Why is my iphone 3g slower since software upgrade...

I know other people who have complained about the same thing that the 3g is slower since the software upgrade a few months back. Why? Everything on the phone is a tad slower since the upgrade. Weren't upgrades designed to improve the performance, not decrease it?

are you up to date with the siftware?
do you have a lot of memory left?
have you tried a hard reset? a reset network settings? a restore?
all can be done to try to resolve the issue, try those first before giving up

Why is my MacBook really slow since uploading Yosemite

Why is my MacBook really slow since installing Yosemite?

If you have less than 4 GB of memory (not 8 GB) as shown in the About This Mac window, Yosemite won't perform well. Otherwise, see below.
When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.

Why are the fonts so small since I upgraded? I have difficulty reading folder names even when I wear my reading glasses.

Kirby:
. What version of OS X?
10.6.8 - latest Snow Leopard.
. How are you determining the size of the Vault?
Using Finder: "Size 5.8 MB on disk".
. What exactly did you do that you describe as "I decided to set up a Vault to back up to the Time Machine external hard drive.". In general, Time Machine should be on a drive dedicated to it (that is, with nothing else on it).
Oops, right: I meant Time Capsule. Time Machine is backing up to the Time Capsule, but I thought I could also use the Time Capsule as an external hard drive as well as a target for Time Machine. So, this is a non-no?
. How many images show up when you select "Photos" from near the top of the Library tab of the Inspector and filter using the Filter Rule "File Status" with the argument "Referenced"?
1. Thanks for getting me to learn Aperture's "filtering" (Command-F). Cool.
2. No images. Aha. So, do this mean all the masters are in the iPhoto library?
But, using Finder:
iPhoto Library: 18.2 GB 8,014 items
Aperture Library.aplibrary: 20.6 GB 7,945 which would be right: I did some deleting after importing from iPhoto
Aperture Vault: 5.8 MB

Mid 2009 macbook slow since yosemite upgrade

I am getting a little tired of the spinning beach ball, my formerly well performing macbook is so slow since I upgraded it.
I have 4Gb ram, activity monitor suggests I am not low on that.
It is particularly slow when I start up anything new; when an email comes in the whole thing grinds to a halt.
3rd party programs like Chrome seem to be sucking the life out of it, I have checked it is up to date and it is.
Is this a common experience and what have others done to speed things up?
System spec: Yosemite version 10.10, processor 2.13 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4Gb SDRAM
15Gb disk space free.
I have repaired disk permissions.
Maura

The large number of problems with System items looks suspicious: I'd strongly suggest a reinstall of Yosemite. (Make sure that you have a backup of all your files; e.g. a Time Machine backup.)

Why is my iPhone so slow

Why is my iPhone 3G so slow. I deleted all pics and messages but it's still slow. When answering a call the slider bar won't move, it takes about 3 or 4 attempts. HELP! It's driving me insane.

Have you done any of the basic troubleshooting steps discussed in the User Guide?

Why is my iPod so slow since ios5

Why is my iPod so slow after I updated to ios5.

first turn off iCloud, as much as we all love it, it makes out devices really slow and it tends to make the home screen freeze after unlocking at times. next you want to limit the things in both spotlight, and the apps in your notification center. turning off location services is also a good way to cut down on memory usage and so is removing the weather and stock widget for the notification center.
these things will speed up your device, but the most important to remove out of all of these is iCloud, the others are just more suggestions(:
also remove unwanted apps running in the background by double tapping the button, holding on an app until it goes into toggle mode, and click the red minus button to stop it from taking up memory in the background...
this will 100% speed up your device and get rid of unwanted bugs/glitches(:

Why does my iphone lose signal since upgrading to ios7

Since I upgraded to ios7, my iphone 5 constantly loses signal. It does so just about every 10-15 minutes. I have tried reseting my network settings, I switch to airplane mode, I do a hard reset. And nothing works. Prior to upgrading I never had this problem, now its constant. I am going to try to get a new sim card, but since this only started when I upgraded (almost the exact moment), I dont see that fixing it. I have to try to resend almost every text message, and safari pages never load. I have even been trying for days to post this question, but finally gave up and used my computer. I would really appreciate any help

Perfect.
With a iPhone keyboard lag since installed iOS7,
thanks to pvonk who said :
"Settings>General>Reset>all settings"
and it's go on very well....

Why is my iPhone is slow, laggy, unresponsive.

How come my iPhone has slow texting, sometimes unresponsive touch screen interface, slow OS and occasional freezes. Sometimes when I start an application it freezes and a little static happens and then the Apple logo pops up and it's all normal after like 30 seconds. I am trying to reset it and crap and can someone give me an explanation. Also, when does the next firmware update come out, it's been at 2.0 for a while and I want them to fix some of these issues that I presume everyone has been experiencing thus far.

I too am experiencing these problems with safari tending to crash about 10 times a day. More frustrating and something that needs to be cured as a matter of urgency is the text lag that happens at least 2-3 times day, this is a serious issue with the iPhone 3g that renders the basic functions of the phone inoperable. There is nothing worse than typing a paragraph into a forum such as this and have to watch characters appear 2-3 seconds after they were typed, then to hit backspace once only to have to sit and watch while your phone freezes you out and proceeds to delete every word you've typed and subsequently crash out of safari again. The touch steen keyboard is paramount to iPhones sucess as you have no alternative but to use it. Apple needs to get the finger out and fix whatever ram issue is causing this lag, and quickly. I have seen reports of this issue on other forums aswell

IPod Touch skips, stutters, glitches through songs since software upgrade!

Hi everyone,
*Since I upgraded my iPod Touch* to the latest available software update +(for the 1st Gen is 3.1.3)+, it has become *unable to properly play any music encoded above 128kbps*. Before the upgrade, my iPod could play music encoded in any higher bitrates like a champ! All the way to 320kbps, variable, even Apple Lossless format used to play flawlessly.
Suddenly after the last *firmware update*, most of the songs in my iPod Touch would *skip, glitch and garble, making electronic glitches and annoying noises* for no apparent reason. On occasion, the iPod would even *add several second of silence in the middle of random songs*. It's bizarre!
It definitely took me a while to figure it out, and spent weeks testing and researching what could be the problem. It was truly driving me nuts! The result of all these tests was clear: the *iPod Touch now CHOKES on any music file encoded higher than 128 kbps ACC*. Truly pathetic for such an expensive little jukebox. Even the early MP3 players I owned 10 years ago were able to play variable rate MP3 files without a glitch. *_This is a major bug that needs to be solved_*.
For those interested, I did the following tests through my weeks of research to find out the culprit to this problem:
- - - Reinstalled the device software
- - - Reformatted the device, then updated the software
- - - Uninstalled all apps, reinstalled and tested my music after reinstalling each app
- - - Disabled Wi-Fi (no difference)
- - - Copied over my music library from scratch, several times (it was painful)
- - - Reformatted a few albums in different bitrates, from 96kbps, all the way to 320kbps, both in constant and variable rates, and tested them one by one. This took days.
In the end, there is one thing that was consistently clear: *any songs encoded over 128kbps would skip, glitch and sound corrupted. Time after time*. All those music files I had encoded at higher rates +(192 kbps, variable 240 kbps and beyond)+ would make the iPod choke.
There is one temporary solution to this mess, but it involves reducing the quality of your music files: The only way I can now play my music collection in my iPod Touch without skips and glitches is by downconverting my files to the now *obsolete 128kbps*. Only when I converted my music to 128kbps, the annoying skips and glitches stopped. For an audiophile like myself, this was an absolutely painful decision, as I can tell the *obvious loss in quality and nuance in my music files since i had to downconvert them*.
Funny: this skipping problem *also affects any files purchased from iTunes* +(encoded at 240 kbps variable rate)+. Should I ask for my money back, Apple?
I find this irritating and painful, since *the ONE THING the iPod is supposed to do well* (aside from apps, games, and web browsing) *is to PLAY AUDIO AND MUSIC FILES*.
I spent a lot of money on this machine, and until recently it worked like magic; I just wished it played music again like it's supposed to. It's what the iPod was built to do. *Apple: Please fix the software!*
I wonder if there's a forum where I could post my detailed findings, so Apple engineers can take note of this *MAJOR BUG*.
PS: I have recently learned this is a very common bug, and tons of people are reaching out telling me they are experiencing the same annoying problems. Furthermore, *this seems to affect not just the 1st Gen, but ALL generations of the iPod Touch*. It's a *widespread software issue* that was not properly addressed in the latest software upgrade. I'm starting to worry about Apple's quality assurance process.

Hi everyone. Thanks to a tip in another forum, I think I had a breakthrough regarding this problem. I have the strong suspicion it's not the software for the iPod Touch, but instead, the problem comes from *iTunes and how it handles USB 2.0 transfers*.
To make a long story short, all your *music that's encoded above 128 kbps gets corrupted when you transfer it to your Touch from iTunes through your USB 2.0 connection*. That's where the problem is!
I performed this simple test:
*PART 1 - WIFI*
- I connected my iPod Touch via Wi-Fi to the iTunes Store. Bought an album encoded at a very high bitrate (Coldplay's "Viva la Vida", encoded at 256KBPS).
- Downloaded the Coldplay album directly to my iPod Touch via Wi-Fi.
- Tested every song in the album, and they all played flawlessly.
*PART 2 - USB 2.0*
- Now, I erased the Coldplay album from my iPod Touch.
- Connected my iPod Touch to my computer, and downloaded the album again via iTunes. I copied the very same album to my iPod Touch, this time using the USB 2.0 connection.
- I tested every song in the album. Guess what: most of them are corrupted, skipping, glitching, making garbled noises.
I think a reached a minor "eureka" moment. *It's not the iPod Touch software: It's iTunes, and how iTunes deals with your USB 2.0 connection*.
Now, I'm not an engineer, and I don't know how to fix this problem. I wonder if there's anyone out there there that knows why high bitrate files get corrupted during the file transfer. Hope anyone can shed some additional light on this issue, so we can find a solution.

External firewire 800 Iomega HD too slow since Lion Upgrade

Hi all,
Since my upgrade to OSX Lion im having the issue that my external Iomega HD is too slow to even playback my song (only audio files, About 9 Tracks of them). I removed all 3rd party plugins but the issue still occurs.
Is anyone experiencing the same issue? Any ideas on how to resolve it?
System:
iMac Middle of 2010
4GB 1333 Mhz DDR 3 Ram
External Harddrive is a iomega 1TB firewire 800 disk.
With Snow leopard it worked well... Maybe i was too fast with updating this time...
Cheers

Sorry little addition:
It s about an external fw hd working with Logic- not in general slow performance.

Mac is much slower since the upgrade to 10.8.3 freezes and opens up slow accompanied by the beach ball

Since leaving snow leopard and Mountain lion to Lion , it has been much much slower and freezes while doing simple internet browsing. a few of my apps won't work since the upgrade. Even when i boot up it takes a long while to log in.

Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Broadband very slow since exchange upgrade

Ever since BT "upgraded" my local exchange a couple of weeks ago, my broadband speed has dropped dramatically.
I'm now only getting around 0.3 mbps, which is ridiculous.
Will this improve at all?
Did the exchange upgrade cause this?
Is there anything I can do?
Thanks.

BlackBerry Q10 bluetooth issues since software upgrade

I have a BBQ10 and a chevy sonic with mylink. UP until Monday night they paired fine everything worked and then I had a software upgrade on my BlackBerry. It installed just fine no issues there. Now when I try to make/receive calls while using bluetooth in the car my phone has to be using speaker. Handset doesn't work, nor does bluetooth. The first time I start car up and the devices pair I can get the bluetooth to ask me "what would u like to do" I can get all the way to connecting to the call. As soon as call is connected it tells me it's going into private mode. This is the point where only the speaker on the phone itself will work. I can not talk via bluetooth or "handset" speaker only or I don't hear people but they hear me. I know it's not an issue with the mylink in car I paired my mum's bold and everything works as it should. Suggestions?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Problem solved. Changed phone name. Deleted pairing between phone and car bluetooth rebooted phone turned car off and back on. Repaired devices and seems to be fine now
