Why is my wifi slow on Windows 7 and not Mountain Lion?

I have Windows 7 installed through boot camp.  I purchased my MacBook Pro new 2012.  When I use wifi in Mountain Lion, it works great.  When I boot into Windows 7 I get SUPER slow speeds.  OSX I get full speed at 60 Mb/s.  Windows I get 1 Mb/s or lower.  I updated OSX, and windows 7.  I have an Samsung SSD 840 Pro and everything is running incredibly fast.  I just need the wifi fixed.  I also purchased an Airport Extreme about 2 months ago, latest version.  Airport Utility is also up to date.  Please help!

Try a different cable. And are you connecting directly to your computer or through a USB hub?

  • Free Upgrade to Mavericks and not Mountain Lion?

    I noticed I have a free upgrade to Mavericks. However, the application I'm using that prompted the search for the upgrade doesn't support Mavericks, I need Mountain Lion and I can't find a free upgrade to it anywhere. My question is; Why do I have a free upgrade to Mavericks and NOT Mountain Lion?
    Thanks much!

    Yeah I noticed it's there for purchase, pretty inexpensive as well $20. But I was just curious as to why the newer version is free and I can't find Mt. Lion for free, and that's the one I need. Maybe I'm not looking in the right place or it's just unavailable?

  • Reminders and Notes Mountain Lion

    Hello,
    How do I sync Reminders and Notes in Mountain Lion with my iPhone ?

    Same issue.
    On my phone I have iCloud calendar and reminders turned on.
    On my computer I have iCloud Reminders turned on as well as Exchange "Calendar & Reminders" turned on.
    The only thing showing up on my computer seem to be task and reminder events being pulled from exchange. And on my iPhone the only thing showing up are items that I composed on the phone. When attempting to add new reminders on either system no syncing occurs.

  • Why does a CD open in Windows and not in my Mac, when in Parallels?

    I might not have the correct forum here but you may be able to help. Every time I put an audio CD into my computer when I have windows open in Parallels, the CD only opens in the virtual windows. Why can't I access the CD in Finder and can I change this?
    Many Thanks
    Andy

    Hi
    I don't use Parallels, but a similar thing happens with Virtual Box. The virtual machine grabs hold of the CD and it disappears from Mac OS X. Most of the time it's what I want, but I guess if I'm playing a CD in OS X and then start up a virtual machine it could be annoying.
    In Virtual Box, there's an option to turn this off so that the virtual machine doesn't see the CD - maybe if you hunt around in Parallels you'll find a similar option.

  • Slow start up and not responding Firefox 3.6.13

    Slow start up and not responding when I open Firefox 3.6.13. As long as 1 minute. I tried in save mode and it doesn't seem to happen. I used McAfee before and now use Norton IS with Real Time Malwarebytes. Still the same speed opening up, so the virus software is not causing the problem I think. I disable a lot of the add-on and still the same problem. Any suggestions?
    Vista OS

    If other softwares runs fast and smooth it's obvious that it's a Firefox-problem.
    Probably because of a corrupt profile.
    I have done a "checklist" you could follow here: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/667207#answer-124643
    Regarding slow start up, it's a common and old problem.
    Not all FF-users experience it as a problem, but I used to belong to them who suffered.
    If your cold start up (the first start after a Windows boot) is really slow, but a warm start (the second time you restart Firefox) is much faster - then I think I can help you.
    Try my own simple solution here: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/762446#answer-119951
    I run on Win 7 64-bit and on Firefox 4.0 betas, but that doesn't matter as it works also on older Windows and Firefox versions.
    Regarding your anti-virus software. I have tried the most of them. The best tradeoff is in my opinion Eset Smart Security (NOD32).

  • Why can I print from my iPhone and not my iPad? I have been able to do it in the past and have tried a hard reset but it can no longer find the printer.

    Why can I print from my iPhone and not my iPad? I have been able to do it in the past. I have tried a hard reset but it still cannot find the printer.

    In addition to rebooting the router and the iPad, I would reset the printer as well. Unplug the printer from power and do the same with the router. Leave the router unplugged for about 30 seconds. Plug the router in first and let it totally start up, plug the printer in again, and then reboot/reset the iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If that doesn't work, you can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. Your WiFi passwords, location services, device preferences all have to be re-entered. You will not lose any data or media whatsoever.

  • From Mac to PC. 3rd gen.iPod shows in Windows and not in iTunes

    3rd Generation iPod version 2.3
    Installing on a PC using Windows XP Home Edition
    My son gave me his old iPod having just bought the newest version. I already own an iPod shuffle and have not had any difficulties. I would mention however that my son used the iPod with his Mac computer.
    My difficulty is that the iPod shows up in Windows and not in iTunes. I just cannot get iTunes to recognize this iPod.
    On the settings on the iPod it states my name, the format is Windows and funnily enough all my playlists have been downloaded but not the tunes.
    I have uninstalled the iPod shuffle and uninstalled, reinstalled the software registering the new iPod to me and have gone through all the points mentioned on the Apple site on http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93716 many times.
    Because I kept getting the balloon “One of the USB Devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and windows does not recognize it” (Even though it appeared in Disk Drives in Device Manager) I have bought and installed a USB 2.0 port PCI card. I really thought this would be the answer. However the usual balloons came up the first time (after having uninstalled and reinstalled the software yet again). The balloons stated that the hardware device has been installed and ready to use. However nothing appears in iTunes. Upon reconnecting the iPod again in whatever port I am still getting the balloon message “USB device attached to this computer has malfunctioned……………………..” All the USB port function properly with other devices (including the iPod shuffle when the software is uninstalled and installed again giving the shuffles details) and on the Device Manager windows they show as working properly. Still on the iPod “do not disconnect” and nothing on the window in iTunes and everytime I plug it in the same old notice comes up.
    Any ideas of a solution would be greatly appreciated.

    No reply from this discussion group but if this helps anyone else it would be good.
    I reformated iPod by right clicking on disk in My Computer and clicking format.
    After many different notices when trying to open I went to http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304996 and followed the instructions.
    The problem was solved and my iPod now appears in iTunes and I am able to sync.

  • TS1363 I'm trying to set up my new ipod nano, it appears in windows and not in itunes- if I reinstall itunes, will the files of other ipod users on the computer be lost?

    I'm trying to up my new Ipod Nano, it appears in Windows and not in Itunes, if I reinstall Itunes, will files previously set up by other Ipod users sharing the computer be lost?

    You said " I sign in but her music list shows up mixed with about 1/3 of mine."
    Sign in where?
    What music list?
    It also sounds like that computer is not authorized for the account. You can only have 5 computers authorized for one account. If yo go to iTunes>Store>View account and then sign in it will tell you how many (but no what computers) are authorized. There is no way to find out what computers are authorized.
    You can deauthorize all computer once a year.
    See:
    iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization

  • Where is CS5 preference to use new window and not tabs?

    Hi,
    I prefer a new window rather than lose screen space to tabs.
    Is there a preference somewhere to open new document in new window and not as a tab?
    Thanks,
    Garrett

    You can use the "Float in window" command (available in Window | Arrange menu) - but this will work once you have created a new doc.

  • HT1338 I need to update to Lion and then Mountain Lion, but I need a CD or other means to update as my internet is too slow and I have a GB limit. Is this possible?

    I need to update to Lion and then Mountain Lion, but I need a CD or other means to update as my internet is too slow and I have a GB limit. Is this possible?

    Thanks for your response. I was told, obviously misinformed, that you needed to dl Lion prior to Mountain Lion, so thanks for clarifying that. I cannot dl from the internet as it is too slow and I have limited GB per month. I know, at one point, you could purchase a jumpdrive with Lion for those of us who have this problem or no internet access. I will check into that via Apple or try to borrow internet service from a friend and move my computer there.
    Thanks again.

    Chicky, I have searched my computer for "iPod Photo Cache" and 51 folders pop up, plus 3 files (iPodInfo.plist, Photo Database and Image DB Temp.tmp). How do I know which to delete and which to keep? The Apple website page tackling this issue doesn't go into any detail. Thanks yet again.
