Since last update, delays occur before response to keystrokes

There is a pause of half-second or more between pressing key and response appearing on screen. This makes scrolling down to desired bookmark, for example, very difficult if not impossible

I've noticed that there seems to be a few similar issues related to iTunes 10.3.1 recently.
I'm guessing that Apple stuffed up with this update.

    I get no response when trying to erase history and/or cookies in Safari since last update.  The command line words are light gray and will not respond to touch.  Thank you.

    Hi Amish,
    I should have mentioned that I have signed out of the iCloud Control Panel several times and no syncing occurs.
    Thanks for your response anyway. I appreciate your feedback.

  • Address Book repetitive crashes since last updates ?

    Hello,
    I do apologize for the length of this post but I don't know how to shorten it without removing some details useful to understand the problem encountered.
    My sister has got an intel iMac with Tiger 10.4.10 and since last updates (10.4.9 and/or 10.4.10) she cannot use AB more than some seconds. It crashes consistently everytime it is open, even if no other action is done. There are also problems with iChat, iCal, Safari and Mail (but less than with AB).
    When I visited her recently, I had a look to the console (even though I'm far from being an expert myself but I tried to find a track before asking here).
    I noticed that for both crashes (Safari and AB), there was this mention :
    quote
    +CFPropertyListCreateFromXMLData(): plist parse failed; the data is not proper UTF-8. The file name for this data could be:+
    + /Users/nnnnn/Library/Caches/com.apple.AddressBook/MetaData/.info+
    + The parser will retry as in 10.2, but the problem should be corrected in the plist.+
    +Error in createMutableDictionaryValue:1012 for property 'URLs' 'XML parser error:+
    + Unexpected character = at line 1+
    +Old-style plist parser error:+
    + Unexpected character '0x3d' at line 1+
    +Aug 23 19:03:07 Ordinateur-2-nnnnn crashdump[465]: Exited process crashed+
    +Aug 23 19:03:07 Ordinateur-2-nnnnn crashdump[465]: crash report written to: /Library/Logs/CrashReporter/Exited process.crash.log+
    unquote
    because of the "+not proper UTF8+" I tried to change it in AB preferences/vCard/encodage in "+proper UTF8+" and because of "+Old-style plist parser: error Unexpected character+" I tried to check and validate fonts of Fontbook. Unsuccessfully.
    Back home, I searched on the web and read somewhere that there could be a problem with the "catalog" that could only be repaired by DiskUtility from the install disk. That was done today but the "*hard disk seems to be OK*" and AB crashed as usual when open.
    there were two crash reports, one for AB and one for ABsync (? curious since she has no .mac account and does not sync her mobile phone).
    The AB crashlog(1) finishes so :
    quote
    +Thread 3 Crashed:+
    +0 <<00000000>> 0xffff0b54 __memcpy + 948 (cpu_capabilities.h:228)+
    +1 ...apple.AddressBook.framework 0x9478a9f7 c4_Column::FetchBytes(long, int, c4_Bytes+
    unquote
    and the ABSync crashlog(2) :
    quote
    +Thread 0 Crashed:+
    +0 <<00000000>> 0xffff0af6 __memcpy + 854 (cpu_capabilities.h:228)+
    +1 ...apple.AddressBook.framework 0x9478a9f7 c4_Column::FetchBytes(long, int, c4_Bytes+
    unquote
    and finally when I asked her for a screenshot of her ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook, I was surprised (comparing with my folder) to find she has three ABPerson.skIndexInverted files (I have only one) the second file is ABPerson.skIndexInverted.218 and the third ABPerson.skIndexInverted.286.
    I suppose two are toomuch but which ones have to be delete ...
    Sorry for this (too) long post and hope the light will come from some reader better educated in hard and softwares than us.
    (1) (2) I have a longer version of these crashlogs but this post is already very long and I'll post them only on request (if needed)!

    Hello Josy.
    After fixing the filesystem issues, which you say you’ve already done, try re-creating the Address Book files that may have become corrupt, one at a time, as follows — or restore them from a backup if you have one:
    1. Quit Address Book, Mail, and any other applications that might use Address Book for something. Or just quit all applications to be on the safe side.
    2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/. Make a backup copy of this folder, e.g. by dragging it to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down. This is where all your contacts are stored.
    3. Go to ~/Library/Preferences/. Move com.apple.AddressBook.plist and com.apple.AddressBook.abd.plist (if it exists) out of there (e.g. to the Desktop). Check whether the problem is fixed.
    4. If Address Book keeps crashing, go to ~/Library/Caches/ and move the Address Book and com.apple.AddressBook folders to the Trash (there is no need to empty the Trash yet). Check whether the problem is fixed.
    5. If Address Book keeps crashing, go to ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/ and trash any ABPerson.skIndex files you may see there. Check whether the problem is fixed.
    6. If Address Book keeps crashing, try again trashing both AddressBook.data and any ABPerson.skIndex files that may have been re-created, then rename AddressBook.data.previous to AddressBook.data.
    7. If Address Book keeps crashing, try moving the entire AddressBook folder out of ~/Library/Application Support/.
    The above procedure may introduce synchronization issues if you use .Mac or iSync to synchronize your Address Book with other computers or devices, so be sure to back up your Address Book data now if the problem is fixed.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.

  • It came to my attention there a new program working with itune since last update named Apsdaemon.exe its been using 99% of my processor when its active any idea why so much and will it be fix eventually? And why is it so Heavy consuming ?

    It came to my attention there a new program working with itune since last update named Apsdaemon.exe its been using 99% of my processus when its active.
    Any idea why so much and will it be fix eventually because before last update i never encounter any issue using Itune? Now when that aplication or extention from Itune is working my computor froze to a huge alt. I play video games online and love listening to my music with itune playing in the background and normally was able to have firefox open and a program called ventrillo all working at the same time and now i can barelly have itune and play a game. As soon it start been choppy i just control alt delete wait 5 minute to close down apsdaemon.exe when i'm capable most of the time i have to restart my computor. And why is it so Heavy consuming on the process its memory utility is under the 100ko i believe so why 99% of my processus is been use ?
    a good exemple i could give is itune.exe working it shows process 02% for 123 000ko that is light and perfect.

    Wow, Karan Taneja, you've just embarrassed yourself on a worldwide support forum.  Not only is your post ridiculous and completely inappropriate for a technical support forum, but it also shows your ignorance as to whom you think the audience is.  Apple is not here.  It's users, like you. 
    If you would have spent half the time actually reading the Terms of Use of this forum that YOU agreed to by signing up to post, as you did composing that usesless, inappropriate post, you (and the rest of us on this forum) would have been much better off.

  • Cannot sync with Outlook since last update

    Hello,
    Since last update of Sony PC Companion, I cannot synchronize anymore Outlook with Gmal calendar and contacts. A strange error occurs and then PC Companion stop to work. I have to kill it. In order to restart it, I need to restart the computer. Since last update of PC Companion, it has requested me to setup again the parameter of the synchronization, which is strange. Then synchronization fails:
    Anyone can help me?
    Thanks in advance, Tristan

  • My song/ album-mixed up, missing contacts, wants verify my email passwords...all since last update...help

    My song and album covers are mixed up, I am also missing tons of my contacts, my phone shutdown on it's own yesterday and it's been repeatedly asked me to verify my email passwords...all since last update...help

    I have the same problems with emails and it has possibly cost me business. I deleted a load that I thought were from Facebook before noticing that the subjects were not always matching the content. I have since found out that emails were sent to me regarding some freelance work and as I did not reply they have gone elsewhere that I must have deleted because the subject said they were from Facebook.
    it is still happening with emails received today.

  • Since last update on Mavericks, the picture attachement to a movie in iTunes no longer works. Any idea ?

    Since last update on Mavericks, the picture attachement to a movie in iTunes no longer works. Any idea ?
    Picture added is not displayed in the finder ; when transfering the movie to an Ipad, it is not displayed either.
    iMac 27', Mavericks 10.9 + iTunes 11.1.2

    Working here just fine. Try reinstalling:
    Reinstalling Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • IMAC mirroring is not working with my IMAC and Apple TV since last update

    Hi friends,
    since last update I am facing problems with my IMAC and airplay via apple tv to my HD TV screen. It is not working. Only audio but not video. I believe it has something to do with IMAC mirroring, which is not possible to select only expanded desktop. Airply on my TV is working with my IPAD, so it should be a problem with my IMAC only.
    Did someone of You make the same experience or know what to do?
    Thanx in advance

    The blue circles next to the mivies do not apear anymore since last update , can i put them back to see wich movies un-watched.

    That happened because you synce'd your phone to a new computer, the phone can only be synce'd with one library. You can get all your songs back if they were puchased in itunes. Go to purchased in itunes store and download is at the bottom of the page.
