Upload Speed Problems with Safari/Mail on iMac

Hi....Just moved to BT from Virgin where everything was all ok....running an iMac with latest Lion software and a Toshiba Laptop with Windows 7......everything is all ok except when I send an email from the iMac.....it's dreadfully slow.......RX is fine and fast.....both TX and RX are fine on the Toshiba. This upload problem is only there sending via Mail on Safari....uploading an MP3 say directly to MySpace is all ok......also if I access BT Yahoo Mail instead of using Mail/Safari then I can upload an attachment to Yahoo Mail no problem and my outgoing mail is instant and fast....so it seems that the BT Broadband Service doesn't like the TX side of my Safari Mail facility....I've tried rebuilding the Mail Account a few times and checked that all the settings are correct which they appear to be...any ideas out there please?....Cheers, Paul

  • Internet upload speed problems with 10.6.8?, internet upload speed problems with 10.6.8?

    Since upgrading to Snow Leopard in November 2013, internet connection speed has been slow.  Using ATT DSL at advertised speeds of 3.0 M download and 0.3 M upload.  Download is acceptable at 2.55 M average using Speedtest.net.  Upload is very slow at 0-0.1.  ATT has checked everthing and says its ok.  They gave me updated Netgear 7550 modem that didn't make a difference but is more modern that my original 2-Wire 1000.  They checked inside and outside lines.  They run a test of my modem and get 0.5 M upload, yet using my iMac and Speedtest.net, I get much less which is consistent with online experience.  Pages are slow to start download, and sending photos with email is very slow.  Could my iMac with 10.6.8 be the problem?

    OK, two things to try:
    Do you have Javascript activated (not Java)?
    Is your version of Flash Player up to date?
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.  Version 11.4.402.265 is for Snow Leopard onwards.
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

  • Problems with Safari Loading Sites and Photos

    For the past week (Feb. 2015) I've experience problems with Safari loading websites on my 2009 20" iMac desktop. Running version OSX Lion 10.7.3  4 GB.   Intel Duo Core 2.66 GHz
    Mac also will frequently not upload photos at websites like Yahoo News or Facebook.   It does this throughout the day.
    So, I downloaded Chrome, thinking it would be a better browser if Safari is not functioning.  Chrome is just slightly better, and when it won't load a website I get the following error message from Chrome: DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NO_INTERNET.
    I'm debating taking the Mac to the Apple store for diagnosis or repair today, but if anyone else is experiencing similar problems, could you please offer some solutions as to what is going on.
    Thank you.

    Non-responsive DNS server or invalid DNS configuration can cause long delay before webpages load - Apple Support
    Unless you have a good reason not to, you should update the OS to version 10.7.5.

  • Problems with Safari, Firefox and Flash player

    Ever since I got my new iMac that has Snow Leopard I've had problems with Safari and Firefox freezing or crashing. It appears that part of the problem is the Flash plugin because sometimes a screen pops up and says something like: the flash script is having problems. I've tried uninstalling & reinstalling Flash, Safari and Firefox but the problem is still there. My browser seems to hang up or freeze a lot no matter if I use Safari or Firefox.
    Any ideas?
    I just discovered the Chrome browser from Google this morning and so far its working very well. No freezes and it appears to handle Flash video without any problems.
    How can that be?
    Thanks

    Ah! The proverbial missing information. Why the regrets? Most people are having no issues migrating from previous computers; it's the preferred method. See Best Practices and Setup new Mac. You're a long way from starting over.

  • Problems with Safari and Firefox (HTTP?)

    Problems with Safari and Firefox (HTTP?)
    On a laptop G4, 10.5.8 and Safari 5.02 I experience the following:
    On the account of my oldest daughter everything works fine, i.e. wireless internet works and no problems with mail or safari.
    On the same laptop, on the account of my other daughter, the wireless is OK, she can mail etc. But safari nor firefox works. It says: can’t find server (whatever site) and in the activity window it looks if safari tries to open files (in the safari preferences-folder) in stead of http. Same applies to Firefox, so maybe it has more to do with HTTP in general?
    What goes wrong? What to do? I tried the following on the host terminal (tips from Apple)
    defaults write com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled -boolean false
    and
    defaults delete com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled
    but that did not help,
    Nanne

    I'm still wondering why it happens now at this moment in time...
    PC does seem to be a bit odd & inconsistent, the few times I've tested with it, at least so far as we content filtering goes; and if I remember rightly, you're not the first to report previously ok settings suddenly preventing some or all internet until pc is switched off altogether.
    It may work when re-enabled

  • Problems with Safari 3.1.2

    Suddenly Safari started to refuse access to any site where some security is involved. Something requiring a log-in type access to web mail etc. After hours working with provider(Comcast) and apple it appears the problem is Safari. I was told to get all updates and reinstall Safari. That is when I found that I could not install any updates from Apple. I get the following message --
    * The digital signature for this package is incorrect. The package may have been tampered with or corrupted since being signed by “Apple”.*
    Since I need the Security update before I can install Safari 3.2 -- I can do nothing.
    In addition my mail program (Apple v 2.1.3) no longer works. Any attempt to get mail gets the following message --
    ** There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account "DA" or try again. The server error encountered was: The connection to the server "mail.comcast.net" on port 0 timed out.**
    There is no problem with settings for account "DA".
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Doug

    * The digital signature for this package is incorrect. The package may have been tampered with or corrupted since being signed by “Apple”.*
    This would seem to indicate you were trying to install Safari for Leopard, which is signed by Apple, and because you're running Tiger which has no way of authenticating that signature, it won't work. Comcast likes to blame all their problems on Apple, when in fact it really has nothing to do with Apple and there's no need to install or reinstall anything at this point.
    Your problem is not with Safari; we need to find out what you're currently running and the specific problem and resolve that, instead. So what specific sites are you trying to access that suddenly don't work anymore, and what version of Safari are you currently running?
    Have you tried using Disk Utility to Repair Permissions to see if that will resolve the problem? If not, do that. Also, try creating a new User Account for testing purposes and see if you can connect to those sites with Safari in that account.
    In addition my mail program (Apple v 2.1.3) no longer works.
    Mail works fine; the problem is either with Comcast's servers, or the way you have your account configured, so we need details for both your Incoming and Outgoing settings, include the server names for both, port numbers Comcast told you to use, authentication method, and SSL status.

  • Problem with the "mail me" button

    Since I installed both Iweb 09 and Snow Leopard, there is a problem with the "mail me" buttons on my websites. Nothing happens when i click on it even if i see my web adress when my cursor is on the button.
    Do somebody had the same problem and do you know how to avoid it.
    Thanks a lot

    I checked your site and found that the mail me button was not overlapping or touching any other object and positioned entirely in the footer of the page. All looks good and it works for me. You might try moving the button, logo and counter to the bottom of the page content section, publish and see if that makes a difference for those computers that can't.
    Try the following on your Macbook, open Safari, clear the cache (CommandOptionE), load your site and try again. If that makes it work for your MB tell your friends to clear their caches and try again. Might be something as simple as that.

  • I've a problem with my mail app

    I have a problem with my mail app, after upgrading mavericks.
    My mail app was worked well, before I upgrade.
    Now, my mail app is working only with icloud account.
    I can use my gmail account with safari or other web browsers, but not in the mail app.
    That was happening both of my macbook pro, and macbook air, but not on my iPad and iPhone.
    I tried deleting account and re added it, but that doesn't solve the problem.
    what should i do..??

    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. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    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. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • Problem with Safari linking to outlook?

    This Mac runs snow leopard developed, the user had it set up so that whenever you open safari it would go directly to Outlook but now a problem with Safari not linking to Outlook anymore, there is no problem with safari and the net and firefox links directly to outlook when opened up, how can I fix the safari outlook situation please?

    Safari menu -> preferences -> General -> the first item lets you select the e-mail reader on some versions of Safari.  If it doesn't, look throughout the preferences.

  • Problems with Safari 6.0.1 on OS 10.7.5

    I'm having massive freezing problems with Safari 6.0.1 freezing up on me in the last 10 days or so. I'm running OS 10.7.5 on 27" iMac Intel circa mid 2011. Any help appreciated.

    Okay. At the beginning of this discussion I was on 6.0.1. However, I responded to an update since then and since I didn't realize 6.0.2 wasn't compatible with Lion I responded and updated.
    Now, with your message, a clean 6.0.1 installation sounds like a great idea. However, I've downloaded it from your link and when I install just from the install program, I still have an "About Safari" showing 6.0.2. I then tried setting up a separate Safari folder in the Applications folder and installed into that. I only got some Safari-associated folders and items there but no new Safari app icon... and the Safari 6.0.2 icon (which I hadn't gotten rid of since I don't want to lose my bookmarks, etc... want to transfer those once the 6.0.1 is there) is still there.
    All the hanging-up problems are still happening, btw... and probably even worse. Right now I'm using Camino, a good browser but Safari has features I'd like to get back to... got Firefox, too, and like it, but I've got it set up for other family members to use and Safari here for me.
    Any help on how to get 6.0.1 installed again without losing bookmarks greatly appreciated.

  • Problem with Apple Mail since OSX Mavericks

    Hello Folks,
    since i've updated my mid-2012 iMac to OSX Mavericks, i have a problem with Apple Mail: When i start the Apple Mail, the program says that it could not connect to the icloud mail server, and that i should enter my icloud passwort. When i do this, everything works fine. But that annoys me, because it worked without any problem under OSX Mountain Lion.
    Has anyone an idea what i can do to fix this?
    Regards,
    Alex

    In the iCloud pane of System Preferences, uncheck the box marked Mail and check it again.

  • Possible BUG? A problem with Safari on IPhone & IPad

    Hi all...
    I have a problem with safari on Iphone & Ipad, my animations are not working
    This is what the code does...
    Upon load an event fires and and the "ready" animation starts (its a box that gets bigger and smaller), but the animation will not work on IPhone & IPad when i have an SVG or PNG file anywhere within my composition..
    I know this sounds crazy so i have attached the sample code
    http://adobe.ly/1mw781A
    If you try deleting the "theProblem" (which is an SVG file) from the composition and then re-run it on Iphone & Ipad and you will see that it animates..
    This problem does NOT occur on any other browser
    With my limited knowledge i can only assume that it is something basic i have missed..
    Please if you could take a look i would be most gratefull!...
    many thanks
    Justin!

    I started thinking that maybe my home webserver was causing the issues..
    So i set a quick online one up and uploaded the testfile that you guys have access to here...
    LINK1: this is the edge composition WITH the svg file
    http://testsite1234.host22.com/test/events.html
    now the animation that originally worked in all browsers except safari refuses to work in any browser
    BUT if i re-load the page it works in chrome and firefox and IExplorer (is my problem something to do with my scripts?
    LINK2: this is the edge composition WITHOUT the svg file
    http://testsite1234.host22.com/test/events1.html
    as per usual this version works in all browsers because there is no svg file
    Please if anyone can help... now im completly lost...
    Im starting to think that it must be a server issue, are there any settings that i need to enable to make edge compositions run correctly...?
    many many thank!
