Will a more powerful processor increase my GMail and Google Apps speed??

Will a more powerful processor increase my GMail and Google Apps speed??

I take it that you know the processor in the iMac G4 is not upgradeable. It's soldered to the logic board. The 20" iMac G4 had the fastest process of any G4 iMac--1.25Ghz-- so you're maxed out there.
Do "About the Mac.." from the the Apple menu to see how much RAM is installed. Sluggishness can be due to too little RAM.
Sluggish performance can be a too full hard drive. Single click your hard drive's icon then do command i to see the values of Capacity, Available, and Used. the space Available should be no less than 10-15 percent of the vaule under Capacity.
For comparison, I have a G4 tower with a single 1.25Ghz processor and the same bus speed and video RAM you have, and it is not at all sluggish with anything other than Office 2008, which is sluggish all by itself. My G4 has 1.75G RAM and a bunch of free space on the hard drive.

  • Can I read gmail and Google Apps mail?

    hi
    I am yet to upgrade to iOS 4.2 on my iPhone. I have a Gmail and a Google Apps mail account.
    Can I configure iPhone to receive both these emails? If so, when I reply to mails I need it to have respective return email addresses, signatures
    regards
    Mahesh

    I forgot to write that if I read an email on my phone it actually eventually shows as read on my computer, which makes this even more puzzling...!

  • Gmail and Google Apps sync with E72 - problem upda...

    Hi
    On my E72 I have set up two mailaccounts: My private Gmail account and my workmail which is a google apps account. Both work great and I have no problem recieving or sending mails.
    My problem is that the inboxes on my phone do not update: When I recieve a new mail in either mailbox and read this mail on my computer, the same email is still unread on my phone.
    Why is this, and how do I make my phone update properly?
    Thanks!

  • Mail works even worse with Gmail and Google apps after upgrade

    I had good hopes that Apple would solve the mail issues with the 10.9.2 update, but unfortunately it seems that now the synchronization between Gmail/Google apps is completely off.
    After archiving a message in my mail application the message remains in my inbox in Google apps and Gmail.
    When I was using 10.9.1 this was not the case, I only suffered delay in receiving mails and could not manually move a message from my inbox to the all messages box.
    I have Outlook on my Mac, which came with Office, but never configured it.
    Do I really need to start to use that programm?

    Googles version of an IMAP system works poorly with most clients. If you are going to use it then choosing a client that works the way Google wants them too is a wise course.
    Of that breed MailPlane is easily the best, AirMail is a solid second.

  • Safari 5.1.4 broke Gmail AND Google Voice

    Well, this seriously *****. I just updated to Safari 5.1.4 and now Gmail and Google Voice don't function properly. The buttons run away from my mouse and almost nothing is clickable. I

    I am a little confused by the issue, everyone here is stating that if Safari is running in 32-bit mode it does show the rendering problems in Gmail. However, when I check information about Safari in the application folder and can see that I have the option to operate Safari in 32-bit mode rather than 64-bit mode. I know for fact that in SL Safari runs in 64-bit mode by default if your system supports it. This makes me wonder if the people in this forum are having problems with Safari 5.1.4 in their Core Duo or 32-bit EFI only Macs which will not use a 64-bit version of Safari. Can anyone explain further? I am really trying to decide whether I will pull the trigger and update.
    Thanks for any explanation on this...

  • BB 9700 and GMAIL and GOOGLE APS Comapnies sync

    Hello, I bought my BB9700 and i have follow problems now (maybe it is normal but in nokia mail it works well).
    BB and Google Apps account
    I have google apps for my domain. When i tried add my google apps acount like a gmail account then was problem - BB can't find my server (mx records aren't move to google but to another server which move it to google) so i had to wrote name of mail server - imap.gmail.com. Now i can't set sync calendar and contacts via my bis account on blackberry (i can do it in gmail account but not in google for domain account)- of cours i use google sync but there is another problem. In this situation when my domain in google is not like gmail account i have problem with mail synchronization - when i read or send e-mail via webbrowser i can't see it on my BB.
    Is it any option to set this account like gmail account?
    Can anobody help me?

    Nobody from blackberry can't help me?
    You should just change records of my hosted domian in google in your servers to google server.
    I know that i can change MX records - but it's problem when we have a lot of employes and just few of us use blackberry, rest of the mailboxes in domain is in another server.
    So my domain iand servers works that:
    MX record move e-mails to my server XYZ
    My server XYZ check name of mailbox and decide to which server send an e-mail
    If e-mail is to me, server send e-mail to google apps for domain.
    HELP ME.

  • TS3899 Custom Domain of Gmail account(google app for business) greyed out(disabled) in iOS7 mail for no reason.

    Dear guys,
    I have a free/standard version of google app for business with @simmonstaiwan.com.tw as our domain. One of our user's email account one day suddenly cannot access her email account that was already setup in iOS 7 mail app. Only her company gmail acct grey out, her other personal email accounts are working just fine.
    First, I thought it was her iPhone5's issue. Therefore I tried to remove the email account and re-added it back. No work. So I thought maybe it's the custome domain gmail account issue. So, I added her email account to my iPhone4s with iOS7 with correct account name and password. Still not working, the account added successful and is enable, but I just cannot click into or onto that account and see any emails. That account name just greyed out for no reason.
    So, I grab an iPad with iOS6 on it and added that account onto the machine. It worked!! Looks like that email account(gmail) only worked on iOS6 device but not iOS7. May I know maybe what really caused this to occur?
    Any comments or suggestions or thoughts are very welcome and will be helpful for me to debug.
    Best Regards,
    Jay Lin

    You set it up, and you failed to distinguish between the SMTP servers or assign the correct one to your copy of Mail (it doesn't actually know which is which, you need to inform it)
    Open Mail>Preferences>Accounts (NOT Mail>Accounts) and go down to the SMTP server list, choose the correct server for each account then check the box that says 'Use Only This Server' for each account.
    This is not automatic, you get to choose and if you don't then this will result.
    Remove the non functional ones.

  • Safari 4 tabs do not display unread counts for GMail and Google Reader

    To reproduce this, do the following:
    1. Create a bookmark for either GMail or Google Reader
    2. Click on the bookmark under Safari to load either site (make sure it has at least on unread item)
    The text in the tab title will not display the unread count. Instead, it displays either "GMail" or "Google Reader". Firefox displays the unread counts for both sites in the tab's title text as follows: "Gmail - Inbox(2) - <email addr>", "Google Reader (2)".
    This is the one of the main reasons why I will continue to use Firefox over Safari 4. Displaying the unread counts in the tab titles allows me quickly glance at the browser's window with both sites loaded in separate tabs to see if there are any unread items.

    I was able to fix the problem by disabling Gmail Labs (you can always reenable them again).
    http://mail.google.com/mail/?labs=0.
    Or go to Settings-Labs and you'll notice a link at the very top asking you if you want to kill all the labs if it breaks something on gmail...there's an escape hatch.

  • Mac Mail stops recieveing mail with Gmail Accounts and Google Apps

    Hi,
    We're having some chronic issues with our corporate Google Apps / Gmail service when used with Mac Mail. Regardless of the OSX version... when it's not one thing it's another. It's nice to see that 10.9.4 finally correctly inserts the proper, full username in the SMTP field for Google Apps users.
    We still have some problems where users stop receiving mail silently in the middle of their workday. It wouldn't be such an issue, except that Mac Mail pretends nothing is wrong and suddenly the person realizes they are 3 hours behind on their emails. Magically, quitting and re-opening mail resolves the issue. Even more disturbing, is this article on apple support which lists this stupidity as the official workaround
    OS X: New email messages not received until Mail is quit and reopened
    I suppose one could argue that Outlook 2011's integration with gmail accounts is even worse. There's something to be said about "AirMail" being the #2 app in all the appstore currently. Clearly Apple and Google aren't putting their best foot forward to make this work.
    I guess what I'm looking for is something concrete other than "Restart Mail to get mail coming in again". Is there some workaround to see the connection status to see if something is stalled?

  • New GMail sync and Google Apps vs GMail

    Has anyone tried this yet? I'm curious if it will work with Google Apps vs GMail only. I've been out of town lately and haven't had time to play with it any early feedback?
    Thanks!

    It appears to work in the other apps, such as Calendar.

    any advice?

    If it works through the Ethernet port on the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) it probably has nothing to do with the AEBS. There must be something about the configuration of the computer connecting wirelessly.

  • Videos on my iPad are playing 2x. It seems to happen more prominently on videos via Safari and other apps like Fox News. Sometimes I can alter the speed by "scrubbing" through the video, but it is inconsistent. I have an iPad 1 running iOS 5.1.1...thanks!

    Videos on my iPad are running 2x. I have restored every way possible but still no change. The videos are noticeably faster in Safari and other apps like my Fox News app. Sometimes I can change the speed back to normal by "scrubbing" the video, but that is inconsistent. I have an iPad 1 running iOS 5.1.1 ...thanks for any and all help!

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

  • Firefox stops responding during Gmail and Google, why?

    The last few weeks, Firefox 4.1.0, on my XP SP3 system, stops responding while I am sending Gmail, frequently, stopping the transmission. Today, for the first time, it stopped responding while I was searching on Google.
    The LAST thing I want to do is go back to Microsoft's IE.

    Well, clearing cookies and cache over and over does not work.
    Also, Firefox stops working with many sites now and I am tired of closing it down every 3 minutes. So, my solution this morning was to import my bookmarks to Google Chrome and it worked. After using Firefox for many, many years, I will now be using Google Chrome.
