Very Weird Speed Issue

Hi All,
This is a strange one, so I'll try and keep it short and simple.
Any speedtest I do, including speedtester.bt.com comes back exceptionally slow. usually around 300-400Kps. However, when downloading from newsgroups, the speed is 4.5MBps. Very weird. This is on BT Infinity with a sync rate of approx 38000
Any ideas?
Paul

I am the author of the "BT_UK Problem" thread and have seen a great improvement in tests to the UK from the UK over the past day.
Below is the best test taken today:
London has improved too,but it and some other UK servers seem to be having probs with upload readings.
So from my seat it is looking better and is/was I quess partly due the outage [power cut] that happened in the Birmingham area a few days ago.
From the outstanding works list there is work taking place in the London area,so the tests to London might get better.

Very weird dhcp issue

We've started 're-vlanning' our main location here, breaking up depts
into their own vlans.
All seems ok so far, aside from a real doozy.
For the IT vlan, we have one address that will not talk to our web
content mgmt appliance. It's the 2nd address in our assignable pool,
and it doesn't matter if it's dhcp or statically assigned, that address
will not talk to that device.
That is the *only* device that cannot be reached from this particular
address in our dept vlan, every other one works fine.
Any ideas on this?

So.... the title of this thread should actually be 'Very weird non-DHCP
issue', since your own testing confirms this has nothing to do with DHCP?
If you do a LAN trace on this machine as well as your web content
management appliance do you see packets on either side? Both sides? If
not on both sides but you do on the source (workstation) side see
packets going out, then get LAN traces after each network device
(switch, router, firewall, etc.) to see when the packets disappear.
Feel free to post the LAN traces somewhere with descriptions of IPs,
ports, and what you should be seeing, if you want to post them somewhere
for review.
Good luck.

Weird speed issue!

Hi,
Has anyone else, since about 30 minutes ago, been getting very slow download speeds from websites? I can max out my connection from newsgroups (9.3mb/s) but no matter what site I try, & I truly mean any, I'm getting about 100k/s max download speed!
Am currently trying to download some drivers & software from amd's site, also guru3d and nvidia & all 3 are giving me the same very low d/l speed!. I've also tried a few other sites that have files to download and they all give me the same low speeds. Thought it might pc related but I tested another desktop, also 2 laptops and all show the same low http download speeds.
There appears to be nothing wrong with my ip profile, downloading from newsgroups shows that, just wondering if any others are experiencing very low speeds downloading from websites at the moment.

Tracerts show nothing out of the ordinary, is there anyone out there who could do me a favour & have a go at downloading some of the test files they have over at thinkbroadband & let me know what d/l speeds you obtain, I'm getting about 1.3mb/s which is lower than what I had on my old Be* connection!
Update : Using a download manager has helped alot, have gone from 100 odd k to 5+mb/s download from all the sites I've been testing, multiple threads for downloading certainly help when you have alot of bandwith to play with!

Very weird importing issue

I just got a new PC recently. When I go to rip a CD or convert a file to any format, if it's the last song of an album the same thing happens: the progress bar fills all the way and then it stops and ITunes freezes. All the other tracks will convert fine. I did not have this issue on my old PC and I bet that if I tried it again there, I wouldn't have this problem. Can anyone help me figure out what's going on and how to fix this if possible?
Message was edited by: [CARGO]

I should also mention that if I import multiple tracks I either get most of them or a few, and if I try to convert a track by itself the same thing happens.

Very Low Speed Issue!!

Hi,
I'm looking for some advice on what I should do next. BB has been very slow lately, like dial-up again, and a search of this forum put onto some tips.
So I've done the quiet line test - all well.
I've reset my Hub 1 and left it for 5 days.
The numbers that you see below have stayed stable since the reset.
I've conducted BT speed checker - it says all is well.
But it's still very slow and dropping out. I know what's wrong, but I don't know how to fix it!
Can anyone advise?

Very Weird Sleep Issues - Help Needed

Hey Everyone,
I've been having some really weird issues with my iMac G5 lately. It will randomly go into sleep mode. Sometimes it'll do it once every hour or so, other times it will do it every 30 seconds, there is no rhyme or reason to it. I've obviously checked all my settings and the iMac has recently been to the shop to fix something else, but this new problem has developed over the last few weeks. It never crashes or freezes, it will just go into sleep mode and when I press a button it will turn back on. Working with video, this becomes the slightest bit annoying while trying to edit and such. So any help would be greately appreciated. And just as a side note: the computer is all updated, I'm running 10.3.9, and I believe my iMac is first gen (I don't think its the power problem they speak of because mine was just in shop for that issue)
Thanks!

Johnny, a SMU reset usually solves a number of power issues including sleep issues. If you go to this link it will detail all power problems. In step # 10 it refers to the SMU reset button and this is what you want to reset. The main part of the link is for when your Imac won't turn on at all, good reading but the SMU reset will probably fix your problem. Let us know, Bob :~))

Very weird date issue.

I have a client that is using CFMX7 Enterprise and an Oracle database. One of the database fields we're pulling in is a date. If the date/time is 04/04/2010 02:xx (2am range), coldfusion is automatically adding an hour to it and making it 03:xx. I changed the time in the field to 1am and 3am and it worked fine with both those numbers and I also left the time at 2am and changed the date to 04/05/2010 and the time remained correct.
Is there some daylight savings time issue from CF7? Anybody have a work around, besides putting in a catch for this specific date and time?

With a version of ColdFusion as old as CF7 you have to be aware that the daylight saving rules in the United States changed since that version was released. If the JVM has not been updated to understand the new rules, then that version is going to be operating on the previous set of day light savings rules.

VERY weird startup issue...

I've never heard of this happening to anyone before and I'll try my best to describe it.
I have a g5 dual 1.8 running the latest 10.4.
The issue is that the computer starts up...goes to the load screen with the blue bar. It reaches the end, then stops. It doesnt continue to load the finder. But I can adjust my volume from the keyboard and move the mouse around and even get a system noise when I do optioncommandescape.
AND i tried connecting my old G4 (which im using now) to network to the g5 and I can log in and see all my files like nothings wrong at all.
I've had small issues for a while now, so I tried to run Norton on it. I booted off the Norton disk, ran disk doctor and it always cancels out at the same point. Attributes B-Tree is where it errors out and says Norton can't fix it, please try again. Say something about Node 2, Record 0, incorrect Key.
I tried starting safe mode...it ignores it and does the hanging load screen. I tried single user mode and running fsck. It goes through a list of hundreds of missing thread counts or something and then says disk verification failed. It never said anything about modifying or anything that the apple.com help page said.
So, anyone ever have this happen or know whats going on? Sorry for the long post but I tried to give all the details I could.
Thanks!
Kevin

Yeap, you have a bad/corrupt OS that renders your mac unable to boot up properly.
Either:
a) get Disk Warrior, boot with it and repair your Directory
Use this method first, it "always work", at least over 90% (approx) of all system errors, if this still doesn't work, then you'd have to
b) boot from the OS disc, first repair everything first, then reinstall your OS using Archieve and Install, it will install a new fresh Systems folder but preserve everything else, your Home folder, your applications etc.
Finally, stay away, no, throw away your Norton Utilities, it WON'T work with OS X
Cheers

Very weird connection issue

Ok. Got a new one.
This is Safari 3.1.1 PPC, running on a PowerBook G4, 10.4.11. The machine is definitely connected to the Internet. I receive email, and Firefox is working flawlessly.
But Safari can't open any webpage, I have trashed Safari itself and all files in the ~/Users/Library/Safari folder (keeping my bookmarks file on the desktop temporarily). I then reinstalled Safari by downloading a new copy from the Apple website, and installing from scratch.
Same problem with the new install.
Any ideas?

Heh. I got you all stumped??

Speed Issues

Greetings and Salutations,
I'm having speed issues with my Adobe AIR application. From what I've read on the web, AIR is supposed to be fast at drawing graphics. I am writing an application which has multiple screens. On one of the screens I have a tab (SuperNavigator) which has a canvas on it. That canvas has a series of other canvases (built with a repeater) that have graphics in them. I am having speed issues when I have more than 50 of these children canvases. I've tried running it without the graphics (code below is without the graphics) to see how it performs. When I have 954 of these canvases being drawn it takes about 2.5 minutes to draw. This is unacceptable and I'm wondering if this is something I've induced or if AIR was never meant to handle such a large amount of canvases (actually this isn't a large amount, in a real world environment there could be a lot more). I've included relevant clips from the code. There are a couple empty boxes that in the real application will hold graphics.
The class withing the Tab Navigator is a canvas.
In the action Script (the setter line takes 2.5 minutes to get past) (it's binding to the repeater that seems to be my problem).

The Canvas is a very heavy object that has lots of overhead. Even worse is the VBox object that is in there multiple times.
What exactally are you trying to accomplish? Just looking over the code, it seems that the same could be done directly with the Graphics API, at a much faster rate.
For each of the VBoxes and Canvases you have, the entire size of each child and parent need to be re-evalulated each time you add or change something. This is a HUGE overhead, and probably why the app is running so slow. You may need to convert this app to use simpler objects (UIComponent or something lower-level like that) to get any speed.
Are you using Flex Bulder? Take a look at the app while the Profiler is running to see what I'm talking about.

Very Slow Speed for OS X Updates

Hey Everyone
I have been attempting to download updates through the Mac App Store recently on my mid-2013 MacBook Air, currently running OS X 10.10.2.
It seems as though a download of 40 MB is going to take around 2 hours... very weird because my connection is extremely fast. For example, I can download about 4 GB in about half an hour.
Is anyone else experiencing OS X updates downloading very slow through the MAS. It seems as though it doesn't affect any app downloads though.

I'm facing same issue with same modem.. esp when I use wifi. However, if I connect to ether port its much better.. Please let me know if you found a solution..

A very weird echoey sound.

1. Product Name: HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC
2. Product Number: A7P68EA#ABV
3. OS: Windows 7
4. No error messages
5. No changes whatsoever.
6. Problem:
I just bought this laptop and when trying out music files, I noticed that the sound is very weird..like an echoey sort of sound. For example, for a certain song, I can only hear the background music for the most part and the words are very unclear like they're coming from a very deep place. I can't really explain it. I tried downloading like 10 songs and it's the same problem with all of them. I moved the songs to my phone and the sound was normal.
I can sense this effect for the videos as well, only in this case it's less obvious because there's no music.
I also tried different players; WMP, VLC..etc.
Thank you so much in advance for your help!

Hi,
Try a clean install of the audio driver as follows.
Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp55001-55500/sp55094.exe
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
When complete, restart the notebook and let Windows fully load. Open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation. When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices. Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if this has has any effect on the issue.

Audio pitch / playback speed issue, MacBook Pro 10.4.10

I experienced a very strange audio pitch and speed issue that affected a recording I was making in Ableton Live 6.0.3.
Setup is MacBook Pro 2.16GHz, Mackie Onyx Satellite FW interface for audio, recording straight to internal HD.
I made two multitrack recordings (3-4 tracks each) which played back fine initially within Live. I then rendered the audio to AIFF in order to burn data and audio CDs.
Testing the playback in iTunes, the audio was strangely pitched lower than what we originally recorded. Checking other tracks from my iTunes library, they were playing back FASTER or higher-pitched than normal, and so did audio streamed from MySpace that I was familiar with.
CDs burnt from these AIFFs exhibited the same "lower pitch" / slower playback.
Reopening the Live Set, they were now also playing back lower pitched than what we had heard just minutes beforehand during the recording / mixing.
After I let the computer sleep for a few hours, I came back and checked -- system and internet audio was now playing back at normal speed, but the Live Set was still lower-pitched - the individual WAV files in the set were all pitched lower.
The Live recording prefs were stock standard - set to record 24 bit WAV at 44.1Khz. Since the issue seemed to affect non-Live audio as well, I'm guessing it was something more at the CoreAudio level?
I managed to salvage the session by taking the exported AIFFs into Tracktion 3 and using the pitch change function in the Clip Properties pane. One track was 1.5x off, the other was 1.125x off.
I'm at a complete loss as to why this would happen. It's a first (and hopefully only) occurrence. Has anyone had this happen to them? Could this be some sort of intermittent hardware (clock) glitch? Something to do with 6.0.3 and OS 10.4.10?
I do need to take this MacBook Pro in for servicing - it experienced the "bulging battery" issue and has a partially dead keyboard (the keys near the upper right) - but even with those issues I've not had audio issues like this.

In any case, if my Mac had problems, I'd send it in for service....!!!
About your problem, I don't think that it depends on hardware.
I'd check Live configuration and the SR of the audio files: you know, Live has so many features to modify speed and a lot of other parameters that bacomes easy to forget something.
Try recording something with Garage Band so you will be sure if there is a real problem.

Very slow speeds suddenly

I have the 3mbps plan, and since about a week ago the download speed has dropped to around .25-.35 mbps consistantly. Upload seems normal. Very late at night around 2 AM the speed seems to bump back up, but only around .7 to 1 mbps. I've disabled wireless on my router and that does not make a difference. My router is the Westell 327w.
This is not the first time I've had speed issues, and it's starting to get tiresome. The last time there were horribly poor speeds for about a week and then the entire area had an outage for a day, then it came back up and everything was fine and speeds were back to normal. Obviously was an issue on Verizon's end. I suspect this is the same, but of course customer service doesn't want to entertain that possibility. I'm about on the end of my rope and ready to find a new ISP if this isn't resolved quickly.

It would be that big box. You can technically mess with the Coax, Ethernet and Telephone connections within the ONT, as those are considered customer servicable. What you should never, ever touch would be the Fiber line. Disconnecting that or damaging that can really cause some issues. Fiber is both a pain to clean and splice properly if something happens to the clean connection.
Your BBU should be located inside if the ONT is outdoors, as the BBUs are not weatherproofed like the ONTs are. You should be able to shut it down and power it up without heading outside. The only reason you'd need to go outside is to check on the ONT's status lights to see if it has power and if the network connection is there, which we're saving for other troubleshooting steps for other times.

Projects doing very weird things

This has really been driving me nuts.
I'm on Mac 10.8.5. Just recently updated to CC 2014 v8.
I've been working on several projects lately, and very weird things are happening every time I open a project. Usually when you save and exit a project, when you reopen it, it will open to the same sequence you were last working on, but for some reason every time I open it will load a random sequence I hadn't worked on in a long time. Sometimes when I open, the project will load slowly indexing and conforming and generating peak files. After it thinking for 5 minutes, I go to play my sequence that was fine yesterday and now some audio tracks that are still in the timeline no longer contain any audio. When I match frame, the audio clip appears in source, but has no waveform and will not play any audio. Some audio tracks do not have waveforms but DO play audio, and when I match frame on those, the clip comes up and plays audio but shows no waveform.
Restarted computer and now all the audio loads fine, but thumbnails for all video aren't showing.
The other day I had a similar situation with VIDEO. Clips were randomly "pending" or "offline" and I would 'link' them, but it would remain offline or pending. Eventually it fixed itself somehow.
I'm having a hell of a time here. This is really holding me back from my work. I'm not really sure how to troubleshoot this as it is different everytime.
I'm working from an external harddrive that is brand new, and shouldn't be having any permissions issues...
Any insight would be appreciated!

Some trouble shooting:
Open Premiere while holding down shift+alt until welcome screen then
Clear out Media Cache database and remove remaining files in that folder manually.
See if that will help.
