Slowness only after switching networks until airport is shut off and then..

Hello. I am asking this for a friend. I did do a search but did not come up with much. When she opens Safari (or Firefox) it is extremely slow at loading pages. If she shuts off the airport utility, waits a second then turns airport back on it seems to work just fine. Seems to happen after she moves to another network, but all of the networks that she moves to are her "known" networks.
Any Ideas???
Thanks everyone.
Steve

Hi
Did the person at the Apple store test her Airport card?
OpenDNS is an organization providing server codes that work in addition to those supplied by the IP. This helps speed up the flow of information to the computer. Also, provide protection against fraudulent sites (phishing).
Creating a new location rather than using the "automatic" function makes Safari more specific when accessing web sites. By contrast, the Automatic function searches for available networks, so theoretically there is an inherent lag in the process. I have a specific location set up for my Home. When traveling I switch back to Automatic.
You create a separate location by clicking on the Location drop down menu in the System Preferences>Network panel and selecting "edit". When the location panel appears, click on the + button to add a new one to the list. The gear icon on the panel allows you to duplicate or rename a location.
Here's how to enter the DNS codes in Leopard:
In the Network panel select your connection, then select "advanced". In the DNS panel add these codes:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
In the Network panel, if Airport is not at the top of the list, click on the "gear icon" at the left bottom. Select "set service order". When the help box opens drag Airport to the top of the list. Select "apply" when complete.
Restart Safari.

Hello StephanieeLovezYou,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone. I would be concerned too if my iPhone was only turning on when connected to power. I found an article with steps you can take when you encounter an issue like this. I recommend following the steps below:
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
Contact Apple Support.

After hibernation, when trying to login to MacBook Air, it does not accept my password. I have to shut off and then get prompted with the following: Mac OS X wants to use the "login" keychain. I put in the password there and it works. any suggestions?

after hibernation, when trying to login to MacBook Air, it does not accept my password. I have to shut off and then get prompted with the following: Mac OS X wants to use the "login" keychain. I put in the password there and it works. any suggestions?

Back up all data.
Launch the Keychain Access 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 Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select Change Settings for Keychain "login". In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked Keep login keychain unlocked is not checked, check it.
Select
Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

TS1398 After leaving a wi-fi connection my iphone will not automatically connect to the internet via the 3G network unless I turn it off and then on again. Is there a setting that can be changed to overcome this issue?

After leaving a wi-fi connection my iphone will not automatically connect to the internet using a mobile 3G network unless I turn my phone off and then back on again. Is there a setting that can be changed to overcome this?

Then I'm at a loss. Mine has switched automatically from the start, favoring Wi-Fi, any of its registered networks, whenever available. Only thing I can think of is trying a Force Restart and see if that clears things up: hold down Home and Sleep till the screen goes black and a white Apple logo pops up. Release and allow it to restart.
May be similar, when I got the i5 about 16 months ago, the local carrier was starting to roll out 4G service. The phone would regularly lose all carrier connection, voice and data. Haphazardly would reconnect when it felt like it afterwards. Initially did the Off/On dance to speed things up, but discovered that using Airplane Mode would do the same without the lengthier power cycle. After awhile, the carrier 'fessed they were having capacity issues and later the problem went away. So yours too may also be a carrier issue.

After upgrading to mavericks my mac shut off and won't come back on

I upgraded to Mavericks and my 2013 macbook pro shut off and won't come back on. When I push the start button I can hear the chime and then my sleep light blinks really fast and then shuts off completely. All I get is a white screen with the loading circle just going around and around. I tried resetting the pram but that didn't work. Any ideas?

Reinstalling OS X 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.
Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
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 and press the Continue button. After Disk Utility loads select the Macintosh HD entry from the the left side list. Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If Disk Utility 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 Disk Utility and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X 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.
Alternatively, see:
Reinstall OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Choose the version you have installed now:
OS X Yosemite- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

My HP Photosmart will not print anything until I turn it off and then turn it back on.

I have a HP Photosmart Model C-309a Product Number CC335A
All of a sudden, my printer stopped working and refused to print anything sent to it unless I actually press the power button to turn the printer off. Then if I press the power button again to turn it on, it prints the document from the print spooler. I have no idea what caused this or how to fix it. You suggestions are very much appreciated.
Thank you.

markymarc99,
Lets start with checking out our software/drivers to eliminate them as a possibility. Download and run the print and scan doctor located here:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03275041&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
It can fix a lot on its own and if not give a better idea of what is going on.
Best of Luck!

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
It looks like the logic board has failed, but first try a SMC reset > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
If it does not work, take the MacBook Pro to an Apple Store or reseller. You will get the MacBook repaired for free

Cannot send mail only after switching on/of airplane signal

Hi, have my Clasic for two weeks now. I am not able to send out mail. It works only after I switch off and then on again the airplane mode ( looks like BB is looking for radio signal). Any idea how to solve this?.

Hi,
this sounds very odd.
Have you tried to check the mobile network settings (automatic provider search etc...)?
Can you test the BB with another SIM card e.g. from your family or frinds?

I have a Photosmart 6510e that will only print after I shut printer off and then restart..

After setting up my 6510e photosmart all computers are able to print ---laptop, netbook and my iPhone can eprint. However, my desktop PC will only print once the printer sleeps (white light is dim) after I completely shut off the printer and then restart it. I have updated drivers and software. The message comes up "Unable to Communicate with Printer."

I have the same problem - I bought the 6510 printer yesterday and it seemed to connect wirelessly to my PC and shows as the default printer ok but when I try to print I get the message 'unable to communicate wirh printer'. I troubleshoot and am advised to switch on printer (it is already on) but when I switch it off and then on again the printing starts Ok. Very annoying and not what I had hoped for.....

My IMac 21.5 mid 2010's HD is going bad on it, after upgrading to mavericks it slowed way down and after it shut off and now won't come back on, would Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM001 2TB Serial ATA Hard Drive - 7200RPM, 64MB, SATA 6Gb/s worked?

My IMac 21.5 mid 2010's HD is going bad on it, after upgrading to mavericks it slowed way down and after it shut off and now won't come back on, I call apple support and they told me to bring it in but the nearest store is about two hours away. They said I need it to erase my hard drive but I have too many family pics on it.
would Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM001 2TB Serial ATA Hard Drive - 7200RPM, 64MB, SATA 6Gb/s worked on it? I could replace the internal and get an enclosure for the original until I get the pics out of it?
Please advise, it's like five years of family pics I don't wanna loose them and I am worried.
Thanks

A Brody,
I really apprecate your very quick respond, Its too late to back up as of now, my hard drive wont load at all so I cannot follow your instruction to back it up. Learn a hard lesson but I will from now on following your link.
Also my hard drive it is not available to do the free exchange program.
I read the OWC instruction on how to replace the drive I was just wondering if the 2TB would work on it instead of the 1 TB they offer, I specifically asked for the Seage Barracuda because I had great experiences with it on PCs.
Again, Thank you

I lost the ability to use wifi after the 8.02 update. Is there a way to fix this? I've already tried resetting network. Turned the phone off and on. Nothing is working and now I have to run on just data.

csdwarf,
So sorry to hear about the trouble with Wi-Fi! Let's get that working the way it should. Could you provide us some more details regarding where this breakdown occurs? Are you having trouble with turning Wi-Fi on or connecting to your Wi-Fi? Are other devices connecting to your Wi-Fi without issue?

My ipod touch 4th generation isnt charging with my cable. When i use my dad´s cable, it charges. But, however, after it´s fully charged (which takes strangely only a minute), i use it for five seconds and then it goes off. What should i do?

- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable if available
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

After the last update every time my iphone4 reaches about 15% battery it shuts off and wont turn on until I plug it in. Why?

After the last update every time my iphone4 reaches about 15% battery it shuts off and wont turn on until I plug it in. Why? i cant seem to figure out what to do. Restoring a backup does nothing, neither does syncing it.

Hello 8uhbbhu8,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice. You may want to consider a restore, and setting up as a new device:
