Why does iChat take sooooooo long to load a saved conversation?
I don't know if it's just my computer, but it takes really really long for iChat to load a saved conversation. I opened one last night, and it took 32 minutes to open. That's terrible. In the meantime, it lagged my whole computer and logged me out of AIM. What can I do?
Hi,
In Tiger the Recent item only showed those chats you had opened before.
In Leopard this item in the File menu of iChat shows Recent Chats and Recent Saved Chats.
Which route are you using to access the saved Chats ?
Also have you moved the default folder ?
Is this identified in iChat > Preferences > Messages pane ?
Mine open almost instantly.
I am having a hard time imagining why they would be delayed unless really long or group chats or some with files or Pics that you download to the Desktop and it is having trouble finding all the bits that were in it (or even if they are where iChat thinks they were left/put on download)

Why does it take so long to load a web page on my iPad
Why does it take so long to load a web page on my new ipad wifi
This is probably not a problem with the iPad, but with the wi-fi. If your internet connection and/or wi-fi speeds are slow, then loading web pages will be slow. If I was you, I would research different kinds of wireless routers to find the fastest one in your price range, and also research different kinds of modems.

Why does it take so long to load a tv show?
why does it take so long to load a tv show or movie when i am connected to a wifi other than my home?
Very probably because many devices are sharing the same Internet pipe and you're getting only a portion of the total capacity.
I suggest that you obtain the free "SpeedTest" app and compare data rates at home and elsewhere. -
Why does it take so long to download a saved movie from the cloud
Why does it take so long to download a saved movie from the cloud
Hi first off if your running fcp 7 with compressor 3.5 and fcp x and compressor 4 on the same drive you may run into problems
as you now have a mix up between Qmasters which caused me lots of problems when i did any back ground Rendering via compressor of FCP-X
i had to completly remove compressor 3.5 and compressor 4 then put compressor 4 back on again as the shared rendering out of FCP-X seems to loose the plot with both versions on the same on the same drive there is an app
Here
http://www.digitalrebellion.com/fcsremover/
which you can get allows you to get rid of certain bits of FCS and FCP-X correctly as you may know deleting the app is,nt the whole story as you need to remove the pref etc as well
but its really clearing out every thing to do with qmaster thats is the thing here thats what causes all the issues
really you should follow apple install instructions for FCP -X install ( and put it on separate volumes ) and i know they say there is a way to get every thing working on the same drive ...but it did,nt work for me like you i had massive render times and that 3x crash error
any way
once i had remove done my remove C3.5 ,C4 and reinstall C4 only it worked straight away from FCP-X using all the cores on my machine
get some thing like istats or run activity monitor to make sure Fcp-x is using all your cores to render and you can actually see if its doing anything at all instead of waiting 5 hours for an error
if you want to use multi core in compressor 4 you have to go into the new apple qmaster tab and setup up a quick cluster etc
On another note i alway use Optimized media when doing the import as while you editing its back ground render every thing into pro res making it a much nice codec to compress down to H264 which you need for the ATV
i hope that helps a bit ,some else may have a better solution but worked for me
thanks

Why does Firefox take so long to load beta images on some sites?
I upgraded to one of the latest versions of Firefox, and it's better in some ways. It loads much faster than previous versions, but when I try to look at certain websites - the Globe and Mail is one of them - I get messages like "waiting for beta images" and Firefox just sits there and I can't look at the site. Why does Firefox take so long to upload beta images? I don't have that problem with Internet Explorer.

Why does Captivate take so long to load ?
I am aware that there is a problem when working with Captivate and connected to company network. As a result of this issue I do not work in "My Documents" but in a folder on local C drive. Not sure if this problem is related to the below...I guess the two are related however.
I "suffer" with the time delay from the moment I click on my desktop shortcut for Captivate (v4 / Win XP) to the time I can get started in Captivate.
When I click on desktop shortcut I get the below screen.
The section at the bottom (marked #1) is initially empty and can take up to 30-40 seconds before the data appears.
The main section (marked #2) is visible from the initial start up, but the links are not activated. I have to wait for at least another 30-40 seconds AFTER the bottom section 1 has become visible before the links become active and I can get started.
1. Is it the case that Captivate does not become "active" until it has connected to an Adobe website to enable the different links to help / tutorials etc, and this is the cause of the start up delay ?
2. Am I alone in experiencing such delays and therefore have to get my IT people to look at my laptop and try and work out why we are causing the delay ?
3. Or is this delay something other Captivate users suffer and something we have to live with as long as we have to use Adobe Captivate ?

Why does Pages take so long to load on ipad2
Most of the time when I launch Pages on ipad2 it takes awhile for the app to load all of the files. Sometimes I have to quit the app and try it again. Sometimes again. And then, finally it comes up and I am able to get to work. Anyone know why this is happening? Is it trying to reconcile with iCloud first, thus taking more time for me to get to work on something? Thanks for any help in this area.

Why does labview take so long to load
I have LabVIEW installed: along with LV RT and LV FPGA. When I want to target an FPGA board: 7813 or 7811 for example, the LV load time is minutes versus seconds. I understand that VISA is used to interface to the RIO boards. It seems that there is something waiting to timeout and LV takes a really long time to load. Any thoughts?
Is LabVIEW installed on a local disk or on a network resource?

Why does Logic take so long to load?
I have a dual quad core Mac Pro from last year and 8 gb of RAM.
I have 4 internal drives and 2 external drives.
Most of my music is not that complex: perhaps 8-10 tracks at the most.
Typically it takes 2-3 minutes for Logic to completely load a song.
Where is the bottleneck here?
Thanks.Thank you to everyone who replied.
I will try the audio suggestion.
I have quite a few plugins, etc.
Anyway it is not a big deal: I can wait a minute or two. LOL
Just thought that a dual quad core machine would be a bit zippier!
Thanks again. -
Why does Firefox take so long to load?
This problem just began yesterday, 12/12/12. When firefox takes a full minute to open, then as it begins to load my home page a script error message pops up, but doesn't load fully enough to 'continue' or 'stop script'. Over a period of 4 to 5 minutes, my home page mostly loads, but is not navigatible. I have tried to uninstall and it pops up with 'close running firefox, etc.' I have tried to re-install with the same results of closing the present firefox running message--however, no other firefox IS running. I have restarted my computer many times. I have turned off the computer & turned it back on. I am running Windows 7, 64 bit.
Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.

Why does it take so long to load my iweb pages
I'm brand new to using iWeb and this is my first attempt at a webpage: http://web.mac.com/cankuhnster It is a report on what I did and the San Diego Comic Con last week.
Can anyone give me suggestions on what I can do to make my pages load faster? I love the way the pages look but it takes a while to get the page to load.
Thanks,
Steve

I don't know how you made it (it may have been done by iWeb) but you should find a way to break it up into its parts (images and text). -

Why does it take sooooooo long for a page to come up in mozilla?
Mozilla seems to be getting slower and slower, I tried to open redit in mozilla and it was taking a loooooong time, then I tried with IE, and walaa it opened in IE less that than 2 seconds. What's up?
It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Why does it take so long for Firefox to load?
Why does it take so long for Firefox to launch at initial start up? It usually takes 3 or 4 minutes. IE loads within a few seconds.
Reset the homepage to something else, or do not use a home page at all.
