Why is icloud slow

Why is icloud so slow on my pc?  How can I fix this?

I posted the first question of this discussion thread. "Why is iCloud so slow?" While it is still an issue, I have found that it has improved somewhat. As before, when you try to reply, forward, or create an email it takes forever for the new pane to come up! But I have discovered that while it is searching (the agonizingly long wait, staring at the little hypnotic circle going round and round), if I click on the address bar, it pops right up. This has helped tremendously. I might not dump iCloud after all.
Now, if I could just get my curser to stop jumping around while I type emails in iCloud, I would be grateful.

  • Why is iCloud so sluggish lately?

    Was just trying to send an email from icloud.com on my iMac and one of my two small mp3 attachments took forever to attach and load.  Then, when they were finally loaded, I hit "send" and I got a prompt stating that the email could not be sent and that I had to delete the attachments and try again.    This has happened several times and I am still unable to send the email. 
    On the iPad end, sometimes when I go to the native iOS mail app, I receive a prompt saying "Cannot Get Mail. The user name or password for 'iCloud' is incorrect."  However, my password is indeed correct.  I have even gone to settings and reentered it, received all the checkmarks, gone to the mail app imediately thereafter, and STILL received this prompt.
    Why so many iCloud issues lately?

    what is cookies.sqlite and why does it slow the start up of mozilla by a minute or so. I found it and deleted it,fixed the problem, but it reappears every time I restart mozilla.

    AVG reports these sqlite cookies each time firefox starts. they usually belong to tribalfusion or some other tracker. How do I block them in the first place. I thought firefox is a safe browser. Did not have this problem until I upgraded to 3.6.

  • Why is java slower than C and C++

    Hi Guys:
    I would like to know why Java is slower than C and C++ in terms of compilation speed...
    Does it have to do with the fact that Java compiles to byte code first and then the JVM translates byte code to machine code which your processor can understand. whereas C and C++ compiles directly to machine code...
    Any ideas on that,...let me know..

    It's not necessarily. I would suggest that it always is; whencomparing
    specific tasks.I would suggest that is never is (significantly)
    when non-trivial and non-specialized applicationsare
    involved. Requirements and design always have a
    much greater impact.There's no doubt that the design is the most
    important
    aspect when writing a program, but assuming those
    things
    are equal, the fact is that a c program will be
    faster.Yes, but given the fact that there is almost zero chance that the requirements, design and implementation will be optimal, it means that the real differences between the languages are insignificant compared to the real difference caused by the other factors.
    In the theorectical world C/C++ is faster. In the real world, most of the time, it is not significant.

  • Why does Telstra slow uploads speed down

    I have had ongoing issues with my internet connection over the last 18 mouths.Having a upload speed of 450/650 Kbps  very slow no good for gaming an down load of 8/11Mbps down load if more than I needTo the point I have spent good dollars try to insuring   that the infrastructures and the Asset Integrity with in house are in best condition this includes the replacement and work listed belowReplacement of the Wi-Fi system to a Cat.6 cabling at a cost of $2,300Replacement of the modem with a high speed 1G port modem at cost of $ 475Replacement of the fly-lead for the Telstra house connection to the new wall socket a cost of $360Total cost of $3135 this spend was braced on Telstra recommendation as the problem was with my part of the connection after a large number of call to my internet provider I at last had a appointment with a Telstra Tec to carry line testing and fault finding .At this point if no fault was found  I was the be billed at $60 per 15min or part off and travel cost as I live in Bullsbrook WA this may I high . Lucky for me a fault was found in the exchange and reconfigured and the speed and the Exchange improved   to 22Mbps down and 15 Mbps up an outstanding numbers >test at the house 15Mbps and so 5 / 7 Mbps loss for the Exchange to house don’t to good but still very happy with it BUT the upload was 650 kbps /750Kbps and please remember this testing was carry out by Telstra with good equipment so at this point I ask why the upload was so slow? After spending over $2000 and lot of time on the phone only to be told that Telstra slow the upload speed down so the max you can get is 1 Mbps and the only way you can increase this is by paying for a business line but you still may not get any more than 1MbpsThis is only a very small part of the story SO I LIKE TO ASK WHY IS TELSTRA SLOWING ME DOWNIf you like to know more please let me know

    Hi bigdave618, 
    The simple answer is, that's the way the system and hardware is designed, all ISP's are the same. Uploads are limited to around 1Mbps. If you wish to get higher upload speeds you can see if Cable Broadband or NBN are available in your area as these systems allow for higher upload speeds.
    Upload speeds are generally slower than download speeds because of the fact that most internet connected equipment is asymmetric. Asymmetric means that any one packet of data can either go in, or out, but not both ways at the same time. Since most internet users are receiving more data than sending, the internet connected equipment has shifted the higher majority of the signals to go toward downloading.
    If you wish to find out more about ADSL I have added a link to a Wikipedia article below along with the link to the NBN and Telstra websites so you can check to see if Cable Broadband or NBN is available in your area.

  • Why is icloud not listed in my updated macbook pro's systems preferences, there is mobileme instead?

    I use a Samsung Android, two mac book pros, a large desktop mac, a Kindle Fire, and recently  bought a preowned iphone 5; want to synch it with my mac book pro. I have an icloud email but nothing from my macbook is connected with it except maybe itunes. icloud is not the way I sign on when pening my personal macbook. But the only id I could use to get into the iphone was my icloud id. I want to get "Everything" together but when attempting to set up icloud in my personal macbk at system pref.s there is no icloud listed only the ancient "Mobilme" . I have done all the updates, why is icloud not in there and what can I do to set it up?

    If you are seeing mobile me, then you are running 10.6.8 or earlier.  iCloud came out in 10.7.  So your device "may" be updated as far as it can, but it is not far enough to use iCloud.  You can try to upgrade to 10.10 (which is free), or if your system is not capable, you may have to pay for lion or mountain lion.
    HTH.

  • Why my icloud mail fails to deliver

    Why my icloud outgoing mail returns as failed to deliver? This is the message: Delivery Notification: Delivery has failed

    Hello, Oscar.
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Here is the best troubleshooting resource to go through when experiencing issues with iCloud mail. 
    If you experience issues sending or receiving mail on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    Check the System Status page to find out whether any known issues are affecting iCloud Mail.
    Make sure that you're connected to the Internet: try opening a webpage such as apple.com in Safari on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
    Go to iCloud.com on a Mac or PC to verify that you can receive email for your iCloud account.
    Make sure that Mail is turned on in Settings > iCloud.
    Make sure that Push is turned on for your device in Settings > Mail, Contacts, and Calendars > Fetch New Data. Then send an email to your account to verify that Push is working correctly.
    Make sure that Push is turned on for your iCloud account in Settings > Mail, Contacts, and Calendars > Fetch New Data. If you are using iOS 6, tap Advanced. Then Tap your iCloud account and make sure that Push is turned on. If you have multiple iCloud Mail accounts set up on your device, Push can be used only with one account at a time. Make sure that Push is turned on for your primary iCloud Mail account.
    Turn your device off and back on.
    If the issue persists, turn off each of the settings in steps 4, 5, and 6 above, then turn them back on. If that does not help, follow these instructions to delete the iCloud account from your device, then add the account back:
    Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, and Calendars.
    Tap your iCloud account.
    Tap Delete Account. If you store Contacts, Calendar, or Bookmarks data in iCloud, you will be given the option to keep that data.
    On the Mail, Contacts, and Calendars screen, tap Add Account, then tap iCloud to begin setting up your iCloud account again. If data from your device is stored in iCloud, you will be given the option to merge that data with the data on your device.

  • Why, with iCloud, do we continue receiving the same email on multiple computers?

    Why, with iCloud, do we continue receiving the same email on multiple computers? Is there a way of stopping this?

    If those multiple computers are all setup to use the same iCloud account, then it is working exactly as intended. That's what iCloud does. Keeps your email, contacts, calendars, bookmarks, tasks etc. in sync across all devices/computers that the same iCloud account is setup on.
    If you want independent email on each device/computer, you need to setup independent email accounts for each device/computer.

  • Why start iCloud drive when Yosemite is not ready? Once accidental start iCloud drive, no downgrade option?

    When IOS8 is release there is a simple switch to start iCloud Drive.  It is a nightmare.  My iWork field can no longer be sync with my Mac and Mac Air.
    There is no downgrade method to resume the usual iCloud support.  Yosemite is not ready now.
    There should be a warning for anyone who may not know the link between iCloud drive and Yosemite.
    Why start iCloud drive when Yosemite is not ready for download?

    Give Apple feedback on this at http://www.apple.com/feedback
    Unfortunately the iOS 8 release was made fully functional even though some of the functions are not useable at this time.  That should have been clearer so the user knew not to activate a function that would not work fully.

  • Why was iCloud.msi added to iTunes 11.1.4 ?

    The windows installer for iTunes 11.1.4 contains iCloud.msi.
    The previous versions did not include this.
    The included version of iCloud.msi works only in Windows-Vista,
    not in Windows-XP, not in Windows-7.
    Apple does offer an iCloud software for Windows 7 for download,
    but it is not required to use iTunes.
    Why is iCloud included in iTunes?
    Why is it a version that does not work in Windows 7?

    Maro,
    I'm running VISTA on my PC. None of the suggestions solved the problem. I uninstalled iTunes removing all suggested files from another post and reinstalled iTunes 11.1.3 and removed the iTunes Ibarra from my iPhone Remote. I restarted the computer, iPhone & router. I added the iTunes library to my iPhone remote. I didn't get an icon on the menu bar of the iTunes on the PC but a dialog came up asking for the code which was on my phone. I typed in the code and the library showed up on my iPhone Remote. I selected it and got an error message that it couldn't connect. This is extremely weird and frustrating. What should I do now?

    Why is atv slow to buffer after connecting with cat5 cable

    Update on some things I have tried
    As I am not sure the cause, I have been reading and trying different things, last thing was to set the interfaces to Duplex Full
    I did this on both the Ethernet ports on the routers, and both of the Fast Ethernet ports being used on the switch, but has not changed the speed that PC1 is getting.
    Also turned on CEF on both routers

  • Why is SCP slow realtive to using winSCP on windows?

    Why is SCP slow realtive to using winSCP on windows(3MB/s on mac and 11 MB/s on windows)?

    You are not having my exact same problem, but try this:
    1. Browse to "C:\Users\<YourUserName>\AppData\Roaming" in Windows Explorer.
    2. Rename the "Apple Computer" folder to "Apple Computer-old".
    3. Start iTunes
    4. Close iTunes
    5. Copy the file "iTunesPrefs.xml" from "C:\Users\<YourUserName>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer-old\iTunes"
    6. Paste the old "iTunesPrefs.xml" into the new "Apple Computer\iTunes" folder iTunes just created (not the one you renamed) under "C:\Users\<YourUserName>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer-old\iTunes"
    7. Overwrite the new iTunesPrefs.xml with your old copy of the file.
    If you don't care about losing your iTunes preferences then you can just do step 2. You can always go back and grab things from the old folder later if you realize you wanted to have your EQ settings, individual track gains, etc...
