Why is Internet on my MacBook so slow and not on my iPad?

Hello. I've recently upgraded my Internet connection to a faster one. The strange thing is that my iPad has no problems with it (everything works smooth and speed tests give good results), bt my MacBook seems to have something that limits its Internet connection. Tests give me about 300Kb, and apps like App Store or Mail take ages to download content. Safari is no exception. What could be causing this?
Thank you in advance.

Is there a way to know what Apps are using Internet and how much they are using it? I ask this because I found something about my problem. I created a Parental Control account on my MacBook and only allowed the basic functions. Logged in, opened Safari, tested Internet speed and guess what? Yes, full speed. Then I went back to my account, opened Safari as well, tested the speed and I kept having the same problem: not even 1Mb fast.
So, does anyone know how to check Internet activity on Mountain Lion and how to, somehow, restrict Apps from using it?
Many thanks.

    Something is very wrong with your system, you need to try repairing the hard drive if possible.  See:
    http://pondini.org/OSX/DU6.html
    If that doesn't work, you'll probably need to reinstall the system.

  • Why will iMovie allow editing of some songs and not others?

    I've downloaded a number of songs directly from iTunes onto my ipad2. Why can I edit one song I downloaded and not others in I movie? I don't get it. These songs are from the same album, so if its a copyright issue what's the deal? Help me please!

    If just some of the tracks on the album are giving you that message, that suggests that those tracks are damaged.
    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • Why is the stub generated from the implementation and not the interface?

    Why is the stub generated from the implementation and not the interface?

    Because if a remote server object implements multiple remote interfaces, its stub must implement all the same remote interfaces. The only way to know which interfaces to implement is to examine the server object class.

    You have not indicated which OS or which music program you have so I have listed a program called Airfoil to try for both Windows and Mac - it may work for you

    Once iOS 5 is released this fall you won't really need a computer to sync to, especially with the introduction of iCloud. http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/

    Why do some of my apps only work ón my iphone and not ón my iPad ?

    That should work on the iPad. Basic app troubleshooting from Apples support site. Items 1, 2 & 3 should not apply to your situation, but I posted the link at the end if you want to read them.
    4. Restart the application
    If the issue affects only a single app, try closing just that app:
    Press the Home button to return to the Home screen.
    Double-tap the Home button to display recent apps.
    Tap and hold the affected app until the red minus appears.
    Tap the red minus to quit the app.
    Press the Home button, then restart the app.
    5. Restart your device
    Hold the Sleep/Wake button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the Sleep/Wake button to turn it back on.
    6. Reinstall the affected application
    Remove the application from your device and reinstall it.
    Touch and hold any application icon on the Home Screen until the icons start to wiggle.
    Tap the "x" in the corner of the application you want to delete.
    Tap Delete to remove the application and all of its data from your device.
    Press the Home button.
    Go to the App Store.
    Search for the application and then download it again.
    Note: If it is a paid app, ensure you are using the iTunes account you purchased the app with originally. If it is not, you will be charged for the app again. For more information regarding downloading previously purchased items, see this article.
    7. If the issue is still unresolved
    If you continue to experience the issue, contact the developer of the application for further assistance.

    ULTIMATE Video Editing Workstation PC Computer "How To" Build Guide - YouTube   43min in...
    this is just one video, but i've seen others where they use quadro and gtx together. he runs davinci resolve in video, but not premiere. there is an icon for premiere in the taskbar, so they probably do use it. with nvidia, its possible to go into the control panel and assign only one of the video cards to be used for cuda processing.  if just need 10bit out, there are dedicated cards that are designed specifically for display only and shouldn't conflict with a gtx and premiere. some of these display out cards are cheaper than an old cheap quadro or firepro too. ADK has several different kinds, so they should be able to set it up.

  • Why is my 8gb ram macbook is slow when using the internet compared to my old laptop?

    i just purchased my macbook last week and i've noticed that using the internet has been quite bad at home. It seems to run pretty fast when using my schools wifi however it just doesn't make sense that my old laptop would still run faster than my new 8gb ram macbook. My internet plan is with telstra -50gb ADSL modem and it promises speeds up to 20 mbps and i'm only getting 4.11 mbps...

    Hold down the option key and select the Wi-Fi menu in the menu bar. What values are shown for the following?
    PHY Mode
    Channel
    Security
    RSSI
