NYC LTE very slow / not showing on Verizon iPhone 5
Hi,
I'm having lots of issues on Verizon...the main issue being that since launch, the iPhone 5 has been slow, and connection changes from LTE to 3G to edge. Some times the 3G stays active for days no matter where in NYC I go or if I reboot, turn cellular data off and on..now, I do notice that resetting a the network settings will magically bring LTE back on...keep in mind that in manhattan these speeds suck, in other boroughs the speeds are ok, 5-10 mb... I work and live around midtown so it is like still having a 3G phone. Resetting the network settings works for a day or hours, but always goes back to the same issue of no LTE and the fix is the reset.
Now, I have seen many people saying the same on Verizon forums, and some are on android. I was traveling around last week for thanksgiving and the speeds was great always on, never slow....came back to NYC and as soon as I turned on the phone at the airport the thing I get is 3G.. Anyone know what could be causing the problem? This is a new phone since I actually had apple replace it before my trip, but the same issues reemerges. I have even tried resetting everything and set the phone as a new iPhone, but it still has these issues.
At this point I don't know if this is a software bug, hardware or network issue..any help will be greatly appreciated.
Yeah it truly is mind boggling how fast this phone is. Compared it to my friends Galaxy S3 this past weekend and it left it in the dust.
Him and I are always putting our phones head to head as he prefers Samsung phones and I prefer the iPhone. Needless to say, everything looks better on the iPhone. The only edge the Samsung had was the screen size, but even that was taken with a grain of salt. Standing outside in the sun, the iPhone screen comes through a lot brighter while you have to literally strain to see what's on the S3's screen.

My total amount of DOWNLOADED APPS. do NOT show up on iPhone HOME pages.
My total amount of DOWNLOADED APPS. do NOT show up on iPhone HOME pages.
I have the BIG DOG 16 gig iPhone and I am only limitted to 9 pages of APPS.
For what I PAID for this GREAT Phone, there should be NO LIMIT as to how many APPS. that I can download until and UNLESS my memory is FULL, which it is NOT even half full yet.
APPLE: Please change this LIMITATION, because there seems to be thousands of APPS. to choose from. Just as you have NO-LIMIT on the number of songs that I can download, I would like it to be the SAME for my APPS.
Thank you.This ***** badly

Movie playlist in iTunes is not showing up on iPhone after manually managing syncing and including movies from playlist.
Thank you. This solved my problem too.
But, one little thing to share:
"There's an option in settings for Playlists. It was set to Music only. Changed that to All then found the movie playlist under Movies by selecting Genre."
This is not to be done in iTunes in your computer; this is to be done at your apple TV under "setting". "audio video" "show playlist" "music only/all"
I am posting this here because I started chat mode with Apple support last night at midnight till 1:30, they didn't know what to do.
They called me back this morning at 10 am.
It's not 11:40 they finally know what I am talking about and showed me where to to find the "music only / all" toggle. My problem is now fixed;
all these time, they have in front of them a screen shot of your questions and answer but they don't know where to change it from music only to all.
So, I hope this will save the next victim a lot of time.
Again, thank you. -

Push not working on Verizon iPhone
I just got the iPhone on Verizon and got everything set up yesterday evening. I have a .mac mail account and set that up automatically. My email is set to "Push" and I thought that would mean that I would get the email on my phone shortly after it was received on the server. The only way I get mail is when I open the mail app on the phone. Any ideas as to why this is and what can be done to correct this?
Thanks!Same problem here. Got verizon iphone two days ago, set up google apps email with exchange (suppose to be push), it worked for about one hour and now the emails do not come in (it can take hours), eve when youcheck manually emails still do not come to the iphone. The emails are in my account on my computer but do not come on verizon iphone. I spoke wiyh a friend who has att iphone and he said that when googke syn started two years ago they had this problem but had it fixed right away, he has been using exchange with gmail for his att iphone for years with push email working perfactly......NEED HELP ASAP (otherwise will have to go back to my blackberry)

Applet very slow and shows no activity, but its running
I have a new applet for the users, but I am reluctant to implement until I get some others opinions. It is very slow (30 - 40 seconds)
Before it outputs a screen with about 20 lines, it reads 90 different html files. It looks at the forth rec of each to extract a name. It also gets the file size to determine if the record needs to be on the screen.
Anyway, it does 4 reads on 90 files. = 360 reads. Oops, it also reads and loads a 80 record file at the beginning. So total is 440 reads.
It takes 30 - 40 seconds. Which is not horrible, but it is not good. What really bothers me is that the applet screen shows no activity. At the bottom is shows "done" and "100%". Task Manager shows no activity. But if you just let it sit there, it will finally fill the screen. Pretty amazing to me. I would much rather see a "progress bar" moving on the bottom like other screens. Actually, a progress bar would solve it, because the users are not in a big hurry anyway.
I am using "openStream" and "readLine" for the files.
Any opinions?

I would much rather see a "progress bar" moving on the bottom like other screens.Ah, I think I see where you're confused. The progress bar and applet loading subtitles, etc are Java's way of presenting the progress of loading the applet. Once it's fully loaded, though (which it is when your code starts running), it hands off control to you. It's in your hands at that point. -
CS6 After Effects PNG export very slow - Not Multi-Threaded?
I am rendering an after effects project consisting of over 320,000 source frames of 4000x4000 resolution, outputting over 250,000 frames as PNG files.
Rendering is instant on our machines, all time is spent "compressing and writing" frames. It is taking forever.
We have several machines that are all windows 7, with 16 physical cores, 64GB ram, connected to a 4Gbit SAN.
I did some experimenting, tried using all 16 cores, or 8 cores, or disabled multi-frame rendering even. When this project is rendering my cpu usage is almost non existent,. maybe 1%-5% at times.
with 16 frames at a time being rendered it is averaging between 1 and 7 seconds per frame depending on the content of the frame.
Does Adobe have any plans to multi-thread the PNG exporter? or is there a faster 3rd party plugin out there i could use? It is very slow and doesn't tax the CPU's at all. Even on a single core it doesnt even use 100% cpu while its saving.
I even tried loading one of the frames into photoshop and simpy hit save as a PNG and it took almost 15 seconds to compress and save. I did it again without compression and it saved the 40MB raw file instantly.
That is terrible performance for machines like mine that are pretty much the fastest things out there.
Thanks!I appreciate your attempt for a workaround solution, however as you well know you can't render to a video file from multiple machines. we must output directly to individual frames, I setup 8 machines to work on this project, if we did not use compression then we would be writing over 300MB/sec of data which would not be good for our fibre network which unfortunatly is only 4Gbit. And it would be about 10TB of data total.
As for your workaround Im not sure we could gain speed with your method either way. spending the extra time to encode to a lossless format and then process again in AME sounds like it would take even more time, unless AME could create PNG files at some sort of ridiculous speed maxxing out every core at 100% or something to compress the PNG's. Out of curiosity I will throw some frames at AME and see how long it takes to compress and how much cpu it will use.
thanks -
HT1338 my mac pro started running very slow not all the time it is only 2 months old
My new macpro has been running very slow off and on (mostly on) it is only 2 months old I took it into the genius bar and they could not find anything wrong. I took it home and it ran fine for a short while then started up again. I have watched activity monitor and can see no direct corellation. Anyone have any ideas?
Did you install anything new lately?
Run any programs that purport to "clean", "speed up", or "optimize" your Mac -
I really do not have a lot more details to add to the question; in opening more than one tab; system is very, very slow either from trying to open when on-line or trying to open a link embedded in an email. Did not have an issue before the upgrade.
Problem solved, I think, though not internally to Firefox and not for earlier Windows versions: Windows 7 preserves former version of files and folders. right click on the filen ame or foldername and select "restore previous version". At this juncture, I have copied the previous and current versions of the folder so I can try them out and if necessary move the sessionstore file from one to another.

Safari 4.1 very slow & not loading
Hi,
I'm running Safari 4.1 and it's very slow and pages don't load properly. I reset Safari with all of the options checked off and it's still the same. I've read several posts and I saw many different ideas and fixes but not sure which one would pertain to my situation. Any advice would be appreciated!Welcome to the forums!
(First, if yours is an Intel Mac, check that Safari is not running in Rosetta, which is enough to slow it to a crawl. If you are running Snow Leopard, run Safari in 32 bit not 64 bit. Control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode)
Do you have enough RAM? Less than 1GB can cause slowness. Is your hard drive too full? Less than 15%, or 15GB, of free space can also cause slowness.
If you use a router, does it have the latest firmware installed?
Adding DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results in terms of speed-up as well as added security:
If you are using a single computer: Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
(You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)
Sometimes reversing the order of the DNS numbers can be beneficial in cases where there is a long delay before web pages start to load, and then suddenly load at normal speed:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2296
If your computer is part of a network: please refer to this page: http://www.opendns.com/start/bestpractices/#yournetwork and follow the advice given.
(An explanation of why using Open DNS is both safe and a good idea can be read here: http://www.labnol.org/internet/tools/opendsn-what-is-opendns-why-required-2/2587 /
Open DNS also provides an anti-phishing feature: http://www.opendns.com/solutions/homenetwork/anti-phishing/ )
Wikipedia also has an interesting article about Open DNS:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDNS
Whilst in System Preferences/Network you should also turn off 'IPv6' in your preference pane, as otherwise you may not get the full speed benefit (the DNS resolver will default to making SRV queries). If you want to know what IPv6 is:
This is Apple's guidance on iPv6:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8708.html
Click on Apply Now and close the window.
Restart Safari, and repair permissions.
Also, third-party add-ons created for a previous version of Safari may cause problems:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3230?viewlocale=en_US
If that didn't do it, then try this as well:
Empty Safari's cache (from the Safari menu), then close Safari.
Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete the following files:
form values
download.plist
Then go to Home/Library/Preferences and delete
com.apple.Safari.plist
Repair permissions (in Disk Utility).
Start up Safari again, and things should have improved.
