What can I do about slow browser on new p7-1298c? It worked fine for awhile but now slows to a crawl

I have a new Pavillion p7-1298c with windows 7-64 bit. It has slowed to a crawl while browsing the internet it takes 5 to 10 minutes to load a single page. Any suggestions?

Have you tried this?
Boot into the Administrator account.
Right-click on Internet Explorer.
Click on Security tab.
See if you are able to provide FULL control to the Standard User account.
Next, boot into Standard User account and try to launch IE. Any change?
You may also want to check to make sure that Protected Mode is OFF.
You can check whether Protected Mode is enabled by using File>Properties.
You can change that state by using Internet Options Security Settings via IE Tools.

App (pinned) tabs and Tab Groups (Panorama) are stored as part of the session data [1] in the file sessionstore.js [2] in the Firefox profile folder [3].
Make sure that you do not use "Clear Recent History" to clear the "Browsing History" when Firefox is closed because that prevails and prevents Firefox from opening tabs from the previous session.

It is also possible to use:

If you use cleanup software like CCleaner then make sure that Session is unchecked in the settings for the Firefox application.

What can I do about an iMovie app I downloaded that has been "loading" for over 30mon now?

Hi all. I'm new to Apple and don't know what to do. I downloaded apples free iMovie app onto my iPhone 5c wig iOS 7.04. Even though that was over 30min ago now, the desktop icon for the app still says that it's "loading". What can I do to delete it? When I click on the loading icon it just pauses it. Thanks for any help out there in appleland!

See if you can download it as a previous purchase in iTunes on your computer (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519), then sync it to your phone.

Doublechecking before proceeding. Is iTunes endlessly saying "Accessing iTunes Store"? Or is something a bit different going on?

I am having the same slowness, irratic, unstable issues with Thunderbird that I had 9 months ago. T-bird worked fine last sunday but now is unstable,

Slow to download email, slow to respond or open email, slow or unable to delete email, "A script on this page may be busy....error message when trying to delete an email. I had similar problems before (9 mo ago) but they went away after dealing with McAfee. Thunderbird worked fine last sunday but when I tried to use it today I now have all these problems.

McAfee has been causing problems again this week, so the remedy remains the same:

What can be done about slowness?

There have been numerous posts about the overall slowness and bugginess of iPhoto 5. I'm looking for answers.
On my 1 ghz 512 ram 60 gb hd 12' iBook, I almost constantly have a beach ball in iPhoto. The library takes FOREVER to load and I only have around 2,000 photos. I can't imagine how absolutely tortrous this program would be with 10,000 photos. Sure Steve Jobs can have 25,000 running on his souped up G5, but what about the common citizen? (And I've heard G5 owners complain about iPhoto anyway).
To me, it is the most ineffective portion of iLife. It would be so cool if it could simply and efficiently carry out its many uses. Is there anything I can do to speed this application up?

Wow! That is big. I shouldn't think it was the Windows jpgs. All that's in that library.iphoto file are the file names, album names, roll names, keywords, etc. Give a look at yours with a text editor
Thanks Old Toad. I can't really see how it can be the dates on the Windows jpg either, but I'm really getting desperate for a solution to iPhoto 5. I've looked at the (many) Library.iPhoto files I've generated. The structure seems soemwhat different between different ones, but since they contain more than just readable text, I haven't spotted any critical differences between them.
Have you tried rebuilding the library?
I've rebuilt the library numerous times. Likewise I've rebuilt the Thumbnails.
If all else fails try creating a new library and import the photos from the old one.
I've converted the photos from working iPhoto 4 Libraries, several times. I've made brand new iPhoto 5 Libraries, and imported the photos from my separate backup of the original photos. Regardless of how I do it, my Library.iPhoto size rapidly goes to several hundred megabytes, despite the import photo method not having any roll, album, keywords or comments at all. The difference is only a few percent at most. That is why I am wondering about the nature of the photos themselves.
It is particularly annoying that Cartoon Life can grab the same thumbnails from the same iPhoto Library and open them pretty much instantly (does it as it loads, and uses whatever your most recently used library is).
I'm now trying to close the latest iteration of the Library. It took 7 minutes to close. Usual 95% of CPU mostly system, plus heavy disk action and large VM, and grabbing all physical memory.
I'm still trying to find another collection of photos from different cameras to use for a test library. Only have another gigabyte of photos on hand so far. Hmm, maybe I can find a DVD full of photos online somewhere.
One interesting result. I mentioned I was using a different test library of 1700 photos, and the 500MB of photos gave me a 5.2MB Library.iPhoto file. It turned out that when I opened Comic Life after using that, none of the thumbnails showed (although iPhoto was fine on all sizes). I rebuilt the Thumbnails, so Comic Life could see the thumbnails. However Library.iPhoto aactually fell in size to 3.2MB. I'm not sure what to make of that. I suspect iPhoto 5 is making some files for compatibility reasons with third party programs. Otherwise how could iPhoto show thumbnails that Cartoon Life couldn't find? Cartoon Life found the Titles of the photos.

What can I do about this message -"Toshiba DVD Player has stopped working"

Hi
My DVD Player used to work fine . . . and then I installed iTunes.
It then worked for a while, but only by using 'Run as Administrator'.
After a couple of weeks I started to get the message "Toshiba DVD Player has stopped working".
I have uninstalled iTunes - and uninstalled and then re-installed the DVD Player - but it still will not work!!
Any solutions please?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Ms Q_reeus

My solution to this is to remove Toshiba DVD player and install VLC player. You can get it for free.
It can read all video formats and you don't need some additional codecs.

What can I do about My iPhone 4 speakers that aren't working?

I bought my iPhone 4 in November of 2010 and the phone fried before my one year warranty was up. I took it to the apple store and after they found no solution they gave me a replacement. I am wondering did my year start over or not? My speakers aren't working I'm not sure if its in the warranty to fix broken speaker but, I'd like to try because I cannot play the wonderful songpop or talk on the phone. Please help

The Warranty duration is the Warranty of the Original iPhone. If that Warranty has now lapsed, then the replacement has a 90 day Warranty from when you received the replacement iPhone.

I just had my FireFox updated after a major crash with at least over 80 tabs in 2 windows total, which it worked fine before crashing, but now my bowser crashes at random clicks on avrious websites & small group reloads. What is wrong and can it be fix?

The tabs I had were at YouTube, DeviantART, and other websites that are picture sites, or just image heavy. I usually leave my browser open while my laptop is in hibernation mode, as to try to avoid closing them as I tend to build up tabs and it would be a pain to wait and load everything. This has cause some crashes in the past, but those were less frequent than what I am experiencing now after the latest update. My browser seems to act more frail after that big crash I had. I did tried to reload my windows in tab, while cutting off the wireless so it wouldn't be too big of rush of loadtime, but it still crashed and does it constantly now. I can barely watch a 10-minute video or any multi task without the browser just crashing at random loads or clicks. Also, I notice whenever I write comments on Youtube, the browser lags and sometimes freezes.
It works better after I restart my computer, but that' s only a temporary fix.

I can scroll sparatically. I downloaded the new version and it worked good for a week. It starts and stops.

I use firefox on facebook.. Scrolling is sparatic. When I try and click on something it doesn't work. The screen will go blurry for about 30 seconds then it will clear and I can scroll or click for a second then it will do it again.

i just fixed this on my machine running 10.6.8. the typical workaround is to add appropriate UUIDs, which get updated with each new os build, and break plugins (see here). Follow those instructions, but instead of adding the UUIDs they suggest for 10.6.7, add these (I found them on my machine running 10.6.8, and they work):
064442B6-53C0-4A97-B71B-2F111AE4195B
588FF7D1-4310-4175-9980-145B7E975C02
for fixing on os x version 10.6.7, this may help (though letterbox 0.24b9 should work already).
i emailed the author (aaron harnly, harnly.net) about this, but haven't heard back (a few days). to be sure, i am quite grateful, as i think we all are, for his excellent plugin, and this workaround is quite simple for dealing with updates.

Wifi working fine for iPad but none of my MacBooks can connect to wifi why?

My iPad connects to my wifi network just fine, but none of the three laptops in the house connect. One is a one-year-old MacBook Air, another is a Pro around seven years old, and one's even older than that running an older OS (Lion) so the age of the laptop doesn't seem to be a factor. The phones also connect the the wifi network, it's just the laptops. What happens is the wifi tries to find a network, then doesn't connect to any, although our network shows up in the drop-down menu of networks. But if you click on it an error message comes up that says a connection timeout occurred and offers to run diagnostics (It doesn't offer diagnostics on the oldest laptop). Turning wifi on and off, going into network preferences, restarting the computers and the router, none of it does anything. The same issue happened yesterday, identical in every way, but it worked after turning the wifi on and off. This time it's been severeal hours and it shows no signs of fixing itself.

Thanks for the reply - we actually managed to solve it by removing some extra devices from using Wifi, so it seems like It was an update to the firmware (as you thought) which limited the number of devices on wifi at once. Thank you though!

HT204291 Apple TV mirroring works fine for iPad but not for MacAir (with MtnLion). The MacAir can stream music and photos to the Apple TV but no mirroring??

IT will stream photos and music and photostream (screensaver), but no mirroring, not even the icon??

Is the MackBook Air mid 2011 or newer? Only mid 2011 or newer Macs support AirPlay Mirroring. Read here for system requirements > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404
Hope that helps.

I updated my OS to 10.10 Yosemite all apps worked fine for two days -now I can't open AI. help.

I get a window that says "The application “Adobe Illustrator CS5.1” is not open anymore."

I tried downloading the newer Itunes, it didn't change anything in my Ipod Touch that apple ID still won't work. When I first updated to the 10.6 I was using a very old version of Itunes and it changed a lot in my ipod which I think had something to do with it now messing up.

Firefox crashes about 5 seconds after start up. Has worked fine for months. No changes made to settings etc

*resolved*

If you are running Firefox 3.6.13, you really should update to Firefox 12, as the version you have is very insecure, unstable and out of date. I'm assuming since you marked as resolved you got your issue taken care of.
