  • What sort of functionality can I expect from Time Capsule in a Windows 7 environment?

    I'm looking to use time capsule as a backup for all of our families photos and such. What kind of functionality can I expect from Windows 7 and Time Capsule.

    You can use it as a network drive. You can also use it for automatic back-up purposes.

  • Update download speed requirements for ipad 2

    Does anyone know what the update download speed requirements for the 4.3.3 update version is?  My connection keeps timing out and my internet company says everything is within expected range on their end.
    Thanks.

    Temporarily disable your Anti-Virus and Firewall software.
    Download the update.
    Re-enable the AV and Firewall software.

  • How to find out download speed

    I've just upgraded my internet access and am curious as to what my current download speed is. There doesn't seem to be an easy way to find this out. Can anyone help? Is there something in the OS that would indicate this information? Is there a widget or freeware utility that would tell me? A quick search at Apple Downloads turned up nothing.
    Thanks in advance.

    For testing your maximum, try...
    http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest
    http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/
    To observe it in real time, use Activity Monitor>Network Tab.
    Can't remember if this is the Widget or not, not on Tiger at the moment...

    That is a statement. Do you have a question?
    If you want to know what your internet download speed is on the iPad - download SpeedTest.net. It will vary depending on where you are connecting the the internet.

  • I have an ipad 2 and when connected to my wifi at home it will not download and play you tube videos quickly.  Do I need to upgrade my connenction speed?  What is the optimal speed?

    I have an ipad2.  When connected to my wifi at home it will not download you tube videos for easy viewing.  Do I need to upgrade my connection speed?  Would 3 Mbps be enought or do I need to go to 6 Mbps.  I mainly use my ipad to view emails, browse the internet and watch you tube videos.
    thanks - Michelle

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    There are a number of factors in the 'speed' equation. Any or all of them can affect the 'observed' speed of your connection.
    1. Are you in a neighborhood full of WiFi routers (and thus, lots of WiFi interference)? I can 'see' at least 22 other WiFi routers from my living room!
    2. What is the maximum connect speed and band and bandwidth available from your wireless router. Is it 802.11n or the older 802.11a/b/g? 300Mbits or 150Mbits? 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz or both? Does your router measure (QoS) Quality of Service and can it change 'channels' automatically?
    3. What is the observed strength of your wireless connection? Are you getting at least 80% signal when connected? Are there other people in your family also using significant bandwidth at the same time (Netflix, streaming video, streaming audio, game systems)
    4. What is the "advertised" speed of your current ISP connection?
    5. What is the measured throughput of your current setup.  Go to speedtest.net or use the free speedtest.net app available in the App Store.  Try several times, from different locations in your home, and at different times of day and night.
    I have AT&T DSL advertised at 3Mbit/sec down and 512Kbit/sec up. My Speedtest.net measured throughput is about 2.4 Mbit/sec downstream and upstream is about 0.4Mbit/sec. I'm using a Motorola Netopia 2210-2 DSL modem. I have no problem viewing YouTube videos and other mobile video content on the iPad 2.  I'm connected wirelessly to a D-Link DIR-655 Gigabit router rated at 150Mbps at 2.4Ghz (only) with 802.11 b/g/n enabled. The interior of my home is within a range of 30-50 feet from the router and no more than 1 wall.  It is a single level concrete slab foundation of about 1500 sq. ft. with cathedral ceilings. I have successfully streamed ESPN3.com on my MacBook at the same time my son was streaming another ESPN3.com game on his MacBook Pro. I've streamed YouTube videos while my son was watching a NetFlix movie on his Wii game system. He's also successfully used Skype for extended 'teleconferences.' None of my devices are connected to HDMI on a large screen TV. 95% of the time, I can do iChat video without any signal breakup to my son (who is at a college with a Gigabit (1000Mbit) wired connection!). 5% of the time the connection drops. We haven't tried FaceTime (designed for mobile connections to be much less bandwidth-intensive, from what I understand) simply because we both have iChat on our computers.
    So for me, a 3Mbit DSL connection is absolutely adequate, given all the other parameters mentioned. As the car manufacturers say, "Your mileage may vary."

    I'm on the East Coast, USA.  Here are my stats.  I think they're more like what you are looking for.
    1.  Do you have any internet security or firewall app on there???
    2.  Have you gone to your Network Preferences, and clicked on "Assist Me?"  It could be a setting is messed up.
    3.  How much RAM is in your MBP?
    4.  If you are near an Apple Store, I would take it in and have them troubleshoot it for you.

  • I need to update to the latest version of Snow Leapord-currently running v10.6. Because of where we live the slow download speed for such a large file has kept me from downloading the update. What can I do short of hooking up computer elsewhere?

    Do you ever visit a friend or realtive with a Mac who has faster internet? Maybe the local library has Macs on a fast line. If so, get a USB thumb drive and put this link on it from your computer:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    Then put this link on the drive:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1429
    When you are at some place that has a Mac with a decent download speed. insert the thumb drive in that Mac and click on the first link ("DL1399") and direct the download to your thumb drive. Now do the same this with the second link.
    The installer files will now be on the thumb drive and, when you get home, drag them from the thumb drive to your desktop. Install the Combo update first.

  • Poor Download speeds in the evening, What can be d...

    Hi All,
    This question has probably been answered a million times so my apologys if it has. I tried downloading something last night and my download speeds were absolutely **bleep**, something like 4.3kbs a second!!!!!!
    Now am I right in thinking that this is BT's stupid throttling occuring to me. In the day I get awesome speeds and have no issues at all.
    On Sky BB I never had any issues at anytime and got around 6.5mb download speeds and my sync speed was 7.5mb. I ran a speed test last night and was getting the speed quoted what I pay for!? Can someone help me with this!?
    Thanks
    Steve

    I take it your talking about P2P/torrents, heavily traffic managed by BT.

    You can type p2p or torrents into the search box to find plenty of posts on this.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Netflix recommend a minimum connection speed of 0.5 Mbps, however at that speed many of the other features of the Apple TV will be painfully slow.

  • What are the uploads and downloads speeds

    what are the upload and download speeds of the time capsule?

    what are the upload and download speeds of the time capsule?
    If you are asking about Internet download and upload speeds, this is limited by your service plan with your Internet provider.
    It might be something like 10 Mbps download and 2 Mpbs upload, for example. That's because on most home plans, the download speeds are typically much faster than the upload speeds....unless you opt for a business type connection at significantly higher cost.
    The Time Capsule is capable of much faster speeds than your service provider can ever deliver, so the bottleneck on your network will always be the Internet connection...not the Time Capsule.

  • What should my download and upgrade speed be for my macbook pro?

    You posted in the OS 9 forum instead of the MacBook Pro forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa  I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

  • What has happened to download speed for any video....tv, movies

    Since about 2 days ago, the download speed for purchased video has become ridiculous. A 30 minute tv show takes MORE than 30 minutes to download......it used to take about 3 minutes...or less. I rented TRON yesterday and it took over 3 hours to download......it used to take 10-15 minutes. This happens on both my 2 Macs and 1 Windows machines. My Internet connections report a solid 20MB down and 1.5 up.....on every machine and device I have. It is NOT a problem in my home system or machines. All other downloads are fine.
    Something is seriously wrong with Apple's iTunes websites. I am certain that there is nothing wrong locally......no machines have changed.....and they all experience this abysmally slow service.
    Netflix streams full HD fine on all machines, by the way. I wouldn't even begin to download an HD movie from iTunes until someone at Apple figures out why their service suddenly is not useable.

    My box has similar issues with Multiplex D (which Film 4 and 4 Music are on).  My TV is absolutely fine but my Vision box is less happy.  I have the channels listed but no picture.  I keep meaning to replace my aerial leads but haven't got round to it.  Strange thing though is that my aerial goes to my vision box which then goes to my TV so it makes no sense as I would expect the reception to be the same or worse on the TV as with the Vison box.
