Why do we all moan acout the speed on asdl broadba...

You know in this day and age we should all know that broadband is a tricky buisness where diffrent companys have good working lines and some are upgrading others dont.The main thing with all is the wires that connect our houses from there exchange.From the first days bt have a copper wiring system.Which means telephone is ok but broadband can be slow or even non-existant.Thats why we all want super fast fiber yet it is still the asdl copper lines using this.Ok some of the wireing may be fiber coated but from there end at the begining of the exchange and where your house is from cabinet to modem,it is again copper at there areas too.Bt and others are making a connection to connection begining to end with only fiber used.But until that day where the areas home and buisness are all dug up,had the fiber wired dropped down into the earth beneth our feet im afraid some are lucky a good speed,while a neighbour can be slow and the usual broadband speed no matter what the cost.Now cable was a thing good in 1995,when the net first started,for half of uk.Ok to start it was 1meg and 2 but its increased.There service completly is fiber to fiber door to door.Thats why they have cable and already most of half of uk dug up.But im afraid the company we had take over in 2008 or so are dull,unimaginable,trying to flog a dead horse with 6 month frills,and deals.When they do have a good service but try to outweigh any good-doing buy the speed being slow again,slugish when all they have to do is sort out a couple of things to have it run right......cable is a luxury if it works 120meg and a decent price.We should have there cables rented out to bt say except branson,on Johnathen ross  in island life 24 hours...See uk dont moan complain about slow,stop,freezing pics as its all down to you..You pay tax and so on,let these companys keep the man in the street waiting.ste

Cable isn't FTTP. Cable is FTTC then Coax Cable from there to the premises.
Also Virgin can ram as much speed down there cable as they want, problem is the throughput on it is always lower as there cable TV service traffic that is pumped down the same cable takes priority over internet traffic.

  • Why are not all photos in the "Photos" app not showing on the camera roll?

    On my iPad 2 (using iOS 7.1.2) there are 1,279 photos in the Photos application. The camera roll contains 77 photos. The About section in the Settings indicate I have 1,421 photos. Why is there this discrepancy in numbers? How can I move all 1,279 photos from the Photos application to a USB flash drive?

    You cannot.
    You have sync'd 1202 photos (1279-77)  from your computer using iTunes to your iPhone.
    You have 77 photos on you iPhone you have taken with the iPhone and have not sync'd to your computer and deleted from the Camera Roll.
    You should regularly sync all photos in the Camera Roll to your computer and delete them from the Camera Roll on the iPhone.
    -> iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    After you do this, you can sync whatever photos you want, back to your iPhone using iTunes. (These are the photos NOT in the Camera Roll).
    -> iTunes: Syncing photos
    After all this, you can copy photos from your computer to a USB flash drive.

  • WHY ITUNE SYNC ALL APPLICATIONS IN THE IPAD EVERYTIME THE IPAD IS CONNECTED TO THE COMPUTER?

    I HAVE BEEN USING MY IPAD 2 FOR TWO WEEKS. LAST NIGHT, WHEN I CONNECTED MY IPAD WITH THE LAPTOP, THE ITUNE STARTED TO SYNC ALL APPLICATIONS IN THE IPAD. I TOOK ALMOST 6 HOURS TO FINISH THE SYNC. THIS AFTERNOON, I TURNED OFF THE IPAD, THEN TURNED ON AGAIN. WHEN I CONNECTED IT TO THE LAPTOP, SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN.

    You need to restore your iPad but do not restore from a backup, restore as a new device otherwise you will transfer all the same apps again. My guess is one or more are not compatible or corrupted.

    After you have restored as new, sync 5 apps at time then test the iPad. Process of elimination.

  • My music is in the cloud, but it's also on my hard drive.  Why does it all show with the cloud icon?  Anyway to force the iTunes client to recognize that all of the music is already in my iTunes library folder?

    Recently moved to a new PC.  Upon installing iTunes, in the Settings dialogue, I've indicated where my iTunes library is stored.  And yet, all of my albums in iTunes are showing up with the "cloud" icon, meaning that the client doesn't realize there is a local copy.  Clicking the "cloud" icon ends up downloading a duplicate copy of the song/album. 
    Any suggestions for how to fix this...so that my iTunes client knows all of this music is on my hard drive (in addition to being in the cloud)?
    Thanks!

  • The Speed Of This Whole Wireless Thing

    Right now I have an ethernet cable that comes out of the wall an goes straight to the computer. I have a great connection and have downloaded .zips as fast as 356kbs. Im real happy with it.
    I was thinking about getting a base station and to go with the airport extreme card in my imac.
    Am I going to be disappointed in my internet connection if I do this?
      Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Richard,
    I don't think that you will be at all disappointed with the speed of an Airport Extreme network for internet use. I have recently abandoned my mass of messy cables and gone for a fully wireless network using an Airport Express. The download speeds from the internet (I have 2Mbps broadband) are excellent and I notice no difference from my old 100Mbit cabled network.
    As Lanny and iFelix quite rightly point out, the speed of Airport Extreme is well in excess of your internet connection by 5 - 10 times in real world use, so it should not be a limiting factor.
    The only time you would ever want to go back to the cables is if you needed to transfer a VERY large amount of data over your LAN on a regular basis - we're talking a whole iTunes library or some dvd disk images here.

  • Which Mac Pro? More cores=slower speeds? And most of us know the speed matters or FPU for music and I don't understand the faster is for the least amount of procs. And while I get the whole rendering thing and why it makes sense.

    Which Mac Pro? More cores=slower speeds? And most of us know the speed matters or FPU for music and I don't understand the faster is for the least amount of procs. And while I get the whole rendering thing and why it makes sense.
    The above is what the bar says. It's been a while and wondered, maybe Apple changed the format for forums. Then got this nice big blank canvas to air my concerns. Went to school for Computer Science, BSEE, even worked at Analog Devices in Newton Massachusetts, where they make something for apple. 
    The bottom line is fast CPU = more FPU = more headroom and still can't figure out why the more cores= the slower it gets unless it's to get us in to a 6 core then come out with faster cores down the road or a newer Mac that uses the GPU. Also. Few. I'm the guy who said a few years ago Mac has an FCP that looks like iMovie on Steroids. Having said that I called the campus one day to ask them something and while I used to work for Apple, I think she thought I still did as she asked me, "HOW ARE THE 32 CORES/1DYE COMING ALONG? Not wanting to embarrass her I said fine, fine and then hung up.  Makes the most sense as I never quite got the 2,6,12 cores when for years everything from memory to CPU's have been, in sets of 2 to the 2nd power.  2,4,8,16,32,64,120,256,512, 1024, 2048,4196,8192, 72,768.  Wow. W-O-W and will be using whatever I get with Apollo Quad. 
    Peace to all and hope someone can point us in THE RIGHT DIRECTION.  THANK YOU

    If you are interested in the actual design data for the Xeon processor, go to the Intel site and the actual CPU part numbers are:
    Xeon 4 core - E5.1620v2
    Xeon 6 core - E5.1650v2
    Xeon 8 core - E5.1680v2
    Xeon 12 core - E5.2697v2
    I read that the CPU is easy to swap out but am sure something goes wrong at a certain point - even if solderedon they make material to absorb the solder, making your work area VERY clean.
    My Question now is this, get an 8 core, then replace with 2 3.7 QUAD CHIPS, what would happen?
    I also noticed that the 8 core Mac Pro is 3.0 when in fact they do have a 3.4 8 core chip, so 2 =16? Or if correct, wouldn't you be able to replace a QUAD CHIP WITH THAT?  I;M SURE THEY ARE UO TO SOMETHING AS 1) WE HAVE SEEN NO AUDIO FPU OR PERHAPS I SHOULD CHECK OUT PC MAKERS WINDOWS machines for Sisoft Sandra "B-E-N-C-H-M-A-R-K-S" -
    SOMETHINGS UP AND AM SURE WE'LL ALL BE PLEASED, AS the mac pro      was announced Last year, barely made the December mark, then pushed to January, then February and now April.
    Would rather wait and have it done correct than released to early only to have it benchmarked in audio and found to be slower in a few areas- - - the logical part of my brain is wondering what else I would have to swap out as I am sure it would run, and fine for a while, then, poof....
    PEACE===AM SURE APPLE WILL BLOW US AWAY - they have to figure out how to increase the power for 150 watts or make the GPU work which in regard to FPU, I thought was NVIDIA?

  • Why is the SSD on 2011 Macbook Air much slower then 2010 Macbook Pro with Samsung 830 SSD (less then half the speed) ?

    Why is a laptop designed from ground up to use flash slower then a older laptop with a upgraded SSD from a 3rd party?
    My old MBP is more then 2x the speed (read/write) with a SSD upgrade (Samsung 830) then my Air.
    Any fixes or mods to boost the flash speed of the Air?

    We would like you to show us how to do that.......Especially when the Samsung 830 will not fit the Air.....Please don't say duct tape....
    Ok, scratch that idea.  Let me think for a moment,,,em,,,em.  OK I got it.  Sell both units and buy a mid Macbook Air 2012 version.

  • Why is my macbook pro running so slow and how do I improve the speed?

    why is my macbook pro running so slow and how do I improve the speed?

    Write off the MS stuff as indicators for now--starting with Office 2008, they developed very long launch times. The time to launch 2008 on my old 1.25Ghz G4 and my MBP 2.2G are virtually the same. Even document opens/saves are slow compared to Office 2004 and earlier.
    1) You have adequate hard drive space so that eliminates one of the usual suspects.
    2) Check for runaway background processes. Quit all running user applications so the computer is at normal idle. Find Activity Monitor in Applications > Utilities and launch it. If you've not run it before, change the "Show" pulldown at the top of the AM window from its default of "User Processes" to "All Processes." There is a column for "%CPU." Click that column header to sort by CPU usage. Watch the processes "bubble" for about a minute to get a better picture of the usage.
    If any process is using more than about 25 percent of the CPU cycles while the computer is idling, post the names of the processes and we can see if they can be eliminated. My MBP shows nothing using more that about 5 percent on any given test run as long as I close all my user apps.
    3) If you have never done any sort of maintenance procedures, taht can slow you down. Simply restarting the computer a few times a week clear a lot of temporary files. You also may wish to review this article on the Mac OSX periodic maintenance scripts, which, if run, also do a lot of cleanup:
    http://thexlab.com/faqs/maintscripts.html
    There are other useful articles on file maintenance associated with the one. Here's the index:
    http://thexlab.com/faqs/faqs.html
    Check out articles with "Maintain" and "Tuning" in the titles.
    4) Use Disk Utility to check the SMART Status of your hard drive. A failing drive can make things slow before it makes things stop.

  • Why are there so many more choices on the USA iTunes Store? Surely having an iTunes account should let you access all itunes availability the world over? Also how do you request films/tv series to the UK itunes?

    Why are there so many more choices on the USA iTunes Store? Surely having an iTunes account should let you access all itunes availability the world over?
    Also how do you request films/tv series to the UK itunes? There's tv series I'd like but they're incomplete like The Batman & Xena Warrior Princess. And films theta aren't available for download but you can purchase in a store like HMV?  Apple isn't doing itself any favours by secluding countries by their store. They'd make billions if you could just select the iTunes Store you want to search & purchase from just by signing in! If anything what they're doing is putting themselves into a corner, other companies like Samsung & HTC are already on too of them for innovation & ease of use. The people they're attracting are predominantly existing Apple users not new customers. What do you guys think?

    It's not Apple's choice, they can only sell a particular item where the content provider/rights-holder has granted them a license to sell them. Content is licensed by the rights-holders to Apple on a country-by-country basis, each country therefore has to have its own store, and you have to be in a country to use its store - they want control over where their content is available.
    You can try requesting that an item be added to the UK store via this page, but unless the rights-holder agrees to then Apple won't be able to sell it here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

  • Why are all my calendars the same?

    every calendar i make shows all my events, to dos, birthdays etc.
    i am sure it is something i am doing wrong otherwise ical is useless, why do i need multiple calendars all showing the same info?
    when i uncheck "show birthday calendar" it removes birthdays from all calendars not the one i am working in.
    thanks and sorry if this is dealt with but i can't find it in my searches.
    rachel

    I am not sure if I understand your issue, so I will try to clarify.
    You say that when you uncheck "show birthday calendar" it removes birthdays from all calendars. But the birthday calendar is its own calendar, and as such birthdays will only show in the birthday calendar not all calendars. Is that not the case?
    If you select the weekly view for example, don't you see color coded events - assuming you have used different colors for each calendar you have - that "belong" to each calendar?
    When creating a new event, are you not able to choose which calendar it will belong to?

    Why can I no longer delete specific messages on my iphone5?  There now is only an option to Delete All i.e. the entire conversation.  Can this be resolved.

    I don't know what to tell you if you really are running iOS 5 but on iOS 8 when you hold down a message you get the options Copy and More. When you click more you can select a specific message and click the trash can to delete just that message. Check and see if you have that as an option.
