Should it take 3 hours to load leopard?

You might want to start over. Erase and Install 10.5. Then update to 10.5.1. Then Parallels (You need the latest version (3.something I believe) to run on 10.5. If you have installed an earlier version, that might explain part of your problem.) After that you can install Vista.

Why do Youtube video clips and all others, for that matter, take hours to load and never play properly?

My java script is enabled, my machine running latest versions of Firefox and Windows and yet it is impossible to download and play any video clips as it takes forever to load and play and still does not play the clips as they were intended.

Since you mention Internet Explorer, I assume that you are on Windows.

Are you using the charger that comes with the iPad?
Many USBs do not supply sufficient current to effectively charge the iPad.

How is it that my Apple TV will instantly stream a Netflix movie yet it takes HOURS to load a movie rental?

I've tried everything. It makes no sense. So, Apple has made a Netflix device??? Anyone else have this problem and find a solution? I would really like to watch my movie right now rather than 1 hour and 26 minutes from now (currently the amount if time left before movie is ready to play).

AppleTV movie rentals are HD by default.
They are fixed size and weigh in around 3-4 GB size compared to 1-1.5GB for SD.
Enough of the movie has to download to allow it to play back without interruption - this is calculated and you get a 'ready to start in' figure. If you use the AppleTV for other things while waiting for a rental, unfortunately it seems to flush the part already downloaded so you have to start from scratch again.
If you go to iTunes Store Setting in AppleTV and disable HD rentals, it's likely any newer rentals (not existing ones) will play quicker in SD.
Test your sustained download speed somewhere like speedtest.net - you are probably getting around 2-3Mbps. A connection of around 6-8 Mbps is needed for near instant streaming. If your sustained speed is good it could be traffic shaping by your ISP, use of some DNS servers or even Apple's servers playing up.
Netflix on the other hand reduces stream quality for slower connections so plays almost immediately whatever the connection speed.

Should it take over 1 hour to load an update OS

Should it take over 1 hour to load an update OS on an iPad mini?

A lot can depend on your bandwidth, internet speed, etc. It can also depend on which update you are installing? Are you doing this OTA, or via iTunes. If OTA, then installation also includes expanding the download to the files needed to install. Installation via iTunes can normally not take quite as long since it isn't necessary to expand the files.

Logic Express takes 4-6 hours to load a Garageband project!??!!

When I open projects I have made with Garage Band in Logic Express, it takes 4-6 hours to load the song. Thats obviously not the way it is supposed to be.
On another machine I have Logic Pro. There opening a Garageband project is fast -30 sec or so.
Maybe I am crying for help? Or maybe there is something wrong with the software?
I have all my Garageband instruments on the startup volume, while I have most of my loops on another volume. That works just fine with Garageband. It also works fine with Logic Pro under 10.3.9.
The Garageband loops are on an external USB disk, and this hard disk is spinning constantly during those hours. Logic Express puts up messages like "Loading Audio Files for "Cellos.exs"" during this time. Incidentally Logic Express is not responding during this time, The above dialog say one can press command period to cancel the operation, but that does not work. All that is working is killing the application process.
The above behaviour occurs wether I have any loops in the project or not.
Is there a solution to this? Having all loops on the startup volume is not possible.

Thank you very much 'Windham Hillbilly'.
Yes, saving the song as an archive from GarageBand gives fast loading in Logic Express, fully comparable to my Logic Pro loading of non archive songs.
So, this takes care of the issue for me.
Now, if there really should be a 4-6 hour load time in the first place is a different matter.

How long should it take iOS 6.1 to load on my iPhone?

How long should it take iOS 6.1 to load on my iPhone? It's been 3 hours and it is stuck in the same part of the download.

I now have the new phone. The order number is still not appearing on My 02.
It turns out that when I bought the phone, it was assigned a new sim card/telephone number. Now there are two phone numbers on my o2 account - the one I use, the one that came with the new phone.
The order number is appearing under the new sim card's phone number, not the one I intend to use.
Hopefully, O2'll be able to update the order and link it to the telephone number I use. It's not a major problem (at all) but I'd rather have it connected to the number I use than a random number that came with the phone.

By cable standards it's not very fast. Assuming it runs at top speed with no hiccups at either end you can download about 650 KB/s. So, that suggests it will take a little over two hours. Of course transfers are rarely ever perfect, so could take more than two yours, realistically. My pipe is about four times faster than yours, and I've seen the download take twice as long as it "should."

HT4718 am trying to install OS X Lion for the first time. So far it has been downloading for about 2 hours. How long should it take?

Can anyone help please?
Lion download to iMac has been running for about 2 hours and is still not halfway yet. How long should it take? should I cancel and start again?

1500Kbs is 1.5Mbs. That is Kilo bits per second. There are 8 bits to a byte so if you divide 1500 (or 1,500,000) by 8 you get 187500 bytes a second. Divide 3.5GBs (3,500,000,000), that capitol B is for Bytes, by that 187500 you get 18666.666 seconds. Which needs to be divided by 60 to get the minutes and then again by 60 to get the hours.
5.1851xxx hours.
I use to have a 3Mbs DSL connection and it took me over 3 hours to download Lion. Now that I have a 19Mbs Cable connection it take about an hour to download and install.
So wait it will happen eventually. If you cancel and start again your are still going to wait 5+ hours.

Itunes store takes up to an hour to load front page

we just got a new mac and itunes takes up to an hour to load the front page of the store, when it finally does load if you click on tv shows (all I have done so far) it takes over an hour and by then I just gave up. Our internet connection is super fast. It says all the updates are current.

Are you connected via a router? Could be the router setting. Try connecting directly to your modem and see what happens. Worth a shot.
From there, if it doesn't help, maybe look into your security settings. Play around with your firewall and anti-virus if you have them. Maybe disable them for a bit and see if the wait decreases.

An app continues to say "installing" when nothing is happening. It has been several hours now. It's only a book so should not take this long. I have tried deleting it and that did not work.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have a iPad 2, when I let it go dead and then I put it on charge it takes about 6-8 hours to fully charge. Is that the normal time it takes to charge or could there be something wrong with my iPad 2.
