Why is download so slow? on ITUNES 7?! I have Cable Modem!!

Had anyone noticed that the new ITUNES 7 is SOOO SLOW in downloading?? The videos used to download in less than a minute. NOW it is taking FOREVER for everything to download. And my computer is only 1 year old and I have Cable Modem - not slow dial up. Has anyone else had this problem? I usually LOVE software upgrades but I HATE the new ITUNES.
HELP anyone?

It doubful thats its your PC per se, alot of people are reporting the store being alittle on the slow side.
It won't last long, its just apple make all these changes 3-4 days ago, a week or 2 they will have it all str8.
You can overlook your network setup tho, make sure the connection isn't looping around thru ports on the router and slowing you down. I doubt thats it tho, iTUnes increased the resolution of there video, so in turn the files are bigger. This is why iTUnes now has a download manager in it so you can pause things when needed

Why is downloading movies from the iTunes store so slow?

why is downloading movies from the itunes store so slow?

Hi there
Many users seem to be experiencing this issue around the world (see thread https://discussions.apple.com/message/16981332#16981332) - my iTunes dowload last night showed 7 hours ETA for a 45 minute tv show. this morning I rebooted it and tried again, it is now taking 2 hours. An improvement in theory but still terrible. I don't know if it is internet connection but everything else I do on the internet seems to be running at normal pace.....
Not much help sorry but at least you can see you are not alone
Cheers

I recently downloaded Aperture 3 from itunes. I have a problem with faces.

I recently downloaded Aperture 3 from itunes. I have a problem with Faces.
In Faces Mode when a particular face is selected it is wrongly including, from the 11.5k photos in my Aperture library, people with different names and photos where people have deliberately not been named. This happens every few photos between the correctly named ones and makes Faces virtually unuseable.
I took my 27" imac 2.8 GHz Intel Core i5 to Apple in the Trafford Centre where a patient assistant, Andy spent 2 hours trying to resolve the problem to no avail.
In his attempts, he consolidated my iphoto library into Aperture and even reinstalled Aperture. He confirms I am using the programme properly.
Iphoto Faces works perfectly and is used regularly by family, grandchildren etc,. I want to move away from iIphoto and use just Aperture as it is intended.
Can anybody help.

I have tried all aspects of the troubleshooting basics including the 1st aid section except the rebuild data basis.
The Apple assistant at the shop suggested I contact Apple as he couldn't resolve this issue.
His laptop also suffered a snag I also experience where the left & right hand pointers intermittently stop moving through the photos. I have to come out of Faces and back again for it to resume operating correctly.

Why is download sooooooooo slow? Checked internet speed - 6.5Mbs; seems OK and yet movie is going to take 2 hours to start. What sort of BS is that?

Why is download of movie so slow? Internet speed good - 6.5Mbs. Paid for movie. But told 2 hrs to start. Never have had this problem, why now?

    1. 6.5 Mb per sec. is slow for streaming video.
    2. That speed only means that you COULD get that speed not that you WILL get that speed.
    3. Have you done any tests to see what speeds you are actually getting, or what the quality of that connection is? packet loss, slow DNS, etc. etc.
    4. Even if you did have a "fast" connection that does not mean you get a great connection to every site. So the if the connection between you and iCloud/iTunes is bottle necked you will not get much though put regardless of what connection speed you pay for.
   5. Going to guess you are using WiFi which never gives reliable usable or performance for streaming video.
   6. It is also possible that iCloud was just over whelmed at that instance and could not provide much bandwidth.
   7. Your ISP may also be throttling your network traffic from sites like NetFlix and iCloud.

Why is finder so slow? iTunes also?

Ok starting to reconsider my choice of buying this MacBook Pro... oh yeah WITH RETINA. I am running Mavericks 10.9.5 still. Didn't see the point of upgrading to Yosemite.
Everytime I try to listen to songs in finder it's slow, in iTunes it's also slow. Switching between songs is so **** laggy. I mean I'm not doing anything complex, just trying to listen to music smoothly. Finder just seems like complete crap, even when it comes to loading files, changing names, etc. This is a brand new MacBook Pro w/ Retina. For the $$$ I expected it to be atleast smooth. Not so **** irritating. I mean that's what I thought Apple was known for, its refinement? My Sony Vaio was **** smoother and didn't make me want to smash it. The lag is making everything I want to do take considerably longer, wasting my time.
Anyone know what's up?

The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

Why are downloads so slow

When I tried to download the new firefox the download speed never got above 50kper second

WELL WITH 15MPS I BET YOU ARE RUNNING SLOW!
I would restart the router * any networking gear you have* and maybe the ipad if it is still slow. then do the following..

Where is the download again info on itunes? i have tracks that skip

how do you find the place to download free a track that is messed up on the itunes download?

Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the broken tracks from your iTunes library, close and then reopen iTunes, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked.
If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

I am getting error 3259 when I try download iOS 5 on iTunes? I have used 3 different computers as well.

In the past 4 days I have tried downloading iOS 5 and keep getting this error. I have even tried it on 3 different computers. I have the latest iTunes 10.6.3.25 and it starts downloading, when it comes to about 200mb it bombs out and gives me the error. What a waste of 200mb of cap!!!!
Please help!!!

I would have googled "itunes error 3259" before I wasted all that time and bandwidth. And would then have most likely followed this link: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297

Why does my internet slow WAY down when I have camera wirelessly connected

This is a great camera for my purpose, but for some reason it is slowing my internet download to crawling speed when I have it connected wirelessly. Btw don't know if having it done wired does any good.
It used to work fine (without slowing down my internet) until I added a second wvc210 camera, so I removed the second camera and its still sloooow. If I have it disabled (unplugged) then my internet is fine.
Any suggestions? Thanks for any advice.

Is there a way to stream movies or mirror them from my iphone onto my ipad screen? My iPad memory is too small to download the movies from iTunes but I have them downloaded on my iphone.

My ipad is only 16gb and just about full but my iphone is 64gb and has plenty of space. I have bought movies on iTunes and have been watching them on my iphone, but this seems a bit silly as I have an ipad with a larger screen. Is there a way to mirror or stream the movies from my iphone to my ipad?

Thx - the videos are on my Ipad - that is the problem - they are taking up all the storage and there is no room for anything else. Is there any place I can store them so that I can access them from time to time, but not have they use up all the space on the IPad? Sounds like the cloud is out...

HT4061 why after downloading the new IOS does my phone have now need a passcode and it didn't before and I don't have one cause ive never used one

I need to know ASAP because I don't really want to restore to factory settings

Not sure if this applies to your region, but in Australia the SIM password is often written on the "credit card" sized plastic card that the SIM was provided to you with the phone by the telco. Do you still have this? It could be in the iPhone box?

Hi I've download an album of iTunes and played it quite often and now I've noticed there is only a few tracks highlited and the rest of the tracks won't play can anyone help .

Hi I've downloaded an album of iTunes and played it quite often but I've noticed today that 3tracks are highlited to play and all the rest are not can any one point me in the right direction on why this as happened .

Do you use iTunes Match? I don't use it, but in case somebody else joins in that might be important to know. I don't know how iTM affects this type of thing on the iPad.
My suggestion would be to delete the album and download it again, if you can't get the songs to play. Many iTunes purchase can be downloade again for free when using the same Apple ID and if the item is still available in iTunes and the free downloads feature is available where you live.
This will tell you what content you can download again for free where you live.
iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match Availability - Support - Apple
I am not a big downloader of Music from iTunes, but I have one song that gives me fits and I just delete it and download it again. Not the ideal situation, but it works.
