Online backups to Verizon service are very slow (25/25 service) - 1.5GB (113 files) @ over six hours

First, let me note that I had the Actiontec router replaced by tech right here, speed tests alone are great, PC was optimized.  I am using a wired connection.  However, uploads to the Verizon backup are very poor.  Not sure what to do next.

Mojolo:
You answered ytour OWN question.
Creating backups to the Internet are not advised.  There are many reasons that make this a poor idea from availability to security.  Take matters in your own hands and create local backups.
Personally, I write active data to a DVDRW weekly (rotated amongst 6 DVDRW discs) and monthly I use Ghost and image every hard disk of all my computers to an external hard disk.  It takes less than 15 minutes to backup ~4.5GB worth of data to DVDRW media.
Before Sandy hit, I moved the latest DVDRW backup and the external hard disk to an offsite location "inland" (just in case).

    Hey there Logic Pro21,
    It sounds like you are seeing some odd performance issues with Logic Pro X. I recommend these troubleshooting steps specifically from the following article to help troubleshoot what is happening:
    Logic Pro X: Troubleshooting basics
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5859
    Verify that your computer meets the system requirements for Logic Pro X
    See Logic Pro X Technical Specifications.
    Test using the computer's built-in audio hardware
    If you use external audio hardware, try setting Logic Pro X to use the built-in audio hardware on your computer. Choose Logic Pro X > Preferences > Audio from the main menu and click the Devices tab. Choose the built in audio hardware from the Input Device and Output Device pop-up menus. If the issue is resolved using built-in audio, refer to the manufacturer of your audio interface.
    Start Logic with a different project template
    Sometimes project files can become damaged, causing unexpected behavior in Logic. If you use a template, damage to the template can cause unexpected results with any project subsequently created from it. To create a completely fresh project choose File > New from Template and select Empty Project in the template selector window. Test to see if the issue is resolved in the new project.
    Sometimes, issues with the data in a project can be repaired. Open an affected project and open the Project Information window with the Project Information key command. Click Reorganize Memory to attempt to repair the project. When you reorganize memory, the current project is checked for any signs of damage, structural problems, and unused blocks. If any unused blocks are found, you will be able to remove these, and repair the project. Project memory is also reorganized automatically after saving or opening a project.
    Delete the user preferences
    You can resolve many issues by restoring Logic Pro X back to its original settings. This will not impact your media files. To reset your Logic Pro X user preference settings to their original state, do the following:
    In the Finder, choose Go to Folder from the Go menu.
    Type ~/Library/Preferences in the "Go to the folder" field.
    Press the Go button.
    Remove the com.apple.logic10.plist file from the Preferences folder. Note that if you have programmed any custom key commands, this will reset them to the defaults. You may wish to export your custom key command as a preset before performing this step. See the Logic Pro X User Manual for details on how to do this. If you are having trouble with a control surface in Logic Pro X, then you may also wish to delete the com.apple.logic.pro.cs file from the preferences folder.
    If you have upgraded from an earlier version of Logic Pro, you should also remove~/Library/Preferences/Logic/com.apple.logic.pro.
    Restart the computer.
    Isolate an issue by using another user account
    For more information see Isolating an issue by using another user account.
    Reinstall Logic Pro X
    Another approach you might consider is reinstalling Logic Pro X. To do this effectively, you need to remove the application, then reinstall Logic Pro X. You don't have to remove everything that was installed with Logic Pro X. Follow the steps below to completely reinstall a fresh copy of Logic Pro X.
    In the Finder, choose Applications from the Go menu.
    Locate the Logic Pro X application and drag it to the trash.
    Open the Mac App Store
    Click the Purchases button in the Mac App Store toolbar.
    Sign in to the Mac App Store using the Apple ID you first used to purchase Logic Pro X.
    Look for Logic Pro X in the list of purchased applications in the App Store. If you don't see Logic Pro X in the list, make sure it's not hidden. See Mac App Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases for more information.
    Click Install to download and install Logic Pro X.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • Since download of Firefox Hello desktop & laptop both on Windows 7 are very slow even after refresh, download history removed and anti virus software turned off

    Since download of Firefox Hello my home desktop & laptop, both on Windows 7, are very slow to open. I have refreshed firefox, removed download history and turned off the anti virus software in extensions. All the plugins are up to date. Can we revert back to Firefox without Firefox Hello?

    Firefox Hello is simply a wrapper for technology already in Firefox, it doesn't negatively impact performance if you aren't using it. Are you saying that your entire computer is slow or just Firefox?

  • CS4 apps are VERY slow to open Windows file browser with File Open or File Save As commands

    We are running CS4 on Windows 7 with all available updates installed.   Photoshop and the other CS4 applications are VERY slow to open a Windows file browsing window to select files when File Open or File Save As menu options are run -- it can take as long as a minute or two for the window to open.  Once the window opens and a file is selected, then opening or saving the file is very quick.  The location of the default directory, whether it is on a local drive or a network drive, makes no difference.  Any suggestions as to what the problem might be?

    Raphman02
    The link that I posted earlier is off.  Read this one
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2501584.  I discovered in my network that the MS Office File Validation Patch made excel crawl when opening over the network though nothing else changed. At the time I was opening Excel on Office 2003.
    You can manually turn this off by editing the registry and tunring it off.  Going forward I skipped the patch to keep my sanity.  Not sure if this is the same as your issue, but the support article will go into detail how to either have Fix it
    clear the issue or change the proper registry keys.
    Hope this helps

  • Applewroks is very slow when initiating or when opening any file.

    Every certain time, after erasing my hard disk and installing operating system and appleworks, the application begins with a symptom that is put recurrent more and more, when trying to execute the application this is put very slow and if attempt to open a file happens exactly the same.
    I cannot give with which it causes this fault, the other applications (OS x 10.2.8, MS Word X, Saffari, etc.) they work without no problem.
    I would like to know if there is some user who happens something to him similar and which would be the solution that it avoids to erase everything and to return to install?

  • My 2nd generation Airport Extreme very slow via wireless (5 and belows mbps) wired over 20. Please help!

    My 2nd generation Airport Extreme very slow via wireless (5 and belows mbps) wired over 20. Please help! What could it be?

    It is very possible that you may have some form of Wi-Fi interference nearby that is preventing your AEBSn from providing a clean RF signal on the 2.4 GHz band.
    I suggest you perform a simple site survey, using utilities like iStumbler, or AirRadar to determine potential areas of interference, and then, try to either eliminate or significantly reduce them where possible.

    Having trouble with the iOS 8.1.1 download.  Very slow. Just keeps saying preparing update for about 4 hours now. Help

    Hello there, Cmm405.
    If you're updating your iPad with an over-the-air iOS update, the following Knowledge Base article offers up some practical steps for troubleshooting some of the issues that can arise:
    Resolve issues with an over-the-air iOS update - Apple Support
    In your instance, these sections may prove particularly useful:
    Download takes a long time, or you can't reach update server
    iOS updates require a persistent Internet connection, and the time it takes to download the update will vary according to the size of the update and your Internet speed. You can use your device normally while downloading the iOS update, and iOS will notify you when you can install the update. To improve the speed of the download, avoid downloading other content.
    If you get a message that "an error occurred downloading iOS," try again later. If the issue persists, try updating your device in another network or use iTunes to update your device. Learn more about iOS updates.
    Update does not complete
    If you're installing the update and the progress bar appears to move slowly, be patient. The time an update takes depends on the size of the update and the number of files on the device.
    When you're updating over the air, keep your device connected to a power source so that it doesn't run out of power. If your device does run out of power, connect it to a power source and turn on the device to let the update or restore complete.
    If the update never completes and the progress bar hasn't moved for an extended time, try restarting your device. If you still see the issue after you restart, see what to do if your device appears frozen or won't start.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • Loading pages, esp. online, are very slow!

    I have not found a problem exactly like mine among other posts and hope someone can help me. Recently, I bought an Airport Extreme card and base station to go online with my iBook G4 (10.3.9) and I am impressed with how easy it was to set up and how trouble-free it is to use. Yet, loading pages and connecting to sites and applications have slowed down. It's so slow I have gone up to the icon to "stop" the loading process and suddenly the screen is displaying the desired site (or showing a partially loaded page). "Reloading" sometimes goes on to producing the full page. Sometimes "stop" produces what I expect: a stopped search. If I hit “load” a second, third, or fourth time the page starts reloading where it left off the last time I stopped it and often speeds up and quickily connects me on the second or third try at reloading. "Loading" has become a gamble: it’s either very slow or reloading that 2nd or 3rd time goes very fast and quickly connects me! It’s like it “catches” on the later tries. I do not understand this.
    After a long, slow attempt to load I sometimes get messages like "bad server response" and "failure to connect to server", (among others). Twice, there has been no response at all when I click "GO" or “Preview” or “Enter”. The first time I tried to post on this forum, I successfully previewed my post, then edited it. When I tried to preview it the 2nd time, nothing happened, and I could not submit my post either. There was just no response when I clicked the “buttons”. Then, I tried to go to the previous page and, after a while, finally got the “error” message. It is taking me hours to do what I should be able to do in less than one hour.
    Working offline, processing information and loading applications and pages is still pretty slow but nothing like it is online. Spinning beachballs are nearly constant! While processing a query, I find I can get up from the computer, perform miscellaneous tasks, and when I come back, if I'm lucky, the screen will have my desired information - usually, however, it is still trying to load the page.
    Searching posts on this forum gave me the idea to increase free space on the hard drive: With a capacity of 37.25 GB, the harddrive had just over 2 GB available... that 2 increased to 6.02 GB after I downloaded and ran Monolinguist (to take out foreign, unnecessary languages) and Onyx (for "maintenance" and "cleaning"). I verified and repaired permissions. I don't know anything else to do!
    Can anyone help me correct this slow processing? Is it something to do with the wireless connection or it's configuration? Maybe Monolinguist took out something it shouldn't have? Maybe I didn't do enough "cleaning" or "maintenance" with Onyx? Sometimes a little knowledge has gotten me in more trouble than I could figure out how to get out of... but, I don't think I am quite there yet. I do need help! So please... "HELP!"
    Any and all help will certainly be very much appreciated.
    Thanks, debi

    if computer works otherwise, slow wireless connection could
    be caused by bad wireless signal:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58543
    also, problem may not be with the AirPort, but with the high-speed router or internet service provider.
    if possible, you may want to connect iBook to the internet
    with the network cable first - if it works ok, problem is likely with the wireless.
    if the iBook works slow even with the cable connection, problem could be software or hardware on iBook or something with the router.
    also, if possible you can test an iBook on some other wireless network - if it works ok, problem is within your home network.

  • Videos Playing On eMac Are Very Slow.

    Hi I have an eMac 700mhz Power PC G4 with 640mb of SD Ram running Mac OS X 10.3.9 and video is very slow but weirdly videos on YouTube play fine and are not choppy or slow at all.
    I have the latest version of flash that will run on this OS : Adobe Flash Player 9.
    Any suggestions ?
    Thanks

    It's possible that CNET are using bigger (in terms of their quality) movies compared to the very small YouTube files.
    When you watch the movies, are they downloading in time to play properly? (Most online movie viewers show a progress bar that lets yousee how much of the file has been downloaded... and the movie starts playing almost immediately... so - is it trying to play, when it hasn't downloaded the file yet)
    You could try click the Pause/Play button (to pause), and wait til it finishes downloading, Then click Play and see if that helps...
    Other than that... how much hard drive space is free on your computer?
    Do you have a DVD drive? Can you watch normal DVDs?
