Why is my phone slow all of a sudden

Why is my phone doing everything slow all of a sudden

Basic troubleshooting:
1) Quit all open Apps: double-click the Home button. Hold one of the apps in the Switcher bar until they begin to wiggle. tap the red minus in the corner of each app until they are all gone.
2) reset your phone: hold botht eh Home and Sleep buttons for about 10 seconds. If the "Slide to turn off" slider appears, ignore it. Keep holding the buttons until the screen goes black, then the Apple logo appears. (note, this will NOT affect any data on your phone, it;s more like a hard reboot)

Why is my connection slow all of a sudden?

So for the past 4 days I've had really slow internet speeds. I normally have 250kbps download speed but for the past for days I've only been getting 30kbps? I've restarted my laptop. Done a virus scan... even tried fully resetting the modem, but still nothing. It's happening on the main computer in my house too so it's not just my laptop. However last month I did download LOADS infact maybe the most I've ever downloaded... Could they of capped me? When do they stop it?

How do I check the information? Also one more thing I tried using my other router too, but it still had the same speed.

Time Machine backup painfully slow all of a sudden

For some reason my time machine backups have become painfully slow for some reason. They were fine earlier today, then IIRC I booted windows, then booted back into OSX to run a backup. Despite there being only 1 or two changes (files added to the system) time machine began "preparing backup" by going through all the files on my HDD! Now, it is backing up, but at the rate of about 5 Kb/s!
Something is wrong. I've tried deleting the progress file in the backup folder and "resetting" TM by deselecting the backup drive and selecting it again. Nothing worked. Why would TM be so slow all of a sudden?
Has anyone any ideas?

That is a bit suspicious, but not necessarily wrong. Something caused it to think about 16 GB had been changed (it adds 20% for the "padding" in the message).
How are you running Windoze? Is it on a separate partition? If you're running it via virtualization software, with the vm file on an OSX disk but excluded from TM, that's a possible explanation.
105384 files in only 7.2mb? I doubt it...something seems fishy
Those counts are nearly always very high, and sometimes crazy high. There's some indication it's counting all the metadata, extended attributes, etc., as separate files.
If in doubt, boot up from your Install disc and do a +*Repair Disk+* on your boot volume. Then reboot normally and run another backup. That should trigger a "deep traversal," where TM will compare everything on your system with it's backups, to be sure it's got everything it should.

HT4515 why are my text messages all of a sudden in green and do not say delivered?

why are my text messages all of a sudden in green and do not say delivered? Also for the first time since I obtained the phone I went to use the headphones and the insert to headphones is very loose and I can connect for about 10 seconds then nothing, I do believe it is the jack that inserts into the phone or the phone receptacle is bad or the headphone piece that goes into the phone is bad it is not working is the main issues. Thank you

I should also mention we have 2 other iPhone users and 1 Samsung s5 user in my home not having the same problem.

This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to gather information about the state of your computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it on this page. However, you should be cautious about running a program at the instance of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them.
Here's a summary of what you need to do: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait about a minute. Then paste some other text, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in your browser, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign ($) or a percent sign (%). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for your password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator rights.
The test may take up to a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. There is no indication of progress until it's done. Wait for the line "[Process completed]" to appear in the Terminal window. If you don't see that line within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report your results. No harm will be done.
When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." That's because the forum software falsely identifies something in the post as a violation of the terms of use. If that happens, please post the results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

I tried to boot the mac with cmd r and reinstall. However the moment it connects to the internet the mothing happens i let it run for 2.5 hours and the blue bar did not even give me 1% (my internet on my mac air has no problems.
I checked disk utility and checked disk permissions and repair disk. both no problems

My Moms Desktop is running slow all of a sudden...?

My mother is really upset about her Desktop being slow all of a sudden. But her computer had updated something automatically earlier in the day when I was on. I'm not sure what it was exactly. She also said it was working earlier today as well once I left, and then after that she signed off. Once she logged back in it was way slower than normal. Even when I logged in before she got home tonight it took about 5-10 mintues just to startup from logging onto it. She called the Century Link company to tmake sure it wasn't her internet or anything but the guy just hung up on her while he was asking her a lot of questions that she had already done. And we tried re-starting it, and she said she tried to reboot it but the computer didn't even bring up the restore page because it's really slow. And then after that we finally got to restore the computer it still is running really slow. Is there any other way we can fix this?

If the issue began as the result of an update, then use Windows system restore to put the PC back in the state it was in before the update was performed. Choose a system checkpoint dated just before the update.
You have not stated which operating system is installed. that always helps. Gp into thee Control Panel; and click on Programs and features. In the left side of the window select view installed updates to see what was installed and the specific date. Note the date and then go into System restore. Chose the system checkpoint with the same date as the update and then committ to the system restore point. When the PC is restarted it should return to its formerly percieved speed, if the update was indeed the issue. Afterwards turn off automatic updates and set Windows update to check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them . Take control of the updates that your PC receives. Don't let the operating system do that for you automatically.

Why does the view window all of a sudden expand the content of the page I am viewing so that I have to go to "view" and click actual size??

Why does the view window all of a sudden expand the content of the page I am viewing so that I have to go to "view" and click actual size??
Then a few minutes later, it goes back to expanded again, it is driving me crazy. how can I stop this????
Thanks for any help.

There could be a number of reasons, first thing to check is if you are clicking Command + or Command -. The Command 0 keystrokes restore Safari to the actual size. You can also reset Safari by Safari - Reset.

Why is my Macbook Pro slow all of a sudden?

Question repost as the first question posted, only received one answer that did not assist at all, unfortunately.
I have a 2013 Macbook Pro that i purchased earlier this year. My second. First one had 0 problems, ever. I upgraded from 8 to 16gb of RAM, and it was running just as it should. All of a sudden, and without any warning, it has slowed to a snails pace on just about everything. I get the pinwheel of death constantly, it's taking 20-30 minutes to move 1.77GB of data, which used to take under 1 minute. Programs are slow to open, and the stalling is constant. I've read a few forums, and all signs seem to point to the beginning of a HD failure? Can someone please assist?
Sidenote: i went and checked the disc permissions, which did show many errors, all of which, however, i repaired. It started working again fairly well for a day, and is now back to the same level of slow. What could this be? Please help.

Why is my Firefox browser slow all of a sudden?

All of a sudden, my Firefox browser is extremely slow. I did not change anything nor did I download any software.
It takes me some time to go to web pages and such. What can i do?

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

IMac running extremely slow all of a sudden

I have a 1st generation Intel iMac (24", late 2006), which ran fine for three years but all of a sudden slowed to a crawl about a month ago. I upgraded to 3GB of RAM, but didn't see any improvement; I've run the disk utility app on the system install disk and didn't get any problems; I don't see anything in the Activity Monitor that's hogging CPU usage (although iTunes uses about 7% while playing music and 20% while playing video - considerably higher when it loads a new track into RAM); and I have 70GB free on a 300GB hard disk. I realize that this is just scratching the surface, so what else should I be looking at? For what it's worth, yes I have an HP printer, but the drivers don't seem to take up that much CPU time; and I'm still on 10.4.11, so maybe it's just time to upgrade to Snow Leopard; but either way I've been on this system (and with this printer) for a long time, and I don't understand why this would happen all of a sudden...
Thanks!

HI,
70GB free disk space could be at least part of the problem for the disk slowing down.
Try Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk
Check the startup disk for errors that may need repairing.
Insert your install disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
*(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)*
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
Select your start up disk and click Restart
While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window. Where you see Capacity and Available. *Make sure there is always 10% to 15% free disk space*
If you cannot boot from your install disc, try booting in Safe Mode
How to Force Background Maintenance
One way to free up disk space...
Open Console. Select system.log then from the Menu Bar click Reveal in Finder then move that log file to the Trash. These logs can take up as much as a GB.
