Safari super slow after latest update to 10.9.1. Please help. Thanks.
My internet is deathly slow after doing the update. Any advice? Other programs seem fine. Thanks, Yvette
Hi yipck,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I recommend starting with the tips in this article if Safari is loading web pages slowly:
Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found

ITunes running super slow after latest update, today.
I just updated my software on iTunes and suddenly it's running super slooooooow!
It takes about 2 to 4 minutes to open.
New computer. Running Windows 7. It's not my computer. I promise.
iTunes was super fast until I just updated the software, this morning.
Plus, now it doesn't recognize my iPhone 4.
All of other programs are still running at lightening speed.
So, any suggestions? I'm expecting my new iPhone 4s, today and really don't want to have any issues going in.
This is very frustrating!
Thanks!Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Why is Firefox slow after latest update?
I just updated to v24 and it is really lagging a lot. I've tried resetting, disabling add ons, updating add ons, restarting in safe mode... the whole nine yards. I've done every troubleshooting I can think of and it is still really laggy and slow. I have Windows 7 and a 64bit system. I didn't have this problem until the latest update.
This always seems to happen with updates. They fix a bunch of bugs, but create new ones, or don't fix old persisting ones. I was under the impression that Firefox speeds up with every update, but it would seem to be the opposite. I am perturbed that users have to jump through hoops to find workarounds. eg. Things were working just fine before, now that it isn't after the new update, we have to delete old user profiles, dig through subfolders to find duplicate files created to delete, and restart from scratch. Which can take hours of your time. All because Firefox messed things up. If Firefox broke it, they should fix it. Not us, we don't get paid to do their job. I'm always for "if it's not broke, don't break it, so you don't have to fix it." Also what's the point of having a "hardware acceleration" feature, if it doesn't work?

My mac has become very slow after latest update of yosemite
i have installed the latest update for yosemite and my mac is extremely slow. Its i5 2013 model. help please?
When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.
These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above.
Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first.
Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of it useless for solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. -
AE CC Slow after latest update?
I've noticed since the most recent CC update that AE is really unresponsive. Long delays to clicks. Saves take a few seconds. Nothing changed on this editing station but the AE CC update.
Win 7 64bit Pro
32GB RAM
2GB Nvidia
USB3 drives
Same as always, nothing changed as I said. Please, forgive my sounding like a complete jerk, don't try to send me in the "chasing the tail" stunt on this one with "have you tried blah blah blah on the workstation bit". The only thing that changed was the AE update.
What happened? I've checked with other users who are reporting the same issue since this update.Thanks Todd.
Updated to latest. Did testing. There's obvious improvement in the dropdown menus performance. However, there's no improvement in parameter controls on native AE effects (Hue/Saturation for example). Key entry and slider interaction show a consistent 6-7 second lag between activation to update (some 10-15 timed tests across multiple parameters). We've tested this across multiple native effects on basic layers (image, solid, adj, etc.).
Our verdict:
Partially addressed, at menu level. Thank you very much for this.
No change in parameter controls and screen refresh. Appears independent of resolution setting (full, half, quarter, etc.) and preview mode (adaptive, fast, etc.).
Our testing was done in brand new projects and across multiple new comps on the latest update using only AE native presets.
Hope this helps.
Best,
Tobias
p.s. I forgot to mention that the lag mentioned above was also tested on layer parameters, (position, rotation, etc.). Same results. -
Multicam editing in Premiere Pro CC very slow after latest update.
So I installed the latest update for Premiere Pro CC a couple of days ago and now every edit I make in my Multicam sequence takes about 10 seconds to take effect. No matter how small an edit I make. While it´s taking affect the computer just freezes.
Is it possible to downgrade or does someone have a sollution?@Devinclk: You specify that you're on 7.2. If that's accurate, then please update to 7.2.2. Among the many bugs fixed were several involving multicam.
@Mediatek: first off, as a CC subscriber you most certainly do have access to the CS6 version of PPro. On this download page, use the drop-down under "In This Version" midway down the left side of the page to select CS6, then click "Download." As to the problems you're having with CC, if you start a new thread and provide as much detail as possible, there's a good chance someone around here will be able to help troubleshoot it. Remember, while you're choosing to emphasize that you're "another struggling CC user," tens of thousands of customers are using the program without such problems. So there's a particular issue--or confluence of issues--causing particular problems in your case. The first step to resolving the problems is for you to share specific & thorough enough information for someone to help. -
My applications won't open after latest update on my MacBook...help?
I just updated itunes (10.5), iDVD, and Safari, as well as Security update 2011-006 and a HP Printer update. Upon restarting my computer, various programs do not open (iTunes, iMovie, iDVD, iPhoto, Chrome, etc.) It tries to open, but then a "enter program name here has unexpectedly quit" box pops up.
I'm not having any success with the little things i've tried to do. Safari seems to be the only application that is still working, though not at it's best performance.
Any thoughts out there?I'm having the exact same problem. It is amazing how many problems the Macs actually have. I'm glad to see Apple has discontinued their false advertising pretending that Macs have fewer problems than PCs. Maybe the FTC made them stop.
Anyone found a solution to this? I have work to do and my computer is now paralyzed. Have already used Leopard disk to repair drive and permissions. App icons blink for a bit like they are turning on but then disappear. Happened immediately after I downloaded the updates that Appled told me to download. -

I had my iphone 4 stolen and have been lent an iphone 3G, I have tried to restore the phone but its coming up with error 1015 and wont restore. I have the current Itunes software on my computer and there are no further updates to be done. Please help
Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state. Very rarely this error is caused by a hardware issue and requires service.

Safari slow after latest update 1-27-15
After updating my mac on with the new updates released on 1-27-15 Safari is almost unusable. It is so slow and hangs there indefinitely. It is not my internet service as things are running fine with all other devices - just my desktop where I updated. I have had to switch to Firefox for now so I could even write this. Please advise on a solution as Safari is my preferred browser so that all my apple devices can share info.
Security Update 2015 - 001 Ver. 1
Safari - 7.1.3
Remote Desktop Client Update 3.8.2
Those were the updates that were suggested as released on 1-27-15. After doing so, Safari is just about unusable. -
Adobe Story super slow after last update - PC & Mac
Hi,
Adobe Story has become very unresponsive after the last update. I've found this on my Macbook Pro and my work PC which has 24GB of RAM. In fact, I can barely surf the web on my Macbook Pro if Story is open now. It generally takes about 5 seconds for Story to respond when I type, change between applications, and scroll up or down.
I know this was an issue with a release in 2011. Has something similar happened again?
FrancoisI have tried both online and offline. Makes no difference. I think it’s actually becoming worse. Strange that it affects both my Mac at home and my PC at work. When I ran it on Mac last night, Story was using nearly all 4GB of my RAM.
Connect isn’t good for me this week. I’ll see if the problem persists and contact you next week. -

2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait for the script to run. It usually takes a few minutes. Then paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.

and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

My Mac is running super slow after upgrading to Mountain Lion....Help!
I'm really not very good with computers so I may need a bit more basic help
First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
One possible cause of a slow user interface is a large number of image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons. If you have more than a dozen or so such files, move them to another folder.
Otherwise, take these steps when you notice the slowdown.
Step 1
Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
Next, select the Disk Activity tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
Step 2
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Select the 50 or so most recent messages in the log. Copy them (command-C) to the Clipboard. Paste (command-V) into a reply to this message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. -
Pavilion g6t wont boot after bios update now just black screen please help!
I downloaded an update for the bios for my pavilion g6t-1d00 laptop running windows 7 64 bit. It started acting kind of funny but I didnt think anything of it til I tried to boot it up the next day and all I got was a black screen and a orange led light on the f12 button for the internet and the caps lock button after blinking afew times started the dredded two times every couple of seconds. I tried the windows key+B key power key, no luck. I cant access anything because I have no monitor and I'm at my wits end. I refuse to wipe my hard drive and start over even if I could! I cant access hp tools or manager or anything, please someone has to have a solution!
@Fuschia4me,
1. You will have to use another computer
2. Access the HP.com site with the BIOS updates available here is the link
3. You want to select the F.36 BIOS version
4. When you click on the update then click download and it will ask you to save or run, you want to save to a flash drive
5. Once done insert the flash drive into your laptop
6. Turn the computer on and press the windows and B key like before
If the process doesn’t work the first time I would try at least 2 more times.
Please respond back at your earliest convenience.
Thanks
Clicking the White Kudos star on the left is a way to say Thanks!
Clicking the 'Accept as Solution' button is a way to let others know which steps helped solve the problem!
