) and am frustrated when using the internet. Every time I try to load a webpage, it takes a long time to load, but once the images start appearing, the rest is very fast. This only happens when using Airport wireless. I hooked up the Macbook via ethernet cable to my wireless router, and everything is blazing fast. I'm running an iMac G5 (PowerPC) via wireless airport in the same room, and no problems there - everything on the iMac is very fast. What is the issue with airport on my Macbook?
    Macbook   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    one thing to check is to make sure it's your network that your macbook is connecting to. mine sometimes is a little buggy and will connect to the neighbor's signal instead, which of course is very weak, and will take forever to load a webpage.
    another thing to try is to reset your wireless router. first, turn your airport off on your macbook. then unplug your wireless router for a minute. then plug it back in. wait a few seconds, then enable the airport on your macbook.
    also, try different browsers. download the deerpark build of firefox. deerpark has an intel-mac specific build of firefox that works better than regular firefox. i've found it to be the fastest browser for the mac.

  • Firefox browser continues to hang and sometimes crashes when trying to load more than 10 bookmarks in tabs. Please help with my request as I would like to choose which tabs will load webpages and have all others stopped.

    ''locking as a duplicate - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/876430''
    I have thousands of favorites and Firefox is my web-browser of choice. Sadly I'm backed up on what bookmarks I have stored and if the websites are still active or not.

    My PC supports Windows 7 OS which I have as a multiboot alternative when my PC starts up.
    I have continually waited and it says Firefox is not responding and I may be able to see the multiple tabs opened in my browser but cannot navigate or access them.
    I have read on various sites that users have had as many as 1500 bookmarks load at once in tabs in the Firefox browser version that are outdated.
    I have not been successful with just loading 50 bookmarks my goal is to be able to have 500 tabs loaded in firefox with webpage loading stopped on all of them. I will choose reload for about 10 tabs at a time to view webpage content and then close and move on to the rest.
    My ultimate goal is to clear up the Thousands of bookmarks I have piling on for the past 6 years and some are duplicates or similar page sites.
    Their is no Firefox 3rd party addons that I could locate that would allow this. Only to restrict the number of tabs loaded by giving warning messages when limit is reached.
    Please assist me as it will greatly help me with finally deleting and re-organizing my Favorite and frequent websites in my Browser of choice Firefox.
    The email is generic for privacy but it is valid please respond with methods on how I can achieve my request or suggestions on how I can modify my browser or PC settings to allow this. Thanks Firefox Administration Team.
    I edited with a recent Workaround added to Troubleshoot section.
    If there is a keyboard shortcut or easier way to do this would someone please let me know?

    Firebug is notorious for causing problems like you described.
    Disable it when you don't need it or install it in a 2nd Profile. Then you can launch the 2nd Profile separately to use Firebug and not affect what you are doing in the 1st Profile,

  • BT Infinity Hub 3 slow to load pages and drops out...

    Hi can anyone help, I have had Infinity option2 for less than a month and it has not work properly since it was installed,
    done all the around the houses with help from India and they have thanked me for my patience and acknowledge there
    is a fault which they say they have fixed, but it's getting worse.
    When I do a speed test I get 36Mb down and 8Mb up, great but when I am loading websites they usually take a long time to load and frequently drop out, when I hit the diagnose connection they usually load. I also cannot send or sometimes receive email from my accounts, with server error fault messages also my webcam does not work I can here them but they cannot here me, never had these problems with my previous ISP on only 8Mb.
    Thank you, getting desperate now!

    Mate, I feel your pity as, although I've only had Infinity for 4 days, I'm having the exact same problem and NEVER had this issue in the 4 years I was on BT Total Broadband.  To summarise:
    Day 1 - Everything worked perfectly
    Day 2 - Internet would not load one single page
    Day 3 - Working perfectly again
    Day 4 - Most pages load, albeit VERY slow
    BT India have told me that I have a fault in my line and an engineer will call me back in the next 24/48 hours.  Apparently I was the first person on my cabinet to have Infinity installed so I'm guessing I'm the guinea pig!!!
