Why Does my Mac have to be refresh to load web page

Hey guys,
I have a MB with 2Ghz and mostly everytime i load a new webpage i have to refresh it multiple times before it loads completly....I know this cant be normal..When i refresh it, it could take more than 1 try or it works right away but it gets annoying having to refresh and wait..My regular Windows computer doesnt do that....BTW i have Cable Modem.....
Should i send it in to see what they can do.
has anyone had a problem and had it fixed.

Well I have the same problem with my macbook. The only difference is that it does this because I have wireless internet. Some routers dont communicate very well with the macbook if they are not that..... umm.... Airport? Im not exactly sure what its called but its an Apple router. When I connect my modem directly to my macbook, it works fine, But when I work through my router "REFRESH, REFRESH, REFRESH" Oh well, hope any of this helps....

Why does my IPAD 1, kick me out of a web page/site and return me to my home page?

Why does my IPAD 1, kick me out of a web page/site and return me to my home page?

Probably a glitch in Safari.
Quit Safari - double tap the Home button to reveal the multi-tasking window at the bottom. Swipe sideqays until you see the Safari icon. Tpa-and-hold until the red circle/hwite bar appears, then tap that to close Safari. You might do that with all the icons to be sure.
Tap the Home button to close multi-tasking.
Restart the device (hold Home and Sleep for around 10 seconds untl the Apple logo appears).
Fingers crosed, that'll fix it

Why does my Mac have so many updates?

My Mac constantly needs updating. It reminds me like everyday that it needs an update and then I'll update it and then a few days later it needs another update! This is really frustrating because my internet is too slow to update it all the time. Why does it do this?

If the update hasn't been applied, it will probably remind you until it's been applied. It will probably remind you at least as often as it is set to. You can use the Software Update system preference to turn off automatic updating.
Why would the system nag you often about an update? Because updates contain bug fixes, and it's good to have the latest fixes. On top of that, software updates contain security fixes, and Apple is very interested in making sure all users have the latest patches for any security holes that have been discovered since the last update. Because as you know, malware and security problems can cause you major problems if they are not blocked by the system. And as far as Apple is concerned they do not want any security problems to end up in the news if thousands of users were to be affected. So they issue fixes as soon as they can.

Why does it take 15minutes for firefox to open a web page??

Have you tried to eliminate everything extraneous. In other words, do you experience the same delays with a simple Java program (no lookups, JNDI) that loads the drivermanager and creates a connection.
Do you have access to a traciong JVM or some program that captures run-time execution timing information? Even without the source, this will tell you the specific class::methos where time is spent so you can better determine where the delay is ocurring.

Help my computor says the card is full!! checking it says that OTHERS is 194 .
I am not familiar with the term "card". Is this a flash drive? What is the exact message? What is the path to the folder?
Take a picture of message & post here. see below for how.
Best to have greater than 2gig of free space. Many posters to these forums state that you need much more free space: 5 gig to 10 gig or 10 percent of you hd size.

Be careful when deleting files. A lot of people have trashed their system when deleting things.
Place things in trash. Reboot & run your applications. Empty trash.
Go after large files that you have created & know what they are. Do not delete small files that are in a folder you do not know what the folder is for. Anything that is less than a megabyte is a small file these days.
(1)
Empty the trash. Space isn't reclaimed until you empty the trash in three places!
The trash can...
-- in the dock
-- for iPhoto
-- with Mail
(2)
Run
OmniDiskSweeper
"The simple, fast way to save disk space"
OmniDiskSweeper is now free!
http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omnidisksweeper/download/
This will give you a list of files and folders sorted by size. Go after things you know that are big.

Why does my mac have 100 gb of "back up" and 90 gb of "other" memory used up when I have hardly anything on it. Is there any way to identify what those things are that is consuming so much memory?

I have 25 gb of music. 20 gb of movies. 5 gb of pictures. 10 gb of apps. 102 gb of "back up. and 85 gb of "other. which leaves less than 70 gb open on my harddrive.. Why? What is that almost 200 gb of memory? How Do i pinpoint it? I use time machine and an external harddrive to back up my files so what is that? any answers or ideas?

Do not worry about the backups. They will be deleted automatically after a week, or if your HD gets too full. See #30 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.
The "other" stuff is just that -- all sorts of things that don't fall into the few categories listed. The operating system, system work files, plus lots of your stuff like documents, mail, etc. See Lion's Storage Display

Why does my mac have to lockdown before playing music through the headset?

My mac has started to do this new thing, where it will not play play music through the headset i connected, until I lock the macbook down, and start it up again, with the headset plugged in.. I can change the volume while the headset is plugged in, and i didnt lock the mac down, but it just plays through the speakers. I dont know what to do?

See if SMC and PRAM resets solve the problem:

Why does my mac have issues with flash player videos

I was trying to watch a couple different videos last night for work and they wanted to use flash player.. however every time i tried to click on them to open them my macbook pro popped a message up saying that the flash player crashed that it would send a report to apple. how can i get pass this and fix it? i already tried downloading another flash player

Install Flash from here an try again
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Also download and run ALL the cleaning and maintenance aspects of the free OnyX and reboot.
http://www.titanium.free.fr/
OnyX won't hurt anything, it will clean out all the cache and other files that might be corrupted and causing your problems, they will get rebuilt and your problem may disappear.
Also if there is something else wrong, OnyX's checkers may catch a larger issue which you tell us here so we can recommend further actions based upon that information.
Always backup your data to a external drive, cd/dvd's, (in addiiton to TimeMachine if your using that) so whatever happens at least that's safe.

Why does the Mac App Store default back to the first page of results?

When I search in the MAS for any app and there are more than one page of results, while I am browsing pages 2 and up when I select an app to look at and go back to the search results (either by swiping on my trackpad OR clicking the back button) the list of pages defaults to the first page of results. Is this a bug or is there some setting somewhere that I can change to make it work right??

This is a user forum; whether or not anybody at Apple sees this is not known.
You could log a feature request with Apple via the bugreport tool, if you have access to that tool.

Why does it say my wifi is connected but the web page doesn't open?

I would be using the internet for an hour and then it disconnects but says it's still connected. I would have to turn the wifi off and turn it back on then reconnect for it to work. Should I make a genius bar appointment?

It's pretty tough to help if you don't provide any informaton about your system. Please complete your profile so we know the version of OS X and which iMac you have. Try some basics such as resetting your modem and router. Those two are frequent causes of issues.

You can find out what processes are loading your system by running Application Monitor (in Launchpad > Utilities if you're running Lion or Launchpad > Other under Mountain Lion). Select "All Processes". Sort the display by CPU% (click on the label of that column). What processes show over 10% CPU?
Also, when you click on the CPU button on the lower bar, what shows as your % idle? (Mine is showing about 98% just reading and posting here.)
If no process is causing the heat, you could have a hardware problem.

Why does my mac reboot on its own?

Why does my mac reboot on its own?

Oh den.thed... I saw your post this morning and I was so excited.... ran to the Mac and got to Energy Saver, and... the checkbox is already unchecked.
Long story, I'll make it short. Just got the Mac back after having the HDD replaced. (It stopped working after less than 500 hours.) This rebooting thing has been happening ever since I got the computer in 2010, and I was hoping it would coincidentally stop happening after having this crashed HDD replaced last week. No such luck. Still doing it, even after getting the computer back from Apple. Two of my kids have macbooks, have used the cr*p out of them, and have had very few problems (nothing big). I bought this Mac, to replace a dead Dell desktop that got very little use, and so far I am not sure I did the right thing. Really wish I could get this "automatic" rebooting thing fixed. (Reboots with no notice, while doing normal tasks - internet, word docs, etc.) Thanks again for your help. Let me know if I should try anything else.

Why does my Mac Book pro keep restarting

why does my Mac Book pro keep restarting and how can it be fixed

It would be nice if you could include a kernel panic log to verify that your problem is...
Mid-2010 15" MacBook Pros - the bad NVIDIA GPU
If you're having frequent kernel panics with your 15" mid-2010, or intermittent screen problems, the problem is, more than likely, the faulty NVIDIA GPU found in a number of those machines.
Here's just a sample of a kernel panic log that points to the faulty NVIDIA card:
Kernel Extensions in backtrace (with dependencies):
         com.apple.GeForce(6.4.0)@0x82ac4000->0x82b7afff
            dependency: com.apple.NVDAResman(6.4.0)@0x834a0000
            dependency: com.apple.iokit.IONDRVSupport(2.2.1)@0x82fd3000
            dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily(2.6.5)@0x7a802000
            dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOGraphicsFamily(2.2.1)@0x8301b000
         com.apple.nvidia.nv50hal(6.4.0)@0x83c05000->0x84019fff
            dependency: com.apple.NVDAResman(6.4.0)@0x834a0000
         com.apple.NVDAResman(6.4.0)@0x834a0000->0x8378dfff
            dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily(2.6.5)@0x7a802000
            dependency: com.apple.iokit.IONDRVSupport(2.2.1)@0x82fd3000
            dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOGraphicsFamily(2.2.1)@0x8301b000
Here's the "official" Apple take on the issue - but the very real kernel panics need not be preceded by 'Intermittent black screen or loss of video'... in fact, you might not experience any video problems at all. Although video problems can certainly be a portent of things to come…
So what can you do? Print out a copy of your kernel panic and a copy of the Knowledge Base article and take them, along with your machine, to your local Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. The unfortunate thing is that many people have passed the “three years from date of purchase” now and Apple is not honoring the free logic board replacement for many users. Some dealers seem to be making some exceptions for those past the three year mark, but don’t count on it…
Good luck,
Clinton
