Why do pages load very slowly?

I have been facing issue lately in accessing web pages from my Macbook. When I use a Windows PC/Explorer on the same WiFi, pages load quicker. In some instances , the page does not load at all and the same page loads when refreshed
I have been using a Belkin router
Does anyone have any solution/suggestion to improve performance.

  • IBooks Author: in exported file, one page loads very slowly...

    iBooks Author: in exported file, one page loads very slowly and drags when scrolling through pages, almost stopping the scroll.  I have never seen this problem before with photo pages.  Normally they scroll just as smoothly as text pages.
    I have tried rebuilding the page with more compressed files to no avail.  The image files used on the page are not any bigger than others I have used previously without any problem.
    I have tried restarting my iBook.
    I am using a template that I have modified quite a bit.  The templates currently offered by Apple and third parties are not even close to what I am looking for in terms of layout, so I have to rip almost everything out of the page and start with a blank page, most of the time.  I tried modyfying the layouts to save time and then saved as a new template.  Apple really needs to add a module to create your own template at the beginning of a project.  Or they need to create one very open template, without much on the pages.

    I finally solved the problem by using an unmodified template. I would still like to know how my modifications to the other template caused the problem, but for now it remains a mystery.  Thanks for your ideas.
    Next I will try modifying the template without saving it as a template (merely saving it as a file) to see if I can get away with my modifications.  Also I will make fewer modifications.
    Slowly but surely I am learning this program by trial and error.  Each time I try a few formatting variations, output an iBooks file, and open it on my iPad.  I have probably done 20 of these tests, so far.  Once I work out every detail of the design and structure, I will build the final book.  I am lucky to have a beautiful PDF of the hardcover version, generously provided by my publisher.  This not only sets a high bar for me, but also allows me to use some of their design elements via screen capture.
    iBooks Author has great potential, but I along way to go to get there. One feature I would really like to see in the next update: the ability to add a hidden caption to a photo.  The reader would tap the image and the caption would appear. Tap again and it disappears.

  • Web pages loading very slowly.

    It doesn't matter if my Mac is connected with an ethernet cable or wireless, web pages are loading very slowly. I'm sure there's an easy fix for this but I'm clueless. Can anyone offer a suggestion? Thanks...

    Try clicking safari> reset safari.this should speed things up a bit. also click preferences, cookies, and clear some unwanted cookies.

  • Iweb 09 pages load very slowly - How can I fix this?

    Hi-
    Just published my website to ipage.com and every page is loading very slowly despite the fact that the backgrounds and graphics are very simple (Many of the pages are text only). I'm using the "Modern theme" Blank with a gradient fill, which is what seems to be causing the slowdown. I've tried it on two computers (macbook and macbook pro), two browsers (safari and firefox) and my iphone 4 - performance is equally poor on all three. Spoke to my Web Hosting technical support (I'm using Ipage) and he says my site is only using 17 mb, which should not cause any issues. My download speeds are also very fast so it's not my computers that are causing the issue (Between 20.5 and 23.2 mbps, ping=18ms). The site address is www.jeffreyjanger.com.
    Thanks,
    jeff

    Bonjour
    the slowness is explained by the big size of gradient fill image. Your background [image|http://www.jeffreyjanger.com/JeffreyJanger/Home_files/backgroundimage_11.png] is a PNG
    You've changed color opacity, that forces iWeb to create a PNG file.
    if you let opacity to 100%, iWeb will create a JPEG file
    In an iWeb published site, JPEG file size can be 25% smaller than PNG (and sometimes more...)

  • First Page Loads very slowly

    Hi
    I've been using my MacBook on my wireless connection for a while with no problems.
    Suddenly everything goes bad. My ISP ( ADSL+2 ) and Netgear ( WGT624 wireless router ) get me up and running again BUT when I load the first page of a web site it takes ages to load. From then on the pages linked to that home page load quickly.
    If i connect directly to the modem all pages load quickly.
    Netgear seem to have exhausted their options eg reducing MTU, changing channel, resetting the router etc but the first page still takes an age to load.
    Any advice gratefully received..
    thanks Colin

    Hi,
    Your question is very vague. There could be many reasons why the app would be slow in performance (your queries might be slow / memory would be less etc.).
    Check out this guide and tune your application accordingly.

  • Why do my Web pages load very slowly?

    Hello,
    I have had some great help from all of you for getting my web site to where it is, so a Big thank you.
    I still have a problem with the pages taking a long time to load. People are telling me it takes too long to load any page, and then once its loaded and they want to go to another, it takes just as long, by then they are over it and can't be bothered.
    What can I do to fix this problem? My site is www.claxtonolives.com .
    Thanks

    One reason is that the background image on all your pages except for the first page, shapeimage_9.png for your pages is 1.2 MB, way too big. You should use a file resizing application like Resize! which will let you keep the pixel dimension and change the jpg compression to reduce the file size. I was able to reduce that file down to 197KB by using Decent (60) JPEG Quality in Resize at 100% pixel dimension. You might even be able to go lower. You'd have to test it and see at what compression level it become unsatisfactory. You could do the same for the large picture on the first page.

  • Last part of web page loads very slowly

    Does anyone else have the following problem?
    A lot of web pages will load fairly fast on both wi-fi and EDGE. Except for the last 5%. The progress bar seems to stop right around 5% and will take a minute or 2 before being completely done. This happens on most major web sites and only on the iPhone and not on other Safari browsers.
    Please let me know. Thanks.

    Have you tried clearing the Cache?

  • Pages load very slowly, but load fine in Chrome and Safari. I've tried disabling add-ons, restarting, even uninstalling and reinstalling with no luck.

    This just began happening today, although I had not installed any new add-ons. This problem also happens on version 4.01.

    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.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
    * Make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) [[Private Browsing]] mode.
    * You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
    * To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Firefox > Preferences > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
    * Uncheck: [ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"

  • Since update, various sites load very slowly and some do not load until "Reload Current Page" is clicked several times.

    Since Firefox update (6.0.2) many sites load very slowly and some do not load at all (green circle rotates infinitely) until "Reload Current Page" is clicked on 2 to 12 times.
    Returned to version 5. No more slow load.
    Automatically re-updated me to 6.0.2 and now slow again.
    Returned to FF 5 again and turned off automatic update.
    Downloaded 7.0.1 and the problem seems to be solved.

    Same here, only that updating to 7.0 or 7.0.1 doesn't seem to solve this issue. Seems to have something to do with loading images (e.g: adobe.com stops loading when "wwwimages.adobe.com" is being loaded. imdb.com, on the other hand, seems to load images very slowly and not all of them).
    Safe-mode. disabling add-ons, clearing cache and cookies and checking for malware doesn't help.

  • Why when I open multiple tabs in Facebook, the tabs load very slowly and most times don't load at all?

    The default of the pref network.http.max-connections has been increased from 30 to 256 in Firefox 6+ versions.
    You can try to decrease the value of the pref <b>network.http.max-connections</b> from 255 to a more modest setting like 30 as used in Firefox 3 versions.

  • Website loads very slowly in Safari....

    I have had my website for quite a while and all of a sudden, when I try to view it in Safari, it loads very slowly and each time the welcome page loads, there are pictures missing. I have not done anything different to my site. Is this a problem with Mobileme or iWeb or both?? My site is captured4u.com

    I can't speak for past performance, but any page that is over a MB in size does take longer to load. A problem with your page is that you have an idea of how to add pictures and make the layout how you want it to look, but there is a price the viewer has to pay to download all of those graphics, including some of the text that are being converted to graphics by iWeb (which means Google can't read some of your categories for their index).
    I don't find that iWeb does a very good job of optimizing graphics for the web. They work, but dedicated graphics programs like Photoshop or even Photoshop Elements will do much better when the files are resized and saved for web properly.
    You would probably do better to simplify the home page with larger single graphics for each category that are used to point to other pages with more related photo's and descriptions. Remember, even the fancy picture frame outlines are more graphics the viewer has to load, and you need to be aware of when iWeb is going to convert your text into graphics either because you are not using standard web safe fonts, are rotating the text or adding other fancy attributes.
    Design and optimization are always a compromise. iWeb is not always smart about optimization, and mobileme is not the best solution for speed. They're fairly easy to use, but go easy on them...

  • Why does netflix load so slowly on 4g network.

    I have a verizon 4g lte router.  It has a very good data download speed.  When I perform a speedtest it comes in higher than 5.5 MBPS.  When I load from HULU it loads at about 2 MBPS.  However, often when loading from Netflix, it loads at less than 50 KBPS.    Any idea why netflix actually loads so slowly?  And if so, any Ideas on how to improve the rate?

        Hello PIequal
    That's a very strange issue. Let's get this fixed. I use Netflix all the time and never see that issue so I can see how this would be very frustrating.
    Which device do you have? What zip code are you in? Have you tried clearing the data and retesting?
    Please let me know so we can get to the bottom of this quickly.
