Safari suffering slow down when browsing Facebook

Morning everyone,
Well what can i say, the title says it all.
When browsing Facebook with Safari (version 6.0.1) after about 10 minutes or so, Safari becomes very unresponsive, massive slow down, freezing, beachballing etc, any other sites im on whilst the Facebook tab is open also suffers too,
I use google chrome and its absolutely fine, so 2+2 being 5, im guessing its an issue with my Safari, maybe an installed plug in or something.
Any help resolving this would be greatly appreciated.
Its on a Macbook Pro Retina running ML 10.8.2
(Bit new to the mac so please be gentle ;-))
thanks
Scotty

  • Safari browser seems to slow down when working with my wifi ASUS AC 68U router

    safari browser seems to slow down when working with my wifi ASUS AC 68U router - any ideas on why?

    Is your problem with Safari on the iPad, or some MacBook Air?
    Are you sure that the ASUS firmware is tested with the device having trouble and its operating system?
    Note: MacBook Airs do not run iOS.  They run Mac OS X, Windows or Linux.

  • Macbook Pro, random white lines appear when browsing Facebook

    Recently when browsing Facebook, random white horizontal lines appear across the screen when scrolling up and down. 
    They will mostly go away when I move my mouse cursor across the screen.
    I saw another post about this a few minutes ago (dated May 8) but now it no longer appears.
    Anybody have any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    Is there any way I can find out if its the cord withhout taking the screen apart?

  • Songs slowing down when I type

    I'm running iTunes 7.7.1 on a new computer. iTunes had no problem on my old one, but on my new one, the songs slow down when I type, which is rather annoying, since I listen to music while, you know, typing. I'm on WinXP Pro, and everthing else is working great. Any ideas?

    What tools, Mostly I work with iWeb using iPhoto, Aperture, Photoshop TeXture Adobe FormsCentral for Acrobat etc. making and editing Web Sites. Often I have many Apps open simultanously.

  • Excel slows down when network drive is mapped

    Since a couple of months we are experiencing strange behaviour of excel (2011) on Lion 10.7.5
    Excel versions from 14.3.1. to 14.3.4 all the same behaviour.
    Symptom 1)
    When I connect the Time Capsule drive , Excel slows down by factor 100 when entering text. Needs up to 2 seconds to react on a key stroke.
    When I disconnect the handle, excel works fast again.
    (repeatable, reproducible)
    Symptom 2)
    on the network drive, always at the same place, a file named ~abcde.xls... occurs (exact name forgotten, but it is a recent file name
    preceded with a tilde sign)
    deleting of the file does not affect speed
    the file reappears occasionally (TC backup is switched off!)
    Where is the ghost??? :-D
    maybe these symptoms are uncorrelated.
    Why the heck does Excel slow down when I open the network drive??
    Why does this happen on 10.7.5 and not on 10.6.8?
    Anyone any idea?
    thanks,
    Stefan

    Thanks. Away on holiday right now, but will do it as soon as I get back next week.
    Out of curiosity, the external drive works fine when connected directly via USB to the laptop. I took that to mean that the problem wasn't to do with the drive, but probably the network. Is it possible there could be a problem with the drive which only shows up when it's used as a network drive?

  • HELP - 88.2 k 24-bit wav file is slowing down when imported to garageband

    i have an 88.2 k 24-bit wav file that is slowing down when imported to garageband. How do i get around this problem?

    You need to convert it to 44.1 16 bit. You can do that with iTunes.

  • Slow down when processing image clipping in photo shop with pen tool

    Adobe cs5 slow down when processing image clipping use with pen tool. The path is applying after few seconds when we draw on the image. My system supporting 4 GB memory with 64 bit.

    The main thing i use paths for in photoshop is extracting objects from photos.
    Other uses include stroking paths with the paint tools. For example, if you had
    a powerline to remove, one could trace the line with the pen tool and then stroke
    the path with spot healing brush set to content aware fill.

  • Internet speed slows down when connected via airport express

    Internet speed slows down when connecting via airport express. When connecting directly via the timecapsulethe internet speed is ok, when connecting via the airport express the speed slows down.What can I do to change that? Any suggestions?

    Turn off the AirPort Express completely as a test, and move your computer very close to the location of the Express.
    As I said before, the Express can only extend the bandwidth (speed) that it receives from the Time Capsule, so the speed that you see there with the Express powered off will be the fastest speed of which the Express is capable.
    The Express will make the signal go further when it extends....but it will not make the signal go faster.
    A good location for a device that extends wirelessly is a point that is about half the distance from the Time Capsule and the general area that needs more wireless coverage.
    If you locate the AirPort Express too far from the Time Capsule or there are more than a couple of walls in the signal path, the signal will be very slow by the time that it reaches the Express....and the Express simply extends a signal that has already slowed down significantly.
    If you already have the Express located about half the distance between the Time Capsule and general area that needs more wireless coverage, how many walls, ceilings or other obstructions are there in the signal path between the Time Capsule, the AirPort Express and the area that needs more coverage?
    Often, due to obstructions, it is just not possible to achieve good performance when you try to extend a network wirelessly. The solution is connect the AirPort Express to the Time Capsule using a wired Ethernet connection.
    There is virtually no signal loss with this type of connection, so the Express can be located exactly where it is needed and it will produce a much faster wireless signal in this type of setup.

  • Firefox slows down when opening a site with animated gifs

    After updating to FF4, I find that whenever I try to open a page that has multiple animated gifs on it, firefox slows down tremendously. CPU usage goes up to 50-75% and all animated gifs are moving really slow.
    It's not only large animated gifs, but it also occurs on forums that have animated smilies. I never had this problem in FF 3.6 nor any other browser (IE, Chrome, Safari). If I start FF4.0 without any add-ons or plugins it does the same thing. Even with a fresh install. Does anyone have a solution to his problem? Since I can't use some of my favorite sites now with FF, without my pc slowing everything down.

    Disabling the hardware acceleration worked for me!

  • I have a Belkin bluetooth keyboard attached to my Ipad 3. I would like to know if there is any way to have the arrow keys scroll down when browsing web pages?

    I just got my Ipad 3rd generation a few days ago and for my case I got the bulky BELKIN Bluetooth keyboard. I notice that when I press down the arrow keys it does not seem to scroll down when searching a web browser or looking up web pages. However it works fine when scrolling down on office apps such as Pages. I'm wondering if is there a way to make the arrow keys on the keyboard scroll down when on an internet web page like my Mac does.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Why adobe flash player slows down all browser's performance?

    I rememeber longer ago there were problems with flash player plugin inside Mozilla's Firefox browser causing the plugin to crash: Adobe Flash plugin has crashed - Prevent it from happening again | Firefox Help
    After a recent update (17,0,0,134) it almost never crash but it slows down all browsers performance untill it finally launches next video. Almost the majority of all news sites use flash player
    to launch its' commercial. And it has several such boxes with commercials, for example: www.lrytas.lt
    And while I'm listening to music via youtube and on the other tab reading news on that site, when music clip ends and the browser starts to load other music videoclip,
    then the whole browser's work is paralysed - I can't write text, cannot scroll down, cannot click any link. All this is because the system is busy while in youtube next clip is loading.
    Mouse marker becomes into round rotating circle indicating loading procedure (firefox is not responding). And it takes time - up to 10-15 seconds to launch new video. Then sudenly all my actions is executed after such pause - my text is typed,
    my scroll down  and maybe link is pressed. All this slowing down procedure is annoying. It wastes a lot of time. I open task manager and I see that Firefox is taking 900.000 or 1300.000 K of memory. My OS is Windows 7.
    I close whole firefox.exe process and then it automatically close plugins. Then I open the browser again and it ask to automatically recover interrupted sites, I agree with it and then it opens everything again. And again
    it is working continuously for some time untill slows down browser again. With more tabs more problems. Moreover, view of a video sometimes comes too late too. Some images are lost as system is too late already because
    loading procedure took too much resources.
    Long long ago flash player was better. But today with a rise of new ****** substandart computers like iphones ipads you have to evolve the player in such a way that it has to play on everything, but its performance on different platforms
    is not the same.
    Who is guilty - my PC, Firefox or the plugin? Or maybe I am?
    In My Cold Opinion, users actions can't be ignored. The preference should be user's continuous control over a system load.

    You are right about high CPU usage. It was even when playing various computer games. I don't have problems anymore. But not because I disabled all addons. I did these things:
    In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter. The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear. Click I'll be careful, I promise! to continue to the about:config page.
    Search for dom.ipc.plugins.flash.disable-protected-mode in the list of preferences.
    Double-click on the preference to toggle its value from false to true. (If the setting is already true it means that Flash Protected Mode is currently disabled.)
    Close Firefox.
    Restart Firefox.
    And since then I don't have that particular problem with overloading. I just disabled some of flash protected mode. How is that related with "overloading"? Strage. Hardware acceleration I've enabled again as without it whole text field in news sites is sometimes black.
    Thanks anyway Mr.

  • PSE 10 system slows down when adding files to catalog

    I recently switched from PSE 3 to PSE10 and had issues converting the catalog.  I never did resolve those so I decided to start with creating a new catalog in PSE 10.  My first session of adding photos worked fine.  When I restarted the task the next day, I was asked in participating in making the product better by sharing information about my use with Adobe.  I agreed to participate and very quickly noticed that my computer slowed considerably when adding photos from my hard drive.  The process still worked but I experienced a dramatic increase in the time it took for photos to be added (e.g. the cursor spins for a couple of minutes while the task is working).  I went under my account preferences and opted out of the product participation program but the problem has persisted.  I rebooted the computer to see if that would help but it has not.  I have turned off all media analysis and both optimized and repaired my catalog and while this has provided some improvement, there are still instances where the system slows down.  Now it seems that every other folder's worth of pictures (does not matter how many photos) I add causes this delay.
    I appreciate any help anyone can provide in determining why this slow down keeps occuring. 
    FYI, I am running a new Windows 7, 64-bit system with 8GB DDR-3-1066MHz, and 2 TB hard drive.

    Have you also edited the Preferences (Performance) to increase the amount of RAM that PSE can use?
    Do you have many background processes running?  Having a single HDD means that everything running on your computer has to wait in the queue for disk access.
    How many photos are you importing?
    What file types are the photos?
    How large are the photos?

  • Itunes slows down when sharing music is enabled

    hi,
    i searched through the forums and i didn't see that exact issue so i decided to post it.
    as soon as i share my library itunes completely slows down.
    - starting to play songs takes 5 seconds and displays the rotating rainbow circle
    - rating songs takes 5 seconds also and displays the rotating rainbow circle
    - resuming play after pausing also
    there are two more interesting issues:
    - i have a few albums where it doesn't happen! the albums aren't encoded different, have the same version of tags, are on the same drive in an adjacent folder. i tried reimporting songs, placing it into different folders or harddrives. no changes.
    - only 2% of my library is shared and it seems like most of it is recently added music. but: no differences in encoding, tags, place on the harddrive. renaming, readding, moving the files didn't change the situation.
    i also disabled automatic updating of playlists, deleted all my playlist folders, reinstalled itunes, tried basically everything.
    what does itunes do in the network when playing, rating songs, ...? i'm using a fast wlan, but i don't think that's the issue or does itunes reexport the xml-file after every play? has it something to do with auto-update-play-counts after every song (which i couldn' find in the preferences)?
    any help would be greatly appreciated!
    regards,
    eric.
    by the way: i'd loooooove to see pandora-like functionality in the next major versin of itunes!!! :)))

    When you are sharing your iTunes, any other users you share with are accessing your hard drive and music foilder simultaneously with you. Since shared users are not playing exactly the same song at the same time as you, your hard drive's heads are scanning and reading from more points than they would be with you alone listening. There is a need to cache some part of the files for sharing, and that uses a bit of your RAM too. I guess it would be similar to saying that your car drives fine as long as you are driving it alone. Pile a few friends in with you, tow their cars behind yours, and suddenly, your car has nowhere near the performance it did with just you in it. Aside from adding more RAM, buying a fatser hard drive or stepping up your processor, this is simply an issue with sharing one system between more than one user at the same time, and it can't be remedied.

  • I-pod shuts down when browsing album covers

    After updating the i-pod touch to the new Op System 5 the player will shut down when I browse the album covers (holding the i-pod horizontal). It will work for about 5 covers but then shuts down. I did a reset but did not help
    Anybody who is familiar with the problem?

    hiya!
    within 30 seconds or so my computer shuts down and starts up again.
    are you getting any sort of blue screen? if so, what numerical and text codes are you getting with it? (ie 0x[zeros/letters/numbers] CAPSANDUNDERSCORES)
    here's a reference on the sorts of things i'm asking about:
    Troubleshooting Windows Stop Messages
    if you're not seeing a blue screen (or just a flash of one), we can use this technique to make hidden blue screens appear for us:
    1) Open your system control panel (Start->Control Panels->System).
    2) Select the "Advanced" tab.
    3) Click the "Startup and Recover" section's "Settings" button
    4) Verify that under "System Failure" the "Automatically restart" checkbox is not checked.
