My Apple TV is suddenly very slow

I am going to have to use laymen terms here. I purchased my Apple TV a year ago and have been using it successful since. About two weeks ago it suddenly began streaming very slowly and has maintained a very slow rate of transfer between my computer (Windows XP) and the Apple TV. To be frank I cannot use it without frustration. I tried upgrading to 2.0 but it did not help. So I did a factory reset which only put it back on 1.1 ; but the performance is still painful. I have made no changes to my router (ADSL) or my computer that is running iTunes. I have three other laptops that are running on the wireless laptop and they are running fast and fine.
Can anyone help?

davidwh1,
I may have misread your original post... but I interpreted your message to say that you have your information on a laptop, and that the laptop and AppleTV are both connected wirelessly to your router. And if that is the case you can connect your laptop directly to your AppleTV for testing purposes. However, if your iTunes is on your desktop PC, perhaps you could try to sync one of your laptops (if you have iTunes on it) to your AppleTV in order to rule out that it is a connection issue. Sorry if I misread your post and I wish you good luck.

  • WebDav suddenly very slow

    Today, WebDav became suddenly very slow on my iMac running the latest version of Mavericks. Yesterday everything was OK.
    When I try WebDav from my iPad things are OK, so I suspect something is wrong on my iMac. I already tried rebooting and resetting PRAM and VRAM.
    Does anyone have a good suggestion?

    Hello,
    Check to see how much free disk space there is. Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon on your Desktop, then click: Get Info. In the Get Info window, click the discovery triangle so it's facing down. You will see; Capacity and Available Make sure you have 10% available disk space, 15% is better. Insufficient available space, can cause performance issues, system corruption, and possible loss of data.
    Check the hard disk for errors.
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger and later) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.

  • Mac Book Pro suddenly very slow

    MacBook Pro suddenly very slow despite good wifi connection. Should I be scanning for virus? and if so, which product?

    Scanning for a virus will be a waste of time.  To date there are no know virus' affecting Macs.

  • Mac suddenly very slow

    All of a sudden my mac started running very slow.
    first i opened activity-monitor to see what was wrong. I didnt see any unusual ram-usage. But the kernel_task had a CPU-time of 32 000. I cant seem to find any other explenation for why this is happening.
    when i try to use my computer pretty much every task takes ages. Everything from doing stuff on the internet to browsing around in finder. Im also having trouble starting up my computer, i have to hold in the power button very long for it to respond. It also turns itself of without any reason. 
    Whats weird though is that my computer still manages to run movies in VLC smoothly.
    Help would realy be appriciated

  • Suddenly VERY Slow Internet On Macbook Pro

    My MacBook Pro is less than a year old, running Snow Leopard 10.6.7. A few days ago, the internet suddenly became very, VERY slow. My computer says it is receiving a full signal, and my girlfriend's computer (a Dell, I might add) is on the same wireless network and is working great. I have tried everything suggested to me when searching for the problem online: I've reset my router and modem (but again, my girlfriend's computer is working well on the very same connection and my MacBook claims to be getting a full signal), checked for software updates, emptied Safari's cache, reset Safari, disabled plug-ins, tried Chrome and Firefox (the problem persisted), scanned for a DNS changer and viruses/spyware (the scan came up clean), added open DNS servers, reset my TRAM, repeaired disk permissions and have restarted throughout this process. I cannot trace this changed internet speed to anything - I have no idea what has caused it or how to fix it. Please help!

    Hi...
    Try Starting up in Safe Mode
    That deletes system caches that may help. A Safe Mode boot takes longer then a normal boot so be patient.
    Once you see the Desktop click the Apple menu icon top left corner of your screen. From the drop down menu click Restart.
    If that didn't help, try uninstalling Sophos >  http://help.bol.ucla.edu/app/answers/detail/a_id/879
    Then try your browsers. It could be the security software that's slowing your browsers down.
    If that helps, you could try a different anti virus software such as ClamXav. It's free and Lion v10.7 compatible.

  • Macbook is suddenly very slow

    Suddenly my MacBook Pro is very slow.  Spinning beach ball of death appears across platforms.  Might have a virus or malware.  What can I run to detect what's up?  Any suggestions?

    You may be able to improve the speed with some software work but it could also be your disk or SSD is corrupt or failing.
    Backup your data immediately:
    Before proceeding you should make sure you have a current backup.  If it has been getting slower over time your disk could be a failing slowly.  SATA drives have two retry modes: short and long.  They can continue operating as read errors are increasing.  The long retry cycle is very long and can cause significant performance degradation.  If it has started long retries then it is likely to get worse and eventually fail.  SSDs also have a failure mode where the fail slowly.

    After you have backed up your system twice to two different disk drives.
      Preferably with one of the backups being a clone.
      Time Machine restores are complex and can sometimes fail.
      You don’t want to risk all your data on one backup as you wipe out the data on your Mac.
    As part of this clean install procedure for disks, erase the disk with Security Option Zero
      that writes zeros to all sectors and remaps bad sectors as it does so.
      That is a time consuming operation, but worth it.
    See https://discussions.apple.com/message/24057867#24057867
    If you have an SSD, to not write a pass of zeros to it.

    Hardware replacement or upgrade?
    Hopefully by now your Mac is back to its normal speed.  If a hardware repair is indicated take it to an Genius bar at an Apple store for a free diagnosis and estimate of repairs.  If it is under warranty or AppleCare they will repair it for free.  If not, you can compare their estimate with DIY repairs.
    Genius reservation http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/ .
    or find an Apple Authorized Service Provider https://locate.apple.com/country
    You can speed it up further by upgrading some hardware. (Do not upgrade the hardware if it is still covered by the warranty or AppleCare.)  For the following memory, disk or SSD replacements and upgrades check out OWC http://eshop.macsales.com/, Crucial: http://www.crucial.com/ and Kingston http://www.kingston.com/us/.  You will need to know your Mac the year and season your Mac was first sold and model number which can be found here:
     > About This Mac > More Info… > System Report > Model Identifier:
    If your Mac has 2 or 4 GB of RAM, consider an upgrade to 8 GB (if the memory is upgradeable).  An 8 GB memory upgrade is only $100.  When I upgraded a MacBook from 2 GB o 8 GB it booted thee times faster.
    If your Mac has a disk and it won’t repair properly, is low on disk space, or you just want a considerably faster disk, check out an upgrade to an SSD-Hybrid disk. Google "Seagate 1TB Solid State Hybrid Drive SATA 6Gbps 64MB Cache 2.5-Inch" or consider an SSD (120 to 480 GB).
    OWC has SSD replacements and upgrades for MacBook Airs and Retina MacBook Pros.
    Good luck.  May the software fixes do the trick.

  • MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008) suddenly very slow and laggy

    This seems to be a popular question so I apologize, but I know there can be a number of issues that cause a computer to run slow, so I want to post my computer's specifics and hopefully someone can diagnose the issue for me without my having to bring it into the store. Thank you in advance.
    Specifically my MacBook runs slow when trying to open or close Microsoft Word, iTunes, or access a folder with pictures and short videos in it. Frequently I get they are not responding, or have to close out of everything else in order to get the spinning wheel to go away and sometimes that doesn't even help.
    I would just like the computer to be able perform simple commands in a timely manner like it used to. If there is any way I can get back to this I would be eterrrrnally grateful!
    Problem description:
    MacBook responds very slow when trying to open applications. Slow, lags, rainbow spinning wheel all the time, even just to open a folder with pictures.

    Resetting SMC could solve the problem.
    Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    And you need to install more RAM, I think.

  • MacBook Pro Suddenly Very Slow

    Hello all,
    I own a mid-2012 MacBook Pro with 8gb of RAM and 2.5GHz i5 processor running the latest version of Mavericks. I purchased it back in December 2012, and have only had one issue with it (graphics card failure, which was fixed by Apple).
    Everything else has been fine, as far as I can tell; apps load fairly quickly (such as Adobe AI and PS) and there hasn't been any lagging or glitchy-ness unless I'm gaming.
    However, recently (about 6 days ago) my computer started to become EXTREMELY slow. Booting up takes probably double the time it used to take, and opening Adobe Illustrator has taken 2-3 minutes. Once I get Illustrator open, something as simple as a brush stroke will freeze up the machine for about 30 seconds. All other apps act similarly. When I'm playing music with Spotify it will lag and stop playing for a little while and then resume. The computer will even freeze when I do something VERY simple such as hovering over the dock to magnify the icons. Even as I'm typing this message, the computer freezes up every few words and makes me sit and wait 15 seconds before continuing to type.
    The issue began the day I installed AutoCAD. Is that the issue, or a coincidence? I tried uninstalling it but the Mac was still very slow and glitchy. I tried uninstalling lots of apps I don't use (and don't know how I got them) like Growl and FUSE. I also cleaned up the HDD and have 118gb out of 500 free, and I ran the Apple Hardware Test (the basic and extended tests) with no problems found. Nothing I've done so far will speed the Mac back up to normal.
    I do have a Time Machine backup, so one possibility is to restore the Mac to the backup from a week ago (before the issue began). The only problem with that is I'm afraid I'll lose some of my apps (mainly Adobe CS6) which I no longer have the serial number for, and there's no way I'm risking having to buy it again.
    Another option is to move all important files to an external drive, wipe the whole thing clean, and start over. Again, I'd rather not do that for fear of losing my applications.
    I checked the Activity Monitor and everything seems normal there:
    Lastly: Upon looking through other forum posts like mine, I saw that most people want to see the EtreCheck report to try and help; so here it is:

    Thanks to everyone in advance!! I'm a student and couldn't live without my computer. Please help

    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. 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 documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; 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?
    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, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    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.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • JDeveloper IDE suddenly very slow for past two days

    Hi All,
    I have Jdeveloper 11.1.1.4 for more than a month now. Suddenly the JDeveloper IDE has become very slow. It is very annoying having to wait for the code changes to show across and windows take long to get in sync. I have 3.25 GB RAM running on XP service pack 3. Also, I scanned my machine for likely virus, but has come clean. It is only with Jdeveloper I am having problems. All other applications are running fine. I even tried just running JDeveloper alone. No luck.
    Thanks

    Suddenly the JDeveloper IDE has become very slowSeems like something changed.
    Did you install any new extensions? When is it "slow?" Is it when doing a specific activity, or just overall "slow?" What does your OS show (is JDev using lots of CPU, for example)? Have you tried making a backup of your "system11.1.1.4.37.59.23" folder (numbers may be different depending on version) and then deleting it so that JDev recreates it for you (you'll lose all of your preferences/settings)?

  • Internet suddenly very slow 2011 Mac Mini

    My internet has suddenly become very very slow.
    Wireless.
    Last week very fast.
    Any ideas?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
    SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    ☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.

  • HDD suddenly very slow

    Hello,
    One week ago, my white Intel iMac has begun to be really slow, always getting the spinning wheel.
    I ran Onyx maintenance scripts, defragmented, and finally formated and reinstalled my whole system.
    However, it did not solved the problem, but it helped me understand its origin: the internal HDD has become very slow.
    When I tries to copy/paste a 2 Go folder, it takes over 45 minutes! The speed doesn't go beyond 2mbit/s. Now the disk is empty (I am running from a external HDD), and it is still so slow...
    No problem with the external HDD.
    What can I do ? It is a really big problem for me. And obviously, my warranty extension has just finished...

    Boot from the install disk and run Disk Utility Repair Disk. See "Try Disk Utility" here.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1417
    How much free space do you have on the drive? Check when you run DU. Were you getting the message "Startup Disk is Full?" You should maintain at least 10-15% of capacity. Is your external bigger than the internal? If it is, might explain why it isn't having problems.
    Also, booted normally run DU, highlight the drive and see if down at the bottom, it says SMART Status Verified. Even if it shows Verified, Your drive may be failing.
    See what kind of report you get on the drive from this demo of Smart Utility which is more accurate and less forgiving than the verification the Mac provides.
