Major keyboard lag?

I have a rather odd problem that comes up regardless of whether I am on wifi or EDGE.
I am quite the Livejournal addict, and so most of my iPhone use involves that website. When I type a comment to someone, my keyboard it just fine. the taps register instantly and everything works as to be expected. However, when I go to type an entry for my own journal, the keyboard lags terribly. Now, all the taps eventually register: last night, I decided to try something. I typed very fast for about thirty seconds, all while the first couple taps registered about five seconds into it. Once I was done, I simply waited and watched as each letter enlarged and popped up in the text field, and about fifteen seconds after I had stopped typing, everything I had typed was finally in the text field. It even auto-corrected as I watched the delayed letters coming up. It was really strange to see.
I tried this on both wifi and EDGE, and in both horizontal and vertical orientations, and I had the same results each time. It's tolerable, seeing as all of the text DOES appear as it should, eventually. But it is a huge nuisance and it doesn't seem like something that should really be happening. Any suggestions, or experience with an issue like this?

I think this is certainly something that should be sent via Feedback if you haven't already.

It may have something to do with the way Safari's rendering the page, but, if you've tried turning it off and back on and it's still slow in that situation, definitely report it.

  • Major Scrolling Lag!

    Dear All,
    I have been suffering from this major scrolling lag on my mid 2012 macbook air 13.
    The lag is not only persistant to chrome or safari but also exists while scrolling between desktops, in the launchpad, in preview, word, system preferences....its omni-present.
    I started facing this problem since 4 days back, almost a month after installing mavericks. I have never faced such an issue while using mountain lion.
    I'm posting the results of Etre-Check for your reference:

    I'd really appreciate some help with this issue.

    Huge advantage for $170 more
    why?
    802ac wifi.
    Haswell cool processing and long battery life.
    Much more lightweight.
    Faster SSD
    Absolutely yes its worth the $170
    The 802ac wifi alone is worth it, it will run circles around everything else in wireless speeds.

  • 3Gs Keyboard lag with iOS5

    I've noticed that there appears to be serious keyboard lag with iOS5 on the 3Gs 16GB model that I have.
    Anyone else?

    I just update to iOS 5 few days ago, well, the new features were just fantastic, but I found a lag problem with my iPhone4, yes, it was LAG. Major LAG
    here are some cases：
    1. lag when scrolling（such as in address book or other pages with long contents)
    2. lag when opening a folder or closing a folder
    3. all game sthat once played well are now like a 16 bit movie.
    the issue seems just like a computer in high CPU usage or with low memory, and sometimes it made me a little bit freak out. And want to shut the phone down.
    After I cleared all the histories and cookies and caches and closed all background APPs, the issue remained,,,
    There was no problem when my iPhone 4 was iOS 4.1 and previous versions.
    and my iOS 4.2.1 works fine inside the APPs,,,
    Please help me, thanks!

  • Help with Safari crashing and keyboard lags with 2.1

    I have an issue and I need help.
    My Safari continually crashes if I use it for more than 10 mins as well as on certain sites. My keyboard lag has returned. How can I fix this?
    <Edited by Moderator>

    The other possibility is that your system is infected by the flashback trojan, as one symptom is odd plug-ins for programs you don't use. If you have OS X 10.6 or 10.7, you should do an Apple Software Update to address it. This Apple note has more: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5244

  • Satellite C660 - Keyboard lag and BIOS update will not install

    Hi All
    Have Satellite C660 with keyboard lag issue tried to update Bios but after downloading Bios from Toshiba web site and running the intaller a message says the Bios already installed is a newer version and the install with now cancel.
    Can anyone help?
    Pilot

    Hi,
    I have exactly the same problem. I bought Satellite C660 8 months ago and the keyboard started to play up about 2 months after. I tried Fn - F11 and it worked. However, the problem reappeared and was worse. Tried the same trick with Fn - F11 but it made the problem worse.
    I've tried BIOS update as most suggested. But it kept giving me error message that it was unable to update. My computer was automatically restarted though. The BIOS version that currently installed is 1.80. I also have Windows 7 reinstalled, but didn't solve the problem either.
    Any help would be great.......
    Thanks

  • IOS 7.1 keyboard lag on iPhone 4S

    Updated my software to 7.1 last night, this morning I now have a keyboard lag.
    Tried the obvious off and on, closed all apps, searched the net and followed steps of similar problems with the initial iOS7 update, turning off docs in iCloud, Reset all settings.
    None of the above are working yet social media and other are praising the new update of fixing their iPhone 4/4S bugs and lag, why has mine got worse and how do I fix it?

    My keyboard lag doesn't go away even though I restored from backup two times, once from iTunes and once from iCloud, removed any keyboard shortcuts, resetted keyboard dictionary and all thing you'd imagine and find from the forums! I'm very frustrated with you, Apple.
    The only thing that takes the lag away is disabling iCloud Documents & Data. It doesn't help to switch that option off for all the apps, it doesn't help to switch off using mobile data for D&D, The whole thing has to be off. Now I figure that's a huge problem in the iOS7, not any of the apps that make use of that feature.
    Please, Apple staff, respond to this! It's unacceptable that I can't use iCloud sync with my iWork suite on my iPhone 4S without waiting 5 or more seconds every 15s to be able to just type text. The keyboard lag is present in every app.

  • Keyboard lag

    This will pertain to both the first iPhone and the new 3G, both with the 2.0 software: My keyboard lags very badly, almost to the point where I can't even type. So I end up making too many mistakes and then go to delete, and the lag makes me delete too much! Both phones do it, but not all the time, and only with the 2.0 software! Any ideas? Any one else experience this?

    I have KB lag terribly; none of the above seems to help at all. Called apple "tech support" to no avail. Although they tell me that I am the first to complain of this problem, they even gave me a new phone bc the problem is "so strange". Glad to see I’m not insane, that others are experiencing the same issues. Anyone hear anything or get any other advice how to solve this issue that is making me want to chuck my phone! lol
    ps, clearing cache & cookies helps sometimes but still a pain in the tushy! GRRR

  • Keyboard lag on imports

    Searched for this, but couldn't find anything.
    Anyone else experiencing keyboard lag when editing a document imported from MS Word 2007?
    Native Pages docs edit fine, no lag. But if I import a .doc or .docx file and edit it, there is extensive keyboard lag when typing. Anyone see this? Any solutions? Thanks!

    I have not seen it, but it sounds like there is some formatting in the Word doc that is difficult for Pages to resolve.
    The solution is probably to simplify the formatting. Step one is to make a backup of the doc. Step two and onwards is to simplify as much as can be simplified: highlight all text and change font. Remove text boxes. Highlight all text and set consistent margins.... Use your imagination.
    If none of that works, create a new Pages document and paste all the Word doc content into the Pages doc. That may clean up some hidden formatting that confuses Pages.

  • MBP late 2013 i7 2.3gHZ restart problems and major input lags

    Since I've updated my MBP i7 2.3 Ghz late 2013 to OSX Yosemite (10.10.1) I can't restart the macbook with my promise harddrive and apple cinema display still connected via thunderbolt. When I restart it keeps hanging on the grey screen without the apple logo. When I unplug the thunderbolt and usb cable, hold down the power button and turn it back it everything is fine. Just the restart won't work.. Any ideas?
    Further more, I receive major input lags in different programs. For example I use Final Cut Pro (10.1.3) a lot for my job. I use managed media library all stored on the promise harddrive via thunderbolt. The footage I use is raw of the SD card from a Nikon D800 (h2.64 mov), of course i let everything import first before editing. Though I get major input lags (0,5-1,5 sec) when pressing the spacebar to play for example. Ive used this workflow exactly the same on my previous MBP (17" late 2011 I think) without any lags.
    Specs of my MBP:
    MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013)
    Processor 2,3 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2048 MB
    Storage 512 GB SSD
    Hope anyone can help me.

    Your original configuration is an HDD. Have you considered replacing it with an SSD. It helps quite a bit.
    The current 2013 (and now the 2014) MBPs are excellent machines, and can run Bootcamp via native EFI (Win 8/8.1 - Win7 has some driver challenges), rather than the CSM-BIOS layer and you will get very good performance. I would recommend a 16GB MBP. If you do a lot of external display work, dual GPUs may work better for you.
    I use the TB-to-FW for accessing external disks, not sound cards, but the storage works fine. This machine can support 8GB RAM, which may also be worth considering.

  • Keyboard Lag in Safari

    Ever since upgrading to OS X 10.8 and Safari 6, I have had issues with (sometimes severe) keyboard lag in Safari; I have not had this issue in other applications. I have used other browsers (Chrome & Firefox) and not had this issue. It happens in any input field, including the address bar. Worse, it often does not record keystrokes when lagging, so chunks of text are randomly lost. (I am not always looking at the input field when typing; I reference my second monitor, etc.)

    Please read this whole message before doing anything. This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it. Step 1 The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.” While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin. Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)? After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it. *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing. Step 2 The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows: 
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
     Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. *Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode. Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Occasional Extreme Keyboard Lag in Safari

  • KEYBOARD LAG: My iPhone's keyboard lags.

    Especially when I am texting and entering information in Safari, my (Black 16GB 3G) iPhone's keyboard lags. Sometimes it misses a letter or it takes a couple seconds to do something. And usually all the sudden everything is erased or for example I get something like: apppppppppppppppppppple. It's a pain, but on some things, like entering contacts, it doesn't happen.
    What should I do? Do I just have to live with it; is this something that every single iPhone has, or do I need a replacement. (And don't say I need to restore because I've already done that four times for different reasons, and this lag has been going on throughout.)

    I'll be calling Apple tomorrow, and let you know what I hear.
    As for low memory, that could mean RAM, which might mean you have a lot going on at once... I guess if some Apps run in the background. Most likely it just means you have many songs, videos, apps, etc. You can check how much space you have by clicking settings, general, about and look at what it says next to available. Also, after the iPhone is formatted, there is only 14.6 GB available.

  • Keyboard Lag in Firefox

    Sometimes I get a severe keyboard lag when I use Firefox. This typically happens after the program has not been restarted for several days. I tend to keep my programs open but just put my laptop to sleep. When I restart Firefox, the problem goes away.
    This more of an annoyance, but why does this happen?

    I have no idea myself what causes this but in case you don't know you are not alone in your problem from recent entries in the Firefox forums themselves at http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=511281&sid=9b90abda742fb246b7359f6 81b980f6b

  • Lumia 928 keyboard lag

    Hi-
    Just got a Lumia 928. All is well except the keyboard lags in all apps if I'm in portrait mode. Landscape seems ok. Any ideas?

    I have the same problem, and this lag is extremely annoying. To clarify, there is a lag (half-second or so) between the shutter sound and the actual exposure taken -- and this is true whether or not I half-press to prefocus.
    I'm guessing they wanted to avoid the reviewers pointing out the long shutter lag and just made the phone emit the shutter sound right at full press, no matter when the camera actually takes the picture. The solution for me so far is to know this happens and hold the camera still a second after the shutter sound, and press the button early. I'm just hoping that somebody releases a better camera app and this would be fixed, along with the whole issue of the shutter lag and lack of photographic controls. Maybe even Nokia itself could do it, instead of playthings like "smart camera".
    Generally, the 928's camera is a big step down from my previous Nokia N8, unfortunately. (The rest of the phone is much better though.)
