Mail taking way too long to get to my iphone...Rogers network Toronto

Today, on more than one occasion I sent an email from my yahoo account to my .mac account. The email arrived within 2 minutes. I was online the entire time to verify. My iphone, failed to be notified within 30 minutes!! In actual fact, i don;t know how long it would have taken to get the email. The only way I managed to retrieve the email on my iphone was to select the mail application on the iphone and select "inbox". This forces the software to check for mail....This isn't PUSH at all.
Is anyone else experiencing this.?
Thanks
B

the push services are only as good as the pusher I believe. I know my yahoo mail doesn't get pushed very well. Sometimes it's instant other times it's not. My girlfriend's email on a microsoft exchange server activesync is pushed pretty consistently. Given some of the hangups with the mobileme services, I'm not too surprised that the push isn't working great. It's really a mobilme issue I think, and I will let others with the service chime in with their experiences.

Installing OS X on a new hard drive taking way too long?

I switched out my old 250 GB hard drive that shipped with my MacBook Pro for a new 640 GB WesternDigit drive. I'm trying to use a Mavericks installer USB to install on my newly formatted hard drive, but it's taking way too long - I mean, I left it going overnight (about 7.5 hours), and when I came down, it wasn't even half done. Is there anything I can do here? I'd like to use my laptop. Thank you very much for any suggestions.

Do you have a internet connection? Even with a USB installer that if good and functioning properly you need an internet connection to Authenticate the install with your Apple ID.
If your old drive is still functioning you can connect it to your Mac with a SATA to USB adapter and use the Recovery HD on that original drive to reinstall Mavericks on the new drive.
If the drive is no longer functioning and you have no way of getting to the Apple internet download for Mavericks then you will need to start with an install of the original version of OS X that came on your Mac when new then update and or upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and then use the Mac App Store to reinstall Mavericks. There is not other way to do this. So save yourself some time and trouble and start fresh.
If your original drive is still functioning and it had Mavericks installed on it you can also CLONE that drive to the new one once you connect it to your mac with some type of SATA to USB adapter or enclosure.
If the Mavericks USB installer you have was made from a Mac that came with Mavericks pre-installed on it that will not work on your Mac.

It's taking way too long for my messages to load.

Starting on Tuesday this week (10/14) it is taking way too long for my messages to load from my Gmail account. Once the message finally shows up in the Inbox, it's taking up to 10-15 min for the message to load where I can actually view the message. I'm going to have to move to another email application if this can't be resolved which is very unfortunate as I've enjoyed using Thunderbird up until now.

I guess I'm at least happy to know it's not just me. I've had to abandon Thunderbird for now. I guess I'll keep an eye out for future updates.

OSX installation (and reloading images) taking way too long

Hi everyone.
I've noticed a problem lately: installing OSX (either my original Tiger DVD or my new Leopard DVD) is taking way longer than it should. The same thing also happens when I try to revert back to an older disk image.
I tried installing Leopard yesterday and it said it was going to take 5 hours. Initially I thought it was because the disk I was using was partitioned, so today I have wiped the disk completely, restored it to one partition, and disconnected all my external drives and all but the primary internal ones. That seems to have dropped the install time to 3 hours.
The first thing I did yesterday was try to restore an older image of my Tiger installation. That one was about 60GB in size and, even after 8 hours, the installation had not predicted an actual remaining install time, but from the progress bar, it looked like it would be at least 2 days.
Why in the world would this be happening and has anyone run into it before? All the system checks I ran the other day seemed to indicate things were fine. So am I missing something?
Thanks.
-N

Check the S.M.A.R.T. status of the HDs.
Run DU and repair the HDs if needed.
It's also possible that your optical drive is dying and/or your Tiger CD and Leopard DVDs are dirty or scratched.
A typical Leopard install takes under 1 hour. Anything over 2 indicates some major issues.

Slideshow Taking WAY too long to load

I have a slideshow posted at
http://olyrents.com/slideshow.htm
My client is saying it takes too long to load, and I am
finding that it is loading all of the photos first before you can
scroll through and view them. It's just not functioning properly.
I wonder if someone could look at the actionscript and give
me any suggestions? Maybe there's something else going on?
I have attached the script from the original fla file.
Thanks!

That adds up to somewhere in the realm of 5MB, which isn't
going to be a quick load time, though it might be visually workable
if you separate the loading from the viewing.
One thing you might consider is doing away with the preloader
visual. With 65 images being interupted by 65 preloader screens, it
kinda defeats the potential aethetics of the images and may lead
one to think it's taking a long time to load them as a result.

Query taking way too long

Hello,
Can somebody please help.
I am wanting to change this query so that it does not take too long. How can I do it please?
select count(*), t.tel_no, t.prospect_id, a.ACCOUNT_NO, a.account_title
from tel_nos t, account a
where t.tel_type = 'S'
AND t.prospect_id = a.prospect_id
AND SYSDATE BETWEEN t.start_date AND NVL(t.end_date, SYSDATE)
group by t.tel_no, t.prospect_id, a.ACCOUNT_NO, a.account_title
having count(*) > 1
Thanks in advance.

Tuning is a science not a parlour guessing game. It's hard for us to diagnose the problem you have here as you have given us almost no information. For instance, are you using rule based or cost based optimizer? How big are these two tables? What indexes do they have? What percentage of rows are you expecting the query to return?
Tuning is such a big area that it's hard to know where to begin. I suggest you start at the Oracle docs. Chapters 1, 4 and 5 will set you going.
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/A87860_01/doc/server.817/a76992/toc.htm
Having said all that you may well find this runs faster:
SELECT count(*), t.tel_no, t.prospect_id, a.account_no, a.account_title
FROM   account a, tel_nos t
WHERE t.tel_type = 'S'
AND    sysdate BETWEEN t.start_date AND nvl(t.end_date, sysdate)
AND    t.prospect_id = a.prospect_id
GROUP BY t.tel_no, t.prospect_id, a.account_no, a.account_title
HAVING count(*) > 1
/I leave it to you to work out why (it's nothing to do with clearer layout).

BUNDLE_EXECUTE TAKING WAY TOO LONG TIME. PLEASE HELP

Hi Experts,
Please see that after we ugrade our SEM 4 to SEM 6 along with BW 3.5 to BI 7, I am performing Post Upgrade Testing in Sandbox.
In this process when I tried executing a Global Planning Sequence in Back Ground by Right Clicking the GPS I wish to run and selected Execute PS in Background Option.
But when I am looking at it's status in Job overview, it is running for ever. I still wonder that how come it is taking so long time and I have no clue.
The same GPS when I tried executing the ssame way in DEV and QA servers where the Upgrade is still not happened it is not taking more than 80 Seconds.
So Kindly guide me through this issue. Highly appreciate your valuble inputs.
Thanks and Regards,
BIP

Hi ,
We are facing the same issue in our new parallel systems (SEM 3.2 to SEM 6 along with BW 3.1 to BI 7). Please let us know how you solved the issue.
Our Planning Sequence has just one copy function.
The same GPS when I tried executing in old systems in SEM 3.2 and BW 3.1, it is working fine.
Any solution?
Thanks,
H

Updating 3GS from 3.1.2 to 6.1.3 taking way too long. Is there a better and faster way?

How long does it take to update an original 3GS to 6.1.3? I followed the iTune instructions and it has been updating for hours already. Is there a better and faster way to do this?

SO if I want to represent the London Underground
network as a Graph how would I be able to do it?By writing classes of your own or using some one else's. I don't think that the collections framework has out-of-the-box support for graphs.... So try google first.
The implementation details depend on the API you are going to use, of course...
from A to B 5 min
from B to C 4 min
from A to C 9 min
this information is redundant, the third info should be omitted. <nit-picking>
No it's not - What if there's a special, more direct route from A to C? Also, getting from A to B to C will usually take more time than the time from A to B plus the time from B to C. The trains have to stop at B, don't they?
</nit-picking>
Maybe this approach is more complex, but it solves the problem Have I understood correctly - isn't what you describe just another way to implement a graph?

Min() taking way too long

Hi,
I have two databases, one with 2 million rows and another with 171 million rows. On both boxes when I do a max() it takes milliseconds for the result to return. There is an index on this column.
But when I do a min, on the DB with 2 million its takes about 2-3 minutes and min on the other DB with 171 M it takes only a few milliseconds.
The execution plan seems to be fine, the cost in 1 in both. The only difference is that the one taking most time has large number of physical reads. Could anyone let me know what's happening. Both the DB boxes are exactly the same in terms of configuration.

SELECT statement using XML data taking way too long.

Hi all, I am using SQL Server 2005.
I have an issue which I find hard to describe. The server that I am using contains two test databases which are (supposed to be) identical. They both have tables named EVENTS with identical fields. I am using XML data to query and update data to this table.
When I run the SELECT in one database, against the EVENTS table it takes a long time. The longest I've kept it running is 2:30 minutes. When I run it against the EVENTS table in the other database the results are almost instantaneous. I've created a test
query to duplicate this behavior:
declare @ValidXMLInput xmlset @ValidXMLInput = '<EVENTS>
<EVENT EID="8077" EDATE="2014-07-20 10:15"
USERID="GTJ789" LOCID="7016" STATE="0" />
</EVENTS>'
SELECT Col.value('@EID','VARCHAR(5)'),Col.value('@STATE','INT')
FROM @ValidXMLInput.nodes('//EVENTS/EVENT') Tab(Col)
left join tblEvents on
tblEvents.EvIdNum=Col.value('@EID','VARCHAR(5)') And
tblEvents.EvDate=Col.value('@EDATE','DATETIME') And
tblEvents.UserId=Col.value('@USERID','VARCHAR(8)') And
tblEvents.EvLocId=Col.value('@LOCID','VARCHAR(8)')
where tblEvents.EvIdNum Is Null
Basically, the above query returns all rows in the XML table that are not in the database table. The results are then passed on to other statements.The columns in the join are key fields for tblEvents and have a PK index for both tables (in each db).
Now the issue that I am having. When I use an EID in the XML data of any other value (as presented in the example above), such as '3477' the query runs fast on both databases; however, when I specifically use an EID of '8077' then the query slows down to
a point where it takes more than 2:30 minutes (after which I cancel the execution). This only happens with one of the databases.
For testing purposes I've created an XML structure with only one item. Both tables have approximate 111 million records. One table contains about 900K records with an EID of 8077. The other table contains about 930K records with this EID. There aren't many
differences in the data. The records with the EID of 8077 (the slow one) are for different dates, users and locations. I should also mention that although the data presented here for EID consists of number, provisions exist where the number may be prefixed
by a letter; hence the varchar designation.
My question to you all is: How can I start troubleshooting this issue? Should I be looking at indexes?
I had some doubt about this because the query is fast for other EIDs. Why would it get "stuck" with this particular one?
Any troubleshooting advice is welcomed. Thanks! Saga
Insanity is the prelude to discovery

Some thoughts:
Is there a hardware difference between the two databases ? E.g. are they on the same disk (array) ?
Is there anything else running on your server besides your SQL instance ?
Do you see spikes in I/O, CPU or both ?
Maybe there is locking on one DB that's not happening in the other.
You should check indexes and statistics plus compare estimated execution plan between the two DBs.

Shuffle taking way too long to sync

after updating to itunes 8.o, all of the three shuffles that use that itunes library take forever to sync-even one song or podcast. what happened?? does anyone know how to fix this??

Even though the Shuffle is listed as USB 2.0 compatible it only seems to sync at USB 1.1 speeds. I've had a nano and a shuffle and the nano syncs WAY faster than shuffle (no conversion to 128kbps AAC is taking place)

Slideshow on iPhoto is taking way too long to export...

I created a slideshow of about 1,200 photos on iPhoto with a slide duration of 13 seconds and an HDTV aspect ratio (16:9). When I tried to export the slideshow i noticed it took an excessive amount of time. I attempted to export it 3 times, all of which I had left overnight for the task to be completed, and when I checked on the project in the morning I saw that it had only gotten halfway through the process but it was stuck on "saving slideshow" for the rest of the day. I've checked numerous websites and Google for help but found no answeres. Is there something I'm doing wrong or is there a problem with iPhoto?

I think that a 1200 shot slideshow is too big for iPhoto to work with (and might also prove a challenge to an audience too )
I think you'll need to use a dedicated app for that job, and make sure you have lots and lots and lots of free disk space as the scratch requirements for that will be enormous.
Alternatives to iPhoto's slideshow include:
iMovie, on every Mac sold.
Others, in order of price: PhotoPresenter $29
PhotoToMovie $49.95
PulpMotion $129
FotoMagico $29 (Home version) ($149 Pro version, which includes PhotoPresenter)
Final Cut Pro X $299
It's difficult to compare these apps. They have differences in capability - some are driven off templates. some aren't. Some have a wider variety of transitions. Others will have excellent audio controls. It's worth checking them out to see what meets your needs. However, there is no doubt that Final Cut Pro X is the most capable app of them all. You get what you pay for.
Regards
TD
