Why Does IT Take SOOOOO Long To Get New Shows And Podcast Updates!!!!!

Why Does IT Take SOOOOO Long To Get New Shows And Podcast Updates!!!!! It seems to me that it takes and unusually long time for TV shows to be uploaded to itunes and it takes FOREVER (VH1) to get Podcast updates. Also I notice that Vh1's Best Week Ever is a hit or miss deal. Some weeks it's on iTunes and some weeks it's not......why?
Paul

The iTunes store simply provides a link to the originating podcast server.
When the podcast owner puts a new episode up, it is available.

After clicking on a link, why does it take so long to find the site - and sometime not find it at all?

This seemed to begin right after Firefox update several wks ago. It sometimes takes up to 2 min to find a site after I click on link (whether in an email or on another site). This has been happening at least 90% of the time since then. There have been a few times when it did NOT happen; those seemed to be earlier in the day (mid-morning on W Coast) and possibly for a couple of days after Firefox did another update a few wks after the previous one. Sometimes it does not find the site at all and I get the "Oops! Sorry" msg.

A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that 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 to get my downloads for a season pass?

So, I bought a season pass for "How I Met Your Mother" Season 7.
The newest episode has been up for download for at least 8 hours, but I still can't download it with my season pass. Is there a way around this? How?
I live overseas, and this is one of the few indulgences from back home we get.

Without knowing the specific program you're referring to I can only offer general comments. Rebates are generally processed by a company that specialized in handing those for vendors, and as such, processing amid the many thousands if not millions of other claims takes a while. Most Apple rebate programs I've seen say to allow up to eight weeks for the rebate check or promotional item to arrive.

Why does it take so long to render a quicktime and/or wmv file?

I hope you can help with this! It's taking me forever to save a project as a qt file. I'm saving in expert settings with LAN/Intranet or broadband-high as the setting. In Imovie 4.0.1 I could usally render a 6+ minute project in under 10 minutes with those settings...in Imoive 6 HD it's going to take 3 times as long.
In a seperate issue...when I try to save my project as a wmv file it will only save the first :30 seconds or a six minute project.
Anyone have any ideas? What am I doing wrong? Thank yo for your advice!!!!

I'm saving in expert settings with LAN/Intranet or broadband-high as the setting.
As others have suggested, the type of export you are doing is apparently different than you did in iMovie 4.
Note that the LAN/Intranet and broadband-high you selected is only the second part of the export settings. It affects the size of the movie and indirectly, its quality. There's less compression with the LAN/Intranet setting and it delivers great quality.
The first part is the type of QuickTime movie to export to, selected from the popUp menu above the menu where you picked the LAN/Intranet setting. There are many choices offered in the top popUp menu, and for some, other settings to configure (optional).
If your export used the H.264 codec to compress the movie then Yes, the export will be slower than seen with other codecs. It's a very high quality codec, so the export is slower than others. That's the price we pay for quality I guess. (A price I happily pay. I usually do some other task on the computer as it chugs away.)

Using mountain lion, why does it take so long for mail to show up? messages appear on my iphone but not on my iMac

Using mountain lion on iMac. Email appears on my iPhone but when I open mail on desktop the messages aren't there and take several minutes before they appear. Thoughts as to why this happens? Anyone else experiencing this too?

Thank you. Check for new msgs is set for every minute. However, I got your message on my iPhone and it still hasn't appeared on iMac.

Why does it take so long in Mail to show an Inbox?

One of the few new features touted for Mail in Mavericks was increased speed.
But even a day later, after everything is fully updated and optimized and synced (as far as I can tell) it is horrendously slow going from Inbox to Inbox between accounts. I can click on one Inbox and wait 10-15 seconds before I see any mail in it.
Then I can go to another Inbox and the same thing happens there.
Then if I go back to the first Inbox it again takes 10-15 seconds to display the mail list.
What is going on? Anything I can fix, or is the new Mail just awful?

Yes, Mail in Mavericks really has gone downhill. I thought it was advertised as being faster. But it's actually horrendously slow going from inbox to inbox if you have multiple accounts. Plus all those hours of database rebuilding, etc. And counts not being updated. And reply indicators not syncing.
It just doesn't work right.
I sort of miss the UI, but I guess I'll stick with Airmail unless Apple fixes the Mail problems with a new release.
Other friends on FaceBook are reporting similar issues. I'm surprised this version of Mail got out of Beta.

Why does it take so long to download TV shows?

It says its going to take over 10 hours, this is ridiculous.

If you are downloading at work more than likely your bandwith is being throttled by your company. If your using a Mac, download a little utility called "MenuMeter" It runs in the menu bar and will display your connection speed.If your on a windows machine similar utilities are available as well. Once you find out what your speed is.it'll be much easier to trouble shoot!

What's wrong with this Forum? Why does Adobe take so long to reply to posts?!

What's wrong with this Forum? Why does Adobe take so long to reply to posts?!
This is actually "specific" to this Photoshop Forum.
I typically get responses back from other Adobe forum promptly.
Chime in.

The Adobe engineering folks DO duck in here from time to time - and that's a BLESSING! Please name any other big company where you get to interact with the engineers AT ALL. I can't. But I suspect the engineers actually have a lot oof real work to do, and their time here is necessarily limited.
Your comments are more along the line of "I pay a huge amount, for that I expect better support". These are very valid comments. But reality is different from what we may expect, and this forum is not the place to expect Adobe support participation AT ALL. In fact, the technical support people at Adobe often direct users to come here (something I've always found amusing).
At the higher level, Adobe may simply not be spending enough on support for literally millions of users. Is is greed or smart business to try to minimize support cost? That's up for individuals to decide.
I suggest you write a snail-mail letter to the Adobe president if you're not getting the support you need.

On my mac why does it take so long to send a Email with an attachment, on my mac why does it take so lone to send a Email with an attachment

on my mac why does it take so long to send a Email with an attachment, on my mac why does it take so lone to send a Email with an attachment

It depends on the size of the attachment and the speed of your internet connection.
Next time you send an email with an attachment do these two things:
In Apple Mail (I assume you are using Apple Mail), under the Window menu select Activity. Arrange the Activity window so you can see it.
Then open the separate application located in the Utilities folder called "Activity Monitor" and arrange it so you can see it at the same time as the Activity window in Mail.
In Activity Monitor program, select the tab labeled "Network." Watch the "Data sent/sec" portion. Then send your email, while watching the Mail Activity window and also the Activity Monitor program window Data sent/sec area.
You should see the mail being sent with a progress bar in the Mail Activity window and also you should be able to see how many bytes/sec or KB/sec or MB/sec your internet connection is giving you in the Activity Monitor window.
Example: my internet provider gives me about 20 Megabits per second download and 5 Megabits per second upload. To convert these to Megabytes per second (Activity Monitor shows things in bytes, not bits), simply divide by 10 (not the exact thing to do, but close enough). So I get 0.5 Megabytes per second upload speed. When I send a file that is 5 Megabytes in size, it takes about 10 seconds if I am getting the full upload bandwidth. If I am getting less than that (which sometimes happens), it will take proportionately more time. Either way, you can see what is happening with these two windows.
If your internet provider is supposed to give you, say, 5 Megabits/sec upload (0.5 Megabytes/sec), but you see only say, 5 KB/sec (=0.005 Megabytes/sec), sent in Activity Monitor, then your emails are taking a long time because you are getting only abut 1/100 the speed you should be. You might want to check with your internet provider about that.

Why does it take so long to upload pictures from iphote to AppleTV

Why does it take so long to upload pictures from iphoto to AppleTV? It takes hours to see a folder created in iPhoto to finally display on AppleTV.

Do you mean that you are importing music from an audio CD into iTunes? If so, the most likely causes of slow speeds are limitations of the CD drive you are using and/or the CD being dirty or damaged. If you turn on error correction within iTunes this can slow down the import process if it is repeatedly re-reading the same data before it gets a repeatable result (though it is a good idea to always have error connection enabled as the alternative is audible errors in the results). Depending on which system I'm using typical CD reading speeds vary between 5x and 12x (so a nominal 74 min CD imports in 6-15 min).
Importing a CD has nothing to do with your internet connection (which is only used to look up the song titles, etc. before you start importing).
However, if you are downloading music from the iTunes store or another internet retailer such as Amazon, I'd expect an album's worth of m4a/mp3 files to download in 1-2 minutes on a typical broadband connection. If this is what you're doing, and its taking an hour to complete, then there's a problem with the broadband connection itself or with how your PC is set up to use it.

Why does it take so long to back up whilst im updating from 4.3.5 to 5.0?

Why does it take so long to back up whilst im updating from 4.3.5 to 5.0?
its been on for ages and its not even a quarter of the way backed up!

The Brave New World of AC wireless networking.. where the reality falls far short of the hype.
Unfortunately in an actual transfer situation, the signal to noise of wireless (RSSI figure drops dramatically), It simply uses AC as a link speed but speed is always renegotiated during an actual file transfer.. to some sustainable level. I suspect that level is not AC wireless but N.
It does matter if you run older devices.. nothing with a or b or g wireless should be running in your house. Even n wireless may cause issues.. try turning everything else off and see if you get speed lift.
As far as the time required for a clean up, is this a first backup as they always take a significantly longer time. Once you are doing regular incrementals the time is usually very short.

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 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.

HT201328 Why does it take so long for Apple to unlock an iPhone 3GS.

I have been trying to unlock my iPhone 3GS whrough my provider since 31st August, and they are still waiting for a information from Apple. Why does it take so long? Surely this will put people (i.e. me) from getting another iPhone in the future.

The carrier unlocks the phones... once the carrier officially unlocks they send an email to apple... Apple's database picks up this info from the imei number... it's all done computerized. Apple has nothing to do with unlocking whatsoever!
The contract is between the customer and the carrier. It would be illegal for apple to unlock a phone considering Apple is not a part of any contract!
Apple is a manufactor and support for their products... not a carrier!
Carriers push this crap on Apple when they know good and well they are the ones who unlock! Customers can call Apple to see if it's unlocked, but it's a database... they have no way of unlocking or locking phones!

Why does it take a long time to back up my iPhone?

My iPhone is taking forever to backup. Whenever I pluf it in and it starts to back up it seems to stay on the screen in my iTunes and the bar doesn't move at all. I need help. What should I do?

Extraordinary long backups are caused by an error when an app (or apps) was installed or updated, particularly if you have ever installed or updated using the App Store on the device itself rather than iTunes. Even if you were never aware that there was a problem, they can arise and will cause problems with the backup process. Maybe you did have a problem during an update or install. Maybe the update stalled, or the App Store crashed. These issues are very likely what have been causing your long backups and you didn't even know it. During the backup process these errors cause it to drag and pause for a very long time before it gets moving again. From your view, you just see a normal backup that is taking hours, and undoubtedly annoying you to no end. On the inside, iTunes is trying desperately to get past a roadblock that it doesn't know where it came from.
