Why do webpages load slowly in iOS 8?

Why do webpages load so slowly in Safari now that I've updated to iOS 8?

Hey PatagiceDSavannah,
It could be an issue with the microphone on your iPhone not picking up your voice. Take a look at the article below to walk you through some troubleshooting to get you talking with Siri again. If you still are experiencing the issue, you may want to reach out to Apple Support to further assist you.
If your voice is too faint or sounds unclear using iPhone, or iPod touch

Fast Internet Connection, but webpages loading slowly

Hello everybody,
this is my first post in this community. So far this group has helped me to solve all kinds of problems I ran into by simply browsing the forum, but this time I hope that somebody might be able to help me directly.
My wireless network at home consists of an AirPort Extreme Base Station (4th Generation) and an AirPort Express Base Station that are both connected via Ethernet to a Cisco Router. I have a cable internet connection and I use the Cisco Router (which was provided by my ISP) as an interface between the cable socket and my two Apple base stations. However, only the AirPort Extreme Base Station is used to create a wireless network. The AirPort Express is used only for AirPlay.
For a couple of months now, I have been experiencing an odd problem. Webpages take a very long time to load on my MacBook Pro (13'' Retina display), my older MacBook, as well as on my girlfriend's MacBook Air (11''). Sometimes the pages load for so long that there is a timeout before the page is loaded completely. I experience this with all kinds of web browsers (Safari, Firefox, Chrome). The odd thing is that only the loading of webpages seem to be affected. Internet Downloads, Video Streams, etc. are still extremely fast. I get the following results on speedtest.net (after spending 1 minute to load the page):
- Ping: 9ms
- Download Speed: 38.55 Mbps
- Upload Speed: 7.62 Mbps
Also, when connected to the network with my iPad or my girlfriend's iPhone, pages load with a normal speed. We experience the issues only on our Mac computers. Outside my home network all computers load pages as quickly as they should.
Here is a list of things that I tried:
- Restarted AirPort Extreme Base Station and Cisco Router
- Factory Reset of AirPort Extreme Base Station and Cisco Router
- Downgraded AirPort Extreme Base Station from 7.6.1. to various former versions and back
- Changed channels of the Airport Extreme Base Station
- Connected to AirPort Extreme base station via Ethernet (pages still loading slowly)
- Ran Activity Monitor on my Mac, but found no activities that could cause the Mac to slow down
- Ran Network Utility and sent a ping to google.com, but experienced no traffic loss
At this point I am really running out of ideas on how to solve this. Does anybody have a clue what might cause this?
Best regards,
Georg

HI tzbikowski,
thanks for your message!
I added 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 to my DNS server list. This has definitely improved things. Pages are loading quicker now, but it's still far from the speed you would expect. Could you elaborate on what you mean when you say that the cisco settings should be correctly propagated onto LAN? When connecting to the Cisco router through the admin interface, it mentions two different DNS servers that the router appears to use (I guess those are provided by my ISP). Are you referring to these servers?
Thanks!

Why is QuickTime loading slowly on my 4S

Lately, I've been streaming TV shows to my iPhone 4S. But, a day or two ago QuickTime started loading very slowly. My questions are, why is this happening, and what can be done to resolve this? Ive had my 4S for 5 months.

Hello JF5111,
I would recommend you do steps 1, 3, and 5 of the iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant found here http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/phone/.
If you get to step 3, I suggest closing all the apps. Here is step 1 to get you started:
Restart iPhone
To restart iPhone, first turn iPhone off by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until a red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider and iPhone will turn off after a few moments.
Next, turn iPhone on by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Is iPhone not responding? To reset iPhone, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If your device does not turn on or displays a red battery icon, try recharging next.
Regards,
Sterling

Webpages load slowly in Firefox (about 5 minutes or longer for most pages) but load instantly in Internet Explorer. This has been happening for the last few upgrades, but years ago never used to be a problem. What could it be?

I don't think it's every webpage, but most of them, and all pages open instantly in Internet Explorer but Firefox takes minutes to open a page and just sits there with a white screen while it's loading.

It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.

Why is iMovie loading slowly?

I have a terabyte external drive with 8 events on it, and when iMovie opens, the app doesn't respond for about 30 minutes, it just has a spinning icon in the middle that stays in the middle of my screen even if i move iMovie away. PLEASE HELP!!!
Message was edited by: hockeydude1235

I have similar problem. In my case opening iMovie is slow and also starting full screen preview of projects. No problems with viewing events.
iM09 was snappy when I had few short projects, but became very slow when I started first long one (~1.5H). I'm sure that there is nothing wrong with that particular project. When I removed it everything turned back to normal. Then created a new long project without any transitions, titles etc, just pure DV footage even without cuts, and thing became slow again. I keep everything on internal drive.

Why is safari loading certain web pages so slowly?

Emptied the Safari cache lately?
Press Command + Option + E then quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that doesn't help, try this DNS.
Open System Preferences > Network > Advanced > DNS
Click + and type:
208.67.222.222
Click + again and do the same.
208.67.220.220
Click OK.

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.

Webpage loading

Good evening,
Over the past month or so, I have been having very slow internet connection. Actually, webpage loading is the problem. If I can explain so you understand: when I have a website entered for search in the address bar, for instance: http://discussioins.apple.com, the address "highlights" as it's searching, but intermittently. For instance, only the first 5 characters of the address highlight, then there is a pause, then the next few characters in the address highlight, pause again. This action occurs until finally. This goes on until the entire address is highlighted then of course, the website loads, albeit slowly. This has never happened before and I have not changed any settings. Any resolve for this issue?
Thank you.
FMW

Hi
if Safari, then it sounds normal for a slow connection.
You might read http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3408?viewlocale=en_US & try different dns for starters.
If that doesn't help & it is just Safari - try trashing Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db with Safari closed. It's Safari's cache.

Applications load slowly on imac after Mavericks clean install

After a clean install of Mavericks, my late 2009 imac runs more slowly compared to how it ran under Snow Leopard. Applications like "Settings" take a few seconds to load, whereas under snow leopard, the application would load almost instantly. The Novabench score now is around 771, and matches about what I measured after the clean Mavericks install, but appears low compared to scores for similarly configured systems running Snow Leopard. The system is quite usable, especially if applications are left open, just slower. Is it possible to identify from Etrecheck a possible explanation? Is this level of degradation of performance expected when upgrading an old system? Thank you for your help.

IWeb Pages Load Slowly in Browser

Even since the 1.0 version of iWeb, I noticed that the content rich themes resulted in very slow page loads. So, I decided to choose the most minimalist theme possible -- Modern. Even with the latest version, I still notice that the pages created load quite slowly. Here's a simple page with just a few elements on it:
http://web.mac.com/resourcesforlife/journal/
The various layers load at different times, so rather than text appearing on a page, the text appears without a page and then the image layer of the paper shows up later -- kind of ruining the effect of text on a paper.
Previously, the blog directory (main page) would load at an average speed. Now it seems even slower. There are some kind of white borders being placed around the images and this takes a while to apply. I didn't notice these prior to the 2.0 version of iWeb.
So, in general, the density of coding on the pages and inefficient design of the pages, seems to cause them to load slowly. This is a similar problem to what I've heard about with people using Microsoft Word to create HTML pages. The code ends up being very complicated and takes a long time for the browser to interpret. So, many people use programs like Dreamweaver to create the cleanest and simplest code possible for their pages allowing them to load quickly.
Another example of an unnecessarily slow page is my blog archive. It's just text. When it generates, it almost seems like the server is creating the page using a MySQL engine or something like that. One would think that the archive page might be generated into clean HTML at the time of publishing. I looked at the source code, and it isn't pre-generated using basic HTML. It's calling up Java Script routines to generate the page:
http://web.mac.com/resourcesforlife/journal/writings/Archive.html
Any thoughts on this topic?

How weird, but cool! It's too bad iWeb isn't as smart as you are. Since the site generates much of the coding on the fly at the time of publishing to the web, you would think it could think of a smarter way (like the one you've presented) to generate the page image. For example, the text I typed in on the little notepad begins as me typing text. It ultimately ends up as a graphic image created by iWeb when publishing. So, why not just make the entire page a relatively compact JPG image?
Your suggestion would work great if I wasn't planning on changing the content of my main opening page.
I noticed if I used the fun handwriting font along with others in the same text box, that the entire text box became hundreds (like 300) different images representing the separate text and links on the page -- super inefficient. So, I ended up using the fun handwriting font in a separate text box that gets converted to an image and then another text box of Arial font text:
http://web.mac.com/resourcesforlife/journal/topics.html
So, that works on those pages. But I wanted the main page to look nice. Oh, also, some of the elements on the page are links. The movie tickets link to a certain page, for example. So, I'd need to create hotspots in the jpg image to accommodate for that.
In any event, I'm still going back to mark this question as solved because I think for most people's situations it would be with the suggestion you made -- use iWeb to design the graphics of a page, and then save it as a JPG.
I suppose I could also use Pages or Keynote to do the same. Once an entire web page is a JPG image, it doesn't matter how it was created.

Videos Loading Slowly!

Hi,
I was viewing quicktime videos on a website today and all of sudden everything started loading slowly. I immediately went to disk utilities and ran it. Still the videos ran slowly. I even did Diskwarrior and shut down/restarted my computer and still they are loading at a very slow rate. Is there something else I can do? Why are the videos loading slowly? I've checked my internet speed on websites like msnbc.com and my business website which has flash videos and they worked fine. I also had someone send me another quicktime video which although it didn't load promptly was playing in less than 7 seconds.

Post a link/URL of the slow loading video website.

Z87 GD45 Network issues/some sites loading slowly

Hi, I've just built a new system with a MSI Z87 GD45 and i5 4670k. Everything is running great, but certain websites load slowly.
Microsoft has been the worst so far. At first the page I need would sometimes not load all the assets, and then it would load the site fine, but the downloads are ALWAYS unbearably slow. I had to get the .NET 4.5 framework because my AMD catalyst drivers were stopping on that process, but downloading from microsoft was under 1KB/s. I ended up having to download the .NET framework through a torrent, because every other site just mirrored microsofts link.
Other websites are intermittently loading very slowly or just a little bit slower than they should.
I have a 100Mbit fiber connection that consistently gets between 110 and 116MbitDL and 2.3-2.5Mbit UL on speedtest.net from my local server. When I say some sites are loading slow, I mean slower than 56k, not slow relative to my normal fast speeds. My last computer using realtek eNIC and my room mates computer using a broadcomm eNIC has no such issues.
What I have tried so far:
Downloaded the latest killer E2200 drivers and removal utility.
Removed old drivers, rebooted.
Run removal utility, rebooted.
Installed new drivers, rebooted.
Tried with Atheros Killer application manager enabled (default) and disabled.
My system consists of:
MSI z87 GD45
Core i5 4670k (stock)
GEIL Evo veloce 16GB (2x8GB) 1866 (XMP)
Gigabyte HD7950 3GB windforce (from my old computer)
Seasonic 660w Platinum PSU in hybrid fan mode (in stress testing the fan has never switched on)
Sandisk Extreme II 240GB SSD
WD 3TB green HDD
Windows 7 Pro 64-bit
The system has otherwise been completely stable and runs cool in stress testing (prime95 and furmark).
The only other issue(s) is that there is no driver installed for the PCI Simple communications Controller and two other Unknown Devices in the Device manager. I installed the chipset, LAN and audio drivers and then the intel USB3 driver. On reboot, nothing using USB worked, including my mouse and keyboard, so I rebooted in safe mode and removed the driver... now everything works. Should I perhaps look for a newer version of this driver. I can't see how that's related to my internet speed issue though...
Back to the problem, right now I'm downloading microsoft security essentials at 4KB/s which is the fastest it has gone so far. Before that I downloaded a game from steam at 8-12MB/s..... why is microsofts site so consistently slow on my system?

Hi Andrew86,
It's obvious you just made a typo. Here is one topic regarding internet with the 45 : https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=170539.0
This seemed to be a solution
Quote from: Insirion on 29-August-13, 00:53:15
yesterday I got a bluescreen. i had those 3 times that week. On the log it said it was because of the killer network card.
Too fix this I went to "msconfig' then the tab services. And check off "Qualcomm Atheros killer Service",
And under boot I disabled KillerNetManager. Wiorked for me so far.
