Maverick is taking too long to show icons on folders

I made the mistake of upgrading to Maverick from Mountain Lion OSX.  I must say the latest updates have improved
the general operation, but I still find that Maverick is slower at start up, does not let me click on dashboard icons,
and most of all is taking a long time to show icons inside folders from finder.
Too long.  On average over 20 secs, which is too long.
I have a 2.53 Ghz i7, 15in MacBook Pro, AMD Radeon HD 6490M 256 MB, 500 Mb SATA disk.
Any ideas?  I am used to Maverick now and don't want to downgrade, but this is really annoying.

The population of the finder is a known issue. However, the slow population only happens once (the first time you open something).
Slower at startup is not an issue here, but I do have a SSD drive.
I have no problem clicking on dashboard icons.....You might try trashing the preference file and restarting.

P.S. As an aside, I seriously doubt that the DNS address has anything to do with your issues.

  • AirPlay Screen Mirroring (Mavericks) disconnects frequently with "Feedback taking too long to send" message

    My company has several TVs with AppleTVs (3rd generation units) connected in our conference rooms so we can "Screen Mirror" our Mac laptops via AirPlay during meetings. Many employees have complained that AirPlay Screen Mirroring drops frequently during meetings for no apparent reason.
    In attempts to determine the cause of the issue, I removed the AppleTV units from Wi-Fi and hard-wired them all to the LAN (100Mbps/Full duplex, no switchport errors seen on the Cisco switch). I upgraded the AppleTVs to the latest firmware. I had our AppleTV users ensure they were running MacOS Mavericks with the latest software updates installed. I had the Mac laptops hard-wired into the LAN during meetings in the conference rooms. None of these changes resolved the AirPlay issue.
    I reviewed the MacOS "/var/log/system.log" file from the laptops of several users that reported issues. I found a pattern that seemed to indicate that the "coreaudiod" process reported "Feedback taking too long to send" several times before the AppleTV connection was terminated. Also, from a network trace (using "tcpdump") taken during an unexpected AirPlay Screen Mirroring disconnection, I could see that the Mac laptop sent a TCP FIN packet to the AppleTV unit (this would indicate that the MacOS laptop initiated the closing of the AirPlay connection).
    I have included the relevant log file entries below. Please note that the LAN internal to our company is "solid" and there have been no connectivity issues detected or reported during the times the AirPlay sessions were disconnected.
    I believe I have found a workaround to this issue. By going into "System Preferences", "Sound" and then changing the "Output" device BACK to the "Internal Speakers" (rather than the AirPlay destination), the AirPlay Screen Monitoring connection seems to remain stable.
    My questions are:
    - is anyone else experiencing this type of problem? any other solutions recommended?
    - is there a way to change the AirPlay defaults so that Screen Mirroring only sends the video (not audio)?
    - does anyone know what the log file entries indicate (like, what does "Feedback taking too long to send...." mean)?
    - any fix planned for this issue?

    I'm currently still experiencing this as well. I've confirmed it occurs on 10.9.1, 10.9.2, and 10.9.3 on MacBook Pro Retina's, Mid-2012 and 2013 MacBooks. It happens on multiple ATV's not just one, all are updated to 6.1.1 and a simple reboot seems to fix it temporarily but it does come back. All the ATV's are connecting to the network via Wireless not Ethernet. These are 3rd Gen ATV's but I checked the serial number and these do not match the bad batch of Apple TV's from 2013 that were offered up for Replacement for Apple due to the bad firmware update. None of the computers have the Firewall turned on. Here's the two logs that we always find after the issue occurs (logs are recent, happened this morning):
    5/30/14 8:57:36.017 AM coreaudiod[183]: 2014-05-30 08:57:36.016946 AM [AirPlay] ### Feedback taking too long to send (30 seconds, 17 total)
    5/30/14 8:57:36.332 AM coreaudiod[183]: 2014-05-30 08:57:36.331492 AM [AirPlay] ### Feedback failed: -6723/0xFFFFE5BD kCanceledErr
    The user will get disconnected from Airplay anywhere between 30 seconds to 3 minutes after logging on and can reconnect but then once again get disconnected after the same time period. One interesting thing to note is that when the Feedback Taking Too Long to send error starts occuring and the countdown to disconnect start ticking down to 30, its solely referring to Audio not being sent over the network and Video is working just fine. If I try to play sound I get another log and the sound doesn't play through the speakers. After a reboot, sound works fine and the Feedback Error's do not show up. I've also tried switching to Internal Speakers (since it defaultly switches to Airplay Speakers) after connecting to Airplay and seeing the Feedback timer start in the Console Logs but even after that the log continues to saw its taking too long to send and disconnects in 30 seconds. 
    This issue has been ongoing for months, I've got a ticket logged as far back as January with this occuring but its infrequent enough that we've just restarted and moved on. I'd say its an issue that occurs to about 5%-10% of meetings but that's an entire meeting that doesn't have the ability to Airplay until someone comes down and reboots it.
    I don't often post in this forum but its still an active issue with no resolution, proof that its occuring on other people's systems, and no firmware updates having been released to correct it. It'd be nice to know of any workarounds other than having to buy some lamp timers for each conference room just to get a functional ATV or putting up a sign that says hey if you get disconnected every 3 minutes, reboot the ATV. The whole reason we're using Apple products is for ease of use otherwise I'd put together a much cheaper solution myself. Any help or recommended troubleshooting steps would be fantastic at this point.

    I have created a slide show for a funeral buts it is taking too long to transfer to sub (like 24 hrs  ). Is this normal or should I be doing this another way ?

    Not the only one. Though I have not retryed my installation. Here is what happen to me and please verify if you had the same (sounds like it).
    1. Installed 10.8.4 on top of 10.8.3 and install went fine.
    2. I have installed a Niffy Drive (though no SD in it) ... but did not realize potential problem you suggest.
    3. its a MBPr
    4. Boot took for every (it 40 seconds from after I logedin to system screen on 10.8.3) but after (ie on 10.8.4) took forever 10-15 minutes with a cursor in the upper left on a white/gray screen.
    5. I reinstalled to 10.8.3 and all works as before
    6. But sounds like after removing niffy dirve I should reinstall??? Ie the problem I described was the same as yours.

  • WRT54GS2 - Page taking too long to load?

    Recently our Internet Service Provider turned our internet back on. About a day or two after using the internet, I've been noticing problems with slow internet connection. At times it will load fast, and other times it'll take a little bit too long to load.
    For example, I had a couple tabs open this morning and tried to get on a website in a different tab. The page was taking so long to load that it gave up and I got the message "Unable to connect to the Internet".
    But I have internet. 
    On my taskbar, there's an icon in the bottom right corner showing that I have internet connection. 
    Other times I'll try to load a page and it's just blank, and in the corner of the page's tab, there's just an icon of a white sheet of paper followed by the web title.
    How come some pages are taking too long to load and others are loading just fine?
    Additional detail if it helps:
    I unplugged the power cord from my router and plugged it back in to try and fix it and that didn't work.
    My second and third attempt, I refreshed my router. Still nothing.
    Also, I have a secure network, password protected.
    There have been no severe storms recently that could have messed with the router.
    What can I do to fix this issue of a slow loading page?

     Hi ashtonlevry, it looks like your router has a messed  up settings right now. That could be because you had it on stand by for a while since you said that your ISP has just turned your connection back on.
    It's actually best for you to just reset the device back to the default settings and reinstall it afterwards.
    To do the proper reset :
    1. Press and hold the reset button at the back of the router for 30 seconds while the device is on.
    2. Release the button and unplug or power off the device.
     Once done, reinstall the settings.

  • Oracle - Query taking too long (Materialized view)

    Hi,
    I am extracting billing informaiton and storing in 3 different tables... in order to show total billing (80 to 90 columns, 1 million rows per month), I've used a materialized view... I do not have indexes on 3 billing tables - do have 3 indexes on Materialized view...
    at the moment it's taking too long to query the data (running a query via toad fails and shows "Out of Memory" error message; runing a query via APEX though is providing results but taking way too long)...
    Please advice how to make the query efficient...

    tparvaiz,
    Is it possible when building your materialized view to summarize and consolidate the data?
    Out of a million rows, what would your typical user do with that amount data if they could retrieve it readily? The answer to this question may indicate if and how to summarize the data within the materialized view.

  • Network event is taking too long (100%)

    Hi everybody. We have a 10g DB on Windows. We're using OEM to manage the DB, and it has started to show an alert about database time spend waiting for "Network" event. It arises when we execute one module that updates several tables, that is taking too long. Before we had this app on 8i, also on Windows, and that operation was much more faster than now. The indexes on tables are valid, and I've gathered statistics for the CBO, so I suppose the problem is, as the OEM says, related with network, but I don't know why, because the connection speed is the same tan before, and the two machines are in the same LAN.
    Any ideas??

  • R/3 Extraction taking too long to load data into BW

    HI There,
    I'm trying to extract SAP Standard extractor 0FI_AP_4 into BW, and its taking endless time.
    Even the Extract checker RSA3  is taking too long to execute the data. Dont know why its taking so long to execute.
    Since there in not much data to take such a long time.
    Enhanced the datasource with three fields from BSEG using user exits.
    Is that the reason why its taking too long? Does User Exit slows down the extraction process?
    What measures i should take to quicken the process?
    Thanks for your time
    Vandana

    Thanks for all you replies.
    Please go through the steps I've gone through :
    - Installed the Business Content and its in version 3.5
    - Changed the update rules, Transfer rules and migrated the datasource to BI 7
    - Enhanced the 0FI_AP_3 to include three fields BSEG table
    - Ran RSA3 and the new fields are showing but the loading is quite slow.
    - Commented the code and ran RSA3 and with little difference data is showing up
    - Removed the comments and ran, its fine, though it takes little more time then previous step...but data is showing up
    - Replicated the datasource into BW
    - Created the info package and started the init process (before this deleted the previous stored init process)
    - Data isn't loading and please see the error message below.
    Diagnosis
    The data request was a full update.  In this case, the corresponding table in the source system does not
    contain any data. System Response Info IDoc received with status 8. Procedure Check the data basis in the source system.
    - Checked the transformation between datasource 0FI_AP_4 and Infosource ZFI_AP_4
       and I DID NOT found the three fields which i enhanced from BSEG table in the 0FI_AP_4 datasource.
    - Replicated the datasource 0FI_AP_4 again, but no change.
    Now...I dont know whats happening here.
    When i check the datasource 0FI_AP_4 in RSA6, i can see the three new fields from BSEG.
    When i check RSA3, i can see the data getting populated with the three new fields from BSEG,
    When i check the fields in the datasource 0FI_AP_4 in BW, I can see the three new fields. It shows
    that the connection between BW and R/3 is fine, isn't it?
    Now...Can anyone please suggest me how to go forward from here?
    Thanks for your time

    What could be the reason for update statement to execute so long?You haven't said what "too long" means, but a simple reason could be that the scalar subquery on "s_postn" is using a full table scan for each execution. Potentially this subquery gets executed for each row of the "ops_forecast_extract" table that satisfies your filter predicates. "Potentially" because of the cunning "filter/subquery optimization" of the Oracle runtime engine that attempts to cache the results of already executed instances of the subquery. Since the in-memory hash table that holds these cached results is of limited size, the optimization algorithm depends on the sort order of the data and could suffer from hash collisions it's unpredictable how well this optimization works in your particular case.
    You might want to check the execution plan, it should tell you at least how Oracle is going to execute the scalar subquery (it doesn't tell you anything about this "filter/subquery optimization" feature).
    Generic instructions how to generate a useful explain plan output and how to post it here follow:
    Could you please post an properly formatted explain plan output using DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY including the "Predicate Information" section below the plan to provide more details regarding your statement. Please use the {noformat}[{noformat}code{noformat}]{noformat} tag before and {noformat}[{noformat}/code{noformat}]{noformat} tag after or the {noformat}{{noformat}code{noformat}}{noformat} tag before and after to enhance readability of the output provided:
    In SQL*Plus:
    SET LINESIZE 130
    EXPLAIN PLAN FOR <your statement>;
    SELECT * FROM TABLE(DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY);Note that the package DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY is only available from 9i on.
    In 9i and above, if the "Predicate Information" section is missing from the DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY output but you get instead the message "Plan table is old version" then you need to re-create your plan table using the server side script "$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utlxplan.sql".
    In previous versions you could run the following in SQL*Plus (on the server) instead:
    @?/rdbms/admin/utlxplsA different approach in SQL*Plus:
    SET AUTOTRACE ON EXPLAIN
    <run your statement>;will also show the execution plan.
    In order to get a better understanding where your statement spends the time you might want to turn on SQL trace as described here:
    When your query takes too long ...
    and post the "tkprof" output here, too.

  • Update is taking too long to install

    I'm in the process of installing an update to iTunes (11.0.4) and what I think is a security update on my MBP. However, the installation process is taking too long. First, it was stuck for about 2 hours on "registering updated components", and now (for the last hour) I'm seeing a blue screen with the spinning gear. Should I just keep waiting? Has anyone had a similar experience? 

    zornie,
    Try going to safari>preferences, general tab, and setting the "save downloaded files to your desktop (if desktop is not in the drop down menu, click other then select desktop from the left side bar). This will download the update to your dektop as a stand alone installer. Also if for some reason the download is interupted you can click the download icon on the desktop and it will resume where it left off. When the download is complete double click the icon/installer package and follow the prompts. Do them one at a time. (Thsi is not using software update, which can some times get corrupted during DL, especially if your are doing it wireless)
    Security update:

    Hope this helps

  • Browser times out when trying to view my website - says the server is taking too long. And no, I don't have a firewall.

    I can't view my website at www.artisancandies.com, even though it's working and everyone else seems to see it. No, I don't have a firewall, and it's not because of my internet provider - I have AT&T at work, and Comcast at home. My husband can see the site on his laptop. I tried dumping my cache in both Firefox and Safari, but it didn't work. I looked at it through proxify.com, and can see it that way, so I know it works. This is so frustrating, because I used to only see it when I typed in artisancandies.com - it would never work for me if I typed in www.artisancandies.com. Now it doesn't work at all. This is the message I get in Firefox:
    "The connection has timed out. The server at www.artisancandies.com is taking too long to respond."
    Please help!!!
