More slow wi-fi / network (10.5.1)
I am suffering a bit with my internet connection at the moment, and knowing more than a little about IP networks I found this to be DNS related. After getting no where with my ISP support my gf noted that her old powerbook (tiger) was working fine.
So I decided to keep an eye on the system.log to see what was happening (tail -f /var/log/system.log). And here is the output...
+Nov 17 17:57:46 Macintosh configd[35]: setting hostname to "Macintosh.local"+

As you can hopefully see there are two (possibly related) problems here that keep repeating every 30-60 seconds:-
First, it would seem that launchd is trying to do something in /System/Library/StartupItems which no longer exists (Is this an error on my machine, or normal for 10.5.1?)
Secondly, for what ever reason, my network or DHCP seems to keep switching my macbooks name from Macintosh.local to Macintosh.home, and putting into force some sort of traffic reduction!!!
I am using a BT home hub for wi-fi at the moment, I will check the wired connection shortly too.
Can anyone else shed any light on this? seems to have started since the 10.5.1 update!
FWIW, I had a similar problem. I'm running an Airport Extreme network with two Airport Express' setup as a WDS. Clients are my MacBook Pro 17" (Intel), my wifes Dell laptop (sorry, can't get her to change), and my TiVo. My network access from my MacBook (10.5.1) was ridiculously slow. I'm on Comcast Cable.
So... this morning, after spending some time on the discussions, I went into my Network Preferences and set IPv6 to "off" for all my networks. Airport, wired, everything.
Bingo. Speed is back up to a normal, reasonable level. I'm happy again. Prior to this change, I was getting less than dial up speeds through my network on my Mac. Now I'm back up to what I feel are reasonable speed levels given that I'm quite far out on the end of my cable providers loop.
Hope this helps!

Hello
I have a BookPro 15 2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 GB Ram, that's more slow after updating to X Lion 10.7.5
Is my hardware not good for this new OS ?
Can I upgrade my computer to Mountain Lion OS and make it faster ?Mountain Lion won't make it faster. It may not even be compatible. Speed has a lot to do with what is installed, installation of utilities that actually slow you down, such as MacKeeper, or any cache cleaning softawre. Installation of utilities that you don't need such as anti-virus or firewall software. Peer2peer software. Other devices sharing the same network can slow it down too, make sure your network is secure, and you know what is sharing the network. Some websites may be slower on Safari, and an alternative browser* is needed.

HP Laserjet M1132 MFP is too slow over the network!
Hi,
My HP Laserjet M1132 MFP is too slow over the network!
I have connect the printer to a windows XP 32bit SP3 using UBS port. The printer works fine on the local computer but when sharing it over the network it works too slow, for example with print test page it takes about 45 seconds to print and for other documents it takes much longer time.
I have installed the latest driver form HP website and upgrade the firmware it the latest version.
It happens on other Windows XP machines as well.
I connected the printer to my laptop (Windows 7 64bit) and it works fine (No delays over the network) and it seems that this problem have some relations with the windows XP Driver.
I have used local port trick on remote machines (instead of regular method) like this:
''add a local printer;
'new port'
'localport'
\\XPcomputer\HPPrinterName as port name
but still nothing!
There is nothing wrong with the network, we use to use a Samsung printer on the same machines over the network with no problem.
I Really appreciate your HELP!
This question was solved.
View Solution.BEHZAD_T, how is the printer connected to the network (wireless or Ethernet)? If it is slow wirelessly, I would suggest trying to connect the printer to your router with the Ethernet cord and install it to the networked computer that way.
Another question is, relatively speaking, how close to your router are the Samsung printer and the HP printer? Depending on the distance (and what stands between the devices) there can be a lag between sending a print job and it being received by the printer.
Let me know! -
Slow Windows-based network devices (smb) discovery?
Hi
I've noticed a problem with accessing windows file shares.
After a successfull boot of my mac it takes around 5-10 min for macOS to detect my windows computer on network.
This is very long time and i cannot access the shares without waiting.
I've read a lot about issues with samba and apple's samba's custom implementation however i've found no working solution for my case.
Has anyone experience similiar issues with slow windows devices network discovery?I am experiencing the same issue... I was searching the whole afternoon but until now unable to find a solution...

I'm on a MacBook Pro 2.33GHZ Core 2 Duo w/2GB RAM.
Websites are shared from a Windows XP machine using normal
built in file sharing.
In Dreamweaver CS3, opening a document takes a while. And
once it's open and everything looks good, I can click on an image
and count out 2 seconds before the image actually highlights. Click
on another image or in a table cell to type text, and it's another
two seconds.
This site website, copied to my own hard drive, responds as
fast as it should - near instant.
The website and images aren't large by any means, 43k with
HTML, images, and css. It seems weird that it'd be slower over the
network than locally. Once Dreamweaver has the document open and
everything loaded, just selecting different elements shouldn't take
a performance hit.
I didn't have this problem with Dreamweaver 8.
Anyone else having this issue? Any suggestions?
Thanks,
RyanHi theand
Thanks for going through the Mac troubleshooting TechNote.
Sorry it didn't
help.
1. Can you please send us a bug report so we can get your
contact info?
Please let us know that you are "theand":
http://www.adobe.com/go/wish
2. Can you reproduce this problem on another Mac connecting
to your same
server?
3. On your Mac, in the Site Definition, how do you have the
Local Info and
Remote Info sections filled out?
4. Do you have any sites that use an FTP server? Do those
sites have the
same problem?
5. What kind of server are you connecting to in your local
network?
Thanks,
David Alcala

I am using a Mac mini over a mixed office network. Several network operations are painfully slow. I posted a previous topic when I was using my G5 over the same network. Nothing has been resolved. G5, Mac mini or any Mac are slow over the network.
-photo previews take at least 2 minutes each to view while on a PC the whole drive of previews are instantly seen.
- Entourage common network calendar takes 5-10 minutes to view/update while the same common calender on a PC takes a few short seconds.
- Browsing folders on network drives is slow.
- Transfering files is slow
Basically any work done over the network from the Mac is tediously slow. Burning CD's and hand carry the files to other offices would be faster. The PC's instead all work fine over the network.This looks very interesting and worth looking into. I've got the info in the hands of our net administrator.
I am making progress. I switched the mac mini from ethernet to airport. That has helped dramatically. A folder of 175 mb that was going to take hours and hours to copy to my local drive (I finally gave up) only took about 2-3 minutes over wireless. Previews of photos now happen in a few short seconds. The Entourage common calendar still takes a while to upload but that's probably an Entourage issue.
Our network administrator is going to string new cable to my office and we'll check the switching as well.
Thanks everyone for your continued help as we solve this issue and rescue the Mac's reputation in a windows environment.
This sounds alot like a duplexing issue, whereby
your macs are connecting eventually to a switch, that
isn't properly auto-negotiating your ethernet speed.
You can try going into the Network preferences and
forcing your mac to either 100 full duplex or 100
half duplex and do some testing. Some Bay
Network and Cisco switches must be set (if they are
managed switches) for fastpath operation where they
will autonegotiate better with equipment like our
Broadcom manufactured network interface cards. I
had the same issue at home with a Netgear switch, I
replaced it with a Dell gigabit switch and the
problem went away.

Images du projet +lentes que l'original/Project picture more slower than original pictures
Je n'arrive pas à corriger la vitesse de déroulement du montage projet. How can I fix the speed of the projct to be the same of the original?
Le déroulement du projet est plus lent, ce qui donne des images saccadées comme-ci il y avait un effet ralenti. Cependant le son demeure exact avec l'original sans décalage.
The project show pictures more slower than the original, but the sound is okay.
Merci

1.3 is more slow then 1.2
Hi
I found the 1.3 more slow then the 1.2 , i mean the sliders are slow to move in the develop module using the zoom ratio Fit to screen
the 1.2 is blazing fast , the 1.3 is slow
I run it on xp , p4 3.6 ,4gb of ram , and 4 sata2 in raid
I did notice that the sliders are slow , sticky not smooth only in the fit to screen zoom ratio in the other ratios it's fast
I played in the catalog setting , with different setting and i tried to render 1:1
, update ati drivers ,i have a x800 pic express with 512 mb of ram
this version 1.3 has for me the same problem of the 1.0
my spec
Giovanni P4 3.6 ,4gb ram ,4 hds sata2 seagate 320gb, xp pro 2 , ati x800 pci-express 512mb , photoshop cs3 ,lightroom 1.2I want to add my voice to the "1.3 is slower than 1.2 list"
We work with both PC's and Macs, and we are both sitting here shaking our heads as to the slowness... almost unusable when trying to sort photos.
The slowness is very dramatic AFTER you have applied a few edits to a photo. So if you have cropped, adjusted exposure, etc, to a bunch of photos, and then you want to go through all the adjusted photos to further narrow them down, the "rendering larger version" message goes on for a long time between each photo. While that happens, the photo is very blurry.
Lightroom seems to be an acceptable option only for people that are working with a few dozen photos at a time. In my case the collection that I have adjusted and am trying to narrow down is about 330 images.
Yes, I have rendered the photos both large and 1:1. From RAW files.
I am re-rendering now (over 1 hour so far and still waiting) the large versions after they have been adjusted.
If forcing a re-render fixes the problem, that means that Lightroom is not storing an adjusted preview whenever it leaves a photo, causing the preview to be recalculated every time it gets revisited from then after. It seems that crop and rotate can make things really bad.
(And before you bother Lee Jay... we know that Lightroom works perfectly peachy-keen for you all the time) -
Why My IMAC OS X 10.6.8 Become Slow On The Network Between Window Server 2008
Dear Sir,
I am using IMAC 10.6.8, processor 3.06 GHz Intel Core i3, Memory 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3 and now my lovely IMAC become slow on the network between window server 2008 and my IMAC.
Kindly advise for the above said issue how can I fix it. I already disable in my IMAC IPV6 and I am connect with airport not ethernet cable and my WIFI is LINKSYS modem and all other windows PC's are connected with the Gigabyte switch.

Will using the old express slow down my network?
I want to setup a network without being connected to the internet, with an Extreme N connected to an external drive, AppleTV, and Airport Express for music.
1. If I use the old Express that is not running at N speed, will this significantly slow down my network?
2. If I setup my network with the old one and later upgrade to the new one, is it a big deal to delete the old one off the network and add the new one?
Thanks.You can have an N network with a G subnetwork. You connect the WAN connector of the G router to a LAN port of the N router. You set the N router to work only at N, that is without support for G networks. Let the G router handle those.

My mac become more slower after update to Mountainlion
My mac become more slower after update to Mountainlion
What shoudl I do? can you guys help me? BTW I have update my RAM to 8G
Thank youWhat is your Mac?
What did you update from? 10.6 or 10.7?
If from 10.6 or your machine was at 10.5 at one time, it might be too old/slow for 10.8, you might want to revert to 10.6 again.

What do you notice is slower than before? Like Internet or booting or loading programs or UI feel or what exactly?
If it's the Internet, then check this out

Now a fresh install of OS X usually does wonders, this would mean you will need to take acurate account of your installed programs, passwords, export bookmarks and backup all your data to a external storage drive. Keep the boot drive data below 50% filled ideally, (not much for you apprantly, just reduce 50GB of data)
Most commonly used backup methods
Write down your AppleID and password to reinstall 10.8
When your sure, then hold command r boot into Recovery, use Disk Utility to Erase (middle selection) the Macintosh HD partition and wait, it's going to map off fialing sectors. When done quit and reinstall 10.8 fresh and install programs and files from backup into the same named accounts.

That should make things zippy again. Also a #12 OnyX cache cleaning routine
Step by Step to fix your Mac
Another method is this, it's a defragging/performance speed up step, you won't have to reset everything up again from scracth like a fresh install method does. But it requires paid software and a external drive, but makes a excellent bootable backup in the process that can save your behind one day.

Our Imac becomes more and more slow
Our Imac becomes more and more slow ("rainbow wheel" appearing most of the time. We suspect some kind of internet pollution. Dors anybody know where hidden big files could have been stored and should be deleted?

There are lots of reasons why a computer might slow down but the most common are 1) too little RAM, 2) the hard drive is too full, and 3) a 'rogue' program is using lots of CPU cycles. The first step to dealing with this problem is not to try 'cleaning' the computer.
How much hard drive space is free on your computer? Programs need to create temporary files so the computer should have some empty space for them. You should keep something like 10%-15% free. There's a tool in the Utilities folder of your Applications folder called Activity Monitor. Drag it to your Dock so it hand, then reboot your computer and start Activity Monitor.
The activity Monitor will let you look at what your computer is doing and you'll want to keep your eye on two things: Click on the CPU tab and you can see all the programs your computer is running. In the list you can click on the CPU column to get the list sorted by CPU usage. This is useful because it lets you see if a program is using lots of CPU cycles. If you have an application that is consistently running at 50% or higher, that is probably not good. The second thing you want to watch is RAM. Click on the System Memory tab and you can see all the programs and how much RAM each one is using. But the really important information is next to the pie chart. You'll see VM, Page ins, Page outs, etc. The Page ins number is important - a high number is not good.
I suggested that you reboot your computer before you started the Activity Monitor. This will have reset Page Ins to 0. Now over the course of an hour, keep referring to the Page ins. If that number remains 0, you have plenty of RAM. The higher it gets, the more you need a Memory upgrade. When you restarted the computer also deleted all the temporary files, so take a look at the free space too. At this point you should see at least 10% free. If not, your drive might be too full.
