Yahoo email runs very slowly using Windows XP since ~ Sept 15. But IE is fast and I switched back to that.
Using Firefox w/ Yahoo mail started causing extreme usage of hard drive in my Dell Inspiron 2200 and my wife's Dell laptop. We both use up to date XP for home use. I wait for the system to catch up with my not so fast typing. So frustrating that I use IE for this application only.

ITunes just started to run very slowly on windows XP
As of today, iTunes has started to run very slowly, on starting, on selecting a song, on any kind of moving around the interface. I can select a new song, it will play, but it takes about 10 seconds for the rest of the graphics to catch up (i.e. for song info to change, or the speaker icon to move to the next song etc). I cannot control what my virus software is doing (corporate computer locked down) but I can tell you it's been fine until today Wednesday 16 August. Running XP, on a Core Duo new Dell Latitude.
It also takes ages to load now. I tried removing the library, re-installing, updating etc. No avail.
I note that today I just had a big Windows update done.
Dell latitude 620 Windows XP Pro Core DuoAny recent changes to your anti-virus/firewall, anti-spyware, anti-adware or other protection software? (Updates, new versions, etc.)
It sounds like some sort of scanning is going on before these things open.
I started having overall slower computer problems when I downloaded and installed the instant search feature that's part of Office 2007. Once I uninstalled this add-on things started moving along a little faster.
But, if you have a large iTunes library it does take a while to load and open the program--especially if it's not part of your startup routine. The iTunes store page loads are a bit more of a mystery--unless you have a firewall scanning issue causing some interference. -
Yahoo home page and yahoo email is not displaying correctly. It had been working fine until Saturday 9/10. When i load yahoo home page it will display content but some is not clickable and is not displayed correctly. In my email it will show the content on the left side (inbox, drafts etc and along the top (contacts, inbox etc) nothing can be clicked and no emails load or are shown. Facebook will load news feed content but will not display the icons at the left top (notifications, messages etc) they are clickable and work but the images just aren't there. Also not able to play games in facebook. The game loads up to 100% but never finishes. I dont go to many other website but i did check a few and they seem to be fine. May this be a website issue or firefox issue? i am able to use internet explorer to correctly see my email and facebook so assuming its a firefox thing.
Hi

Hello everyone. My Mac is running very slowly when I am using the internet, and especially when on Facebook. The little rainbow globe spins around for ages before changing pages etc. I have done several virus checks etc, but cannot find anything wrong. Sorry, but I am not tech savvy, so have difficulty with these issues.
Thanks for your reply. Well, I am not sure about the OS X version, I just gave that info from the Install DVD. I have the machine on automatic updates so I guess I am using a newer version. I know it is iMac Snow Leopard and I bought it in 2009. It is the 21.5 inch model. That is all I can tell you. I have 499GB and have used only 32GB, so it isn't a space problem.

Sender ID Filter running very slowly
Hi,
I have recently deployed a test Exchange 2013 with the mailbox role and client access roll on Windows server 2012 R2
The test machine is also a DC, DNS server, DHCP Server. I have no edge transport server, the Frontend transport connector, ie SMTP service is being used.
Exchange 2013 has been updated to CU7 and windows server 2012 has all the latest updates installed from windows update.
The problem i am having is the Sender ID filter, installed with the anti-spam configuration, is running very slowly.
If i use the Test-SenderID cmdlet with any external address it can sometimes take minutes to come back with the test result.
However sometimes it comes back quite quickly - its somewhat intermittent. It doesn't matter what 'PurportedResponsibleDomain' i use or IPaddress for the test - the majority of the time its very slow, although occasionally it will come back within a second
with the result, but do the same test again with the same parameters and its back to a minute or 2 again.
This slow response is replicated with a SMTP test via telnet, upon the final '.' to send the email, it can hang for a minute or 2. If i disable the SenderID filter i get the acknowledgement from the SMTP server within a second. This occurs if i telnet direct
from the exchange machine, or from another machine on the network.
Things i have observed:
-After a couple of days from rebooting the server - the SenderID filter suddenly, for apparently no reason, starts responding instantly, with the Test-SenderID cmdlet consistently returing results within a second - ie problem resolved. If i reboot the server
im back to the slow running.
-Internal email is being delivered fast, no delays
-External email is delayed by a minute or 2, confirmed to be caused by the SenderID filter.
Things i have checked:
-DNS configuration looks good, no problems, all Local IP's on the 1 and only adapter have A records. There is a valid MX record, external DNS records for the mail domain are correct. I have put valid SPF records for the dc domain etc.
-No errors in application logs other than the usual suspects from exchange 2013 (a few performance counter errors)
-No DNS errors or warnings in the event logs.
-InternalSMTPServers on the TransportConfig has been set to the IP assigned to the adapter. I have also tried adding all IP's on this adapter (there are 4), and even 127.0.0.1 to this InternalSMTPServers list, but it makes no difference for external
mail or the Test-SenderID cmdlet. It does however speed up a telnet smtp test direct from the exchange machine as the internalSMTPServers list results in a bypass.Hi Gavin,
I notice that there are some performace counter errors from Exchange 2013, sometimes performance issue can cause mailflow delay. Would you like to list some errors without sensitive information for the further troubleshooting?
How about the impact, one user or all users? How about in OWA, does the email from outside delay in OWA?
If you suspect this delay issue caused by Sender ID filter, I suggest disable it for a little while and use a test external account send an email for testing.
If everything goes well without configuring Sender ID filter, it seems an issue on Sender ID filter configuration.
More details on how to configure Sender ID filter as below:

Yosemite running very slowly on new MacBook Pro
I just bought a new 13" MacBook Pro (not Retina) last month. When I set it up I copied the data and apps from my 2006 MacBook running Snow Leopard. When I try to open apps such as Safari or jEdit or Adobe Reader or NeoOffice it seems to wait forever (or at least 30 seconds) to open them. I thought this would be faster than Snow Leopard, but it's not!
Should I just back this all up with my SuperDuper and start over?
Here are my Etrecheck data:

One of the myths that circulate on this site is the myth that the current version of OS X always needs to more than 4 GB of memory to run well. The myth is based on nothing except the fact that some people keep repeating it. Apple is today selling new Macs with 4 GB of memory that can never be upgraded after they leave the factory. Those Macs come with Yosemite preinstalled, and it can never be downgraded to an older version. So if you were to believe the myth, you would also believe that Apple knows that it's selling products that are permanently crippled right out of the box, no matter how they're used. Read this discussion before you spend money on memory that you may not need.
Some users do need more than 4 GB of memory for full performance. They are running memory-intensive applications, such as photo or video editors, or they're running many programs concurrently, or they have more than one account logged in at the same time. Whether you're one of those users can be determined, in part, by observing the level of memory pressure in the Memory tab of the Activity Monitor window. If the memory pressure graph always stays in the green zone, then a shortage of memory is not causing the problem.
Even if memory pressure is high, that doesn't necessarily mean that adding more memory will help. If one or more processes has a memory leak—a kind of bug—then adding memory, no matter how much, won't help. It will merely delay the onset of the problem, perhaps only by a few minutes or less. That is very likely the case if you already have more than 4 GB. -
Hello - I have a white Macbook bought three years ago running Mac OS X 10.4.11 with a 2GHz processor and 1GB SDRAM.
I've been very happy with my purchase and use it mainly for word processing, internet, watching DVDs and email use.
Recently, for no apparant reason, it suddenly began to run very slowly - and I mean slow. It can take 10-15 minutes to open an application.
I have not installed any software or, as far as I know, visited any dodgy websites.
Following some advice from Apple forums I looked at the activity monitor in the utilities folder and this is what I found:
CPU is around 2% used by the user and 2% used by the system with about 96% idle.
System memory is 183MB wired, 184MB active, 255MB inactive, 623MG used.
Disk usage: space utilised 68MB, space free 5.37MB.
Again following advice from Apple forums I created a new user, logged out and logged in again as the new user and the Mac works fine - very quick liked it used to be.
I assume this indicates that the problem isn't with the computer hardware, but with my original user account?
I've tried starting the Mac while holding the Option key down. It seemed to help for a bit and then slowed down again.
I have two CD disks that came with the original documentation - Mac OS X Install Discs 1 and 2.
My question is this - is there any way I can fix the original user account so it runs properly again?
Thanks for any help you can offer.Many thanks to Michael for pointing me in the right direction.
I've made some progress on this and thought it might be useful to detail what I did here in case it proves useful to anyone experiencing the same problems.
Prompted by Michael's suggestion that the hard drive was struggling to cope through lack of space I carried out a thorough spring clean of my files, deleting any that I didn't need any more.
Because the machine was responding so slowly this was a laborious process. It may be worth noting that image, sound and video files are big memory eaters.
I also cleared out the trash.
Then I cleared out the library>cache.
I then started the laptop up in safe mode (holding down the shift key after the start-up tone), which also apparantly deletes some unwanted files.
I then started the machine up normally. Much better, much faster. According to the Activity Monitor the space free on the desk has gone from 5.37MB to about 7.5MB.
What to do next? Some disk maintenance my be in order.
Michael suggests Drive Genius, but as far as I can tell this is only available for more recent operating systems that the one I have on my laptop.
Others have suggested OnyX which is free, but this also appears to be for OS X 6 or later.
I haven't to find suitable versions of these yet, so can't comment on their effectiveness.
But now at least I have a functioning laptop
Thanks -

Why is Firefox taking up a lot of CPU and running very slowly?
For the past week my Firefox (and also Chrome) have been running very slowly. Any time a page loads the CPU column in Task Manager shoots up to between 10-20 when it's usually at 00, and it sends my cpu fans into overdrive until the page is loading.
Pictures load very slowly, and busy pages are even worse, such as Weather channel pages or Gawker blog articles. I've run MSE, Malwarebytes, I've run Firefox in safe mode, nothing is working. I'm really beginning to get frustrated because it's making any kind of browsing at all very unenjoyable.Safe Mode didn't make any difference?
Run all Windows Updates, install all needed service packs, etc.
Update your graphics driver (Firefox uses your graphics card for some rendering, and an out of date graphics card driver can cause problems. [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers].
Update all your plugins (Flash, Java, etc.): [http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/ http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/]. -
My Mac Mini runs very slowly. I upgraded memory but it didn't help. Wi-Fi is very fast with other computers in sae location so I don't think that is the issue. Ideas?
Hi, is it just Wifi that is slow?
If so try this...
Make a New Location, Using network locations in Mac OS X ...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2712
10.5, 10.6, 10.7 & 10.8…
System Preferences>Network, top of window>Locations>Edit Locations, little plus icon, give it a name.
10.5.x/10.6.x/10.7.x/10.8.x instructions...
System Preferences>Network, click on the little gear at the bottom next to the + & - icons, (unlock lock first if locked), choose Set Service Order.
The interface that connects to the Internet should be dragged to the top of the list.
10.4 instructions...
Is that Interface dragged to the top of Network>Show:>Network Port Configurations.
If using Wifi/Airport...
Instead of joining your Network from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed.
For 10.5/10.6/10.7/10.8, System Preferences>Network, unlock the lock if need be, highlight the Interface you use to connect to Internet, click on the advanced button, click on the DNS tab, click on the little plus icon, then add these numbers...
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
(There may be better or faster DNS numbers in your area, but these should be a good test).
Click OK. -
Hi,
SAP runs very slowly, mainly the window-display has a slow-motion effect on Win 7 Home edition 64 bit. Do you have any idea to solve the problem?
Thanks in advanceEmil83,
I agree with Gordon that you should not use win 7 home edition either 64 or 32 bit because it is out of supported os platform for B1. Check it here for more detail:
http://service.sap.com/smb/sbo/platforms
Slow motion could be happened because the system can't load the B1 UI API perfectly. It is also caused by the OS you are using.
Anyway, what SBO version are you using ?
Rgds,

Only Hotmail running very slowly and errors in loading correct page
recently Hotmail havs taken a long time to load pages. Plus when a email is selected page flickers and wrong page displayed.
this is not happening with Yahoo mail. Sometimes error message such as "not responding" or "cannot complete". But only when trying to get hotmailHi Larry,
Thankyou for your reply, this is a partial answer
This server has been running for about 3 years now,
The faults started after I did an service pack update for sharepoint. I then did the manual update but the C drive then started to run very slowly and was giving disk size too low errors so I moved the SUS to a different drive but this hasnt helped. It is
still running painfully slow. Ran SBS BPA and found no faults. However ran Exchange BPA and did find faults which I have now fixed. Still have large number of errors

Why is iTunesU running very slow on Windows 7?
iTunesU is running very slowly on machines using Windows 7 and iTunes 10. It works fine on Windows XP withe iTunes 10. Why is it slow in iTunes 10 and Windows 7?
Yes. It does seem to be specific to 10.2.2 Other versions are working fine. In windows XP 10.2.2 has not given me any problems. But on Windows 7 it appears to be frozen for about 5 minutes then it starts working but it still lags. Are you Apple people going to address this? Is this something that can be fixed with another update?

Equium L10 - Is running very slowly
I have a Toshiba Equium L10 (496MB RAM, 1.5Ghz celeron M Processor, 37.2GB HDD)
It has been running very slowly for a while now and am getting really annoyed with it. It takes like 8 minis for the desktop to load plus a few more mins for the programs to load up. I am fairly ok with computers and things like registry editing etc to some extent.
Please could you help me out as i cannot afford to upgrade my laptop at the moment?
I have tried to uninstall as many of the unwanted programs on the computer and am left with a 23.7GB free hard disk.
It is a bit of an old laptop now but I am trying to get the most possible out of it at the moment so plase help me
Thank youTo be honest I dont know what you want at the moment.
Do you want to upgrade your notebook or you want to make Windows faster?
I dont know what programs you have installed but after you have removed all programs that you dont need you should clean your system using CCleaner.
Furthermore disable all start up programs that you dont need in msconfig and in the start up folder in start menu. Dont forget to defragment your HDD.
In worst case you have to reinstall Windows. Not all Windows problems can be solved without complete new installation.
Last but not least the Equium L10 can be upgraded to 1GB RAM. This can also help you to make Windows faster. -
My desktop is running very slowly
My desktop is running very slowly - any suggestions for a quick temporary fix?
Mac OS X (10.6.8)
If the above is your correct system profile, along w/MichelPM's excellent suggestions, also do the following:
Disconnect all devices from the computer then do the following:
Boot up from your Snow Leopard Install DVD while holding down the "c" key.
Select the language you wish to use, and then choose "Disk Utility" from the menu bar.
Your HD should appear in a panel on the left hand side of the window which opens. Select it and then click on the "repair disk" button in the right hand section of the window.
Once this process has been completed restart your computer and repair permissions directly from Disk Utility.
If Disk Utility is unable to complete the repair, you will need to use a stronger 3rd party utility like DiskWarrior, Techtool PRO (not Deluxe) or Drive Genius.
