Why are some websites very slow loading and others not

Some websites are very slow to load and others not. Doesn't seem to be any logic as to. The affected URL below is one that is very slow. I can understand if it is not an Aussie website. Having said that New York Stock Exchange website "http://www.nyse.com/about/listed/lcddata.html?ticker=DJI" loads quicker than the subject URL

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Hi, I set up my new iPhone S4 with iclouds. So the data of my old S3 should move to the S4. However, some applications could not be loaded on the S04. Now some apps are loaded and others not . How can I progress?

    Thanks. I can change the forwarding settings in Gmail to be either POP or IMAP. That is quite simple. I just looked at those settings on the Gmail server and, to my surprise, both are enabled. In order for outlook client on my computer to receive IMAP emails I have to change the email account settings in my current outlook from POP to IMAP. I don't need to be using the Exchange version of Outlook to receive IMAP. I guess I'll do a little research tomorrow on Exchange so i can figure out what, if anything, it might do for me.
    I glanced at the link you sent me and it looks like it might be very helpful - another project for tomorrow.
    BTW: I hit "This Solved my Question" by accident. I meant only to "like' your response so you would get some benefit from the help you've given me so far. I hope I haven't discouraged others from taking a shot at helping me. I suspect there is more than one way to approach this and, as you know, my problem isn't really solved until I have what I need all set up and running smoothly.

  • Why are some websites, such as the FAFSA (federal financial aid for students) website or the BNY Mellon website, denying access to users running Firefox versions newer than 3.6?

    Why are some websites that are important to many people, such as the FAFSA (federal financial aid for students) website or the Bank of New York Mellon website, not permitting access to computers running Firefox versions newer than 3.6 when Mozilla is claiming that 5.0 is more stable and secure?
    The following information was displayed in regards to this issue -

The majority of our users are using these modern browsers, so we can present content which is optimized for them. "

    That is a question for those websites to answer. Firefox 4.0 was released almost 4 months ago, IMO more than enough time for those 2 websites to verify that Firefox 4 & 5 are compliant with W3C standards.
    To be able to access that FAFSA website, my advice is to install the Portable Firefox 3.6.19 version to your hard drive. It won't affect your other Firefox installation. <br />

  • Why are some of my songs ghosted and some are not?

    Why are some of my songs ghosted and some are not?

    Hi smiilee,
    Have you tried resetting your phone (hold down the Home and Power buttons a the same time and continue to hold until the Silver Apple appears). Once the Home screen comes back up, see if your Music is OK.
    If it is not, then, have you sync'd your phone to an iTunes library on a computer? If so, then hook it up to the computer, uncheck the "Sync Music" option so that no music is sync'd and then sync the phone. This should delete everything on the phone. Then go back and re-check the "Sync Music" option, and select any other criteria you want on that screen, and then sync again. This should put back all of your music.
    Let me know if you have any questions,

  • Why are some channels offered on Select TV service not offered on Premium?

    We get the Premium TV Service (we're in Maryland).  The lower-priced Select service offers a number of channels that are not offered on Premium (but are offered on the higher priced plans).  We're particulary interested in the BBC chanels, but there are about 8 other channels that are offered on the lower-priced service, but not on Premium.  What is the justification for dropping channels when you pay for a higher priced service?

    and why are some shows on hd but not listed in sd (the default guide). why do some shows list 2-3 episodes one day and the next offer only one?this is across board, every channel that is watched in my household at some point in time has this problem.when wanting to watch a missed show on vod.

  • Why are some "caf" files colored green and some blue. I need to change the blue (audio) file to a green one so that I can print the sheet music.

    I've been trying for days to convert blue audio files (caf in garageband) to green files, so that I can print out the sheet music for that file. I've converted the "caf" file to mp3, wav, aiff, even midi - but nothing will load in garageband as a green file. I get them to load as blue audio files but not as green files. I know the difference between the blue and green files, but why do they both have "caf" extensions? I am trying to conver "piano ballad.caf" to something that will show up as a green caf in garageband. I can't believe there isn't someone who has been successful at doing this sort of thing.

    Thank you, that was helpful, it has given me some avenues to explore. I have not used a command prompt for about a decade!
    The command chflags hidden /volumes/HomeShare does not seem to have worked.
    When I use it, there is no error message but I cannot see anything additional in the other computer.
    When I use chflags hidden /volumes/HomeShare/rubbish I see an error message about the folder not existing (which it does not!) so the path is correct.
    When I use chflags hidden /volumes/HomeShare/MBP naming a folder that does exist and was created by this computer/user, it seems to have no effect either.
    Looking at one source of OS X command line commands (http://ss64.com/osx/) I see that 'setfile' might do the trick (setfile v /volumes/Homeshare/MBP) but that command returns 'command not found'. It is apparently part of 'developer tools' ... which I do not have access to (AFAIK).
    In both cases, would the commands work on existing files only, or would new files be visible, or even files copied into this space? Presumably, each person saving to this area would need to then give access via terminal (or a script). Am I right in this thinking? If so, how would I modify the properties of the drive so that they are the same as, for example, a memory stick?

  • After downloading OS X Yosemite some websites won't load and some will

    I recently installed Yosemite on my Macbook (mid 2010), The update went fine, except some issues with iPhoto but that is solved now, the main issue is since the update some websites on Safari and Google Chrome will not load anymore. Some will( e.g. Bing) but most won't anymore. I have looked at system preferences and my internet connection and everything works fine. It is not just Safari and Chrome also the Appstore can't seem to connect to the internet either but Skype can. I do not know how to fix this issue.
    I have another account on my laptop which works fine, this obviously also has Yosemite, internet works fine, App Store works fine etc. and it seems to me that the settings are the same.  But this is not an account i normally use and i would like to be able to use my normal one again.

    HI I am having the same problem.
    1. The Activity window on Safari doesn't show anything. Sometimes it shows a ?.
    2. Booted on Safe Mode and the same thing.
    3. Connected wired to the Time Capsule, Wired to the Modem and same problem but connected Wireless with Airport and it works.
    4. No software PeerGuardian or Firewall installed.
    5. Network utility was unable to Ping apple.com or me.com.
    6. Put the OpenDNS settings and I am still not able to go to Apple.com or me.com but I am able to ping with Network Utility and if I enter the IP of Apple.com it loads. However, Me.com doesn't.
    7. Tried creating another account and problem is the same.
    8. With any other computer the problem is not there.
    9. Direct connection with ethernet to a computer works fine for data transfer or any other DL works also fine without interruption.
    I have been using Airport up until now but now I am setting a Server and I need the Ethernet working fine.
    Thank you,

  • Why are some websites squished to one column on the left?

    All of a sudden some websites are all squished in one column on the left side of the iPad and are unreadable or unusable. This hasn't always been the case. I'm using safari. I've rebooted the iPad, I have the latest os system. Two examples are:
    Www.unifiedpatriots.com
    Www.vassarbushmills.com
    I have my own website and it's been fine.
    Www.conservative-outlooks.com
    And the larger websites are fine as well. I'm really stymied.

    Bad web design, or a proplem with the linked CSS files, would be my guess. Report it to the webmasters for those sites.
    At least on one of them, you can pinch out to properly see the site.

  • Why are videos on Youtube slow loading since ff4 update?

    ever since updating ff 4 videos on Youtube are slow loading. all plugins, codecs and computer are up to date. my other computers have older versions of ff and have no issues. what is going on?

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • Images from Photobucket very slow loading or do not load at all

    My website is graphic intensive. All the graphics are stored in Photobucket. If I used IE they instantly load and appear but if I use Mozilla Firefox there is a long delay in their appearance and sometimes they never show up. I contacted PB and they said to clear your cache, refresh, close your browser window, then flush your DNS (your computer system's cache) and reboot your entire system, including the modem and router. I did this but Firefox is still loading images very slowly and sometimes not at all

    You can try to check the loading times via Firefox > Web Developer > Web Console (click the Net button)
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Why are some movies only available in languages other than the original version?

    I have mentionned this before, and it keeps happening, and it is oh so annoying! Why in the world would you make a movie available in a translated version, but not in the original? This has happened to me several times now, and it is incredibly frustrating. At least when buying movies on Amazon, I always easily know what language it will be in! Films in French? Some are just in French, some are in French and others. Films in Dutch? Quite a few are originals with Dutch, why not do the same in French?

    Take it up with whomever or whatever company distributes those films in your country.  Those sorts of options are up to the distributors, not Apple.  Only the company or people who own or control the distribution rights to the intellectual property can say what is or is not put up in the iTunes Store.

  • Why are some of my contact photos address book not uploading to iCloud contact

    I have added some new contact photos to my address book in my powerbook but it absolutely refuses to upload to the icloud and hence my iphone and iPad.
    Can anyone help?

    Hi MoLovin,
    If you are having issues with your iPhone's photos not displaying in the correct order, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
