PDFs slow to load in iBooks

PDFs, especially PDFs with lots of graphics, are slow to load in iBooks.  I have to open the PDF and wait for all pages to load before I can continue on.  I've saved it as an optimized PDF, but that did not work.  Any suggestions?

I am also having trouble with large pdf files ie. architectural plans. My problem is using in PDF Expert. Very slow. I have contacted PDF Expert support and they tell me they are using the system for rendering pdf's and it has been a problem since iOS5. This is a problem Apple needs to fix.

  • PDF slow to load on iBooks

    I have added a few PDFs to iBooks. The PDFs are graphics heavy on the page. When I open the PDFs, they are very slow to load in iBooks. I have to wait for every page to load in the lower page view before I can start reading the PDF. Has anyone else seen this?

    I used to use Stanza on the iPad for PDFs because they rendered very well and also rendered fast. I, too, find that iBooks renders PDFs very slowly on iPad. Since iOS5, Stanza no longer works, and I've downloaded Adobe's new PDF reader, which actually works nicely in terms of rendering, but doesn't allow for you to customize the title and author fields for easier sorting. Hope this helps.

  • Large pdf's wont load in iBooks

    Large Pdf's  close to 1gb or bigger wont load in iBooks, but small ones will. How to fix? Also same pdfs have no problem loading on iPad3

    It could be that the font is not embedded into the document. What type of font is technic? Look at the document properties and see if it is embedded into the document.

  • PDF loaded into iBooks will not sync back to iTunes

    I accessed a PDF on the web from Safari on my iPhone 4s, then opened it in iBooks.  Then I connected the iPhone to my iMac and synced with iTunes.  I was expecting the new PDF to sync back to my iTunes, but that did not happen.
    Am I to assume that PDF files loaded into iBooks on my iPhone or iPad will NOT sync back to iTunes?
    -Thanks

    It was VERY difficut, but I finally did it!
    First I was annoyed because I couldn't get the PDFs to show in my iTunes Library.  As near as I can tell, performing a backup of my iPad did that.  In the past 'Transfer Purchases' did the job.
    What nearly drove me bonkers was getting the content of my iBooks Library to sync to the device.  There was just no way to do it.  Not my PDFs and not even the purchased books!   I tried to get the Library on the left and my iPad on the right so I could drag and drop.  NOPE.
    I played around a while and finally got both to show on the screen so I could drag and drop.  STUPID
    What I think worked for me:  I started in Music Library and clicked on the +Add to icon on the top right.  This pulled up my iPad for drag and drop.  Then I switched the button on the top left from 'music' to 'books'.  Finally I could remove or add my content to iBooks.
    It worked perfectly before, why did they change it!
    The music App makes me drag and drop, which I never had to do before.  All I had to do was check or uncheck songs in a playlist and sync the playlist.
    Apps works fine, no complaints.
    Podcasts, another fine mess...
    I noticed Video was fixed when I went back in.
    Oh, the kicker, my iTunes is not responding today.

  • Since I downloaded version 4 of Firefox, I'm having the following problems: Extremely slow at loading all web sites, can't view PDF files from web sites, and lots of unresponsive script messages. How can I fix this?

    I downloaded version 4 of Firefox this week and have been having problems since. Firefox is now extremely slow at loading all web sites. Trying to view PDF files from web sites crashes Firefox. I'm getting lots of unresponsive script messages. How can I fix this?

    I have the latest version of iTunes with iBooks, and it doesn't have anywhere to drag PDF files into iTunes. Where are you seeing this? I tried every imaginable PDF, include a text document, I printed to PDF from textedit, then dragging it into the pane of grayed out books in iTunes.
    What gives?
    Here's a screenshot:

  • EXS24 is so slow if loading an instrument i never used before

    EXS24 is so slow if loading an instrument i never used before. But after the 1st tough time, loading of this patch can be very fast later even after restarting system thousands of times:-)
    I did not change and use any personal setting of ESX24 data fodler. even if loading a Logic factory sounds, it still happens. only the 1st once time is tough. i tried reinstall Logic 721, the problem is still existing. i tried scaning and save
    scaned data in Project Manager, seems not helpful.
    i think EXS24 is seeking samples data when the 1st time i want to use it. it doesn't make sense because all data is in the local hard drive and i have set
    specific directories to scan in project manager.
    may be this problem is caused by BootCamp. because i installed an XP system
    under wizard from BootCamp. But logically, we can simply initialize user information of Logic for fixing the seeking problem. but i don't know where those information or configuration are stored in OSX.

    i don't think it's normal behavior. because all instruments in my local partition
    are Factory sound bank only:-)
    once time I tried converting some GIG into EXS24 format according to the PDF guide, it was pretty good even the 1st time loading.
    this morning I plug a USB hard driver on my MBP, and then loading a patch
    i never used before. seems surely EXS24 is seeking data, because this a light
    on this USB hard driver was shining for couple seconds before the end of loading.
    anyone knows how to block the seeking directorys of EXS24 during loading?
    according to the Manual of EXS24, only default directory and user-defined directories shall be available. but now seems something's wrong.

  • Forms slow to load in Prosight V7

    We are having difficulty with forms being slow to load in Prosight. It can take up to 20 seconds for a form to load.
    I have found if I redo the Statistics on the SQL tables it settles down back to normal but does not seem to last long as a fix.
    It seems that the SQL execution plan that the database comes up with isn't stable and slows things down again.
    Anyone else had issues with forms loading slowly, if so is there a fix that sticks ?
    Let me know - cheers.

  • Opening PDFs from gMail account in iBooks

    I've previously opened PDFs from gMail messages using iBooks but today, for some unknown reason, I cannot open any new PDF file attachment larger than 200k.
    iPod Touch 8GB (2nd generation) using iOS4.1- Still have 5.7GB available so I'm not sure why certain size files won't open.
    I've even tried using Safari w/ gMail account - In both cases, as soon as I try to open the PDF attachments w/ iBooks, the display drops out without transferring to Ibooks as it used to do.

    Tried resetting - No joy.
    When I tried to open the attachment w/ "iBooks", the iPod switched to iBooks and an "Untitled" file showed on the bookshelf momentarily then the display dropped out and returned to the "Home" screen. No joy there.
    Even tried opening w/ "Quick Look" - Again, no joy. Just a dropout and back to the "Home" screen.
    Looks like I may have to do a total reset - Now iBooks loads w/ "Untitled" file displaying and then the display drops w/ a return to the home screen - In the process of total reset as I write this - Will update after I do a restore. - Its going to take at least 2 hours for reset/restore operation.

  • Web pages slow to load with IE11 and the cursor/mouse is very slow to work until after page loads

    Web pages are very slow to load, I hve run Norton Eraser and found no issues that would cause this

    New HP Pavilion three weeks ago.  After several attempts by the 'experts' I finally got a straight answer from a tech in the Philipines yesterday, 01-29-2015.  HP and Microsoft are working to resolve the issue of slow pages and a dead cursor until the next page finally loads.  You may have discovered that Google Chrome DOES NOT have this issue.  Comments about HP would not be allowed here so I will just say, use Chrome until the issue with IE 11 is resolved.

  • Firefox 4.0 keeps locking up and is slow to load pages

    I just installed 4.0 this morning. Ever since, Hotmail is extremely slow to load, it keeps locking up or not responding.
    I thought this was supposed to be faster and more streamlined?
    Now, when I try to go back and install 3.6.13 it is no longer available. What gives? I want my old Firefox back.

  • Since upgrading to ios8, pages very slow to load, and can no longer read items in my reading list when offline. ?????

    SI since upgrading to ios8, Safari pages are very slow to load, Kindle crashes upon opening, and I can no longer read saved artices from my reading list when offline. Big disappointment. Is it possible to downgrade to previous ios?

    I actually managed to fix it! But unfortunately I don't know what I was that I did that helped.
    Anyways, this is kind of what I did.
    1. I tried to reset form bakup via iTunes, no change.
    2. I tried to reset as a new iPhone, problem still there and reading list also as bookmarks!? (several hundred)
    3. Noticed that I could delete a bookmark, once in a while, the other times I got the 'Bookmarks are being synced. Please edit the bookmarks once syncing has completed.' message.
    4. Because I figured that it was a memory problem, I thought it made sense to delete as many as possible, witch I did.
    5. Noticed that it was more likely that I coould delete a bookmark if I restarted Safari.
    6. Notice that it was even more likely that I could delete a bookmark if I turned the Safari sync with iCould off (with option detete information on iPhone) and then back on again.
    7. When I was about half way through deleting the bookmark list I suddenly discovered that all but one of the items in my reading list was 'waiting' and one was downloading. I kind of was 'unstuck' now.
    8. I started to delete items in my reading list, but every other time I got the 'Bookmarks are being synced. Please edit the bookmarks once syncing has completed.' message.
    9. It took a while to delete all bookmarks and items in the reading list.
    Hope you guys could use the info here to fix your problems too!

  • Mac seems slow to load  web pages and email since mavericks upgrade

    Since upgrade from Mountain Lion to Mavericks on my iMac, web pages seem a lot slower to load on screen. Also, when I open my mail inbox, the mail content (wording) takes a long time before appearing on the right hand side, then followed a little later with the display content. I have synchronised all my mail accounts and also emptied my cache in the safari browser, but this has not resolved the problem.

    Go to Applications (you can do this by clicking on the desktop and hitting cmd-shift-A). Within the Utilities folder you should see a program called Terminal. Launch this program, which should just be a window that you can type into. Type the following (or just copy and paste into the window) and hit return:
         networksetup -setv6off Wi-fi
    Then go back to Network Preferences and verify that IPv6 is set to off. If that doesn't help, enter these two commands in succession:
         cd /Library/Preferences/
         sudo mv com.apple.security-common.plist ~/Desktop/
    Note that this moves a configuration file onto your desktop. If that doesn't fix things you may want to put it back:
         cd /Library/Preferences/
         sudo mv ~/Desktop/com.apple.security-common.plist .
    Good luck!

  • Firefox is slow to load and view pages and repeated "Firefox is not responding" message

    Firefox is quite slow to load and view pages with and I keep getting the "Firefox is not responding" message.
    I have the latest version, plus the latest Adobe Flash Player, Shockwave Player, etc.

    Note that Firefox 36 has been released officially.
    *https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/36.0/releasenotes/
    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to install for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Firefox 12 is very slow to load pages and if two tabs are opening it lags.

    Firefox 12 is very slow to load pages and if two tabs are opening it lags. I've tried everything (e.g virus, defrag, I've created a new profile in "run", etc). I've had my router/line etc all checked and after 2 weeks of cleaning/testing etc its all pointing to Firefox as the problem. Please help as it's driving me nuts.

    I have the exact same problem.
    Not only does it load pages very slowly, sometimes the page will stop for a good 45 seconds and stop loading, only to finish it much later.
    Something is wrong with Firefox 12, it shouldn't be this slow.
    How is that each version is progressively worse than the one before it?.
    Stop releasing so many versions Mozilla, release one that works and build from there.
