VERY SLOW WIFI,NOT A PROBLEM ON MY OTHER MACHINES
THIS MACHINE IS VERY SLOW TO BOOT UP AND IT IS VERY SLOW WHEN I GET ON THE INTERNET.i DO NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH MY OTHER MACHINES,SO I DONT FEEL THE WIFI SERVICE IS THE PROBLEM.
A good place to start would be running tests on the hardware. Immediately after powering on tap the Esc key. From the menu tap F2 System Diagnostics
******Clicking the Thumbs-Up button is a way to say -Thanks!.******

My Macbook Pro purchased Dec 2011 has suddenly become very slow after not using for 2 weeks (close to frozen). What is the problem and how to solve it?
Need Help Ye,
boot your MacBook Pro into Recovery mode by holding down a Command key and the R key as it starts up. Once the Mac OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Is it still very slow? -
why are most of the apps (anything that has to search) on my iphone4 and ipad (1) running very slow (or not at all) since iOS5 update...esp google. Search seems to go quickly, but then when I try to open a link..nothing. I have turned off icloud.
I am having the same problem. Did turning off iCloud work? Did you just turn everything off or did you actually delete the account off your iPod?

Lion is very slow. The big problem now is when I need to make a copy of a file in an external HD. A file about 7 Gigas can take 4 hours!!!
Using Aperture I try to save a library in an external HD (another) with function "export project as a library" an takes hours for something around 1 giga.
Since I have Lion I can not use Time Machine. I have a Western Digital 2 Teras in raid 1. 1 tera for copy and 1 tera as an image. It's been impossible. I had to format the HD and when I try to start using Time machine my 600 gigas of data becomes in 7 days!!. 7 days !! for a backup. An usually after several hours (sometimes 20hrs, sometimes 1 day and a half) the process stoped abrudtly... and that's it. star again.
How can I check or perform a exploration to see what is happening?
thanks in advance
RyJIs a Western Digital Studio Edition II 2T (in RAID 1 mirror). The HD has 2 drives 1T each an put one mirroring the second one.
HD is connected to Mac through Firewire 800. -

My MacBook (10.5.8) is very slow and has significant problems loading will Snow Leopard (10.6.3) help or make my computer slower?
Also why does my Macbook make so much noise (The noise concerns me because it is so loud it sounds like the laptop will break down or something at any point)?It depends on your Macbook model how to open the bottom case.
Anyway you need to open up the buttom case or keyboard panel to access the CPU fan like following.

If you think you can't do that by yourself, you'd better bring it to Apple Store Genius Bar or Authorized Servce Shop to tell them about the problem. -

My photoshop cs6 seems to be running very slow lately--not sure why?
Have you tried resetting your PRAM?
Shut the Mac down.
Holding the Cmd+Opt+P+R keys, press the power button.
Listen for the "startup chime" to sound three times and release the keys.
It should run better after it finishes booting up. -

welcome to the forum why don't you start your own subject and post the adsl stats from your router and also run btspeedtester and post the results and someone may be able to offer assistance

when I go to open a page, it is very slow opening, or may not open at all........circle just goes around.....this is true for any site......mail, sites I have visited many times.......never had a problem until I upgraded to firefox4.......do I need to change firewall settings? If I do, how?
Just updated adobe, it crashes more than not......First I already have my view set to show everything so that is not the problem.
But I just tried opening "Computer" from the start button then type in profiles.ini in the address bar and hit enter. The profile manager opened with my profile listed. I selected it and hit start firefox and it opened as it should.
I closed it again and tried to open it from the shortcut in my task bar and I got the Sorry window.
But then I tried to open it from the short cut you get when you press the start button and program list and it work!
I went back to my desk top and tried the short cut on the desk top and it worked.
So I deleted the short cut on the task bar and created a new one and it worked.
I rebooted the computer and tried again and the task bar shortcut works and has the right profile.
So it seems that the problem is that the short cut was corrupted and was causing the error that caused the program to fail to open.
I had no idea a shortcut could do that. In the past I have had short cut stop working but never do what this one did.
I still have no idea where the profiles.ini is. -

App store loading VERY slow or not at all
Hello.. I hope someone here can help me. Since i upgraded to ios 4 i have been having problems with the app store. It either takes 5 to 15 mins to load then another 5 to 15 mins to update or download an app or it doesn't load at all and kicks me back out to the main screen. seems to be only happening with app store. I have updated to the newest ios, done the soft reset, restored it in iTunes, changed my dns server and just about everything else i can think of as well as everything i have found on the internet. Any1 else having this problem or heard of it ? Or any1 know how i can fix it.
Thanks in advance for your help.I was using iOS 4.1 on my iP4 since last Oct., apart from the sporatic wifi connectivity issue, all was well. The wifi issue kept persisting and nothing I did fixed it (did all the standard troubleshooting...again). Apple Care said I had to update to (at the time) 4.3.3 before they could help me. So I did, didn't help any, but I also noticed how certain things I did was lagging. ie. flipping through the screens, launching and quitting of apps, and yes, accessing the App Store. Everything was taking about 3-4 second longer. . Apple Genius noticed the connection issue as well as the lags, so gave me a new iPhone 4 with 4.3.3. Lags are still there, and App Store is very slow.
As the OP mentioned, it would take forever to just load up pages, when you go to update your apps, you hit Update All, it looks like your phone just froze on you. You can't do anything but hit the home key and go out of the App, and try again, but you still run into the same issue. But if you leave it for about 30-40 sec, it will eventually continue. Or boot you out of the App Store and you have to start all over again. Been like this since June, everytime I go to the App Store. Could be first thing in the morning to 3am, makes no difference what time you go on, it always lags. Does it both on wifi and 3G. Note though, accessing the internet on the iPhone isn't laggy. I would have thought about updating to 4.3.5, but heard that didn't resolve anything. And since iOS 5 is around the corner as with the iPhone 5, I'm just grinning and bearing. As what a lot of iPhone users have been doing as of late. I really do hope that the transition to iOS 5 goes much, much smoother than it did for iOS 4. -
Navigation very slow and not able to enter in memory a sequence issue
Hello,
we have a big problem with oracle forms performance since we deployed our
application to the web. all our customers are not confortable with this new
environment because the sytem are very slow and working it's very difficult.
our application is very slow in point of when the user use very quickly the key
functions it doens't work.
I explain :
for example, we have a button &Verifier (alt+v : acces key to this button) and
when clicking to button we have a dialox box that contains 2 buttons:
Oui(alt+O:access key) and Non(alt+N:access key) and if we click Oui(alt+O) it
popup as an information box and we must click Ok(alt+O: access key).
then if we click quickly alt+v after alt+o after alt+o it doens't work and it
wait to click againt alt+o.(like the system doesn't follow or has not yet enter all the sequence in the memory)
before in client/server it work's fine.
it's like our application in the web it's not able to entered in memory a
serial of access key.
please can you help me the problem is always occuring in the production
environment.
our environment:
- oracle jiniator :1.3.1.22
OAS 10G (9041)
DATABASE 9206
- the complete version of forms : 9.0.4.0.19
- we have 23 USERS.
any help are welcome, the problem are urgent.
thank you.Hi
Lets analyse and hope to narrow down your issue
We have used the Pick and Pack Manager to release goods from Sales Order through to Invoice. The functionality offered is good,
> Slow performance could be triggered by multile issue , so lets wait
> Do you know PICKand PACK manager is only for status ,but it actually doesn't affect inventory level .
but in practise the system is so slow it is taking 2 to 3 times longer than copying to a Sales Invoice.
> You need to do delivery first and transfer the delivery into invoice .
Is there any way of cutting out part of the process to speed things up? What we really need is to be able to create an invoice(s) straight from the Pick and Pack manager.
>> It basically depends upon your business process . but by software , You can bypass Pick and PACK Manager process. You can transfer your sales order into A/R invoice and while posting A/R invoice , inventory will be reduced .
Hope this help to narrow down your issue
thank you

Hi there, I have been trying to burn a movie I created in iDVD. When in the "creating your DVD" it is VERY slow saying it will take over 6 hours to burn the movie. I have never had this problem before. It also won't let me minimize the screen, I just get the beeping noise that something is wrong, but no pop up window telling me what to do. Does that make sense? Also the black & orange burn wheel is spinning VERY slowly and will often just stop. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!
Hi
When iDVD goes slow to ridiculously slow - it usually depends on - low free space on Start-up hard disk
• I set for a minimum of 25Gb free space
• 10Gb might work but slow
• 5Gb - slow and un-stable - DVD usually doesn't play
• <1Gb - iDVD might not even start and even so Mac OS runs into problems.
Else
Not knowing the origin to Your problem - General approach when in trouble is as follows.
• Delete iDVD pref file - *or rather start a new user/account* - log into this and re-try
iDVD pref file resides.
Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences
and is named.
*com.apple.iDVD.plist*
While iDVD is NOT RUNNING - move this file out to desk-top.
Now restart iDVD.
• Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk if it is less than 10Gb should rather have 25Gb
• Hard disk is untidy. Repair Permissions, Repair Hard disk (Apple’s Disk Utilities application)
• Program miss-match. iDVD 5.0.2, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK - DON’T work under Leopard
• Program miss-match. iDVD 6.0.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
• Program miss-match. iDVD’08 v. 7.0.1, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK will work under Leopard)
• Program miss-match. iDVD’09 v. 7.0.4, Mac OS X.5.8 AND QuickTime 7.6.4 - is OK (does work under Leopard)
• iDVD (08) v7 Locate theme folder. Move out iDVD1, iDVD 2 and eventually iDVD4 folders to desktop - re-try
Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/iDVD/Themes/ zzzzzzzzzz
or
Macintosh HD/Users/Your log-in//Library/Application Support/iDVD/Installed Themes/ zzzzzzzzzz
• Try a Cleaning CD/DVD that cleans the laser lens on the DVD burner/player
iDVD 6.0.4 and iDVD 7.0.1 are compatible with Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard
Last resort. from Craig. Solved the problem!! Finally!!
I deleted every iDVD application and folder from my boot drive,
emptied the trash and then installed iDVD 08 using the customize option
and I am up and running.
If You do a re-install be sure to get rid of all iDVD old parts AND then EMPTY the Trash-basket !
iDVD updated ?
Apple Codec updated ?
Start a New Clean project - or delete project assets
No of Colors - must be set to millions
EdinSF writes that, The 10.6.3 update with an Open GL fix seems to have taken care of the problem.

Very slow wifi connection on my MBP
I'm having problems with my wifi connection on my MBP. My iPad, iPhone and iPod all work absolutely fine but for some reason I have a very slow connection on the MBP. If I connect it to the router with a wire it's fine so it's definitely the wifi.
The only other thing that's changed recently is our Internet package. But this hasn't effected any of my other devices and we actually upgraded our package so I think that's coincidental.
Is it a known problem with MBPs? Should I take it to the genius bar or is there a simple solution.
Thanks in advancethanks for the tip. unfortunately, removing the security from the router isn't an option as it isn't even my router (my roommate owns it and would never allow that to happen).
the thing that is perplexing is that it hasn't always been slow - this just started happening within the last two weeks. one could assume that if one computer experiences a slow internet connection, the other would as well if they are both going through the same router. secondly, the connection strength, despite it being slow, is at the maximum. finally, if i connect to any other network at school or coffee shop, the connection is fast. there's obviouly something specific to my MBP and the router that the computer doesn't like, which is causing the lag.
maybe my MBP doesn't like the channel that the router is set to. i'll look into getting it switched as it may be the root of the problem.
