Video streaming on my new iMac is very slow.

I am unable to watch any video streaming on my 2012 iMac as the image stops every few seconds. I am connected to the internet by wifi and use Safari. My system is Mountail Lion.

ABC iview. I am unable to watch recent episodes, and yet I was able to do so with my old Mac Mini (OS 10.4).

Video streaming on the new imac

I just bought a new iMac and cannot watch video on the CBC's website, what do i have to do?

Actually, I just solved it. I had tried the Flip4 Mac solution, and it did not work. The problem lay in the public versus personal library. There is no internet plugin folder in the personal library on an Imac. I don't know why. However, there are Internet plugin folders on my other 3 computers (non IMacs) in both the public and personal library folders. When ABC installs its plugin, it puts it in the personal library plugin folder on the non IMac computers. I simply copied one of those folders with the installed, working plugin from my G5, and put it in my IMac personal library folder, and it played!
Thank you for helping.

Mavericks on brand new iMac is very slow

I have a brand new iMac with the basic configuration and the latest version of Mavericks. I use iLife, iWork, Photoshop, Office, Dropbox and Mailplane as the main programs but it is very slow. I did not restore from a Time Machine backup and installed all programs and files separately but I often get the beachball and the computer is often very slow, it also takes a while to start up. Is there any way to see what is slowing everything down?
When I look at the activity monitor there are hundreds of processes but kernel_task always seems to be using 700mb+.
Any ideas would be hugely appreciated.

Hi, thanks for helping. Here are the results from your program.
In response to the other poster's question the beachball happens with iMOvie, iPhoto, Mailplane and photoshop.
Thanks..---

Brand new iMac running very slow!

I just purchased brand new iMac on January 2nd (the specifications are below). The computer seems to be running very slow just doing normal everyday tasks. I have barely even used the computer and the only installations I've done where the ones recommended from the app store. I saw I had an itunes update the other day and went to install, the computer sat there for 5 minutes before it did anything. After it installed the app store still had the badge icon #1 next to it as if it never installed. During the installation I was listening to pandora, I tried to turn down the music and it took about 45 seconds before it turned down. I finally tried to log out of my account and it took over 2 minutes to log out.
I haven't had the opportunity to mess with anymore since yesterday. I feel a brand new computer like this shouldn't be running this slow. Does anyone have any suggestions? I will probably be contacting Apple Support after I get off work and maybe even exchanging the computer for a new one.
21.5-inch: 2.7GHz
Specifications
2.7GHz quad-core Intel Core i5
Turbo Boost up to 3.2GHz
8GB (two 4GB) memory
1TB hard drive1
Intel Iris Pro Graphics

If you are referring to this icon for the App Store:
the red numeral 1 is to tell you there is an update available. It may even have started to download, and been paused.
As far as your Mac's performance goes the Apple Store is the place to take it. You have paid for a one year warranty, and of course there is the option to return it within 15 days. Good luck.

New iMac running very slow

Just bought my wife the new iMac (20" 2.4GHz). Connected her old G4 Mini in firewire mode. Transferred her applications and files. Everything is working but the computer is very slow. Much slower than my version 2 macbook. It surfs so slow and Safari has locked up several times. This is on her regular websites not something new. All her apps on the mini were the PowerPC variety and not universal binaries. Could this be an issue? I had Firefox that was optimized for the G4 processor on the mini. It worked on the iMac but was slow. I just installed the latest universal binary Firefox and it is faster but the hard drive is thrashing constantly. Now it only has 1 GB of RAM (I will upgrade) but still, I am only running 1 app... Was importing from a G4 a bad idea?
Karl

I ACTUALLY think so!
I have the same iMac you have and it's SUPER fast! and I also have just 1GB Ram... but I'll tell you what I did...
First, I went online and got *Universal drivers* for my *Scanner, Wacom pen tablet* etc... then I got the Universal versions of *CockTail, SuperDuper, HandBreak, Stuffit, Adium, Firefox*... time consuming I know but if they were AVAILABLE for Intel... it didn't seem to be a good idea to SAVE time... just an afternoon that maybe would have cost me a couple days trying to fix future compatibility issues...
After doing that, I installed ONLY three *PPC Apps*, the ones I really need: *Photoshop CS, Flash and Dreamweaver 8*... actually my website is all in Flash, I only use Dreamweaver as a FTP program to upload my files...
Both Flash and Photoshop will run under ROSETTA... even taking lots of RAM, they still run faster than in my old iMac G5 with 2GB Ram... *duo to the Intel processor*...
At least I know that ALL DRIVERS are the original Intel... the iMac is super fast.. I just moved from ATT&T (disgusting 300 KBPS) to ComCast reaching *5 MBPS* on both the *G4 mini* and the *2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo iMac*...
Such a great experience, the large clear screen... a fast machine and a great connection...
If I were you I'd spend a Sunday *re-installing Leopard* and looking for the *Intel version of some Apps*... you don't have to sit in front of the computer all day... you can load the installation DVD and open a beer and come back after a while and download Leopard updates (and open another beer...) cook and listen to a good music... do little by little one day!
If I have a major problem I always re-install the OS... I can't work on a sluggish machine! Better a day doing it than suffering for a LONNNNNNNNNG time!
Cheers!

New iMac is VERY SLOW on first time bootup

I just bought a new iMac this evening and am trying to get through the initial setup but this thing is TERRIBLY slow. I'm wondering if I purchased a bad one or something. When im going through the set up menue (selecting country and connecting to internet), i click continue and it sits there for 30 seconds before it actually registered that I clicked continue.
When i first plugged in the power cord and it started up...it sat at the white boot up screen (with apple logo and loading wheel) for 15 minutes before it finally started the setup process.
Is this normal or did I get a DOA computer?

Not normal, I have had a few iMacs and they have never done that. I imagine even with the standard option 5400rpm drive in the new 21.5" iMacs it should still boot faster. Take it back, its new get another one.

New OIF installation - Very slow response from OHS

Hi,
I've installed two instances of OIF 10.1.4.0.1 in order to create a test configuration to test XASP Attribute Sharing (i.e., we are not doing any other profiles).
Both OIF instances are using a separate instance of Sun Directory Server as its User Data Store, and both are using in-memory for Transient Data Store and have no Federation Data Store. Both OIF instances were installed similarly, using the "BASIC" installation choices, and are running on separate Redhat Linux servers.
The problem that we're seeing is very slow (10+ seconds to 30+ seconds) responses, even when we try to access a static HTML test page that we've placed in the OHS htdocs directory.
We've eliminated any networking problems as possibilities by a couple of tests that we've done, including shutting down the OHS and running a small, different test web server listening on port 7777. When we do that, response time for requests from that web server is almost instantaneous.
We are also seeing the same slow response when we try to access the test HTML page from the same server itself.
We have an SR open with Oracle, but so far, we've not been able to identify what the problem might be, so I'm hoping that perhaps someone else may have encountered this problem and have a resolution.
It is really puzzling because, as I said, this is a pretty vanilla default OIF installation, and it is doubly puzzling because even getting a tiny static HTML page is taking 10+ seconds. Also, I had installed OIF 10.1.4.0.1 on a Windows machine previously, and I don't see this problem on that earlier installation.
If anyone here has any insight into this problem, please let me know.
Thanks,
Jim

Hi,
I think I was able to temporarily eliminate this slow response problem. I think that the slow response problem is related to another problem that I posted about in the "Application Server - General" forum (see below, and Port 7200 conflict?
Jim
======= POSTED to Application Server - General forum ============
I think that I was able to temporarily work around this problem, plus another problem that I think is related (see: New OIF installation - Very slow response from OHS
What I did was to just comment out the "include" line for "dms.conf" in the Apache httpd.conf.
Doing that got rid of the "Address already in use" errors I was seeing in Apache error_log and also eliminated the slow response I was seeing from Apache/OHS (see that other post in "Identity Management" forum), BUT I am getting new errors about Apache not being able to find "htdocs/dms/Spy0".
I have the impression that dms is some kind of process monitoring system that Oracle has in 10gAS infrastructure? So, I have some questions:
1) What's the effect of dms not working?
2) Is it possible to just disable dms?
I hope that Oracle support can come up with a "real" fix for both problems, but in the meantime, as long as what I did doesn't break anything else besides dms, we can at least test the OIF stuff.

Whats the right Digital Camera to show video Clips on my new iMac OS X Lion

Hi, Can anybody tell me what Type or Model of Digital Camera (with Video Clip Facility) to purchase succesfully down loading on to my brand new iMac OS X Lion?? I'm new to Apple iMac, found out that my 2 year old Samsung camera when downloading Photos and video clips, only shows the photos but not the video clips in my iPhoto folder. the clips are just shown in a black blank square!! Please HELP...Thank You

Christa,
Have you tried using iMovie for your video clips? If you aren't familiar with iMovie here is a link to the iMovie tutorials. I would think your current camera should be just fine.

Streaming videos from iPhone 4s via AirPlay is very slow

. I took a few videos with my iPhone 4S when I was on vacation. When I try to stream them from my iPhone to my Apple TV, it buffers extremely slowly. However, when I stream videos from my MacBook Pro to my Apple TV, it buffers very quickly and plays very quickly. Based on that, I'm assuming that there's nothing wrong with my wireless network. So my question is, what could be wrong with my iPhone. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Ok so I've been doing more testing. It's all videos on the iTunes store. Anytime I try to download a podcast or stream it or anything it's super slow. To download an episode of Diggnation it tells me over 2 hours to download but the time keeps climbing and I just stop the transfer.
Some people said it's an Open DNS thing? Maybe it is but it's not computer specific and I couldn't find a way to change the DNS settings in my Airport, only on each computer. I tried deleting PLists and restoring my Apple TV and restoring my Airport and nothing is working.
I don't know if it an issue with me, my ISP or Apple. Anyone else experiencing this problem?

Which is faster at rendering and compressing hd video... the new iMacs or the 8 core Mac Pro

the new iMacs or the 8 core Mac Pro

the 5770 is listed as 2010 only as well. The "anomolies" are with HDCP copy protected content:
Mac Pro: Using ATI Radeon HD 5770 graphics card with Mac Pro released before 2010
This may be the same story.

Video streaming on my new iMac is very slow.
