Re: Why is EE connection just so HORRIBLY SLOW. Why cant it just maintain the Or

I had problem with slow broadband speed. Took a long time for EE to sort this out. I went on several websites and discovered that problem may have been caused by me switching off my router each time I used it. Apparently EE interprets router being switched off as an inability to deal with high speeds and therefore slows the speed down (computers are not my forte so please forgive my lack of technical knowledge here). Anyway since the speed was restored I have kept my router permanently switched on and now broadband speed is consistently good. I hope this helps.

: That was an old thread. Have your own!
As long as you don't switch off router too frequently the exchange kit (not the router) sees no fault. There is no harm switching off every evening.

Why is my macbook pro running so slow and how do I improve the speed?

why is my macbook pro running so slow and how do I improve the speed?

Write off the MS stuff as indicators for now--starting with Office 2008, they developed very long launch times. The time to launch 2008 on my old 1.25Ghz G4 and my MBP 2.2G are virtually the same. Even document opens/saves are slow compared to Office 2004 and earlier.
1) You have adequate hard drive space so that eliminates one of the usual suspects.
2) Check for runaway background processes. Quit all running user applications so the computer is at normal idle. Find Activity Monitor in Applications > Utilities and launch it. If you've not run it before, change the "Show" pulldown at the top of the AM window from its default of "User Processes" to "All Processes." There is a column for "%CPU." Click that column header to sort by CPU usage. Watch the processes "bubble" for about a minute to get a better picture of the usage.
If any process is using more than about 25 percent of the CPU cycles while the computer is idling, post the names of the processes and we can see if they can be eliminated. My MBP shows nothing using more that about 5 percent on any given test run as long as I close all my user apps.
3) If you have never done any sort of maintenance procedures, taht can slow you down. Simply restarting the computer a few times a week clear a lot of temporary files. You also may wish to review this article on the Mac OSX periodic maintenance scripts, which, if run, also do a lot of cleanup:
http://thexlab.com/faqs/maintscripts.html
There are other useful articles on file maintenance associated with the one. Here's the index:
http://thexlab.com/faqs/faqs.html
Check out articles with "Maintain" and "Tuning" in the titles.
4) Use Disk Utility to check the SMART Status of your hard drive. A failing drive can make things slow before it makes things stop.

I originally encrypted my hard disk. instead of just reformatting. I deleted hardisk entirely. Now I cant login. or do anything. I am in Afghanistan so internet is slow, I cant send it in the mail, and there surely isnt a apple store around here. HELP!!

Didn't want to make you feel like an Idiot. Just pointing otu that most all externals come, these days, formatted NTFS as the world runs on Windows computers and at least the last 2 Win OS version will only install and likes to use NTFS formatted drives. So most drive manufacturers Pre-Format their drive in that format.
What do you mean "I'm Cloning Time Now"? I don't get the TIME reference?
You Clone the install of OS X from a working Mac to the External. The Cloning willl make that external Bootable (It will boot on like Mac computers).
Then when that is done disconnect that external and connect it to your Mac. Start your Mac and it should boot off that external. If it doesn't then Restart and hold down the Option key and select the external as the boot drive.
Once the your Mac starts from the external the cloning program should already by running as it was running whenn the clone was made. Select the external as the source and your internal as the destination. you may want to shut the cloning program down and first use Disk Utility to Re-Partition your drive as One Partition.
Hopefully that will get rid of the encryption you enabled and give you a clean freshly formatted drive to clone to.
Then start up the cloniing software and do as pointed out above.

Why does iOS "connect" to a network even if it doesn't know the password?

The network's clearly protected, but it just "connects" and sits there. It puts a checkmark next to the network, but it's truly not connected.
Happens across devices on my iPhone as well.

Its not connected however if you have wifi activated and join automatcally selected, the WIfi radio in your phone will be scanning for availalble WIfi services and will lock on to the strongest or any open network ready to make the handahake.
The Router and your device are primed to exchange authorisation credentials on entry of a sutable passcode.
At this point your phone radio is broadcasting its existance *(and using power ) however the handshake has NOT taken place - You have simply pinged the server

Why is my connection with Apple so slow after activating Match

A couple of days ago I activated Match on my laptop. With about 15000 thousand songs it took a long time to sync and upload my missing songs. Crashed a couple of times during the process (iTunes went 'non-responsive'). May have been my impatience. Left it overnight and it got about 2/3 of the way through.
Went to work in the morning, taking my laptop with me and pausing the Match upload.
Got home that evening and all of a sudden my connection with Apple is running slow to non-existent. iTunes won't connect to the store. Match won't fire up. All other internet connectivity is normal. Went to download iTunes to re-install and the file is taking an hour to download when normally it would be 2-3 minutes.
Why would all my connectivity to Apple be so slow? Even if iTunes fully shut down and Match not operational I can't download anything from Apple with any speed. Like I said all othe internet connectivity is normal.
Thanks
F.

Seems to be fixed and due to Bonjour not being on (although I never turned it off between starting Match and it working then it stopping working).
Went into Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services and looked for anything Apple related which wasn't running.
Bonjour was the only service I found which was disabled. Turned this on then closed and re-started iTunes and Match now appears to be working.

Horribly slow printing on Network Printer (PC prints fast)

Hi,
I recently configured my lab computer which is HP laserject 4200 series (4320) on macbook pro (snow leopard 10.6.8). I tried configuring it both as a LPD and IPP. However, the printing jobs are horribly slow compared to other PC in the lab on the same network. For a 20 page document, it takes almost 10 minutes to print and the printer window says "Spooling LPR job xx% complete" and takes a long time to finish spooling. I fixed disk permissions, repaired disk, tried resetting printing system by right clicking on list of printers, readded printer couple of times, (offcourse restarted the computer). I can't seem to figure out whats the problem. Can anybody help?
Thanks

I just bought my Iphone 5, why is it that it is very slow or connot connect at all when nearby WIFI stations unlike the Ipad/Ipod units?

Have already taken the necessary steps but to no avail. I would like to take this oppurtunity to inquire from Iphone 5 users if they experienced the same..the gadget is very slow in picking up WIFI signal unlike the Ipad/Ipod units.. If this is the case then its a big draw back for Iphone 5..it's also draining its battery fast.

Did You upgrade iOS on the iPhone and ITouch?
It might be that you now need a new version of iTunes for the new version of iOS.
I am guessing here because you did tell us very much to go on.

just get the new iPad air and when connecting it to my laptop, why the battery is not charging?

A lot of computers don't provide enough power to their USB ports to charge the iPad at a sufficient rate - it may still be charging slowly, and should be a bit quicker if the iPad's screen is off (if you leave it for a while and then disconnect it from your computer you may find that it's battery percentage has gone up). The wall charger is usually the most efficient way to charge the iPad.

I have an epson xp600 and a mac book pro. Wireless printing is OK if I'm lucky for one time only then a 'failed to connect' message so I have to delete and re add the printer to get it working again (but just once!) then the same occurs. Why?

I am not certain this will fix your problem but I suggest you assign the printer a static IP address.
Using the printer's front panel, select Menu > Network > WLAN > TCP/IP > Boot method, and change it to "static". Provide a static IP address that is on your LAN's subnet.
For example, if you are using an AirPort Extreme, you might give it an IP address of 10.0.1.100. If you are using a Netgear or Linksys router that defaults to issuing 192.168.x.x addresses, you might give it an address of 192.168.1.100. That way, the printer will always "reside at the same address" on your network. If your router has the ability, you should reserve that address so that the router does not attempt to assign it to another DHCP device.
Then, go to System Preferences > Print & Scan, and delete your existing printer with the "–" (minus) button. Add it again, using the "+" (plus) button. In the window that appears, select the IP pane, and from the Protocol menu select "Line Printer Daemon (LPD)". In the Address field type the IP address you gave your printer.
If all goes well the "Pring Using" field will detect the printer at that address and automatically select the appropriate driver. You will see something similar to the following screenshot ("name" can be whatever you decide, and "location" is optional):
Click Add, then you can close System Preferences.
There are other possible reasons your printer is "not responding" which could include wireless interference from competing wireless networks, but try this "static IP" method first. It should mitigate the problem.
