Why do my send messages take ages to load in Mavericks?

I use Mac Mail with Mavericks on a Macbook Air (about 2 years old).
It was fine in Snow Leopard, if I sent a message, it was there on my machine and if I wanted to look at it, it instantly appeared.
NOW, if I look at a sent message, I get a "loading..." spinning bar.  Why is the message loading?  It was SENT FROM MY COMPUTER so surely it's still there?????
I'm on a really slow internet connection right now (in Manila on business) and this is just SO frustrating.  Can anyone help or is this just another new "feature" of Mavericks.  Wishing I'd never upgraded.

Cheers for that it's sorted the problem

  • Why is it that it takes ages to watch a movie bought on the Itunes store, compared to Netflix which is instant? I don't understand this?

    Why is it that it takes ages to watch a movie bought on the Itunes store, compared to Netflix which is instant? I don't understand this? I can watch a two and a half hour movie on netflix and it'll take maybe a minute to buffer but when I want to watch something I bought on itunes it always takes like six hours to watch a movie about an hour and a half?

    I am currently having the same problem. Did you ever get this resolved?
    Thanks.

    Hi evan191,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  This article has some steps you can try if your messages aren't sending as iMessages:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2755
    If you still can't send or receive iMessages
    Ensure that iMessage is turned on in Settings > Messages.
    To send and receive iMessages, your device must have a valid cellular or Wi-Fi data connection.

    iMessage registration validates your Apple ID for use with iMessage. If you are unable to activate iMessage, follow this article.
    If an iMessage cannot be sent, it will be resent using SMS or MMS, depending on the content. You can turn this behavior on or off in Settings > Messages > Send As SMS. Carrier messaging rates may apply.
    Verify that the Apple ID or phone number is listed in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.

  • TS3474 I play music but it takes ages to load and I only have 250MB of data for music

    When I use my iPod I have 3.3GB left memory on a 8GB iPod touch 4th generation and when I play my music it always takes ages to load. I have deleted loads of stuff and I only have 250MB of music but it still takes ages. Why does this happen?

    What do you mean by: "it always takes ages to load"?
    Withut more specific information all I can suggest is the standard fixes:
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • Since I've updated my iPad to iOS 6 it's running a lot slower especially when I scroll up and down and takes ages to load up on the App Store I know they got glitches but are they gonna be sorting this out as well ?

    Since I've updated my iPad to iOS 6 it's running a lot slower especially when I scroll up and down and takes ages to load up on the App Store I know they got glitches but are they gonna be sorting this out as well ?

    Hi!
    I am also having issues with the device since updating to IOs 6. The time between clicking an icon, i.e. a picture, and the load of that picture takes longer enough to notice it. It did not happen before the update.
    I am also having problems with some applications, specially the Facebook application. When I click on my picture in the right bar of the app, it promps a window that ask me for share my location, etc.. and get freeze there.
    Regarding reseting the device, already done. It did not helped.
    Also, SIRI is very nice, but sometimes it stop working and I have to re-start the device in order to being able to use SIRI again. When it happens, it looks like SIRI is sending the information, but does not do anything after.
    It is understandable that they require some time to get the new IOs version working properly, but I dont like to be a Beta tester.

  • Google, Facebook etc take ages to load on Safari (and Firefox)

    There have been a few threads on this issue...but none seem to have a solution that works for us.
    We have two laptops (MacBook (MB) and MacBook Pro (MBP)) using an airport wireless.   The MP has all of a sudden decided that google and facebook will not load up straight away like they have always done in the past...they take ages to load up (we are talking "go get a coffee..and read the newspaper" times).  Other websites just fire up as fast as ever.   All sites fire up super fast on the MBP.
    What we have tried:
    1. Rebooted the modem, wireless router and computers
    2. Reset Safari, deleted and reinstalled Firefox 4.0.1.  Wiped out all caches , cookies etc
    3. Restored entire computer from time tunnel from a month ago...when life was good!
    4.. Changed/added DNS numbers to airport (via airport utilities) and change the airport settings (using openDNS numbers).
    5. Flushed the DNS resolver caches...
    Still no good....
    What are we missing?   What can the MB have to cause the issue that the MPB does not?
    MB is on OSX 10.5.8
    MBP is on OSX 10.6.7
    Please help...my wife uses the MB and is angry that her beloved Facebook and Google are just not working

    Ok.. from the Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Extensions tab. If you have any installed, turn that off, quit then relaunch Safari, try Facebook.
    If it's not Extensions...  try troubleshooting Safari third party add ons.

  • When im playing any games it takes ages to load and then crashes it is very annoying

    Right excample facebook games when i play they take ages to load it also keeps saying i need to update flash player which ive done severl times a day and makes no difference then it will just bo of and say page could not be found please reload . Even when i try to open firefox 4 its very slow and then might open 2 or 3 pages at a time

    If it's taking several hours then that is likely due to your internet connection. You can verify at speedtest.net
    6mbps required for instant 720P
    8mbps for 1080P
    You can switch to SD in the settings (which only requires 3mbps)
    You can also check istumbler or netstumbler for interference
    Make sure you are on your ISPs DNS
    The reloading is normal. There is no accessible storage on ATV. The small flash is used for caching streamed content, if you access other things or turn the device off it will be flushed.

  • AI CC and CC 2014 Freeze at startup or it takes ages to load

    Since the last update (which I of course applied as a modest designer) AI CC takes ages to load or doesn't load at all after almost 6 minutes of showing "Initializing...." screen. I have a DELL Laptop with Core i7 processor and 8 Gigs of RAM plus I run Windows 7 from a SSD disk. Prior to this fantastic update Illustrator ran fine. Is there something I can do or to revert back to previous, not-that-advanced version?
    Any help will be appreciated.

  • Web pages in take ages to load in firefox in ubuntu lucid

    i have both ubuntu and win xp
    in xp firefox runs fine but in ubuntu(lucid) although i ave a good broadband speed of abt 1Mbps and the usual download speed goes to abt 200 to 250 Kbps the web pages take ages to load about 2 min for yahoo home page to load i have updated with the update manager
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    Try a clean install of Firefox on your Linux machine.
    # Close Firefox completely. (File->Exit on Windows/Linux, Firefox->Quit on Mac)
    # Rename the Firefox installation folder or move it elsewhere.
    *Linux: The install location varies based on distribution and installation method. Linux distributions usually don't put Firefox in its own folder, so this method can't be used.
    3. [www.getfirefox.com Download Firefox] again and install it
    [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Installing+Firefox+on+Linux Installing Firefox in Linux]
    If this fixes the problem, you can optionally check the old install folder for global extensions, components, or corrupt/locked files.

    Check your internet speed first and what your ISP is suppose to provide.

  • Why cant i send messages through imessage or FaceTime it always tells me that there was an error message and it failed

    so for a while my macbook air hasnt allowed me to facetime or send messages.. it tells me that the server encountered an error processing registration please try again later.. what could be wrong

    This could be a complicated problem to solve, as there are many possible causes for it. Test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Before proceeding, test on another network, if possible. That could be a public Wi-Fi hotspot, if your computer is portable, or a cellular network if you have a mobile device that can share its Internet connection. If you find that iMessage works on the other network, the problem is in your network or at your ISP, not in your computer.
    Step 1
    Check the status of the service. If the service is down, wait tor it to come back up. There may be a localized outage, even if the status indicator is green.
    Step 2
    Sign out of iMessage on all your Apple devices. Log out and log back in. Try again to sign in.
    Step 3
    Restart your router and your broadband device, if they're separate. You may have to skip this step if you don't control those devices.
    Step 4
    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ About This Mac
    Below the "OS X" legend in the window that opens, the OS version appears. Click the version line twice to display the serial number. If the number is missing or invalid according to this web form, take the machine to an Apple Store or other authorized service center to have the problem corrected.
    Step 5
    Take the steps suggested in this support article. If you don't understand some of the steps or can't carry them out, ask for guidance.
    Step 6
    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Network
    If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the Proxies tab. If the box marked SOCKS Proxy is checked, uncheck it. You don’t need to change any other settings in the window. Click OK and then Apply. Test.
    The result may be that you can't connect to the Internet at all. Revert the change if that happens, or if iMessage still doesn't work. Remember that you must Apply any changes you make in the preference pane before they take effect.
    Step 7
    Select from the menu bar
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Storage
    and click
    Block all sites from storing information on this computer
    Close the preference pane.
    Step 8
    Make sure you know the ID and password you use with iMessage. Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Use the search box in the toolbar of the Keychain Access window to find and delete all items with "iMessage" or "com.apple.idms" in the name. Log out and log back in.
    Step 9
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    If iMessage worked in the guest account, stop here and post your results.
    Step 10
    Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you start up, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. After testing, restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and test again.
    If iMessage worked in safe mode, but still doesn't work when you restart in "normal" mode, stop here and post your results.
    Step 11
    Reset the NVRAM.
    Step 12
    Reinstall OS X.
    Step 13
    If none of the above steps resolves the issue, make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or contact Apple Support.

  • Why can't send message to friends with imessage?

    I tried to send messages to my friends with my touch, but after i typed in my friend's Apple ID (email address), it said this user has not registered. I have tried several other friends, but it did not work either. However, friend succeeeded in sending me a message. What is the problem? What is wrong?

    Hello,
    if you didnt find a solution yet, i'd like to ask if you enabled iMessage on your device? to enable it, you must first disable it, then enable again, just once, then you can use it, you friend should also do it...
    i had this problem at first too, then searched on the web, and saw that we had to do this first...
