Previews slow to load

I've seen this topic on the threads, but mostly for previous versions. I have LR4, and my previews load so slowly. How can I speed them up? Bridge handles the previews so fast and it is so much nicer going through with that program, but I'd like to move my workflow to LR4 solely. But hard to with the preview handling being so much slower. Any help?

They're not the previews that Victoria is talking about, nor are they the previews that Lightroom uses in the Library module. When you import images, you are given the choice of which type of preview you wish Lightroom to build during that import. If you routinely select "Minimal", that's what Lightroom creates, which are only thumbnail sized. That gives the quickest import speed, but it also means that whenever you attempt to view an image in the Library module using the Loupe view, an appropriately sized preview then has to be built.....hence the 'loading' delay.
If, OTOH, you were to render either "Standard" or "1:1" previews during import, you will find moving from image to image in Library using Loupe to be a much speedier process as there will be no delay waiting for the preview to be built.
If you routinely use 1:1 view in Library, building 1:1 previews during import might be a good idea (albeit it will elongate the import process).

Since upgrading to Mavericks, Mail is extremely slow to load preview pane or show email when mailbox is double-clicked. Is this a known issue?

Since upgrading to Mavericks, Mail is extremely slow to load the preview pane or show email when mailbox is double-clicked. Is this a known issue? Or is there a solution to this issue?

Hi AngieLynch,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you're seeing some unexpected behavior in Mail.
Before troubleshooting on your computer, I'd strongly recommend backing up your data to an external hard drive with Time Machine, if you haven't already. This article can help with setting up Time Machine:
Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac

Next, try creating a new user account on your computer. You can add your email account to Mail in the new user account. If Mail is more responsive in the new user account, then Mavericks is working fine and the behavior is caused by conflicts in your own Mail or user account.
These articles walk you through creating a new user and setting up Mail:

Preview Images Slow to Load

Hi! I finally got all 70,000 images into aperture and all was well until I decided to move some images from one project to another. Now I get some preview images and lots of grey boxes. If I select an image represented by a grey box, it will load, so the images are okay. It's just ugly that the previews won't load.
Any ideas?

Guys, you are expecting too much. What you are describing is largely related to your hard drive setup. If you want to handle large batches of images faster you need to address hard drive read/write with things like fast hard drives, RAID 0 and FW 800.
I took delivery on a RAID 0 FW800 drive <http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/ME8R7640GB16/> today and after I have used it a while I will report back.

Slow email loading

the problem: every time i get a new email (using exchange server) it takes forever to load the message. i can see them in the inbox, including the preview, but when i click on the message it just hangs on "loading....". i know this is going to be somewhat dependant on the connection speed (wifi/3g) but it occurs in almost all instances... plus, if i can see the preview (which most of the time actually will show almost all of the content of the message) why does it need to reload that?? any tips to get this to work better or is this just a "feature" of the iphone email system? (if the latter, i really don't understand how any enterprise can roll the iphone out as a solution vs the blackberry)

I thought it was just me, my iPad and my iPhone both are slow at loading the email content from my Exchange server. I have a Windows Phone 7 on test connected to the same mailbox on the Exchange server and the content loads in an instant to the extent where I will use that phone over the Apple devices because it is so fast.
It is not every email either, I can't spot the pattern yet. Both my iPhone and iPad are on 4.3.3 and all three devices are on the same mobile carrier so it is not pinch points in the infrastructure, the common factor is the Apple devices.
I wanted to know if there was a known problem with Apple devices and Exchange, is there something buggy in the later versions of iOS and the ActiveSync client? It never used to be like this and it is a frustrating experience having to wait whilst the device says "loading". Another frustrating message I see is "this content has not been downloaded from the server" where the message body should be, the only way I can force it to load is to forward the message and ask it to download the content. Bonkers!!
Any chance of a fix for this?

Slow down loading

new apple tv is so slow to watch a preview or down load a movie I checked my speed on speed test . net and my cable speed was over 15

As I said also rule out interference, also there could be ISP throttling either specific to the device, or at certain times etc.

SWF slow to load, and removing sound when uploaded

Hi,
I've created a swf file from Flash CS5, running a video player and FLV, which plays fine locally, and when previewing from dreamweaver CS5. However, once it's all uploaded (video file, swf, html), the file is very slow to load and then doesn't play sound.
It can be found here: http://andypowell.co.uk/wateraid-drtv-inserts-door-drops-online-banners.htm#&panel1-1
I've had this issue before with the swf files on panels 2-4 and managed to fix it, but I can't get through it this time. Any help would be much appreciated.

Flash is a dead web technology because the most popular mobile devices can't support it. Use HTML5 video. You'll reach a wider audience with less code and fewer problems.

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 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.

Slow to load BB

Hello, Im new to BT but have BT phone and Broadband unlimited evening and weekends. My BB was switched on on 28th August and I realise it can take up to 10 days to stabilise from reading the info given. However it is very slow to load pages which often time out and its impossible to play games on XBOX live or watch youtube clips as it is still that bad. Will it improve at all?
Thank you
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi,
Sorry to hear that your having problems with your broadband.
Please see Keith's help guide here: Helping forum members to help you, it will go through some checks that are needed for us to help you.
A summary of the checks are:
1) you should be connected by the BT NTE5 master socket as extension sockets can reduce broadband performance
2) Can you please run a BT speed test (including IP Profile) http://speedtester.bt.com (not beta version)[Best done with a wired, ethernet, connection]
3) is there any noise on your line. dial 17070 option2 from landline. should be silent but slight hum normal on cordless phone.
4) please post adsl line statistics
ADSL Line Statistic Help:
If you have a BT Home Hub like the one below...
Then:
1) Go to http://192.168.1.254 or http://bthomehub.home
2) click Settings
3) Click Advanced Settings
4) Click Broadband
5) Click Connection or sometimes called ADSL (see picture Below)
The direct Address is http://bthomehub.home/index.cgi?active_page=9116 (for bthomehub3)
You will need to copy and past all the adsl line statistics ( Including HEC, CRC and FEC errors). You may need to click " More Details"
There are more useful links on Keith's website here: If you have an ADSL connection, please select this link
cheers
I'm no expert, so please correct me if I'm wrong

Pages are slow to load or stop loading

Once I'm connected to wi-fi, my pages are slow to load or stop loading and tell me 'I'm not connected".

If you are having the problem on more than one computer it would appear not to be a computer fault or your browser that is the problem.
The first thing I would do is a factory reset of the homehub by pressing a pin into the recess button on the rear for about 20 seconds. This can often sort out problems and will also give you a "clean sheet" to start some diagnostics from.
If this doesn't help please post what Infinity package you are on, I assume with 18Mbps it's Infinity 1 but please confirm, and do you have an Openreach modem and what homehub you have.
Also run this checker and post back a screen shot of the results
http://www.dslchecker.bt.com/adsl/adslchecker.welcome
and use this speed tester then carry out the further diagnostics and post back a screen shot of all the results including your IP profile for up and down. This test must be done with a wired connection.
