Why is my Chrome browser so slow with my MacBook Pro?

My browser speed has become painfully slow. Not always......but a lot. I use CHROME most of the time. Already checked with my internet provider and the signal is strong on my wireless. "Cleaned up" where I could.......but still have a very slow browser. Any suggestions?

When web browsing a web page the download frequently gets stuck half to 3/4 done. If I click in the address bar ( stops the download) then click on the screen (puts the refresh arrow at end of address bar) then click refresh arrow then 7/10 times the page loads immediately. It is as though the browser is waiting for something that is not being delivered and it made me wonder about iAds.
I have tried
- clearing the cache (settings, safari, clear history, clear cookies and data)
- deleting website data (settings, safari, advanced, website data, delete all),
- deleted files (movies etc) to free up space,
- have done a hard reset,
- have done a settings reset (settings, general, reset, reset all settings),
- backup, reset and restore from backup,
all made no difference.
I was also having the same problem on my iphone 3gs, my wifes new iPad and her iPhone 4gs, I then turned off iAds on the iPad (settings, location,services, system services, location based iAds) and it made some difference but only seemed to reduce the problem by 20%
I also have Microsoft computers on the network that do not have the "stuck browser" problem.

Why my iPhone 5 is not Comparable with my MacBook Pro when try to play music by Bluetooth can anyone help

Hi katherine cordelia,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If your iPhone is not being recognized in iTunes on your Windows 8 computer, I would recommend reading over and performing the troubleshooting steps in the attached article.

Express very slow with new MacBook Pro

I have a 2.4Ghz MacBook Pro, a Mac Mini and an AirPort Express. When I connect to this network with a 1st gen Core Duo (802.11G) machine, transfer rates between computers run at typical G speeds. When I connect with the 2.4 Ghz machine, transfer rates between it and the Mini are much, much slower - less than 20% as fast as the 802.11G MBPro.
All machines have updates and show four bars of signal strength. I have no idea why the new MBPro is so dramatically slow.
MBPro Mac OS X (10.4.9) 2.4 Ghz

Why will some CDs not work properly with my Macbook Pro with Retina display?

I have the external CD drive for the Macbook Pro with Retina display, but I'm finding that some CDs will not run their applications properly. However, on the older editions of the Macbook Pro (for example, on the 13"), the programs run fine. Is there something I can download to fix this problem?

When the MBP-R does not run CD applications "properly", what does it do?
Is it possible that the applications that do not run properly are incompatible with Mountain Lion? For example, might they be old PowerPC applications that relied on Rosetta to run on Intel CPUs?

TimeCapsule works fast with one macbook, but slow with a macbook pro

Hey there,
i have a new time capsule 2gb, set up as a sole wireless router in my network. My macbook pro works fine with it but it needs about 3 hours for copying 40 gigabyte of data to the time capsule. Yesterday a friend came over with her macbook and was able to copy the same amount in about 50 minutes. I can't figure out any difference in the two systems. Can you help?
Thanks.

Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.
You might try measuring the signal and noise levels that each Mac sees using these instructions:

One possible explanation might be that your Mac has a metal case while the other may have a plastic case.

Why don't my iPhone headphones work with my Macbook pro?

I just got a 13 in Macbook Pro with a retina screen. My sound woks great from the internal speakers, but when I plug my iPhone headphones in and try to play music they just make a loud popping noise and then buzz. I have checked system preferences, the headphones are recognized and all the settings look correct. I have also tried resetting PRAM and SMC. Do I need to go to the Apple store? Is there a better fix?? Are these headphones just not compatible???

Are you sure? According to the Apple website it claims the headphone supports Apple iPhone headset with microphone.

Lion slow with new MacBook Pro 15"

I just bought a MacBook Pro 15" 2.2 GHz intel Core i7 4GB DDR3 RAMwith an AMD Radeon HD 6750M with 1GB of GDDR5. The laptop is brand new and I'm getting these hiccups in iTunes. Also when I'm watching any movie or video on iTunes I get skipped scenes as well. My Laptop is uptodate its running 10.7.1. In Safari it takes forever to load and I know its not my internet connection. I see the beach ball often and iTunes is a pain to work with. I remember it used to run smooth now its just a pain in the *** to use. Can anyone help me?

DO NOT use Tech Tool Pro on your Intel Mac. It is only a PPC version. TTP has not released an Intel version yet.
TechTool Pro hasn't been, but the Intel version of TechTool Deluxe was released sometime in the last few days. I couldn't say if that's the version Nancy is using, of course, but it is finally available for download (with instructions to create a bootable CD) for those who have enrolled an AppleCare Protection Plan.

Why won't my Apple keyboard pair with my Macbook Pro? Everything's discoverable...the light is blinking...the Macbook pro picks up other bluetooth...It's not paired with anything else?

Hello,
My wireless keyboard was paired with my iPad for a while, with no problem. Today I've unpaired it and tried to add it to my MBP (which I've done plenty of times in the past with sucess) but it's just not discovering it today.
Bluetooth is on, my laptop is discoverable
The MBP is picking up my phone, the iPad can see the MBP
The keyboard is turned on and blinking
Whether I try to 'set up new bluetooth keyboard' from Sys Preferences or 'set up bluetooth device' from Bluetooth menu, nothing happens.
Any ideas?
I've tried removing batteries, retarting the laptop..... Why should I try next?
Thanks in advance everyone

1. Go to Settings > Bluetooth and turn off Bluetooth on the device.
2. Hold Power button of your keyboard until the light stops blinking.
3. On the Mac, go to System Preferences > Keyboard > Set Up Bluetooth Keyboard.
4. Turn on the keyboard. If it doesn't connect to the Mac, press any key of the wireless keyboard.
5. When the keyboard appears on your Mac, choose Continue

Why can't I use my archos with my macbook pro, why can't I use my archos with my macbook pro

I have a archos 10.1 and I want to transfer movies to it from my external hard drive, but it does not appear on my macbook pro

How are you connecting it? I don't know that you might not need an app for it to be recognized on a Mac... iPads are easy... other tablets, not so simple.
I assume that it will connect to your router via wifi... have you tried to discover it on your network from your Mac (as you can do with a PC)?
Sorry,
Clinton

I would love to find a solution after 5 yrs of using this program... U-Jean

This Problem has been occurring before 2011 according to the link below....... *** Apple!!!

Why is live and video streaming so slow on my MacBook Pro?

why is live and video streaming so slow on my MacBook Pro?

Hi redngreen,
Does this happen with Wi-Fi and ethernet?
Is your network slow with other activities?
There's a section in this article for Wi-Fi network seems slow. Some of it applies to Ethernet as well.

i already reinstall the software many times and still the same i dont know what is happening is there is somebody who can help me please im will waiting

There are any number of possibilies... you could have problems with runaway applications, causing your machine to overheat and setting the fans off, you could have bad fan sensors, etc.
Open Activity Monitor (Applications>Utilities) and see if you have any apps that may be hogging the CPU. Call back.
