Please Help! Photo Import has Suddenly Slowed to a Crawl -- 19 hours
I have transferred 1,000s of RAW photo files to my HD and external HD with no problem, until a few days ago. Suddenly, what used to take about 3 hours now takes 19-24 hours. I can't figure it out.
I've changed card readers, I've tried different memory cards, I've even downloaded to external HDs and tried to upload directly to my HD. I've also hooked up my camera and tried to transfer the files via a USB cable (traditionally the slowest way). I've also tried to upload using different software programs: Lightroom, iPhoto and Bridge.
I've also ran the Disk Utility on my HD and there weren't any problems.
Nothing works.
Please help.
If ran Disk Utility and only used +Repair Disk Permissions+, you may want to startup from another disk and run +Repair Disk+ (to look for and repair disk directory errors). If you don't have another bootable disk, you can startup from the Mac OS X (current version) installation disk. Insert disk and startup with the C key held down to start from the optical drive. When you get to the first Installer screen (after language selection), go up to the Utilities menu and select Disk Utility, then run +Repair Disk+ on your normal startup drive.
Also, do you have sufficient free space on your hard drive? While you were move those 1000s of photo file around, did your startup drive ever get to less than 10GB free?

Computer has suddenly slowed to a crawl
Hope you can help out there!
--MacBook has suddenly slowed down.
--Takes 2 minutes from login screen to seeing my desktop.
--Took 2 hours to repair permissions.
--Safari begins to start-up and then stalls. Have to re-start.
--Can't back up--Time Machine says "preparing" for 2 hours--I gave up.
--Tried to re-build directory with Disk Warrior--found lots of problems, but would not let me replace with the "preview" directory. It recommended I back-up the "preview" directory, but I didn't see any way to do that. Permissions repair went through quickly. Diagnostics on hard drive ("S.M.A.R.T." function) indicate that hard drive is OK.
--I've run Cocktail (latest version), and that went through okay.
--Have re-started the computer multiple times without beneficial effect.
--Now trying to back-up via Time Machine one more time--will let it stew overnight.
Any suggestions most welcome. THANK YOU.Hello Robert:
As I indicated above, I think an archive and install would be something to seriously consider:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
An archive and install will install a fresh copy of OS X (which should be updated using the software update feature) while preserving your files, programs, and settings. As always, I strongly recommend a backup before any software update (Time Machine is a good solution).
An erase and install, IMHO, should be reserved for a disaster (I have never done one myself).
By the by, running GUI programs like OnYx (I have one that is pretty good - Cocktail), while not harmful, would not (IMHO) fix the sort of problems you describe. For example, OS X 10.5 runs the UNIX 'cron' (the daily, weekly and monthly processes mentioned above) automatically. There is no reason to manually initiate them. Also, the cache cleaning most of the GUI maintenance programs initiate may atually slow a system for a period of time. There is little or no reason to run any maintenance programs under OS X 10.5 - unless one is troubleshooting.

My MacBook Pro 2/I7 has suddenly slowed to a crawl. No viruses.
Not much else to say. Worked great up 'til yesterday. Everything is now slow. Thought it was a virus. Bought latest Norton; did scan and no viruses or other related problems.

I migrated all my stuff from my old iMac everything working fine so I was a happy boy. However, about 4 weeks later my internet has slowed to a crawl. Slower than dial up it seems.
I did some speed tests over the network on 3 seperate devices and got the following
iPad and iPhone
Upload: 3Mb
Download: 7Mb
iMac
Upload: 0.09Mb
Download: 0.5Mb
As I mentioned, this was 100% fine before today, I have run no updates so far, as none available. I see lots of people on here have been having problems, but they have upgraded to M Lion from previous OS's. Mine was M Lion straight from the box.
It's not just Safari that's slow, it's the app store, Opera, Firefox and Spotify. Everything is very very very slow. I am connected to the network fine. I need help with this. Please help. I'm doing this from work as home iMac couldn't get here!!
Are you running any Anti-Virus/Security software or similar?

My Photo Stream has suddenly stopped pushing photos from my iPhone 4s to my PC although they are appearing on my other iPhone. Any ideas why or how to fix the issue? I have not altered any settings.
Hi Kevinmvb,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The article below may be able to help you with this. It sounds like you may have moved your photos out of the Uploads folder where they need to reside.

Apr 20, 2015, 09:21:25 AM Self test - passedSo I looked up the info on OWC as suggested and found the correct memory to upgrade but not sure how much to get and which option? I wanted to know how much space I have available to upgrade so I don't buy something that's more than what can be used. I'm not sure if I need 4GB or 8GB of ram? Also there are two options with every memory choice for instance:
8.0GB PC3-10600 1333MHZ SO Kit (4GB + 4GB) w/Lifetime Limited Warranty
Same Day
$78.79
8.0GB PC3-10600 SO-DIMM 204 Pin w/Lifetime Limited Warranty
Same Day
$82.79
Not sure what the difference is in the two and which I would need to purchase? Thank you for all your help! -

Please help my mac is so slow coming up and going to different places. the flower keeps coming up all the time?????
I'm having this problem but only online. I've confirmed that it is the computer (2007 MacBook), and it only happens when I'm using wi-fi connection. My other MacBook (2010) is connecting with wi-fi fine, and when I plug this MacBook into the ethernet connection it is also doing fine. I've re-started, check the memory, deleted cookies, histories, gone as far as uninstalling and re-installing browswers. Used the System Preferences network diagnostics and got an "all good". Ideas appreciated.

Hello,
I am a longtime iphoto user and installed aperture this past december. At that time I imported all my iphoto photos as referenced files and kept them in their iphoto location. Since that time, every photo I took was uploaded directly into aperture and stored there. I am now comfortable enough with aperture that I would like to use it as my primary photo viewer / manipulator and would like to merge my two libraries into one single aperture library. Unfortunately, I cannot figure out how to do this.
I tried consolidating all originals yesterday, however this did not seem to have any effect. I then tried reimporting my iphoto library, however, this simply duplicated many of my events (and the duplicated ones were not even adjustable via aperture, and each photo had a little exclamation point in the lower right corner). Both of these attempts did nothing to combine my aperture projects and my iphoto events (which are now seen as a seperate iphoto tab under projects). I am aware that I can now switch to my iphoto library within aperture in version 3.3, but I just want everything stored in one place and in my aperture library. Can someone please help me with this?
The only thing I can think of is deleting all of the iphoto events from aperture and then reimporting them, but I am scared I will either delete something permenantly or that they will simply reimport as referenced files and remain within iphoto.
Please help!
Thanks,
- MikeMike,
I am not quite clear about the current state of your iPhoto and Aperture libraries. It looks like you have plenty of broken links to referenced masters in either library. Whatever you do now, it is very important to ensure that you have a working backup, both of your iPhoto Library and your Aperture library, before you try a major reconstruction.
I tried consolidating all originals yesterday, however this did not seem to have any effect.
In what way did it not have any effect? From the effects you are describing, it looks like all your original master images have been removed from the iPhoto Library and are now inside the Aperture library as managed masters - at least, this would explain, why trying to import the iPhoto library resulted in duplicated projects (and the duplicated ones were not even adjustable via aperture, and each photo had a little exclamation point in the lower right corner). You removed the original masters from the iPhoto library, and now you could not import it, since the originals are now in Aperture.
For me it looks, like you simply need to delete the iPhoto images marked with an exclamation mark, for these are already bound to images that you imported earlier. It is perfectly o.k. that the recently imported iPhoto Library appears in a separate section of the projects in your Library Inspector Panel. Each iPhoto event should appear as a project. Aperture will put them there, so you can find them easily.
You should check now, if the originally imported images, that you imported as referenced, are now managed. If you enable badge overlays you should see no longer any arrows on the thumbnails of your earlier imports. Also, if you select one of these images, you should be able to toggle between original master and version by typing the "M" key.
Define some smart albums (File > New > Smart album) based on the file status: Add a rule: File status is.
One smart album: File Status is referenced
One smart album: File Status is managed
One smart album: File Status is missing
The first album should be empty.
The second album should show all your images you originally imported from iphoto as managed, and that you recently consolidated.
The third album should show your recent import - the images imported from iPhoto after you consolidated the originals to Aperture and removed these images from iPhoto.
Post back, when you have checked the file status of your images in Aperture and we can be sure were the images are exactly.
Regards

I have a Lenovo G530 laptop and all of a sudden, for no reason at all, the integrated webcam that is built into the computer won't work. I always keep my laptop in the same safe place, have never spilled anything on it, have done nothing to make it not work properly. I bought it brand new in September (it is February now) so it isnt that old either. I went to use my webcam on windows live messenger and it came up as a white screen. I went to My Computer, then to take pictures with it from its icon and it came up as the same white screen. I just used my webcam on Skype the other night and it worked fine. Everything else on my computer is running normally, but my webcam is very important to me as I use it alot to keep in touch with friends and family while I'm in university. If someone could please help me it would be greatly appreciated.
Solved!
Go to Solution.right click my computer > manage > device management > camera > right click > remove device.
restart your computer and let windows install it again.
also you may need to re-install camera software, too. -
Please help with importing and using imovie and idvd
Hi,
Please forgive my lack of knowledge. I previously had a mini dv camcorder that was so easy to use with imovie hd. Now that I have switched to an HD Usb 2.0 camcorder that has built in 16gb memory and memory cards, I have had such a great deal of trouble. I really hope you can help and point me in the right directions.
Importing movies are fine, but they take so long! Currently, when I import a movie, I set the camcorder to PC mode and import through imovie. But the camcorder stays on, and I'm not sure if this is the best way or healthiest for the camcorder. Do you have a better/faster way to import movies? Is there a way to drag the video from the memory onto the computer, and then from there import the movie? I think at least I wouldn't have to leave the camcorder on.
Also, one major issue I have is that each movie is broken down into 100 or so clips. I coach basketball, and videotape the games. When there is stoppage, I pause the camcorder. I guess that creates so many clips, so that when the film is imported, there are over 100 clips for the entire movie. Is there a way of making that just 1 entire movie/clip?
Once I have imported the entire movie, which is 100+ clips, I want to simply create a dvd of the game. I know I have to share it, but do you have a better suggestion as to how I should handle this?
In the past, all I did was import the mini dv movie into imovie HD, share into idvd, and then that was it, dvd made. This process had become so time consuming.
Please help!Yes, I recognized there would be a slight pause between clips - but after all - you paused the camera at those points.
Putting them all in sequence in iMovie and then encoding in iDVD will take a lot of time.
An old favorite saying of mine is "not every job worth doing, is worth doing well'. The meaning being sometimes 95% is good enough so you can go on to the next job.
How much work do you want to put into each DVD? Can you live with the slight pauses?
would you suggest using a memory card?
Yes, but 16GB cards aren't cheap (yet).
