Slow synce with 10.5

I have the 10.5 of itunes
and when i am doing synce to any kind of apple device
the synce is very slow.
More than that when i tried to transfer purchased app to my computer it dosent transfer.
and sometimes the itunes cause my computer to frize or stuck.
It never happend with the last version so it dosent my computer.
please fix it

Yup, this is a well known problem to the discussion groups, but apple continues to deny it exists. The discussion boards are littered with different permutations of this same problem. Interestingly, it doesn't seem to matter which mac you have, as it is affecting MBP, Macbook, and Air. Booting into windows makes it disappear, which makes me believe it is likely due to 10.5.2
I went to the apple store and (eventually) got a new Macbook, and I did not 'upgrade' to 10.5.2

  • Nokia E75 slow sync with MFE

    Hello
    Just got my new E75 a couple of days ago. My old HTC S740 was beginning to have problems with the buttons.
    But i use the E75 for work, and i sync with my companys exchange server. But this sync is very slow. Wenn i recieve an email it will take up to 10 min before the phone finds out. It is the same if i delete an email on the phone. My sync setting are continusely sync.
    In my old HTC it only took a couple of seconds:-)
    I dont sync at night but i start at 06.00 and if recieve an email at nigth it will take hours before the phone finds out.
    Any advice or help is much apriciatet.

    In addition to mentioned above, here is the part of MFE log:

  • Is there a connection b/t the 3.0 launch and slow syncing with iTunes??

    Not sure if since the launch of 3.0 that there is a relation between slow syncs and traffic on Apple's servers? I know that I'm syncing with my own computer when I do a manual sync, but just curious.
    Otherwise, is anyone else having problems with painfully slow syncs after 3.0 has been installed?

    I am experiencing this as well, and I am currently in the process of un-synchronizing my apps then adding them back in a few at a time. However, I also think my slower-than-usual sync might be as a result of the new option in iTunes to, "Encrypt iPhone Backup," which I selected right after I updated the software.
    The reason I think it's the backup encryption is because after I updated to 3.0, the phone rebooted, etc., I was perusing the new options in iTunes, and I saw the option to encrypt. I checked the box, created a password at the prompt, and it started backing up the iPhone again.
    This time, it was sloooooow! It barely showed a hint of shading in the status bar after a minute, and I decided to cancel the sync. But I never unchecked the "Encrypt iPhone Backup" option (I forgot to). So perhaps if any of you have that option selected, it could also be the culprit or at least part of the problem.
    Though I'm no fan of Windoze, take heart, PC users: I'm on a MacBook Pro, and this is happening to me, too.

  • ITunes 10.5 very slow syncing with idevices not a backup issue

    I have the latest itunes 10.5.2 installed on my 32 bit Windows 7 pc.  Ever since i upgraded my ipod 4 and iphone 4 to ios 5 it syncs very slowly with itunes (1 song aka 5 mb every 2 min and takes like 7 min to start syncing). i have tried restoring my phone and ipod with a new profile, making my ipod or iphone backup to icloud so that kills the long backup issue, reinstallled windows and just have itunes, reinstall itunes and wipeout the appledrivers then reinstall.  The devices sync fine when i use a mac that isnt mine. i also have tried outher windows pcs with no luck. im out of ideas and im tired of wating 4 hrs just for a audiobook or a movie to sync.

    Yeah seriously, I have my first gen iPhone and never had a issue with it. Blackberry always had a horrible desktop manager for the PC for YEARS and I always had to debug the issues myself for clients. Unfortunately for a lot of my clients the Blackberry is a better device for business, just horrible desktop software.
    Eventually I'll push my client to move over to hosted exchange server, But for right now before making that push, I need to resolve this issue with the Blackberry sync. I would hate for all the work and conversion over to the Mac to be wasted over a simple issue that possibly can be resolved by a simple setting I'm over looking.
    It's also a possibility the extremely slow syncing can be caused by years of unorganized entering of contacts, but trying to sort out over 2000 contacts would be near impossible for a person with a busy schedule.

  • [SOLVED] Pacman: slow sync with dlink dsl-2740b

    Hi guys,
    I've a very strange problem.
    My pacman very slow when sync database with this router: dlink dsl-2740b.
    That's not a pacman issue, but I hope you can tell me some option that I should modify into my router settings.
    I'm using pacman 3.5.1 and I can't upgrade it.
    I'm experiencing another issue: akregator slow fetch... only it, thunderbird fetch normally.
    I hope this could help.
    Obviously I've already tryed to change mirror in mirrorlist.

  • Pocket Mac Slow Sync with Entourage 2004

    It takes as much as 2 hours to sync my contacts, calendar, and tasks from Entourage 2004 to my Blackberry Cuve 8330.
    Does anyone have a solution or suggestion? I appreciate your assistance.

    As per the reply to your other post with the same question:
    This is not something to worry about or be concerned with. Firstly, the paging counts will depend on how long the system has been running since the last boot, but MacOS is designed to actively page out and in, so in itself, the fact your system shows it is doing so means nothing at all.
    If your computer is exhibiting some indication of a problem, I suggest you start a new thread here and describe what you are experiencing. That way we can help you directly with the specifics of your problem. On the other hand, if you have just seen the comments regarding paging and system performance and have checked your own Mac to see what it's doing - the answer is that in the absence of an indication of a problem, it's very likely doing exactly what it ought to be doing!

  • Apple TV song streaming interrupted, very slow sync with keynote

    When I try to play a song or a playlist from iphone (4S and 5)  or ipad (mini) via Airplay on Apple Tv, the music is interrupted several times, sometimes the first track, sometimes after 3 track, no rules. Wifi signal is good.
    Other issue with Keynote on the iPad. I am trying to mirror a deck but it is very slow, I have to wait 2 to 3 sec between each slide
    can someone help me?
    thank you

    Thanks for the reply. I used iStumbler on the MacBook Pro and could see three other networks besides my own, and they were all on Channel 11. Mine is on Channel 6 and, given there's no overlap between channels that are separated by 5 channels or more, there should be no interference.
    However, the Apple TV reports more channels than iStumbler does and there's no way to know what channel they're on. (Hmmmm, maybe I should move the Mac to the vicinity of the ATV 2.)
    However, my local network is involved when the MacBook Pro connects to the internet - I'm using Wi-Fi, not Ethernet - so, if the MacBook Pro can upload at 1MB/sec. to the internet (and that's throttled), why is it uploading at 50-100KB/sec. to the ATV 2?

  • Extremely slow sync with AAC conversion on

    I noticed that my system doesn't sync quickly at all if I'm using AAC conversion but, if I remember correctly, it should only need to do that conversion one time per song, right? It seems like it's redoing ALL of them each time I sync.

    Make sure your iTunes is version 9.1.1.12.
    If not, download & reinstall iTunes from here -> http://www.apple.com/itunes/

    We have 3 iPods in our family and we just use one PC to host iTunes, but because we have so much music, I have put the music on a network drive served from my file server (Windows Small Business Server - Windows Server 2003 based).
    There's no problem with this setup, except one:
    I've noticed that when iPods sync with iTunes, it takes a very long time, perhaps 5 times as long than when I had my music files on an external hard drive directly connected to the PC on which we run iTunes.
    This is fustrating. My question is: is there anything that can be done about this ?
    I can't really understand why this should be an issue. iTunes has, stored in the library files on my local PC, the details of all my music files. So when my iPod syncs, surely iTunes consults the iPod and consults what is in iTunes and figures out what should change - and then and only then should iTunes need to connect to the network drive to actually get any necessary files. Is my understanding wrong of what iTunes is doing when syncing an iPod ?
    The issue is that even with no changes, sync-ing is an issue.
    Any help on this gratefully received - have looked in this forum and other places, but haven't managed to trawl and info on my issue.

    Having been given an iPod video 60Gig as a present, I am sometimes forced to use it.
    Recently I tried - I downloaded and installed latest itunes 7.5 on the PC running Windows XP.
    Built up the library of music - tried to do a sync. So slow I nearly hit the PC. The transfer rate would merely get 40 Meg on in 5 minutes (thats my estimate all I know is it never finished). I tried to leave it running for 3 hours and still not finished - the size of music to transfer was about 2400 songs.
    I then tried to use Vista Home Basic - with itunes 7.5 - it wouldnt even recognize the ipod.
    After a few days of giving up and banging my head against the wall I tried Linux too - but that was slow too.
    I eventually went back to Vista and de-installed itunes 7.5 - found version 6.05 and installed it. It went through like clockwork (well as clockwork as can be it was magically fast but fast enough to fill half of the 60Gig).
    I then had the magic idea - why not update to 7.5 from 6.05 and guess what - its slow again painfully slow.
    Version 7.5 *****!

  • After upgrading to Mavericks my Gmail account is slow to sync with my iPhone

    I'm able to read my GMail message on my iPhone way before I see them on my Mac running the Mail app. It takes a long time sometimes never, for the messages to show up. I updated to the latest version of Mavericks that was suppose to fix this but it didn't help. I'm using the IMAP settings for Gmail.

    I tried deleting the gmail account from the Internet Accounts section in System Preferences and recreated it. That worked! The missing email showed up and I'm in sync with my iPhone again.

  • Outlook Sync with iPod Slow

    I sync my iPod with my Outlook (calendar and contacts) successfully but each time it takes at least 20+ minutes to complete a sync. I can understand it taking a while the first time you sync with Outlook but everytime thereafter? Why would just a few updates take 20+ minutes? Any insight on why this is happening would be great. Thanks!!!

    Subsequent update to software solved problem.

  • Slowness in the video's I view. The video is out of sync with the audio?

    When I'm on a website that displays video and audio, the two are not in sync with one another. This constantly happens. Whether I'm watching a music video on youtube, or watching a discussion on yahoo finance, the problem is always there. Can someone explain why things are out of sync (video--audio) , and is there something I can do to remedy the issue? Thank you.

    You can check for problems caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and possibly downgrade to Flash 11.2 or 10.3.

  • IPod classic is slow to sync with itunes stored on WD 3TB Mybook Live

    Hello!
    My itunes library is stored on a 3TB WD Mybook live external storage device. Ever ince I moved all my itunes media to mybook live my ipod classic takes forever to sync with itunes. Prior to mybook live I had all my media stored on a WD external storage unit without any problems.
    Has anyone else experienced syncing issues with an ipod, etc with WD mybook live?
    Thanks!

    I'm having a similar problem. I connect my iPod to my computer, iTunes recognizes, says do not disconnect, synching iPod, but it takes forever, even though I only have like 2 new songs in iTunes. Running iTunes 7.1.1 and 60GB iPod.

  • Z10 does not sync with Google contacts

    I've had my Z10 for about a week and am trying to set it up. I am trying, and failing, to replace an Android device with this phone. I used the easy setup for "Email, calendar, and contacts" to link the phone to my gmail/google account. That account has two-step verification enabled and the setup program duly collected the verification code. All three accounts got set up and populated with the latest from google.
    But ..... if I make a change via a web browser on my PC (an up-to-date Arch Linux system), those changes simply don't get picked up by the phone, even with the sync interval set to 5 minutes. This is not a matter of not waiting long enough. It's a matter of sync not working. The phone does pick up new email messages arriving and new calendar entries.
    If I try to change the sync interval, after the 'save', I'm told that my login credentials were not correct. After one of those episodes, I deleted the 'contact' account and added a new one, this time using the caldev approach under 'advanced settings'. This behaves the same way (except that it requires an application-specific password from Google, rather than honoring the fact that I'd already supplied a valid two-step code). Contacts get loaded as part of the account setup, but no further sync-ing happens.
    I've wasted almost an entire day on this. Googling reveals plenty of other people complaining of the same problem and over a two-year time period. You would think that Blackberry, now the 90-pound weakling in the mobile hardware business, would pay careful attention to making their software work correctly with the largest purveyor of email, calendar and contacts. But they haven't.
    It's too bad, because this system has a lot to recommend it (I am a retired computer professional and spent almost 50 years of my life developing software and managing large and small software projects and I am confident that I know good stuff when I see it, and much of this system *is* good). But my primary requirement is that the phone be a good organizational tool and if it ignores changes to my contacts, it's useless to me and I will return it and stick with the less elegant, but more functional Android, unless someone has a bright idea for how to fix this.

    Well, I tried a workaround: use Link to sync the phone to Outlook. I just want a way to edit contacts with a computer and sync them with the phone, and very occasionally go the other way when circumstances require. You know, like we did with Palms 20 years ago?
    What I found was that sync-ing contacts 1 way from device to computer produced no contacts in Outlook. Just utterly frustrated, I called the place where I bought it to try to get some help, they were clueless (and trying to call Blackberry is a waste of time; they won't talk to you unless you have a paid support contract), and so I asked for and got an RMA # and return label.
    But still thinking about this, I poked around in the phone and noticed the BBLink accounts for calendar and contacts and thought "can it be that this system, which provides a nicety like Hub, which gives you an integrated, chronological view of *all* your communications -- calls, texts, emails, etc. -- be only sync-ing the BBLink accounts, not the Google accounts?". This is correct, difficult as it is to believe. So I exported my contacts from Google, imported them to Outlook, and did a 1-way sync from the computer to the device, and, mirabile dictu, the contacts showed up in the phone. After about an hour and half. Further synchronizations, done after some cleanup of my contacts were also very slow, though not this slow, since few contacts were actually being transferred in these incremental synchs.
    Whoever wrote the synchronization part of Link clearly doesn't understand the concept of complexity of algorithms. (S)he also clearly didn't test this code on a contact data set of any significant size. I have about 1800 contacts. I had about the same number many years ago when I had a Palm that would sync an order of magnitude faster than this Blackberry setup and do so on much slower hardware with a slower communications channel (a serial port). 
    I also found that two-way synchronization produced some very odd messages, such as telling me that essentially all the contacts were in conflict. I abandoned the idea very quickly of ever trying a two-way sync (again, standard practice with Palms).
    Link is clearly a crock, but I think I've coerced it into doing what I need. I have until the end of January to decide whether to keep the Z10, and as I said in my original post, there's a lot I like about this phone. So I will use that time to see if I really have found a workaround for this ridiculous synchronization weak spot.
    Hello, 
    I`m glad you figured out a way to do what you need to do. I have red before some other people having issues with BB Link and Outlook. I never used Outlook - I prefer Google account, which for me has worked very well, regardless what phone I use. It is true, it can take some time to sync in everything but for me it never took days as others have said. 
    However, once the huge amount of data is synched to your phone, you don`t need to worry about further time consuming synching. 
    Are you saying that synching with Google *contacts* works for you? In the sense that after you have the phone loaded up with all your Google contacts, if you make a change to the contacts with a web browser that the change appears in the phone? And vice-versa? Neither of those cases work for me. One wrinkle: I use two-step verification on my Google account. Do you? I am very suspicious that two-step verification is the cause of my issue with contacts synchronization (though, as I said in my original post, email and calendar synch do work).
